This week on The Mommy Labor Nurse Podcast, we’re diving into a Q&A episode all about the third trimester! These questions came straight from you on Instagram, and I’m so excited to dig into them with more detail than I can fit in a story slide.

The third trimester can be a wild ride – full of physical changes, emotional shifts, and so many “is this normal?” moments. Whether you're prepping for labor, feeling the nesting urge kick in, or just dealing with discomforts, this episode is here to support you through it all 💪

We’re covering:

• What to expect as labor approaches

• Tips for easing common third-tri symptoms

• How to prep your body and mind for delivery

• Final to-dos before baby arrives

• And lots more real talk + reassurance

Whether this is your first rodeo or your fourth, there’s something here for every mama navigating those final weeks.

This checklist was made by a labor nurse (hi, it’s me!) to help you feel calm, confident, and ready as birth day gets closer.
