Dear Dr. Tracy ·

2023/02/16

We all pee ourselves a little after having kids and it’s totally normal, right? Sure, it’s common… but it actually isn’t normal. Chances are your OB didn’t sit you down at your first prenatal appointment to discuss the importance of keeping your pelvic floor healthy and there’s an even higher chance they never talked to you about how urinary incontinence, at any level, isn’t normal after baby. So what is normal and how do we take care of our pelvic floor? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Sara

2023/02/09

Have you ever found yourself suddenly the default parent, with your partner nowhere in sight and you’re left to tend to the baby? Or maybe you find yourself asking your partner to watch the baby and if now is a good time to shower. I’ll never forget the time I couldn’t find my husband one sunny Saturday. Left to do our baby’s bottle and nap time, I was enraged. When did I become the default parent and why? When I saw Renee’s TikTok about her husband making pancakes, I knew this was a conversation we

Dear Dr. Tracy ·

2023/02/02

It's time for another Q&A episode where I answer your questions! In today's episode, I answer a community member's question about sex after baby. Life changes so much after baby is born and the pressure to have intercourse can feel overwhelming. Breastfeeding, hormone fluctuation, sleep deprivation, birth trauma, feeling touched out, recovering from birth. Is sex off the table? Absolutely not, but the pressure to have it should be. There is no right amount of sex to have and during this postpartum

You’ve prepared everything for baby’s arrival: ✅Birth plan ✅Hospital bag ✅Freezer meals ✅Set up nursery ✅Install car seat You’ve done the research and checked your list twice. But did you prepare your relationship? Many of us have thought that a baby will bring us closer as a couple. Perhaps you haven’t had any noteworthy struggles in your relationship so far and think nothing will change. Or perhaps things have changed a lot since then. As a mother and a clinician, the thing that strikes me the

Why Do We Feel Like Roommates?

Dear Dr. Tracy ·

2023/01/19

When we first fall in love, there’s an attraction and excitement that sets the person apart from anyone else in the world - yet over time, we shift away from this. When I polled the community 67% of you said you felt like your partner’s roommate rather than their lover. Conversations feel transactional. There’s a loss of physical connection. The spark feels lost. But why does this happen? What can we do about it? In this episode, I discuss: What the honeymoon phase is [0:30] Reasons why you might

Dear Dr. Tracy ·

2023/01/05

In today’s episode, I talk about 7 things your parents didn’t teach you about relationships, and the things we should tell our children. I polled the community several months ago about this topic and your responses were so cool to see. It’s fascinating to see how so many of us didn’t learn how to show up in relationships - things like how to build healthy communication and what a healthy relationship looks like.

2022/12/29

Let me set the scene. The tree is up. The lights are on. The decorations are hanging. And I am envisioning a picture perfect moment… the kids smiling in their Christmas outfits while we all smile for that Instagram-worthy photo. Cue. Reality. My kids are now 5 and 7. Hot chocolate ends up on their clothes more than in their bellies. I haven’t sat down all day. And this is nothing like what I envisioned. And I pause. I take a breath. I welcome my perfectionistic voice and say, “Oh, hey there, I was

Social media has recently become a place for mothers to connect and share their real, raw truths, but it hasn’t always been this way. For many, we open up our feeds and are flooded with highlight reels of the lives of others. Perfectly curated holiday pictures, clean homes, and women glowing - it can seem as though every other mother has their life together.
