Listen Later

Lara is a mum to two boys under 2. She had her second son in April 2020, during NSW's lockdown period. This meant that after her husband left the hospital, he was unable to return to provide support or visit his new baby. Lara talks about what it was like in the hospital during this time, how different this newborn experience was compared to her first son and how her 2 month old baby reacted when he met people (other than his parents and GP) for the first time. 
Like many second-time mums, the things that Lara was consumed by with her first baby she is less so now, because she knows that babies reach their milestones when they're ready and sleep does return! (Great news for us all). 
Part of Lara's journey has been learning to embrace each new stage as it arises and enjoying the moments with her boys. Hear this and so much more in this episode!
