Are you someone who is fascinated by all the pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood stuff few people talk about because they're too embarrassed? If so, welcome to the motherload of all things taboo, or at least really wild and interesting. The Asking for a Pregnant Friend podcast is based off the book of the same name and dives into all of the pregnancy, birth, and mothering topics that make many people blush or scratch their heads. I do all the boring research so you don't have to and bring you interviews with the leading experts in the topics I cover. I also share all the things about myself, Bailey Gaddis. I'm all about TMI. You'll also hear stories from brave women who gave permission to have their stories shared. So come along, my friend, on a journey into the beautiful underbelly of making, growing, and raising babies.
Postpartum hemorrhaging, or essentially excessive vaginal bleeding after having a baby, happens to 1 to 5 in 100 women. This episode explores the primary causes, symptoms, and treatments of postpartum hemorrhaging. Learn how the uterus continues to contract after childbirth to help the placenta release and how complications can arise if the placenta does not detach properly. Understand the signs of postpartum hemorrhage, including excessive bleeding, sudden drop in blood pressure, and other alarming symptoms. Discover what care providers do to manage and treat postpartum hemorrhaging, from administering fluids and medications to performing surgical interventions if necessary.
