On this episode of the Innate Wisdom Podcast, I’m honored to welcome Dr. Ray Peat. Dr. Peat is a Ph.D. in Biology from the University of Oregon, with an emphasis in physiology. He has taught at several schools including his alma mater, Urbana College, Montana State University, National College of Naturopathic Medicine, Universidad Veracruzana, the Universidad Autonoma del Estado de Mexico, and Blake College. His work has particularly revolved around the work of Progesterone, Thyroid hormone, and others, and the notion that energy and structure are interdependent, at every level. His approach focuses on how our environment influences development, regenerative processes, and an evolutionary perspective by combining biophysics, biochemistry, and physiology. And he shines a light on how we can use energy-protective materials to not only reduce aging, but to thrive.

How fitting that I'm releasing my birth story with Reagan on her due date! My sweet baby was brought into the world abruptly 3 weeks ago due to a diagnosis of severe ICP (Intrahepatic Cholestasis of Pregnancy ). Tune in to find out more about the liver disorder I developed in pregnancy as well as my positive induction story that brought our sweet 6lb  9oz baby to us 20 days early.

In this special episode of the podcast, I share my labor story and how Roman came into the world, my postpartum experience so far, and a few pieces of advice that I wish someone had shared with me prior to giving birth.

A couple of notes:

+ my birth story is traumatic, that does not mean yours will be. I hope yours is absolutely beautiful. I'm sharing mine because some of you have asked and I want to be transparent.

+ no matter your birth experience, the end result is worth it. My son is the light of my life and I would do it all again.

+ I'll be sharing on Instagram some products that have made the first month postpartum easier on me and Roman, so check that out if you are on the hunt.

Nat chats with  twin mom Lucy Graham about her twin pregnancy after IUI, a diagnosis of cholestasis, C-section delivery at 35 weeks, how the newborn stage went with feedings and sleep, what it's like with a 2 mom family, and what her day-to-day life is like with 7-month-old twin girls.

Twins Tale is sponsored by Zoe Strollers. Be sure to check out their awesome twin strollers here.

Lucy Graham is originally from the East Coast but has lived in Hawaii for 16 years. She moved for grad school and never looked back. She met her wife in 2016, got married in 2018, and they decided to try to have a baby in 2019. Lucy got pregnant on their second IUI attempt and they were completely shocked to find out a few weeks later it was twins (especially because they had been told there was one egg). Lucy was an elementary special education teacher but now works from home as an editor while her wife travels a lot for work (or did pre-COVID). They now have 7-month-old fraternal twin girls and are still shocked on a daily basis that there are two!

In the next episode of Bowel Sounds, hosts Dr. Jenn Lee and Dr. Peter Lu talk to Dr. Bill Balistreri about neonatal cholestasis.  Dr. Balistreri is a pioneer in the study of pediatric liver disease and a former NASPGHAN President.  We talk to him about why babies with jaundice past 2 weeks of age need further testing -- and why this is an important topic for not only pediatric gastroenterologists but also for pediatricians and parents.  We review causes of cholestasis in infancy, including biliary atresia.  We also discuss his career thus far and advice for younger trainees and faculty.

Today you get a 2-for-1 -- 2 birth stories from one mama. Melissa has an almost 3-year-old, Segovia, and a 6-week old, Adelina. She shares her first 1st birth story, which was an unusually quick, 6-hour induction with no pain meds and with doula support. Then she shares her rationale for switching care providers from an OB over to working with a hospital midwife for her 2nd baby’s birth, which was an even faster, 4-hour, unmedicated labor.
