In this vulnerable episode, Ashleigh shares her pregnancy and birth story from the recent birth of her daughter. She covers topics including:

  • Her symptoms and overall experience during pregnancy, and how it differed from her first
  • How she managed severe pubic symphysis pain, and her experience with pelvic floor physiotherapy
  • All the details of her unmedicated water birth and the immediate postpartum period
  • Information on her exercise and nutrition
  • The ups and downs of being a parent of two, and how this is impacting her fitness and overall health
  • And much more!
