In the episode I chat to Carolina who talks me through her two pregnancies and births. Carolina conceived four months after she and her husband made the decision was made to start a family. She felt fine throughout her first pregnancy but at 36 weeks she felt a sharp pain in her stomach. This pain was followed by vomiting and a very noticeable feeling of the babys head dropping after a visit to the toilet. Her baby was born hours later. From that initial pain to birth it was a mere three hours.Her second experience delivering her daughter was similar but even quicker at 1.5 hours. She talks me through her postpartum journey with both babies which was definitely impacted by the trauma her body experienced due to such quick births. She says she didn't feel that immediate surge of love for both babies but she remembers the very time she fell in love with her daughter at 11 weeks. She said a image of that moment with us, picture 4. So much in this episode and I know Carolinas story will resonate with so many of you------------------------------------------------------------------*This month the podcast is sponsored by @ergobabyuk who have just released their new Omni Breeze carrier.
