About the Host
Hi, I’m Kelly - a mum of 2 and Hypnobirthing teacher and Birth Educator. My story starts with the premature birth of my little girl. I was shell shocked and felt disappointed in the care I had received during my labour, that left me with a less an ideal birth experience. I started motherhood feeling lonely, overwhelmed and without the slightest clue of how to make things feel better. When I fell pregnant for the second time, I knew I had to take back control. I practised Hypnobirthing and built my knowledge around birth, going on to have an incredible and powerful birth to my son. But something clicked for me. I knew I wanted to help other women build up their knowledge so they could have better experiences too. This led me to train to become a Hypnobirthing teacher, and I have been helping women with my 5* rated course, to feel more supported and have better birth experiences since 2021. Through this work, I’ve met other incredible experts in the Motherhood space and have began to build up a bank of knowledge on how we can make motherhood feel less chaotic and more happy and empowering. I’ve seen and felt the highs and lows of birth and motherhood and I don’t think anyone should go through the journey alone. So welcome, to ‘The Motherhood Guide: Birth and Beyond’, where I combine my knowledge and experience to help you feel seen, heard, reassured and supported.

This episode is an insightful and powerful conversation with Emma, who shares her challenging experience of developing PTSD following birth trauma. Emma discusses the lack of awareness and understanding surrounding postnatal PTSD compared to more commonly discussed postnatal issues such as depression and anxiety. She highlights the importance of raising awareness to help others recognize symptoms and support those who may be experiencing similar challenges. Emma's story delves into her recovery journey, including her initial diagnosis, the therapy process (particularly focusing on EMDR therapy), and the support system that helped her through her recovery. The episode aims to educate listeners on postnatal PTSD, offer hope to those facing similar struggles, and encourage open conversations about difficult aspects of motherhood and post-birth recovery.

When it comes to birth, many are reluctant to create a birth plan out of fear of being disappointed if things don't go the way they expect. But does this actually help us avoid disappointment? Are you better to go with the flow and take birth as it comes? Here's what 3 years of experience working with women and preparing them for birth has taught me...

Grab a cuppa and let's catch up! In this chatty episode, I share the goings on of the February school break from slow mornings, work hacks in the soft play and even - the stars aligning allowing me to sleep off the dreaded mum flu without kids in tow! I share the things i've loved about the school holidays, but also the parts that have been tough.

In this episode I chat with Mandy Millar from Assertive Birth, who shares her very different birthing experiences with her 5 children, in which the latest was a freebirth. We also chat about the difficulties in navigating and birthing within the NHS system within the UK and how we can make sure we get the best out of the experience. Mandy also gives us some honest insight into life with 5 children. This is a really eye opening episode, and I really encourage you to listen to it even if you'd never plan a freebirth yourself!
You'll find Mandy over on www.instagram.com/assertivebirth

Big feelings, tantrums, meltdowns, whatever you call them - every parent experiences them! But here's my hot take. Slow down, find calm in the chaos first then start working on teaching them how to cope with their feelings. In this episode I give you easy, logical ideas on how to make those difficult behaviours children can sometimes display more manageable for you and them.

This week it's all about cesarean sections! I explain the difference between planned and unplanned C-sections, the importance of preparation and knowledge, and help dispel some misconceptions about c-sections. We talk about what the process of a c-section is like and highlight the significance of understanding and respecting birth preferences. There's a strong emphasis on focussing on the aspects you can control and I provide practical tips for handling the many different considerations we need to make for C-sections. This episode serves as a great resource for expecting mothers and partners to navigate through C-section births confidently and make well-informed decisions.

In this episode, we discuss why a majority of births are still taking place in medicalised settings despite evidence now showing that this has a negative, direct impact with the interventions we may be offered/may require in our birth experience.We address some common concerns and worries about home birth, and talk about how we can improve our chances of having a more positive birth experience by tailoring the birthing environment (wherever that is) to be more oxytocin friendly.
