Dr. Plenty, is a double board-certified OB/GYN and high risk pregnancy expert. She's brilliant, well-researched with a great bedside manor.... but she is a little feisty and will "tell it like it is". Growing tired of seeing complications in pregnancy that could have been prevented, she wanted a way to help women empower themselves through knowledge so they can advocate for themselves. This quest to educate women birthed this podcast.Copyright 2026 衛生・健康的な生活

  • Small Baby, Big Questions

    Small Baby, Big Questions
    2026/10/15
    Your baby is measuring small. Did you do something wrong? Why are there suddenly more appointments—and why would your doctor recommend delivery before your due date? On this episode of Pregnancy Pearls, Dr. Nicole Plenty breaks down fetal growth restriction, what ultrasound percentiles really mean, and how doctors evaluate a baby’s growth. She explains the role of the placenta, what Doppler studies and other monitoring tests check, and why reassuring results still require ongoing follow-up. Dr. Plenty also answers common questions about protein shakes, bed rest, and whether a small baby automatically means a C-section. A listener’s question brings it all together, exploring the worry and confusion that can come with a growth restriction diagnosis. Today’s pregnancy pearl: A small baby needs a closer look, not parental blame. The goal is a healthy baby, not a particular percentile. Listen for a clearer understanding of your care plan and the questions to ask your healthcare team. Find more shows like this on the Mean Ole Lion app.

  • When in Doubt, Reach Out: Pregnancy Warning Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore

    When in Doubt, Reach Out: Pregnancy Warning Signs You Shouldn’t Ignore
    2026/10/08
    Is this a normal pregnancy symptom—or should you call your doctor? You don’t have to figure it out alone. On this episode of Pregnancy Pearls, Dr. Nicole Plenty discusses how to recognize symptoms that deserve a call to your OB-GYN, an in-person evaluation, or emergency help. From bleeding and possible water breaking to contractions and changes in your baby’s movement, she explains why reaching out is part of protecting your health—not overreacting. Dr. Plenty also covers concerning headaches, vision changes, chest pain, difficulty breathing, fever, and other warning signs. She reminds listeners that some complications can develop after delivery, making it important to stay attentive to changes during the postpartum period, too. In this episode’s listener question, a patient at 32 weeks describes noticeably weaker and less frequent fetal movement but worries about the cost of a hospital visit. Dr. Plenty addresses those concerns while explaining why a few movements after a snack cannot replace an assessment when something feels different. Today’s pearl: You are not wasting anyone’s time by reporting a pregnancy warning symptom. Know your baby’s usual movement, keep your care team’s after-hours number handy, and follow the instructions specific to your pregnancy. Have a question or pregnancy experience to share?

  • The Interpregnancy Period

    The Interpregnancy Period
    2026/10/01
    Thinking about another baby? The calendar is only one part of the conversation. On this episode of Pregnancy Pearls, Dr. Nicole Plenty explores what deserves attention before your next pregnancy—from physical recovery and previous pregnancy complications to fertility concerns, emotional readiness, and the support you’ll need. Dr. Plenty breaks down pregnancy spacing and explains why feeling recovered doesn’t always mean your body is ready to begin again. She discusses how experiences such as preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, preterm birth, and a C-section can inform your next pregnancy plan, along with the importance of reviewing medications, managing existing health conditions, and scheduling a preconception consultation. In this week’s listener case, a 37-year-old mother wants to grow her family after a complicated delivery but worries that waiting could affect her fertility. Dr. Plenty walks through the medical and emotional questions that deserve attention before trying again, including lingering anxiety and birth trauma. Today’s Pregnancy Pearl: Don’t just ask, “How long should I wait?” Ask what needs to be healthier, treated, healed, or planned before your next pregnancy. You deserve to move forward informed, supported, and with a plan. Have a pregnancy question or experience to share? Email pregnancypearls@gmail.com.
