Episode 2: Pissing Ourselves with Tinuke Awe Up the Duff

    • Kids & Family

Up the Duff is brought to you by the Positive Birth Company in Partnership with Elvie
Produced by Audio AF
In this first series we are diving straight in at the deep end and tackling TABOOS! The everyday stuff most people experience after having a baby, but which nobody likes to talk about.
I’ll be chatting to friends of The Positive Birth Company about their experiences, as well as sharing my own, on everything from poo, wee, mind, body, sex and bodily fluids. If it’s a bit gross or a bit embarrassing, you can be sure we’ve got it covered.
About this episode
We’re going to be discussing something that affects a LOT of people in pregnancy and after birth, but is still pretty taboo, probably because it can feel a little bit embarrassing. We’re going to be talking about wee - yup, pissing yourself! As well as full blown accidents, we’re going to be talking about the little leaks and the near-misses! We’re going to share our personal experiences and hopefully normalise talking about what is a really common issue for people, especially those who are pregnant or have given birth.
About Tinuke
Tinuke is a mother of two, a blogger, content creator, campaigner and early years learning enthusiast. She is the founder of Mums & Tea, started back in 2017 when she was 9 months pregnant with her first son Ezekiel. She sought to build a tribe around her, since she was the first one out of her close circle of friends to have a baby. She knew she couldn’t be the only young black woman in southeast London to have just had a baby, so started hosting monthly events to connect with other mums from similar backgrounds. Through the Mums and Tea events she has been able to connect many mums together to create lifelong friendships sharing all the joys and struggles that we go through as black British mothers.
Five X More is a grassroots organisation committed to changing Black women and birthing people’s maternal health outcomes in the UK. It was initiated in 2019 when two Black mothers came together with the dream of improving maternal mortality rates and health care outcomes for Black women. Five X More is dedicated to supporting mothers and birthing people with its campaigning work and recommendations. It focuses on empowering Black women and birthing people to make informed choices and advocate for themselves throughout their pregnancies and after childbirth.
