Couples Birth Circle

Posted in: Birth, Charlottesville Midwifery, Parenting, Uncategorized|January 13, 20091 Comment

The monthly Birth Circle meetings sponsored by Birth Matters Charlottesville have become incredibly popular in the midwifery community.  These informal gatherings generally involve birth stories, resources sharing, and building connections among expecting and new moms in the Charlottesville area.  The group is not midwife or home birth exclusive. In fact, the compelling nature of the group comes from the respect of all perspectives on birth choices and options.

The gathering is girl heavy.  And at the request of a few regulars who want to bring their guys for a fun night out, Birth Matters is sponsoring a Couples Birth Circle on January 23 at 7pm at the Body Mind Spirit yoga studio at 923 Preston Ave in the Preston Plaza (next door to Integral Yoga Natural Foods). 

Can’t wait to hear how it goes!
