Expecting mothers have lots of birth options available today. In this episode, we talk with Sarah Perry, an experienced doula, about what a doula can offer before, during, and after childbirth. Why would an expecting mom consider using a doula? In this heartfelt and funny conversation, we compare and contrast birth stories of the past with the kinds of choices new moms now have.
Placenta Previa is a relatively common condition that affects approximately 2/100 pregnant people - including our very own Dr. Alicia who experienced it in both of her pregnancies!
Things that may cause Placenta Previa in pregnant people include:

Tune it to today’s podcast to learn more about who it may affect, how it may affect you, and what treatments are available should you experience it.
