You Don't Always Have to Say NO to Drugs! Epidurals, Spinal Blocks, and more, with an Anesthesiologist!

Thinking about labor and delivery is a LOT. How is that giant baby getting OUT!?? And more importantly… how badly is it gonna hurt?? After all the dramatic labor scenes we see in movies over the course of our lives, it’s no wonder that by the time we have our own babies, there's been a ton fo build up for that moment! Along with the excitement of meeting that new baby, come so many questions - including the many options for pain intervention during labor… this week, we have a real live anesthesiologist join us to answer our (and your) biggest questions about labor and delivery drugs! Epidurals, c-sections, and more... do they slow down labor? How late in labor can you decide to get an epidural? Why can’t we eat? And what do we not really need to worry about? Plus, Corri, Kaela & Jen share some of their own weird experiences! Our friend Allison Overmon, M.D., has all the answers!  Got a story about your labor/delivery drugs, or a question for our anesthesiologist? Hit us up!    http://www.instagram.com/himynameismomofficial http://www.facebook.com/himynameismomofficial http://www.himynameismom.com

Jen Mayer Kulp, Corri English, and Kaela Kinney pull their real life mom convos up in front of a mic so that moms can feel seen, heard, and included… without judgement. It‘s the place for a fun, feel-good hang - where we don’t care if you breast or bottle feed, co-sleep or cry it out, sanitize a paci until it spontaneously combusts or lick it and put it straight back in baby’s mouth. The common thread is loving the crap out of these tiny humans we get to raise, while also sharing in the fact that it’s hard as sh*t. We aren’t experts, just mommas, living right in the thick of mom life. Connect with us: [email protected]
