"I love Birth Circle! It was great to hear birth stories before the birth of my daughter and now I just love going for the girl talk :)"
--Margarita, Martha Jefferson Hospital birth

"Attending BC helps me hear other birth stories and know it is not the place that
you birth that dictates your experience, it is you as a person that determines your experience."
--Denise

"Birth Circle was there for me both before my VBAC and afterwards as I recovered from my second Cesarean birth. My entire birthing experience was transformed because of the support of the women at Birth Circle."
--Stacey, MJH birth
