Baby #2 is a Mother
Manage episode 383691051 series 3515234
Growing up, we have ideas of what we want our future family structure to look like, and more often than not, these ideas change because of factors that are out of our control. We have certainly both found this to be true when considering expanding our family unit and all of the little decisions that come into play. This week, episode 5 of ___ Is a Mother Podcast is why baby #2 is a mother!
In this episode of ___ Is a Mother Podcast, we’re sharing how we imagined our family structure to look as young women and how it has evolved (and is still evolving) over time. Some of the talking points we go over in this episode include:
- Finding the silver linings in the unplanned and unpredicted.
- Reframing the negative ideas we have around vulnerability to see it as the strength that it is.
- What Jamie’s breast cancer diagnosis means for her family planning journey.
- PV & husband’s decision to move forward with fertility treatments for baby number 2, or come to terms with their family of three.
