We had an amazing home-birth. Midwife: a.k.a "specialized in birth"! My midwife had 6 years of midwifery education at a state accredited school & 13 continuous yrs as midwife, studied nothing but pregnancy & the birth process, is trained to spot "abnormal" pregnancies - which is only about 5% of all expecting moms, although hospitals would have you think otherwise. They refer all high-risk moms to doctors. If the preg. is "normal" (about 95% of women) it's perfectly safe to have a baby at home!
I think it's funny that people act soooo shocked that she lost weight so fast. lol. I know some people do struggle losing weight, but like she said if you get hardcore about it and focus it can start to drop off pretty quick and for her presonally it was a quick process, some people do lose quickly when they start really trying so I'm surprised everyone seems so shocked. True,some others take longer...but it's just funny that everyone was *gasping*.lol.Her reaction to that was priceless too.lol.
Ricki does a great job of explaining why she chose to give birth at home. I think a lot of people misunderstand home birth and would be encouraged to know more about the facts concerning.
I had a home birth with my second baby and I would certainly describe it as empowering - I learned to trust myself and surrender to my body instead of others. I'm pregnant again and will absolutely have a home birth unless there is a good reason for me to go to the hospital.
rikki lake had breast cancer?, im sry but im late, is she okay? shes so beautiful, i used to love her shows! what ever happen to jenny jones? where is she?
No Ricki has never had Cancer she just potrayed someone who did. I loved that movie, my mom was diagnosed in 2003 and when we watched it together and it truly brang us closer.
It's easy to be overran by these ladies. I'm proud of Ricki for maintaining control. The movie is amazing! I hope it has a huge impact on the womans choice to have a baby the way she decides is best. I hope she inspires people to do their own research! I am so impressed at the way this can appeal to the mainstream and reach so many people! Great work Ricki!
She cut Elisabeth off as well...even though I'm not a fan of Elisabeth's...Barbara's a terrible interviewer. I respect what she's down for journalists everwhere, but she just has no rhythm.
I too have a new kind of respect for Ricki Lake. America truely is behind in advocating the natural and simple processes in life. There is just too much intervention in the name of risk prevention.
yeah she sure is. She has been in loads of films and t dramas. She had the lead role in the original hairspray film. She also sings and dances. She's a brilliant actress

Is that Roland Mouret she's wearing? His dresses are really tough for a woman with a big booty to fit into. Ricki you are my inspiration!
Yeah, the women on the View are nearly unwatchable, they interrupt so frequently!
