Get ready to be captivated. This week, we had the privilege of sitting down with the incredibly resilient Emily, a mother of five and soon -to-be six, who shared her riveting journey through pregnancy and birth. Emily's raw and honest recount of her first birth experience, a sudden placental abruption at 36 weeks leading to an emergency C-section, will leave you on the edge of your seat. But it's not just about the drama; Emily's story is a testament to her strength, a whirlwind of emotions, and the overwhelming relief of finally holding her newborn daughter.
But Emily's story doesn't stop there. She also walked us through the struggles and anxieties that came postpartum. The emotional roller coaster of a NICU stay, the fear of not being able to bring her daughter home immediately, and the subsequent pregnancies and births that each came with their unique challenges. Emily talks about her desire to have a VBAC and the tranquil joy of welcoming each new life into her ever-growing family.
As our candid conversation with Emily unfolds, you'll gain profound insights into her journey with multiple pregnancies, the mental and physical changes that come with each one, and the importance of seeking help. Emily openly shares her struggles with postpartum anxiety, the strength she found, and her trajectory towards a positive mindset. Listen closely to Emily's advice for new moms and anyone grappling with their mental health. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom from a brave woman who has walked through the fire and come out stronger on the other side. This is a conversation you don't want to miss.
