Welcome to That NICU Mum, a podcast sharing stories of New Zealand parents who have had a baby in a neonatal unit across the country.

Trigger warning -- this episode discusses infant loss/death during childbirth, please listen with caution.

Pagan talks us through the loss of baby George and the circumstances around his early birth, and the high risk pregnancy that followed with Madeline, her early birth and NICU stay, Pagan's struggle with mastitis and the road to home.

A huge thank you to Pagan (and her husband Jason) for allowing us to be a part of their story with George and Maddie.

I hope you enjoy this episode!

Chat soon,
