| 0:00.0 | As a mom of three, I know how important it is to have quality products that make life easier instead of harder, and that's why I absolutely love coterie diapers. |
| 0:08.3 | Cotary diapers are super soft, absorbent, and hypoallergenic. Plus, the best part is you can subscribe to have them delivered right to your doorstep and never have to worry about running low. |
| 0:17.8 | Use code no one told us for 20% off all of Coterie's products today. |
| 0:24.5 | Welcome to No One Told Us, the podcast that tells the truth about parenting and talks about |
| 0:29.0 | all the stuff you wish you knew before having kids. I'm your host, Rachel Shepardota, |
| 0:33.7 | and today I'm so excited to talk with Dr. Sarah Reardon. |
| 0:42.3 | And Dr. Sarah is a board certified pelvic floor therapist, wife and mom of two. |
| 0:50.0 | And her Instagram page, The Vagina Whisperer, is a go-to resource for taking care of your pelvic floor before, during, and after pregnancy. |
| 0:52.2 | Sarah, thank you so much for joining us. |

I thought it was fascinating to understand more about my own body, but then also work with people who I just kept hearing over and over like, why didn't anybody tell me about this sooner or I wish I would have known about this sooner?

| 2:13.5 | I love that. And it's so unfortunate because I know like I have a pretty like international |
