*Protect Birth Choices in Ventura County*

October 2, 2008

On October 4th, you can come and help in protecting birth choices in Ventura county. Ricki Lake will be speaking, and I will have some breast feeding photography at Renee Mandala’s  booth. It will be a fun family event, and I hope to see some of you out there on Saturday! To view some more of my breast feeding photography, please visit Project Got Breastmilk.

Project Got Breastmilk is a collaborative project that my long time friend and fellow photographer, Nicole Hill and I dreamed up a few years ago. I encourage you to view the website to learn more about the project.

-Do you support the idea that pregnancy is not an illness? 
to be treated or medically managed?

who back them up in Ventura County? 
-Do you Believe VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean) 
should be an option for women?
