Michelle-Nicholle Calareso: I am very excited to discuss how to take the anxiety out of preparing for birth and labor. I also want to thank Tiffani for putting together this educational site and service. Thank you Tiffani, for allowing me to be a part of the Pampered Pregger and Beyond chat series.
Tiffani Lawton: My pleasure!
Michelle-Nicholle Calareso: As a doula and a mother I have found that preparing for labor and delivery can be extremely stressful for a majority of expectant parents. There are dozens of books, movies and media sources giving a myriad of opinions on how to labor. There are numerous childbirth preparation classes ranging from Lamaze to HypnoBirthing to chose from. It can be daunting. Not to mention the information that we receive from family members and friends. I hope that this chat will help narrow down all of the choices. Tonight we will discuss how to assemble the birth team for you, birth plans, childbirth preparation class, books that I love, and what to prepare now for the postpartum period. Let's start with the birth team.
