21 | I’ve Delivered 3,000+ Babies… Here’s What to Do When You Get a Positive Pregnancy Test
I’ve delivered over 3,000 babies as an OBGYN — and here’s what I tell every mama who gets a positive pregnancy test.
That little pink line can bring up a lot of feelings: joy, anxiety, fear, excitement, or all of the above. If you just found out you’re pregnant, you might be wondering: Now what? In this video, I walk you through the first steps you need to take — both emotionally and practically — so you can start your pregnancy journey feeling informed, empowered, and supported.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How to process your emotions without guilt or shame
- Why repeating your pregnancy test is important
- Which prenatal vitamins actually matter (folic acid, choline, DHA, iron)
- How to choose the right OB provider for YOU (not just who’s available)
- When to schedule your first prenatal appointment
- Safe lifestyle changes around medications, drinking, smoking, exercise & water intake
- Why sleep and hydration are critical for early pregnancy health
This isn’t just about a test — it’s about setting the foundation for your entire pregnancy. Whether you’re navigating Black maternal health challenges, pregnancy advocacy, birth planning, or simply wanting to optimize your maternal health, this guide is here for you.
👩🏾⚕️ Hosted by Dr. Tiffany Woodus, OBGYN, wife, mama, and advocate for eliminating Black maternal health disparities.
