In this deeply honest and often hilarious episode, Gen returns to share her second pregnancy and birth story - a journey that took her from secondary fertility struggles through severe hyperemesis gravidarum to achieving her dream maternal-assisted delivery. After trying to conceive naturally for six months following her first birth, Gen found herself back in the IVF clinic, this time juggling appointments with a toddler in tow. Her second pregnancy brought challenges she hadn't anticipated, including borderline hyperemesis that lasted well into her third trimester, but also the opportunity to process her first birth experience and advocate fiercely for what she wanted this time around.
