387 | Alexandra, solo mum by choice, donor-conceived, doula, student midwife, positive birth, supported postpartum

from Australian Birth Stories · host Sophie Walker

In this episode I chat to Alexandra about the day she woke up with a sudden longing to have a baby. Her partner at the time didn’t have the same desire so she left New York and returned home to Melbourne to live with her parents, heartbroken but hopeful. She dated with dedication but didn’t meet anyone who she felt could be the father of her child or a life partner. Under pressure to beat her reproductive timeline, she pursued the path of solo-motherhood, had a really positive birth experience and was incredibly supported in early postpartum.   --------------------- Prepare for a positive birth experience with my new book .See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
