What to Expect When You're Expecting...In Grad School

In this episode of Dear Grad Student, Elana chats with two of her real-life best friends: 5th year doctoral candidate and Clinical Intern, Stephanie Judge, and 5th year doctoral student, Gaby Puleo, about their personal experiences having a baby (or two) in grad school. They also discuss how to tell your mentor, Elana crying when she found out Gaby was having twins, Stephanie discussing the hallmark and anti-hallmark moments, and Gaby confronting 'Mom Guilt' head-on.
