What happens at your hospital admission is something to understand ahead of time, so you're not caught off guard when you get to the hospital. I'm excited to have a super-experienced nurse with me to discuss it!
Today's guest is Trish from Labor Nurse Mama.
Trish is a mama of 7 children, ranging in age from 7 years old to 30 years old, including one adopted daughter. She is a long-time labor and delivery RN. She is the creator of Labor Nurse Mama, and host of her new podcast, The Birth Experience with Labor Nurse Mama. Over the years, Trish has developed a reputation for making laboring mamas feel empowered and confident — even if she's not in the labor room with them :)
What's important to Trish is that you have access to the education you need to make informed decisions while you're in labor...Empowered Women will change the birth culture one birth at a time. She has spent many years analyzing the literature and her own experiences in the labor room, and she's come to the conclusion that just two things lead to a successful avoidance of an unwanted birth story: A prepared and educated mama who has proper support during labor! You can find her shaking up the birth world on Instagram, her blog, and inside her new private community membership for mams of all stages.
