N.B Marie is no longer a nurse. She has not been a member of the Ordre des Infirmières et Infirmiers du Québec since 2016. She has also been retired from the health network since 2016. Please note that some videos were shot while she was a member of the Order, which explains the title of perinatal nurse indicated at the time, which is no longer effective today.

Who will go with you to the hospital? What papers do you need to fill in before admission? What is a birth plan? What are the signs that you will give birth soon? What will the medical staff do when you arrive? Marie answers your many questions in this video.
