S2, E21 - Rhys and Leila @weareheavymental (part 1) - MMC

This is our first chat with a couple and what a lovely pair they are. These guys  have a real ‘passion for conversation’ - that’s their catchphrase but we are borrowing it! Here is part 1 of our chat with Leila and Rhys of the We Are Heavy Mental Podcast. These two love birds met online and moved in together pretty sharpish after finding out they were expecting a baby. This pregnancy ended in a missed miscarriage for which they opted for medical management after the natural management was unsuccessful. We talked about dealing with the physical aspects of miscarriage and the difficulties with knowing what to do and what to expect. We then begin discussing the early stages of their next pregnancy and this part of their story his concluded in the next episode.--------------------------------This episode is sponsored by Teapigs.
