It鈥檚 two years since Russia's full-scale invasion. The war has claimed tens of thousands of lives, left millions of Ukrainians as refugees, and wrought much destruction.

When your home is invaded and everything is shattered and turned upside down, what happens to your life?

Host James Reynolds hears from three women in Ukraine who, despite the dangers of war, chose to have a baby.

鈥淭he day when I was giving birth there were missiles and drones at the same moment passing the maternity hospital,鈥� says Halya Rudyk, who lives in a small village near Kyiv and whose daughter is now eight months old. 鈥淒efinitely I was worried but that鈥檚 the life we have here now.鈥�

At the start of the war, millions of women and children escaped to safety abroad. With the passing of time, some have decided to return. Three of those women come together to discuss their decisions to go back home..
