The Australian Surrogacy Podcast Episode 51 is with Michelle, doula, FIFO partner and mum from WA. Michelle enjoyed pregnancy and birth so much that she went back and did it again, for WA couple Kate and Kris. Kate has MRKH, and the team found each other through the surrogacy community. Whilst they had an amazing pregnancy and birth experience, Michelle suffered from a post-partum haemorrhage and woke up in ICU the next day. The experience was traumatic, and yet Michelle says she’d do it all over again if she could.

You can read more about Michelle’s Amazing Surrogacy story, and also follow her on Instagram.
