EP 110:

You’ve made it to 35 weeks—congrats, mama! 🎉 But here’s the deal… everyone tells you about the swelling, the waddling, and the endless bathroom trips. What they don’t tell you? The science-backed changes happening in your body and brain right now that can completely change how you experience birth.

In this episode, I’m breaking down:

  •  The surprising way your brain rewires at 35 weeks (hello, “mom brain” with a purpose)
  •  The hormone nicknamed “nature’s epidural” that ramps up before labor
  •  Weird but normal late pregnancy symptoms no one prepares you for (like carpal tunnel + vision changes)
  •  How your baby actually helps trigger labor when they’re ready
  •  Fresh prep hacks you can start now to make birth smoother

If you’re in the home stretch and feeling all the feels, this episode will give you confidence, clarity, and some serious “oh wow, why didn’t anyone tell me that?” moments.
