17 - Variations of Normal in Labor
In this week’s episode of The Birth & Baby Podcast, I sit down with doula Ann Morris and talk all about the variations of normal in labor. These are things that some people can automatically assume are emergencies when in reality, they’re just things that are a little not normal, but not emergencies.
Here’s what we’ll dive into:
✨ Pre-labor rupture of membranes (or when your water breaks but you don’t feel any contractions yet) and wtf to do about it.
✨ Breech presenting babies and how you can get that baby flipped into the optimal position.
✨ Long labors and why we both agree that putting women on clocks in labor is dumb af.
✨ Meconium and why it’s really not as scary as you may think.
✨ So much more!
