In this episode of The Homebirth Midwife Podcast, Sarah and Charli explore the topic of preterm labor, answering common questions about what it is, how to recognize it, and what the risk factors may be. They discuss the unique role midwifery care plays in prevention, offering personalized attention and holistic support that helps many clients avoid complications. The conversation also highlights the special considerations for late preterm babies born at home, including both the challenges and successes they've seen in their practice. With a mix of evidence, experience, and heartfelt anecdotes, Sarah and Charli reassure families that risk factors do not define outcomes, and that informed, compassionate care makes all the difference.
