Ep. 9 | Building a Healthier Baby Before Birth — Prenatal Nutrition, Oral Health, and the Microbiome Connection

What you do before and during pregnancy can shape your baby's immune system, teeth, and health for the next 18 years. Dr. Ellie Campbell and Dr. Kathleen Carson cover the prenatal strategies most OBs never mention: key supplements like vitamin D, magnesium, and fish oil; how xylitol taken during pregnancy can protect your baby from cavities through age 18; the birth canal microbiome and vaginal swabbing for C-section babies; pregnancy gingivitis and its link to gestational diabetes; morning sickness tips; and why nasal breathing and sleep quality matter so much for both mom and baby.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KplLMA6862wDisclaimerSleep, Sex & Senility is produced for informational and educational purposes only.
