Manage episode 447782678 series 3511323
In this episode, I’m speaking with Klarissa who’s Active Duty in the Air Force and shares the birth of her son who was born in the UK this past summer. Klarissa’s prenatal care was offered in groups, which she really enjoyed. She ended up having an emergency C-section, and then she also experienced a postpartum hemmorage and had to have a blood transfusion. She also shares a few other perspectives including her experience with exclusive pumping, navigating careers in a dual-mil family, and her how her work with the Womens Initiatives Team has reinforced her dedication to her career in the Air Force.
