  • 40 Days Postpartum With Baby #3: 9 Things I’m Doing Differently This Time

    40 Days Postpartum With Baby #3: 9 Things I’m Doing Differently This Time
    Aug 28 2026
    Coach the Mother is back!! After more than a year away from the podcast, Dr. Natalie Forsell returns to the mic following a year that changed nearly every part of her life. Her podcasting journey was interrupted by the sudden death of her parents, followed by grief, pregnancy, constant transition, and ultimately the birth of her third baby, Maverick, just three days after the first anniversary of their death. Now, 40 days postpartum, Natalie is reflecting on something she did not necessarily expect: This is her strongest early postpartum recovery yet. Not because this season has been easy. Not because she “bounced back.” And definitely not because she found one magical postpartum hack. With every pregnancy and birth, she has learned more about what her body actually needs to heal, rebuild, and feel like home again. In this deeply personal return episode, Natalie shares nine lessons shaping her third postpartum experience, including ditching the scale, strength training through pregnancy, preparing nourishing food before birth, therapy and radical acceptance through grief, intentional supplementation, contact naps and co-regulation, movement as a mental health anchor, the hormonal overlap between lactation and other low-estrogen seasons of women’s lives, and learning to celebrate her body for what it can do rather than how small it can become. She also breaks down the research behind several of these choices and explains why postpartum recovery deserves much more than a six-week green light. This is not an episode about getting your body back. It is about becoming more informed, more supported, more capable, and more deeply grounded in the body carrying you into motherhood.

  • What Really Matters About Ab Separation?

    What Really Matters About Ab Separation?
    Jun 19 2025

    Diastasis recti (ab separation) scares the life out of new moms—and most never get a proper exam.

    In this raw, research-packed episode, Dr. Natalie Forsell explains:

    • What diastasis recti really is (and how it differs from a hernia).
    • Why your 6-week check rarely covers it—and what a real assessment looks like.
    • The “soda-can” pressure analogy that connects ab separation to leaking, prolapse, and back pain.
    • How to self-measure your gap and decide if you need targeted rehab. Exactly how to breathe, brace, and move so you heal instead of aggravate.
    • A sneak peek into Natalie’s 4-phase Postpartum Recovery Program for moms ready to reclaim their core—and their confidence.
