BIG IDEA 2 “Access to quality education eases fears” (16:01) The closed Facebook group is where members have a close interaction with Edwina, and other women's health experts such as health physios, lactation consultants and obstetricians.

This week is Perinatal Mental Health Week, so what better time to look at this issue affecting so many parents in your life. If you have welcomed a baby into your family you know about the challenges that brings as well as the love and the joy, but if you're feeling like it's all becoming too much.Edwina Sharrock is a midwife who experienced perinatal depression after the birth of her second child and Kate Arndell works with parents as a RAMHP coordinator of the Hunter New England region in NSW. They share their experiences and information about what you need to know about perinatal depression and anxiety.

"I should know how to do this" - it's the catch cry of so many mamas as they navigate motherhood. We have grown up with The Maternal Mandate - an assumption that because you are aa woman you should a) want to have a baby, b) find it easy and natural to become pregnant, birth naturally and breastfeed easily, and c) love every minute of it. And it's something every single woman out there has had to contend with at some stage. But if you also happen to have been trained in some form to support babies, mothers or children, this extra pressure of 'should know how to do this' is amplified. Midwives tell themselves birth will be easy; Child educators and carers believe teaching and playing with their children will be natural;Doctors and nurses go into it knowing the physical demands of motherhood, but never expect the personal transformation and questioning. Welcome to matrescence! It's the same for all of us. In this week's podcast episode, I speak with Edwina Sharrock - a mum of two, registered nurse and midwife, who was shocked and ashamed when she unexpectedly developed perinatal anxiety after the birth of her second child. In this episode, we talk candidly about the level of 'shoulds' professional women put on themselves when entering motherhood - no matter what skills and training you have in your pre-baby life - and how our preparation for motherhood needs to be more honest, raw and real if we are to really prepare a woman for the transformation of birth and babies.

Breastfeeding doesn't come naturally to everyone. In fact, most women struggle at some point in their breastfeeding experience. And yet we don't talk a lot about how challenging feeding a baby can be. According to recent research by Philips Advent a third of Australian mums are too embarrassed to talk about their feeding issues. So why, in an age where we embrace the expression 'breast is best', are women struggling to talk about the reality of breastfeeding? Edwina Sharrock is a midwife and founder of Birthbeat. She talks about her own challenges with breastfeeding and why women still struggle today.
