Made for Minnesota Moms is a podcast for pregnant, postpartum, and new moms in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and across Minnesota who want real, local answers instead of generic internet advice. Hosted by Megan Norman, a Minneapolis newborn and family photographer and mom of three, every episode helps you find trusted local providers, feel more prepared for birth and postpartum, and hear from other Minnesota moms who have been there. Every other week we answer the questions moms actually ask: - Where do I find a good doula, chiropractor, or lactation consultant in the Twin Cities? - What does postpartum recovery really look like, and when should I ask for help? - How do I take care of my pelvic floor, mental health, and body after baby? - What Minnesota resources, businesses, and providers actually support new moms? Unlike national mom podcasts, every guest is a Minnesota expert or local mom, so the resources, recommendations, and stories you hear are ones you can actually use here. From naturopathic doctors and prenatal chiropractors to doulas, lactation consultants, pelvic floor therapists, and postpartum mental health pros, this is the local mom network in podcast form. Press play on any episode and start building your real life Minnesota mom toolkit. New episodes added regularly.
