High-Risk Pregnancy at 40: Cholestasis, True Knots, and Postpartum Healing

039. Audrey was at her healthiest at 40, living by the mantra "if it happens, it happens." Then, a 40th birthday trip to Miami changed everything. After having babies in her 20s and 30s, Audrey thought she knew what to expect—but her fifth pregnancy was a completely different chapter.

In this episode, Audrey gets honest about why she actually dislikes being pregnant and how she shifted her focus from the "perfect birth" to a deeply intentional "Fourth Trimester." From a surprise diagnosis of Cholestasis to an incredibly fast delivery in a hospital shower, Audrey shares the wisdom she gained navigating motherhood, homeschooling, and healing in her 40s.
