They need to feel at peace. Like, was I wrong? Did I take a risk and risk my baby? Was that my pride? Was that my ego? Or was I following the healthy course of action? They're looking at every angle to see if they did right by their baby and if others did right by them. Hi, ladies. Thanks so much for all you do. I love your podcast, and I learn so much for it.

I have a question about water birth.

So at a prenatal appointment, I asked with the midwives in my practice what she thought about it,

and she told me she doesn't recommend it.

When I asked her why, she said, babies are not dolphins.

And then she explained that she's seen babies in water births try to take a breath before they actually came up out of the water.

Hi, everybody.

I'm a birth with Wonderprint International.

And that, my friends, is impossible.

Uh-huh.

Let's feed your baby to sleep.

You don't need to put time.

The stupid wake window after feeding before they go to sleep is, in my opinion,

dumb. You know what? You've said stupid three times in this episode and dumb once. I don't know

what's gotten into you, but you're finally letting your hair down now in season seven.

It's the seven-year cycle. You don't know what you're going to get this year.

I'm Cynthia Overgard, birth educator, advocate for informed consent, and postpartum

support specialist.

And I'm Tresha Ludwig, certified nurse midwife and international board certified lactation

consultant.

And this is the Down to Birth Show.

Childbirth is something we're made to do.
