The only difference between the book and the movie is that the book shows more personal experiences with babies and there mothers, the movie only shows natural normal births. For example there is a part on pg.136 where Peggy notices that the baby isn't coming out when its suppose to come out. In the movie they show natural and fast births. The book shows the same insight where it is trying to show the reader the life of a midwife and how they deal with different situations and how they deal with them. I enjoy reading the book and hearing the stories Peggy tells us through out the book so far. It is also interesting to hear that there are some kids in my class want to do midwife work because of the movie and the book. I was really interested in Spirit Babies and how that works on Pg.126 they talk about Spirit Babies and how every single mother has a Spirit Baby that will be there baby when they get pregnant and I wonder if all midwifes talk about that to the people they take care of.

In some countries almost all births happen in hospital, whereas in other countries home birth is considered the first choice for healthy and otherwise low-risk women. The change to planned hospital birth for low-risk pregnant women in many countries during this century was not supported by good evidence. Planned hospital birth may even increase unnecessary interventions and complications without any benefit for low-risk women. The review found only one small trial, which provided no strong evidence to favour either planned hospital birth or planned home birth for low-risk pregnant women.
