Did Meriwether Lewis help deliver Sacajawea's baby?

He helped by giving her some folk medicine (rattle from rattlesnake) According to the article "Several weeks into the Lewis and Clark Expedition, on Feb. 11, 1805, Meriwether Lewis wrote, “This evening Sacagawea was delivered of a fine boy. Mr. Jessaume informed me that a small portion of the rattle of a rattlesnake had never failed to hasten a birth. Having such a rattle, I gave it to him.

Whether this medicine was the cause or not, she had not taken it 10 minutes before the baby was born. € also from other page At Fort Mandan in what is now North Dakota, when the pregnant Sacagawea had a long, difficult labor, Lewis dosed her with a concoction using rattlesnake rattles, and shortly after, she safely delivered the baby.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
