In this personal update episode of The Well Nourished Mama Podcast, I’m sharing the story behind my (somewhat) unexpected pregnancy announcement, the complicated emotions that came with seeing a positive pregnancy test in this season, and why I believe it's time we normalize the full spectrum of emotions that can accompany pregnancy — not just excitement and joy.
As a mom of soon-to-be four children, while managing Hashimoto's, running a business, and navigating a busy season of life, I’m opening up about the expectations I had for my health before becoming pregnant again, why the timing felt especially difficult, and how I’ve worked through feelings of grief, frustration, guilt, and ultimately acceptance.
I’m also sharing the practical changes I’m making to support my body during this pregnancy — from nutrition and blood sugar support to circadian rhythm, mineral replenishment, symptom management, and learning to ask for help.
Whether you're trying to conceive with an autoimmune condition, currently pregnant, or simply navigating a season that looks different than you planned, this episode is an honest reminder that your feelings are valid, your body deserves support, and motherhood doesn't require perfection.
