One thing we didn't mention in the podcast was that even if you schedule one person's due date each week, there is no way to predict when people will deliver (with a 5 week window of "full term"), and, consequently, no way to avoid the possibility of births overlapping--even with one person due per month. However, the more clients you have due, the more likely it is that this can happen. So, backup considerations must be factored into your client load as well. We also talk about a variety of other considerations: impacts on your family, planning vacations, how much is too little, etc., etc., etc. There is a lot to consider when planning your workload in an unplannable field! We hope you enjoy this week's episode! You can also find it on our blog: https://metromidwifery.com/?p=3953
