The May 19 entry recounts one of just two times that Martha called in a doctor to help with a delivery. The other time was November 11, 1785.
. . . . . .

As on May 19, a doctor was present at a delivery Martha presided over on October 10, 1794, but in the latter case the mother and her family called the doctor, not Martha. Investigate that event in-depth in Martha and a Man-Midwife.
