Miraculous Fertility + Battling Breastfeeding | Kylie's Birth Story

Welcome to the very first episode of The Labor Line! I’m your host, Emily — a non-mom who’s always been weirdly obsessed with birth. (Like… childhood Barbie birth scenarios obsessed.)To kick things off, I’m joined by my dear friend Kylie, who may or may not have told her OB to shut up while pushing. From not being sure she even wanted kids, to navigating fertility struggles, Kylie takes us through all the twists, turns, and TUMS of pregnancy (hello, carpal tunnel and raging heartburn).We talk about her labor and delivery — the real stuff, like what surprised her, what hurt, and what helped. And we dive into the postpartum fog, including her breastfeeding journey and how she found support when things got hard. If you’re into real, vulnerable, laugh-through-the-tears kind of birth stories, you’re in the right place. In this episode: Changing your mind about motherhoodCarpal tunnel, heartburn, and other pregnancy joys 🙃The emotional weight of labor + deliveryReal talk about breastfeeding and asking for helpWords of love and encouragement for new moms🎧 New episodes every Tuesday. 📱 Let’s hang out @thelaborlineResources mentioned in this episode: Practically Pain-Free Birth Course by the Mighty Mama MovementLabor like a Goddess by Lauren MahanaMotherlove More Milk Plus by MotherloveChapters00:00 - Introducing: The Labor Line!! 05:49 - Meet Kylie11:15 - A Winding Road to Pregnancy20:31 - Pregnancy: Carpal Tunnel, Birthing Prep, & Peeling Wallpaper32:48 - Labor: Pain Reality Check, Epidural Relief, & Squatted Pushing]45:14 - Breastfeeding: A Tounge Tie Mystery 59:12 - To My Pre-Mom Self…
