The 6wk Postpartum Appt is Bullsh!t

In this episode, Dr. Sterling lets loose with a rant about why she hates the 6 week postpartum appointment. If you've been following her on instagram (@drsterlingobgyn), you've heard an impassioned discussion or two about the care people receive in postpartum. As she navigates her own postpartum journey, she's been thinking a lot about the lack of postpartum care and what drove her to leave her practice and start SterlingParents.com. At a time when people need the most support, why does the medical system go silent? Tune in to hear why the 6 week appointment is bullish!t and ways we can fight for change.

Christine Sterling

As an OB/GYN, I’ve helped hundreds of mothers bring babies into the world. Time and again, the mothers I’ve cared for expressed frustration and overwhelm at all of the conflicting information and advice.

Women don’t need more information to sift through, they need one trusted resource they can rely on for medical advice as well as strategies for having a calm and confident journey.

I started Sterling Parents so that overworked, stressed moms can relax. I want to provide the expert advice they are looking for SO they can stop digging for answers and get in touch with their own inner wisdom.

I want to lighten your load so you can thrive as the mom you are meant to be.
