#13 Daisy Pearce: Life as an professional athlete navigating a high risk twin pregnancy and returning to work
Description
Our guest today Daisy Pearce, once a midwife, now a Channel 7 media football commentator and also in the coach's box at Geelong Cats but best known for her stella AFLW career, chats to us about how she had to navigate her own way through a high risk pregnancy with twins in the height of her AFLW career.
During pregnancy her and her partner Ben, discovered that one twin had heart issues, making her pregnancy in the public eye incredibly difficult, not knowing the fate of one of one twins.
Daisy describes herself as an “open book” as she talks us through her “fast paced” relationship with Ben and chats how they found out they were having twins!
Daisy had no predecessors to get advice on about returning to work as a professional athlete and looks forward to hopefully streamlining a path for women wanting to have a baby in AFLW and other codes on this difficult transition!
