Your Birth Bestie | The Pregnancy and Birth Podcast for an Informed and Fearless Experience

If you're newly pregnant, you're probably wondering what steps you should take next! How do you find a good provider? And why the heck is every online due date calculator a little different?

In this episode, I talk about what to do after you get that positive pregnancy test including choosing your provider, scheduling your first appointment and possibly an ultrasound, and how to calculate your estimated due date, specifically why every online calculator gives you a similar, but not exact date.
