Speaker 2: Because this is when I moved to Atlanta.

33
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 4: Honestly, the first time it rained, I thought it was

34
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,440
Speaker 4: going to be a tornado storm and it was just

35
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,480
Speaker 4: regular rain, and I realized that what we get is

36
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 4: not rain at all.

37
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: It's a light drizzle, it's never really raining. It was

38
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:45,760
Speaker 2: raining a lot.

39
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 4: Girl, you haven't been to real rain unless you've lived

40
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:49,640
Speaker 4: outside of California.

41
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,560
Speaker 2: No, I mean, I guess, but it was a medium.

42
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,520
Speaker 2: It was medium. All I want to do when it's

43
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 2: raining is just like.

44
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 4: In my bed, Like I didn't go anywhere all day yesterday,

45
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 4: and then for like two hours, I was like, I

46
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: think I'm depressed.

47
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: But then I realized maybe it's because.

48
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,920
Speaker 3: It was the weather and I hadn't washed my ass,

49
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 3: changed my clothes, went outside.

50
00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm I'm stressed. I'm depressed. And then

51
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 2: I'm like, maybe you should wash your.

52
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 3: Ass maybe that that that always makes me feel better washing. No,

53
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:28,960
Speaker 3: what was I gonna say? I I had an idea

54
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 3: of what I was gonna say, and then I forgot,

55
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:39,400
Speaker 3: probably because I smoked already. I'm having like Eela. That's

56
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 3: why I'm not gonna smoke.

57
00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 2: This is why I went to Dare. It's peer pressure.

58
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,600
Speaker 2: Oh God, don't say those words, stare, Please don't listen.

59
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 2: Still they're still around.

00:02:52,320 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 4: I really want one of those T shirts, even though

62
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 4: I feel like I'm kind of a hypochis that's the point, right, oh,

63
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,079

Speaker 2: I mean for me. No.

65
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:05,760

00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: Period. You feel like working out n ki ki like

160
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:31,080
Speaker 2: n keeps you sane. Yes, that's probably what I need

161
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 2: to do, but it's hard for me.

162
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,760
Speaker 3: I get really into it and then I get really inconsistent,

163
00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 3: and then I start I just noticed a shift in

164
00:07:36,800 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 3: my attitude. Yes, baby, okay, okay.

165
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 4: All right.

166
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,680
Speaker 2: I went on a date that was cool. This is

167
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: oh a new date? No, no, the date we were

168
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: a little the same date, okay, same guide, same date.

169
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and chatted with you, texted, we texted a lot, texted,

170
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 3: built Insta stories.

171
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,720
Speaker 2: To like whatever I'm like am I slow? Clearly social

172
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 2: media is a whole other thing. I feel so much pressure.

173
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,480
Speaker 2: I'm like, let me ask the hair cut. This one's okay. No,

174
00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,360
Speaker 2: I don't feel pressure. I don't. I barely know what

175
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:39,719
Speaker 2: I'm doing.

176
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 3: I only know because of beauty Blender and like looking

177
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 3: at their stuff all day and watching other people make

178
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 3: things better than me, and then I'm like, oh, that's

179
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 3: how you do that.

180
00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:49,520
Speaker 4: I thought I could stayed up post for like forty

181
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,960
Speaker 4: five minutes, and then I get Hi, I distracted, and

182
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:52,800
Speaker 4: I'm like it's ugly.

183
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's too much. Oh So, speaking of new news

184
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 2: recently in Kelly of North's Sacramento, did you hear about

185
00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,240
Speaker 2: Stephen Clark. Stephen Clark is Stephan or Stephen Stefan.

186
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,160
Speaker 4: I think when when white people use pH, it's Stephen,

187
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 4: when Black people use pH, it's Stefan or Stephan.

188
00:09:14,559 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 2: Because I've heard in a few different ways and no confusing.

189
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,040
Speaker 3: I don't want to be out here saying his name

190
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 3: incorrectly because it's really important and he's an important person.

191
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 2: Rest his soul.

192
00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 3: Unfortunately he had to lose his life absolutely, get murdered.

193
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: Let's just say get murdered.

194
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,559
Speaker 4: He got murdered by the police in his own backyard

195
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 4: for being on a cell phone.

196
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 2: I mean this seems like I've heard this before.

197
00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: I just can't believe when we just watched that video

198
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 3: right now, like that they shot twenty shots between two people,

199
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 3: like this is Iraq, Like this is the war. There's

200
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,600
Speaker 3: only one person. It does not take twenty gun shots

201
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,719
Speaker 3: to put one person down. Like what kind of it's

202
00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 3: like a video?

203
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: Gay?

204
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, first of all, to be in the

205
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:01,520
Speaker 4: line of duty, you're on gonna you're fighting crime.

206
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: Let's be real, that's what you're supposed to be doing.

207
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 2: But at some point.

208
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,199
Speaker 4: When you signed up for that ship, when you went

209
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 4: through the camp or training whatever training that obviously it's

210
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 4: minimal go around that happens. I mean, honestly, these people

211
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 4: are cowards. You can literally hear him shaking and his

212
00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 4: breathing in the officer. Yeah, after they've shot this man

213
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 4: twenty times. The most the hardest part is that they

214
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,199
Speaker 4: let him sit there for five or six minutes asking.

215
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 2: Him to get up. Do you have a gun? You

216
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 2: have a gun?

217
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 3: You just shot someone twenty times? Do you really think

218
00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 3: they're gonna then they can respond?

219
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:41,440
Speaker 2: You think they're alive? Do you think they survived? You

220
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 2: are a fucking idiot, is what you are.

221
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:45,440
Speaker 4: And you should have no business having any job except

222
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 4: the one at Walmart because you're dumb as fuck. And

223
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 4: I really hope even though unfortunately we all know, these

224
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 4: motherfuckers are gonna get paid leave for six months or

225
00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 4: however long it takes a paid vacation for them the

226
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 4: investigate when I could be I'll be the investigator murder.

227
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 2: They need to go to jail. They're not going to

228
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 2: go to jail. They they're not.

229
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,920
Speaker 3: Especially they've already started talking about that this was a

230
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 3: justified kill because after watching the footage, even though that

231
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:14,719
Speaker 3: like it could have because of.

232
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:20,000
Speaker 2: What anything, how are they discussing it. It's a justified kills.

233
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360
Speaker 3: That's the report that I had seen when it first happened,

234
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 3: and I don't know if it's I'm pretty sure it's

235
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,360
Speaker 3: probably changed its First.

236
00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:29,240
Speaker 4: Of all, the call was for a black male who

237
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 4: was breaking into cars.

238
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 2: Okay, not a mass murderer, not.

239
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 4: A rapist on the loose, not someone with a machine

240
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 4: gun in the neighborhood. It's an alert red somebody breaking

241
00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 4: into cars.

242
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:41,319
Speaker 2: Now, if you're going to find something.

243
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 4: Breaking into cars and you just see a black man,

244
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 4: you have not identified this person, haven't asked for any

245
00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:51,320
Speaker 4: type of ID and you pull your weapon. First of all,

246
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,240
Speaker 4: you don't need a gun to break into a car.

247
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 4: And they said they thought it was a crowbar. What

248
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:56,000
Speaker 4: did they think he was.

249
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 2: Going to do?

250
00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,240
Speaker 4: Willkanda swing it at them? Like they shot him twenty times?

251
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:03,160
Speaker 4: And then proceeded to ask him, we need to know

252
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,520
Speaker 4: if you have a gun on you. They must show

253
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:06,760
Speaker 4: me your hands, Show.

254
00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 2: Me your hands.

255
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 4: They must really think we're from we're superhuman. They must

256
00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 4: think black people are superhuman.

257
00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 3: I mean, we are superhuman are but ain't nobody human

258
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 3: survive twenty gunshots?

259
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: Show me your hands? I like, I just I want

260
00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 2: to know how these people sleep at night.

261
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 4: I want to know how do you go to work

262
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 4: every day and you're this scared of black people.

263
00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 2: Or people period? Like this should not be listen. I

264
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 2: don't like blood. I don't like death.

265
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 4: I don't like losing people. I can't be a nurse.

266
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 4: I know that because I know myself. If you're a pussy,

267
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:42,880
Speaker 4: you need not be a cop.

268
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 2: You need not be a cop. It's like one plus

269
00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,840
Speaker 2: one equals too. And I hope, like I literally hope

270
00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,560
Speaker 2: that he has he. I hope that I should hunt

271
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 2: that motherfucker for the rest of their lives. I really do.

272
00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 4: I really do, because that's somebody's child. That's somebody that

273
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 4: he lived with, his grandparents. His grandparents and his child

274
00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 4: were in the house.

275
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:02,400
Speaker 2: They didn't even know it was him that they shot

276
00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:05,319
Speaker 2: in their backyard. They didn't even.

277
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 4: Know that their grandchild is back there getting murdered by cops,

278
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 4: people who are supposed to protect you.

279
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 3: I mean, if I saw a cop running towards me

280
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 3: as a black man, I'm running too. I'm running because

281
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 3: I don't know why y'all are running, and I'm running

282
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 3: because y'all are chasing me and I haven't done shit.

283
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 3: And I'm scared of cops at this point because you

284
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 3: guys have worked in our trust so many times.

285
00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: And don't get me wrong, I know some things are accidents.

286
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 3: Do I think that these cops like set out to

287
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:35,920
Speaker 3: murder someone woke up this morning and were like, we're

288
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 3: gonna go murder some like niggers today. Like, I don't

289
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,600
Speaker 3: know that for sure. I can't make that. That's a

290
00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:45,440
Speaker 3: really grandose assumption, But I just feel like it's the

291
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 3: lack of training. These people do not have any training,

292
00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:53,760
Speaker 3: which makes you do pussy shit. You act like you're

293
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,080
Speaker 3: in a fucking video game because and suddenly your life

294
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:57,400
Speaker 3: is more important than the other person's.

295
00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 2: There is training, but the training is probably biased. It's terrible.

296
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:06,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, and there's just there's just a bad likes. And

297
00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 3: then on the at the root of like what the

298
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 3: police force is, I know it comes stems from goodness,

299
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:14,000
Speaker 3: but they're rotting way.

300
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,880
Speaker 4: But that's where you're wrong, and that's where people are misconceived,

301
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,920
Speaker 4: the misconception of the police forces that they I mean,

302
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,760
Speaker 4: we all have, you know, think that they're there for good.

303
00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 4: But you know that the police the police force started

304
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 4: as like slave catchers. That's literally where the police force

305
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 4: the root of it is. So like even the badges

306
00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 4: are similar, like that came from that. So when it

307
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 4: stems from that, even like we're in the United States,

308
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:42,520
Speaker 4: it's not gonna twisted. Even black people have like embreded

309
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 4: stereotypical racist feelings because that's what we're fed constantly.

310
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,720
Speaker 2: These white like these cops.

311
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 4: That ship is not that big of a deal because

312
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,200
Speaker 4: there's no consequences and there have been no consequences. Fuck

313
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 4: a body cam, it does not matter. First of all,

314
00:14:57,560 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 4: on that settage we didn't see him run. We just

315
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:01,880
Speaker 4: talked in the backyard. There was no footage of him running.

316
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 4: I didn't see him run.

317
00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 3: And where's the app where's the rest of the footage?

318
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:07,760
Speaker 3: You only put it on so you own They switched

319
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,960
Speaker 3: on their camera footage when when.

320
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,320
Speaker 2: They started break before they started shooting.

321
00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 4: And then the fact that part is even if he

322
00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 4: had not run or had run, it may.

323
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 5: Not have changed their It may not have changed anything

324
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 5: because we've seen other videos where people aren't running, they

325
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 5: aren't doing anything, plain daylight, Eric Gardner, and they strangled

326
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,720

Speaker 3: I don't wanna We have an episode plans today, guys.

332
00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 2: But we had to mention this because it is just

333
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 2: so outrageous.

334
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 3: Outrageous and sad, sad, and it's just sad that it's

335
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:13,960
Speaker 3: like I'm getting used to it.

336
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 2: It's normal. It's not surprising that this is happening because.

337
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,520
Speaker 3: I'm getting numbt getting numbed to it, Loki, Like, not

338
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,280
Speaker 3: that I don't care about this at all, I do.

339
00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 3: When I just saw that video, Like something inside me

340
00:16:24,240 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: just makes me so fucking angry. I'm angry, like it's

341
00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 3: just becoming. It's not getting better because no one's paying

342
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 3: the price. There's no comb's going to be an example.

343
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 3: We just have to be the examples all the time.

344
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 2: It's just it's crazy.

345
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 3: And this person is someone's child, Like, this is someone's child.

346
00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 3: And people don't look at other people from different socioeconomic

347
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,480
Speaker 3: places and like different skin cut but they suddenly like

348
00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,640
Speaker 3: their children are not human to them or something.

349
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, like they're not looking at they're they're what are

350
00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:58,040
Speaker 4: you saying, separating?

351
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 3: I just mean like they just don't look at people like, oh,

352
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 3: you're a child, You're someone's child.

353
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 4: That's my biggest That's what I'm most baffled by because

354
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 4: a lot of the times these cops are parents, and like, literally,

355
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,320
Speaker 4: I don't know what your experience was, but like obviously

356
00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 4: I knew this, but when I gave birth to, when

357
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:18,040
Speaker 4: I gave birth to like this innocent, small little being,

358
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:20,639
Speaker 4: and then you just see how innocent they are and

359
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:21,920
Speaker 4: how they don't know anything.

360
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 2: And I mean literally, we're just born.

361
00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,440
Speaker 4: We were not choosing any of our socio you know,

362
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,000
Speaker 4: economic statuses and it's just like you would think that

363
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,439
Speaker 4: that could soften anyone's heart.

364
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,000
Speaker 2: Like that when people.

365
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 4: Who have kids who are mothers or fathers and they're racist,

366
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,919
Speaker 4: it really baffles me because you've experienced the beauty of

367
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,959
Speaker 4: childbirth and like the pureness and that you've you've chosen

368
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,199
Speaker 4: to have hate. Oh my god, this is this is

369
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 4: not on topic, but have you seen there's a snapchat

370
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 4: in some racist ass places in Middle America?

371
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 2: Two white nurses are.

372
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:02,560
Speaker 4: Maternity nurses in the maternity ward and they were snapchatting

373
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 4: like this little black baby and saying like, look, I'm

374
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 4: a rapper, like making racist comments with the baby on

375
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:09,359
Speaker 4: the snapchat.

376
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 2: What a newborn. And apparently they have one friend that

377
00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 2: cares because someone reported them and they got fired as

378
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 2: they should.

379
00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:22,280
Speaker 4: But calling the baby like inappropriate names. Can you imagine?

380
00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 4: That's another thing like which brings us to our topic today.

381
00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:33,360
Speaker 4: Today we're gonna be discussing pregnancy postpartum and how real

382
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 4: that motherfucking transition is. Yeah, the shock factor.

383
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 3: Shock factor. It's not what Instagram is showing. No, it's

384
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 3: not even what my Instagram is showing. Nobody told me

385
00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 3: about this part of it. There's a lot of shit

386
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,120
Speaker 3: people don't tell me about, but this, for sure, it's like, oh,

387
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 3: it's gonna be hard.

388
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:58,439
Speaker 4: That is the lightest, most diet sugarcoated form of saying bitch,

389
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:08,439
Speaker 4: are you sure about this? Because yeah, yeah, seriously. This

390
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 4: is a big thing for me because immediately I was like,

391
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 4: what the fuck have I done?

392
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 2: When you got pregnant? I mean, when I got pregnant.

393
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 4: After I had the baby, when I got home two

394
00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 4: weeks after that.

395
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 2: Well, no, when I got pregnant, I was so scared.

396
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 2: I was terrified. Did you cry? I didn't cry.

397
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,120
Speaker 3: I just felt fear Like I was like, yeah, like

398
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 3: I'm going to pass time right now. And I was like,

399
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:35,280
Speaker 3: oh my god, Like I don't even like kids.

400
00:19:35,800 --> 00:19:39,840
Speaker 2: You don't I do? Now? I love kids other than

401
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:41,920
Speaker 2: your own kids. No, I love all kids. When I

402
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 2: see the little kids, like really maybe like yeah, you know,

403
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 2: they got what I know. I have friends.

404
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 4: My friend who I just came back from visiting, she

405
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:52,399
Speaker 4: doesn't like kids, like she likes hers.

406
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:54,919
Speaker 2: But like she doesn't. I have to remind her like

407
00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,560
Speaker 2: you're her aunt, like you're Linna remember She's like.

408
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:02,920
Speaker 4: Oh, I was like her, just like I have friends

409
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:03,520
Speaker 4: who have kids.

410
00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:04,199
Speaker 2: There was a mistake.

411
00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 3: No, I I just it's not that I didn't like kids. Okay,

412
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,760
Speaker 3: that's a strong word. I just think I just I

413
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:11,880
Speaker 3: wasn't into like playing, Like I don't want to play

414
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 3: Hide and.

415
00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 2: Go Seek, I want to play. I just I think my.

416
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 3: Even like I have a really young sibling, my siblings,

417
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 3: my youngest sibling of six, so it's like a baby.

418
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 3: And like now that I have a baby, I would play.

419
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 3: But before I'd be like, I want.

420
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 2: To play, you know, it's so stunny to play.

421
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,439
Speaker 4: I see myself as this like nurturing maternal person, Like

422
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 4: I've always thought that I've always wanted to have a lot.

423
00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 2: Of kids, maybe because I'm a cancer, which was like

424
00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: the mother's sign.

425
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,000
Speaker 4: But when I told my dad, like I was telling

426
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 4: my dad like yeah I want He's like you want kids,

427
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 4: and I was like, yeah, you didn't know that, He's

428
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,040
Speaker 4: like remember, I just I was shocked that my own

429
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,680
Speaker 4: father like was questioning that I should be a parent

430
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 4: and be like wanted to be a parent. But like

431
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 4: almost like eight years ago, one of the coptail witch

432
00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,000
Speaker 4: I was telling him body, I was getting a puppy,

433
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,280
Speaker 4: and they were like, why you shouldn't get a puppy

434
00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 4: like everybody, And I was like, what nobody thinks of

435
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 4: any skills?

436
00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:07,159
Speaker 7: You?

437
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 2: Well, you're like, I'm mother nature.

438
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 4: I came off, I was nurturing Motherlike what are you

439
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,479
Speaker 4: talking about? So clearly my own self perception and everybody

440
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,680
Speaker 4: else's is off. But yeah, I mean, I guess I

441
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,800
Speaker 4: can see where people could get that idea, but clearly

442
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:29,600
Speaker 4: we are very mothering mother like.

443
00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 2: I love I love kids. Now it's usually the parents.

444
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 2: Parents do better. Parents bad parents make asshole kids do better.

445
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 3: But you know, I was. I was, and then I

446
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:50,439
Speaker 3: got excited because he was excited, and you know, but

447
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 3: then when my body started changing was hard for me

448
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 3: to At first it was.

449
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 2: Cute and then there was a point where I just

450
00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 2: wasn't cute anymore.

451
00:21:59,160 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 3: But it was my fault. I ate, like it was

452
00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:04,439
Speaker 3: my fucking full time job. Like I ate, like I

453
00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,119
Speaker 3: was eating for three and three How.

454
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 2: Much weight did you gain? Seventy pounds? Oh my god, Eric, yeah,

455
00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 2: seventy pounds. How did you even lose on that weight?

456
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,120
Speaker 2: It's been a minute, Yeah.

457
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:20,600
Speaker 3: Taking me almost three years, literally, Like I was like,

458
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 3: you're passed about that? At first, that's like I think

459
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,399
Speaker 3: part of the reason that like postpartum popped up for

460
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 3: me initially because I've always been so conscious of my

461
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 3: weight and my body and like being an actor and

462
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 3: like like a kid model or whatever.

463
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,600
Speaker 2: Like you know, you become aware of those things that

464
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 2: are kind of an early age, which doesn't help. Yeah,

465
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:41,000
Speaker 2: you come away.

466
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:42,439
Speaker 3: Those things kind of an early age. And so I

467
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 3: was always like a little self conscious. And so I

468
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 3: don't get me wrong, I look in the mirror even

469
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 3: now and like even back then and be like growing,

474
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 3: really hard. And obviously when you gained seventy pounds, it's

475
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:06,119

481
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 2: I went for my postpartum six weeks.

482
00:23:20,960 --> 00:23:22,960
Speaker 4: First of all, I was portion of the reason I

483
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,480

Speaker 4: postpartum bitch, I was ninety six pounds.

489
00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:42,119
Speaker 2: I was pissed. I'm like, check that again, what do

490
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 2: you mean it was only six weeks ago.

491
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,280
Speaker 4: You're telling me not any of this weight stayed thirty

492
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 4: five pounds and I come back with my negative too.

493
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:56,320

Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.

500
00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,160
Speaker 4: But when I found out I was pregnant, first of all,

501
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 4: it's so it's a bizarre thing because I was like

502
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,600
Speaker 4: living with my man at the time. I've known him

503
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 4: like fifteen years, so I shouldn't have been like freaked out.

504
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 4: But I cried. I like cried like a baby. And

505
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 4: I remember looking at him and he was like, oh

506
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 4: my god, this she's a bitch. I remember thinking like,

507
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 4: I'm a mean person, and I was just like, eh,

508
00:24:31,720 --> 00:24:34,480
Speaker 4: I was scared. And I was so scared that first

509
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 4: of all, I'm super hippie and I'm super.

510
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 2: Like, God send me signs, spirits, ancestors.

511
00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,800
Speaker 4: So I asked all my friends, like, do you guys

512
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,960
Speaker 4: know any like spiritual guides or like psychics? I asked

513
00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 4: all the hippie friends for two weeks straight. Nobody got

514
00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:50,680
Speaker 4: back to me. So I'm like, oh, this is something

515
00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:52,800
Speaker 4: I'm gonna have to make a decision about pretty soon.

516
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 2: So I'm literally at a friend's friend's house.

517
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 4: We've been there all day and I just smoked a

518
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 4: little weed and I said her like, do you know

519
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 4: any spiritual advisors I have, like this thing I really

520
00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 4: need to talk to someone about. She's like, yeah, my

521
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 4: friend Eddie she's inside. I'm like, really's like, yeah, she's

522
00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:09,320
Speaker 4: been here all day. She's the best psychic I know.

523
00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:12,200
Speaker 4: I'm like seriously, She's like yeah. I'm like I'm been

524
00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:14,440
Speaker 4: asking people for two weeks. I'm like, can you ask

525
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:16,640
Speaker 4: her if she'll talk to me? She's like yeah, I'll

526
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 4: pay her. So Eddie decides to do it. She busts

527
00:25:20,320 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 4: out her Tarot cards.

528
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 2: Oh damn. I didn't tell her what my thing was

529
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 2: because I was still skinny. I was like four or

530
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 2: five weeks pregnant.

531
00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:32,200
Speaker 4: And she starts reading the cards. Erica, this bitch, I'm

532
00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 4: looking at the cards they're facing. Her pulls a pregnant

533
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 4: Tarot card. Shut up, it was I didn't even know

534
00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:39,200
Speaker 4: if pregnant tarrot card existed.

535
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: And I'm looking like trying to break my neck, and

536
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 2: she's like, well, you see this card.

537
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 4: And after that, like I didn't, I consciously asked God

538
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,320
Speaker 4: to give me an answer. She clearly pulled the pregnant card.

539
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:55,320
Speaker 4: I didn't hear anything else she said. I was just like, oh, okay, God, okay,

540
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 4: well let's do it, you know, like okay. So, I

541
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 4: mean I basically kept my child because the strangers psychic

542
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 4: lady told me that it was in the stars.

543
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 2: In the stars.

544
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was scared, but I had, like I just

545
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 3: knew I was going to keep it, per keep it.

546
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:14,960
Speaker 4: Well, I mean because I help her. Like when we

547
00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:18,359
Speaker 4: got pregnant, I was twenty six, twenty seven. Yeah, so

548
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 4: I mean we're past the like unacceptable way.

549
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 2: I'm twenty seven.

550
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:23,879
Speaker 3: I've been with my man at this point for like

551
00:26:23,920 --> 00:26:25,440
Speaker 3: five years, you know.

552
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,960
Speaker 4: Mature adult. Yeah, and she's like kind of in high school.

553
00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:34,439
Speaker 4: I think I had started to feel more maternal in

554
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,360
Speaker 4: that last year for some reason.

555
00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:41,119
Speaker 2: A little bit more probably age. Yeah, And so I

556
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 2: just went for it.

557
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,200
Speaker 8: And here I'm blessed of my little Ivy Jane Yay.

558
00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:49,160
Speaker 8: Now we have children that are friends and very annoying friends,

559
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:54,960
Speaker 8: but it's still very nice.

560
00:26:55,200 --> 00:26:59,199
Speaker 3: But yeah, So I think you know, if you live

561
00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,359
Speaker 3: in the world that we live, which is Instagram, like

562
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 3: you see people and they have their babies and and

563
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:06,720
Speaker 3: they're like they've lost all the weight or there are

564
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 3: suddenly their baby wait turned into like like like musa

565
00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 3: video vixen body, or like they're.

566
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 2: Madly in love.

00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:20,920
Speaker 2: And yeah, and like we're going on walks and they're

570
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 2: all watching.

571
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 3: I think it's just so like confusing for someone who

572
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,719
Speaker 3: like has most part of it is seeing that as

573
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 3: a first time parent and they're just like, what, like,

574
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 3: what's wrong with me? Why am I not? Like, first

575
00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:36,960
Speaker 3: of all, am I why don't I look like that?

576
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 2: Yet? It's not even about love.

577
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:41,800
Speaker 3: Why don't I feel like that? I feel why I

578
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:43,280
Speaker 3: don't want to go to the park. Why do I

579
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:44,720
Speaker 3: want to Why would I want to go to the park.

580
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,399
Speaker 3: Everything's here, honestly.

581
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:52,639
Speaker 4: Like the day I left the hospital, they put me

582
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 4: in the car and I got home, I was like

583
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,720

624
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 3: I'd be tired like before when I before I had

625
00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:48,760
Speaker 3: a baby, I'm like, okay, yeah you're tired.

626
00:29:48,800 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 2: I get it. I'm gonna be so tired.

627
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:55,680
Speaker 3: Then until your art You're like this is beyond tired.

628
00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 3: This is some other shit. And that's where like it's

629
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:03,160
Speaker 3: just like can get confusing. The tiredness can make you depressed.

630
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 3: And if you don't have breaks and if you don't

631
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,320
Speaker 3: have someone to a support system, it's really difficult.

632
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 4: And then it's just like you're you're feeding the baby,

633
00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 4: you're changing the baby, You're bathing with the baby, you're

634
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:15,320
Speaker 4: getting the baby dressed, the baby's sleeping with you. There

635
00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:16,720
Speaker 4: was a moment I got home to the hospital and

636
00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,479
Speaker 4: like my baby's daddy was like here on my cheeks.

637
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 4: The baby was like right under me, and I was.

638
00:30:21,160 --> 00:30:25,320
Speaker 2: Like I was like, oh my god, I can't breathe.

639
00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,800
Speaker 4: And then like maybe like six six later, he was

640
00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 4: trying to like the baby went to sleep, probe me

641
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 4: for sex.

642
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:32,320
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god, I'm a machine. Like I decided,

643
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 2: I like you is give I give right.

644
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,160
Speaker 4: I felt like I was getting depleted, like my energy

645
00:30:36,240 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 4: was just going to this baby. Now you you just

646
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 4: put your dick out right, like, put that shit away.

647
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 4: First of all, we just had a baby. You see

648
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,560
Speaker 4: that where that gets us? You got to fuck away

649
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 4: from me from that thing. Don't ever pull it out again.

650
00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 2: It was pits. Oh my god, it's so true. You

651
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 2: do you feel like the giving tree?

652
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,960
Speaker 4: Yes, like wait, hold the fuck up. This is what

653
00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,200
Speaker 4: I this is what I signed up for. And then

654
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,440
Speaker 4: I think there's like it's because you know what, a lot.

655
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,040
Speaker 3: Of it, like I said, in social media plays a

656
00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 3: part because men are looking at these women that have

657
00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 3: babies and they're just out and about looking sexy and

658
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 3: their stollers and look fuckable, like you're just living this

659
00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 3: great post baby life and they're like, why isn't my

660
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 3: wife looking are doing this? It's because most of those

661
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 3: women aren't doing this either.

662
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 4: And then we live in this fucked up society where

663
00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 4: like we said, like, no one discusses this real shit

664
00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,200
Speaker 4: about what happens after you have a baby. Literally after

665
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,040
Speaker 4: I gave birth and I laughed, I was like, my

666
00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 4: vagina hurts.

667
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:31,600
Speaker 2: No one talk to me about that.

668
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:31,840
Speaker 7: No.

669
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,480
Speaker 2: I was like, don't laugh, Like, no one talks to me,

670
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 2: like you always think about the birth. It's gonna be

671
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:38,360
Speaker 2: so hard a da da dah, and then but then

672
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: you have then you're bleeding, you're fucking pussy hearts.

673
00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:44,720
Speaker 4: You can't laugh hard. It's weird, like these are none

674
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 4: of the things. Nobody mentions this shit. And then even

675
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,680
Speaker 4: within the mom community, I feel like there was a

676
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,160
Speaker 4: lot of pressure to be like we have like this

677
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 4: mom image, you.

678
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 2: Know, like you schoos to be fucking Susie Homemaker.

679
00:31:57,040 --> 00:31:59,480
Speaker 4: After you have a kid, automatically, you birth the baby,

680
00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,280
Speaker 4: you come up looking like Susie. You know, like, no,

681
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:05,760
Speaker 4: it's not what happens. And if you don't like live

682
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,720
Speaker 4: up to that, then you're like, something's wrong with me.

683
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 2: No, for sure, it's true.

684
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:12,400
Speaker 3: I mean there's just yeah, it's just I mean I

685
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:15,680
Speaker 3: didn't wash my like do my hair for like weeks.

686
00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:18,000
Speaker 3: I don't even know if that's postpartum. I think that's

687
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:21,840
Speaker 3: just the first four weeks also. But then if you

688
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 3: just keep it going, we're going and going, you know

689
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 3: what I mean, Like you have to get you have

690
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 3: even though like literally your life is never the same.

691
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:30,320
Speaker 2: Because that was my thing.

692
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:34,080
Speaker 3: I was like, I think postpartum depression is such like

693
00:32:34,880 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 3: people don't like to talk about it because it can

694
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:40,520
Speaker 3: be really embarrassing. The thoughts that you have some parents have.

695
00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 3: I fortunately did not have these thoughts, but I know

696
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 3: that it pops up all the time in postpartum, that

697
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 3: women feel like they want to hurt their child, that

698
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,400
Speaker 3: they have bad thoughts, that they feel totally disconnected from

699
00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 3: their child. And that's the worst thing that you can feel,

700
00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,440
Speaker 3: or feel judged by, feel.

701
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 2: Judged for as a woman. You know what I mean.

702
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 3: We're supposed to be these like maternal like beings, right,

703
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:05,680
Speaker 3: and that's not true.

704
00:33:05,680 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 2: We don't come in maternal. We learn it because you know,

705
00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 2: I could.

706
00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 4: Only be as maternal as you know your experience and

707
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,280
Speaker 4: if you've never had kids, right. Even I think I

708
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 4: went to the I had got the doctor maybe like

709
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,400
Speaker 4: a week after I gave birth, or maybe a few

710
00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 4: days because I had high blood pressure. And I was

711
00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,320
Speaker 4: in the waiting room at that OpEd my inn and

712
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,760
Speaker 4: the baby Luna starts crying, getting fussy, and I remember

713
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:33,000
Speaker 4: like shaking her, bouncing, and I remember all the women

714
00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 4: looking at me, and I just got this.

715
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:37,479
Speaker 2: I was like, oh my god, everybody's looking at me.

716
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:39,920
Speaker 2: She won't shut up. I'm doing it wrong. I just

717
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 2: touched your position. A couple of times unless she put

718
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 2: my blue rock. I was with my my, her dad's mom,

719
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 2: and she was looking at me. I just felt I

720
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 2: just had to step up.

721
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 4: I took the baby and I stepped outside because I

722
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,120
Speaker 4: felt so much pressure that the other women who probably

723
00:33:54,120 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 4: already had kids were like that, there's just no.

724
00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 2: She's doing well. You did it, you did it, you know.

725
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,960
Speaker 3: I mean I took baby classes and everything in the

726
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 3: moment she came. I mean, I have to say though

727
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 3: the moment she came, I knew how to hold her.

728
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:10,319
Speaker 2: I know that for sure, it does come natually, but

729
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,839
Speaker 2: it is still a very scary experience. But it's over.

730
00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,279
Speaker 3: When she came home, we were alone, just met her

731
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 3: and her dad. I was like, and then he left

732
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,439
Speaker 3: for like I don't know, to go get food.

733
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,759
Speaker 2: I was like, wait, what right? Any way coming on?

734
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 2: Are you okay? Like are you reading?

735
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,839
Speaker 3: And then just once I finally adjusted to being a mother,

736
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:34,440
Speaker 3: and I still I just then I just felt I

737
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:37,120
Speaker 3: was like, okay, I'm getting the hang of this. I

738
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,680
Speaker 3: haven't been out in months and I looked terrible. I'm

739
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,480
Speaker 3: still I'm still there's something, there's something different for me.

740
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,640
Speaker 3: Nothing's ever going to be the same again, and that's true.

741
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,680
Speaker 3: Nothing is ever the same again, and in the best

742
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:51,760
Speaker 3: way possible. But it's hard to see that at first,

743
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,080
Speaker 3: especially when you're in postpartum, which I didn't realize I

744
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 3: had postpartum until I was out of it and I

745
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,200
Speaker 3: looked back on it and I was like, Oh, you

746
00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 3: were not okay and you were not happy, and you know,

747
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 3: the person that you were with didn't know how to

748
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:08,960
Speaker 3: support you in that because they don't.

749
00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,520
Speaker 2: Teach men about that. They don't. They don't.

750
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,280
Speaker 3: Men don't even understand, even if if they get taught

751
00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 3: or whatever. It's hard for no men understands how a

752
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:18,920
Speaker 3: woman feels after you.

753
00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:21,760
Speaker 2: Literally women don't even know I understand how they feel.

754
00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:25,760
Speaker 3: Like our bodies are flushed out, like we gave birth

755
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:28,600
Speaker 3: and everything that we've been like incubating and holding in

756
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,520
Speaker 3: is just suddenly depleted.

757
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,560
Speaker 2: For other babies just like that. Yeah, and we're supposed

758
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,840
Speaker 2: to be just fine. Your hormones are literally raging. It's that.

759
00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:38,000
Speaker 2: It's that it's literally an influx.

760
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:41,160
Speaker 4: In your hormones or whatever readjustment. But it takes time

761
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 4: to adjust to that. And honestly, as soon as I

762
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 4: came home when I was sitting on that couch alone

763
00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:54,880
Speaker 4: and overwhelmed. I saw immediately how postpartum depression can easily

764
00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,160
Speaker 4: even how any woman who does how the baby can

765
00:35:57,200 --> 00:36:00,279
Speaker 4: easily fall into a form of depression because there's this

766
00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:04,280
Speaker 4: major transition and adjustment that nobody talks about.

767
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:05,560
Speaker 2: And no, it's crazy.

768
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 3: And we did a little bit of research and found

769
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,840
Speaker 3: out that one in seven women suffer from postpartum depression.

770
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 2: Which is a lot. That's a huge number.

771
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:19,680
Speaker 3: And it's even crazier is like four million, So four

772
00:36:19,760 --> 00:36:23,759
Speaker 3: million live births a year, six hundred thousand of those

773
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:28,240
Speaker 3: women that have those children are going to experience postpartum depression.

774
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 3: That's more than someone who has breast cancer, cervical cancer,

775
00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 3: a stroke, all those combined. These women there, there's more

776
00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:39,239
Speaker 3: cases of postpartum depression than all those things combined to women.

777
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,319
Speaker 2: So it's it's seriously a thing. And then it's a thing.

778
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,879
Speaker 3: After looking at these stats, I was like, damn, Like

779
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 3: like I was like really, I thought like I was alone.

780
00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,400
Speaker 3: And then I talked to my other girlfriend who experienced

781
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 3: it pretty badly, a lot more severe than I did,

782
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 3: and she was embarrassed to talk about it and to

783
00:36:58,560 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 3: hear her talk about it was like wow, wow. I

784
00:37:01,200 --> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 3: mean if I have felt the way that, if I

785
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 3: had those thoughts, like suicidal thoughts and thoughts of hurting

786
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 3: my child, I don't know who I would feel comfortable

787
00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:09,280
Speaker 3: talking about.

788
00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:10,640
Speaker 2: That with either, because you feel guilty.

789
00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,480
Speaker 4: Those so shamed, like ashamed, like who am I that

790
00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,279
Speaker 4: I'm thinking of killing my kid? But it's common and

791
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:18,680
Speaker 4: it happens. And because it's so shamed, it's such a

792
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,920
Speaker 4: it's so look that it's so shameful, and people don't

793
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:22,560
Speaker 4: discuss it and people are embarrassed.

794
00:37:22,120 --> 00:37:26,080
Speaker 2: To talk about it. Forty percent of those cases go undiagnosed.

795
00:37:26,440 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 2: So there's four million, like six.

796
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:32,319
Speaker 4: Hundred thousand women developed this and forty percent are not

797
00:37:32,360 --> 00:37:35,839
Speaker 4: even cases are not diagnosed. I mean, imagine how many

798
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,319
Speaker 4: people experiencing it and not a not knowing and be

799
00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 4: not getting help.

800
00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:40,840
Speaker 2: Right, No, it's crazy.

801
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,440
Speaker 4: And how many kids actually get harmed as a result

802
00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 4: or abandoned or actually moms kill themselves. The suicide rate

803
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 4: and among postpartum women is pretty high too.

804
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:53,080
Speaker 3: It's pretty high. Yeah, especially the kids. It's just like

805
00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 3: they don't know why mommy is disconnected from them. Why

806
00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,719
Speaker 3: is and even when you're even as a child, as

807
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 3: a as a baby, a newborn, you're you all, you're

808
00:38:03,800 --> 00:38:07,640
Speaker 3: you're just like this new thing in this world and

809
00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:11,000
Speaker 3: you don't have anything except your mother, right, and she's

810
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:13,520
Speaker 3: who you writ from. You Like, can you imagine what

811
00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 3: that what kind of effect that has on like a

812
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:16,160
Speaker 3: baby's brain?

813
00:38:16,719 --> 00:38:21,360
Speaker 4: Well, whenever, what did our stats say? Eleven percent?

814
00:38:22,239 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 7: No?

815
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 2: No, there was a study on eleven year olds who.

816
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,120
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, eleven year olds who's whose parents suffered from

817
00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,920
Speaker 3: post part of depression, and they had considerably lower IQs.

818
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,680
Speaker 4: I mean we don't I'm not sure what the variable

819
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,360
Speaker 4: or in that research, but I mean I can I

820
00:38:39,400 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 4: can see how important it is to bond with your

821
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:44,560
Speaker 4: kid and those to those you know, initial moments, and

822
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,799
Speaker 4: that not happening does affect your kids, even if they

823
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,239
Speaker 4: are just newborns and you think that it doesn't, that

824
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:55,239
Speaker 4: emotional like connect is it's pretty important. Yeah.

825
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 3: I mean these like suicidal deaths account for twenty two

826
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:01,040
Speaker 3: percent of postpartum mortalities.

827
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:04,000
Speaker 2: Like that's that's just twenty two percent of the lot.

828
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 3: That's just not okay, And it's kind it's like some

829
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,440
Speaker 3: people know like I'm depressed. Other people I think postparty

830
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:11,879
Speaker 3: we can be confusing because you have this beautiful baby.

831
00:39:11,960 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 2: So you're like, I'm not depressed, what I have this kid.

832
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 2: We're good where I'm happy.

833
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:17,320
Speaker 3: And then you're like, I'm not happy and I'm so horrible,

834
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 3: like I'm never gonna be able to go out again.

835
00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 3: Like everyone hates me. I'm I'm fat, I'm not pretty.

836
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 3: My husband doesn't want to have sex with me. He's

837
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 3: cheating on me.

838
00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,799
Speaker 2: Like all these different vagina hurts. My vagina hurts. My

839
00:39:28,920 --> 00:39:32,200
Speaker 2: vagina is not the same, right or yeah, like you know,

840
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,920
Speaker 2: like you just have all these did you tear? I

841
00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 2: had a sea section? Oh right, I forgot. Yeah, I

842
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:39,239
Speaker 2: don't recommend it.

843
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a whole different thing. I mean imagine yeah,

844
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,000
Speaker 4: even having a sea section. Imagine having a newborn and

845
00:39:44,040 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 4: then having to recover from.

846
00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:47,000
Speaker 2: A major surgery.

847
00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 4: They like to remove your like, don't they remove your

848
00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 4: your intestines. They're like they take everything out of your stomach,

849
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:55,960
Speaker 4: then hit the baby out, then place it back.

850
00:39:56,120 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 2: That's a major surgery. So people are like, oh, I

851
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,120
Speaker 2: want to schedule see section. No, bitch, you.

852
00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:05,960
Speaker 4: Don't, because you're like signing up for a newborn plus

853
00:40:05,960 --> 00:40:11,440
Speaker 4: recovering from a major surgery where they just removed your intendance.

854
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 2: And put them on the table. Hell no, let's just

855
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,080
Speaker 2: try to push it out the canal. If we can't.

856
00:40:15,719 --> 00:40:19,040
Speaker 3: I don't know how people opt for that, like to

857
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,239
Speaker 3: each his own. But because there's not there's not information,

858
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,960
Speaker 3: it's on my mind like I had, like meant try

859
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 3: to at least mentally prepare for what birth, childbirth would

860
00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 3: be like. And I just knew I was gonna have

861
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,120
Speaker 3: my child vaginally, you know what I mean, Like she

862
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:35,680
Speaker 3: was gonna come out of there. We were gonna have

863
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,279
Speaker 3: this bonding experience where she comes out.

864
00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:38,840
Speaker 2: I have this whole vision.

865
00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,640
Speaker 3: Quality because they have they have these videos were like

866
00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,840
Speaker 3: their mother would pull them out, place the baby, the

867
00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:47,360
Speaker 3: baby on their stomach. Baby like inches up to the

868
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 3: boh where to go. I've never seen the newborn inch

869
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:54,239
Speaker 3: up to anywhere. It seems like like a national weldlife

870
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:56,160
Speaker 3: so beautiful.

871
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:01,960
Speaker 2: I've never seen a new born crawl. I really will

872
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,439
Speaker 2: not crawl, but like wiggle, you know. But you know what,

873
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:05,520
Speaker 2: And that's a good point.

874
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:07,319
Speaker 4: Because I had this whole birth story that was going

875
00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:09,320
Speaker 4: to birth at home, just me and my baby's saddy.

876
00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 4: I wanted to do like an unassistant hippie home birth,

877
00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 4: which is totally insane.

878
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:16,759
Speaker 3: But what's insane it's yeah, maybe maybe baby too.

879
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 4: Yeah, I would still try again, but because I had

880
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:21,719
Speaker 4: like high blood pressure pre clamped.

881
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 2: Yet, I had to go to the hospital, which was

882
00:41:23,520 --> 00:41:25,160
Speaker 2: totally not in my plan. I did not want to

883
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:25,720
Speaker 2: the hospital.

884
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 4: But you know what that initial welcome to motherhood was like, yeah, bitch,

885
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 4: you thought you had a plan.

886
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 2: Now you don't. It was like you used to it.

887
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,600
Speaker 4: They don't plan, they don't like, let me, this is

888
00:41:37,719 --> 00:41:39,120
Speaker 4: this is how you get started from motherhood.

889
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:40,160
Speaker 2: Bitch, fuck your plans.

890
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:44,919
Speaker 4: So yeah, here I am not going by.

891
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,520
Speaker 2: Any of those plans. Yeah, no, I guess you're right.

892
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:48,760
Speaker 2: It's it's true.

893
00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 3: I've learned so many lessons just like that, because I

894
00:41:51,160 --> 00:41:56,360
Speaker 3: have that initial crawling out of my room, drinking fresh

895
00:41:56,400 --> 00:42:03,480
Speaker 3: milk easily messed milk easily as just gonna on perfectly's

896
00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:07,080
Speaker 3: going to just flow out to her, Look at shining face,

897
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:11,279
Speaker 3: blow a kids off eyeliner on right, not look like

898
00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 3: ship me too, horrible, Oh my god. But and then

899
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 3: so then that didn't happen, because that doesn't happen because

900
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:23,360
Speaker 3: I feel like I feel like had I went with

901
00:42:23,400 --> 00:42:26,200
Speaker 3: my gut, which was I wanted to give birth at home,

902
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:29,759
Speaker 3: or at least I don't I want to give birth

903
00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 3: at home.

904
00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 2: But I didn't really have My doctor wasn't very being

905
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:34,320
Speaker 2: very supportive. They're not gonny because he's not going to

906
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 2: make money, I know.

907
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,680
Speaker 3: And I also had no friends with children or that

908
00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:40,399
Speaker 3: I've ever given birth, so I had like no one

909
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 3: to talk to, like except my mom. But like I

910
00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,640
Speaker 3: was like, a bang, mom, there are no old school

911
00:42:44,719 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 3: I know, so I didn't and then which I will

912
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 3: not old school because I wanted.

913
00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:50,120
Speaker 2: When I told her I wanted to give birth at home,

914
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:51,120
Speaker 2: she was like, why.

915
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,120
Speaker 4: No, Yeah, that's well they're old school in the sense

916
00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:55,080
Speaker 4: like their hospitals.

917
00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:55,359
Speaker 3: Yeah.

918
00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,560
Speaker 4: Like my grandmother was like, oh yeah, who cares, they've

919
00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,120
Speaker 4: been doing that. My mom was like, are you crazy?

920
00:42:59,120 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 4: You're gonna die.

921
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,280
Speaker 2: So there's like you can see how the trend shifts.

922
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,400
Speaker 4: That's a whole different episode because I'm a huge I

923
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 4: think I should have been a midwife.

924
00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 2: Or still can. But I do want to.

925
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 4: I do want to do a topic about like the

926
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 4: options for you know, the type of childbirth through because

927
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:14,320
Speaker 4: there are options.

928
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,280
Speaker 3: I know, there are so many When I was researching,

929
00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 3: I wanted to do to a water birth.

930
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,759
Speaker 2: They had these water birthing centers you could go to.

931
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,640
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think it's just like I feel like

932
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,720
Speaker 3: it's like one of the most It just makes sense

933
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 3: to be birthed into water.

934
00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 2: You've been in water in your smooth transition and your

935
00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 2: comfort zone. Right you think Ricky lakele covenor show.

936
00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:39,160
Speaker 3: Ricky Please, I love born. That was one of the

937
00:43:39,200 --> 00:43:41,720
Speaker 3: reasons I was convinced. I went and got a midwife.

938
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:44,399
Speaker 3: But then he, like, you know, baby Daddy didn't really

939
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:46,799
Speaker 3: support it. He was had that old school mentality too.

940
00:43:47,000 --> 00:43:51,160
Speaker 3: And you know, I was already kind of nervous about everything,

941
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,040
Speaker 3: Like I was like the strictest like pregnant person, Like

942
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:55,920
Speaker 3: never did I have one piece of tiny sushi?

943
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,040
Speaker 2: Like really did I.

944
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 3: I would not eat cheese like certain cheeses, and like

945
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 3: I was like I need anything could happen.

946
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,799
Speaker 2: You know, that is so not my personality. That's how

947
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:04,799
Speaker 2: my personality eat.

948
00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:07,640
Speaker 4: I've been in Japan or eating sushi pregnant day, let's

949
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 4: go kind of farly.

950
00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 2: It is my personality.

951
00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,120
Speaker 3: I didn't realize I was like that until I got

952
00:44:12,160 --> 00:44:13,920
Speaker 3: pregnant and I was like, whatever you say goes.

953
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,680
Speaker 2: And so I think because of that, I just my

954
00:44:16,719 --> 00:44:18,920
Speaker 2: doctor was like, do you tell me still birthstart delivered

955
00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:19,560
Speaker 2: from home birth?

956
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,960
Speaker 4: Oh my god, that's an evil fucking thing for him

957
00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:22,480
Speaker 4: to say.

958
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 2: So like, yeah, that's shit, Like that's the likelihood is low,

959
00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 2: but it's there. Just do your first they'd like to

960
00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:30,719
Speaker 2: tell you the point five person first birth in the hospital,

961
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 2: the second birth. Once you get through it, you can

962
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:34,799
Speaker 2: do it that way. Blah blah blah blah blah. And

963
00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:36,399
Speaker 2: then when I was a week late, she was like, Okay,

964
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,600
Speaker 2: we got to induce you. Baby's getting too big. Meanwhile,

965
00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:38,920
Speaker 2: Like I.

966
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,440
Speaker 3: Was just with a girlfriend last night and she told

967
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:41,959
Speaker 3: me her friend delivered a ten pound baby.

968
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,360
Speaker 2: I was like, bitch, if people go like ten days,

969
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,200
Speaker 2: two weeks, after days, ever even eight pounds, like I

970
00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:50,200
Speaker 2: could have waited another week. Everybody has this is the

971
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 2: biggest thing.

972
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:54,680
Speaker 4: Everybody has different pregnancies, everybody has different styles of motherhood,

973
00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:56,279
Speaker 4: everybody has different deliveries.

974
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,399
Speaker 2: Like it's everybody does different shit.

975
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,799
Speaker 4: And I think like if we can embraced that more

976
00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:04,000
Speaker 4: as like a village of moms and there's less judging

977
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,480
Speaker 4: and less like these these standards of what it looks

978
00:45:06,520 --> 00:45:08,279
Speaker 4: like to be a good mom. People would a be

979
00:45:08,360 --> 00:45:12,560
Speaker 4: more honest and be be less fucking surprised when that

980
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:15,400
Speaker 4: baby gets out and it's not looking like Martha.

981
00:45:15,120 --> 00:45:15,960
Speaker 2: Stewart up in here.

982
00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,400
Speaker 4: And you know, we could, if we could have a

983
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 4: real conversation about the reality of motherhood. Like it's it's beautiful,

984
00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:27,680
Speaker 4: it's wonderful, but there's a downside, not a downside, but

985
00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:28,080
Speaker 4: like you.

986
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:31,759
Speaker 3: Know when they say it takes a fucking village girl,

987
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 3: Like I think back on like I think back like

988
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 3: when I was like living in when I was a

989
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:41,600
Speaker 3: Native American, But you know, they had, like they had

990
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,640
Speaker 3: support women of the village that like took care of

991
00:45:46,120 --> 00:45:49,399
Speaker 3: whatever child was born, like took turns, gave that mother

992
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,160
Speaker 3: a break. I just feel like postpartum was probably non

993
00:45:52,160 --> 00:45:54,160
Speaker 3: existent then because everybody.

994
00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:57,360
Speaker 2: It was down to participating. It's so important.

995
00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:00,800
Speaker 3: And my point is is participation is so important, especially

996
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,400
Speaker 3: if you have the part if you have a partner,

997
00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,720
Speaker 3: if you're with the father or the mother or whatever

998
00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,520
Speaker 3: whatever your sexual preferences, whatever, whoever you're with, they need

999
00:46:09,520 --> 00:46:11,600
Speaker 3: to be they need to know the ways to support

1000
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 3: you because it is rough out here. I don't know

1001
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 3: if we have any male followers, but it's very rough

1002
00:46:17,160 --> 00:46:19,719
Speaker 3: out here for us women when we give birth, even

1003
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 3: if we are trying and pretending like we got this,

1004
00:46:22,920 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 3: because you want to be able to do it all.

1005
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:26,319
Speaker 2: I know, I'm that type of way. I don't like

1006
00:46:26,400 --> 00:46:27,600
Speaker 2: to ask for help for things.

1007
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:30,720
Speaker 3: I want you to know, like I made this choice

1008
00:46:30,719 --> 00:46:32,759
Speaker 3: to have this baby, or I go to kill it,

1009
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,160
Speaker 3: and then sometimes I don't kill it, and I'm like

1010
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,240
Speaker 3: tired and I'm not doing well because I'm burning myself

1011
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:39,800
Speaker 3: on both.

1012
00:46:39,719 --> 00:46:44,000
Speaker 4: Ends and it's like it's physically exhausting and it's mentally exhausting,

1013
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:47,960
Speaker 4: Like there's a huge mental you know, physically your body's

1014
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:51,680
Speaker 4: going through you've made your fucking changes, and then mentally.

1015
00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 2: You're like it's a huge challenge too. So for spouses

1016
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 2: or boyfriends or girlfriends or whatever.

1017
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, you do have Like it's important that you educate

1018
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,120
Speaker 4: yourself on the signs of if your you know a

1019
00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:07,520
Speaker 4: partner is experiencing these types of things, because a it's

1020
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 4: good to protect the child because some people do have

1021
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,560
Speaker 4: extreme cases where they want to hurt the child and

1022
00:47:11,600 --> 00:47:13,040
Speaker 4: hurt themselves.

1023
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:15,000
Speaker 2: And you know, you need to be able to be

1024
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:15,520
Speaker 2: aware of it.

1025
00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,400
Speaker 4: To support them, we did some additional research.

1026
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:23,760
Speaker 2: Some of the symptoms were only road one two. My notes,

1027
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 2: this is why high school was bad for me. I

1028
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:28,120
Speaker 2: know it's say, disconnect with the baby.

1029
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:31,239
Speaker 4: If you feel a disconnection with your baby and you

1030
00:47:31,239 --> 00:47:35,560
Speaker 4: don't want to hold it, or you just feeling rude.

1031
00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:38,440
Speaker 3: Out the other one's Erica, Yeah, I know you feel

1032
00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 3: disconnected from the baby. You feel like useless, tired, want

1033
00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,359
Speaker 3: to You're gonna be tired. You're gonna be tired. There's

1034
00:47:46,360 --> 00:47:48,000
Speaker 3: just there's no getting around it. Just because you're tired

1035
00:47:48,040 --> 00:47:50,000
Speaker 3: doesn't mean you have part of depression.

1036
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:51,080
Speaker 2: Like that is normal.

1037
00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 4: I feel like everybody has feels farm depression, and to

1038
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 4: some extent. I mean, I'm sure there's like those instant

1039
00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:58,359
Speaker 4: moms that like that hot one with all the kids

1040
00:47:58,400 --> 00:47:59,800
Speaker 4: who are still skinny.

1041
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:03,319
Speaker 2: This is a fair stage. She looks like she never

1042
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 2: experienced anything like it.

1043
00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 3: She I don't even know where her baby existed, like

1044
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,799
Speaker 3: like I don't know it was. But then she has

1045
00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,279
Speaker 3: a beautiful, big baby and I'm like, yeah, bitch, where

1046
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:15,320
Speaker 3: the fuck was this baby?

1047
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 2: And the belly some people have big ribs or like

1048
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,640
Speaker 2: you looks so small. She did she looks like you.

1049
00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:22,680
Speaker 2: You guys were the same size, but even I had

1050
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:25,640
Speaker 2: a big ass belly. That was insane because we me

1051
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 2: and her were pregnant at the same time.

1052
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:30,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I was looking at her Instagram, I'd be like,

1053
00:48:30,120 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 3: I'll be over here, seventy pounds heavier, like.

1054
00:48:34,400 --> 00:48:36,200
Speaker 2: Maybe I just had my baby when I saw her.

1055
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 2: But even you know, at my homegirls, that's another thing.

1056
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,000
Speaker 4: Me and Erica became friends, like I guess the girls

1057
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,719
Speaker 4: were so small, but after we had kids, but so

1058
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:45,319
Speaker 4: a lot of.

1059
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:48,000
Speaker 2: My friends don't have kids or hadn't had kids yet either.

1060
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 4: And my girlfriend was like, why aren't you dressing cute

1061
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:56,000
Speaker 4: when I'm pregnant. I'm gonna dressed so cute, and I'm

Speaker 2: You're not doing your hair. You look a mess.

1065
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 4: I wanted to say, bitch, I will beat you with

1066
00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:05,360
Speaker 4: this fucking boot, okay.

Speaker 2: Because you don't.

1068
00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 4: You think it's all fun, it's fluffy and cute, and

1069
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,680
Speaker 4: I'm like, I mean, I've had some cute days, like

Speaker 4: twice and you know, like the ones to bur bikini,

1071
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:20,920
Speaker 4: but your body changes so quickly.

00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 2: Even me, I'm skinny, I don't.

1073
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:23,719
Speaker 4: I mean, I've always wanted to be thicker, but I've

1074
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 4: never had any like major body images issues because in

Speaker 2: Am thick and tall. But literally, when.

1077
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:34,600
Speaker 4: Your body starts to gain weight that rapidly, it is

1078
00:49:34,719 --> 00:49:38,319
Speaker 4: a strange ass feeling like you carry a child within

1079
00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 4: the nine you feel like an alien, like a nine

1080
00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:43,000
Speaker 4: month span, and you just start to bulge in one

1081

1084
00:49:50,239 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 4: So none of my clothes fit and I refuse to

1085
00:49:52,520 --> 00:49:54,480
Speaker 4: buy maternity clothes. I'm like, I'm gonna be skinny, like

1138
00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:09,080
Speaker 2: I don't want say nothing.

1139
00:52:09,080 --> 00:52:11,279
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to like devalue their feelings because a

1140
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:12,920
Speaker 3: lot of men will be like, well, i'm working, I'm

1141
00:52:12,960 --> 00:52:15,399
Speaker 3: working double time now now I have a family to rise.

1142
00:52:15,719 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 2: Hopefully that's the kind of thing you're with.

1143
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:27,960
Speaker 3: Anyway, So uh yes, huh, Okay, guys go back over there,

1144
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:30,560
Speaker 3: go and sit on the couch and watch Pepa. Yeah

1145
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:39,360
Speaker 3: uh so, yeah, I mean, but they they get to

1146
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,600
Speaker 3: go back to work, They get to go feel a.

1147
00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:47,360
Speaker 2: Sense of flamingo floating. What's happening? I don't love what?

1148
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,680
Speaker 2: Why should I trying to like? Everything?

1149
00:52:50,719 --> 00:52:50,880
Speaker 4: Is that?

1150
00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:55,319
Speaker 2: Take on a ride? I don't know. That is a

1151
00:52:55,440 --> 00:52:57,640
Speaker 2: very small flamingo floating. I think it's for a cup.

1152
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:00,839
Speaker 2: And my daughter is sliding see the floor with it,

1153
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,359
Speaker 2: she's writing it. It's very strange.

1154
00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 3: But yes, I think men and I don't want to

1155
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,960
Speaker 3: discredit the man's feeling like I was saying, because I

1156
00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,160
Speaker 3: know that they most good men will go and work

1157
00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:15,480
Speaker 3: extra hours because they know the baby's coming, or try

1158
00:53:15,520 --> 00:53:16,279
Speaker 3: to just figure out.

1159
00:53:16,719 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 2: You got to figure it out. Shit, kids aren't cheap.

1160
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,400
Speaker 2: But at the same time, like you, guys get to

1161
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:23,879
Speaker 2: go to work.

1162
00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 3: Even going to work, you get if you're if you're

1163
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 3: going to work hopefully, if you have a job you like,

1164
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:30,440
Speaker 3: you feel a sense of achievement, you feel like you're

1165
00:53:30,480 --> 00:53:33,560
Speaker 3: working towards something. You get to get out of your house,

1166
00:53:33,680 --> 00:53:36,240
Speaker 3: you get to feel like something other.

1167
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:37,759
Speaker 2: Than a father for eight hours.

1168
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 3: Whereas mothers that are like living at home or at

1169
00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:44,120
Speaker 3: home off of work for the next three to four months,

1170
00:53:44,120 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 3: and this is their whole life. It's it's it's intense,

1171
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,839
Speaker 3: like feeling like, oh my god, this is I'm a mother.

1172
00:53:50,960 --> 00:53:53,239
Speaker 2: Now that's it. I think I said only a mother.

1173
00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,160
Speaker 4: As soon as I started to get those feelings of

1174
00:53:55,239 --> 00:53:58,200
Speaker 4: like panicking, I remember taking learn into them all like

1175
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:00,839
Speaker 4: sixty days old. I didn't have to get at the mall.

1176
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:03,319
Speaker 4: I didn't need shit. I just was like, Okay, time

1177
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 4: to get out the house. Let's get let's get this movie.

1178
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:07,080
Speaker 4: Let's show the baby the world. The baby just through

1179
00:54:07,080 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 4: the world. She's curious. I was like, I think I

1180
00:54:10,120 --> 00:54:10,759
Speaker 4: got back to work.

1181
00:54:10,960 --> 00:54:13,800
Speaker 2: I think I went back to work like two weeks later.

1182
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 4: I just took the baby with me because I was

1183
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,480
Speaker 4: bored to death and I didn't I felt like my

1184
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:22,879
Speaker 4: life was dwindling away, like my normalcy, and I didn't

1185
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:25,160
Speaker 4: want to just like I've always had this fear, even

1186
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 4: as like a kid, I'd be like a frum by

1187
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:31,279
Speaker 4: van driving like T shirt wearing mom, and I never

1188
00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:32,640
Speaker 4: wanted to be that, Like I want to be like

1189
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,840
Speaker 4: going on the go and like still fly and hot,

1190
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 4: so I was.

1191
00:54:37,000 --> 00:54:39,680
Speaker 2: Just like, I think my anxiety kicked in the opposite way,

1192
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:40,560
Speaker 2: like I didn't want to not.

1193
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:42,520
Speaker 3: Look No, mine was the other way. Mine was the

1194
00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:44,279
Speaker 3: other way because I could. I took time off, you

1195
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:46,160
Speaker 3: know what I mean, I had the time off. I also,

1196
00:54:46,920 --> 00:54:49,719
Speaker 3: you know, I was acting, and when I was doing

1197
00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:51,680
Speaker 3: stuff for work, like I was always on camera. So

1198
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:52,920
Speaker 3: like I took the time off, and I was so

1199
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:54,640
Speaker 3: happy I didn't have to be on camera. I was like,

1200
00:54:54,680 --> 00:54:56,480
Speaker 3: I cannot, you know, I don't feel comfortableing on here.

1201
00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:58,279
Speaker 3: But then I put pressure on myself like I need

1202
00:54:58,440 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 3: like at some point, I'm like I need to lose

1203
00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:01,279
Speaker 3: this way at that point because it's some one I

1204
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 3: gotta be on camera job. Yeah, I was just putting

1205
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:09,200
Speaker 3: too much pressure on myself. Anyway, back to okay, crying

1206
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:13,080
Speaker 3: for no parent reason. I think mood swings, which you

1207
00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:17,840
Speaker 3: know we have to experience anyway, feeling overwhelmed. Change and

1208
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:22,279
Speaker 3: eating or sleeping, I mean that's pretty. That's pretty. I

1209
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:25,360
Speaker 3: mean change in eating or sleeping, that's every that's just

1210
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:26,080
Speaker 3: bound to happen.

1211
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 2: You're not sleeping the same ever.

1212
00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:32,360
Speaker 3: Again, No interesting your baby thoughts of hurting yourself or

1213
00:55:32,400 --> 00:55:34,839
Speaker 3: your baby that's the biggest one.

1214
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,279
Speaker 4: I mean, that's the one that's I mean with that,

1215
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,759
Speaker 4: if you're experiencing that, you need to recognize that that's

1216
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:41,759
Speaker 4: what it is, and you need to ask anyone you

1217
00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 4: can think of who you trusts, to take the baby

1218
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,399
Speaker 4: and go check in somewhere and get help, because there

1219
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:48,600
Speaker 4: is help and it does exist, and it's normal. It's

1220
00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:51,320
Speaker 4: not like you're a monster. You're not a bad person.

1221
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:53,960
Speaker 4: It's just like the hormones are real.

1222
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:54,719
Speaker 2: That shit is real.

1223
00:55:55,520 --> 00:55:59,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like feeling feelings of guilt and worthlessness, I felt

1224
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:03,560
Speaker 3: that way. I felt feelings of guilt and worth worthlessness.

1225
00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:07,400
Speaker 4: Maybe it's a guilt stemming from I think I felt guilty.

1226
00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,319
Speaker 3: I felt guilty like I never felt like I was

1227
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 3: doing it, like I wasn't good enough, like it was

1228
00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,520
Speaker 3: never doing enough to be a good mother, like I

1229
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,360
Speaker 3: have those feelings now. Then I felt guilty, like leaving,

1230
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 3: like if I ever wanted to leave, Like it's too

1231
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:20,319
Speaker 3: early to leave.

1232
00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,400
Speaker 2: I'm leaving. I'm guilty, I'm not a good mom. I

1233
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:23,160
Speaker 2: shouldn't go do this.

1234
00:56:23,239 --> 00:56:25,319
Speaker 3: I stay here all the time, like I wanted to,

1235
00:56:25,400 --> 00:56:28,520
Speaker 3: like get away. But then I also felt guilty about

1236
00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:30,840
Speaker 3: getting away That's another thing that was.

1237
00:56:30,800 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 4: Like those weird pressures and expectations and shit that people

1238
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 4: put on you, because people have all, oh you're leaving already,

1239
00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:38,319
Speaker 4: Oh you're going already, are you sure?

1240
00:56:38,360 --> 00:56:40,640
Speaker 2: Oh you want to go out? Or you're drinking. You know,

1241
00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 2: it's like, yeah, bitch, I haven't drinking nine fucking months.

1242
00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:48,360
Speaker 2: I'm gonna kill myself. Do you think it's true? It's true.

1243
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,960
Speaker 3: I mean there's so many different signs, and like I think,

1244
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,000
Speaker 3: like I was saying, it's so important that if you

1245
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,120
Speaker 3: have if you do have a partner, your family members,

1246
00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 3: like if you're listening to this and maybe you're not

1247
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 3: a mother or or like maybe you have someone in

1248
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,279
Speaker 3: your life that is going to be or is but

1249
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:09,080
Speaker 3: maybe your wife or your sister or whatever. There's just

1250
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:13,080
Speaker 3: different ways that you can help someone who's going through postpartum.

1251
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:15,839
Speaker 2: I mean it sounds like I just asking are you cool?

1252
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,160
Speaker 2: Like my mom kept asking like fifty million times, like

1253
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 2: how are you feeling? And my mom, what are you

1254
00:57:20,280 --> 00:57:22,880
Speaker 2: talking about? Now? I see what she was like trying

1255
00:57:22,880 --> 00:57:24,280
Speaker 2: to get at. But you know, sometimes you gotta be

1256
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 2: straight up.

1257
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, sometimes you gotta be straight up, and then you know,

1258
00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:29,680
Speaker 3: making sure that if they do know they're in postpartum,

1259
00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 3: letting them know that this is not their fault, because

1260
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,000
Speaker 3: it's not. They can't control it. All they can do

1261
00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:37,040
Speaker 3: is try their best to make maybe take steps in

1262
00:57:37,160 --> 00:57:40,200
Speaker 3: like in a more positive way to try to get

1263
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:42,640
Speaker 3: out of it. Yeah, it's not guaranteed to work, but

1264
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 3: I mean shit.

1265
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:50,160
Speaker 4: And then we've even touched on in our research. We

1266
00:57:50,200 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 4: haven't discussed yet the postpartum that women who've experienced miscarriages

1267
00:57:54,880 --> 00:57:57,520
Speaker 4: are still births experience, which I can only imagine is

1268
00:57:57,560 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 4: on a completely different level.

1269
00:58:00,160 --> 00:58:02,640
Speaker 2: That's like something that people never talk about. Never.

1270
00:58:02,720 --> 00:58:04,720
Speaker 3: It's like you don't talk about how you feel after

1271
00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 3: an abortion. It's like it's like it's done.

1272
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:07,160
Speaker 2: It's done.

1273
00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:09,440
Speaker 6: Abortion was not on the list. It was a miscarriage

1274
00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 6: or so guilty collegence. I mean, I mean the same thing.

1275
00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,240
Speaker 6: Though they need to add that to.

1276
00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:25,400
Speaker 4: The less because even though it's a choice, choice still hurts.

1277
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:28,000
Speaker 3: But had to well, no, sometimes you have to get

1278
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 3: abortions too, Like I feel like your life is in danger, you.

1279
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:34,240
Speaker 4: Know, like some people have like bad pregnant bag child

1280
00:58:34,240 --> 00:58:37,240
Speaker 4: burbs or whatever, you know, Like yeah, I mean, I

1281
00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:37,880
Speaker 4: mean I had an.

1282
00:58:37,840 --> 00:58:40,760
Speaker 2: Abortion in like or like you're raped or like.

1283
00:58:41,120 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 4: I mean, I actually met someone who was the product

1284
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:47,120
Speaker 4: of a rape. I think it was like a Christian

1285
00:58:47,840 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 4: a Christian camp. She talked to us, So even that

1286
00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 4: made me feel a certain way. So, I mean, this

1287
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:54,600
Speaker 4: is not a conversation about pro life for poor choice,

1288
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:58,240
Speaker 4: because obviously we're both pro choice, right Huh.

1289
00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:05,960
Speaker 2: Come on, I quit, come on, I can't go further me. Actually,

1290
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,600
Speaker 2: I'm very prolific. We found horrible make America great.

1291
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:15,120
Speaker 4: But I mean, but that is actually a good that's

1292
00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,360
Speaker 4: a good ad because it's true. Even though I mean,

1293
00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,959
Speaker 4: people take away from that, especially young girls or people

1294
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:21,600
Speaker 4: don't want to tell their parents or whatever, because that

1295
00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 4: was you know, that's the case. I'm damn grateful for

1296
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:28,320
Speaker 4: the high school since you play in parenthood because I mean, yeah,

1297
00:59:28,360 --> 00:59:28,840
Speaker 4: think about it.

1298
00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:31,240
Speaker 3: Just think about a girl who's in high school who like,

1299
00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 3: doesn't want to get an abortion, but doesn't know how

1300
00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:36,480
Speaker 3: to tell her parents, and she doesn't have any education,

1301
00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:40,000
Speaker 3: so she goes against the abortion that maybe she didn't

1302
00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:42,240
Speaker 3: have to get, you know what I mean, maybe she does,

1303
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:44,200
Speaker 3: maybe the baby wasn't going to live a great life,

1304
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:46,880
Speaker 3: but now she's depressed because she didn't feel like she

1305
00:59:47,000 --> 00:59:48,400
Speaker 3: had any other choice, and.

1306
00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:50,360
Speaker 4: She didn't even know that what post part of it

1307
00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:52,040
Speaker 4: is or that she's experiencing it.

1308
00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:52,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1309
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:56,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is that a late term abortion, because miscarriages

1310
00:59:56,160 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 3: and abortions can happen in the same time in the

1311
00:59:58,520 --> 01:00:02,919
Speaker 3: time same time frame, I mean, you know, because I mean.

1312
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:04,320
Speaker 2: One is farther long than the other.

1313
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:07,520
Speaker 4: Yeah. And then like I found myself like I've been

1314
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:11,880
Speaker 4: insensitive before, Like I know someone she's kind of young,

1315
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:14,480
Speaker 4: so maybe that's where I'm like judging. She had like

1316
01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 4: a miscarriaget like ten weeks and she got like the

1317
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 4: time tattooed on her and she's like always wants to

1318
01:00:24,080 --> 01:00:27,560
Speaker 4: like put Mother's Day, Like, well, maybe she was really

1319
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:31,280
Speaker 4: looking forward to I know. But I'm like, okay, that

1320
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:32,520
Speaker 4: makes me sound like a bitch.

1321
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:36,400
Speaker 2: Well, I mean I get it, I get it. You're like, girl,

1322
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:36,880
Speaker 2: you aren't.

1323
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 3: You don't need that child, You're not you It's like,

1324
01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:40,840
Speaker 3: I mean, so you're not ready for that child.

1325
01:00:40,960 --> 01:00:42,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just a bit much. But I mean, who

1326
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 2: am I'm never had a miscarriage.

1327
01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:48,200
Speaker 4: I mean I can understand more so like someone miscarriaging

1328
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:51,320
Speaker 4: after four, five, six months, especially.

1329
01:00:50,920 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 2: Like a still birth after you've carried a child.

1330
01:00:53,120 --> 01:00:54,920
Speaker 3: You know what about the people that are like I

1331
01:00:55,080 --> 01:00:57,440
Speaker 3: been trying to get preged for a long time and

1332
01:00:57,480 --> 01:00:59,520
Speaker 3: then they do, and then they you know, it's just

1333
01:00:59,600 --> 01:01:02,280
Speaker 3: it's just there's so many different like ways either way.

1334
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:05,360
Speaker 2: If you're pregnant once and then you're not, you can

1335
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:06,600
Speaker 2: experience most partum.

1336
01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:13,240
Speaker 4: Because it is hard. And then there's also the notes

1337
01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,479
Speaker 4: and a natal depression. I just played that word today,

1338
01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,480
Speaker 4: which is eleven point five percent people experience, and that's

1339
01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:23,479
Speaker 4: usually within your third try master that's before you give birth,

1340
01:01:23,520 --> 01:01:24,880
Speaker 4: which I didn't even know that she existed.

1341
01:01:24,880 --> 01:01:27,120
Speaker 2: I didn't even know this word. And a natal now

1342
01:01:27,120 --> 01:01:29,240
Speaker 2: you know it, but that exists too.

1343
01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:30,760
Speaker 4: So if you're in your you know, you're getting big

1344
01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,800
Speaker 4: and fat and it's time about that time and you're

1345
01:01:32,800 --> 01:01:36,160
Speaker 4: feeling depressed, that's also a thing. So it's not anything

1346
01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:39,000
Speaker 4: to like maybe I had that because you saw like

1347
01:01:39,080 --> 01:01:41,320
Speaker 4: towards the end, yeah, I mean, you know what, it's

1348
01:01:41,320 --> 01:01:43,680
Speaker 4: also hard to differentiate because at the end you're so

1349
01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:45,920
Speaker 4: fat and so uncomfortable and so out of breath.

1350
01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 2: You don't know if it's depression or you're just pissed.

1351
01:01:48,920 --> 01:01:51,480
Speaker 3: Like my friend literally right now, just text me Nishe

1352
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:56,600
Speaker 3: shout out to nishe hang, and she just wrote, I'm waddling. Yeah,

1353
01:01:56,800 --> 01:02:00,600
Speaker 3: I think at birth in like next month, and she's literally,

1354
01:02:00,640 --> 01:02:01,280
Speaker 3: I'm waddling.

1355
01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:03,439
Speaker 2: I feel different today than I did four days ago.

1356
01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 2: What the fuck? That's literally what she just texted me, right,

1357
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 2: because that shit is real. Four days can go by

1358
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 2: and you feel like you just grew times four. Yeah, yeah,

1359
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:16,120
Speaker 2: it's true. It's like you just I mean, it's a bizarre,

1360
01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:19,360
Speaker 2: trippy experience. It's so bizarre. It's bizarre.

1361
01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,760
Speaker 4: And I would really say that the birth part was

1362
01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:26,920
Speaker 4: like the least not bizarre, like the it's not the

1363
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 4: least trying.

1364
01:02:27,600 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 2: I guess the whole thing is pretty intense. The whole

1365
01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 2: thing is very intense. Did you, oh mae see section ocause?

1366
01:02:33,920 --> 01:02:35,720
Speaker 4: Okay, so I didn't want to have a berth in

1367
01:02:35,720 --> 01:02:38,600
Speaker 4: the hospital, but I did, and I didn't want to

1368
01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,000
Speaker 4: get a pre a epidural because I was on some

1369
01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:44,960
Speaker 4: hippie shit, but then two days later I did. So

1370
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,080
Speaker 4: as I'm giving birth, they ask you if you wanted

1371
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:51,480
Speaker 4: the mirror like to watch it, and I said, hell, yeah, Like,

1372
01:02:51,720 --> 01:02:52,840
Speaker 4: I don't know how manyime I'm gonna do this.

1373
01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:54,160
Speaker 2: I'm about to I want to see this shit.

1374
01:02:54,680 --> 01:02:56,560
Speaker 4: And literally in my birth video you can hear me

1375
01:02:56,600 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 4: say her head comes out. I said, oh my god,

1376
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:02,520
Speaker 4: Oh my god, this is crazy.

1377
01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,720
Speaker 2: And I said, oh my god, this is crazy. It

1378
01:03:06,800 --> 01:03:09,080
Speaker 2: is crazy. It looks like I feel like I was

1379
01:03:09,080 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 2: in the movie Alien.

1380
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:12,040
Speaker 3: I was so dragged down and see anything. I'm so

1381
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:14,080
Speaker 3: jealous that you got to see that girl. I was

1382
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:16,920
Speaker 3: a little uh whatever the back one, but I was

1383
01:03:17,000 --> 01:03:18,760
Speaker 3: fully aware to see that baby pop out of that

1384
01:03:18,800 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 3: koushi and I was like, this looks insane, dude.

1385
01:03:23,080 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 4: I mean it's cool to think of, like where the

1386
01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 4: where the portal, Like we are the closet bert trap.

1387
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,840
Speaker 2: Earth is the closest thing you'll ever get to the Maker,

1388
01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:31,560
Speaker 2: whoever you believe in, whatever you believe is on the

1389
01:03:31,560 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 2: other side.

1390
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 4: We literally become the portal for the he the Heaven's

1391
01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:38,480
Speaker 4: gate to Earth. So it is like I always think

1392
01:03:38,480 --> 01:03:41,120
Speaker 4: of it as a rite of passage too, Like it's

1393
01:03:41,120 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 4: a it's an intense experience, but once you get over

1394
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:46,360
Speaker 4: the hump and the transition, you know there's light at

1395
01:03:46,360 --> 01:03:47,200
Speaker 4: the end of the tunnel.

1396
01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 2: There is there's you know, there's a few ways I

1397
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 2: think that. I mean, I know helped me get out

1398
01:03:53,040 --> 01:04:11,920
Speaker 2: of Sorry, let me tell that Peter's thoughts to die.

1399
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,240
Speaker 3: There is I mean, I know there's been a few

1400
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:12,880
Speaker 3: ways that really helped me get out of my postpartum depression.

1401
01:04:13,840 --> 01:04:16,440
Speaker 3: I kind of just one day I lived in the

1402
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:19,160
Speaker 3: mirror and I was just like, I am so tired.

1403
01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:19,680
Speaker 2: Of feeling like this.

1404
01:04:20,040 --> 01:04:23,160
Speaker 3: Like it's like it's like I hit my my breaking point,

1405
01:04:23,880 --> 01:04:27,680
Speaker 3: and I was like I just had to remember, like

1406
01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:31,160
Speaker 3: how who I was before this, and that's and I'm

1407
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 3: still that person.

1408
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,800
Speaker 2: And it's like you start feeling like no, you're not. No,

01:04:34,840 --> 01:04:36,480
Speaker 2: you're not you don't look say or you're not allowed

1410
01:04:36,560 --> 01:04:37,160
Speaker 2: to be that person.

1411
01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:39,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're you're not allowed to be. Like I can't

1412
01:04:39,040 --> 01:04:41,360
Speaker 3: do I can't. I can't do this, I can't do that.

1413
01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:43,000
Speaker 3: I can't smoke weed, I can't go get drunk, I

1414
01:04:43,040 --> 01:04:45,560
Speaker 3: can't look at me, I can't party, I can't travel,

1415
01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:46,600
Speaker 3: I can't, I can't.

1416
01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:49,040
Speaker 2: There's so many fucking I can't. But that doesn't exist.

1417
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 2: That's bullshit. No, it really doesn't exist.

1418
01:04:51,320 --> 01:04:52,880
Speaker 4: It's in your head and it's in everybody else's head.

1419
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:54,320
Speaker 4: And anyone who thinks that flocked.

1420
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:58,240
Speaker 2: Them seriously fuck them. It's everything you can you can't, okay.

1421
01:04:58,320 --> 01:05:00,920
Speaker 3: And one of the first thing that really helped me

1422
01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:02,920
Speaker 3: get out of it was working out. I know it

1423
01:05:03,000 --> 01:05:05,800
Speaker 3: sounds so taboo like it sounds like, oh yeah, of

1424
01:05:05,840 --> 01:05:09,200
Speaker 3: course working out, but like, seriously, you have got to

1425
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:10,720
Speaker 3: get out of your house. And it doesn't mean you

1426
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:12,680
Speaker 3: have to go like run a mile, like just start

1427
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 3: with the walk around the block, you know, like even

1428
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 3: if I'm with your stroller or like maybe you need

1429
01:05:19,080 --> 01:05:23,240
Speaker 3: to like be like love, husband, wife, grandma, I need

1430
01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:25,959
Speaker 3: an hour today. Don't be afraid to ask for help,

1431
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:28,120
Speaker 3: because sometimes I'd be like I need an hour or anything.

1432
01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:31,000
Speaker 2: Demand it. Yeah, I need.

1433
01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:33,160
Speaker 3: Help, and you need don't be afraid to ask for help.

1434
01:05:33,200 --> 01:05:36,800
Speaker 3: Don't try to do everything on your own. And then

1435
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:40,080
Speaker 3: meditation helped me. And I'm like, I'm like the fake

1436
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,240
Speaker 3: hippie over here. It looks more hippie than me, but

1437
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:45,360
Speaker 3: I do do I really do meditate. I try to

1438
01:05:45,360 --> 01:05:47,960
Speaker 3: meditate every day I get I skip, like I'll.

1439
01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:50,800
Speaker 2: Go in silence or you have like a thing.

1440
01:05:52,560 --> 01:05:55,520
Speaker 3: I do and I like guided meditations, yeah, because I'm

1441
01:05:56,120 --> 01:05:57,560
Speaker 3: That's what I was gonna ask you. So I like

1442
01:05:57,720 --> 01:06:00,960
Speaker 3: the app headspace, I really like a lot. Oh, it's

1443
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:04,640
Speaker 3: really good. Headspace is good. Sometimes I put on YouTube videos.

1444
01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:07,040
Speaker 3: Sometimes if I go on a hike, I'll just take a.

1445
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:09,800
Speaker 2: Second and just sit, not too long so I don't

1446
01:06:09,800 --> 01:06:13,560
Speaker 2: fall asleep. You can fall asleep on a hike if

1447
01:06:13,600 --> 01:06:14,200
Speaker 2: I'm comfy.

1448
01:06:16,760 --> 01:06:18,840
Speaker 4: Sometimes I like to do Nomino home rang gyey kyo,

1449
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:21,440
Speaker 4: nommeo ho rang ye kyos because then I remember to

1450
01:06:21,600 --> 01:06:23,720
Speaker 4: like be mindful and not fall asleep.

1451
01:06:25,000 --> 01:06:27,280
Speaker 2: Yoga helped me because.

1452
01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:31,240
Speaker 3: I was doing hot yoga, so I was like working

1453
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 3: out intensely sweating, so I felt like it was so

1454
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 3: uncomfortable that my brain I literally couldn't think of anything

1455
01:06:37,040 --> 01:06:40,000
Speaker 3: because when I was in my depression, I was just

1456
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,680
Speaker 3: always had anxiety, always thinking, thinking, thinking, thinking that what

1457
01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:43,160
Speaker 3: was my future?

1458
01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:43,680
Speaker 2: What's my future?

1459
01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:47,520
Speaker 3: Did I do Launce? I make enough milk for her

1460
01:06:47,640 --> 01:06:48,880
Speaker 3: for me to go be here right now?

1461
01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:49,160
Speaker 2: Did I?

1462
01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 4: You know?

1463
01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:52,480
Speaker 2: And so it kind of shut that down for me.

1464
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:54,240
Speaker 3: And I was also like working on a losing weight

1465
01:06:54,240 --> 01:06:56,400
Speaker 3: at the same time, so I saw results. I was like,

1466
01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,240
Speaker 3: I saw results mentally and physically.

1467
01:06:58,400 --> 01:06:59,560
Speaker 2: Yoga is a big deal.

1468
01:06:59,760 --> 01:07:01,600
Speaker 4: I didn't realize what a big deal it was until

1469
01:07:01,880 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 4: like right after I got out of my relationship, I

1470
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:06,560
Speaker 4: went I started to do yoga a little bit, and

1471
01:07:06,760 --> 01:07:08,960
Speaker 4: I went to yoga class and I've got into a

1472
01:07:09,000 --> 01:07:12,440
Speaker 4: stretch and literally I just started to cry, and I'm like,

1473
01:07:12,680 --> 01:07:13,280
Speaker 4: this is weird.

1474
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:14,920
Speaker 2: I'm not even like a cry baby type bitch.

1475
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,720
Speaker 4: So but later yoga check it told me she's like

1476
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:19,880
Speaker 4: she she stretched one way and she was like, I

1477
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:21,280
Speaker 4: was just laughing hysterically.

1478
01:07:21,280 --> 01:07:21,800
Speaker 2: I didn't know why.

1479
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:23,720
Speaker 4: And then I stretched the other leg a certain way

1480
01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:26,320
Speaker 4: and I just start to ball out of control. And

1481
01:07:26,360 --> 01:07:29,160
Speaker 4: she's like telling us how different stretches of different places

1482
01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:31,040
Speaker 4: in your body physically can.

1483
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 2: Hold different emotions. So I mean, you know our physical selves.

1484
01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:39,800
Speaker 4: That really that yoga does intertwine with the meditative spiritual

1485
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:40,720
Speaker 4: growth too.

1486
01:07:40,800 --> 01:07:41,400
Speaker 2: That's a good.

1487
01:07:41,280 --> 01:07:45,320
Speaker 3: One that And Okay, so if your if your postpartum

1488
01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:48,880
Speaker 3: is really bad, I mean any type of postpartum, if

1489
01:07:48,920 --> 01:07:52,919
Speaker 3: you can go seek help, go talk to someone about it.

1490
01:07:52,960 --> 01:07:56,800
Speaker 3: Because I didn't realize I had postpartum until I go

1491
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,160
Speaker 3: to therapy, and so like, I didn't realize I had

1492
01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 3: postpartum until I was in therapy. She told you, she

1493
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:03,800
Speaker 3: didn't even tell me. I was like, I came to

1494
01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:07,720
Speaker 3: the realization myself really, and I was like, what. And

1495
01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:10,280
Speaker 3: same with my one of my friends, who's who is

1496
01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:14,040
Speaker 3: even currently right now battling postpartum and much more severely

1497
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:16,559
Speaker 3: than I did. She said she didn't realize she was

1498
01:08:16,560 --> 01:08:18,360
Speaker 3: in postpartum either, and then she but she was like,

1499
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:19,960
Speaker 3: I know these thoughts are not normal.

1500
01:08:20,000 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 2: I need to go see someone.

1501
01:08:21,240 --> 01:08:24,479
Speaker 3: And she was diagnosed with it, So don't feel ashamed

1502
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:27,280
Speaker 3: about talking about it with people. You need to talk

1503
01:08:27,320 --> 01:08:29,640
Speaker 3: to your partner about it. You need she needs to

1504
01:08:30,080 --> 01:08:34,080
Speaker 3: educate themselves. You know, they need to be reliable. They

1505
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:36,320
Speaker 3: need to be reliable for you during that time. Like

1506
01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:38,320
Speaker 3: if you are dealing with someone who has postpartum, it

1507
01:08:38,400 --> 01:08:40,360
Speaker 3: is so important that you're reliable for them. If you

1508
01:08:40,360 --> 01:08:43,120
Speaker 3: say you're gonna be home at seven, be home at seven, yeah,

1509
01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:44,679
Speaker 3: please don't be home at ten.

1510
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 2: No.

1511
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:47,439
Speaker 3: And that's not just some like woman like needy shit,

1512
01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:49,200

01:09:10,800 --> 01:09:13,840
Speaker 3: And and try to just just help out do things

1521
01:09:13,840 --> 01:09:17,000
Speaker 3: without her asking. That's damn near impossible. I know that this,

1522
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 3: this this tip is damn near impossible for y'all. Okay,

1523
01:09:20,760 --> 01:09:24,720
Speaker 3: Like for those that are self aware, try to do

1524
01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:27,360
Speaker 3: some housework, anything to make her life a little bit

1525
01:09:27,400 --> 01:09:29,000
Speaker 3: easier without her having to ask.

1526
01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:31,120
Speaker 2: She needs to feel appreciated.

1527
01:09:31,200 --> 01:09:33,320
Speaker 4: Like if you're just chilling on the couch and she's

1528
01:09:33,320 --> 01:09:36,479
Speaker 4: trying to get dressed, get the baby, right, if you

1529
01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:40,600
Speaker 4: can assist in getting the baby dressed, do that, because.

1530
01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:41,000
Speaker 2: You know what I'll say.

1531
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:43,599
Speaker 4: Also, I feel like, no matter how much your partner helps,

1532
01:09:44,680 --> 01:09:47,240
Speaker 4: you're gonna you're gonna still feel like, oh fuck, everything's

1533
01:09:47,240 --> 01:09:47,479
Speaker 4: on me.

1534
01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:49,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're still gonna resent them a little bit. That's

1535
01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:52,160
Speaker 2: normal because that's let's be real, that's mom. That's like

1536
01:09:52,200 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 2: the part of the role.

1537
01:09:53,120 --> 01:09:56,480
Speaker 3: Of the mone We have a bigger role initially, and

1538
01:09:56,560 --> 01:09:58,000
Speaker 3: sometimes we resent them for that.

1539
01:09:58,200 --> 01:09:59,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's just the way of the world. Like

1540
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:02,320
Speaker 2: they don't have breast milk, Yeah, it's not there. They

1541
01:10:02,320 --> 01:10:04,720
Speaker 2: can't hate them for it. Yes, I do.

1542
01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:08,920
Speaker 4: Another thing I experienced, which I don't think is necessarily depression,

1543
01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,200
Speaker 4: But this is just for people who are just having kids.

1544
01:10:12,640 --> 01:10:13,960
Speaker 2: Did you experience like I.

1545
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:16,360
Speaker 4: Would have really off the wall thoughts like oh my god,

1546
01:10:16,360 --> 01:10:18,640
Speaker 4: what if she falls down, rolls off the cliff, Like

1547
01:10:18,680 --> 01:10:21,280
Speaker 4: I would think of really extreme situations like oh my god,

1548
01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 4: what if that falls.

1549
01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:23,920
Speaker 2: On her head? Like I would just think of super

1550
01:10:24,160 --> 01:10:25,880
Speaker 2: and I and my friend had to tell me she

1551
01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:28,120
Speaker 2: has three kids, and she was like, no, that's normal.

1552
01:10:28,160 --> 01:10:30,479
Speaker 4: But that's your body training you to be prepared, prepared

1553
01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:31,120
Speaker 4: for anything.

1554
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:34,040
Speaker 2: It's not weird. You're not having that Mama Bear's like,

1555
01:10:34,040 --> 01:10:35,080
Speaker 2: you're not having dark thoughts.

1556
01:10:35,120 --> 01:10:37,680
Speaker 4: You're just thinking of all the possibilities, which is that's

1557
01:10:37,840 --> 01:10:38,920
Speaker 4: that's normal as a mom.

1558
01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:40,960
Speaker 2: Like Okay, get down, because I no, I'm not saying

1559
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:42,960
Speaker 2: them get down. I say because you.

1560
01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:44,880
Speaker 4: Know, you're just like your brain is beginning to train

1561
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:48,040
Speaker 4: to basically have your ears and eyes open in a

1562
01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:49,479
Speaker 4: fifty mile radius at all times.

1563
01:10:49,720 --> 01:10:52,599
Speaker 2: Right, No, for sure, for sure?

1564
01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:57,320
Speaker 3: And I think also making sure you get her out

1565
01:10:58,040 --> 01:10:59,519
Speaker 3: date night once a.

1566
01:10:59,439 --> 01:11:02,080

1568
01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:05,559
Speaker 2: doesn't have to you don't have to spend money.

1569
01:11:05,560 --> 01:11:10,000
Speaker 3: You just go on a walk together, like seriously, like

1570
01:11:10,720 --> 01:11:13,240
Speaker 3: anything to make But you know, taking her out.

1571
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,400
Speaker 2: On a date was always ideal. I mean if your.

1572
01:11:18,920 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 3: Because I want to like ideally take her somewhere where

1573
01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 3: she needs to get dressed so she can get out.

1574
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:27,240
Speaker 2: Of Mommy's an event she needs to.

1577
01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,519
Speaker 3: that day, so you're gonna have to save all week,

1578
01:11:34,800 --> 01:11:35,559
Speaker 3: but trust me.

1579
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:38,719
Speaker 4: It's worth it for the headache that you'll be resolved

1580
01:11:38,720 --> 01:11:39,680
Speaker 4: from exactly.

1581
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:43,000
Speaker 3: So I just think like that, and then also being

1582
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:46,080
Speaker 3: patient with her sex drive because I think a lot's

1583
01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:46,920
Speaker 3: a lot of pressure too.

1584
01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:48,640
Speaker 2: We just gave a birth and now you want to

1585
01:11:48,680 --> 01:11:52,840
Speaker 2: put hormones affect that too. Yeah, Like I wasn't horning

1586
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,639
Speaker 2: it all during pregnans me neither at all.

1587
01:11:55,760 --> 01:11:59,360
Speaker 4: Like all I was like the most yeasty I've ever

1588
01:11:59,439 --> 01:12:01,320
Speaker 4: been in my life, and I wanted to kill myself

1589
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:03,760
Speaker 4: and I didn't want a dick to be anywhere close

1590
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:06,200
Speaker 4: to like get that ship out of my face. So

1591
01:12:06,320 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 4: like slowly after it came back. But yeah, yeah, be patient,

1592

1594
01:12:13,520 --> 01:12:14,000

Speaker 2: Like jacking off? Oh yeah yeah. Just and and one more.

1598
01:12:30,600 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 4: Last advice for moms. I think in general, you know,

1599
01:12:36,400 --> 01:12:39,839
Speaker 4: like you just have to relax, like chill out. Baby's

1600
01:12:39,880 --> 01:12:43,320
Speaker 4: gonna be babies, babies are gonna cry. Don't take everybody's

1601
01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:45,880
Speaker 4: advice so literally, like if you listen to everybody, you'll

1602
01:12:45,880 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 4: stress yourself the fuck out. Stay in tune with yourself,

1603
01:12:48,840 --> 01:12:51,759
Speaker 4: like do what the fuck you want to do. Connect

1604
01:12:51,800 --> 01:12:53,519
Speaker 4: with who you used to be because you're still that person.

1605
01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:56,439
Speaker 4: You don't have to transform into this new woman. And

1606
01:12:56,600 --> 01:12:59,200
Speaker 4: just don't like helicopter kid your kid all the time.

1607
01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:02,280
Speaker 2: Like people sho developed that habit after baby too.

1608
01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:05,360
Speaker 4: But I'm like super chillaxed because even my friends, I'm like, girl,

1609
01:13:05,439 --> 01:13:07,280
Speaker 4: let her live, she's fine.

1610
01:13:07,400 --> 01:13:09,720
Speaker 2: Is she killing anyone? She's fine? You know.

1611
01:13:09,760 --> 01:13:11,599
Speaker 4: And I think some people have like all these pressures

1612
01:13:11,600 --> 01:13:13,320
Speaker 4: from like how they're supposed to mom or what their

1613
01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:15,680
Speaker 4: their kids are supposed to do and their kids are

1614
01:13:15,680 --> 01:13:18,120
Speaker 4: supposed to behave and like the kids are kids, their children,

1615
01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 4: they're learning, and it's okay to like allow them to

1616
01:13:20,840 --> 01:13:21,200
Speaker 4: do that.

1617
01:13:21,240 --> 01:13:24,080
Speaker 2: So don't feel like you have to like be a

1618
01:13:24,080 --> 01:13:24,919
Speaker 2: certain way.

1619
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 3: No, you don't, you really don't. I fell into that,

1620
01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:30,240
Speaker 3: I feel like, and it took me a while. I

1621
01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:32,400
Speaker 3: don't even know why I fell into it. It's like

1622
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:36,120
Speaker 3: this wasn't anyone's fault except my own, but I just

1623
01:13:36,160 --> 01:13:39,479
Speaker 3: felt like, no, I can't do this anymore. I can't

1624
01:13:39,479 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 3: do that anymore.

1625
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:41,920
Speaker 2: It took me a while to like, can I wear

1626
01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:44,120
Speaker 2: this on somebody's mom? No, but she if I can

1627
01:13:44,160 --> 01:13:46,080
Speaker 2: fit it, I can wear. It wasn't the clothes. It

1628
01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 2: was more like what I could.

1629
01:13:47,080 --> 01:13:50,400
Speaker 3: Do socially, Yeah, yeah, Like I can't be out here,

1630
01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:51,000
Speaker 3: like I'm not.

1631
01:13:51,120 --> 01:13:53,720
Speaker 2: I can't. I can't get high. I'm tired already, and

1632
01:13:53,840 --> 01:13:55,559
Speaker 2: plus like what do I look like being high?

1633
01:13:55,680 --> 01:13:55,840
Speaker 3: Right?

1634
01:13:55,800 --> 01:14:00,160
Speaker 2: And like also like the father and my child's.

1635
01:14:00,320 --> 01:14:02,640
Speaker 3: Non stop and I would be so annoyed when I

1636
01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:04,920
Speaker 3: was pregnant and he would be smoking all the time,

1637
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:06,679
Speaker 3: and I'd be like, oh, so you can just smoke

1638
01:14:06,760 --> 01:14:07,320
Speaker 3: all the time.

1639
01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:08,960
Speaker 2: Then yeah, like you're not supposed to.

1640
01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:10,639
Speaker 3: Then it became like you're not supposed to stow because

1641
01:14:10,680 --> 01:14:12,520
Speaker 3: you're gonna be a dad too, you better figure.

01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:23,599

1647
01:14:23,680 --> 01:14:26,400
Speaker 2: I wasn't cheafing every fucking five second. I smoked. I

1648
01:14:26,800 --> 01:14:28,840
Speaker 2: tried to smoke, but honestly, I just didn't even want it.

1649
01:14:29,320 --> 01:14:31,799
Speaker 3: I smoked a few times, like a few little puffs,

1650
01:14:31,800 --> 01:14:34,200
Speaker 3: and I was like, oh, same with drinking, like I

1651
01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:36,240
Speaker 3: didn't even want I did want a margarita, which I

1652
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:36,680
Speaker 3: didn't have.

1653
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:39,760
Speaker 2: Guys, don't worry, which would have been fine if I didn't,

1654
01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:44,000
Speaker 2: if you do, like, no, I did it, but I didn't.

1655
01:14:44,040 --> 01:14:47,120
Speaker 2: But that's that's also placed into my whole thing that

1656
01:14:47,200 --> 01:14:49,040
Speaker 2: I was very like I was buried by the book

1657
01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:53,120
Speaker 2: during my pant I ate sushi. I ate chese cold cuts.

1658
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:55,320
Speaker 2: I'm just kidding any cold cuts, but you know you

1659
01:14:55,360 --> 01:14:57,759
Speaker 2: made sushi. I didn't eat those cold cuts, but sushi

1660
01:14:57,840 --> 01:15:01,200
Speaker 2: raw sushi. I banged out some sushi.

1661
01:15:01,240 --> 01:15:03,599
Speaker 4: I didn't think about it twice because I thought women

1662
01:15:03,640 --> 01:15:06,679
Speaker 4: in Japan are eating pregnant sushi, you know, And it's.

1663
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:08,680
Speaker 2: Not about that, I think more so as America and

1664
01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:10,439
Speaker 2: our food is Probably it was a mercury. I mean

1665
01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,040
Speaker 2: that it's fine. So yeah's she.

1666
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:14,639
Speaker 4: Does like shrimp way too much for a three year old.

1667
01:15:15,040 --> 01:15:17,080
Speaker 4: She thinks that's the only dish that exists, So that's

1668
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:17,800
Speaker 4: probably my fault.

1669
01:15:17,880 --> 01:15:21,920
Speaker 3: But oh my god, well, I don't know if I

1670
01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:24,240
Speaker 3: have anything else to contribute to this conversation.

1671
01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:27,639
Speaker 2: I mean, and this conversation can keep going forever, and

1672
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:28,160
Speaker 2: this is.

1673
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:30,200
Speaker 3: This is like the tip of the iceberg when it

1674
01:15:30,200 --> 01:15:32,400
Speaker 3: comes to it, because there's so many different aspects of

1675
01:15:32,439 --> 01:15:34,560
Speaker 3: postpartum depression, like we talked about.

1676
01:15:35,479 --> 01:15:37,600
Speaker 2: But I hope that we were like somewhat informative.

1677
01:15:38,120 --> 01:15:41,320
Speaker 4: And I mean, if not informative, at least like if

1678
01:15:41,320 --> 01:15:43,920
Speaker 4: you are experiencing this about to experience it or have

1679
01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,400
Speaker 4: at least you don't feel crazy, because I know I

1680
01:15:46,439 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 4: was feeling crazy.

1681
01:15:47,520 --> 01:15:49,479
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you know, there's other real as.

1682
01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:52,360
Speaker 4: Women out here just like you that are experiencing the

1683
01:15:52,360 --> 01:15:53,839
Speaker 4: same thing, so you're not alone.

1684
01:15:54,160 --> 01:15:56,439
Speaker 2: And if you do experience these things.

1685
01:15:56,520 --> 01:15:59,120
Speaker 4: It's okay to call a friend or get some help,

1686
01:15:59,240 --> 01:16:01,000
Speaker 4: and it's not it's not weird.

1687
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:03,280
Speaker 2: And if you don't have those friends, we'll be your friends,

1688
01:16:03,360 --> 01:16:06,599
Speaker 2: just like yeah, we really honestly, Like if you don't

1689
01:16:06,600 --> 01:16:09,719
Speaker 2: have a babysitter, I'm the type of mom like, okay,

1690
01:16:10,120 --> 01:16:11,439
Speaker 2: what's wrong? You gt me pick up the baby at

1691
01:16:11,439 --> 01:16:11,800
Speaker 2: one time?

1692
01:16:12,439 --> 01:16:14,400
Speaker 4: Like I've only seen I've only met this girl four times,
