What is labor induction really like? A first-time mom tells us all about it! She also shares how she and her wife chose a sperm donor and what the realities of conception are like when you don't have a male partner. We talk about changing doctors and standing up for yourself when you don't feel supported by your healthcare provider, how to navigate through some very difficult postpartum mental health struggles, how to find a therapist, and some really helpful information about knowing your rights when it comes to finding a FREE lactation consultant.
