Trigger warning: this episode includes discussion of miscarriage and IVF.
In this episode, we pick up where we left off: we've just found out we're pregnant, and now we're diving into the rollercoaster of all three trimesters. We recorded this one with a fancy orange wine called Methodic - because after pregnancy (even 3.5 years later), we deserved something bougie.
Vicky’s pregnancy was mostly magical (minus the anxious first trimester and miscarriage fears), while Emma’s was mostly miserable - think nausea, exhaustion, and a body that fully rebelled thanks to hypermobility. We chat scans, weird symptoms (pregnancy rhinitis?!), and the endless list of things you’re suddenly “not allowed” to do.
There’s hypnobirthing, affirmations, baby classes, and covid chaos. Plus: a no-alcohol Christmas, baby showers, and the wonderful fact that you CAN have soft cheese, as long as it's piping hot (with a whole slice of bread obvs).
We’re not experts - just two mums oversharing our way through motherhood, one trimester (and one wine) at a time. Cheers!
