Ladies this one’s for you! If you grew up in my generation or older, you probably didn't get a lot of information given to you about your body. You probably had to ask a friend or read an article in Seventeen magazine that gave you a very one-sided piece of information as your answer.  And now, the same generation of women who had limited information on their own bodies are now mothering girls, and how do we feel equipped to share with them if we are still uncertain ourselves?

Yes we can Google just about anything, but if you Google the same question enough times you’re likely to find 5 different answers that all promise to be right.

Today I have my own OBGYN Dr. Kristin Daniel here to set the record straight on an array of topics that we AND our daughters have to deal with.

We go through the spectrum, starting with puberty and periods (when should you take your daughter for an exam?) to birth control and conceiving (when do we start to worry?), STD’s (how and often do we screen for those?) pregnancy & recovery, postpartum depression and of course… menopause.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed either with your own body or with how to handle dealing with your daughter's as she enters the tween years, you’re going to Iove this episode.
