Parijat Deshpande on High-Risk Pregnancy and Healing Trauma [NE 074]

Parijat Deshpande is the leading high-risk pregnancy specialist, somatic trauma professional and speaker and author who guides women to improve their pregnancy complications so they can reduce their risk of preterm birth. Her unique neurobiological approach has served hundreds of women to manage pregnancy complications and reclaim a safety and trust in their bodies that they thought was eroded forever. She's also the author of bestselling book Pregnancy Brain: A Mind-Body Approach to Stress Management During a High-Risk Pregnancy and the host of the popular podcast Delivering Miracles®, discussing the real, raw side of family-building including infertility, loss, high-risk pregnancy, bed rest, prematurity and healing once baby comes home.  In this convo, we cover Parijat's own fertility journey - including life-threatening loss, IVF, bedrest, delivering her son at 25 weeks, working with a gestational carrier to bring her daughter into the world, her work on trauma and traumatic loss healing, how she coped with being on bedrest from six weeks on, what the gestational carrier pregnancy experience was like for her, what it felt like when her book was officially LAUNCHED out into the world, and more.
