The Bacteria of Birth

ARMOR on the Air

TW: Childbirth, painful medical procedures, graphic descriptions

C-sections vs vaginal births, baby microbiomes, vaginal health, and some basic gynecology... Today we’re talking about baby’s first bacteria! Though, fair warning, pregnancy and childbirth are INTENSE processes, whether from the perspective of the person giving birth, the baby that’s born, or the bacteria who are present for all of it.

ARMOR on the Air is a student-led podcast based out of the University of Colorado Boulder. We discuss the antimicrobial resistance crisis and what we as members of the public can do to help! Join our hosts, graduate student Dana and Danish pharmacist Karoline, as we learn more about superbugs and how to stop them!

ARMOR is an outreach organization at CU Boulder. We promote safe and responsible use of antibiotics, support research into new antibiotics, and encourage the public to take steps in their daily lives to limit development of more superbugs!
