Bianca - Bronte's Mum. Contracted CMV, and birthed her baby at 20+1. Has 2 living children.

WOW - this podcast has a LOT of swearing!

I cannot believe the way this story unfolded. 

I met Bianca through a Mum's and Bub's personal training group, having no idea she had experienced baby loss until we lost our very own Milli.

Bianca found out very early on in her pregnancy that she had contracted CMV what unfolds over her 20 weeks of pregnancy and post-birth will blow your mind. (How she didn’t get paid mat leave because the hospital BACKDATED her babies birth so she was therefore not eligible to register her birth OR get mat paid leave - is just one part!) 

This podcast is very educational. Link to the Instagram page we discussed in the show: https://instagram.com/cmvstopswithme?igshid=YzAwZjE1ZTI0Zg==
