<p>This week, I share my chat with Anna, who talks me through each of her four pregnancies and two births. Anna revisits her first pregnancy, where a routine scan revealed a blighted ovum. She speaks openly about the physical and emotional impact of that miscarriage.</p><p>We then move through her two birth stories the first, an unplanned emergency C-section after progressing to 8cm, and the second, a planned C-section that offered a very different experience. Anna also shares the heartbreak of her fourth pregnancy, during which she experienced another miscarriage and underwent a D&C. Throughout all four pregnancies, she was supported by her consultant, whose care she recalls with deep gratitude.</p><p>We also talk about the moment you recognise your family is complete and how complex and emotionally challenging it can be to reach that place.</p><br><p>Thanks Anna</p><p>Produced & edited by Corah Gernon at <strong><em>She Talks Productions</em></strong></p><br><p>Show Your Support</p><p><a href="https://open.acast.com/buymeacoffee.com/Corahgernon" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Buy Me A Coffee</a></p><p><a href="https://patreon.com/irelandsbirthstories?utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator&utm_content=join_link&utm_id=b82cad22-4b60-49bc-b39a-4c377473c7d8&utm_medium=email" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
