💙 BYTB: Doctor! My partner is pregnant, what can I do to help? A Q&A with Dr. Hugh Porter, obstetrician

from Beyond the Bump · host Sophie Pearce & Jayde Couldwell

Welcome to EP17 of Beyond The Balls! Dr. Hugh Porter is an obstetrician, husband, legend and father of two! He’s experienced an amazingly varied career and quite a lot of life, so we thought there was no one more qualified to help us out with some Q&A from our audience. We answer questions as sticky as ‘my wife wants a Caesarean but I think she can do it naturally’ all the way to ‘what’s the weirdest pregnancy craving you’ve heard of?’ with entertaining results. We thank Dr. Porter for his time and I can guarantee you he’ll be back for round 2! This was an amazing interview and he blew us away with his knowledge, candour and approach to obstetrics. Thank you to all the Ballers who submitted questions via Instagram.
