In this episode of Go Get Great, I’m taking you behind the scenes for the birth of baby #5. As a mom of five, I kind of have this whole labour and delivery thing down to a science. Every child and birth story is different but there are things you can do to make your birth experience easier. I share my tips for getting ready to meet baby and what to do after they're here.

We’ll talk about what surprised me this time around, how my mindset has shifted with each baby, and what postpartum recovery really feels like — physically, mentally, and emotionally.
