Crash Course in Prenatal Health with Jackie from Perfectly Pregnant Collective | Ep. 21


prenatal health explained

This week on the Learning To Mom Podcast, I ask OB Nurse Practitioner Jackie, ALL my questions related to prenatal health!

Today’s episode is going to cover:

  • What is an OB nurse practitioner, how does that differ from an OBGYN? What are the pros to seeing an OB nurse practitioner over a midwife or an MD?

  • Where do you see a lot of birth education going wrong/where there is a large gap?

  • What are some practical tips or advice for women who want to have a positive birth experience but may not know where to start?

  • When can you switch providers in your pregnancy if you don’t like them?

  • What are some of the best questions to ask your OB or OB nurse practitioner during visits?

  • How do you switch providers during pregnancy?

  • What do you need to make sure you’re doing in pregnancy?

  • What are some ways women can get their partners more involved or supportive during pregnancy?

  • What things should you include on a birth plan? 

  • How can one be the best possible advocate for themselves during birth?

  • What are some things that women don’t consider or plan for regarding childbirth, that they should?

Special thanks to this week’s advertiser, Nourish Meal Delivery!

One of the BIGGEST game changers for your postpartum recovery is well… TWO things. ONE, Eating NUTRIENT dense, HEALTHY food that serves you well in postpartum and TWO, resting- which means you taking the time off from cooking. Which is why I believe Nourish is the postpartum game changer you need as it addresses both of points in ONE. Nourish Meal Delivery offers anti-inflammatory, allergy-free, organic postpartum meals right to your door. Their ingredients are washed with electrolyzed ionized water, ensuring the highest quality. They use galactagogues to boost milk production and nurture lactation and manage sugar levels with Ayurvedic herbs to speed healing after childbirth and throughout your postpartum journey. I will yell about how awesome Nourish is from the rooftops!
