Mother’s intuition is often misunderstood — dismissed as anxiety, overthinking, or emotion — yet it plays a powerful role in pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and motherhood.

In this episode of the Mom2Mom Podcast, we talk about what mother’s intuition really is, how it shows up in the body and nervous system, and why it deserves a seat at the table alongside medical guidance. We share real birth room stories, practical ways to listen to your intuition, and how trusting yourself can shape your confidence as a mother long after birth.

Whether you’re pregnant, newly postpartum, or deep into motherhood, this episode is an invitation to slow down, check in, and remember that you know your body and your baby best.

The birth ball is one of the simplest—and most effective—tools we use as doulas to support comfort, movement, and confidence during labor.

In this episode, we break down why the birth ball matters, how it supports active movement and pelvic mobility, and the real-life ways we guide clients to use it during early labor, active labor, and transition. We talk through common birth ball positions, partner support, and how rhythmic movement can help labor feel more manageable—both physically and emotionally.

We also share how we teach these positions visually through our podcast and YouTube resources, so you’re not trying to figure it out in the moment. Whether you’re pregnant, preparing for birth, or supporting someone through labor, this episode offers practical, grounded guidance you can actually use.

This conversation is about options, support, and trusting your body—with tools that work with you, not against you.

See the Blog for all the positions on the birth ball we recommend!

Childbirth education is one of the most common topics we get asked about—and also one of the most confusing.

In this episode, we’re breaking down what childbirth education actually is, why so many classes sound the same, and how to choose a course that truly supports your birth—not someone else’s version of it.

We talk through the different types of classes (hospital-based, virtual, on-demand, method-based), what a solid childbirth education course should include, and the green flags and red flags to watch for as you’re deciding.

This conversation isn’t about checking a box or chasing a “perfect” birth. It’s about building a foundation—so you feel informed, steady, and supported no matter how your birth unfolds.

If you’ve been wondering:

• Do I really need a childbirth class?
• How do I know which one is right for me?
• What actually matters when preparing for birth?

You’re in the right place. You don’t need all the information.
You just need the right information—for you.
