S1 EP23: Estimated due dates: a brief history, pressures surrounding & impact on birth experiences

In this week’s episode join hosts Ellie & Luiza as we talk birthy all about Estimated Due Dates. We discuss a brief history of how they’re calculated, why they’re so heavily relied on, a big discussion about the pressures surrounding estimated due dates & the potential impacts on overall birth experiences. There’s no weekly catch up this week as Ellie’s on her snowscape! But we do throw a brand new something in the boss bitch bin. Our favourite resource on estimated due date comes from Evidence Based Birth and can be found here https://evidencebasedbirth.com/evidence-on-due-dates/#:~:text=The%20researchers%20found%20that%2050,gave%20birth%20by%2041%20weeks.
