    Ep 34: Week 9 - Postpartum Diaries With Steph

    I had a baby nine weeks ago and decided I’d like to share a bite size update each week of what postpartum has been like for me. This is real and raw, no editing, no scripts, just me waffling on. Today I share about my Velcro baby who wants to be attached to me 24/7, how babywearing has really helped, and the frustration I feel at not being able to work, create and contribute to the postpartum world in the way I’m used to. I think it’s FOMO but I’m gently reminding myself that I have enough going on right now! I also chat about my postpartum wardrobe and a few changes I’ve made so I can feel a bit more comfortable in what I’m wearing. I hope you enjoy. Come find me on Instagram @postpartum_with_steph

    Ep 33: Weeks 6, 7, and 8 - Postpartum Diaries with Steph

    I had a baby 8 weeks ago and decided I’d like to share a bite size update each week of what postpartum has been like for me. This is real and raw, no editing, no scripts, just me waffling on. Today I’ve combined 3 weeks together as let’s be honest, they all blur together at some point! I’ve decided I hate the word Colic because it’s so broad and finding answers to it is so difficult! We are still experiencing a pretty disgruntled, gassy babe. I also share about hubby being back at work (waahhhhh!) and my six week check up. I hope you enjoy.

    Ep 32: Week 5 - Postpartum Diaries with Steph

    I had a baby five weeks ago and decided I’d like to share a bite size update each week of what postpartum has been like for me. This is real and raw, no editing, no scripts, just me waffling on. Today I’m talking about the C word… Colic, and how difficult it is to manage because it’s difficult to pinpoint the cause. I also talk about how this week has been the most challenging so far due to sleep deprivation and breastfeeding issues. I hope you enjoy. Come find me on Instagram @postpartum_with_steph

Today I’ve combined week 3 and 4 and I share about how my c-section recovery is going (it’s one issue after another!), how we are coping with a baby who has colic (we are tired!), and how the adjustment is going for our 4-year-old (it’s challenging!).

    Ep 28: Fighting to breastfeed, with Steph and Clay

    Breastfeeding never came easy for me. I feel like I was constantly fighting an uphill battle, wading through misinformation from midwives, stress, and overwhelm. On today’s episode of the podcast I’m joined by my lovely husband Clay, as we remember back to three years ago when our breastfeeding journey began. It’s not all sunshine and roses I’m sorry to say. Some of the issues we faced includes our son losing more than 10% of his body weight, nipple damage, quick feeds that didn’t meet the expectations of the hospital, and pressure to introduce formula top ups. But we did get through it and now we are about to hit three years of breastfeeding.
