Kate Smith from @yourmumfriend shares her experiences entering motherhood, her struggles, her third birth which was a CAT1 emergency caesarean section to save her baby’s life and how she processed and coped with her intense birth experience. Kate also shares her experience with undiagnosed postnatal depression which manifested as rage and how life is going now with her 3 boys aged 6, 4 & 2 and the beautiful gift of hindsight and loving our postpartum bodies. This conversation was just like chatting to a friend and there is lots of laughter but we also get serious about certain topics and Kate has such a refreshing perspective and is such a pleasure to know!
