    Baby Gut Health, Eczema, Allergies & What Parents Can Do

    Your baby’s gut health starts earlier than you might think — even before birth. In this episode, I’m joined by Cheryl Sew Hoy, founder and CEO of Tiny Health, to talk about the developing infant and toddler gut microbiome and why those first few years of life matter so much. We unpack how pregnancy, vaginal and C-section birth, antibiotics, breastfeeding and formula feeding, introducing solids, pets, nature, and even Mom AND Dad’s microbiomes can influence a child’s developing gut. We also talk about: Why the first 1,000 days are such an important window How a baby’s microbiome differs from an adult’s C-sections, antibiotics, NICU stays, and gut health The connection between the gut, eczema, allergies, and other childhood symptoms Why Dad’s microbiome matters too Signs that may warrant a closer look at your baby or toddler’s gut How Tiny Health microbiome testing works Probiotics, HMOs, food diversity, and other ways to support a healthy microbiome Why preconception gut and vaginal health may matter before pregnancy even beginsIf you’re pregnant, preparing for pregnancy, or raising a baby or toddler, this conversation will give you a completely different perspective on how we can support our children’s health from the very beginning.

    Is There a “Right” Way to Have a Baby or Be a Mom? | with Dr. Laura Le, DC

    Okay moms, this is SUCH a good conversation — especially if you’re pregnant, preparing for a baby, newly postpartum, or honestly just trying to figure out what motherhood is supposed to look like for you. I’m joined by Dr. Laura Le, chiropractor, author of Postpartum Reimagined, and host of the You’re the Mom podcast, to talk about something I think so many of us need to hear: there really isn’t one “right” way to have a baby or be a mom. We talk about going into birth informed and prepared without becoming so attached to one specific birth plan, what happens when birth doesn’t go the way you imagined, and why we spend SO much time preparing for pregnancy and birth... only to be completely caught off guard by postpartum. 😅 We also get into the identity shift that happens when you become a mom, balancing motherhood with a career and the things that still make you feel like you, nervous system regulation, and why having the right people and providers around you can make such a difference. I also share some of my own experience with my first birth, postpartum, and figuring out over the last 18 months what I actually want motherhood + work to look like for me. Whether you’re preparing for your first baby or you’re already in the thick of motherhood, I think you’re going to feel SO seen in this one. 🤍 Find Dr. Laura's book, course, podcast, and more on her website: https://drlaurale.com/ 🌿 Preparing for Pregnancy Guide Take a proactive, functional medicine approach to fertility and preconception.
