Orgasmic Birth: The Best-Kept Secret 

(Reprinted with permission. Journal compilation © 2009, Wiley Periodicals, BIRTH 36:3)

Orgasmic Birth, visual storytelling at its best, is Debra Pascali-Bonaro’s response to the crisis in birth today, with its increasing obstetric medicalization of labor and escalating cesarean section rates. It alternates nine birth stories with commentary by midwives, physicians, and educators.

Filmed in muted, golden tones in serene, darkened rooms, the movie counters the media’s hysterical depictions of birth and the negative birth stories all too commonly heard these days. Read more
