Summary

In this Mini Q&A episode of the EBB podcast, I will be answering a variety of questions that have recently been asked of us, including:

1. What if my hospital won't let my healthy newborn go home before 48 hours?

2. Are modern ultrasounds better at detecting big babies?

3. What's the maximum time a vacuum can be used during a vacuum assisted delivery?

4. Does EBB have any new resources I should know about?
