Midwives with no Lives

Hey! We are Ashleigh & Erica Lea and we own Clover Leaf Midwifery in FL state. We are one licensed midwife and one student midwife, however we are not YOUR midwives. We seek out current and evidence based stats and information for the topics we present. But this podcast should not be used as a substitute for real obstetrical or gynecological care, nor should it serve to replace the advice of your chosen provider. We do encourage you to ask hard questions and/or seek out the care of a provider that is a better fit for your needs. Please also note that we absolutely use filthy language during our discussions, which may occasionally be about controversial or triggering subject matter. So, now that’s out of the way, who wants to get buzzed and talk about birth shit?

    Postpartum Anxiety, OCD & Psychosis

    In honor of Mental Health Awareness month (May), we bring you this episode discussing postpartum anxiety, obssessive-compulsive disorder and psychosis. Please enjoy our interview with the loveliest soul, who ever-so-generously shared their personal experience with postpartum psychosis. Our goal is to destigmatize this topic and bring awareness so that you may recognize if you yourself or someone in your life is struggling to adjust to this new postpartum shift.  As always we thank you for continuing to listen in on whatever shit we want to talk about each week! If you're a doula, midwife or parent who has a story, some info or experience with any postpartum mood disorder, please consider sending them to us at midwiveswithnolives@gmail.com or MwnLPod.com/connect. And if you're enjoying MwnL, we'd love your feedback, ratings & reviews!

    Birth Physiology

    Hey! Thank you so much for joining us! In this episode we discuss the hormones of physiological labor/birth as well as how childbirth changes your brain! We'll happily revisit this topic as a whole later once we figure our shit out. But we breakdown each hormone responsible during labor and we will definitely dive into these MUCH more on an individual level as we become a little more experienced. Please note: These episodes have been recorded since Fall 2022 and we have since decided that Ashleigh and Erica will EACH present a topic each episode. So we do genuinely hope you enjoy and if not, you're so totally free not to listen... Now that's out of the way, who wants to get buzzed and talk about birth shit?
