The C-Spot: A Podcast about C-Sections
Episode 7: Eleanor's C-Section Journey + Embracing Your Mom Bod
This episode is featuring a wife and a Mama of three that is all about empowerment and embracing your body and all the wonderful + hard things it has done to birth your babies. I linked up with my girl, Eleanor, to talk about her experience with C-sections, as well as the community she created for moms.
Eleanor's first birth experience was an induction due to pre-eclampsia that led to a C-section. After this experience, Eleanor chose to have two more planned C-sections. Some of the topics discussed include the importance of trusting your OB, the necessity for medical providers to listen to their patients, recovery tips after having a C-section, making the decision to have a planned C-section, perinatal depression, and embracing your mom bod.
Eleanor is a body positivity + self-care advocate, nurse, and a women's health + wellness coach. She has a passion for women’s health and specializes in working with moms who struggle with confidence, prioritizing their needs, and taking care of themselves. Through her step-by-step process, moms are transformed from the inside out by implementing positive mindset shifts and healthy lifestyle habits into their busy lives. She also founded Embrace the Mom Bod and National Mom Bod Day, which is on July 31st of every year! Embrace the Mom Bod is a platform created to empower moms to embrace and love their new selves + bodies from the inside out and inspiring moms to love the journey of discovering their new selves instead of only focusing on the destination.
