In today’s episode we’re hearing from Reyna, who is a Navy Spouse. Reyna shares the birth story of her second child, who was born at the very end of 2019. Reyna and her family PCS’ed overseas when she was 6 months pregnant, only to find out almost immediately that she’d be sent back to the states to give birth. Reyna had a planned c-section and then a few days later, she ended up at the ER with severe stomach pain which ended up being what the doctors called retained products of coneption. After an emergency D&C she had a few weeks to recover in the airbnb before needing to fly back to Japan, and then her husband deployed shortly thereafter. Needless to say Reyna really went through a lot during this birth and postpartum and despite it all she still devotes much of her time and energy to making the military life easier for other families through her own work on her blog and podcast called The Desk of a Navy Wife.
