Join me and mother of three, Lacy Bruner, as she describes her three pregnancies and birth stories, including both unplanned and elective cesarean section births. We also discuss Lacy's journey through loss, after her brother unexpectedly passed away during her second pregnancy. Lacy describes how this event shaped her pregnancy, the newborn phase and how she sought support as she navigated her grief.

In this episode, we discuss:

• How Lacy was deemed "high risk" during her first pregnancy simply based on her BMI
• The steps Lacy took to find a more suitable provider for her
• What it feels like to experience loss during pregnancy and the early days of parenting
• The importance of taking care of yourself while riding the waves of grief
• Lacy's journey through pregnancy and birth with her three children.
