Podcasts about Pregnancy

Spoiler: I'm pregnant again! After two different losses, once I saw another positive test, I felt a complex bouquet of emotions — excitement, anxiety, fear, hope. It was a lot. To protect my sanity, I knew I needed to keep things sacred for a long time. I had no idea when it was going to feel right sharing with the internet and/or podcasting world. It feels right now.

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. From sushi and soft cheese to caffeine, deli meat, and yes — even a little wine — Emily breaks down what's actually backed by research vs. what's just outdated “pregnancy police” rules we've all heard. We also get into nausea myths, Ozempic, Botox, NIPT false positives, elective inductions, epidurals, and the real risks people should pay attention to. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting pregnancy advice, Googled something you immediately regretted, or wondered what really matters for a healthy pregnancy — this one's going to bring so much relief (and maybe give you permission to enjoy that Diet Coke again!!!).

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!

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...

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

Send us a textThe hardest part isn't always the pain; it's the fog—those days when the labels keep changing, the meds blur together, and the bills are louder than your body. That's where Stephanie A. Wynn stepped in, transforming her Crohn's journey into a movement for clarity, access, and equity.We sit down with Stephanie—author, podcaster, and founder of the Stephanie A. Wynn Foundation—to unpack how a misdiagnosis spiral, two heartbreaking pregnancy losses, and a sixth GI finally led to answers and action. She walks us through the IBD Patient Navigator Program she built to connect people with the care team they actually need: GI, primary care, mental health, dietitian, pelvic floor therapist, and, when needed, a colorectal surgeon. We talk about practical tools that change outcomes—recording appointments, coming with three priority questions, tracking symptoms and meals, and learning your labs so they can become signals instead of mysteries.Stephanie also opens up her book Navigating IBD: A Six-Week Blueprint for Better Gut Health which she designed to slow overwhelm and teach the language of care including treatment decisions, and what “knowing your numbers” truly means. We dig into clinical trials—why she calls it clinical research, how to qualify, what to ask about aftercare, and ways to participate through labs or tissue samples to boost representation. We tackle health disparities and social determinants of health head-on: transportation, refrigeration for meds, school support, and why trust is built by showing up with real solutions.This is a conversation about agency and community for anyone living with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. You'll leave with a sharper checklist, a stronger voice, and a reminder that you are not alone—and that the right tools and team can change everything.If this helped you, follow the show, leave a quick review, and share it with someone who needs a clear path forward today.Links: Link to Stephanie's IBD bookThe Stephanie A.

In episode #408 of The Hormone Puzzle Podcast, our guest, Emily Sadri, talks about Trying to Conceive After 35? What You Really Need to Know About Preparing Your Body for Pregnancy as You Approach Perimenopause. More about Emily Sadri: Emily Sadri is a double-board certified Women's Health Nurse Practitioner and Certified Nurse Midwife. Originally from New York City, she completed her graduate education at the University of Pennsylvania. Drawn to midwifery for its meaning "with woman," she values care built on relationship and believes women need someone to walk alongside them, not direct them. After a decade in conventional medicine, she founded Aurelia Health in 2021. As a mother of four balancing career and well-being, she relates deeply to the women she serves. Emily leads by challenging norms and believes women can have it all when supported with exceptional, relationship-centered healthcare. Thank you for listening!

Dr. Nicola Hawley is an Associate Professor of Epidemiology at the Yale School of Public Health, where she also holds a secondary appointment in Anthropology. She serves as Associate Director for Dissemination and Implementation Science at the Yale Center for Clinical Investigation. Trained as a human biologist, Dr. Hawley is an internationally recognized expert in maternal and child health, with a focus on how early life experiences, from pregnancy through childhood, shape long-term risks for obesity and chronic disease.

In this episode, we chat with the brilliant and brave Caiti, who takes us through the emotional chaos that is pregnancy, miscarriage, and trying again when life has already knocked the wind out of you. She talks about falling pregnant for the first time - the excitement, the dreams, the absolute gut-punch heartbreak of losing her son, Miles - and the way grief seeped into every corner of her life, including her relationship with her wife.Caiti opens up about the complicated dance of navigating grief as a same-sex couple, where both partners are hurting but not always in the same way, at the same time, or with the same intensity. She speaks honestly about the guilt, the questioning, the feeling of her body having somehow betrayed her, and the loneliness that can creep in even when you're surrounded by love.We also dive into the world of IVF - the needles, the hormones, the hope, the fear, the spreadsheets of appointments, and the emotional whiplash of trying to plan for a future when you're still carrying the weight of a past loss. And because this is TWGGEF, we talk about the absolutely essential act of advocating for yourself in a healthcare system that doesn't always get it, especially when it comes to pregnancy loss and same sex families.As always, the conversation circles back to community - the people, the spaces, the podcasts (hello there) that make this nightmare ride a little less isolating. Caiti's courage in sharing her story reminds us that breaking the silence breaks the stigma, and that speaking our truths helps someone else feel less alone.Key TakeawaysCaiti's first pregnancy began smoothly, making the loss even more devastating.Miscarriage can trigger crushing guilt and feelings of not being “enough”.Grief looks different for every partner, and that mismatch can be incredibly hard.Advocating for yourself in the healthcare system is essential, especially after trauma.Open, honest communication is vital for surviving impossible moments in relationships.Pregnancy loss can be profoundly isolating, even with a strong support system.Community spaces and resources - including podcasts - can bring comfort and connection.IVF is a complex, emotional rollercoaster, but it also offers genuine hope.Medical environments need far more sensitivity and awareness around pregnancy loss.Sharing her story has helped Caiti feel connected, supported, and part of a wider healing community.We are The Worst Girl Gang Ever Foundation. We're all about bringing people together who are going through the tough stuff — baby loss, infertility, and everything in between — and making sure no one has to face it alone. Our community is full of honesty, compassion, and real talk, offering support, understanding, and hope when it's needed most.

In this eye-opening episode, I sit down with Lucy Biggers, a former climate activist who has undergone a remarkable transformation. Lucy shares her journey from being deeply entrenched in climate activism and suffering from climate anxiety to becoming a voice of reason who now creates content to calm people's environmental fears.We explore how documentaries like "An Inconvenient Truth" and her work at NowThis News shaped her initial worldview, and what specific moments during the COVID pandemic made her question the climate movement's demands. Lucy reveals how becoming a mother changed her perspective on the future and why she now advocates for climate realism over alarmism. We discuss the psychological appeal of climate catastrophism, the actual data on extreme weather and climate-related deaths, and how young people are being affected by environmental anxiety.This conversation examines the intersection of environmental concerns with mental health, exploring how catastrophic thinking about climate can impact life decisions about family, career, and personal wellbeing. Lucy offers a refreshing perspective on why humanity's future might be brighter than many believe, and why gratitude for human progress is essential for mental health.Lucy Biggers makes content to calm climate anxiety on her social media and is the Head of Social Media at The Free Press.

Most people think of dentistry as separate from fertility, pregnancy, hormones, gut health, or baby development — but today's guest, Dr. Stacey, is here to show why the mouth may be the most important part of the entire body when it comes to conception, pregnancy, and your child's long-term health.This conversation is from the summit I hosted a year ago, and since this conversation is powerful, I am now featuring this here! Additionally, Dr Stacey was interviewed by my co-host in the summit, Dr Carrie Jones. Dr. Stacey is a board-certified pediatric dentist and functional dentistry expert who works at the intersection of oral microbiome health, airway development, systemic inflammation, and childhood wellness. Her work reveals how oral bacteria, nutrient deficiencies, mouth breathing, and early feeding patterns influence everything from infertility to early childhood cavities.If you're trying to conceive, pregnant, or raising babies or toddlers, this is a must-watch masterclass on how mouth health is truly whole-body health.

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.

There's really something pretty amazing about giving birth.   I mean, you are actually using your body to grow a whole new human, and then this new person comes into the world, and your whole life changes. For many people, being pregnant is a time filled with happy anticipation. You've probably heard people talk about this thing called the “pregnancy glow”, and it's a real thing.   In spite of the discomfort, and nausea, and unusual food cravings and everything else that sometimes comes with having a baby inside you, the thought of holding that brand new human in your arms – your child – that's often the thing that can help you get through it.   Mariela was pregnant. She and her husband, Stephen, were excited about growing their family.   Then, partway through the pregnancy, things got complicated.   Facebook groups recommended by Mariela: Healthy Otherwise is a Fort Worth based Breast Cancer Support Group and Community – https://www.facebook.com/groups/1337164927864563/   Pregnant With Cancer Support Group – https://www.facebook.com/groups/1337164927864563/   If you'd like to contact, she's in the WWTL Facebook group – https://WhatWasThatLike.com/facebook   Full show notes and pictures for this episode are here: https://WhatWasThatLike.com/237   Graphics for this episode by Bob Bretz.
