COVID changed everything.
Except the courage to bear the miracle of life.
Thirty-Six Stories. One pandemic. Countless moments of strength and hope.
When the world shut down in 2020, expectant mothers faced an unfamiliar and unnerving reality: giving birth in isolation, without family by their side, amid fear and uncertainty. Special Delivery chronicles this unprecedented chapter in modern history through the voices of thirty-six women who experienced pregnancy and childbirth during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Blending rigorous medical insight with deeply human storytelling, Dr. Miriam Sivkin, an obstetrician-gynecologist on the front lines, captures the resilience, courage, and adaptability of women who brought new life into a world in crisis. From virtual prenatal visits and masked labor rooms to stories of unexpected hope and renewal, these intimate narratives reveal how mothers and families found strength, love, and purpose in the face of adversity.
Part oral history, part clinical reflection, Special Delivery is a tribute to the women who endured, the babies born amid global upheaval, and to all who give life, whether to children, to hope, or to community.
