  • A treasure trove of information

    I’m a little bit of an information junkie, and this podcast fills my need for a constant stream of perinatal education. So many great speakers, great topics, and deep dives into my favorite subjects. As a local perinatal provider, I’m going to start recommending this podcast to all of my clients!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Registry Must-Have: Choosing the Right Swaddle or Sleep Sack
Q: When should a baby transition from a swaddle to a sleep sack, and why?
Typically between 8 and 12 weeks, especially as babies begin to roll; a sleep sack allows safer movement and reduces the risk of suffocation or restricted mobility when the baby is able to roll.
Registry Must-Have: Choosing the Right Swaddle or Sleep Sack
Q: What exactly are swaddles and why do so many parents use them in the early days?
Swaddles mimic the womb by keeping babies snug and warm, reducing startles and helping them sleep more peacefully, which supports easier settling and longer stretches of rest for both baby and parents.
Maria's Birth Story: From Infertility to Motherhood
Q: Starting from the pregnancy journey, what were the major steps you took to prepare for birth and choose a care provider?
Maria describes a careful progression from home birth hopes to considering birth centers and finally settling with an OB after being risked out of options; she emphasizes the importance of a provider who explains the data behind decisions and listens to patient concerns.
The ABCs of Safe Sleep for Babies
Q: So to start us off, what are the ABCs of safe sleep?
The ABCs are Alone, Back, and Crib: keep the baby alone on a hard sleep surface, place them on their back to sleep unless they can roll over on their own, and use a crib or bassinet with a firm, flat mattress and snug sheets; avoid bed sharing and avoid sleep products that are not safe sleep surfaces.
Registry Must-Have: How to Choose the Right Baby Bottle
Q: How many bottles should families start with and what about different sizes?
If exclusively bottle feeding is planned, start with more bottles; for combo feeding, begin with a smaller set and add more later, aiming for a few different taper-nipple variants and avoiding brands with problematic marketing or slow flows.
