When we first learn we are expecting, there is a huge shift we feel, a roller coaster of emotions and we go through a process of acceptance and preparation. Part of this process can be reflecting on our own childhoods, our early memories of our mothers, and the questions of how this baby will be birthed and how to parent all come flooding in at the same time.
In this episode, we hear from Meghann’s Mother, who trusts us with the deepest secrets of her upbringing, her traumatic birthing experience, along with her challenges as a single mother and giving her children up to their father. Meghann’s Mother was a midwife and breastfeeding advocate and was dedicated to the attachment parenting style. She had a passion for nurturing her children through communication, emotional connection and keeping your children physically close. Despite all of the challenges in her upbringing and in motherhood, she was still able to embrace “doing old fashioned things” and was mindful of her children and herself.
There’s magic and wonder and beauty in your days.
