Ep. 174: Faith over fear during pregnancy and labor, with Laura Ducote

A positive pregnancy test comes with a tidal wave of emotions and, sometimes, fears. Will everything be okay? How will we afford this? What if something happens? New struggles emerge as you approach labor and delivery. Can I do this? How will I handle the experience? What if something goes wrong? While these may seem like practical questions about pregnancy and delivery, they are also deeply spiritual in nature. Will God be with me? Can I trust God with this pregnancy? Laura and I discuss some of our deepest pregnancy fears and how we encounter God's peace and comfort along the way. NOTE: This episode is appropriate for all audiences, but does briefly mention pregnancy loss.BIO: Laura Ducote is a Family Nurse Practitioner with training in NaProTechnology and is currently a FertilityCare Practitioner at Woven Natural Fertility Care. Other episodes you might enjoy:Ep.138: Faith-informed fertility decisions, with Fr.
