The 36 Week Birth Ready Guide

Nobody hands you a manual. So I wrote one.

56 pages from an active labor and delivery nurse. Seven years at the bedside, thousands of births, all of it written down for you. What's inside:

7 emergency cards to keep on your phone — is this labor, my water broke, baby isn't moving, warning signs, induction, your partner's card, postpartum

What actually tells me you're in labor (it's not 5-1-1)

BRAIN — the one word that gets you through every decision

What your partner says and does when you can't speak for yourself

Every position and which part of your pelvis it opens

What to do the second labor stalls

Epidural, nitrous, GBS, monitoring, induction, pushing — explained like a real person

Your birth preferences and postpartum pages

This is for you if:

You want a vaginal delivery and don't want to leave it to chance
