ARGH - pregnancy... There's so much we've not been taught and it's shocking that some of us will only find out when its too late?! Thinking about getting pregnant requires planning, even before you want one! This podcast is for every single woman - its for the 25 year old who knows she wants a baby but not right now, it's for the woman who's trying and it's for the woman who is already pregnant because we need to educate ourselves and we need to support one another. This episode covers supplements, freezing eggs, improving your chances of getting pregnant, contraception and going private vs NHS. Please remember, Ashley is not a Dr and this is not medical advice - please follow up with your Dr or Midwife before taking any advice.
