What Every Family Should Know About Holistic Pregnancy, Birth, and Postpartum with Dr. Matt Angove
How do you have a holistic preconception, pregnancy and postpartum experience?
In this conversation with naturopathic physician and father of eight, Dr. Matt Angove of Dr. Wholeness, we explore a holistic approach to pregnancy from preconception to postpartum.
Dr. Matt is known for his expertise on iron and ferritin levels in pregnancy, and in this episode, we expand beyond that topic to discuss the full journey of preparing for, experiencing, and recovering from birth with health and wholeness in mind.
We talk about:
The emotional and physical components of preconception and fertility
How mindset and stress influence conception and pregnancy
Nutrients and habits that make the biggest impact before and during pregnancy
What Dr. Matt wishes more moms knew about pregnancy and birth
Common postpartum blind spots (and how to support healing and recovery)
The role of partners in a truly holistic approach to birth and parenthood
Dr. Matt shares his wisdom as both a doctor and a dad of eight (including six home births and twins born at home!) — giving practical, grounded insights for families who want to feel empowered through the entire journey.
