Manage episode 388851124 series 3358405
Part 1 of 2. Join us as we share an intimate exploration of the intricate journey to motherhood with our esteemed guest, Katherine Hunter. A mother, a lawyer, and an author, Katherine candidly shares her personal battles with infertility and her transition into motherhood. Get ready for an emotional rollercoaster, from the anticipation of an uneventful pregnancy to the joys and trials that follow the birth of a child.
Katherine's book, "Paths to Motherhood," provides a thought-provoking backdrop to our discussion. We highlight the myriad ways women become mothers, from IVF and adoption to natural conception, and we hold space for those who have experienced miscarriages or stillbirths. We shine a light on the unexpected twists and turns of pregnancy, from IHOP trips before hospital check-ins to the decision-making process of using pitocin during childbirth.
The conversation doesn't stop at birth. We journey into the rarely discussed postpartum period, from the initial euphoria of bringing a life into the world to the challenges that accompany a newborn's admission into the NICU. With honesty and raw emotion, we delve into the realities of postpartum anxiety and the pressures of being a new parent in turbulent times. Let our shared experiences on the Golden Hour Birth Podcast bring a sense of community and connection. Laugh, cry, and find solace in the shared, universal truths of motherhood. Part 2 coming next week.
