Holistic Pregnancy
Do you self-identify as "crunchy" or holistic? Are you into all things natural wellness, nutrition, pregnancy and birth? Do you like hearing the controversial, unpopular and sometimes "woo-woo" perspectives on these topics?
If so, this is the show for you.
The Holistic Pregnancy podcast is your go-to resource for all things natural pregnancy, birth, motherhood and beyond. This isn't your average, cookie-cutter "what to expect" type of advice, either. This show offers a raw and real, unfiltered perspective on taking responsibility for your health and your family. Join your host, Taylor Shaffer, and her guests as they dive deep into some of the most important topics regarding pregnancy, birth and motherhood. New episodes every Tuesday!
Holistic Pregnancy
What to Do During Weeks 37-42 (Preparing for Homebirth!)
This interview is from episode 217 of the Entering Motherhood podcast where I had the opportunity to chat with Sarah Marie Bilger about preparing for the final weeks of pregnancy, especially for home birth. We cover the hormonal progression before labor, shifting your mindset from doing to allowing, boosting oxytocin through rest and connection, and simple physical practices (gentle movement, Spinning Babies, prenatal bodywork). I also share concrete home-birth logistics: organizing birth supplies, prepping your birth and postpartum space, clear partner instructions, nourishment plans, and essential items to have on hand for the first few days after birth. The episode blends emotional support with actionable advice to help you feel calm, supported, and ready!
