Anna gave birth to her second baby in February 2020, just weeks before all of lives were flipped upside down due to the pandemic. Anna describes how she juggled a newborn and a toddler as we were plunged into lockdown and how she fought for months to get concerns about her daughter's health taken seriously.

Your host is Phillippa Guillou, a journalist and radio presenter whose own baby was born at the height of the pandemic. You can get in touch with Phillippa here.
