    Bumpie Group Chat: the school year is already catching up on us and so is our age

    The Bumpie Group Chat is back and it’s a bit of a different vibe to earlier in the week. Reality is sinking in and we need to talk about it… Pearl had a tough time starting pre-school and not only is it heart-breaking, it’s making Sophie wonder how she is actually going to get work done Jayde is finally feeling her age and we dive into aging mentally and physically. Greys, fine lines and chin hairs - are we embracing them? Are we chasing beauty standards because we actually want to or is it social pressure!? Sophie asks Jayde to share candidly how she frames her Botox appointments with her daughters Kids can be brutal to each other - how do we help them navigate social challenges and peer pressure?    This episode is proudly sponsored by iL Tutto.

    REPLAY: Anyone else feeling overwhelmed by motherhood? Being compassionate with ourselves - with Belinda Haan

    This week we are replaying this episode which contains honest, personal discussions about difficult emotions such as rage and anger. Motherhood provides plenty of experiences of joy, love and gratitude but it also contains frustration, exhaustion, anger and overwhelm among many other emotional states.  When we know that difficult emotions are an inherent part of motherhood, and being human, it can help us feel less alone or prevent us from experiencing shame. Emotions are an automatic response to internal or external stimuli. We don’t get to choose what arises but we can learn to work with what comes up and how to meet our needs to feel okay.  There were a few ideas shared on how to work with difficult emotions on this episode and there are plenty more in The Emotional Support for Mothers toolkit. However, we all know that the reality is that it can be hard to experience and make sense of these emotions on our own.  If you are experiencing persistent painful feelings you need and deserve love, care and support. Please contact your doctor to discuss how to get the compassionate support you deserve.  Here are some free resources that may support you: Postnatal Rage: Centre for Perinatal Excellence (COPE) Gidget Foundation PANDA Beyond Blue Working with our triggers: free guided reflection coming soon - sign up here.  The Emotional Support for Mothers toolkit    Beyond the Bump is a podcast brought to you by Jayde Couldwell and Sophie Pearce!

    Bumpie Group Chat (unfiltered) - Guess who’s back together?!

    This week Soph pulls off the ultimate surprise - joining Jayde in person for the first time in 12 months to record the last episode of the year!  Back in the same room, we reflect on what it’s been like recording long-distance, what it's like for Soph being back in her hometown and just how different the energy feels when they’re face to face again.  We also dive into the next stages of parenthood, with Jayde reflecting on the reality of heading into parenting a high schooler and how quickly this chapter has arrived. Together, they talk about evolving identities as mums, and why the 'just you wait' conversation surrounding parenting teenage girls isn't always accurate...
