In this episode, Jessy and Rebekah sit down and have a conversation with super-doula Bonnie Silva! We talked about placentas, we talked about cost structure, we talked about Serena Williams. And it was really cool to compare and contrast her feelings about it with what Bree Mahoney said in an earlier episode. It goes to show, there is a doula for everyone but not everyone needs the same doula. And make sure to stick around until the end when Rebekah will tell you a super fun fact about hermit crabs that will improve your life 1000%. 01:20: Seriously, check us out on glow.fm/welcometomyvagina because we really will turn your money into more awesome content AND ALSO glow has been so incredibly supportive with all the garbage censorship that we have faced over the past almost 2 (!!!) years so…yeah. They’re rad. 02:20: Myrrh is a gum or resin that is extracted from a specific genus of flowering plants that has been used throughout the ages as a perfume, incense or medicine. It can also be mixed with wine and ingested. Don’t mind if we do. 07:30: Check out Lindsey Bliss’ Instagram and all the cool stuff she does with Carriage House Birth, the spot where Bonnie started her doula journey! 14:00: Check out all the amazing work done by Jenny Silva who is a doula and traditional birth worker out in California. 15:00: In Germany, the Hebamme, or midwife, will visit the mother at their home for a few weeks after birth to check on the recovery process, help with umbilical chord care, check that the baby is growing at a healthy rate, help with questions surrounding breastfeeding, help the mom with some important post-birth exercises and so much more. 15:45: Read this article by Serena Williams concerning her near-death experience when giving birth to her daughter, Olympia. 22:45: The statement is “One rotten apple spoils the barrel.” You’re welcome. 24:45: Here is a 2017 article from The Guardian covering instances in which Staten Island University Hospital here in NYC performed procedures without the consent of the woman. 39:00 Remember Bree?
