Documentary, Reality, Kids and Family
In her first recording postpartum, Garrett revisits the final days of pregnancy from 40 to 41 weeks, navigating daily monitoring and growing pressure to induce due to IVF despite reassuring tests. Exhausted but intent on avoiding intervention, she follows her intuition when something feels off at 41 weeks. After a final biophysical profile leads to unexpected findings and a long, emotionally charged day in triage, she learns she won’t be going home. This episode reflects on the liminal space of waiting in late pregnancy, and the clarity that can come from trusting intuition even when clinical data appears normal.
