EP 131: Real Mom Talk: Breastfeeding and Dirty Looks Jan 16, 2018

Show notes

After reading an email from one of our super mamas about a collective she belongs to (MOCA- Mothers of Colors in Academia) that fights and advocates for parenting students rights and who are currently fighting for more lactation rooms in UCLA, we realized it was important to talk more about breastfeeding and everything that comes with it. Paulina is going through the journey once again with baby Zixta and after having a great experience in Mexico, she came back to totally different experience here in the US.

There is still a long journey to #normalizebreastfeeding, but regardless of our preference, we need to support one another and accept the choices we each make.

EP 123: Paulina and Zixta's Birth Story Oct 24, 2017

Show notes

Paulina took a break from maternity leave to share Zixta’s incredible birth story. She talks us through the highs and lows of postpartum, how’s she adjusting day-by-day and goes in-depth hour-by-hour of her labor. From when her mucus plug expelled in the bathroom with Krista, to Ramiro jumping into the pool with her and to having all three daughters around her. This was everything Paulina envisioned for herself and Zixta. Paulina also reminds us that preparing for postpartum is as important as preparing for labor. We constantly need to take care ourselves and seek support from our community. As Bricia’s life coach says, “you either speak towards what you want or against what you don't want. The focus will cause your feelings.”
