I Didnât Want Kids⊠Then This Happened
Iâve 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 weâre doing it: all things pregnancy with my first baby, Elsie.
Iâm taking you all the way back to the beginning, because if youâve followed me for a while, you know I was not the âIâve always dreamed of being a momâ girl. Like⊠I dreaded babysitting. đ And then one day, it literally hit me out of nowhere: I want to have a baby.
In this episode Iâm sharing:
*
the mindset shift I didnât 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 pain⊠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 youâre walking through infertility, loss, or waitingâmy heart is with you. Please take care of yourself as you listen.
If you have more questions after this, DM me. And if youâre watching on YouTube, leave a comment with what you want me to talk about next (birth story episodeâŠ?? đ).
