10. What I Wish I and All Mothers Knew Before We Had a Baby


Listen Later

Did you hope that motherhood would be bliss? But found that as soon as you got pregnant, other made jokes about the lack of sleep you'll get and how much freedom you'll lose?

It can be hard to navigate what to expect. Should you expect a joyful feeling once you give birth and meet your baby. Or is your life never going to be the same and you'll miss what life used to be like.

In this weeks episode I break down what I wish mothers expected before having a baby.

This episode is for you if you're hoping to one day have a family, or you're a new mother trying to make sense of how different being a mother is to what you expected.

I share what I wish I would have known before I had a baby.

This episode is not a negative podcast about the challenges that come. Nor is it an attempt to ask you to think positively and pretend the challenges don't exist.

It's actually a frank conversation about the various ways being a parent can change your life, so that you realise that it's normal to feel any struggles that arise. And to help you think about getting the best resources and support for you to more easily enjoy the experience.

I created this podcast to help you know that you're not alone in any of the challenges you experience, and to share with you tips, tools and strategies to lower your stress levels, frustration and sadness, and increase your joy, presence and love for mothering.
