What Are The Most Common Questions A Pregnant Mama Will Ask Herself? {REBROADCAST}

Show Notes:

When it comes to labor, we can feel overwhelmed and unsure about what our bodies are doing to prepare for bringing our baby earth-side. I’m going to answer the most common questions about contractions, fluids, and when it’s time to head to your birth place.
