Parent Pod from BabyCentre - 36 weeks pregnant

How will you know you’re in labour? Listen to hear the tell-tale signs and hear from other BabyCentre mums of how they knew they were in labour. Also this week, it’s a great idea to have your bag packed and ready, but have you thought about who will look after children or pets? Hear our top tips on planning for everything! Your baby may be preparing for labour too this week – we learn how your midwife will check what position your baby is in.

The Parent Pod is hosted by Lucy Toseland-Bolton and Claire Mutimer, both mums to young children and both BabyCentre parents. It is produced by BabyCentre UK and Tin Shed Productions. Download all 48 episodes now.
