In an earlier post I talked about a 20/20 special about Motherhood. I wasn't sure at that time what would be portrayed in the special, but there is now more information on the 20/20 website about it, and it should be interesting! Among the topics that may be covered are: giving birth at home, extreme surrogate mothers, orgasmic births, extended breastfeeding, and more.
The special will air tonight on ABC at 10pm. In my area it will be on at 9pm, so please check your local listings if you are interested in watching it. I'll be recording it and watching it later so I can skip the commercials. I'm not exactly sure what to expect from the special, but I'm interested to see how it will turn out.
I watched it and it was interesting. All the more reason to have a home birth I think. When I think of some hospitals/dr's and how unsupportive they are to mothers and their ability to give birth and know their bodies frustrates me. I still don't know if I want to breastfeed when the kid is five or six though!
