Postpartum Q&A: What's "Normal" During Recovery, Breastfeeding, Energy, Metabolism, Hormones, Gut Health + More

In this episode, I'm answering your postpartum questions and talking through some of the most common things women experience after having a baby – physically, mentally, and emotionally. We get into exhaustion, hormones, digestion, breastfeeding, metabolism, nervous system stress, and recovery timelines. I also share my perspective on postpartum healing from both a personal and practitioner standpoint on what's "normal" versus what may be a sign your body needs more support.    Resources: • Which lab test is best for you? → • Get functional lab testing → • Follow along on Instagram →   In this episode: 01:06 — Is this normal? 06:43 — Energy + exhaustion 10:35 — Feeling "wired but tired" 12:36 — Getting back to the basics 15:30 — Feeling reactive + sensitive postpartum 19:00 — Hormonal fluctuations 20:37 — When to expect your menstrual cycle 23:15 — Breastfeeding + nourishment 26:26 — Metabolism + weight changes postpartum 29:14 — Digestion, bloating, and what's "normal" 31:03 — When to get more support? 36:24 — The postpartum recovery timeline   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.
