Hi, Cynthia and Trisha. It's your biggest fan girl here with a question. Recently, a friend of

mine was told that she should wait one year postpartum before trying to conceive again so that her

I'm Cynthia Overgard, owner of hypniburthing of Connecticut, childbirth advocate, and postpartum support specialist.

And I'm Tresha Ludwig, certified nurse midwife and international board certified lactation consultant.
