[Birth Stories] 5-Day Induction Makes for a Very Confusing and Grueling Birth

Myra Flynn set out to have as few interventions as possible during the birth of her daughter. She tells Adriana Lozada what it was like to stand up for herself–and adapt to the circumstances–during her five days in labor. Listen through to the end for Adriana’s “Two Things to Do: One for You, One for the Rest of Us.” Every week, she selects actions, books, and other resources to further inform your intuition and support others on their birth journeys.
