The waddling Truth

Unhinged Things Husbands Ask Postpartum(video)

Nobody prepares couples for the postpartum questions they are too embarrassed to ask out loud. Can you get pregnant 3 weeks after birth? Does breastfeeding actually prevent pregnancy? What really changes after a hysterectomy? And why do so many women feel completely blindsided by postpartum recovery? In this episode of The Waddling Truth, Alicia and Kristian answer the awkward, uncomfortable, and wildly misunderstood postpartum questions partners are secretly Googling at midnight. No sugarcoating. No fake “bounce back” nonsense. Just honest conversations about healing, hormones, sex, recovery, and what real postpartum life actually looks like. Alicia brings the clinical side after seeing tens of thousands of pregnancies and ultrasounds firsthand. Kristian brings the lived side after 5 postpartum recoveries in 7 years. And honestly? Some of the misinformation around postpartum recovery is scarier than the actual questions. Topics We Cover: • Pregnancy 3 weeks postpartum • Hysterectomy myths explained • Breastfeeding & fertility • Early menopause fears • Postpartum healing & intimacy • Questions husbands are afraid to ask 🎧 LISTEN HERE: Apple Podcasts → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-waddling-truth/id1869960733 [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-waddling-truth/id1869960733] Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/2RaENY3jdlMyCKwV26AKUm?si=2TXk36KrSge6MdrkZK8hLA [https://open.spotify.com/show/2RaENY3jdlMyCKwV26AKUm?si=2TXk36KrSge6MdrkZK8hLA] ▶️ Watch on YouTube → https://youtube.com/@thewaddlingtruthpodcast?si=dY6saTgSWqwe5aux [https://youtube.com/@thewaddlingtruthpodcast?si=dY6saTgSWqwe5aux] 🌐 Website → https://thewaddlingtruth.com [https://thewaddlingtruth.com/] FOLLOW THE WADDLING TRUTH: Instagram → https://www.instagram.com/thewaddlingtruth [https://www.instagram.com/thewaddlingtruth] TikTok → https://www.tiktok.com/@thewaddlers [https://www.tiktok.com/@thewaddlers] Facebook → https://www.facebook.com/share/18eteLhpWL/?mibextid=wwXIfr [https://www.facebook.com/share/18eteLhpWL/?mibextid=wwXIfr] #PregnancyPodcast #Postpartum #Motherhood #Breastfeeding #NewMom #ParentingPodcast #PregnancyMyths #Marriage

Gender Disappointment In Pregnancy: You’re NOT a Bad Mom

You were told, “as long as the baby’s healthy,” so why do you feel a pit in your stomach after the gender reveal? If you’re pregnant and secretly grieving the girl or boy you imagined, this episode is your safe space. Ultrasound tech Alicia and mom‑of‑5 Kristian get brutally honest about gender disappointment in pregnancy—what it really feels like in the ultrasound room, why it doesn’t make you ungrateful, and how to process those big feelings without drowning in shame. From sobbing in the parking lot after a smoke bomb turns blue, to hearing “are you going to try again for a girl/boy?” while you’re still pregnant, they’re saying the quiet stuff out loud so you don’t feel alone. This episode is for you if you’ve ever thought, “I love this baby, but I’m still sad,” especially after multiple kids, miscarriage, or early DNA testing that felt like a tease. You’ll walk away feeling seen, validated, and reminded that your baby can still be better than anything you planned—even if the gender wasn’t what you expected. In this episode, we talk about: * What gender disappointment actually is (and why it’s more like grieving a dream than rejecting your baby) * Real stories from the ultrasound studio and a mom of 5 girls who never got the “boy” people kept asking about * How comments like “you finally got your girl/boy” quietly invalidate your other children * Practical ways to process guilt, sadness, and “I should just be grateful” thoughts while still bonding with your baby If this topic makes you uncomfortable, good—that means it’s real. Hit play, take a deep breath, and know you’re not the only mama who’s ever felt this wa
