In this episode we feature the story of a young woman who pursued pregnancy in a country different from her own, where language barriers and a different approach to care contributed to what became her life threatening condition. Originally told that she was not pregnant, she learns, many weeks later she has an ectopic pregnancy–but not your garden variety ectopic pregnancy.  Thanks to her organized effort and perseverance, she saved her own life. In a second pregnancy, she goes on to deliver a beautiful daughter, who is a mirror of her mother’s driven spirit.

This is a weekly show that highlights real pregnancy, birth & postpartum stories.
