#77 | January Q&A: Co-sleeping; Prodromal Labor; Switching Providers; Third Babies; Conceiving While Breastfeeding; Vaginal Dryness; Baby-Led Weaning; Hep-Locks and IVs

This month's Q&A is packed with valuable information! Check it out below: Did you Co-Sleep with your babies? I am thinking about leaving my provider. What do you recommend I say or do? Do you have any tips for prodromal labor? Is it common to have vaginal dryness while breastfeeding? Is it true that the 3rd baby can be a "wild card?" And if so, is there anything I can do? Do I need to make any changes to my breastfeeding schedule if I am trying to conceive? What is baby-led weaning and can it work with exclusive breastfeeding? Can I refuse a saline-lock IV in labor? Don't forget you can submit questions via our website downtobirthshow.com or via Instagram @downtobirthshow.
