The Messy Mama Podcast

24. Plus Size Pregnancy + Birth and Trusting Your Body


Listen Later

There is an alarming amount of false information on the internet that has lead us to believe that women who exist in larger bodies are incapable of having a healthy pregnancy and delivery.

There is also an alarming amount of women who have had traumatic or negative experiences with healthcare providers, leaving them feeling anxious and uncomfortable to seek medical help.

This week we are hearing from Jen McLellan, host of The Plus Mommy Podcast and a plus size pregnancy and birth educator. She is on a mission to change the way healthcare providers see and treat women in large bodies, and help moms feel confident in their ability to carry and birth their babies.

Join us as Jen shares her story of being an advocate for plus size women and what her journey to motherhood and learning to not only accept, but love herself has looked like!
