  • #57: Pregnancy Nausea + Postpartum Fog: An Update From the Doctors
    Apr 10 2024

    We love deep-diving into various topics surrounding the journey into and throughout motherhood, not only because we have chosen women's reproductive and perinatal health as our medical specialties, but because we are mothers ourselves - going through this all right alongside you. This week we chat about Dr. Leah's early pregnancy symptoms and discuss the difficulties of pregnancy nausea, or "morning sickness," while also outlining several helpful strategies to try. She discusses how she's feeling overall, as well as her plans for this birth. Then Dr. Morgan details what it has been like coming out of the intensity of the early postpartum months, and how life is flowing with her fourth baby. Thank you for being with us on these journeys!
