Fashioning Families

For our last episode of season 2 we are joined by the whole gang, kids and all! It's a chaotic snapshot into the life of Fashioning Families. Hope you enjoy it!

Our very special and very pregnant guest Sarah @sarahseekingbaby is back! She's in the last lap of her pregnancy and we discuss what happens next. Does water really break? Does spicy food start labour? All these questions and more!

*shout out to Erin's friend who was actually in labour during the recording of this episode, guess the tips worked*

Erin and Kelly talk about Junior's first birthday. Wow does time fly! We also discuss how other people see and relate to our family, or at least try to figure us out. 

Erin celebrates turning 40 on air with Kelly and some bubbly. They discuss the planning, challenges and compromises around Erin's upcoming return to work after maternity leave.

This episode starts out with a special kid guest star! We interview our Ginger Gent and ask him what it's like to be a kid from a donor, along with some other fun. 

Then we dig into some heavier topics that brought us to where we are today. We talk about death, abortion, and grief, so this may be a bit triggering for some of our listeners. These difficult moments in our lives that have helped us to form a deeper bond and our family of choice. 

We got here with lots of luck and loss!

Erin and Kelly are joined by a very special guest, @sarahseekingbaby, another single gal looking to become a mother. Lots of laughs and good information in this episode!
