What this episode covers
Imagine being 32 weeks pregnant, waking up in intense pain and not knowing what it was? Well that's exactly what happened to me. What started as pain eventually turned into requiring emergency surgery. In today’s episode I share a little more about this experience and my perspective since it happened. I also answer some questions that I received about being pregnant as an occupational therapist.
