In today's episode, pelvic floor and women's health expert Dr. Marcy Crouch and motherhood wellness expert Alyson Hempsey get very vulnerable. Today, they're talking all about constipation, hemorrhoids, poop...you know...the things that are totally normal that no one ever talks to you about. Alyson describes her harrowing experience with constipation post-partum, that undoubtedly had an effect on her mental health. Marcy talks about an actual, clinical tool used to determine if your poop is considered "normal". Just remember, Mamas... everyone poops. Nothing to be embarrassed about when it comes to this episode!
