In the second episode during Women's History Month, the Ivy Roses discuss how to take control of the birthing process, presenting historical background on the practice of midwifery, the centering of technology in the birthing process and various women-centered options. Dr. Patti Rose shares the two very different experiences of giving birth to her own children as well as some useful books to help in developing your own unique birth plan. Although she is not pregnant herself, Dr. Courtney Rose shares her desires for her future birth plan and how thinking about these things now have helped to align her mind, body and spirit in preparation for pregnancy in the future.
