Ep. 32: Sadhbh Devlin on ectopic pregnancy
Manage episode 348937570 series 3252222
In this episode, I talk to Irish-language children's author, TV production assistant and researcher, and all-round maker and creative, Sadhbh Devlin, about her two ectopic pregnancies. Sadhbh has polycystic ovarian syndrome and had very irregular periods, so conceiving wasn't easy for her in the first place – but then she had both her fallopian tubes removed, and suddenly IVF was her only option.
You can find out more about Sadhbh and her work on her website, on Twitter, or on Instagram. Bits of Me is on Instagram too, as well as on Twitter.
If you like the podcast and believe in the mission of keeping these conversations going, there's a Patreon to help cover the running costs. Could you spare a few quid a month and, in return, get early access to episodes, monthly pieces of writing and a Bits of Me badge? If you can't help financially, tagging friends, sharing episodes on your socials, subscribing to the podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and rating and reviewing it helps a lot too.
