The first days after giving birth

What happens after you have a baby in those first hours days and weeks?

This podcast was originally recorded as an Insta Live on January 4th 2003 and in it I talk about those first hours in hospital; who takes care of you, what happens and what procedures and interventions you might be offered. Then those first days in hospital how and from whom you get your care and what you are entitled to, and then those first days and weeks at home.

For people having given birth at home I talk about how that continuum develops and how your care transitions from midwife to PHN and GP

If you feel called to work with new parents in those early days and weeks of the postnatal period then maybe my postnatal doula training is for you?
