Creating a family is a life transforming event that’s a lot harder than the culturally-generated marketing suggests.
Relying on the glossy media depictions of this transition leaves many women feeling like they are broken or failing when their actual experience doesn’t match their expectation.
I tripped over every step of this process: getting pregnant, being pregnant and giving birth on my way to having two kids.
This podcast showcases the really, really of people’s experiences:
* what they didn’t expect when they were expecting
* what they wish they’d known.
You’ll hear shareable insights gleaned from time in the IVF gauntlet, ways to manage the flattening nausea and fatigue of pregnancy, 40 hour labors and much more including expert medical insights to remake our expectations, making them more real, more human and more useful.
