  • Episode 3: Mothering Multiples, with Katherine Feetham
    KEY TOPICS: 7 births, twins, hyperemesis, umbilical cord prolapse, 2 emergency caesareans, 1 miscarriage Get ready to meet our biggest family so far! In this episode, Kathy Feetham talks about giving birth seven times over an 18 year period... to all girls! She describes how each of the pregnancies compared, with a mix of 'easy' textbook journeys, alongside more complicated deliveries. There is one mention of early miscarriage towards the very end of this episode.Kathy's stories have amazing twists and turns, as you might expect. Did she find out the gender each time? Did she breastfeed all seven? Why does she describe her last child as a miracle baby? You’ll hear how she naturally delivered twins... with different birth dates. About the incredible power of intuition, how one baby arrived during a family event, and how she responds to the many questions and comments from strangers.I loved recording this episode - Kathy describes herself as a calm person and exudes gentle warmth and humour in this episode. It’s lovely hearing about the supportive role of her husband throughout too. Kathy has a way of making remarkable events sound quite straightforward, and her obvious love of motherhood just shines through from start to finish. I hope you'll find as much pleasure in hearing her stories, as I did recording them! (November 2024).Find more about Kathy's story and the podcast on Instagram: born_on_the_rockIf you'd like to tell your story, email: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

  • Episode 2: Secondary Infertility, with Tara Montegriffo
    KEY TOPICS: 3 pregnancies, hyperemesis, Turner's syndrome, omphalocele, genetics, second trimester loss, secondary infertility, IVFWe're meeting Tara Montegriffo in this episode: a Gibraltarian wife and mother of one young daughter at the time of recording (November 2024). Please be aware that this is an emotional listen, involving discussion of baby loss.Tara describes her three difficult pregnancy journeys, involving debilitating hyperemisis until delivery. After the safe caesarean birth of her first daughter, she went on to suffer two devastating miscarriages... one in the second trimester, due to Turner's syndrome, omphalocele and cardiology complications. Tara speaks candidly about the trauma surrounding the loss of her second child, including weeks of travelling between Spain, Gibraltar and London for genetic testing and specialist care.As Tara and her husband dream of growing their family, she describes the challenges in facing secondary infertility, including hidden costs and burdens involved in the IVF process. I'm very grateful to Tara for sharing her story, to help raise awareness and normalise conversations for others going through difficult pregnancy journeys. She feels strongly about women supporting one another, and during our discussion Tara spoke so eloquently and with composure about her experiences. I would love to welcome Tara back on the podcast in future, hopefully with happy news of a sibling for her daughter.If you feel affected by details in this story, BabySTEPPS Gibraltar offer baby loss support through pregnancy and parenthood:https://www.facebook.com/BABYSTEPPSGIBFind more about Tara's story on Facebook and Instagram: born_on_the_rockIf you'd like to tell YOUR story, email: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

  • Episode 1: Pregnant through a Pandemic, with Kathy Sanchez
    KEY TOPICS: 2 births, PCOS, infertility, gestational diabetes, retained placenta, pandemic.In the very first episode of Gibraltar Birth Stories, we meet Kathy - who has a great story about her own arrival on the Rock in the 1980's! She and her husband first met at primary school, and they have two young children together.Kathy and her husband encountered fertility issues due to polycystic ovary syndrome when they began trying to conceive. After tests and treatment, they fell pregnant in 2020... and found out just a week before the global lockdown! She describes what it was like to be pregnant at that vulnerable time, plus the fast natural births of her daughter, and then son almost two years later. Kathy was at risk of pre-eclampsia with her first birth, and talks about recovery from retained placenta with her second. She shares her experience of becoming a family of four, and the advice she would go back and give herself as a new mother.This is a really heartwarming listen (with quite a few food references too!) - and I'm hugely grateful for Kathy's support in being the very first Born on the Rock podcast story. This episode was recorded in October 2024.Find more about Kathy's story and the podcast on Instagram: born_on_the_rockIf you'd like to tell your story, email: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
