    Our Honest Birth Prep Before Baby #3 (Fast Labour, Birth Pool & Mindset) Featuring Tom!

    This one in special! I sit down with my husband Tom to talk about preparing for the birth of our third baby!! We reflect on our previous births, the nerves that come with assuming things will go smoothly, and what surprised us most during labour. Tom shares what it’s really like being a birth partner and how learning about physiological birth has shaped the way he supports me. I also talk about how I’m preparing differently this time, focusing more on mindset, meditation and getting out of my head so I can fully experience the birth as a mum. A relaxed, honest conversation about birth preparation, partner support and welcoming another baby into our family. And a huge thank you to our sponsor, ⁠Bugaboo⁠, for making this episode of the Positive Pregnancy, Birth & Motherhood podcast. Check out the full range from Bugaboo ⁠here!

    For You and Your Birth Partner: A 20 Minute Labour Rehearsal - do this TOGETHER

    Bonus EP! The Guided Birth Rehearsal is designed for you and your birth partner to listen to together. Ideally, play it on loudspeaker and share the experience. If that’s not possible, listen separately and then come back together to talk about it. Avoid listening too late at night as it can be deeply relaxing. Find a calm space, sit or lie comfortably, and allow yourself to settle before pressing play. You’ll be guided to create mental images as a way of mentally preparing for birth. It’s also a powerful starting point for important conversations between you and your partner.

    No More Stressing About Sleep: Rachael from Hey Sleepy Baby on Night Waking and Temperament

    Can we just be honest? Nobody actually sleeps through the night! Not you, not me, not your baby, and that's completely normal. In this episode, I'm joined by Rachael from Hey Sleepy Baby and we get real about sleep patterns and why waking up in the night isn't the problem we've been told it is. We're talking about normal night waking and why your baby's temperament plays a huge role in their sleep patterns. She also shares practical ways to troubleshoot sleep issues. This one's for every knackered parent who's been told their baby "should" be sleeping through by now. Want to learn more about Rachael and Hey Sleepy Baby?

    Reclaiming Birth as Your Rite of Passage with Elaine Welteroth from the Birth Fund

    Somewhere along the way, we stopped seeing birth as a rite of passage and started treating it like a medical procedure. It's time to change that. In this episode, I'm chatting with Elaine Welteroth about her incredible journey from journalism to founding the Birth Fund, an organisation working to get midwifery care to families who need it most. We're diving into why midwifery care is so important, how the medical model of birth has let women down, and what it means to reclaim birth as a rite of passage rather than just another medical event. Elaine gets real about trusting your intuition during childbirth, choosing a birth team that truly supports you, and why surrendering to the process (not fighting it) can be one of the most empowering things you'll ever do.
