E62: What’s it like to give birth in the US? How does the maternity system differ from here in Australia? A chat with Labour & Delivery Nurse, Liesel

In this episode, host Beth is joined by the incredible Liesel, who you may know by her Instagram handle, @mommy.labornurse Liesel is not only an experienced labour and delivery nurse from the US, she has been educating in the online space for years and has supported thousands of families to prepare for birth with her incredible resources.  Liesel joins Beth today for a candid chat about what you can expect within the American maternity system and both Beth and Liesel answer questions submitted by Liesel’s online community, which explore some of the differences and similarities for mama’s on opposite sides of the world. This chat is super informative no matter where you are based and a must listen if you are pregnant and curious about birthing in the hospital system.
