This is when the idea of a pregnancy meets the reality of one, and it doesn't always go how we expected. We do mention miscarriage in these first few episodes and discuss fears surrounding that, so if that's something you don't want to listen to maybe skip ahead a few weeks!

Show notes

Join the cohosts of the Milk Minute Podcast as they take you Beyond the Boob to embark on another pregnancy journey! That's right, this time it's Heather's turn to overshare about her body for a whole 40 weeks. Listen in for the prenatal education you aren't getting with your provider as Maureen (the midwife!) guides Heather through the adventure of growing a new human and planning a homebirth. This show combines a little science, some midwifery, and a whole lot of hilarious stories as you get to tune in on the TMI side of podcasting with Beyond the Boob.
