When Time Stands Still: Resolving Shoulder Dystocia at Home, and the Initiatory Aftermath

from Healing Birth · host Diana Forsell Tayan

Emily shares the story of experiencing the rare event of a shoulder dystocia, while birthing her first baby at home, with a midwife. They were able to safely resolve the dystocia, and her baby was born, but as a precaution they visited the hospital after the birth. What followed was a series of events including encounters with good doctors, one very bad one, and CPS.  This experience initiated Emily into motherhood in an extremely powerful way. At times in the days immediately postpartum, she had to find a strength to protect herself and her daughter, that she didn't know she had.  If you love the show, I would greatly appreciate a review on  Spotify or Apple Podcasts!  Follow me on Instagram @healingbirth Do you have a birth story you'd like to share on the podcast, or would like to otherwise connect?
