Show Notes Chapter Markers

The Doula Dispensary is a weekly podcast, prescribing a weekly dose of all things doula. Siobhan and Kicki bring you a show which is a bit like sitting down with your mates for a cup of tea... So put the kettle on, sit down and enjoy listening to familiar issues as a working doula, woman and mother.

This week's doula dilemma discusses what to do if the midwife assigned to the client does not look at the doula or acknowledge that the doula is there. There's a question from a doula about how to stay calm and relaxed during the on-call period. The Doula Dose this week is about the doula bag. There's a new feature this week, the Golden Nugget were safe sleeping in discussed. There is, of course, also a lot of general chit-chat about life.
