    How was this helpful? BARELY ANY solutions discussed. It was just a list of unfair treatment that we are going to walk into and have no control of, except now we know that these labor nurses are disgusted by us. Thanks for the frear. You could have started at the hour of this podcast taping. Your language wasn’t even empowering- its all negative. Why not discuss how we can actually speak up for ourselves? You leave us with the thought of dying because of biases and no recommendations.

⁠⁠
I had no clue what I was doing.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
All I knew was that I desperately wanted to change the narrative around plus size pregnancy and thought sharing my story could make a difference.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
Ten years and nearly 6.5 million pageviews later, I'm forever thankful I decided to tell my story.⁠⁠

Thank you for being part of my journey!⁠⁠
