There is so much to think about when it comes to preparing for birth and labour, but are food and drinks something you've considered before? If you're feeling confused and unsure about what things can help with your endurance during labour - this episode is for you! In this episode, we break down why it's helpful to think about your food and drinks, what to snacks to pack in your hospital bag and what to avoid.

We also share personally what happened in our labours too and share some of the mistakes we made, so you can learn from them.
