Are you worried about having a big baby and it leading to an induction of labor or perineal tearing?

As a mom of big babies, I was fear mongered in my second pregnancy to do extra testing early on, leading to further intervention… instead of being educated, empowered, and supported to do what was right for me. You won’t want to miss this episode with Bloom Physical Therapy and Wellness!

In this episode we talk about:

  • The myths and truths about big babies during pregnancy and childbirth…
  • Expert insights from physical therapists in supporting women during pregnancy and postpartum…
  • How to navigate common fears and misconceptions around big babies and tearing during childbirth…
  • Practical ways to prepare for childbirth that includes more mindset work than controversial perineal massage…
  • The importance of supporting and informing women throughout their pregnancy to feel confident birthing their baby…
  • …and so much more!
