Manage episode 455112013 series 3511323
In this episode of Military Birth Talk, EmilieAn shares her experiences as a military spouse, mother, and doula. Her first child was born the day after 9/11. After that birth, she suffered 11 miscarriages, 9 of which she managed at home and 2 of which required D&Cs while her family was PCSing. She then went on to have two more babies. She’s now been a doula for 15 years, and talks about some of the surprising ways that being an uncertified doula actually made caring for her clients easier. We also talk about what makes military families so special, navigating multiple miscarriages and finding answers in the military healthcare system, and holding joy and grief at the same time.
