Ep 83//Must Have Lab Tests to Get Pre-Conception and in Pregnancy with Functional Practitioners MaryAnn Marks & Sara Russell

Have you been avoiding the medical model of care during your pregnancy due to mistrust? Are you curious about blood testing but unsure where to go or what any of the tests mean? Today I had Sara and Maryanne on the show to talk about lab testing for preconception though each trimester of pregnancy. We talk about the must have testing, the difference lab results are based on trimester, importance of the right prenatal and talk about how proper diet can reverse Gestational diabetes!  MaryAnn Marks & Sara Russell have worked with hundreds of fertility clients in their combined 19 years of nutrition experience.

 

Their current collaboration focuses on teaching reproductive-focused clinicians and clients alike the correct way to view blood work in pregnancy and postpartum and how normal physiological changes should be reflected in pregnancy-specific ranges.

 

They're excited to share the evidence-based information that expertly fills an enormous knowledge gap in the field of reproductive healthcare. This is a high level podcast episode and you’ll definitely want to take notes!

 

Reminder- If you’re currently planning a peaceful homebirth you’re going to want to make sure you have all the essentials. Each birth worker has their own ideas on what you should or shouldn’t have but after supporting women in the homebirth setting for the past 5 years I complied a checklist for you of all the essentials my clients have found the most helpful.
