Liz really wants a home birth if they go for baby number 4 and Vito is not on board. They invite Tiffany Alblinger from Beautiful One Midwifery to come on the podcast and answer all of Vito's questions.

Vito asks Tiffany all about safety, transfers,things they bring to the birth and more. Will Vito get on board or does he need more convincing?

Tiffany is a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM). She and her parter, Kelley, started Beautiful One Midwifery in 2018 from a dream they had to offer services to San Diego that made homebirth accessible, woman-led and a normal family experience.

Have you ever wondered what to look for in a prenatal? Ryan Woodbury is the cofounder of Needed, an amazing company that is changing the prenatal game. She answers all of your questions this episode about what to look for in a prenatal, what to avoid, and what to add in supplementation.
Through navigating her fertility and nutrition journey, she realized most prenatal nutrition information and products fall far short of empowering real nourishment for mamas-to-be. Needed empowers women to meet their biochemical nutritional needs, and to find nourishment beyond nutrition through better products, better identification of nutrition needs, education and community to support nourishment beyond nutritional needs alone.

Not only is getting pregnant and having healthy children more
difficult than it was for our parents’ generation, reproductive
anxiety is also on the rise.

Alexandria's approach to pre-pregnancy wellness is revolutionary. She
suggests preparing for pregnancy with the same level of dedication and
planning as one would for a wedding.

Her book emphasizes that the steps taken to prepare the body and mind
before conceiving can have a profound impact not only on fertility,
but also on the lifelong health of the child. "9 Months Is Not Enough"
serves as a comprehensive guide for individuals at any stage of their
journey to parenthood, offering practical advice and empowering
insights.

In addition to writing the ultimate pre-pregnancy checklist,
Alexandria is a functional nutritionist who specializes in fertility
and preconception health. She is the founder and CEO of Poplin, the
first pre-pregnancy wellness company, and holds an MBA from Harvard
Business School, a master’s degree in nutrition, and has had extensive
training as a doula, yoga teacher and personal trainer.
