From Miscarriages to Twins: Jerri Jones' Unexpected Journey to a Family of Six

Season 1 Episode 9 Published 2 months ago
Description

In this episode of All At Once, we’re joined by Jerri Jones, who shares her journey through three miscarriages, unexplained infertility, and the shock of falling pregnant with twins.

From navigating a high-risk twin pregnancy during COVID, to being hospitalised with preeclampsia, to having an emergency caesarean just days before her planned delivery — this is a deeply honest conversation about resilience, advocacy, and trusting your instincts in pregnancy.

We also talk about the transition from two to four kids, and why having twins wasn’t necessarily the hardest part — unpacking the mental load, overstimulation, and what life really looks like raising four children across completely different stages.
