61 | Emma Emmanuel: IVF, ovarian hyperstimulation, kidney defect and postnatal anxiety

How do you prepare for postpartum when you know your baby will be born with health challenges? In this episode, I chat to Emma Emmanuel, who's a mum to a one year old little boy and has had a bumpy ride to parenthood. She went through IVF, followed by severe ovarian hyperstimulation... and then found out that her little one was going to be born with a kidney defect. A difficult birth--for both Emma and her baby--was followed by her son developing sepsis at 10 weeks old. Add surgeries into the mix and Emma and her family have been through more than most in the first few months of parenthood. What I loved about this conversation is hearing how Emma dealt with the challenges with immense grace. It gave me a real sense of perspective, and I hope you all find it valuable  too.
