Childbirth author Lynn M. Griesemer will be featured on PBS's TO THE CONTRARY during the week of October 19th. TO THE CONTRARY, carried on 260 stations across the U.S. is viewed by over 1 million people. The topic will be childbirth / unassisted homebirth.

Lynn recently released the first motivational childbirth CD: YOUR BODY, YOUR BIRTH: SECRETS FOR A SATISFYING AND SUCCESSFUL BIRTH. Endorsed by many prominent people in the childbirth field, this CD may prove to be the most important CD for women in their childbearing years.

"I created this CD because women are not happy with their birth experiences and there is very little encouragement and inspiration for pregnant women. Instead, family and friends focus on two superficial questions: 'When is the due date and do you know what you're having?'"

Visit her website for testimonies, an important audio message and 2 secrets for a safe and successful childbirth experience.

“Unassisted” birth? Crazy! Yes,99% of births are completely
uneventful but in that other 1% you want someone there who knows something about medicine.And there’s no guarantee that *any* delivery won’t fall into that 1%.

“Yes,99% of births are completely

You obviously don’t know squat about current birthing statistics.

99% of unassisted homebirths may be uneventful and perfectly natural, but with the C-section rate in America currently running over 30% (And some birthing professionals believe the numbers are being GROSSLY under reported http://www.naturalfamilyblog.com/archives/001194.html and the statistics fudged) birthing professionals are running roughshod over womens rights of self determination.

Most women do not like their bellies being filleted while giving birth. Just today I posted a story of a mother who just gave birth holistically at home unassisted after doing her own prenatal care. http://www.naturalfamilyblog.com/archives/001201.html

Giving birth this way helped heal and restore her sacred feminine power, after being bullied into the surgical ward for the birth of her first baby.

You know, Gay State Conservative,

I pegged you as a paid shill for big pharma months ago, so it does not surprise me that you are first to come diss this post.

Trolling for pharmaceutical companies at free republic. Sounds like a very boring, pointless endeavor, but I bet you get paid really, really well.

Lynn Griesemer wrote a fabulous, empowering book on unassisted homebirth, which teaches couples how to give birth lovingly at home alone in the sanctity and privacy of their own bedroom....just the way that 99.9% of the human race entered the world over the past six thousand years.

Nothing controversial about that. We mommas are simply claiming our birthright not to be cut to pieces and drugged while we birth our babes. Most freedom lovers understand that this is a sovereignty and freedom from government intrusion issue.

Shill? "Big pharma"? "Sacred feminine power"? My God! I think you're lost.I think you meant to go to "www.wiccan-pagan.com" but wound up at FR instead.

"Sovereignty and freedom from government intrusion"?

(GSC shakes head in stunned amazement)
