If you didn’t know, I am currently pregnant with my first child. This is my second pregnancy, my first pregnancy was a few years ago and I made the difficult decision to have an abortion. This time around is so different, I am so excited to give birth and bring you along with my experience of pregnancy and becoming a new mum.In this solo episode, I am talking all about my journey of preconception, conception, and what my experience was in the first trimester. You will hear about how my partner and I adapted our lifestyle before conceiving, when we conceived our child, how I found out I was pregnant, why we decided on a home birth, and the symptoms I experienced throughout the first trimester.
