Birth Prep Tips Every Mom Should Know – Interview With L&D Nurse And Lactation Consultant Lauren

Whether you're preparing for your very first birth or hoping for a smoother experience the second (or third!) time around, this episode is packed with wisdom every mom needs to hear. I sat down with Lauren, a seasoned labor and delivery nurse, lactation consultant, and co-host of the Call Your Mom Friends podcast, to talk all things birth prep. She’s also the creator of the Faith Greater Than Fear Birth Course, and she brings such a grounded, faith-filled approach to supporting women in labor. From practical ways to prepare your body, to what no one tells you about birth positions and breathing, Lauren shares her top tips for feeling confident and capable when the big day comes.

We also dive into the emotional and spiritual side of labor—how fear shows up in the birth space, and what you can do to replace it with trust in your body and your baby. Whether you're aiming for an unmedicated birth, planning for a repeat C-section, or somewhere in between, Lauren’s insights are a breath of fresh air. She’s been in the delivery room for countless births, and her biggest goal is to help women feel more in control, supported, and prepared. Don’t miss this one—especially if you’re looking for encouragement, practical advice, and a reminder that you are so much stronger than you think.

I would love to invite you to my course ⁠Stop Peeing Your Pants , where you can get rid of this problem all together, and become leak-free in 90 days or less! We really shouldn’t have an issue with holding our bladder and there is always a deeper cause. For example, when I was dealing with urge incontinence, my root cause was the food/drinks that were in my diet because there were so many bladder irritants I was consuming. I lead you through all of this, the education, workouts, and have a plan on a calendar, a 1:1 session with me, private facebook group for Q & A’s! Check out both tier options below!
