Childbirth is more than just a one time event. This collection of short stories explores the deep impact pregnancy and childbirth have on our emotions and parenting. Over 100 mothers shared their experiences with pregnancy, childbirth, NICU, grief, loss and postpartum through anonymous surveys and interviews. The author ends the book by sharing her own unique stories with two breech babies and what inspired her to become a doula. Every story is different and has its own valuable lesson.
