Day 5 Be Ready So you Don't have to Get Ready
From the moment women pee on that stick and see a positive indicator, they are instantly in love with the ball of cell growing in their belly or someone else’s belly. I mean surrogacy is a thing. But how many of us really prepare ourselves before we start trying? How many of us as the hard questions with truthful answers? Do you even know what questions you should be asking yourself or those that take care of you?
If you’re trying for a pregnancy or not doing anything to prevent one you really need to ask yourself these questions. “Are you healthy enough to take on pregnancy” or “Is your hypertension under control” or “Are you on medications that could be harmful to you or the baby during pregnancy” or “Is your diabetes well controlled”. Another biggy that many of my patients don’t want to talk about is “will my weight play a significant role in my pregnancy, labor, and delivery”? And I'm not only talking about obesity. These are all questions that should be asked and answered before pregnancy. Yes, for most women, it’s exciting to get pregnant but Mommas, I want you to see it to the end. I want you to enjoy the Mature Momma life with your kids. As beautiful as pregnancy is, it can kill you if you’re not optimized to your best health. As one of my good friends recently said, “Pregnancy is like having one foot inside a grave”. Scary, but so true. Your body is so vulnerable. So many systems are stretched and challenged during those 40 weeks. Things can change so quickly and if you’re not optimized before pregnancy and monitored appropriately during pregnancy, you could lose your life.

Day 7 I Choose You
I know we are told that the biggest decision as a woman is who we choose, if we do, to spend the rest of our lives with. And that’s very true when you think of life goals, financial goal, career goals, etc. but next to that, if you choose to have a family, the biggest decision is who will take care of you before pregnancy, during pregnancy, during labor and delivery and then postpartum. Oh my goodness. I didn’t realize how big of a deal this was until I was deep into my training. Yall, I have seen the good, the great, the amazing, the bad, the ugly, and the WTF. 99% of my colleagues are amazing women and men that have devoted their life (Yes their LIFE) to women and the life of their unborn. 99% of us take you into our hearts and treat you like family.
Obstetrical providers that aren’t the same but for different reasons. It could be training, or bias, race, cultural, upbringing, or whatever. It is your duty as a Momma to make sure you are putting the life of yourself and your child in the best trained person you have in your area. You want a physician or midwife that views your life and the life of your child as a priority.
On this episode, I'm going to give tips on how to find the perfect and safest Obstetrical team and birthing facility for you.
