Description

This week on The Mommy Labor Nurse Podcast, we're chatting about labor signs – but not the obvious ones like contractions or water breaking. We're talking about the weird, lesser-known signs that your body might be getting ready for labor 👀

Because if you've ever found yourself googling, "Is ___ a sign of labor?"...you're so not alone.

In this episode, I'm sharing:

  • The most common (but surprising!) symptoms I see before labor begins

  • Why it's totally normal to feel hyper-aware of every body change in the final weeks

  • What to actually pay attention to as you approach labor day

Whether you're 36 weeks or just curious about what's coming, this episode will help you feel more in tune with your body and what it's trying to tell you 💛
