Laurel Thatcher Ulrich book A Midwife’s Tale: The Life of Martha Ballard, Based on Her Diary, 1785-1812 is a book that shows reader a different side of history that most have never seen before. Laurel Thatcher Ulrich wrote the book based on the diary Martha Ballard kept from 1785 through 1812. Although there are several documents that exist today showing the history of families and how they lived in the late 1700’s, few documents show their private lives and even fewer from the point from the midwives. For this reason, Laurel Ulrich wanted to write a book about Martha Ballard’s diary and wanted to embrace the midwifes role in the household by showing the reader the wide range of skills and tasks that each wife carry’s on to support the family. Not only was the midwifes role to cook, clean, and raise the children but to also manage the garden, health, and livestock for the family. Although Laurel Ulrich was unable to include all of the passages in the diary, she did transcribe ten of the longest passages…

In Martha’s diary, Colonial American life was dominated by religion, agriculture, trading, gender roles, and medicine. Martha Ballard’s Diary illustrates that midwives played an important role as medical healers in colonial America because they delivered babies and provided medical treatments.…
A doula is a professional trained in childbirth who provides emotional, physical and informational support to the mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula’s purpose is to help women have a safe, memorable and empowering birthing experience because she recognizes birth as a key experience the mother will remember all her life. The doula understands the physiology of birth and the emotional needs of a woman in labor. She assists the woman in preparing for and carrying out her plans for birth. Stays with the woman throughout the labor and facilitates communication between the laboring woman, her partner and her clinical care providers. The doula does not take away from the partner’s role, she allows the woman's partner to participate at his/her comfort level.…
Some of the doulas had the opportunity to get to know the mother and partner’s birth plan, needs, and preferences prenatally. Research shows the doula care is most successful when it is given before, during and after labor (Scott, Klaus & Klaus, 2009). Higher-level doula care leads to less interventions during labor, thus a reduction in cesarean births. I recommended that the review distinguish and compare studies that involve prenatal doula support and those that do not. This would yield evidence that would allow medical professionals to recognize the best practice, recommend doula support to laboring women as a way to reduce cesarean births and other negative birthing…
Gaby Rodriguez’s The Pregnancy Project is a memoir that focuses on the high rate of unexpected teen pregnancies in low income, poverty-ridden areas. Rodriguez’s personal experiences with teen pregnancies through her family inspired her to encourage a change. Her mother and her siblings each became a teen parent, and Rodriguez became a witness to the hardships and struggles faced when teens experience an unintended pregnancy, and struggle to financially support their child(ren), often due to being unable to continue their education. Rodriguez, although many - including her siblings - believe she will make the same mistakes as her family, does not want to be seen as “... just another pregnant teen statistic with no future”…

The film A Midwife’s Tale follows the story of Mary Ballard, a mother and midwife in the wilds of post American Revolution Maine. Her diary touches on many subjects such as, premarital sex, trials and tribulations of a working woman in this period, and family. As a rule the film remains faithful to the time period in visual story. It is very difficult to pin down the historical inaccuracies within the film as the story is a dramatization of an actual diary from the woman whom actually experienced the time period.…
