Jenn, from Saskatoon, SK shares her two pregnancy and birth stories on this episode of the podcast. She opens up about her and her husband's struggles with infertility and their journey with IVF. Once Jenn was pregnant with their first daughter, it was discovered later on that she had a very rare placenta issue and would require a scheduled c-section to ensure that labour would not start on it's own. She also had gestational diabetes which she was able to manage with an appropriate diet. After deliver, they were hit with some unexpected issues that required a difficult stay in NICU. Once they were able to take their baby home, postpartum went well and after about 10 months, they decided to start trying for their second baby, again with IVF. Jenn got pregnant surprisingly quickly this time and was able to go on and have a successful VBAC delivery.
