S 4 Ep 8 – My Birth + Postpartum Story | Kate, Your Host
I’m back on the mic and officially a MOTHER to 8-week-old Sienna Joy – and what a whirlwind it has been…
Tune in to this episode to hear exactly what went down (11 days overdue, multiple induction procedures, failed epidurals, doctor unavailable due to family emergency, the FULL birth story!)
As well as my postpartum experience so far including my struggles with guilt and loneliness due to starting a family abroad and my best advice for when you do the same.
