Since May is Preeclampsia Awareness Month, we talk on this episode about what preeclampsia is and how it affects pregnant women. This condition can actually lead to very serious effects, such as seizures and even death, so it's imperative that pregnant women know the signs of preeclampsia as soon as possible so that it can be addressed quickly. I also explain that the health of both the expecting mom and baby need to be closely addressed if preeclampsia occurs. I am joined with my co-host and good friend, Touseef Mirza.

Today we are discussing different pregnancy complications and diagnosis that can come up while you are growing your bundle of joy! Whether you have been suffering from non-stop nausea and wondering if it could be HG, just got diagnosed with gestational diabetes or suffering from high blood pressure...

When pregnancy complications threaten the life of the mother, what does the Catholic Church actually teach? In this episode, Karlo Broussard clarifies the Church's position on morally complex medical cases. He explains the principle of double effect, what treatments are permissible, and why direct abortion is never considered a moral solution—even in rare or tragic circumstances. If you've heard myths about what the Church requires in these cases, this episode brings clarity and compassion.

 Abortion is illegal in Idaho, which borders Oregon to the east. For years leading up to the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, women’s health advocates warned that maternal care and abortion services were part of an intrinsically woven set of OB/GYN care that women’s health depended on. Now that Idaho has outlawed abortion – the state's ban is among the most restrictive in the nation – residents are living out what advocates predicted. Some women who want to have children can now no longer get maternal care where they live, and some have suffered complications during pregnancies they desperately wanted to take to term but could not, because of their own health or fetal anomalies. Jen Jackson Quintano lives in North Idaho with her husband and two children and runs a tree service business. She began a storytelling effort she calls the Pro Voice Project, for women to tell their own stories about accessing – or not being able to access – reproductive health services. The project has held live performances mostly around Idaho for women to tell their own stories at the microphone. In some cases where they haven't felt comfortable doing so, their stories are performed by actors. Desi Ballis and her husband lost their third child, Tucker, a year ago, in the second trimester when the couple discovered he had a life-threatening condition. Ballis, who lives in Haley, Idaho, was at risk of life-threatening complications before she made it to Utah to have a medically necessary abortion. In Idaho, she would not have been able to get that care until she was actively dying. Ballis and Quintano join us to share their personal experiences and what they hope to achieve by sharing some of the most painful experiences of their lives. Members of the Pro Voice Project will be in Portland March 1 for an event that highlights women’s stories in Idaho and in Oregon, where women face no state restrictions on abortion, but some still struggle with other barriers to access.

Ciarra and Samantha have special guest midwife Leonora Colen back discuss the complexities of high-risk pregnancies.

The discussion also underscores the significance of childbirth education and the need for trust between expectant parents and their healthcare providers.

Sometimes people want to try to get labor moving with more natural labor induction techniques before they get to the point of being faced with a medical induction. Due dates are given more weight with some providers than with others.

Returning after sharing her recurrent pregnancy loss journey with us in episode 83, Xenia shares pregnancy after loss and the emotional and physical complications of that pregnancy. The Miscarriage Doula is an online service and resource for people who are navigating pregnancy loss. Learn more at themiscarriagedoula.co -- Since we last spoke with her, she worked on processing her recurrent pregnancy loss experience and took a break from trying to conceive. She also named the two babies and purchased tangible artwork to hang in her home. Other life events that have happened; moving, trouble with her job, in the UK the government now issues certificates for losses before 20 weeks (they previously didn't). In the Summer, she learned that she was pregnant again and was visiting her family in Eastern Europe where she had access to early pregnancy care. She had to go on a diabetic diet early in the first trimester, and watched her thyroid, as well as adding in a blood thinner due to a blood clotting concern. Around 11 weeks, she woke up covered in blood which was triggering so she called an ambulance to take her to the emergency room. A male OB immediately says that it's a miscarriage but an ultrasound (and other care in the hospital) confirms that the baby has a heartbeat but they see a large bleed. She's then admitted to the hospital for care. In the hospital, she learned that she had a low-lying placenta which was causing the bleeding and the hope was the placenta would move up as she progressed in her pregnancy. She had to stay at her parent's house (hours and hours of flights away) for many weeks without her husband. The rest of pregnancy was mostly smooth sailing and her baby (a boy!) was breech. Her birth was a planned/scheduled cesarean and her son is 8 months old at the time of recording. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/arden-cartrette/support

Tune into this podcast episode where we learn about the benefits of the amniotic sac with Lisa Kestler of Hill Country Placentas! Whether or not someone wants to encapsulate their placenta, that can donate the portion of the amniotic sac to help people heal. Bandages that help heal persistent wounds are being made with the amniotic sac. Lisa has been involved in the birth world for over two decades. She was a NICU Respiratory Therapist for five years before deciding that her true passion lies with helping mothers. She first heard about placenta encapsulation from a Canadian midwife in 2009 and in 2011 finished her first of two placenta encapsulation certifications. She obtained her second certification in 2015 and during that same year opened the first stand-alone commercial kitchen solely dedicated to placentas in the central Texas area. Lisa was also instrumental in having the Texas state law changed in 2015. This law requires that all hospitals in Texas give the mother her placenta if she requests it. Before this law, hospitals could require a court order if a mother wanted to keep her placenta. In 2023 Lisa completed her Master of Science in clinical mental health counseling at Texas Tech and is an associate licensed professional counselor in Texas. As a mother to seven children (six living,) Lisa understands the challenges that pregnancy, birth, and postpartum bring. Lisa has dedicated her life and career to helping new mothers have the best postpartum recovery possible. Special offer for listeners: $25.00 off encapsulation package for mentioning Birth Baby Podcast under referral on their reservation page!  Website: www.hillcountryplacentas.com Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/hillcountryplacentas Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/hillcountryplacentas This episode is sponsored by Tree of Life Breastmilk Jewelry.

Janet Jones and Lauren Reyes, IBCLCs and co-founders of Breastfeeding Success, join us to talk about how breastfeeding support has evolved and changed over time. We talk about the ancestral practices and how they differ from modern practices. Breastfeeding Success is a minority and woman owned company established in 2014 with the mission to provide access to high quality lactation care and education to all families regardless of income or insurance. Because of this mission, they never turn any family away. In 2023, close to 50% of the service they provided was uncompensated care. They are the largest provider of lactation services and employer of IBCLCs in the state of Texas with services spanning from Dallas/Fort Worth to Kyle Texas. On average, they serve 4,000 families each month with compassionate, evidence based, patient-centered care. JANET JONES, IBCLC, RLCCo-CEO, Chief Culture OfficerAn International Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) since 2009, Janet is a former Breastfeeding Peer Counselor and Women Infants Children (WIC) participant. She cares deeply about equitable access to lactation care, and strives to remove barriers to lactation care — both for families who need it and for a diverse field of individuals who feel called to provide it. Janet serves the International Lactation Consultant Association (ILCA) as Treasurer, and has four breastfed children. She enjoys nurturing all sorts of growing things, from families and babies to her backyard garden and sourdough starter. LAUREN REYES, IBCLC, RLCCo-CEO, Chief Innovation Officer Lauren has been in the lactation field since 2004 and an IBCLC since 2009. Proud to have started her career as a WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counselor, Lauren believes that the lactation profession is strongest when providers reflect diverse education and demographic backgrounds.

On this episode, we have special guest Jacqueline Berg Ramsey. She is the founder of Fresh Test, LLC - a natural FemCare company based in Los Angeles CA. Fresh Test, LLC, founded in 2018, launched a more natural diagnostic glucose beverage which has been begged for by healthcare providers, laboratories and women for decades. Ciarra and Samantha often have birth doula clients that don't want to drink the glucola drink and have been thrilled with the option of using the Fresh Test! Jacqueline shares her knowledge and helps answer some common questions we hear about this test. Website: http://Thefreshtest.comSocials: @‌thefreshtestDiscount Code: Get 10% off when you use code BIRTHBABY With 15 years of work in Endocrinology, Obstetrics and OUS Medical Device Business Development, Jacquie was poised fortuitously to enter the Gestational Diabetes market. The founder's passion for this start-up was sparked when she was asked to drink traditional "glucola" in her 1st pregnancy; Jacquie was shocked by the product's dyes, flavoring, BVO and unnecessary preservatives. Like many other women, Jacquie was accustomed to reading labels, and because of her background in diabetes education, she refused to drink the 1970s formulated glucose beverage.  We laugh because Jacquie is known for eating termites and grasshoppers on the CBS Show, Survivor (where she also met her husband) yet refused Glucola. After bouncing around from OB to OB she decided to take on the challenge of launching a more natural and palatable version of the glucose beverage used in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus screening. Throughout the founder's career in Fortune 500 Medical Device companies, Jacquie's “why” has been strengthening the voice of female patients.  This has created a strong brand for The Fresh Test™ - evident in the company's rapid growth.  In addition, Jacquie's business development experience, outside the USA, has lent itself to a robust global perspective in Women's Healthcare.  The Fresh Test® is now one of the top 3 glucose beverage brands in the USA and expects to be in Canada and the UK within the year.Jacquie lives in Los Angeles CA. She has two kids (5 and 7) who often help with The Fresh Test® and use the lemonade at their lemonade stands. She grew up in Minnesota and received her bachelor's degree in Business/Healthcare Management at UW Madison. She's remarried her husband 20 times in 20 different countries, was on the show Survivor and a Japanese game show called Spinsanity.  Thank you to our sponsor, Milk Diva.www.MilkDiva.comIG - @milk_diva Please feel free to reach out to us with any recommendations for show episode ideas.

What's Best? Breast? Or Fed? As a new parent, it can be overwhelming to hear these slogans and discern what is best for your own family and situation. Janet Jones and Lauren Reyes from Breastfeeding Success in Austin, Texas join us on this episode to help break down what these slogans mean. The Breast is Best campaign was an effort to raise public awareness of the health benefits of breastfeeding, but it has faced criticism for creating guilt and pressure on parents. The Fed is Best movement emerged as a response to address the diverse needs and challenges of infant feeding. It emphasizes the importance of supporting families in making informed choices and providing high-quality lactation support. The conversation also highlights the need for healthcare providers to offer non-judgmental support and prioritize lactation support for all families. About our guest, Janet Jones, IBCLC, RLCCo-CEO, Chief Culture OfficerAn International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) since 2009, Janet is a former Breastfeeding Peer Counselor and Women Infants Children (WIC) participant. She cares deeply about equitable access to lactation care and strives to remove barriers to lactation care — both for families who need it and for a diverse field of individuals who feel called to provide it. Janet serves the International Lactation Consultant Association (ILCA) as Treasurer and has four breastfed children. She enjoys nurturing all sorts of growing things, from families and babies to her backyard garden and sourdough starter. About our guest, Lauren Reyes, IBCLC, RLC Co-CEO, Chief Innovation Officer Lauren has been in the lactation field since 2004 and an IBCLC since 2009. Proud to have started her career as a WIC Breastfeeding Peer Counselor, Lauren believes that the lactation profession is strongest when providers reflect diverse education and demographic backgrounds. Lauren is a past board member of United States Lactation Consultants Association (USLCA) and a breastfed breastfeeder of five beautiful sons. On weekends, you'll find Lauren driving kids around Central Texas, training for her next half-marathon, and learning about new tools for her various home improvement projects. To learn more about Breastfeeding Success, go to www.BFSuccess.com IG: @breastfeedingsuccess This episode is sponsored by Tree of Life Breastmilk Jewelry.
