Um, 40 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: I was really relaxed during my pregnancy. I wasn't like, 41 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,560 Speaker 1: you can't eat this, you can't eat this. I just 42 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: listened to my body, and I have a healthy relationship 43 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,959 Speaker 1: with food, so there wasn't like, let me binge on 44 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 1: a bag of chips or whatever. And I don't naturally 45 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,519 Speaker 1: have a sweet tooth. So I felt like I did 46 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: pretty good during my pregnancy because I just ate what 47 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: I wanted, which was really healthy stuff because I love that. 48 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 1: But then the baby comes out and then you know, 49 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: it takes six weeks for your uterus to shrink. I 50 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: was very lucky knock on wood f for the next 51 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 1: one too, and didn't have that much bleeding. I had 52 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: a really easy birth, and still then like your uterus 53 00:02:58,200 --> 00:03:01,520 Speaker 1: shrinks and you're like, oh, this is, you know, totally 54 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:04,919 Speaker 1: different because there's not a humanity. I remember the text 55 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: you sent me after you had now. Amy and I 56 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: have been best friends as we're like seventeen years old, 57 00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:11,080 Speaker 1: and she sent me a text after she gave birth 58 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:13,640 Speaker 1: to her daughter, Ellie, and I've never seen your boobs 59 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: like that in my life. They were ginormous and now 60 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:21,880 Speaker 1: they're just like non existent sacks. And they were I mean, 61 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: that was the other thing I've I've always been a 62 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 1: petite person. I've never had boobs, so suddenly to have 63 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't even know what they were. Maybe 64 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 1: I don't know. I was wearing your old maternity bras 65 00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: and I didn't recognize my button. It was also like, 66 00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: you know, once the baby's out, then you're not like, oh, 67 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 1: I'm pregnant, so you know, whatever my body is, there's 68 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: like this basketball in me. Then it's just suddenly like 69 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: on a different shape, and especially I mean not five 70 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 1: feet tall. So I was like, this is just a weird. Yeah, 71 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: I didn't know how to dress for boobs. I did 72 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: everything I wore. I just like I finally understood people 73 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: that are constantly like pulling their shirt away and you're like, oh, 74 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: I have this or extra layer like a tube on 75 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 1: my stomach, and my thighs don't fit in my jeans. 76 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 1: And but also you're just trying to keep a person alive. 77 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 1: So it's this combo of you know, you're filled with 78 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,960 Speaker 1: all these hormones and you're just emotional and grateful and 79 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: were you did you have a hard time during your 80 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: pregnancy every time you checked in with the doctor on 81 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: the weight game, No, I'm weirdly like, No, I was 82 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: pretty on. You know, you were stoked about it. I 83 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,600 Speaker 1: didn't really I don't know. I wasn't. I thought I 84 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 1: would be more anxious about it than I was, and 85 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,599 Speaker 1: I wasn't. I think it's game, like thirty five pounds 86 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: or something. And I've had clients that gained I mean 87 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,080 Speaker 1: people we know gained like eighty or ninety pounds. I 88 00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: have a friend who's like, she's like five nine, she's 89 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: super skinny, and she gained like nine pounds and she's, 90 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:50,559 Speaker 1: you know, she's like both times. She has two sons. 91 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 1: She was like, that's just what my body did. So 92 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. I know, I know that before I 93 00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 1: was pregnant, I had a pretty small frame, and so 94 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 1: I kept saying, my body needs this to be able 95 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: to hold the weight of a human on my front side. 96 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 1: And Nicole, how many children do you have? I have 97 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 1: three boys, but it's the same. I mean, I, how 98 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: did you feel each time getting pregnant? And like, I feel, 99 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: I loved it. Um. I don't know if it was 100 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: because I had boys, but I didn't have any morning 101 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 1: sickness or anything. I felt really, I felt really beautiful. 102 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: I don't. I just really loved being pregnant. I was 103 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: one of those lucky ones, um, and I took it 104 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,120 Speaker 1: on as a challenge, like I had a new shape, 105 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: and so for me it was kind of fun like 106 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:47,160 Speaker 1: so like of course you'd be like, I'm excited by 107 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: the challenge, which I think is a really good way 108 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 1: for our listeners to maybe approach how to dress yourself. 109 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: And this I'm speaking, I'm projecting onto myself here of 110 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: what I'm about to say, But the challenge of how 111 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: do I dress for an you body throughout this whole thing, 112 00:06:01,640 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe maybe try to change it into a positive. Absolutely, 113 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: I think that for me, you know, as a stylist, 114 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: I'm always working with different body types, so I'm used 115 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: to not I want to use it the word challenge, 116 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: but I'm used to seeing it objectively. So I think 117 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: if you step back and you look at it as 118 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: like a temporary situation, like this is my body currently, 119 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: and so I'm gonna address myself for this, this isn't 120 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: doesn't define who I am, um, then it's easier to 121 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,720 Speaker 1: approach it instead of it being this is my new 122 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: life or feeling down on yourself. So I loved having 123 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:35,679 Speaker 1: big babies because I didn't have any I don't, I don't. Yeah, 124 00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 1: So but when I was pregnant. I was like, oh, 125 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: this is great, and I think I would have had 126 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: maybe a different like I was okay. I think during 127 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: the pregnancy with I guess I was okay. With the 128 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: weight game, there was a little bit challenge. No, it 129 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: was very challenging. What am I saying? I'm you guys. 130 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: Memory is really an amazing thing because how you remember 131 00:06:57,560 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 1: things as always different than that it was. But like 132 00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:02,040 Speaker 1: I was on tele vision through my pregnancy, and I 133 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: was on television post my pregnancy, and it is true 134 00:07:05,640 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: that the camera does already add waight um, and I've 135 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: already been the person that went through my life Like 136 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: on Scandal. The number one thing that people fans come 137 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: up to me and say is, oh my god, the 138 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: camera really does add ten pounds, or they say things 139 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: to me like this is no joke. Like most fans 140 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: come up to me and and put their foot in 141 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: their mouth and it's okay. They they're usually like kind 142 00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: of shell shocked, and they're lovely and they're trying to 143 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,000 Speaker 1: maybe say a compliment, but they're confused and they're like, 144 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: oh my god, they're meeting someone that I was on 145 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,960 Speaker 1: a show that they watched every Thursday. In their living 146 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: room for eight years. But they usually say things to 147 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: me like, oh my god, you're like small, or you're 148 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 1: normal sized, or you know, like I'm a size eight 149 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 1: ish to I don't know something of that, but in 150 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: Hollywood that is a It sucks, but it's it's a 151 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: more bigger frame than a lot of the women we 152 00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: are used to sing on television. So to add to 153 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 1: that regularly, now I'm going to put on you know, um, 154 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: I think I gained like forty pounds or something that 155 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: on television. I went back to work after um, he 156 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: was about eight weeks. Now what's amazing is I had 157 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: the greatest boss in the world, shown to Rhymes, who 158 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: is nothing but incredibly supportive of like whatever. Like she 159 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: was so psych's incredible. She was always very supportive of 160 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: how I look and and it's the best. Um. And 161 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 1: she was very supportive about my pregnancy and putting it 162 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 1: on TV and and I looked how I looked. But 163 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: I have to admit completely through self esteem and confidence, 164 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 1: I can't go back and watch those episodes. To me, 165 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 1: like my face just looks and some people get pregnant 166 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:47,520 Speaker 1: and their face doesn't change. And Carrie Washington although she 167 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 1: would probably say that hers did, but to me, she 168 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: looked amazing. Um, But when I watched my face on Scandal, 169 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm like, oh my god, Like the close 170 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: ups are seven hundred chins whatever. So it's hard for 171 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,320 Speaker 1: me to go back and know that that I did that. Um, 172 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: it's on television. I feel like when I watch you, 173 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:13,439 Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't see that at all. And the glow. 174 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: But it's true. When people say that's true, it's true. 175 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,680 Speaker 1: It's inspiring. I mean, you're you're not. I mean, there's 176 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 1: a lot of people that wouldn't have the courage to 177 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: do that or or you know, when you're glow, I 178 00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:30,199 Speaker 1: just you're sweaty and fact just like like skin and 179 00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: your delips, Like I mean, your lips are already amazing 180 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 1: and then they were.

So you're just like it's from within. 182 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: I think it's very good that we're talking about this 183 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: and you guys have a different, more positive outlook. And 184 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: please listeners, I hope that you can really shift your mind, 185 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,600 Speaker 1: um to think about pregnancy more in that way. And 186 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: you know, I I did come to terms. I do 187 00:09:53,920 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: once in a while look back, like I don't know 188 00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 1: anyone out there listening was pregnant. Like we totally did 189 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: do like a nudy pregnancy photos shoot, just Adam and 190 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:06,440 Speaker 1: I like nips covered. You know, I covered it, but 191 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 1: like made it a little bit like Soldier because I 192 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: was like, you know what, this is amazing that my 193 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: body is doing this. It's insane, Like I will be 194 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:16,959 Speaker 1: lucky if it does it once, maybe twice in Nicole 195 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,719 Speaker 1: Chevez's three times um, and it's just an amazing thing 196 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: to capture. UM and somebody's like made to do it too, 197 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:29,800 Speaker 1: like it's three kids, I mean, um, Nicole. As a 198 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: personal stylist, you get up and close and personal with 199 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 1: your clients. Can you talk about how do you approach 200 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: somebody who's had a baby or might be pregnant as 201 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,840 Speaker 1: far as fashion is concerned. I mean, like you said, 202 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: it's a sensitive time and everybody has a different approach 203 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 1: to it. Um. Like when we started working together, I 204 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 1: feel like it was really organic and I wanted to 205 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: just bring out like your own personal style, and I 206 00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: think we we really worked on the basic silhouettes and 207 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 1: um and also really playing up like accessories. I think 208 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: that's a really fun way to still express yourself through 209 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: fashion without you know, completely changing your wardrobe. Because I 210 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: know a lot of people don't want to invest in 211 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 1: a whole new set of clothes if they're thinking this 212 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:21,320 Speaker 1: is just a temporary situation for me. So I think, um, 213 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 1: like have fun to like splurge on like a little 214 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,679 Speaker 1: bag or some cute shoes, or like do things that 215 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: are gonna stay with you through the weight loss, weight gain, 216 00:11:31,360 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: whatever it is, and so you don't feel like you're 217 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: stuck in this box of like, oh, I have all 218 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,439 Speaker 1: these great clothes and now I can't wear them. Um. 219 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: And I have to say, for me, it was helpful. 220 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:41,560 Speaker 1: I don't know what you ladies did, but like I 221 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 1: put my jeans and stuff away, like I just put 222 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: them over the bed. I was like, I don't want 223 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: to see them. I don't want to see whatever size 224 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: I was before, Like I don't want to put that 225 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 1: pressure on myself, like, oh, I'm not going to get 226 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 1: back in those jeans. And I did the same thing after. 227 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 1: I didn't pull them out for a while. But I've 228 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: guys like one actually said to me, my friend Samantha Shelton, 229 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: who's amazing and actually does the song for this podcast. 230 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 1: She has two kids, and she said, look, you hear 231 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,360 Speaker 1: those stories about oh my god, I started breastfeeding and 232 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I'm thinner than I've ever been. 233 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: Not my story mine. Let's just dispel that. It was 234 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: the last few pounds until after I stopped breastfeeding. That's 235 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: also the case with some people's bodies. And for me, 236 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: she said to me, look, it takes a year to 237 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: put it on, it's going to take at least a 238 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: year to take it off. And that was exactly you know, 239 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,839 Speaker 1: here I was in Hollywood on television being like, oh 240 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 1: my god, you look at these shape magazines. Guys. I'm 241 00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 1: literally sitting here looking at covers of celebrities who got 242 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 1: their body back and I don't know whatever, unbelievable and 243 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: and go yeah, yea yea whatever it is. But for me, 244 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: like I consider myself a super normal person. I it 245 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: took me a year to um get back to the 246 00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: way I was, but my body is still different, forever changed. 247 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: Like where I used to hold weight is different from 248 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 1: where I am now. Like I used to be a 249 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: super acid thighs girl, which I still am. But it's 250 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: weird that doesn't bother me as much as my stomach anymore. 251 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 1: So maybe that's a win. You know, Rachel Pally, who's 252 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 1: a friend of all of ours, and I remember saying 253 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: that to me right after I she's an amazing fashion 254 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: designer by the way, guys, and she but she said 255 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: to me, she was like, everything is just going to 256 00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: fall differently. And it's true, it's like same thing like 257 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,040 Speaker 1: areas of where I was like, oh, I never had 258 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,640 Speaker 1: a problem. I like this. It just segs different just 259 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,880 Speaker 1: and it's like, I'm not going to get it fixed. Hey, 260 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have another baby and be I mean, can't 261 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,840 Speaker 1: I use just like a lotion for that? You know, 262 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: there's got to be a lotion for everything. Kind of 263 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: amazing though, I mean, you created these humans and then 264 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 1: this is and it's just part of life. And this 265 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:53,480 Speaker 1: is why Nicole is an amazing stylist.

It's like your armor. Just 287 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,560 Speaker 1: protect yourself in the areas that you don't like and 288 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:58,520 Speaker 1: you can still look cool as you feel good. Oh 289 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 1: I felt better than I guys that had the big 290 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: puffy So in this weird in between where maternity clothes 291 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,080 Speaker 1: don't fit anymore, but you're not really ready to go 292 00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: back to your old clothes. Do you, Nicole, recommend that 293 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: new moms go on shopping spree for all new clothes. 294 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 1: I know we sort of touched on this as far 295 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 1: as like, um, I mean, I would accessories is kind 296 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 1: of a good option so that you don't buy like 297 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: a whole new wardrobe because again, like my body is 298 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: different than it was before and I'll continue to change. 299 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: So I think, Um, if you want to do the 300 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: whole spree thing, maybe you spree on the accessories. But 301 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 1: I would say I think it's really important post postpartum 302 00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: that you invest in good shapewear. We did a lot 303 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,479 Speaker 1: of We did a lot of that, and what is shapewear? 304 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 1: Please teach?

Yes, Amy, you know about this right? This 310 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: is kind of in fitness. Let's just take a quick 311 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: tangent for people. I'll try it out more than I did. Actually, 312 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: what was that like a belly? Bandit there, there's yeah, 313 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 1: there's many different ones in the market. Um I found 314 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,680 Speaker 1: this woman and um, I'll have to figure out exactly 315 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 1: because she was in the UK, so it's not an 316 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: easy thing to get. But they're basically just like a 317 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: very thin muslin wrap and someone just wraps you every day. 318 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: This is really big in Chinese culture. There's a stook 319 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: called the First forty Days for you guys who are 320 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: listening who are pregnant. Um, it's really weird, but after 321 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: you have the baby, you can feel your organs like 322 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 1: swimming around inside your stomach because there's all this extra 323 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 1: sort of space for at least the first month or whatever. 324 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:52,080 Speaker 1: So there's these wraps that really, um, they feel more compact. 325 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: I wore my my belly bandit like at night and 326 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: in the day as much as I could, because literally, 327 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:58,400 Speaker 1: if I would switch sides when I was sleeping after 328 00:16:58,440 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: the baby had come out, I could feel like all 329 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 1: organs moved from one side to the other and it 330 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 1: was just like I didn't feel supported. Um, And so 331 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: it was nice to have spanks when we would do 332 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: these fittings to like keep myself feeling kind of tintained. Yeah, 333 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: and it does and it also helps your clothing lay 334 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: better on. Yeah, it's nice and smooth and there's so many, 335 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,719 Speaker 1: so many amazing options that you love that you know 336 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:26,400 Speaker 1: where on the daily and that'll just make you feel better. Um, 337 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 1: So we talked about the arm thing for me, covering 338 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: up or hiding problem areas that you might like hate 339 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: about yourself. Um, what are some of the new ways 340 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: to dress for this body that might show off or 341 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: enhance new curves. Well, like we were talking earlier about 342 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 1: the boobs, you know, so that let's play those at 343 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,439 Speaker 1: ladies because every you know, every man's into that. All 344 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:50,160 Speaker 1: of a sudden you're in Phoenix and it's great and well, 345 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,000 Speaker 1: the wrap dresses we didn't we wrap dresses are my 346 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: middle names. Also, like knowing what bras like, hold them right, 347 00:17:57,359 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: because those nursing bras are not very flat. Well, you 348 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: can't wear the under so usually when you're nursing, they 349 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 1: want them to be soft cups. So yeah, you guys, 350 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,199 Speaker 1: underwire is not recommended for nursing because supposedly then they 351 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,439 Speaker 1: could stop. If you're going to go out or you 352 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: have special obviously you can wear it. But you know, yeah, right, 353 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:17,560 Speaker 1: you can wear an underwire for like a dinner out 354 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 1: if you want to feel sexy for like five seconds. Um, 355 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: but they're pretty up there. I mean when you're nursing, 356 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,639 Speaker 1: they get pretty hard, so they're like amazing. I used 357 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: to do fittings with Lynn Palo, who is our stylist 358 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: on She was our head wardrobe person on Scandal, and 359 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: she we would do fittings and she would be like, well, 360 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 1: have you just nursed or you haven't nurse? Like what 361 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 1: size boobs am I changing? With the whole size difference, 362 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: I would go from D to double D in a 363 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: matter of fifteen. And then me personally, I'd spent my 364 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:46,919 Speaker 1: life with really small boobs. I loved big bag of 365 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: T shirts, and suddenly when I wore a big bag 366 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: of T shirt with those boobs, I didn't know what 367 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: I couldn't. It wasn't a you have to be more fitted, 368 00:18:55,560 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: that's a tip. But then I was the same with pregnancy. 369 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 1: I think, um, when you wear when you are, you know, 370 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: maybe a little bit bigger than your normal size, either 371 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: breasts or waste. Um, people tend to want to wear bigger, 372 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 1: baggy clothes, but it actually makes you look bigger, bigger. 373 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 1: So I think if you can wear more fitted, um 374 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: and just wear more form fitted. Yeah, and we're proper undergarments. 375 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: That's the way. Problem. See I was then I was 376 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: uncomfortable with my stomach, so I didn't want to wear 377 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: like a fitted so fun. But I guess maybe like 378 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: a high like a higher wasted a line skirt. We 379 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 1: did a listen to the high waist is the way 380 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: a high waisted skirt. And also like high waisted stretchy 381 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 1: jeans were like really helpful to me because I have 382 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,239 Speaker 1: a pooch from where the baby was. And I just 383 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,919 Speaker 1: talked into shap Jane with like a blouse you know 384 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 1: that has a lower boob revealing thing and cover my 385 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: arms body. Oh yeah, we did a lot of body 386 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:57,600 Speaker 1: so that kind of chains. Also. I don't know about you, 387 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 1: you probably are fine with it. I can't wear heels anymore. No, no, yeah, 388 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: but like even like how to go to something last weekend, 389 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: I couldn't my feet. I have been hurting for two days. 390 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 1: What do I do? Well, you can ice them, supposedly. 391 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: I just found out some celebrity that will written me 392 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: nameless that I know put CBD like weed all over 393 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: their feet before and they list their feet like super 394 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,800 Speaker 1: high with marijuana.

You can put your shoes in 407 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:11,119 Speaker 1: the freezer before you wear them, and so when you 408 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: put them on, they wore them up to your foot 409 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,880 Speaker 1: and they stretch to put them in before you go out. 410 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 1: What if women do that have like shoes that they 411 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: don't fit in after you can donate or sell them 412 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,640 Speaker 1: and then with the money go by new ones. That's right. 413 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 1: What if some of them were hand me downs from you? 414 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: They've got their um for a lot of women. So 415 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 1: much of our identity is like literally wrapped up in 416 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 1: the clothes we wear, in our individual style. How hard 417 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: is it to change your individual style or even just 418 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: adapt to this new body.

And also there 425 00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: is something to be said for me, like any cool 426 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: clothing that can go in the washing machine. I don't 427 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,400 Speaker 1: have another drag layer, I mean, and or to care 428 00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 1: about something that's really like like super expensive hand I mean, 429 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 1: come on, that's like that's the next level.

Did you just start dieting, hitting 446 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 1: the gym like immediately after the baby was getting back 447 00:23:22,320 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 1: to pre baby shape like your immediate concern. No, because 448 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: I was also breast fading, and so I was like, 449 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: I need the right nutrition to make milk to feed 450 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,840 Speaker 1: the person I just grew inside of me. And I 451 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:38,959 Speaker 1: also I really was trying to just focus on my 452 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 1: health and acceptance of knowing that this is my body now, 453 00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 1: it's not forever. Like we talked about it's going to 454 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: change and that I had the same thing. I knew 455 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:49,439 Speaker 1: it was going to take about a year, and so 456 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 1: I put no pressure on myself. I wasn't like, oh, 457 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,119 Speaker 1: you can't eat this or that that, but I focused 458 00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,680 Speaker 1: on health because I wanted to make the best milk 459 00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: I could for my child. That being said, I dried 460 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 1: up at eight months after all the work I had 461 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 1: put into it, and that was my body just saying, 462 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: you know, we're done. And it was after that that 463 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 1: the rest of the way it kind of came off naturally. 464 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: But you know, I didn't over exercise like crazy. I 465 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 1: mean I also I went back to work right away, 466 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 1: but I didn't you know, I wasn't on camera like 467 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,160 Speaker 1: you were.

I enjoyed 501 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: working out more in my pregnancy than I ever have 502 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: in my whole life, like, let's I've never been someone 503 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 1: who like loves working out, and well, it was like 504 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 1: I felt like I was. The challenge I had set 505 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 1: for myself was that I really wanted to push a 506 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: baby out of my vagina right, and I really wanted 507 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: to with drugs. But I really wanted to run that 508 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 1: marathon and I wanted to be in the physical shape 509 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: where I felt connected to him physically. And I took 510 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: a prenatal yoga class topped by Rebecca Bennonati, who was 511 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 1: my duel and she was on our duel episode. I 512 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,359 Speaker 1: took a prenatal yoga class twice a week. It wasn't 513 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,920 Speaker 1: about huffing and puffing and burning calories. It was about 514 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 1: spending an hour with this like new body and like yes, 515 00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: we did some push ups on our knees with our 516 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 1: bellies sitting the ground, and we did some like squats 517 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: up against the wall, pretending they were contractions that were like, 518 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 1: you know, prepping ourselves for that sort of like I'm 519 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 1: going to run a twenty six point two is not 520 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: how long it is marathon. I'm gonna do this marathon 521 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna really be in the physical shape. So 522 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,960 Speaker 1: I just hiked a lot. Like you said, I like 523 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,240 Speaker 1: him being in nature with my pregnancy. I liked having 524 00:27:06,440 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: prenatal yoga. I did really like pilates from my arms. 525 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,480 Speaker 1: But what was it was the first time I ever 526 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: worked out and I was like, oh, I'm working out 527 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:18,360 Speaker 1: in gaining weight, like and it was like I just 528 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: really enjoyed it as it's because it wasn't a goal, 529 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 1: and it wasn't a goal of like I'm doing this 530 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 1: many reps so that I can look amazing in this 531 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: fucking outfit, and like that's the different train yourself and 532 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 1: you're doing it for him. That's what it felt like 533 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,600 Speaker 1: the most umtating Do you guys think I mean I 534 00:27:37,640 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 1: think so, But do you think that a lot of 535 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:45,400 Speaker 1: the pressure comes from media and pop culture versus like friends, families, partners, 536 00:27:45,400 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: Like I think people are um feel more pressure from strangers. 537 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,199 Speaker 1: So I would say social media when you're just like 538 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 1: flipping through and you're like seeing everybody in their bikinis 539 00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 1: with their babies. You know, but that's but you're friends 540 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: and the people if you sit and you talk with 541 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 1: your friends, you know, and no one's pressuring you. Two 542 00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,480 Speaker 1: their supporting and loving your family taking care of you. 543 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 1: We have to surround yourself with people that are that 544 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,920 Speaker 1: are there to support. I know you Nicole on Amy. 545 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 1: You guys both have really awesome mom cruise that have 546 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: been through pregnancies, multiple pregnancies together. Um And I just, 547 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 1: first of all, I hope Katie's crib is any of 548 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 1: that for any of you guys out there who don't 549 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: have one A but B, I just I really can't 550 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 1: encourage that enough to be around women who have like 551 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,359 Speaker 1: a who can support you through it, because it's it 552 00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: is hard to understand and it's like, um and I 553 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: think it can be competitive if you're by yourself surfing 554 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: Facebook or Instagram or these magazines where celebrities look like 555 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: amazing in two seconds, because it's just like not real 556 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: at all. Um Amy is a personal trainer and in 557 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 1: your own life, can you speak um to terms of 558 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: like balancing that legit desire to take control over your body, 559 00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: to feel like you're yourself again versus um versus the 560 00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:05,240 Speaker 1: outside pressures like who are you doing this for? If 561 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: that makes sense? Well, I mean I personally with my 562 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 1: working out too, I feel and I mean it's it's 563 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: proven that you get endorphins from working out, and when 564 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: you it's the same thing with that you're spending this 565 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: time after you have a baby to bond with your child, 566 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,239 Speaker 1: create a good example for them and for yourself. And 567 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: I I knew that I wanted to approach my my 568 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 1: life and my body in a really self loving way 569 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: for my daughter and for my friends and my husband. 570 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: Everyone just set an example. And when I work out, 571 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,360 Speaker 1: it's to feel good. So you know, you do some 572 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 1: cardio or something and it just you get those endorphins. 573 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: It feels good. The other morning, I was working out 574 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 1: with the client. I was so tired. I got there. 575 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: Within five minutes of us working out, I felt like 576 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 1: so incredible. So if you switch, I think it's the pressure. 577 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: If you for just for a walk, it's like literally 578 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 1: a couple of minutes and you feel better. And if 579 00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: you switch that pressure of I have to work out 580 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:11,360 Speaker 1: to be a certain size or this, but you say 581 00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: I want to work out because I want to feel good, 582 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: then before you know what, you're not doing it for 583 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: a certain way. You're doing it because it feels amazing. 584 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: And it doesn't have to be ninety hours on the 585 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 1: elliptical where you're dripping sweat and your bright red and 586 00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 1: your muscles are sore. The next day it could be 587 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: five minutes of jumping Jack's you know, or let's talk 588 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: about this. Hold on a second, jumping with your people, 589 00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: your pepe, because this is like a real thing, guys, 590 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: Like I thought I was all fine.

And I'm not gonna lie. The first 604 00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,280 Speaker 1: couple of weeks of the Broadway show, I wore depends 605 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: because I just didn't know and if it happened on stage, 606 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 1: I couldn't get off, so and I know I'm not 607 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: gonna again remain nameless, but I know, Amy, you have 608 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:37,240 Speaker 1: taught classes where trampoline classes where new moms are peeing 609 00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: down the leg and leaking florest milk, all kinds of things, 610 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: and I mean, fluids are just a whole thing. And 611 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,760 Speaker 1: what do you like is their workouts. I mean, obviously 612 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: you can encourage the keygels in the pilates and you know, 613 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 1: getting your abs, but some people also after I mean 614 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: it depends, like depends on how it depends, yeah and 615 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: how or I mean, we know moms whose births were 616 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 1: really complicated and they're process might take longer than women 617 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: like I had one inside terror and within you know, 618 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 1: six weeks. We talked about that last episode. I was 619 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,440 Speaker 1: like ready to have sex again, ready to like whatever, 620 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: never in my life, but everyone stiff, you know what 621 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 1: I mean, I was horrified. Okay, sorry, Adams, I'm sorry, 622 00:32:27,640 --> 00:32:30,239 Speaker 1: but you know, but I do think you know, and 623 00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:33,760 Speaker 1: some people also get diastesis and they're they're abs split 624 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: down the middle. So tell us what that? Oh yeah, 625 00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:41,120 Speaker 1: you're the surgery, right, So some women during pregnancy what 626 00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 1: happens there got the bilical hernia. So I didn't even 627 00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 1: know that I had that until he went in and 628 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 1: then he saw it and he stitched it up for me. 629 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: But my my belly button was sticking out and it 630 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: was really sensitive, like I couldn't work out after my 631 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 1: third which is pretty common. Did you have the umbilical 632 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: what's it called umbilical ernia? Did you have that only 633 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 1: in the third babies? I remember that. And while they 634 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: were in there fixing that, they noticed that your abs 635 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: had split. So that is a thing that also happens. 636 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: It's just like genetic It doesn't mean you got too 637 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: big or too small. It's random, right or I mean, 638 00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 1: it can happen if you Sometimes people over do more 639 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: ab work or stuff when they are pregnant that you know. 640 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean surgery is kind of the only 641 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 1: way to fix it. I remember Kelly Rippa had it. 642 00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: She was very public about I remember listening to her. 643 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: She had to leave her show to go with that surgery. 644 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: But it's basically when you're abs split down the middle 645 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 1: and they separate. So so that being that all, going 646 00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: back to that question about the jumping pelvic floor, is 647 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: also you know, every pregnancy and birth is different and complicated, 648 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 1: and some people like don't like it all up, but 649 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, doing pilates and cable exercises can very very much. 650 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 1: Two pairs of underwear and wearing depends now the two 651 00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 1: pairs of underwear, and I never have thought about that, 652 00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 1: like a freaking until you can just wear a Maxi pad, 653 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: but you don't rubbing down there. And that's the problem 654 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: when you guys are so focused. This is my big thing. 655 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 1: If I'm so focused on the baby for me and 656 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:18,799 Speaker 1: I'm you know what it is. It's the exhaustion. And 657 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,120 Speaker 1: I think, well, I know, Nicole, you can definitely relate 658 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,000 Speaker 1: to you. Three.

But when the crazy thing is 872 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,839 Speaker 1: and like it almost makes me so emotional, say, this's 873 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 1: like we're doing the most incredible job. You're growing a person, 874 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 1: and look at all the pressure in our culture of like, 875 00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 1: oh you have to get back to this or don't 876 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: eat this, and it's like you are creating life and 877 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 1: this has been happening forever in the history of the world. 878 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: And women's bodies are made to do this.
