Elaine Welteroth is pregnant with a second baby. She says, “This was not part of my plan. This is God’s plan.”
Popular American journalist, author, and television host Elaine Welteroth has announced that she is pregnant. She shared the exciting news of expecting her second baby on Thursday during an interview with People.
While talking about her pregnancy, she says, “This was not part of my plan. This is God’s plan. But as we were building the birthFund, I happened to find out that my baby’s going to be part of the first birthFund cohort.”
Elaine Welteroth also discussed her second pregnancy experience and described it “better.” She says, “So good and so much better than I did last time because this time I have a midwife from the beginning. Last time, I did not even discover midwifery until my third trimester.”
She added, “I did not even work up the nerve to do a home birth until week 36. So this time, my pregnancy experience has transformed because I have access.”
The pregnancy was a “shock” for Elaine Welteroth as she had no plans for it. However, when she knew, she just had to surrender.
“I guess this is part of the bigger master plan, and it deepened the meaning of this work because it felt even more personal,” she said.
