191: Alice Woods had three miscarriages in a row during the peak of Covid
Listen now
Description
This week, I'm very pleased to introduce you to Motherland's Queensland Ambassador Alice Woods. Alice is based on a farm near Goondiwindi, she's a trained vet, and spent more than 4 years in a long distance relationship with her now husband Dave, until they finally settled down on his family's farm. The journey to parenthood was not easy. After having her first little boy through IVF, Alice had three miscarriages in a row...and if living rurally wasn't isolating enough, it all happened during the peak of covid. Before I had my miscarriage, I had no idea what to expect, and like Alice, being so unprepared for what happened physically only intensified the emotional trauma. Alice has bravely shared the raw reality of her experience,  in the hope it helps someone else.  Just a warning, parts of this episode might be triggering for some.
