More Business of Being Born Screening and Panel Discussion

The Uma Center is hosting a film from the "More Business of Being Born" series at the Kenworthy Theatre in Moscow on April 17th beginning at 6:30PM. The Event is Sponsored by The Uma Center, Motherwise Midwifery and the Palouse Doula Association.

The film is Special Deliveries: Celebrity Mothers Talk Straight on Birth. Featuring celebrity moms Laila Ali, Gisele Bundchen, Cindy Crawford, Alyson Hannigan, Melissa Joan Hart, Kellie Martin, Alanis Morissette, Christy Turlington-Burns and Kimberly Williams-Paisley, Special Deliveries is a collection of intimate birth stories from a diverse group of mothers. Whether they chose to deliver at a hospital, home or birthing center, these heartfelt and humorous testimonies speak to the lasting power of the birth experience.  True inspiration for any mother-to-be, this group of women trusted their bodies and intuitions, taking responsibility for their birth decisions even when things didn’t go according to plan. None of these courageous women has ever spoken on the record in such compelling detail, and, on this DVD, the filmmakers weave together their passionate narratives as a celebration of the journey to motherhood that will leave viewers with a renewed sense of amazement about the power of women.

Following the film there will be a panel discussion and question and answer period with local physicians, midwives, doulas and other birthworkers.

The Uma Center is a non-profit organization dedicated to Nurturing the Nurturer and Celebrating Birth.
