After the recent release of the Netflix movie, Pieces of a Woman, Gina and Nedra decided we simply had to watch it and discuss on Mod Midwives. Whenever a loss in a home birth is portrayed, we are always worried about the optics.

We also spend a shorter time discussing Midwives, by Chris Bohjalian, Call the Midwife, and Virgin River, a new Netflix series.
Fair warning: there are a TON of spoilers in this podcast.
