32- The Importance of Continuous Support in Labor
Show notes:
Esther Kimani and I talk about the proven benefits of having continuous support during labor – particularly the support of a trained doula. We also talk about ways husbands and other support people can prepare to be better support for mama during the vulnerable and transformational time of childbirth.
