"The Birth Place is the place to be!"
Please check out Christy's website where she explains her position and activism on this extremely important issue. Maternal mortality is rife in many third world countries but unfortunately is also becoming an issue for the USA. Rising cesarean rates, more interventions and less access to quality maternity care. Choosing midwifery care is hands down the safest way I know to get a full-term healthy baby and the healthiest mother possible.
Model Christy Turlington has released this powerful film about the sad state of maternal mortality and its effects. The Birth Place is featured as part of the American side of the story and we are thankful for the visionary work of people like Christy who are bringing the plight of pregnant women, worldwide, to the forefront. Thanks too for your support for what we are doing at The Birth Place.
Jennie will be the screening on the 28th April. View event details.
