Ep. 237: Q+A with HeHe

In this episode, HeHe answers some questions from our listeners! Tune in to hear HeHe’s advice on breastfeeding while pregnant, induction, dissecting your previous birth, anemia, iron infusions and supplements, VBAC, TOLAC, and and using breastmilk as a remedy for Pink Eye!

Below are the questions HeHe answered AND the resources mentioned!:

2:59 - “I’m two days past my due date with my second child. My first was induced at 42 weeks and it led to a c-section. I’m being urged to induce at 41 weeks now and I’d love your thoughts on this.”

8:31 - “What do you think about an Iron infusion? Levels have dropped a bit and the midwife practice recommended one but I’m not sure of the pros and cons.”

14:35 - Breastfeeding and Getting Pregnant: “Do you have any content on getting pregnant while breastfeeding? I am breastfeeding my toddler and don’t have a period but I want to start trying. I also don’t want to wean.”

21:21 - Failed induction: “I had a failed induction. I was dilated to four centimeters for four days until I just gave up and got a C-section. I’m very sad about it and am wondering what are some things that I could have done differently. I was induced because my baby was measuring too big at 37 weeks. My baby was born at 7lb 14oz and I’m actually still mourning the birth that I wasted and I got everything I didn’t want. Also, the Pitocin was already on 30.”

29:47 - VBAC: “I’m looking for information about VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean) and TOLAC (trial of labor after cesarean) with induction. First baby was a c-section and they were breech. I couldn’t find a provider who would attend a vaginal delivery. [My] provider is vbac supportive but will not let me go past 40 weeks due to my age of 39. I’m worried about induction and the chance of an “emergency c-section” and overall safety of TOLAC with induction. Thanks”
