Well, Now: Overcoming a Complicated Pregnancy
For many, pregnancy is a time of heightened and joyful anticipation. There are doctor’s appointments, tests, preparation…All with a focus on bringing home a healthy baby.
The other side of pregnancy–the complications–is not readily discussed.
On this week’s episode of Well, Now we discuss all of these potential roadblocks with economist Emily Oster. In her latest book The Unexpected: Navigating Pregnancy During and After Complications, she arms patients with the data they need to advocate for themselves in their appointments.

Well, Now is hosted by Kavita Patel, MD and Maya Feller, MS, RD, CDN.
Podcast production by Vic Whitley-Berry with editorial oversight by Alicia Montgomery.
