CleanPodcast: How to care for your c-section scar, with the author of Ending Female Pain | Did you know that in some countries in Europe all moms who have had c-sections get physical therapy to care for their incisions and recover from the surgery? Did you know that some women go for years with pain and other complications from their c-section scars, when some simple exercises make a big difference? Isa Herrera wishes that wishes that all mothers had great care after their c-sections. She is a physical therapist and owner of Renew Physical Therapy in New York, where she specializes in caring for women's gynecologic pain. She is author of Ending Female Pain: A Woman's Manual. Isa spoke with Tanya Lieberman about how mothers can care for their c-section scars, reduce pain, and increase mobility. They discussed scar massage and yoga poses, and other ways to help us recover.

CleanPodcast: Biological Nurturing and Laid Back Breastfeeding, with Suzanne Colson | We're very pleased to share this podcast interview with Dr. Suzanne Colson, pioneering researcher known for her work developing the concept of Biological Nurturing. She is the author of An Introduction to Biological Nurturing and the DVD Biological Nurturing: Laid-Back Breastfeeding for Mothers. Suzanne talked with Tanya Lieberman about the concept of Biological Nurturing, the primitive neonatal reflexes she has identified, why babies sometimes fight or "box" the breast when feeding in traditionally-taught breastfeeding holds, and why she believes babies are "front feeders" and not "dorsal feeders." One note: This interview was recorded in the busy hallway at a breastfeeding conference, and as a result the audio is not up to our usual standard. We hope you enjoy it anyway!

CleanPodcast: How can you avoid getting “pushed” into a birth you don’t want? | We're very pleased to share a podcast interview with Jennifer Block, the author of Pushed: The Painful Truth about Modern Maternity Care. Pushed shines a bright light on the state of maternity care in the U.S., from record-high induction and cesarean rates, to the legal obstacles to midwifery. Whether you’re expecting a baby or want to advocate for change, you’ll want to read this book. Tanya Lieberman spoke with Jennifer about the ways in which moms are 'pushed' or denied care, the projection that the cesarean rate will hit 50%, recent changes in recommendations for VBAC, and what mothers can do to avoid getting 'pushed.'

CleanPodcast: How to “milk” your maternity leave and pumping rights | Few things are as important as figuring out how long you'll be able to leave work to be at home with a new baby, but most moms find the web of state, federal, and employer policies about maternity leave confusing to downright mysterious. Enter Lauren Wallenstein. Lauren is a former human resources manager who now helps moms decipher what these policies mean to them, and helps them advocate to get the full leave they're entitled to. Her business is called Milk Your Benefits. Tanya Lieberman, IBCLC spoke with Lauren about when moms should start figuring out their leave plans, what makes it all so confusing, and mistakes moms sadly make in the process of using their leave. They also discussed the new federal law granting a right to pump at work to most moms.

CleanPodcast: Here comes The Milk Truck! | Starting this month, residents of Pittsburgh may see a converted ice cream truck with a five foot breast and police-light flashing nipple on the road. It's The Milk Truck! Tanya Lieberman, IBCLC got to chat with Jill Miller, the creator of The Milk Truck about how it works, the inspiration for the project, whether nursing stations can imply that nursing in public is inappropriate, and how art and humor can be used to challenge perceptions and start conversations.

CleanPodcast: Making milk when there is no baby to feed | We're very pleased to share an interview on the rarely discussed issue of lactation after the loss of a baby. Tanya Lieberman, IBCLC talked with Jessica Wellborn, a graduate student who studied milk donation after perinatal loss. She is the donor coordinator at the Mothers' Milk Bank of San Jose. Tanya and Jessica talked about the experience of lactation after mothers lose babies - either in pregnancy, at birth, or as infants - and the range of feelings and challenges it rasies. This is a poorly recognized issue, and we're happy to spread the word about it. Tanya, in partnership with her local loss support group, also helped to prepare a brochure for mothers who have experience a loss, and we're happy to share it here.
