#21. 21 Helpful Pieces of Labor Advice For First Time Moms
03/07/24 • 49 min
Welcome back to the Labor Room Podcast. Today we are chatting about 21 pieces of labor advice I wish every first time mom knew before going into labor.
Although this labor advice was specifically geared toward first time moms, who isn't looking for a little help when it comes to the hardest thing your body has ever done? I'm sure we can all use this advice no matter how many babies you've had.
Being a pregnant mama for the first time is so exciting! Envisioning what you're baby is going to look like, imagining how sweet his snuggles will be, and looking forward to rocking him lovingly in the nursery you worked so hard to create.
But wait...before all of that we have to actually get him out of our bodies. As a a first time mom, I'll bet you need some really solid pieces of labor advice for first time moms.
Good thing you're here. I'm a labor and delivery nurse and a mom of three. I've got the labor advice you're looking for and then some.
