Nancy Di Nuzzo
Hi, I’m Nancy. A wife, daughter, friend, and mom of two little ones. I’m a bit of a perfectionist, a bit of an overachiever, and I’ve got a whole lot of passion.
My motherhood journey started on February 3, 2020 – the day I found out I was pregnant. I had just gotten married and we had several travel plans that year (although we wouldn’t be the only ones to have our travels disrupted in 2020…). It came as a complete shock, but once it settled in, I had a happy and healthy pregnancy.
Like many of us, my labor and birth experience was nowhere near what I had planned or expected, but my daughter Amaya arrived, beautiful and healthy.
The period that followed changed everything. I returned to the hospital a week later and was admitted to the psychiatric ward. I was diagnosed with postpartum psychosis, which was followed by a long journey of guilt, anger, confusion, sadness, and eventually recovery.
