Send us a text
Welcome to the May Q&A with Cynthia & Trisha. If you have been wondering what you should plan to eat after giving birth, we've got the answers in today's episode, and we think they'll surprise you! For today's regular episode, we answer the following:
- Can you remove an epidural for pushing?
- Can the cervix swell shut if you push before it is fully dilated?
- Can you prevent a tear in a precipitous birth when the baby comes flying out?
- Can I still have a VBAC if I had a big baby and didn't dilate in my first birth? Is it possible that my body doesn't go into labor?
- Does delayed cord clamping cause jaundice?
- Is there anything that can be done to prevent tearing in a precipitous birth
In the extended version, available on Apple subscriptions and Patreon, we further discuss:
- Anxiety around the anticipation of your second birth;
- current evidence on stillbirth rates after age 35 (all the data!); and
- breastfeeding through pregnancy and into tandem nursing.
Finally, in quickies, we touch on sushi in pregnancy, bleeding too much and cord clamping, when a baby can first have water, how to lower fasting blood sugars, and so much more plus...how Cynthia and Trisha met.
Oh, and one more thing: Are you a folder or a squisher with your TP habits?
