Sis, this week we are talking about pregnancy and how to prepare for and foster a healthy birthing process from your team, to your diet, to supporting yourself before and after the process. Tune in to this episode which is like a pregnancy masterclass, to find out common nutrition and lifestyle myths about pregnancy, nutrients that are important to monitor for a healthy pregnancy, the benefits of having a doula, how to curate your birthing team, common challenges and misconceptions about breastfeeding, the differences between hospital birthing and birthing at home.

In this show I will go into some nutrients and common myths about pregnancy, and  later will speak to Brandi Sellerz, Doula, Founder of #NotSoPrivateParts & Co-Founder of Moms in Color, who can break down some of the common things we may not know about pregnancy.

Grab your #quarantine snacks, call your mommy-to-be friends, and learn together:

  • What is a doula and the benefits of having one
  • Questions to ask health care providers who may be on your birthing team
  • Great books and resources to use to research pregnancy
  • What is postpartum anxiety and how to cope after birthing
  • Common challenges and misconceptions about breastfeeding
  • The differences between hospital birthing with medication, unmedicated birthing, and birthing at home
