Description
This is one incredible story! This week we’re chatting to the beautiful Gen about her hidden pregnancy (also known as a cryptic pregnancy). Gen talks us through her journey of discovering she was pregnant at 32 weeks, then after a series of unexpected events giving birth to her beautiful baby boy only a few days later.  Gen is a 32 year old Mama, primary school teacher, and beach enthusiast who loves to be around her friends and family. Gen shares her journey of coming to terms with the unexpected pregnancy and launching into life as a single Mum with only a few days notice.
