After the safe arrival of her second baby, Poppy, Lil Bryant was anxious to return home from hospital to the peace and sanctuary of Mount Doreen Station - some 400km northwest of Alice Springs. Eagerly awaiting her return was her toddler son Dawson and hubbie Sam, along with Lil's beloved outback 'station family' of employees. But just nine days after Poppy's birth, Lil awoke in the middle of the night and immediately knew that 'something wasn't right'. Still half asleep, she turned on the bathroom nights and was greeted with a confronting sight. Lil was experiencing a significant Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) - and everyone at the station that night would have to work together to keep the terrified young Mum alive. ***Thanks so much for listening to this episode of the Flying Doctor Podcast.

This week I am over the moon to be joined by Bianca Sprague from Bebo MiaImagine having a support system that empowers you through every stage of parenthood, from preconception to the early days of postpartum. Bianca and I talk about the impact doulas have on birthing individuals and families. She explains the role of a good doula; how doulas offer nonjudgmental, continuous support, enabling parents to make informed decisions and navigate the often overwhelming landscape of pregnancy and childbirth.We also talk about the vital advocacy role doulas play in medical settings. We explore the fear surrounding medical statistics and the crucial support doulas provide in helping parents trust their intuition and make measured decisions during labor. Looking back on the 2020 pandemic, we discuss the detrimental effects of excluding doulas from birthing spaces and emphasize the long-term benefits of trauma-informed, compassionate care.As we delve into family dynamics, Bianca also talks about the crucial role doulas play in mediating prenatal conversations and managing generational parenting practices. We explore how doulas help navigate the often stressful involvement of grandparents and other family members, ensuring a harmonious postpartum environment. And finally, we discuss the expansive training opportunities available for those interested in becoming doulas, highlighting a comprehensive 17-week program designed to empower future doulas with the knowledge and confidence to support their clients effectively.Bianca is an absolute marvel in the doula world and if you've ever considered a change in career, or doula training in general, then I would look no further.You can find Bianca and Bebomia in all the usual places;Their websiteInstagram,FacebookAnd if you're getting a course on Bebomia use Code HPNB15 to get 15% off (as always, I get no commision and no referral cut).Email peter@healthypostnatalbody.com if you have any questions or comments or want me to interview a specific person As always; HPNB still only has 5 billing cycles.

It's been such a wonderful start to 2024, seeing women progress and feel confident with their movement, core and pelvic floor! So, this week I'm taking on the role of Easter bunny and spreading the love!Too many people STILL cue navel to spine to activate their core and feel demotivated with 'lazy glutes'. No, no, no. Let's get educated and empowered to move in a way that supports and strengthens! As a population, we are largely switched off, stressed and disconnected. We expect to jump into great movement patterns when we exercise, but it takes focused unpicking of habits, followed by re-education and practice of new ones in order for the magic to happen!We need to connect with and restore the breath, to enable the pelvic floor to brace the core... and then bring in a whole glorious symphony of bio-mechanical shifts... that enable the body to move in a way that feels good, supported and ultimately stronger! This is what I passionately try to deliver in each and every class I host. And, whilst I'm taking a break this Easter, I'm treating you to test out the MembersHub FREE for access to 100's of my classes until April 8th 2024... plus if you are super speedy, you can join Fridays LIVE class at 8.45GMT! Can't make it live? Don't worry, within the MembersHub I upload each class, so you can hit play that evening when it suits you! Keen to jump in.... Its www.FitFannyAdams.com/EASTER for your free 18 day trial and a £24pcm should you decide to continue. OR www.FitFannyAdams.com/USEASTER for $30 pcm if you prefer the USD option! Questions or problems logging in? Just drop me an email sarahjane@FitFannyAdams.comAnd who knows, maybe I will see you live on the mat April 8th! x Sj

Hello beautiful ones! I am so excited to share this month's interview with Lucy Jones with you. I think it might be one of my favourite episodes ever: our conversation was so rich and so full of the kinds of things I think we *really* need to be talking about when it comes to matrescence and motherhood. I started following Lucy in the early days of writing her new book, Matrescence: On the Metamorphosis of Pregnancy, Childbirth and Motherhood. I was totally captivated by the ecological lens she applied to the transition to motherhood. It was so much like my own perpsective and experience that I felt I'd found a kindred spirit. Lucy's book is one of the first on the experience of matrescence, and it is a raw and riveting account of her own metamorphosis as well as a cultural critique about modern motherhood. As we near the close of registration for the 2023 Season of MotherSHIFT and The Village, I'm delighted to be able to share this conversation with the many of you who are also walking this path of matrescence and matrescence-support. Here's some of what Lucy and I talk about in this episode: > The rarely spoken-of and yet increasingly common ecological awakening that so many new mothers have – and Lucy's personal experience of leaning into her relationship with the living world as she traversed her own matrescence. > The things no one ever fucking told us about motherhood, including the societal expectations of motherhood versus the realities so many of us face. We talk about ideologies around birth and mothering and how they deny us the opportunity to feel "normal" in these richly complex and usually paradoxical experiences. > The absence of modern-day rite and ritual to support us through matrescence, and how we must engage in the act of culture creation in order to reclaim these. > How liberal feminism lets mothers down, and how motherhood revolutionizes our relationship with work (and capitalism). > The untapped power of matrescence to radicalize us and poise us to advocate for social change (the biggest FUCK YES of this whole episode!). I loved this interview so much, and I hope you enjoy tuning in!

Are you pregnant? Or wanting to support someone close to you who is? Then look no further than today's episode. There is so much emphasis on the pregnancy and everything that baby needs once they arrive, but what about the mother?
