195 Jenna Slot is back! Baby #4 with a L&D nurse from the busiest L&D unit in the USA
Manage episode 417069072 series 2987250
This is a follow up birth story with baby #4 with Jenna Slot of the oh so popular episode 41 where we discuss her surprise PFO diagnosis.
That episode was republished just before this one in Episode 194.
In Jenna's words: "We'll talk about my 4th birth story, which started with my water breaking in the elevator at work (work for me is as a labor and delivery nurse!). I also talk about becoming an exclusive pumper when he refused to nurse (or couldn't nurse) because that was a hard pill to swallow after having successfully nursed 3 babies. Also, my mom was at this birth and then shortly after was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer, so I was also dealing with immense grief during my postpartum period. I think both grief and exclusive pumping are topics worth discussing when they are present in pregnancy and postpartum!!"
3 Key takeaways from the podcast that listeners will learn today:
Point 1 - sometimes a baby will not nurse even if you try absolutely everything. And it's ok to feel sad about that!
Point 2 - late epidurals and....why not!?!
Point 3 - All birth stories are different. How unique my 4th one was compared to the first 3.
3 Keywords that people would want to search when looking for content that you would provide in this episode:
Point 1 - regarding water breaking and confirmation - manicure, ferning
Point 2 - exclusive pumping, lactation consulting, issues transferring milk
Point 3 - late epidurals
Favorite baby product or new motherhood product? What would you buy for someone who was currently pregnant or a new parent?:
I LOVED the solly wrap and the ergo carrier.
Summary of guest experience – Who are you?
I'm an L&D nurse in West Michigan. I'm also a recently graduated and credentialed Women's Health Nurse Practitioner. I live near Grand Rapids, MI.
