Whether you're getting ready to have your first baby or your tenth, preparing for a new baby always feels like information overload. Birth plans, hospital bags, and what about when we get the baby home? How does anyone survive those first few sleepless weeks??
In this episode, I'm answering four of the most common questions expecting parents ask:
• How do I choose the right childbirth option for me? • Are birthing classes really worth it? • What should I actually pack in my hospital bag? • What's the best way to survive those first few weeks with a newborn?
Drawing on my own experiences as a mom, and backed with a bit of historical research, this talk will give you the peace of mind that there isn't one "right" way to become a parent.
Whether you're weeks away from meeting your baby or simply trying to feel a little more prepared, I hope this conversation leaves you feeling informed, encouraged, and a little less alone.
If you have a question you'd like answered in a future episode, I'd love to hear from you! Send your questions to draftingmotherhoodpod@gmail.com because sometimes the questions we're afraid to ask are the very ones another parent needs to hear.
Let's keep drafting motherhood together, one conversation at a time.
