Managing Iron in Pregnancy & The Ins & Outs of The Glucose Tolerance Test with Solaine Douglas

In this week's episode of Holistic Health Chats I interviewed as a guest speaker on The Nuture Hub podcast, with Shari Lyon and Nicola Laye. Shari and I met at one of her Gold Coast Hypnobirthing courses that I attended with my partner earlier this year and we got chatting about all things OGTT and decided to record an episode about it. In this episode we cover the mis-management of iron that is so common in pregnancy, how you can be pro-active about avoiding an infusion and we delve into all things the oh-so controversial glucose tolerance test. Of course if goes without saying that if you feel the OGTT is the best option for you that’s wonderful, but what I hope this episode shows you is you nearly always have more options – sometimes you just have to know how to ask for them.
