102 Doula Diaries #3: Doulas Don't Catch Babies-But the 3 times I have & let's get honest about the length of labor

 
 
 

Doula Diaries and the few times I have caught babies!

In this episode I reflect on how we often make birth more complicated than it actually is....and the 3 times in my career the babies came so quickly that I had to help out. I talk about the rare precipitous labor (less than 4 hours) compared to normal long labors around 24 hours for a first time birthing person and 8-14 for a multip. Enjoy! XOXO Heidi
