#15. How To Care For Yourself and Your Heart After Miscarriage or Stillbirth
10/19/23 • 34 min
In honor of October being pregnancy loss awareness month, this episode of The Labor Room Podcast reveals my own personal story with miscarriage and pregnancy loss and the tips that helped me recover and heal my heart after miscarriage x4.
This episode on miscarriage is based off of a post that I wrote years ago after I had my first miscarriage. If you'd like to read the original post, keep in mind that it's from a perspective of having only one child while now I have three. But the tips still hold true.

Every mother heals differently after miscarriage or stillbirth. This episode reflects the things that I would tell my closest friend or sister if a miscarriage or still birth were to happen to her. That doesn't mean that these methods of grieving or healing will be what works for you and your process. My heart goes out to each and every one of you that have experienced any number of losses at any gestation. The pain is something that cannot be explained.

#14. What Does Postpartum Success Look Like & How Can You Prepare For It During Your Pregnancy with Marissa Bergman
In this episode of The Labor Room Podcast, I got to interview Marissa Bergman, a wife, mom to (almost) 3 girls, RN and small town birth & postpartum educator who believes that the transition into motherhood is one of the most important seasons of our lives and is a life event worth preparing for.
For many new moms, the postpartum season looks like postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression and for some...postpartum rage. After a traumatic labor and delivery or birth experience, postpartum can be a season that makes you feel like you're drowning in overwhelm. But why? Does it have to be this way?
In this episode, we talk about how you can set yourself up for postpartum success while you're preparing for a new baby as a first time mom or a seasoned pro that's just looking for ways to make her postpartum season more restorative and healing than it was the first time.
Tune in to find ways that you can prepare for postpartum and change the narrative for postpartum mothers everywhere.

#16. VBAC home birth? How she got there. A Birth Story By Britt Havens
Welcome back to the labor room podcast. Today you get to hear from Britt Havens, a mom of four who shares her birth stories from her first baby that was born via cesarean section all the way down to her eventual VBAC at home with her 4th baby. Britt touches on how the cascade of interventions in the hospital contributed to her ultimate cesarean birth while also reminding us that hospital birth is absolutely the right choice for some people, every birth story is unique, and each mother gets to write her own story one birth at a time.
In this episode you hear about things like making the decision to have a home birth, how she accomplished her successful VBAC, birth plans, prodromal labor, Chorioamnionitis, epidural headache, and more.
