Join us as we hubble, bubble, toil, and trouble our way through aspects of midwifery, birth, lactation, and womanhood. We tackle and discuss a variety of topics within the sphere of womanhood, birth, and lactation and what this entails in today's society. We want to be able to share in the strengths of women gathering together and being more informed, for their birth, their feeding experience, and the transition into knowing ourselves better. This is the podcast to connect us as a greater circle...

My postpartum companion!

I have loved this podcast for years and now love listening during my second postpartum. It’s entertaining, fun, research based and empowering. A must listen for ANY woman.

Direction towards Mothers

User81591610/31/2024

I enjoy some of these podcast episodes but I was really hopeful the labor pause ep would be directed more towards mothers, or periodically. It’s important for us too to understand how to better redirect our focus and comfortability. How do we get past the uncomfortable, the pauses, how do we naturally progress. What is your feedback? Because of being pushed in the birth center to hurry along I ended up in the hospital with 3rd degree tears. I want to understand how to reclaim my birth power and not live in fear. Help direct towards our mothers too; we need it!

Wonderful!

What an incredible pod! Anyone who is pregnant and their partners should get a chance to hear the wisdom from these three. Thankyou. This podcast is a healing balm that helps us remember the power and capacity of our own bodies.

Stellar episode!

This episode was extremely helpful and informative . here in the US so many moms get home from a hospital birth with absolutely no resources to lactation consultant. If they even knew about nipple shields, it could get them through until they could find someone. When I teach couples prenatally, I suggest that they become familiar with nipple shields and since they are so inexpensive to have a few around before the birth just in case. Thank you for this episode. It was so great.
