    How Simone moved through her emotions during a difficult time

    A message to our listeners: Wherever you are at in your relationship to pregnancy is okay. You are there for a reason.

Be confident in handling the situation your way. Need support? Check out Postpartum Support International for resources to support parents and parents-to-be.
