Description
In this next episode I share my chat with Laura who talks me through her two experiences with birth. Laura not only shares her two birth stories but she also chats about other aspects of early motherhood and pregnancy too. The birth of her first little girl definitely wasn’t what Laura expected which she feels contributed to some tough moments as a first time mother. Laura was diagnosed with pregnancy depression while expecting her second baby. She chats about her symptoms, support and how “the lights were turned back on” as a result of receiving the right treatment. Laura was also supported by Jen Crawford Co-founder of @doulacareireland who was at the end of the phone anytime she needed. She changed her mindset, used the BRAIN acronym and told herself she would enjoy this Laura’s daughter was admitted to NICU after a diagnosis of sepsis and a urinary infection. She talks us through those first few days, her stay in NICU and when they eventually took her home.
