Perhgaps it might be helpfull for US women to see Dutch shows about
childbirth. (there are 2 at T this season I think).There are some hospital
births in it, but also unmedicalised outplaced homebirths and homebirths.
Most in a reloaxed atmosphere (the latter two) with womjan who are alert and
know what they are doing.
Perhaps an idea to ask  TV station s to buy such shows?

Warmly greeting,
