About this episode

Alicia and Kristian discuss the awkward postpartum questions that couples are too embarrassed to ask, providing honest insights into recovery and intimacy.

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.
