Millennial women's guide to everything pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
Hi! I’m Nazli Senyuva, a health and science journalist, women’s health scholar, PhD candidate and lecturer at USC. Women's health has been a true passion of mine and a topic I have studied and researched for many years.
While exploring first time pregnant moms’ decision making process for my PhD dissertation, I became more and more fascinated by everything I was finding out about my own body, and about the journey of pregnancy. I found myself asking: how come a 28-year-old daughter of two surgeons, who is about to get her 3rd academic degree knows NOTHING when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth? How come we are left in the dark when it comes to such an important period our bodies go through?
This is why I launched The Millennial Bump. As millennial women we have to be more educated about birth BEFORE we get pregnant. Trust me, there is a lot to digest, and you might not have enough time, patience, or energy to equip yourself with the necessary knowledge when you get pregnant.
You can be a woman who has never given birth before, you can be pregnant now, or maybe you’re already a mom. You may not identify as a woman yet still be going through this journey. You can be a partner, a friend, a support person. No matter where you are in the journey of childbirth, this platform is for you. We will learn, explore, and ask questions together, hear from experts and one another. So when the time comes, we will make fully informed decisions for ourselves and our babies, and won’t fear the “unknown”.
