Inside the Delivery Room
Notes de l’épisode
You’ve timed the contractions. You’ve grabbed the bag. You’re pulling up to the hospital. What happens now?
Even for the most prepared parents, the hospital can feel like an unknown. But it doesn't have to be that way. In this episode, we take you into the delivery room—from cervical checks and fetal monitoring to pushing and crowning. So when you walk through those doors, you’ll know what’s happening and how to advocate for yourself in the moment.
Birth with Babylist brings together trusted experts and parents who’ve lived it to break down what happens before, during, and after birth—without fear-mongering or shaming. Hosted by journalist, author, and mom of three Jo Piazza. New episodes every Thursday.
Featuring Lo Mansfield, RN, IBCLC (@thelabormama), Molly Lepic, DO, Laura Hanks, MD (@drhanks_at_ur_cervix) and Jillian LoPiano, MD.
