In this episode, I’m sharing why I’ve chosen to keep my due date private during pregnancy—and why you might want to consider it too. From protecting your privacy to reducing pressure as the big day approaches, keeping your due date to yourself can bring more peace and patience in those final weeks.
I’ll talk about how this decision has helped me enjoy a more calm and intentional pregnancy, and how you can confidently navigate conversations without oversharing.
Whether you’re expecting your first baby or your fifth, this episode is full of gentle encouragement and practical tips for creating healthy boundaries during pregnancy.
