In this episode of The Worst Girl Gang Ever, hosts Bex Gunn & Laura Buckingham talk to Kate Morgan about her journey of motherhood, filled with both joy and heartbreak. Kate shares her experiences, starting with the moment she discovered she was pregnant and the rollercoaster ride that followed, including going through IVF in 2022. She talks about the anxiety-inducing 20-week anatomy scan, where she felt a sense of loss. The poor treatment the doctor gave her only added to her distress. She vividly describes the night before, when her son fell ill, and the subsequent realisation that something was terribly wrong. She walks through the amniocentesis, contractions, and the birth of her daughter. Kate opens up about the challenges of losing a baby and witnessing her loved ones endure the same pain. She emphasises the therapeutic power of getting outside, sharing stories, and self-advocacy.In this episode you will hear: Kate's pregnancy journey going through IVF and the emotional challenges she faced along the wayThe moment Kate felt like she was losing the babyKate's experience of preterm labour and the subsequent birth of her daughterHow to find happiness and support after experiencing baby lossThe Warriorship is a membership to help you navigate life after baby loss.
