Medical moms Kristyn Newbern and Nichole Rosenberger discuss hard but necessary conversations we should all be having but often avoid for fear that people would not understand.
Once again, Nichole Rosenberger has joined Kristyn and Erica to discuss everything from finding solace in the connections we have made with other rare disease families, the change in our perspective regarding our identity as parents of children with disabilities, the burden that mothers feel with the societal pressure of having a "healthy baby," our experiences concealing a second pregnancy, and the challenging decisions we came to when each learned that we were carriers of a life-threatening genetic disease. Finally, Kristyn and Nichole share their thoughts on how they one day plan to explain these decisions to their children. This episode is the finale of this 3 part series which has centered around the subject of IVF and Preimplantation Genetic Testing (or PGT).
