Cynthia and Trisha are back with the March Q&A episode! This one kicks off with a fun discussion on things that our Instagram followers think people should know but don’t—like how, when you say you’re eating a kiwi, you’re actually referring to either a kiwi bird or, worse, a person from New Zealand!

In today’s Q&A episode, we answer these questions:

1. Do I need to schedule a cesarean at 40 weeks if I’m planning a VBAC? My OB says I do.
2. How do I know when it’s time to wean from breastfeeding, and how can I do it without feeling guilty?
3. What are my options if my state says it’s illegal to give birth at home after a previous cesarean?

In the extended, ad-free version, available on Patreon and Apple subscriptions, we cover:

• My second birth was only 45 minutes long, and my baby was born in the car on the way to the hospital. How can I prevent or better prepare for a rapid birth with my third baby?
• Will dropping a pumping session with my eleven-week-old baby affect my milk supply?
• How long is too long to wait to deliver the placenta, and how can I help it come out more quickly?

Finally, in the "quickies" segment, we touch on a variety of topics, including alternatives to Pitocin, botox while breastfeeding, swimming in public pools during the third trimester, finances & family planning, and dealing with the awkward situation of being told your baby can't attend a baby shower—and much more!
