Beyond the Bump

Welcome to Episode 233 of Beyond the Bump! Today, we're chatting with Tracey from Holistic Sleep Mumma. This time around, we're diving into the world of coping with sleep deprivation without going down the sleep training route. We'll explore those in-between options, because hey, you don't have to suffer through exhaustion, and you don't have to jump straight into sleep training either. There's a middle ground, and we're here to help you find it!

Hope you enjoy this episode!

BEHIND THE BUMP - In today’s very special season finale we sit down with Ceci Jeffries, and ask her all the questions you want to know about emotional health when trying to conceive yourself, and how to help your friend who is going through a rough time when TTC!

What is a good response to “at least you know you can get pregnant”?

How can we emotionally take care of ourselves after bad news: a negative test, a failed transfer, a miscarriage?

How does secondary infertility feel different to primary?

How can we keep our intimacy/sex life going when dealing with prolonged TTC?

How can we cope in the TWW?

What is the best way to support a friend in the trenches?

What’s the most considerate way to share your pregnancy news with a friend who is struggling to fall pregnant?

And so much more!

Hosts: La & Sophie

A huge thank you to all our incredibly brave guests this season, and our legendary, supportive audience - the bumpies! We will be back after this short break!

Welcome to Episode 231 of Beyond the Bump! Today, we're chatting with Liv Brown from Rattle Style. We've had lots of Bumpies asking for an episode on postpartum and mom style, so we're excited to dive in — we discussed general fashion and gathered practical style tips. Plus, we had the chance to choose our top three style words and received a ton of fun tips along the way. 

We hope you enjoy this episode!

Welcome to Episode 227 of Beyond the Bump! In today's episode, Nick and I took a unique approach as we delved into the mental load Fair Play Cards.

We'll provide a proper update on our progress once we've had more time with it, but I must say, it's already making a world of difference. Although having said this, my plants are looking a little limp, so we may need to redistribute that card (haha!). But aside from that, things have been going very well and I can’t wait to do this with Jayde and Harry soon. 

It's important to remember that every family's dynamics vary, but our experience has been positive, and we're excited to share it with you. Here's to hoping you find it as beneficial as we have!
