EP99. Contractions come on quick. The couple rushes to the hospital. They are admitted right away. A few uncomfortable contraction later and she is pushing. After 3-5 screams, the baby pops out and the doctor puts them on the mother's chest. She starts sobbing. Cut to the scene where they are happily walking out of the hospital with their new baby. If only this was reality. The truth is, the overwhelming majority of birth stories do not play out like this. In this episode, Renee discusses the differences between what we see on TV vs. reality. Book recommendation: The Birth Partner by Penny Simkin.
