Fascinating and empowering!

This podcast is an incredible resource during my second pregnancy - it has taught me so much about obstetric topics that you don’t have time to discuss or know what to ask about with your OB. The doctors discuss the issues in more depth and nuance than you can ever find online, and they share fascinating insights about their decision-making and how they counsel patients. Thank you for doing this, Dr. Fox!

Decent

Useful and digestible - it strikes the balance between the crunchy midwifery podcasts and the highly medicalized ones. I don’t enjoy the political takes though.

Another Toaster hooked!

Thank you for delivery such great quality content about women’s health and pregnancy. 22 weeks pregnant and I have gone back and listen to most of the episodes since you began. I feel so informed about all aspects of pregnancy and birth and even shared some episodes with my family and friends that I thought related to what they are experiencing I their lives. Once again thanks and I am so happy Jackie helped a toaster navigate her first pregnancy! 😊
