Listen "Destiny: “A Covid test was stopping us from being together.”"
Episode Synopsis
Destiny’s journey into motherhood was far from smooth. After a complicated pregnancy and many stressful visits to hospital, her baby was born prematurely at 30 weeks and spent the next 5 weeks fighting for his life in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Destiny says her son was transferred to a different hospital hours after he was born - leaving her unable to meet him for 2 days as she was forced to wait for a negative Covid test.
Destiny was left with PTSD and Post-Natal Depression from the ordeal and says she believes the Covid restrictions in place in June 2020 played a huge part in her trauma.
