So many women experience birth, and yet each birth is unique. This program follows eight women giving birth in a variety of circumstances—natural birth at home and in the hospital, twins delivered by Cesarean under epidural anesthesia, induced labor with vaginal delivery, water birth in the hospital. The mothers range in age from 27 to 45. No attempt is made to promote one method in favor of another, and all births are seen as a triumph. The program provides both explicit footage of childbirth and commentaries by mothers, fathers, midwives, and obstetricians. (70 minutes)
