What happens when a fertility physician, a trainer specializing in pre- and postnatal fitness, and an ob-gyn talk pregnancy in an unfiltered setting? Find out in this very special episode, in which three leading maternity experts get real about the struggles many of us face but few of us discuss. Natalie Crawford, MD, starts with the factors that affect conception and beyond, focusing on age, stress and nutrition. Trainer Jane Wake busts eye-roll-worthy exercise myths once and for all. And Dr. Christine Ekechi sheds light on the emotional toll of motherhood, including miscarriage and the racial disparities in maternity healthcare. Heavy stuff? Sometimes. But to these notable women, this convo is long overdue.
