Ep 215: 11 Must Know Tips to Have the Best Pregnancy, Birth, and Postpartum Experience

In this episode you’re going to learn 11 must-know tips to have the best pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience. As you know, I’ve delivered thousands of babies and I’ll be the first to tell you that you can’t predict how any birth will go. The only predictable thing about birth is that it’s unpredictable.  

BUT….you can absolutely be ready for that unpredictability! I’ve put together a list of tips that everyone having a baby can benefit from. Whether it’s your first or your last, whether you’re giving birth in the hospital, a birth center or at home, whether you have a midwife or a physician, this advice will be super helpful to you!

In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:

-What making the most of your prenatal care looks like

-Why it’s essential to attend all of your prenatal checkups

-What a support system is and how to build one

-Why you need a birth partner who you can communicate with

What are some ways you can bond with your baby (even before they’re born!)

-Why you need to understand that SELF CARE ISN’T SELFISH

-How to manage the inevitable stress that will come with pregnancy, birth, and parenthood
