A huge thank you to Courtney and the whole PKC team for supporting us and our podcast!You can find them online premmieknittingclub.org and on instagram and facebook @premmieknittingclubnzThis episode we speak to Lana, who after having a super straightforward pregnancy and birth with her daughter Olivia, and a fairly straighforward pregnancy with Louie ended up with him in the SCBU - even though he was born at term. A pretty fast birth saw him struggle with breathing a little initially and then a midwife picked up at Louie wasn't breathing at 12 hours old.Louie had a relatively short stay in SCBU but it was still awful for Lana who also had Olivia at home to think about!Thanks heaps to Lana for chatting with me. Enjoy!Shan x x Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
