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 your birth client decides to have an unassisted birth. There's a question from a doula about what to do when a new mum seems disconnected from her baby. The Doula Dose this week is about running a doula business. We also have a chat about labour simulators. There is, of course, also a lot of general chit-chat about life.
