So in THIS video, I share 3 more things to prep for labor that I would absolutely do as a labor and delivery nurse and mom of four. If you’re looking for birth prep and birth tips and wondering how to prepare for childbirth, these are practical, evidence-informed, and confidence-boosting strategies every new parent and expecting mom should know!

Plus, I dive into red raspberry leaf tea in pregnancy and how it may support your uterus for a positive birth experience.
