Episode 23: A Conversation with My Husband at 23 Weeks Pregnant
This episode is a special conversation with my husband, Hunter, as we check in with each other a little over halfway through our current experience of pregnancy after loss.
We talk about:
The differences between this pregnancy and our first pregnancy with Ellis
Milestones we’ve experienced so far in pregnancy after loss
Staying present when anticipating “loss date” anniversaries during pregnancy after loss
Fears we still have at this point and feeling comfortable planning for a future with the baby
The impact of COVID-19 on pregnancy and birth and creating a new image of our experience
Finding peace about our decision for a scheduled C-section
What I’ve learned so far from other podcast interviewees and biggest takeaways from other bereaved parents
What we’re looking forward to about the last trimester and giving birth
Show Notes:
Episode 21 where I talk about our decision about scheduling a repeat C-section vs a VBAC (vaginal birth after cesarean)
