TV personality, columnist and "Bad Republican" author Meghan McCain has made a career out of sharing her thoughts. Though usually political, she gets incredibly personal about her own life with host Zoë Ruderman on this episode of Me Becoming Mom, describing her "much rockier, much more complicated" road to motherhood in detail. The former "View" co-host opens up about the trauma of suffering a miscarriage in the public eye, being pregnant during the pandemic, enduring a long labor that resulted in an emergency c-section and postpartum preeclampsia that left her in the hospital for a week after giving birth to her daughter Liberty. Despite going through one of the darkest times in her life, Meghan reveals how she's healed both physically and emotionally, how her baby has made her feel more connected to her family including her late father Senator John McCain and the perspective she's gained in her new role as a parent. Then, we hear from listeners about the advice they would give their pre-pregnancy selves knowing everything they know now.
