I can hardly believe I’m writing this, but Maternity Abroad is officially in the proofreading stage! Cue the confetti, the celebratory dances, and all the happy tears because this moment has been such a long time coming.

To see it finally reaching this stage is surreal. And yes, I’m totally over the moon about it!

Why Maternity Abroad ?

The idea for Maternity Abroad was born out of my own experiences and those of so many amazing women I’ve met along the way. Living in a foreign country is an adventure, but when you add pregnancy, childbirth, and motherhood into the mix—it’s a whole new level of challenge and excitement!

This book was written to tell these stories and serve as a guide for other women in similar situations. It’s meant to say, "Hey, I get it. This is tough, but you’re not alone." Seeing this vision come to life is one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.
