Folic acid ?
Please stop advertising folic acid .. we need to be preaching methylated folate . Come on ladies !
Listening to a Man explain that women are “complex creatures”
I was looking for a new podcast and started with the episode of symptoms in the first 20 weeks.
Middle of the episode, a male doctor is saying “women are very complex creatures. And when you put them in situations where they don’t feel well….”. Complex creatures? Shove off. You try being pregnant.
Waste of time
Yak yak yak. A lot of talking without saying anything of value. I tried 2 episodes, one on the Bradley Method and another on a different birthing method, I cannot remember the name…They were basically advertisements for the methods without actually explaining how to do them.
