In this episode Luhama Tau'alupe is reflects on the first moments of coming into parenthood where she talked to Thabi about the clash of expectations set by media, vs. the very reality of her early struggles with pregnancy. Through normalising conversations around the many different layers of pregnancy we hope to help undo the knots of shame of when it comes to seeking help. You are never alone.

Trigger warning: Brief mentions of suicide, self-harm and disordered eating
