¡Bebé a Bordo! - Baby on Board!

Author: Spanish and Go February 4, 2025 Duration: 27:24

We’ve been married for 12 years and spent much of that time thinking kids weren’t in the cards for us. But over the past year and a half, something shifted. In this episode, we reflect on the conversations, experiences, and even a health scare that led us to reconsider parenthood. From our initial doubts to the moment we found out we were expecting, we’re letting you in on all the emotions, surprises, and decisions that brought us here.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why we originally thought we wouldn’t have kids
  • The turning points that changed our minds
  • How we found out and told our families
