38. Dealing with an unexpected diagnosis, with Ell Anderson

Midwife and mama of 4 Ell Anderson was pregnant with her first child when she received a complex medical diagnosis for her unborn son. Ell then goes on to have three more children and her other little boy has the same diagnosis. 

In this episode Ell so kindly lets us into her world and her experience of learning of this diagnosis before her first son was born and then received the same diagnosis while her fourth child was a newborn - we go through the pregnancy, birth, hospital stay, neonatal intensive care unit,  breastfeeding and ongoing experience with two children with a chronic illness. 

You can find Ell over on instagram @ellianderson_

I cant thank Ell enough for chatting about this with me so openly.
