Kathryn’s story of Emie coming Into the World

Kathryn’s story - bringing baby Emie ‘into the world’.

Who better to talk to than your best friend, your ultimate supporter and all round amazing human. Kathryn is my best friend, the kind of friend we all need, beautiful inside and out. (I meant who else could look this good after a c-section)

I’ve known her since were 11. Sometimes we talk everyday and sometimes we don’t talk for weeks but honestly it doesn’t matter cos we are so close and have been there for each other through all of life’s up and downs. Including miscarriage and babies born just weeks apart. #friendshipknowsnodistance

Although Kathryn only briefly touches on her miscarriage in this episode, it’s something that really effected her. She found great comfort in choosing to believe that the timing wasn’t right for her and partner Shaun and that that loss brought her Emie.

Kathryn and I talk about every from her planned c-section, her 3 week hospitalization and making the best of hard situations. How she copes with life’s trials is a real testament to the kind of person she is. Plus quite frankly she is hilarious, probably the reason her nickname is ‘chuckles’. The only person i know comfortable enough to call me from a loo (toilet) lol!

Thank you Kathryn for sharing Emie’s story with us. For making me laugh out loud. For always supporting me and participating in this podcast cos I know how out of your comfort zone it is. As always you are even more brilliant than you realize.

Emie is lucky to have you, as am I.

Happy listening people. This one is a real treat.
