In this episode of the Twiniversity Podcast, Natalie talks with Maddie Rahlf, a twin mom of three girls, about the "double whammy" delivery - giving birth to one twin vaginally and the other by C-section in the very same hour. Maddie shares how her twins were a complete surprise - a natural, spontaneous twin conception with no twins in the family, discovered at her 12-week ultrasound - and how reading Nat's book helped her find solid ground once the shock wore off. Because Baby B had a marginal cord insertion and was measuring under the 10th percentile, Maddie's pregnancy included weekly maternal fetal medicine (MFM) monitoring and an induction at 36 weeks. Natalie and Maddie walk through the delivery almost minute by minute: an easy vaginal birth for Baby A after only a few pushes, Baby B flipping transverse the moment she had the womb to herself, the attempts to turn her, a cervix that closed back up, and the placenta concern that finally made a C-section the safest call. Then comes the twist - it was Baby A, the vaginally delivered twin, who ended up in the NICU on CPAP, while Baby B stayed right with mom. The conversation also gets into recovering from a vaginal birth and major abdominal surgery at the same time, the empowerment of being given the choice to try for a vaginal delivery, and Nat's "use your BRAIN" framework (Benefits, Risks, Alternatives, Intuition, Nothing) for making decisions in the moment. Maddie's biggest takeaway: if it happens, it happens - you figure it out one day at a time, and you'll have a pretty cool story to tell. This episode is a reassuring, myth-busting conversation for any twin parent who feels anxious about the possibility of a double whammy delivery. EPISODE THEMES

Smitha's journey is an interesting one. She joined us prior to becoming pregnant, went on pause six months into her pregnancy, and rejoined nine months postpartum to get into the best shape of her life. All her life, she'd wanted to transform what she describes as a skinny-fat frame into a toned, strong-looking physique. And it wasn't until her transformation with us at RNT that she finally made it happen. Smitha is in her early 40s, a GP, entrepreneur and new mother - making this a great example of what can be done when you're ready to make serious changes in your life.

I talk about the change in exercise methodology and how we now should be thinking of postpartum recovery. What should be part of it and what shouldn't.,Which myths still persist even though they've been proven to be incorrect?Why I quickly realised I knew absolutely nothing after I first qualified.The many flaws in a lot of postpartum qualifications out there, the outdated thinking etc.And, most importantly, I share with you what the expert thinking now is.Post partum core strength and training.Pelvic girdle pain.Why you should stop isolating muscles such as the TVA.Why a holistic approach is the only way.Post partum diet advice.Move away from diaphragmatic breathing.and much, much more.As always; HPNB still only has 5 billing cycles.So this means that you not only get 3 months FREE access, no obligation!

Have you ever been so deep in it that you didn't even realise you were in it? That was me with postpartum depletion. I didn't have the language for it. I just knew I was tired in a way sleep wasn't fixing, and I was holding it all together on the outside while quietly running on empty underneath. And here's what I've come to understand. This is not just a postpartum thing. This is an ambitious woman thing. So many of us have been pouring out for years and calling it normal.In this episode I'm sharing what that season taught me. Five nuggets of wisdom I wish I'd known sooner. We talk about the truth no one tells you about the basics, why the three-hour morning routine is a fantasy in a depleted season, what to actually do when "sleep when the baby sleeps" isn't an option, and why being deeply ambitious and deeply well were never meant to be opposites. This one is for the new mama. It is for the mother whose baby is now ten and still hasn't recovered. And it is for the ambitious woman who isn't a mother at all but knows exactly what it feels like to give everything and have nothing left for herself.Join ICONIC Mastermind: www.melissaambrosini.com/iconicHead to www.melissaambrosini.com/689 for the show notes.Join my weekly newsletter: www.melissaambrosini.com/newsletterGet my FREE ZenTone Meditation: www.melissaambrosini.com/zentoneFollow me on Instagram: @melissaambrosini Hosted on Acast.

Amy and Emily wrap a busy month for the podcast amid Amy's jury duty and reschedule the Patreon end-of-month Zoom to start June. They recap The Valley, discussing Luke and Kristen's date night, Kristen's behind-the-scenes “heavy lifting,” and how the show depicts postpartum/breastfeeding life, including baby Adelaide stealing scenes and officially being a "Friend Of" (she knows Nia). They unpack the fallout from Lala and Brittany's claims about Danny's behavior when drinking, Nia's defensive responses, and the group's focus on Danny being verbally abusive, alongside discussion of therapy, sobriety comparisons, and Jason's knee surgery details, and Brittany's crab boil before surgery.

"Once I started doing more core work...prescribed to me by a pelvic floor DPT, and what everyone says you should be doing after pregnancy...I was feeling pain," shares Lane 9 Coach Becky Anthony, head coach and owner of Taylored Training Run. Becky shares her story with a rare injury, osteitis pubis, which she was diagnosed with around three months postpartum. She was working with a physical therapist (DPT) on a return to run program, and had tried to check the boxes before getting back to the sport. But something felt wrong, and painful. And it took a little while to get an accurate diagnosis, and even longer before she was able to run again. No two postpartum experiences are the same, even for one person. Becky shares this in hopes of helping the next parent build their care team—starting with nutrition, working with a DPT and a coach, etc.—and reminding parents to advocate for themselves, and their care. Connect with Becky through the Lane 9 Directory, at Lane9project.org/directory. Follow her coaching online at @tayloredtrainingrun, on Instagram.

In this Her Stack series episode, I open up about maternal mental health, postpartum anxiety, and the invisible biological load mothers carry long after the six-week checkup is over. This episode is not just for the newly postpartum mother. It is for the mother whose kids are four, eight, fifteen, and still asking herself why she does not feel like herself. I share why motherhood structurally changes the brain, hormones, and nervous system, and why so many mothers are left feeling anxious, foggy, depleted, or unlike themselves without ever being properly screened or supported. I walk you through the science of the postpartum neurosteroid withdrawal, the gray matter changes that persist for years, and the five-system map underneath maternal brain fog. Then I break down the full four-pillar protocol I use with my one-to-one clients: foundational nutrition, lifestyle and biohacking tools, the supplement layer including some of the most under-discussed compounds for the maternal brain, and the advanced peptide layer including Semax, Selank, NAD+, and bioregulators.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Evolve Ventures Tech, we take a sharp, honest look at what partnership really requires before, during, and after pregnancy. From postpartum support and emotional labor to household rhythms, identity shifts, and the pressure new parents rarely see coming, we challenge the idea that love alone is enough to build a steady family system.This episode is for expecting parents, conscious couples, and anyone preparing for parenthood with more clarity, humility, and intention. Build the foundation before the baby arrives, because pressure has a way of exposing what preparation was overlooked.Here are related episodes that build on today's conversation:#483 | How to Hold Two Truths At the Same Time - https://apple.co/4tSwvBR #457 | Polyvagal Theory: The Key to Well-Being - https://apple.co/4qcqfCp Learn more about:
Happy Spring! And welcome to the May Q&A!We start with a listener email we loved, followed by a discussion on creativity and why it matters, especially in the early years of motherhood when it can feel completely out of reach.Then we get into your questions.We talk about postpartum hemorrhage and how it's defined, including whether 500 cc of blood loss is truly cause for concern, and the use of Pitocin and Cytotec in that context, particularly for VBAC mothers. We also revisit RhoGAM and walk through when it may or may not be necessary, especially if you're not planning future pregnancies.One listener asks how to handle being the only one in the family making different choices around birth and parenting. We share our thoughts on boundaries, restraint, and when saying less is often the stronger position.In quickies, we cover induction at 42 weeks, complete placenta previa, vitamin D for breastfed babies, pelvic floor therapy access, low libido in pregnancy, newborn weight checks, birth combs, and how to get through the third trimester in the summer.Finally, when one fan asked our opinion on which of us may be the better driver, one of us shares an old story of getting a reckless driving ticket!**********Send us Fan Mail Cozyearth: Use code DTB for 20% offNeeded
Hotter after baby than before—and exactly how she did it. || ⇢ WATCH ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1muLPn83INw In this episode, Monica sits down with Jacqui Kingswell, a former professional dancer turned co-founder of The Pilates Class and The Birthing Class, a leading voice in modern wellness, and a mum of two, to unpack what it really takes to feel like yourself again after having a baby—from healing your body the right way postpartum, to navigating the identity shift that comes with motherhood, to running a business alongside your husband without losing your mind or your self-trust. Also inside the conversation:
You may have many people in your life who are very excited to meet and love on your baby, or who want to support you after your birth. This is a great problem to have, right? But maybe you feel overwhelmed, crowded, or smothered by it. Maybe some of the people who are eager to get into your postpartum space bring up feelings of discomfort or resistance: having them there just doesn't feel good in your body, even though they're very nice and/or related to you. Do they have a right to be there anyway? Are you obligated to tell your parents the moment the baby comes out? Is it necessary to allow your in-laws to visit and "meet the baby" within 24 hours? Should you allow others to hold the baby that first week? In this episode we explore the concerns and tensions that many mothers (and fathers) experience about how to include loved ones in the earliest days of their baby's lives, what it looks like to honor the critical time period of the first week of a baby's life when the mother and baby are a dyad, and how to lovingly and clearly set boundaries or establish expectations with both healthy and unhealthy people.

After dancing professionally for years, Katia combined her passion for dance and fitness into a career when she founded DanceBody in 2013. A 15-year veteran in the wellness industry, Katia grew DanceBody from the ground up, starting with Private Sessions that quickly turned into sold out classes. Her mission to provide a fun, inclusive experience through the DanceBody workout has translated into a cult-like following in NYC, Connecticut, Los Angeles, The Hamptons, and beyond. Katia is regularly tapped as an expert in her field, both as a fitness professional and entrepreneur. This episode was recorded LIVE at Dancebody's new studio in Westport CT amongst our collective communities of moms in celebration of Mother's Day - the energy throughout the conversation and after in a sculpt workout taught by Katia's Co-founder Courtnay Mariani was palpable. This event format and morning felt like such a cool mark of Katia's debut back to her Westport studio after having a baby just 5 months ago, as well as a moment to come together as moms, and celebrate eachother. We definitely don't get enough of these moments together - so here's to manifesting many many more.Follow Katia on InstagramFollow Dancebody on Instagram Follow The Big Move Podcast hereFollow Host Em here

What if the biggest thing you could do to prepare for birth and postpartum was to stop trying to prepare for everything?After everything I've shared about this pregnancy, I'm finally getting into the details: what I'm actually planning for labor, delivery, and postpartum, and more importantly, how I'm thinking about all of it. Because the mindset going in? That part matters just as much as any plan.This one is honest, a little emotional, and very real. I'm sharing what was hard the first time around, what I'm doing differently this time, and the one question I want to leave you with no matter where you are in your own journey.HERE'S WHAT TO SAY TO YOUR BRAIN WHEN YOU'RE SPIRALING: https://ahealthypush.myflodesk.com/calmpanicTAKE MY FREE QUIZ AND FIND OUT WHAT'S CAUSING YOU TO STAY STUCK: https://www.ahealthypush.com/blocking-quizA HEALTHY PUSH INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/ahealthypush/GET THIS EPISODE'S SHOW NOTES: https://www.ahealthypush.com/post/pregnancy-round-2
Welcome back to Where’s Your Bump At?! In this episode, I’m joined by women’s health and fertility nutritionist Jackie Frangeskakis (aka @thenourishedcycle) for a really honest conversation about the postpartum rollercoaster and everything no one warns you about after having a baby. We unpack the huge hormonal shifts that happen after birth, why so many mums feel anxious, exhausted or unlike themselves, the reality of feeling “touched out”, libido changes, breastfeeding, the mental load of motherhood, and what partners can actually do to help. If you’ve ever thought “why don’t I feel like me?” after having a baby, this episode is for you. All our love,Anna xxxSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

She had a baby. Then her cycle disappeared — and nobody told her what that actually meant, or when it might come back, or whether she could get pregnant again before it did. Rose McKenzie has spent over a decade helping women understand their hormones in the moments when they feel most invisible: irregular cycles, postpartum, perimenopause. And she'll tell you plainly — the postpartum body is not a mystery. It's a system coming back online. The problem is nobody's watching the data.Rose is the clinical manager at Mira and a natural family planning practitioner with more than 10 years of experience helping women use hormone tracking not just for fertility, but for whole-body health awareness. Today she joins Dr. Susan Fox for a conversation about what's actually happening to your hormones after birth — and why tracking them postpartum is one of the most informed things a new mother can do, whether she wants to conceive again, avoid conceiving, or simply understand her own body.You'll learn why your hormones don't flip back on like a light switch after birth — and what the slow train analogy actually tells us about your return to cycling, why ovulation can return as early as eight weeks postpartum even while breastfeeding — and why that matters more than whether your period has come back, what the Lactational Amenorrhea Method (LAM) actually requires — and why almost everyone gets "kicked out" of it sooner than they expect, why a positive LH surge is not confirmation of ovulation — and what progesterone has to do with it, what "cycle wonky" means and why your first one to four cycles back are not your baseline, what the teeter-totter between prolactin and the body's drive to ovulate looks like on a hormone chart, how intentionally disrupting your nursing pattern — carefully and with support — can help jump-start ovulation for those trying to conceive while still breastfeeding, why tracking postpartum hormones led to two PCOS diagnoses that conventional medicine would have missed entirely, what Mira actually measures and why an LH strip alone doesn't give you the full picture, and why Mira is data — not a diagnosis, not a treatment plan, and not a standalone method for avoiding pregnancy. This episode is for you if you've just had a baby and have no idea when your hormones will return or what "normal" even looks like right now, you're breastfeeding and want to understand whether pregnancy is actually possible for you right now, you want to conceive again and aren't sure if your body is hormonally ready, you've been assuming your period has to come back before ovulation does, you're curious about natural family planning and want to understand how hormone tracking fits into it, or you want to stop floating around postpartum and start actually knowing what your body is doing.

Approximately 10-15% of women may develop an autoimmune disease within the first year after childbirth. Conditions like thyroiditis, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis are commonly diagnosed postpartum! AND women who had an autoimmune disease prior to pregnancy experience a mild to moderate flare of symptoms 20-40% of the time. This is due to a variety of factors stemming from nutrient depletion, hormones all out of whack, lack of sleep, increase of stress on the body, and mental stress as well. From what I've studied and the researchers in the field that I've listened to, nutrient depletion is the biggest factor we have the most control over. And the standard advice we've been given has been terrible for our health. Let's talk through this and let me give you plan to help you recover well.

Many neurodivergent people move through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum feeling misunderstood and unsupported in healthcare settings that were not designed with their minds in mind. In this episode, doula and founder of Neurodivergent Birth Victoria White shares how her own later-in-life autism and ADHD diagnoses reshaped her understanding of her postpartum experiences and why many neurodivergent parents struggle in systems that often assume everyone processes in the same way. Learn about how sensory processing, communication, and executive functioning challenges can shape the perinatal experience for neurodivergent families and the small changes that can help neurodivergent people feel safer, more supported, and empowered.

What if one of the most "empowering" trends for women… is actually making us feel more powerless? A recent conversation with one of my students completely stopped me in my tracks. She said: "I feel like a walking bag of hormones." And it opened up a much bigger conversation about modern hormone culture, cycle syncing, female identity, emotional resilience, and what young women are being taught about themselves. Now to be clear: Hormones are real. PMS is real. Postpartum is real. Perimenopause is real. But somewhere along the way, many women started absorbing the message that we are entirely at the mercy of our biology. In this episode, I unpack: - The rise of cycle syncing culture - The good parts of hormonal awareness - Where I think the conversation goes too far - The mindset shift I desperately want young women to hear - And why I believe women are far more powerful than this narrative suggests This is nuanced. It's compassionate. And it might challenge the way you think. Stay until the end because the message I would give my own daughter is the most important part. __________________ Have a question you want my take on?

This episode dives into why women deserve a far higher standard of care during pregnancy and postpartum. Pregnancy is one of the most nutrient-demanding phases of life, yet many women are entering it already depleted, stressed, undernourished, and running on empty.I discuss how inadequate nutrition may contribute to a more symptomatic pregnancy, harder recovery, hormone imbalances, blood sugar dysregulation, fatigue, hair loss, anxiety, postpartum depletion, and long-term health struggles beyond birth. This episode is about moving beyond the “survive motherhood” mentality and supporting women with truly optimal nourishment.I also break down my top prenatal rankings and why quality, nutrient forms, choline, iron, methylation support, and bioavailability matter so much.Needed Prenatal and We Natal products can be found on my Fullscript at a huge discount!

May is Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month. It is believed that 1 in 5 new moms experience some level of perinatal mood or anxiety disorder. And when a new mom experiences postpartum anxiety or depression, her partner is 50% more likely to also experience anxiety or depression. In today's episode, we've invited three fathers to share their perspective on the postpartum journey. Mike Vasquez and Todd Kennedy are married to women who courageously shared their postpartum experiences in episodes 31 and 32. Alex Grant and his wife are former clients of Allison. In this episode, Allison asks Mike, Todd, and Alex to reflect on their own transition to parenthood and what it was like to support a partner navigating postpartum anxiety or depression. Together, they share honest insights about recognizing when something was not quite right, managing their own emotions during a stressful season, and learning how to show up as steady, supportive partners. Their stories highlight the importance of communication, support systems, and compassion for both parents during the postpartum period. This episode offers a powerful reminder that postpartum mental health affects the entire family and that partners play a critical role in recovery and healing. Listen in to learn: Why postpartum mental health challenges affect the whole family, not just the mother How partners often recognize early signs of postpartum anxiety or depression The emotional impact of supporting a struggling spouse after a new baby arrives Practical ways partners can provide meaningful support during the postpartum period Why open communication and a strong support system are essential for new families We have eleven episodes dedicated to the important topic of maternal mental health.

In this episode, Tara chats with Caitlin Wilder, a full-spectrum doula, lactation counselor, podcaster and founder of Wilder Beginnings, for an honest conversation about the realities of postpartum life that so many moms are experiencing, but few people openly talk about. Caitlin shares why managing expectations in motherhood can make such a difference during the postpartum season, especially in a world where social media often paints an unrealistic picture of what life with a new baby should look like. Tara and Caitlin talk about embracing imperfection, giving yourself permission to slow down, and how lowering your expectations during postpartum can actually reduce stress and support your mental health. Caitlin also dives into the importance of trusting your maternal instincts and learning to respond confidently to your baby's cues instead of outside noise. They discuss the impact technology and social media can have on new moms, why limiting social media use during postpartum may protect your peace, and practical advice for moms navigating life with multiple children. Whether you are preparing for your first baby or adjusting to motherhood all over again, this conversation is filled with reassuring reminders, grounded parenting tips, and encouragement to trust yourself through every stage of the motherhood journey.
