This podcast has been like cold water on a hot day, I feel nurtured and seen throughout the discussions. I have learned so much and feel connected to a body of women who are in the same season as me - what a gift
I’ve listened to the first few episodes of the Motherness podcast and have thoroughly enjoyed the real and uncensored fourth trimester experiences of interviewees. These mothers honestly, and in some cases heartbreakingly, share their experiences of miscarriages, labour, sleep (or lack of), breast and bottle feeding, bonding and postpartum depression. Not having many Mum friends I found listening to these stories and experiences made my feel less alone in my own fourth trimester experience.
Sounds like this podcast will fill in the gaps of traditional antenatal education and allow are splintered community to reconnect over a common journey. I’m currently studying to become a postpartum doula hence why I stumbled upon Motherness.
I just love this podcast so much. The host Skye is so gentle and full of empathy in her questions and responses . It's truly beautiful
I have really enjoyed this podcast during my pregnancy. I love hearing the honesty and different experiences of the women and Skye does a great job interviewing them and asking thoughtful questions.
Absolutely love this Podcast!!
I’m halfway through my pregnancy and hearing the stories of all the mothers and the experts is truly such a blessing on my journey thus far. I am so grateful I was recommended to listen. It’s provided such a holistic perspective about the fourth trimester. Thank you so much. I’ll be continuing to listen to the podcast throughout the rest of my pregnancy, and look forward to returning back to some of my favourite episodes. I’ve been recommending the podcast to all my friends as they embark on the... more
Really enjoy listening to Skye & her guests each week. Skye’s always well prepared/researched & can tell that this community means a lot!
Knowing you’re not alone in the fourth trimester and beyond is priceless. Skye has such a wonderful way of sharing mamas and experts stories and advice. Highly recommend for all mamas and mamas to be.
Beautiful poddy giving new mummies much needed reassurance, comfort, support, advice and love by sharing experiences. Recommend to anyone with a new babe or one on the way.
It’s stories like these that connect us as mothers and help us feel less isolated in our most vulnerable season of life. The expert episodes also provide valuable information and advice!
I’ve found this podcast really informative and interesting. I’m 30 weeks pregnant and starting to think about what life might be like with a newborn - I recommend it for new mums and mums to be!
Very informative and helpful for new mums.
This podcast is so real and engaging. It shows mothers the raw truth behind the fourth trimester. I listened saying to myself that is exactly how I felt I’m so glad I’m normal. This is a must listen to for all new mums / mums to be !!
This is absolutely brilliant! Making mums feel not alone, normal for having an unsettled baby and not being able to do anything other than feed. Hits the nail on the head so many times with what life with a newborn is like. Cannot wait to hear more!
