Induction of labor is an increasingly more and more common birth intervention that many women experience today. There are several medically indicated reasons for induction, as well as many situations where women may be offered or even coerced into induction - where there isn't beneficial evidence to back it up. This week on the podcast Dr. Morgan got to interview Dr. Rebecca Dekker of the well-known blog and podcast called Evidence Based Birth, all about various aspects of labor induction. We discuss the Arrive trial, big babies, risks for postpartum hemorrhage, the evidence on eating and drinking, and more. Enjoy!

Feeding ourselves and our families healthy, home-cooked meals can feel like a daunting task - especially when the planning and prepping revolve around caring for young children, too. But the reality is, you're going to still expend the time to make some kind of meal, anyway - it'll likely just feel stressful and end up less nourishing than you'd hoped for. In this episode, Dr. Morgan interviews Cassy Joy Garcia from Fed + Fit, and New York Times best-selling author of three different meal planning cookbooks, about her methods for preparing meals for her family with three young children - in a way that saves time and money, while also reducing food waste and building in the flexibility for something like a spontaneous pizza night. We feel WAY lighter and more inclined to take on a new habit like this, given the way Cassy outlines it, and we hope you feel the inspiration, as well.

Low libido, or the desire to want to engage in intimacy, is way more common than you think. One of the root causes of low libido is painful sex. Today we dive deep into painful sex, what causes it, what happens to the body when pain rather than pleasure is someone's experience, and what to do about it. This topic is near and dear to Dr. Leah's heart since she has navigated painful sex for years and years. She has learned so much along her journey and she can't wait to share with you so that you don't have to experience the same struggles she did. We can't wait for you to glean all of this knowledge and wisdom.

Today Dr. Morgan interviews Dr. Dan Bruce, an airway-focused dentist, as we break down how the shape of the roof of our mouth, called our palate, together with our tongue positioning can affect many areas of our lives, starting in infancy. The palate and tongue don't just affect things like eating and speaking. These parts of our bodies are central to health, and in this episode, we discuss the connection of how these parts of our mouth affect the growth and look of our entire face, how we breathe well (or not), if we have negative health outcomes like sleep apnea, and how it can contribute to behavioral problems like ADHD.

Getting sick while either pregnant or breastfeeding totally sucks. Not only is it hard to grow or care for young children while not feeling well, but it can also be tricky to navigate how to support yourself during this time. You may have questions like what are safe, natural ways I can help my immune system during this time? Which herbs, homeopathy, and supplements are best for what scenarios? Will the things I take affect my baby? These are all valid, and we hope this episode leaves you with practical tools and info so you know exactly what you can be doing, should you start to feel run down.

Today we talk all about PCOS, mold, and when IVF may not be needed with Dr. Natalie Underberg. PCOS is one of the leading contributors to female infertility, yet the conventional model doesn't do a very good job supporting women who are experiencing this complex syndrome. Dr. Natalie breaks it down and shares what she often recommends from a holistic perspective, the role mold may be playing in your fertility struggles, and why IVF may not be needed, even if you have been told that is your only option.
