078. Melodie had waited a long time to meet someone but had never really wanted children, even in her thirties. She met her partner at 41 and started having an intense desire to have a child with him. She and her partner talked about having a baby. She was pregnant the first month they tried but lost it. She was pregnant two cycles afterwards and lost that one, too. She was depressed about the two losses, and then her partner told her he didn’t want a baby. She moved out, but they still dated. A year later, she was pregnant again and worried she would lose the pregnancy or her partner. Join us as Melodie shares her relationship challenges and her journey to motherhood at 45.
