   Childbirth, Confidence, and Postpartum Realities with Prof. Gurjeet Minhas

   What is the biggest lie women are told about childbirth? In this episode of 9 to 5 Mom, host Francheska sits down with Prof. Gurjeet Minhas—a Registered Nurse, Natural Childbirth Educator, Certified Hypnotherapist, and Healer. Together, they break down why simply "trusting your body" isn't enough, how true childbirth preparation extends beyond basic information, and why mental, physical, and emotional readiness must begin before pregnancy even starts. Prof. Minhas shares insights on navigating fears around labor, overcoming birth trauma, preparing for the often-overlooked realities of postpartum care, and involving partners in the journey.
