3 Ways You Can Become Sterile

January 31, 2011 By Chelsea

Hmmm… I wonder if it’s having 3 kids and two newborns that had me thinking about this topic. All kidding aside, my hubby has had a vasectomy AND I have had my tubes tied (you can never be too sure… kidding… kind of…), but I was curious about other options as well. Breezy Mama turned to a favorite Go-To expert, Dr. Rothbart (who was famously flown to Namibia to deliver Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter Shiloh) to get the pros and cons of the different procedures when you are absolutely, 100% finished having children (ahem).

1. Tubes Tied

a. I recently had my tubes tied, but was told to use birth control for the first 3 months because I could STILL get pregnant. How is this possible?

March 9, 2010 By Chelsea


I’m a kill two birds with one stone kinda gal. If I can shop for my kids (or for gifts) AND give a little bit of love to a worthy cause, I’m in! After searching through countless kid’s clothing companies (size 3 months to 12 years) that donate a percentage of proceeds to a charity, I narrowed down my favs so your kids can be stylish while stylishly giving back.

The Latest on Birth Control

July 13, 2009 By Chelsea

31eEkcXvNkL._SL500_AA280_ From why the IUD is back and more popular than ever to questions on whether it’s really safe for a woman to miss her period (oh, and WHEN IS THE MAN PILL coming out) and so much more, Breezy Mama’s favorite go-to OB Dr. Rothbart answered our questions.

I have heard of many OBs recommending IUDs now. Why is this? What’s changed from our mother’s generation when there were lots of problems?

We have come a long way from our mother’s generation of IUDs. IUDs got a bad rap in the 70’s and 80’s for causing [Read more…] about The Latest on Birth Control

The Pros and Cons of VBAC

April 27, 2009 By Chelsea

prego Breezy’s favorite go-to OB Dr. Rothbart answered our questions on Vaginal Birth After Cesarean (VBAC).

What are the risks for both mom and baby in doing a vbac?
The risks for a vbac exist because of concern over the uterine scar (from the previous c-section) rupturing, or tearing open. This presents risks to the mom because of bleeding, and potential for the rupture site to be unrepairable thus leading to an emergency hysterectomy. The risks to the baby arise from the compromise to the placenta that exists if the uterus does rupture. This cuts off oxygen supply to the baby and emergent surgical delivery is necessary.

Why are vbacs more popular in some states than others?
It really just depends on [Read more…] about The Pros and Cons of VBAC

First the tsunami of round the clock feedings, sleepless nights and endless diaper changes and then somewhere through the newborn storm comes the realization that not everything on your body went back into pre-pregnancy position. In fact for some moms, a little surgical restoration may be required. Dr. Rothbart – who was famously flown to Namibia to deliver Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s baby Shiloh in 2006 – gave Breezy the scoop on vaginal repair.

Do all OBs perform Vaginal Rejuvenation?

Not all OBs perform vaginal rejuvenation. Some have special training to do so, and some, while qualified, simply choose not to for various reasons.
