0:00.0	So I really do encourage people to get out of bed and walk from day one. No, I'm not talking like
0:06.0	miles or even 20 minutes. Vaginal birth or C-section, but especially a C-section. And that probably
0:12.6	sounds counterintuitive to a lot of people, but it is so important that you are out of bed with help,
0:20.3	especially if you had a C-section, have help with
0:22.6	someone helping you out of bed, but walking around your room a little bit, walking up and down
0:27.4	the halls. And you could start with just a couple of minutes at a time to really help promote
0:32.8	healing, but help decrease risk of complication to surgery.
0:47.5	Getting pregnant and giving birth are two of the most exciting things you can ever hope to experience in this life.
0:52.2	The moment you think you could be pregnant, you're frantically searching for all the best information,

1:29.2	you love. So let's get started. A review of the week this week is E. Reese 307. She says,
1:41.7	Game Changer for a first birth. This podcast was my best resource during
1:46.3	pregnancy. I just had my first baby and before the birth, I listened to every episode of this
1:51.6	podcast, which always blows my mind because there's like a ton of them now. So good job.
1:56.7	But she said, my birth preferences went out the door when my baby was diagnosed with fetal growth
2:01.2	restriction and I was scheduled to be induced early. This podcast gave me the strength and knowledge
2:05.8	to stay positive and continue forward to have the most amazing natural-ish hospital birth.
