Ready for an adventure-filled reunion? Join Marissa and Bridget as they recount the highs and lows of their recent travels and delve into the art of preparing for childbirth. From a turbulent flight from Manchester to JFK that tested Bridget's patience to the nuances of traveling while pregnant, this episode kicks off with a bang. Curious about inducing labor naturally? We've got you covered with insights on feet reflexology, the "seduction induction" technique, and other effective methods. Bridget, drawing from her expertise as an obstetrician, shares invaluable advice while reflecting on her own pregnancy journey.
Switching gears, we dive into an honest review of the movie "Babes" on Amazon Prime. This film provides a gritty yet heartwarming look at the trials and tribulations of pregnancy, childbirth, and friendship. We'll share our own labor preparation tips—nipple stimulation, eating dates, and sipping raspberry leaf tea—along with personal anecdotes that will leave you both informed and entertained. Marissa and Bridget's professional insights paired with relatable experiences offer a comprehensive guide for expectant mothers nearing full term.
As the episode unfolds, we reminisce about childhood mischief, humorously recounting a tale of a nine-year-old pulling out her own tooth. We then shift focus to first-time mom packing tips, where Marissa humorously reflects on her meticulous hospital bag preparations. Finally, we tackle the evolution of parenting and the practicalities of modern family vehicles, all while navigating the pressures of social media.
