You and Me, Kid
by Sarah Hubbard
You and Me, Kid is a podcast about having a baby on your own. I speak with single moms across the country who decided to start families without a partner and discuss the way they chose to make it happen, how the early days of momming felt, and how they make it work day to day. I also speak to women just starting to think about the possibility, experts in fertility, pregnancy and the emotional transition into motherhood. We discuss a wide array of resources that exist to help you navigate the choices, understand your options, pick a donor, and feel confident and supported to create the life that makes the most sense for you and your family. Whether you are thinking, trying, or already raising a child on your own, it is my sincere hope that this podcast provides some support, humor and community for you wherever you are.
