Episode 115 - Overcoming an Unplanned Pregnancy & Antenatal Depression with Laila

In this episode, I am chatting to Laila,  a first-time mum who struggled to accept her unplanned pregnancy. She candidly shares with us how difficult it was to come to terms with a positive pregnancy test, and how she handled sharing the news with her close family and friends. Despite suffering from antenatal depression, Laila went on to make it the best experience of her life so far. After the birth of her daughter she was able to truly see the gift she had been given, and her mission now is to help other women having a baby for the first time. Laila set up 'The Learning to Mom Podcast' which she explains has a wide variety of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experts. Her episodes support pregnant women having their first baby to learn more about their options so that they can have a positive experience throughout.
