In this episode of Her Guide, we sit down with Katie to explore what to expect at a 36 week pregnancy appointment, an exciting and significant milestone on the journey to birth. Together, we unpack how to prepare both mentally and physically for labor, the basics of expressing colostrum, what to expect in the early postpartum days, and the tools available for pain relief. Katie also breaks down the 3-step induction process in a clear and supportive way. Whether you're approaching this stage yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers practical insights and empowering encouragement for one of life's most transformative experiences.
