Weeks 9 & 10 Postpartum
Welcome back to Beyond the Boob! You can have full access to this podcast through Apple subscriptions or through our Patreon at patreon.com/milkminutepodcast
This week we recount weeks 9 & 10 postpartum. Heather talks a lot about battling her own mom brain in order to move forward. We chat about the challenges of balancing pumping and feeding, returning to work fully, balancing sleep and feeding, and more. At this point postpartum we're still occasionally stuck in in bed cluster feeding and watching Grey's Anatomy, and alternately we're racing through life to be the most 'normal' that we can.
Maureen helps remind us that we're still healing and adjusting to life with a new baby. She chats with us about hormones, lactation, and more!
We're almost to the end of our journey here on Beyond the Boob, so don't miss these last few episodes! -
Week 7 & 8 Postpartum
Welcome back to Beyond the Boob! Continuing through the fourth trimester we're taking you beyond the typical 6 weeks of the postpartum. What does healing look like after your last OB visit? What does returning to work with a newborn look like? Are you really ready to have sex again?
As we move forward and the busy days blend together we will continue to combine weeks into larger episodes. We're so thankful that you've listened to all of these episodes so far, and hope that you stick with us until the end! -

Customer Reviews
Most relatable pregnancy resource
I listened to beyond the boob weekly as it was produced and learned so much about pregnancy. I had wished it had been available when I was pregnant with my first. I am now pregnant with my second and I am re-listening week by week. This is the only resource I have found that tells you the good, bad, and the ugly of pregnancy. Heather and Maureen are both so open about their own experiences that make you feel like you have two friends going through it all with you. Additionally, you learn so much about what is happening each week, how to manage unpleasant symptoms, and when you may need to contact your provider. They are very evidence based and explain the science in a way that is enjoyable and entertaining. I couldn’t recommend this podcast more!
A Pregnancy Must Listen
This podcast is amazing! I listened to this throughout my entire pregnancy and it became one of my essential resources for understanding what was happening with my body and baby - making me feel less anxious and mentally supported by Maureen and Heather. The podcast was so helpful I didn’t even need to ask that many questions to my OB during my pre-natal appointments.
Big Fan
I have already been a big fan of the milk minute and have even weaned and I still listen! I knew if I got pregnant again I would subscribe to Beyond the Boob and follow along. Well the time has come, I’m 6 weeks and couldn’t be more stoked to subscribe 💕
