Baby Baking & Kid Raising – Details, episodes & analysis

In this episode, we are sitting down with Katharine. Katharine is a paediatrician working in private practice specialising in neonatal peads, meaning she cares for babies from 0-2 years old. Katharine is also a mum to two children, and sadly experienced secondary fertility with her second child. After three and a half years of trying and several rounds of IVF, Katharine made the choice to use a donor egg, and go through the IVF process in the USA. 

Some questions we chatted through: 

• What was the experience like of becoming a mother, whilst being a paediatrician?
• What was it like working in her field, whilst struggling to fall pregnant herself?
• What was the process of using a donor egg?

In this episode, Aliza and Dr. Joe explores CMV, a common herpes virus that affects about 80% of adults by age 40. While usually harmless to those with healthy immune systems, CMV can pose serious risks if contracted during pregnancy, potentially harming a baby’s developing brain.

They discuss key facts, including that approximately 400 babies are born with CMV each year and that the virus is often asymptomatic. Regular testing every four weeks during pregnancy is crucial for monitoring CMV.

Tune in for practical tips on reducing risk, such as washing hands after nappy changes, avoiding saliva contact, and not sharing dummies or utensils with infants.
