An engineer’s guide to parenthood

A talk from EMF 2024 by Ella Barrington

On Sunday June 2, 2024 at – in Stage C

A lot has happened at the other end of life since the last EMF camp; pregnancy, birth and adjusting to life with a tiny human.

I am an engineer, so when two thin blue lines appeared and I found myself thrown into the chaos of pregnancy and parenthood, I discovered that the best way of dealing with it was to use the engineering approach that was already ingrained in me. “An engineer's guide to parenthood” if you will.

Some bits worked (some less so!) and that’s what I want to share with you this year, following on from my 2022 talk, "An engineer's guide to grief".
