Show Notes
Join host Sarah Marie Bilger as she unfolds the late-pregnancy mystery of tightenings that feel like everything and nothing all at once. Through candid stories from her three pregnancies, client births she’s attended, and the honest hum of a newborn co-host in the background, Sarah guides you into the difference between practice contractions, prodromal labor, and the real thing.
Short, clear cues and simple at-home strategies, such as rest, hydration, position changes, breathwork, and when to call your team, are all woven into a comforting narrative that helps you to trust your body. You’ll leave feeling seen, prepared, and ready to read the signals your body is sending as your baby draws nearer.
Listen for practical tools, reassuring stories, and a doula’s perspective that honors every tightening as progress toward meeting your baby, so you can move forward with confidence and calm.
