Think EDS and pregnancy is a straightforward conversation? Think again. In this jam-packed Office Hours episode, I dig into everything I wish someone had told me and everything I've since learned from patients, research, and my own pregnancies. From racing heart rates and failed epidurals to postpartum complications and misunderstood mental health shifts, we're laying it all out. We explore rapid labor, prolapse risk, anesthetic resistance, dysautonomia flares, pelvic floor fragility, and why some babies bruise easier than doctors expect. Whether you're prepping for pregnancy, navigating birth, or recovering afterward, this is your roadmap for a more informed journey. Takeaways: Pregnancy with EDS or HSD isn't automatically high-risk, but it comes with specific concerns like tissue fragility, anesthesia resistance, and prolapse that OBs may overlook. Labor can be rapid and unpredictable in people with connective tissue disorders, making delivery planning (and backup plans) especially important. Local anesthetics may not work as expected, so communicating prior resistance to meds like lidocaine is crucial for anesthesia teams. Postpartum recovery often takes longer, with higher risk of complications like joint instability, slow healing, and mental health shifts, including postpartum depression. Medical students with EDS should choose specialties with pacing and physical demand in mind, considering how residency schedules and procedures might affect long-term career sustainability.

Send us a textIn this episode of Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday, Dr. Mark Amols breaks down one of the most overlooked problems in modern fertility care: the hidden harm of overcalling mosaic embryos.We begin with a surprising math puzzle from a 2023 study by Dr. Jonah Bardos in Fertility & Sterility, where the lab reporting the highest euploid rate also had the highest live birth rate—a result that shouldn't happen if “more abnormal embryos were slipping through.” Instead, the math points to something deeper.Dr. Amols explains what mosaicism really is, why true biological mosaicism is rare, and how PGT-A testing can create artificial mosaics from noise, amplification variability, and overly sensitive algorithms. When labs generate inflated mosaic rates—sometimes 10–20%—they push potentially strong embryos out of the euploid category and unintentionally create selection bias.Through clear examples and memorable analogies, you'll learn how calling too many mosaics doesn't protect patients—it can actually lower pregnancy rates by changing which embryos get transferred first. You'll also hear why high-level mosaics can be clinically useful, while overcalling low-level mosaics can distort decision-making and delay success.If you've ever felt overwhelmed or confused by mosaic results on a PGT report, this episode will help you understand what's signal, what's noise, and why more information isn't always better in fertility care.Stay tuned at the end for ways to support the podcast and for a preview of an upcoming episode on high-level mosaics.Thanks for tuning in to another episode of 'Taco Bout Fertility Tuesday' with Dr. Mark Amols.

In this solo livestream episode, Jason Cavness walks small business owners through the HR laws you must follow when you have 49 or fewer employees. Jason draws from more than 30 years of HR experience, 25 years as a retired U.S. Army officer, and over a decade working with startups to explain complicated HR rules in a simple, practical way.  Jason covers what federal government actually requires, why most HR mistakes come from confusion rather than bad intent, and how ignoring even one rule can lead to fines, audits, lawsuits, and massive headaches for small business owners.  Using real examples, stories from his career, and questions from livestream viewers, Jason breaks down what every employer needs to know: overtime rules, payroll tax obligations, discrimination laws, onboarding requirements, union rules, ADA accommodations, pregnancy protections, military employment rights, OSHA issues, misclassification risks, and more. If you're a founder, small business owner, or early-stage startup leader, this episode gives you a straightforward roadmap for staying compliant and protecting your business before something goes wrong.  Topics Discussed • Why HR feels complicated  and why it really isn't  • The real reason most small businesses get fined  • Drug-Free Workplace Act and who it does and does not apply to  • Audio monitoring vs video monitoring rules  • Polygraph testing and the extremely rare cases where it's allowed  • Military employment rights and what employers must provide  • Workplace safety, chemical safety sheets, and OSHA basics • Employee rights to discuss wages, schedules, and working conditions • Equal Pay Act misunderstandings and why negotiation habits matter • Minimum wage, overtime, exempt vs non-exempt rules • Why you must pay overtime even when you tell someone not to work it • I-9 verification, E-Verify, and immigration compliance • Payroll tax responsibilities • ADA and reasonable accommodation requirements • Pregnancy discrimination and common employer mistakes • Genetic information discrimination and health insurance issues • Title VII Civil Rights Act protections • LGBTQ workplace protections  • Age discrimination rules and why age 40 is the legal threshold • COBRA continuation for companies offering health benefits  • Worker misclassification and how calling someone a contractor doesn't make them one • Why unions form and how employers accidentally trigger unionization • What CavnessHR is building to automate HR and prevent these problems Support CavnessHR CavnessHR is building an AI-native HR system for small businesses with 49 or fewer employees  automated compliance plus access to a dedicated HR Business Partner.  Invest on Wefunder: https://wefunder.com/cavnesshr Download 7 free eBooks based on The Jason Cavness Experience: https://www.buildcavnesshr.com/ebooks Join the Builders Club: https://www.buildcavnesshr.com/ Connect with Jason Cavness LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoncavness/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasoncavness Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasoncavness TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jasoncavness Podcast: https://www.thejasoncavnesssexperience.com

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we're joined by Emily Oster — bestselling author, economist, and the data-driven voice behind ParentData.org— to separate pregnancy facts from fear-based fiction.

099. Stephanie is on share her spontaneous pregnancy at 43. Stephanie has been with her husband since she was 27 and married him at 39. She always wanted kids, at least one or two, but no more than three. Her husband is eleven years older than her with kids from a previous relationship and was open to having more. Once they decided to try to have a baby, she wasn't pregnant and thought something was wrong. Her husband had kids, so she went to the doctor a year and a half into trying to conceive to get herself checked out. All tests were normal. Eventually she just let it be. At 32 they found a fibroid, so they put her on birth control to shrink it. Luckily it worked and at 34, after getting off of birth control, she was pregnant with her son. When her son turned two, she was ready to try for another baby. At about the same time they were deciding, her husband got custody of his three kids. She instantly became a mama of four boys, a toddler and three preteens. Her blood pressure was high and she thought her family was complete. Find out how her blood pressure medication may have played a role in the surprise of her daughter of 43. Get the transcript and more information about this episode:https://over40fabulousandpregnant.com/episode99/Please donate to the show if you found this podcast helpful!

Getting sick can feel especially tough when you're pregnant. Unfortunately, during pregnancy, you're more vulnerable to illnesses like colds, the flu, and COVID-19. This episode helps you understand what kind of illness you might have, how to treat your symptoms safely, and when to reach out to your doctor or midwife. Learn how these viruses spread, what symptoms to watch for, and how to distinguish between common cold, pregnancy rhinitis, or strep throat. Find out about evidence-based, non-medical strategies to ease symptoms. Hear about research on homeopathic remedies like Umcka and herbal teas for cold relief.

In this episode, we step into the world of subtle energies, ancient lineages, and the forgotten intelligence of nature with renowned flower essence pioneer Katie Hess. For more than 25 years, Katie has traveled the world hand-collecting rare blooms, studying their emotional and spiritual signatures, and helping thousands dissolve old patterns, open the heart, and reconnect with who they truly are. Together, we explore the origins of flower essences across cultures, the skepticism they often provoke, the transformative shifts they can catalyze, and the deeper relationship between consciousness, nature, and the unseen forces that shape our lives.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:32) Opening Conversation(07:26) Katie Hess Journey and Flower Remedies(11:38) Understanding Flower Essences and Their Impact(21:16) Collecting and Using Flower Essences(37:53) Skepticism of Flower Essences(44:42) Spirituality and Connection to Nature(48:03) Regional Effects of Flowers(49:43) The Mystical San Pedro Cactus Flower(51:42) The Impact of Plants on Our Daily Lives(54:02) Building a Business Around Flower Essences(58:16) Stories of Transformation with Flower Remedies(01:02:08) The Cyclical Nature of Business and Personal Growth(01:11:08) Flower Essences for Addiction and Pregnancy(01:18:41) How to Get Started with Flower Essences(01:31:41) Final ThoughtsGuest Linkshttps://www.lotuswei.com/hereforthetruth - 10% Discount Code: HFTTTake the Master Flower Quiz here!https://www.instagram.com/lotuswei/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

#surrogacy #ivf #surrogate Brie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannatowne?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==What if the calm, practical path to a healthy surrogate pregnancy is simpler than you've been told? We sit down with maternal health nutritionist and current surrogate Brie Towne, who pairs evidence with empathy to demystify prenatal nutrition, implantation support, and postpartum recovery. No scare tactics, no perfectionism—just strategies that actually fit a full life.Brie explains why early nutrient stores matter for implantation and first-trimester development, then walks through realistic weight gain targets, how to handle nausea with balanced meals, and a hydration approach that uses thirst and urine color instead of arbitrary quotas. We dig into the most overlooked prenatal nutrient—choline—and how to get it from eggs, fish, and thoughtful supplementation. We also talk through folate, iron, omega-3s, vitamin D, iodine, and antioxidants, clarifying when supplements help and when they're unnecessary or even counterproductive.One of the biggest surprises: organic isn't automatically better. Brie unpacks the small nutritional differences, cost trade-offs, and what pesticide regulation really looks like, freeing you to buy what you'll actually eat and afford. You'll leave with simple routines—default breakfasts, snack prep, frozen and canned standbys, and a “40 plants a week” diversity goal—that make eating well easier than chasing trends. For postpartum and pumping, we cover calorie needs, gentle foods for early digestion, and how to protect milk supply without turning meals into math.Whether you're an intended parent seeking peace of mind, a first-time surrogate navigating expectations, or a returning carrier looking to fine-tune what works, this conversation equips you with grounded, judgment-free tools. If you found this helpful, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review to help more families find us.https://verdurehouse.com/Send us a texthttps://stopsitsurrogate.com

In this episode of Healthy Mom Healthy Baby Tennessee, Dr. Linley Wolfe interviews Dr. Carrie Brackney, a maternal-fetal medicine physician in Memphis, about GLP-1 receptor agonist medications (commonly known as Ozempic, Wegovy, and similar drugs) and their implications for pregnancy. The discussion covers how these medications work, their dramatic effects on weight loss and diabetes management, and the emerging phenomenon of "Ozempic babies" - unintended pregnancies occurring in women taking these medications. Dr. Brackney provides guidance on when to discontinue these medications before conception, discusses limited safety data in pregnancy, and explains what monitoring is recommended for women who become pregnant while taking GLP-1s. Both physicians share their personal experiences with these medications and express hope for future research on postpartum use.Episode Highlights00:00:04: Welcome to Healthy Mom, Healthy Baby Tennessee podcast, brought to you by the Tennessee Initiative for Perinatal Quality Care (TIPQC), which exists to improve health outcomes for mothers and infants in Tennessee 00:00:46: Dr. Linley Wolfe introduces Dr. Carrie Brackney, a maternal-fetal medicine physician in Memphis who has been practicing as a perinatologist for three years after working as a general OB-GYN for nine years00:01:32: Dr. Brackney describes her passion for caring for women with complex pregnancies and helping them find joy during challenging times00:02:03: Dr. Wolfe introduces the topic of GLP-1 medications, noting they have been revolutionary for people struggling with weight00:02:38: Dr. Brackney explains that GLP-1 receptor agonists work by activating glucagon-like peptide one receptors, regulating blood sugar, reducing appetite, and slowing digestion through multiple mechanisms00:03:46: Discussion of how GLP-1 medications have been around for diabetes treatment but have been increasingly used for weight loss over the last four to five years00:04:04: Dr. Brackney notes these medications are also being used for patients with cardiovascular conditions and kidney disease, showing decreased complications00:04:28: Dr. Wolfe mentions recent approval for people who are overweight with sleep apnea, predicting more indications will emerge00:04:42: Cost identified as one of the biggest barriers to these medications becoming more popular00:05:01: Dr. Brackney reports that semaglutide and tirzepatide show potential for over 10% weight loss, while liraglutide shows 5-15% total weight loss00:05:49: Discussion of side effects, with nausea and constipation being the most common, though they are treatable and many people adjust over time00:06:09: Dr. Wolfe asks about common brand names versus generic names for listener clarity00:06:25: Dr. Brackney lists brand names including Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus (semaglutide), Trulicity (dulaglutide), Victoza and Saxenda (liraglutide), and Mounjaro (tirzepatide)00:07:02: Discussion of compounded medications versus manufacturer medications, with Dr. Brackney noting compounded versions are not FDA-regulated and therefore not considered as safe00:07:55: Dr. Wolfe transitions to discussing pregnancy and the phenomenon of "Ozempic babies"00:08:51: Dr. Brackney explains that obesity reduces fertility, with obese women having three times higher risk of infertility and 40% higher miscarriage rates00:10:28: Discussion of how GLP-1 medications may interfere with contraceptive distribution in the body due to slowed gastric emptying00:11:04: Dr. Wolfe summarizes that better overall health, weight loss, and potential contraceptive interference all contribute to "Ozempic babies"00:11:27: Dr. Brackney recommends discontinuing GLP-1 medications at least one to two months before trying to get pregnant, noting limited data on ideal timing00:12:38: Discussion of the lack of...

Can you change a child's birthday because it's a bit... inconvenient for you? Content creator Indy Clinton wants us to believe she's doing just that with her "Christmas baby" and Sagittarians everywhere have thoughts. Plus, Sienna Miller is pregnant and in a negligee on the British Fashion Awards this week. At 43, Holly wants to know, is this the quintessential representation of the new era of agelessness? Also, Pilates is dead, strength training is on its way out and a mobility obsession is on its way in - but, Amelia asks, is scolding people with the "correct" exercise trends really the way to make women move? And an essay about motherhood ambivalence has Jessie pufferfishing. So, if you're not sure if you want kids, should you do it? REFERENCES, friends:If You're On The Fence About Having Kids, Don't Do It - By Zoya Patel. Dr Stacey Sims being interviewed by Holly on MID.

In this episode I sit down with Brittney Michelle - wild pregnancy, sovereign birthing mama and the woman behind Woman Be Wild. Brittney shares the seven-year initiation that carried her from religious conditioning and “good girl” programming into a fully embodied, earth-rooted woman - and the magical 9 months she spent with her Mother, before the Father of her child walked into her life!We trace the moments that cracked her open: the vow she made to her bloodline, the near-death experience and the slow reclamation of her body, her language and her direct relationship with Spirit.Brittany takes us inside the bones of Woman Be Wild and why this fifth edition feels like the book finally “arrived.” She speaks to writing from a woman who has walked through the underworld, held the line through 2020 and birthed her baby in total sovereignty.We explore the “dead template” - the chain of cultural, religious, medical and political systems that bind women to a lifeless script, and what it means to consciously step outside of it so that real life, real birth and real motherhood can move through.We also weave the story of how our paths crossed – the invisible soul-network that connected us across countries. And the women scattered across the globe that are holding the same knowing - being the bridges between the system and the sovereign, the dead grid and the living earth.This conversation is for the woman who feels the deadness of the old systems, who has held the line with family, medicine, or culture - and who knows somewhere deep in her bones, that she is here to write her own program, birth her own way, remember herself – wildly, wholly, and free.'Woman Be Wild; The Redprint of the Feminine' can be pre-ordered at @8rittneymichelle or at @womanbewild

In this week's episode, actress, writer, producer and professional on-screen villain Lindsay Diann pulls up for a raw, funny, and deeply honest conversation about being paper pregnant, navigating miscarriage, and stepping into baby joy after loss. She shares what it was really like inducing her missed miscarriage at home, how hormones had her feeling unhinged, and what partners should—and shouldn't—do when you're carrying that emotional load alone.We dive into the mental shift from “outside girl” to “intentional woman,” why friendships change when marriages and babies enter the chat, and how to be a better friend when someone in your circle goes through trauma. Lindsay also spills on playing the unhinged Leslie on “The Team”, the joy of being a villain, and what's next for her production company, LA Elite Productions, including her upcoming films “Girls Night,” “The Perfect Proposal,” and “Curious.”And because every episode needs something in the glass, today's drink is the Prego-Rita — a citrusy mocktail with a sparkling-wine upgrade for the girls who aren't pregnant.
