Iโve been meaning to make this episode forever because I get sooo many questions about my pregnancy, while I was pregnant, postpartum, and honestly just from sharing my life online. So today weโre doing it: all things pregnancy with my first baby, Elsie.
Iโm taking you all the way back to the beginning, because if youโve followed me for a while, you know I was not the โIโve always dreamed of being a momโ girl. Likeโฆ I dreaded babysitting. ๐ And then one day, it literally hit me out of nowhere: I want to have a baby.
In this episode Iโm sharing:
the mindset shift I didnโt expect
trying to get pregnant + what that was like emotionally
how I found out I was pregnant (and how we told our families)
my trimester breakdown: the good, the hard, the gross, the real
cravings, sickness, skin stuff, weight gain, back painโฆ all of it
what I want to do differently before baby #2 (strength, habits, Hyrox, the whole thing)
Also, quick note: I know this topic can be tender. If youโre walking through infertility, loss, or waitingโmy heart is with you. Please take care of yourself as you listen.
If you have more questions after this, DM me. And if youโre watching on YouTube, leave a comment with what you want me to talk about next (birth story episodeโฆ?? ๐).
