What is Birth Time?
Birth Time is a documentary that takes a look at the Australian maternity system and the fact that 1 in 3 women report their birth as traumatic.
The first time I watched Birth Time I experienced a roller coaster of emotions, I felt sadness for the stories women were sharing, I got angry at the system,I cried tears of happiness and joy watching women birthing in their power, and I walked away with my passion for birth education roaring.
So much so, that I organised a second screening in Bunbury so more people could watch this incredible documentary.
The creators of Birth Time chose the cicada to be there symbol after a swarm of cicadas passed while filming, and they were so loud they could not hear each other speak and then their motto was born.
" Individually it can be difficult for our voices to be heard,
but together we can be deafening."
