TW- pregnancy loss / miscarriage

Lydia is first and foremost an exceptionally good friend and a sister figure to me and has exemplified herself to be the kind of mum I hope to be one day. She has a gorgeous baby boy earth side, although her journey to motherhood has sadly not been quite so straightforward. In this episode, Lydia speaks honesty and from the heart to share her experiences of miscarriage and pregnancy loss. Prior to recording, we had a conversation about how as a society we can sometimes be naive to the difficulties that can be associated with conceiving, carrying a baby and giving birth. Perhaps we've watched too many movies with the "white picket fence" mentality; we think we'll get married, have a family and live happily ever after. Simple. This recording has  been so educational for me and has increased my admiration for women and their journeys to motherhood so much more. 

This episode is for people with a variety of experiences. The one who feels uneducated and wants to change that. The one who has babies in heaven. The one who has experienced pregnancy after loss. In every situation, I hope that you are encouraged or comforted by what Lydia shares. 

An episode dedicated to the eldest children of Lydia and Stuart - always remembered and always loved.
