In this heartfelt birth story episode, my guest opens up about her journey through secondary infertility – the challenges, the emotions, and ultimately, the joy of welcoming her new baby.

You’ll hear about the ups and downs of trying to conceive again, how her pregnancy unfolded, and the details of her birth experience.

If you’ve walked a similar road or love hearing real, unfiltered birth stories, this one will inspire and remind you that you’re never alone in your journey.

Ever wonder how you can help your little one start building language skills from the very beginning?

In this episode, I’m joined by The Speech Sisters, two speech-language pathologists and moms who are passionate about helping parents support their baby’s communication journey.

We’re chatting about what’s normal in those early months, how to spot red flags, and easy ways to make everyday moments language-rich.

Whether your baby is in your belly, cooing, babbling, or starting to say words, you’ll walk away with practical tips you can use right away!

This week on The Mommy Labor Nurse Podcast, we’re diving into a Q&A episode all about the third trimester! These questions came straight from you on Instagram, and I’m so excited to dig into them with more detail than I can fit in a story slide.

The third trimester can be a wild ride – full of physical changes, emotional shifts, and so many “is this normal?” moments. Whether you're prepping for labor, feeling the nesting urge kick in, or just dealing with discomforts, this episode is here to support you through it all 💪

We’re covering:

• What to expect as labor approaches

• Tips for easing common third-tri symptoms

• How to prep your body and mind for delivery

• Final to-dos before baby arrives

• And lots more real talk + reassurance

Whether this is your first rodeo or your fourth, there’s something here for every mama navigating those final weeks.

This checklist was made by a labor nurse (hi, it’s me!) to help you feel calm, confident, and ready as birth day gets closer.
