This week, let’s talk about a situation I hope you never need but should definitely know – how to deliver a baby at home. Better to be prepared, right?!

Listen in as I explore the 10 steps to delivering a baby. From recognizing when it’s time to head to the hospital to handling emergency situations, I’ve got you covered.

This practical guide is designed to empower you with the knowledge you might need in unforeseen circumstances – because, let’s face it, life is unpredictable!!

And if you want to hear a wild birth story where this might have come in handy, listen to Tess’s Precipitous Birth Story back in episode 93!

A peek at the questions we cover:

  • What are the signs of true labor?
  • How do I know when it’s time to go to the hospital?
  • What should I do if I think my baby’s coming but I’m not at the hospital yet?
  • What items around the house should I collect to ensure a safe delivery?
  • How will I know when it’s time to push?
  • How do I make sure my baby comes out safely?
  • What should I immediately do after birth? What if there is an emergency with me or my baby?
  • How can I stimulate my baby to take their first breath?
