In this episode of the MamasteFit Podcast, Gina and Roxanne reveal Roxanne's surprise pregnancy with Baby #4.... likely the final MamasteFit baby (though we've heard this before!). The sisters discuss the emotional and practical implications of this new development as they explore the challenges and adjustments Roxanne faces as a labor and delivery nurse and student midwife, preparing for a home birth for the first time, and the impact on her future career plans. They share personal experiences, insights into navigating the perinatal period, and the importance of community and support during such transitions.
