Best podcasts for learning about birth
In my third trimester now and I can feel my brain starting to shift to thinking about how I’m going to get this baby out 🤣
As it’s my second baby - time & money factors mean I’m not going to do another full-on birthing course, but I thought podcasts would be a good way to get my brain and body in gear.
Naturally - I asked the Nugget community for their favourite podcasts to listen to about pregnancy & birth. Here’s what they suggested were great listens 🎧
I’ve provided spotify links to all of these - soz if you are an Apple music gal!!
