Little Kids: Giving Birth At 35, 34 and 33 Weeks

Welcome to This Glorious Mess Little Kids. A twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is. Confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny, and full of surprises. So many surprises. In Australia, 1 in every 10 babies is born prematurely. And for new parents, going through it can be a scary and isolating experience, that no one ever really prepares you for... So on today's episode, we're talking to someone who's lived through it, not once but three times, Pamela Palonis. She shares everything, from how she felt leaving the hospital without her baby to the words of encouragement she has for other parents going through it.  CREDITS Host: Leigh Campbell & Tegan Natoli Guest: Pamela Palonis, founder of the Basic Label Co.
