EP 44: What No One Tells You About Labor & Delivery Nurses (+ How to Build Your Village for Two Under Two)

Having a baby is hard. Having two under two? A whole different level. In this episode of the Thoughtful Advocate Podcast, Elizabeth Teo gets real about what to actually expect from labor and delivery nurses, how to build a support system before your baby arrives, and her honest fears about navigating life with two little ones. She breaks down the Doers, Listeners, and Resources framework her therapist shared with her so you can map out your village before baby comes, and shares what postpartum recovery actually looks like when you are not doing it alone. Topics covered: labor and delivery nurse experience, swaddling chaos, breastfeeding and formula, parental leave in Canada, preparing your toddler for a new sibling, and why asking for help is a sign of strength.
