I agree, they seem very much like a "ting-yang" couple who work really well togetherI think Dan seems to balance Hannah out really well.

She prob will tbh. I have an inflammatory condition too (joint related rather than gut) and I was on Fragmin by the halfway point, had to be on it until 6 weeks postpartum, so around 6 months totalI really hope she doesn’t have to have the blood thinners for as long as they suggested - I had to have them for a few weeks after giving birth and they’re just horrible. Had to get my partner to inject me cos there was no way I could do it to myself!
Yeah we did stomach too - not funShe prob will tbh. I have an inflammatory condition too (joint related rather than gut) and I was on Fragmin by the halfway point, had to be on it until 6 weeks postpartum, so around 6 months totalActually found it easy at first but after a few weeks you run out of untraumatised flesh and it gets harder and harder. I went from almost enjoying the ritual to being extremely desperate to see the back of it.
Fwiw I injected into my stomach. I found it wayyyy less painful than doing it into a thigh.
I agree. Since I found some sex toy reviewers and BDSM educators on YT, Hannah just seems a bit entry level. Not a bad thing, I think her videos are quite teen-friendly and that's great.So in generally I quite like Hannah, I like her videos and her second channel and I am of course super happy for her that she is pregnant. That being said…
Does anyone feel like the things she talks about are … not that groundbreaking? Perhaps I just read a tiny bit more about sex and sexuality than some people, but given her vanilla cis white straight perspective (no shade, I’m cis white and straight-passing) - I just haven’t watched a video of hers where I’m like ‘wow, I didn’t know that’.
That’s a good point; maybe I should listen again. Only listened to the earliest ones and I think she was still finding her feet as an interviewer.I agree with whats being said about it being basic, but as a teenager she pretty much was my sex education (alongside laci green) and i think there is most definitely a market for her videos. Its entry level but I think that's generally a good thing. I think her podcasts are a bit more in depth
yeah same I wish I had had someone like her when I was a teenager, we were never given any advice in school; even now I am mid 30s and I am shocked at my lack of knowledge about some women's health issues.That’s a good point; maybe I should listen again.

(Sadly I’m a bit too old to have had her videos in my teens. Would have been really helpful though, especially the consent focused content!)
Honestly haven't viewed any of Laci's videos in years. When I was like 15 I lived for her and Hannah's uploads (that was 7 years ago now). I think I stopped watching her before she even got with the guy she's seeing now. I stuck with Hannah because I felt like she was more pleasant to watch.yeah same I wish I had had someone like her when I was a teenager, we were never given any advice in school; even now I am mid 30s and I am shocked at my lack of knowledge about some women's health issues.
OT but I don't think she has a thread, I haven't followed Laci Green in ages since she started dating some kind of right wing nutcase, is she still with him?
I think she's very entry level, mainstream sex-positive. Probably good for like 13-18 year olds to watch and learn about things but anyone above that age who is experienced in sexual relationships of any kind, not really good content. She's like The One Show of sex YouTubers.So in generally I quite like Hannah, I like her videos and her second channel and I am of course super happy for her that she is pregnant. That being said…

Laci got involved in the alt-right somehow and it kinda derailed everything. They all had a hate-boner for her and then started a "dialogue" together and then she fell off the radar.Honestly haven't viewed any of Laci's videos in years.

I've thought this too, like her takes are almost a bit cliche at times, and I wish she'd delve a little deeper. Then again I can see how this content is useful to people (and teens), and maybe it's best she doesn't speak too much about things outside of her expertise.So in generally I quite like Hannah, I like her videos and her second channel and I am of course super happy for her that she is pregnant.

I agree with you. I also recently listened to her Q&A with her husband about pregnancy and parenting, and I was really surprised how u prepared they both came across. I think he came across really badly tbh I was surprised she published it; but even Hannah seemed to be lacking a lot of basic knowledge. For context I’m 27 and have no children and know quite a bit more.I've thought this too, like her takes are almost a bit cliche at times, and I wish she'd delve a little deeper.

One thing I thought was strange, that I didn't want to comment about here while she was still trying to conceive because that didn't seem right, is how little she knew about ovulation. In that hormone diaries video she did about tracking her ovulation for the first time she had no idea how to use those tests, and apparently was not that educated on how ovulation works/how to track your cycle. And it seemed odd for someone who calls themselves a sex educator to not know such basic stuff about the menstrual cycle and fertility. There's plenty of youtube videos, even, that explain ovulation tracking very clearly. That also made it seem like her knowledge is a bit surface level.
I also really like the trimester format, I think it gives a really clear overview of what happens at each stage rather than fluff filled weekly updates that some people do.I just watched her second trimester update and actually enjoyed it. She is so excited for this baby and I like how she isn't shying away from the less sunshine and rainbows elements of pregnancy. A lot of influencers show only the buying cute clothes and scan pictures and I like how she was discussing c section options and hip pain etc. its important for women to see all sides of pregnancy not just the cute bits
