Healthy As A Mother

#93: Dr. Leah's Postpartum & Dr. Morgan's Preconception Care


Listen Later

Welcome to Season 7 in this life update episode where Dr. Leah shares all about how her second postpartum has been, now that her son is 1 month. She shares how, despite the birth and cesarean recovery and problems with his latch, she is thriving in postpartum. We discuss how various phases of motherhood can be so different for women, and possible reasons for it too - based on hormonal constitutions, recovery, complications, and more. Then Dr. Morgan discusses how her husband and her are potentially considering a fifth baby - even though they felt completely done after their fourth was born. It's been a heart-opening experience having their fourth here. She shares the fears, hopes, and layers of complexity around making this decision for their family and how they plan to approach it with a strong 6-month preconception plan first. We really are right there with you all in this family-building era - the ups, downs, high highs, and low lows. Let's dive in!
