  • Out of touch

    I’m surprised to see so many people saying this podcast is relatable, when Sarah is clearly out of touch with the reality of how most working class mothers live. The constant talk of massages, facials, housekeepers, hiring a handyman, a nanny, etc. is not met with any acknowledgment that those are luxuries and not the norm. It made the podcast almost unbearable and left me feeling more annoyed than informed.

  • This Podcast Just Gets It

    I started listening when I was expecting, and it hits differently now that I’m actually in it. Motherhood is beautiful but also exhausting and emotional, and I love that Sarah talks about all of it — not just the highlight reel. Thanks for making such a relatable podcast🤍

  • Honest Humor!

    I started listening to Bottle Service during my pregnancy and the content continues to deliver well over a couple of years later. Sarah is beautifully honest, actually no-shame, and delightfully humorous. Thank you, Sarah, for creating this podcast!

  • Grounded in Reality

    I just want to say I love listening to this podcast as a new-ish mom. I loved Sarah’s approach to the new year’s reset and goal setting. Sometimes it feels like the mom content out there is all or nothing or sooo aspirational it’s not real for the “everyday” person. Sarah inspires me but also makes me feel like I’m not alone. Us moms carry so much and we’re doing our best! Thank you!! ❤️❤️

Preclampsia Awareness! Risks, Red Flags & Prevention with Lia Butler
Q: What treatment options exist if preeclampsia is diagnosed?

Preclampsia Awareness! Risks, Red Flags & Prevention with Lia Butler
Q: What risk factors increase the likelihood of developing preeclampsia?
Risk factors include prior preeclampsia, chronic hypertension, kidney disease, autoimmune conditions, diabetes, age over 35, obesity, family history, carrying multiples, long gaps between pregnancies, and lifestyle factors like diet and environment.
Preclampsia Awareness! Risks, Red Flags & Prevention with Lia Butler
Q: What is preeclampsia and how common is it?
Preeclampsia is a hypertensive disorder of pregnancy characterized by high blood pressure and signs of organ stress, often the kidneys or liver. It can develop after 20 weeks and may present with subtle symptoms, making education and monitoring essential.
The Postpartum to Perimenopause Pipeline
Q: When might someone consider hormone replacement therapy?
Therapy is considered when symptoms persist for months and significantly affect daily life despite lifestyle measures; it should be discussed with a knowledgeable provider who can tailor therapy to the individual's hormonal status and health risks.
The Postpartum to Perimenopause Pipeline
Q: What are some symptoms that listeners should look for?
Common symptoms include sleep disturbances, mood swings, memory lapses, decreased libido, vaginal dryness, and changes in periods; these can overlap with postpartum experiences, so tracking patterns over several cycles is important.
