Conventional Western Info. S ripped. Too many ads.
Pros: because this is so scripted, the host doesn’t spend much or any time greeting her guests or beating her on the bush, so you do get pretty straightforward information. A con to this: not a very heart warming or entertaining podcast. Other cons: the information on this podcast is very much in line with conventional western OB/GYN practice. No where on this podcast will you be encouraged to consider a midwife (everything is, “talk to your doctor”) a doula, have a non-medicated pregnancy, or have a homebirth. Podcast like this feed into the brainwashing of American women that the myriad of interventions OB/GYN push on women are normal. From the membrane sweep, to the breaking of your water, the Pitocin, the epidural, and finally the C-section. None of these are needed for abnormal healthy pregnancy. I wish more podcast would focus on educating women on this.

Love your App and your books! So excited for your podcasts as I continue my pregnancy/parenting journey :)

Love Heidi and the WTE app but not as impressed with the podcast. It’s sweet that they have mother and daughter perspectives but Emma doesn’t work for this podcast, in my opinion. The sex episode was awful but overall some good info.

So much personal talk about their family dynamics or children and less factual or informative. I cringe at the scriptedness. They aren’t experts. And when Heidi speaks it is very slow and condescending. Would be embarrassed for someone to know I listened to this. Would not recommend.
