Birth Matters! is creating a BIRTH book, a scrapbook of birth experiences to
share with expectant parents and the community. You are invited to create a
12" X 12" page of each of your birth experiences to place in the book.
All you need to bring are pictures from your experience-- We will provide
everything else (paper, stickers, funky scissors, paper cutters and shapes,
etc.) We also have paper for you to write out your thoughts on your birth
for the page. Or you can print it out on your computer and bring it in to
place on your page. Remember--everything needs to fit on a 12" X 12" page
so make sure that your 'story' or memories will fit on the page with your
pictures. You certainly can bring your own paper and supplies if you are
already into scrapping!
Ideas to include are favorite and/or inspirational quotes, what was
challenging about your birth and how you faced it, what support (or lack of
it) meant to you, what you learned from giving birth, etc. Keep in mind
that this is a BIRTH book, not a baby book.
