Your Most Embarrassing Birth Questions Answered - Part 1

Your Most Embarrassing Birth Questions Answered - Part 1

Author: Liesel Teen January 2, 2023 Duration: 25:15

Happy New Year podcast fam! If you are listening to this in real time, then you know that this is the very first episode of 2023, and we're kicking off the year with a super fun "Ask Me Anything" style episode. This time, I asked our community over on Instagram for their most embarrassing questions that they had around birth (you know, the kind of things that you might be a little bit shy to ask but you really want to know), and let me tell you, you guys delivered - no pun intended!

I had such a great time doing this episode for you because I love talking about embarrassing stuff. And we had so many questions come in that I actually broke it up into two parts for you, with part two airing next week.
