Liz and Shaina discuss how to prepare physically, mentally, and emotionally for birth. We are very strong advocates for taking a birth class, but there are many other ways to prepare your body and your mind for labor and birth too! Listen to the episode to hear how your preparation during pregnancy can directly affect your birth experience.
