Summary

This week, we are joined by Mega selling Author, Heidi Murkoff, who sold over 20 million copies of her famous book series, What to Expect When You’re Expecting.

She sat down with us to discuss #BumpDay which she founded through her foundation encouraging women around the US to post images of their baby bumps, past and present, to bring awareness to grave disparities in maternal care and the ever growing maternal mortality rate in the United States.

In this episode we discuss:
 - Why pregnancy used to be called women's "period of confinement".

- How Heidi accidentally became the first women to say “penis” on national TV 🍆
 - Shocking statistics about mortality and C-section rates for black women.

- Why Doulas are necessary and should be covered by health insurance.  - How a laboring woman walked 14 MILES to deliver in South Sudan.
