This episode of Kiwi Birth Tales is proudly sponsored by Woolworths NZ in support of the Little Miracles Trust.
In this episode I speak with Lucy about her spontaneous triplet pregnancy and the journey to welcoming her babies, Lainey, Archer and Morgan, at 30 weeks gestation.
Lucy shares what it was like finding out she was expecting triplets at her first ultrasound, navigating a high-risk pregnancy with Maternal Fetal Medicine, and the emotional weight of carrying three babies while facing serious medical complications including twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome.
We talk through:
Lucy also shares honestly about the emotional impact of NICU life, feeling disconnected after birth, and the lack of postpartum support for mothers once their babies are admitted to intensive care.
I'm incredibly grateful to Woolworths NZ and Little Miracles Trust for supporting this month’s episodes focused on NICU and SCBU journeys.
