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.
