E96. Motherhood Minds and Bodies with Chloe Madeley

Midwife Pip Podcast ·

2023/02/20

Your body after you have had a baby is different, it looks different, it feels different, it may not even feel like yours right away and our minds, well they are practically rewired. The postpartum changes are often considered negatively or as something we must correct urgently. But how about we respect this journey, accept our feelings and allow our postpartum bodies and minds to become the strongest versions of ourselves instead of punishing them or outing them down. Easier said than done

Midwife Pip Podcast ·

2023/02/08

We have all heard the term ‘hands on dad’ or ‘modern father’ and we are thankfully existing in a world where dads are being encouraged more and more to be involved in the whole journey through pregnancy and parenthood. What I see so often as a midwife is a lack of confidence amongst new and expectant and understanding about how they can practically and emotionally be involved and supportive in the family dynamic holding dads back from reaching their fatherhood goals This week I am joined by Nigel

2023/01/23

Crying and Baby Sleep With Calm and Bright Sleep Support- Eve and Gem If you are anything like me then hearing your baby cry is like someone pulling your heart from inside your body. Your gut instinct is likely to instantly pick them up, cuddle comfort, feed or rock. There are two notions that seem to exist- one in that this is the right thing to do to respond to your baby and develop deep and secure attachments and then there is the idea that perhaps we shouldn’t rush in, maybe we should even let

E84. Why Hypnobirthing doesn’t need to be so Hippy...

Midwife Pip Podcast ·

2022/11/28

Honestly, I was there once too- heard the term Hypnobirthing and imagined all the marbles, crystal balls and birthing in the forest- all very hippy style and niche. Now if that’s your thing then of course that’s cool too but actually Hypnobirthing is absolutely for you if you are expecting a baby regardless of how you may plan to birth, and it need not be hippy at all. On this week’s episode I am joined by fellow Midwife, mum of 4, and founder of @thebumptobabychapter Beth Kitt. Beth often speaks

As a mum, there is nothing I wouldn’t do to protect my little boy and I was honestly shocked to hear statistics like at least 1 child under 5 years dies from an accident of which over 75% take place in the home.

Midwife Pip Podcast ·

2022/11/14

Oh motherhood, you think you are prepared and then it actually happens and wow it is a rollercoaster.

Midwife Pip Podcast ·

2022/10/17

The first trimester is arguably the most physically and psychologically challenging trimester in pregnancy yet it is shrouded in secrecy leaving women feeling alone and isolated in their anxiety and symptoms. Worst of all, it means that women are left dealing with the grief of miscarriage behind closed doors. This week we are talking about a topic I am super passionate about- why is it we are so secretive about the first trimester and is this right? From discussing taboo subjects on her You Tube
