We’re also talking about her breastfeeding routine, how she is nourishing her body postpartum, and what a change it has been between her first and second pregnancy.   Stay safe and informed, visit http://cdc.gov for more information on the Coronavirus.  For full notes, visit http://supermamas.com Like us on https://www.facebook.com/supermamaspodcast/ Double tap on https://www.instagram.com/_supermamas/
