What is happening to the "miracle of birth"?

4 million women give birth in America each year ... most often in hospitals, where (amazingly) the majority of babies are born Monday through Friday.  A C-section takes only half an hour to perform ... while labor can last over 18 hours ... Does the "C" stand for convenience?

Then there's FEAR ...

Men and women alike believe childbirth is very, very painful.  Is the medical profession promoting this idea?  In fact, the "love hormone" oxytocin produced by birthing mothers gets them through the pain ... and creates that crucial bond between mother and child.   Hospitals routinely administer Pitocin (artificial oxytocin) as a way to speed up labor, a drug that can cause complications.  Would you put your baby at risk for the sake of CONVENIENCE?

Though made as a comedy, this film had a short run in theaters and just may reveal what lies behind the scenes in the tobacco industry ...
