The movie Baby Drama will take you through the pressure and trauma that the average woman faces because of childlessness.

Some of these pressures are self-imposed because you bend to the whims of popular opinions or peer pressure. A popular opinion could be categorized under family pressure.

Patterns like these see women give in to all manner of things all in the bid to have a child. Family plays a major role in helping our women. If they get support in these situations, it helps them balance the equation and not be swayed by the desire to please other people.

It is a two-way street, but the woman is always to blame. What about the man? he also has a part to play in making it work. Overall, He says he believe Baby Drama will help in both highlighting these issues and educating people about how to handle them.
