It's slightly tricky as, as mentioned, I do believe it intended to do the right thing. I've spent a long time thinking about how I was going to word my review, much longer than I usually would at least. None of the other cast members stick out in my memory, though none produce anything negative. For what it's worth, I will say I respect the performance of lead Fathia Youssouf (Amy) - I felt a fair amount of emotion from her at certain points. For example, they could've zoomed away at particular points or got an extreme close up of the characters' eyes when they were doing sexualised things. More should've been left for the viewer to work out, as opposed to shoving it into our faces and therefore practically doing what they are criticising. There are scenes and/or camera angles that simply should not have been filmed and shown. The message, which does become clear at the end, is to stop the exploitation of children - yet here they are doing just that. With that said, 'Cuties' goes about it in entirely the wrong way. There are undoubtedly minors being exposed to similar themes to that of the film, so it's imperative that people - particularly parents - are made aware of this. I'll start off by saying I do believe the intentions of the filmmakers were positive. Narrator: Sometimes your body needs a little jumpstart to kick into labor.Right intentions, but rather awful execution. Today, Cheryl – 39 weeks pregnant – has arrived for her scheduled induction at Abington Memorial Hospital, in Abington, Pennsylvania. There are many forms of induction but all have the same goal, says Dr. Richard Carapellotti, Cheryl's obstetrician.ĭr.
Carapellotti: We actually induce contractions. Contractions hopefully will cause cervical dilatation. Narrator: Your doctor or midwife may choose to induce your labor for a number of reasons: As the cervix dilates, the labor progresses and ultimately the baby's delivered vaginally. You are a week or more past your due date, and you show no or slow signs of cervical dilation and labor. Your water breaks, but your labor doesn't start. Or you or your baby face medical issues that pose a health threat, which is the case for Cheryl.Ĭheryl has an antibody in her blood that could harm her baby, so the induction is a precautionary measure to help avoid any problems. There are a number of methods available to medically induce or ripen the cervix to get your labor moving.
If your labor needs to be induced, you may be treated with one or more of the following in the hospital:Ī foley catheter. Your practitioner may insert a tube with a very small, uninflated balloon at the tip into the opening of your cervix, demonstrated here with this curled-up hand. The balloon is then inflated, which puts pressure on your cervix and amniotic sac.
