Nothing can prepare you for the moment you meet your baby, because when your baby is born, a mother is too.

In this episode our host Sinead O'Moore talk to Julie Millen from juliebyoga about the birth of her first baby just 6 weeks ago. Julie is right in the midst of the 4th trimester and the transformation from who she was to who she now is. 

We talk about her journey to birth in the midst of this pandemic, about the love the anxiety and the unknown and about how despite never having a moment to herself some parts can feel super lonely. 

Newborn days are intense, intense love, intense exhaustion, an intense transformation so take it slow, eat, stay hydrated and most of all lets stop expecting so much of ourselves – because although its incredible, its also really hard, and that’s ok. everymum the podcast was created for one reason - to get honest about parenthood. The joys, the surprises, the fears, the moments that form us and the ones we don’t hear people talk enough about – like in this episode about those first newborn days.
