IDAHO FALLS Earlier this year, a woman named Katie Clay unexpectedly went into labor and gave birth to a healthy baby boy in a parking lot. At first, the emergency seemed like it had ended and ended happily. But then, the woman continued to feel labor pains.
Alarmed, she and her mother drove to the birthing center where Clay, much to everyone’s surprise, delivered a second baby. Another boy. She had never known she was pregnant with twins, or that her pregnancy was high-risk.
In east Idaho, pregnant women have multiple birthing plan options. They can choose to see an OBGYN, or, like Clay, opt for what she called the “old-fashioned” way and select a midwife instead.
