E205. Why The Third Trimester Is Too Late to Prepare for Birth

Why the Third Trimester Is Too Late to Prepare for Birth  With Midwife Pip Most parents wait until the third trimester to start thinking seriously about birth - but what if that’s too late? In this episode, I dive into the real reasons why birth preparation should begin much earlier in pregnancy. From understanding your options to building a support system and practicing evidence-based coping techniques, early prep can mean the difference between a birth that happens to you and one you actively shape. We’ll bust common myths, share insights, and give you a practical timeline for when and how to truly get ready. Whether you're expecting or planning ahead, this is the episode you didn’t know you needed until now.
