In this episode of The Homebirth Midwife Podcast, Sarah and
Charli explore the topic of preterm labor, answering common
questions about what it is, how to recognize it, and what the risk
factors may be. They discuss the unique role midwifery care plays
in prevention, offering personalized attention and holistic support
that helps many clients avoid complications. The conversation also
highlights the special considerations for late preterm babies born
at home, including both the challenges and successes they’ve seen
in their practice. With a mix of evidence, experience, and
heartfelt anecdotes, Sarah and Charli reassure families that risk
factors do not define outcomes, and that informed, compassionate
care makes all the difference.
