What's in my Hospital Bag for a C-Section as a Second Time Mom
I can’t believe the last time I posted a blog post I was over nine months ago. 😱
While I’ve been sharing more frequent updates over on TikTok and Instagram, the last time I published a YouTube video or blog post was in March 2022…
Back then, I was recovering from my sixth miscarriage, quitting my full-time job, and unclear what was next for me - in life or in business.
Now here I am in January 2023, thirty-eight weeks pregnant with our second child and packing my hospital bag!
That’s right, this month we’re having our second c-section and that means it is time to get packed and ready to go.
As a second-time mom, I have a lot more confidence this time around about what I want to bring to help me be more comfortable in the hospital and to support c-section recovery.
