Pregnancy is a momentous time in a woman's life, our bodies are dipped into a rollercoaster of hormonal changes and the physical and psychological adaption that takes place is huge. Mental health is thankfully being discussed more in pregnancy than in previous generations but there is still an air of taboo that surrounds this subject and it is so important we break those barriers down to support women. On this week's episode I am joined by fellow midwife Tessa Van Der Vord, who is a specialist NHS Mental Health Midwife and can be found on Instagram as @mentalhealth_midwife. We are going to discuss the why's, how's and what's of pregnancy mental health and help women realise they are absolutely not alone in any struggles they may face on this journey. Tessa is a registered midwife and has been working for the NHS for the past 12 years. Prior to this, she trained as a midwife in Manchester and then moved home - working at a London hospital ever since. She has worked in most areas of midwifery but then settled into a specialist mental health post in 2016. In November 2020, Tessa gave birth to her first baby (Rupert - “Roo”) and experienced being pregnant and becoming a parent in a global pandemic. For many reasons, this journey was a huge learning curve for Tessa and it has had an influence on her practice in many ways. Tessa is in the process of returning to work and is really looking forward to working with pregnant people and their families again.

We've finally finish a whole series so we wanted to do a victory lap wrap up! Rick and Michal talk about their experience with the series and bring back an old friend.
Today Zoe speaks to specialist midwife Tessa Van Der Vord, also known as ‘The Mental Health Midwife'. Tessa opens up about suffering with severe anxiety when pregnant with her son, as those who work in mental health are not immune to experiencing their own difficulties. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tessa wasn't too sure on what she wanted to do when she ‘grew up' and became a midwife almost by fluke! She had a friend whose mum was a midwife and it was listening to her stories that inspired her to go into midwifery. Tessa is a specialist midwife in mental health. Which means she has experience of working with different disciplines, teams and supports women with a history of or with current mental health needs. Because Tessa has been surrounded by friends and family that have had issues with fertility and pregnancy she always had a worry that she would too have problems. Tessa became pregnant just after she got married, she found out very early in the pregnancy but at her 7 week scan was told to ‘prepare for the worst'. Tessa knew logically the pregnancy was early so she shouldn't have ‘got her hopes up' but what mother doesn't think, plan and dream about their baby when they find out they are pregnant? After a week wait she found out that the embryo was fine and doing brilliantly. She felt great at first but then the anxiety started to creep back in. At 9 weeks Tessa had a bleed, the embryo was ok but she kept having bleeds and all of these things kept adding layers and layers to her anxiety. Often when we suffer from mental health issues, especially for the first time, it's hard to know when and if you need help and support. Being a midwife, Tessa convinced herself that all the things she had seen and dealt with would happen to her. She had so much anxiety around all aspects of pregnancy and birth. It also affected her being able to bond with her baby at the start. If any of Tessa's friends listen to this episode she says they would be surprised to hear how severe her anxiety was. In the future if Tessa suffers again she has vowed to be more open and transparent about how she is feeling with others. Tessa's top mum hack for others is to accept any kind of help you can in the early weeks, create strong relationships with other mothers and be kind. BEST MOMENTS “Many of her closest friends still do not know the extent of what she went through” “Wow those hands have delivered babies, what an amazing thing to do” “As a midwife, you know about all these things that can happen and I just wanted to check” “Doing all the things I tell women not to do, going on google, to find things” “I was in awe of my body” “It takes a village to raise a mother to raise a child” VALUABLE RESOURCES www.petalscharity.org www.tommys.org www.arc-uk.org www.sands.org.uk ABOUT THE GUEST Tessa Van Der Vord @mentalhealth_midwife ABOUT THE HOST Zoe Cresswell Devoted mother of two (and a big hairy dog), UK trained midwife, doula and personal trainer, specialising in pre and postnatal fitness.

In folklore across the Nordic world, the human soul or ‘hug’ is a force to be reckoned with and is intimately connected with the body. Indeed, if a person were to be somehow separated from their hug, perhaps through magic, they were said to have been ‘hugstjalet’ or ‘hug-stolen - a folk explanation for people who showed abnormal behaviour and psychological disorders. The soul, or ‘hug’, is a source of power and manipulation of the hug is the source of all magic. The hug could free itself of the body for various periods of time and could live a life outside the body. Unconsciously or consciously, the hug can be used to effect the material world and can even become a supranormal entity, one of the most terrifying examples being the mare, the nightmare personified, a being who puts immense pressure on the chest of their sleeping victim. This projection of the ‘hug’ is considered the cause for the frightening experience of sleep paralysis. The ‘hug’ can also be used in what is a kind of Scandinavian astral projection. The Vord (or Swedish vård) is not only the doubled presence of every individual but the dream-soul that can separate from the sleeping body. A Swedish folklorist defined the vård as ‘a being attached to the individual’ which ‘sometimes reveals itself either as a glimmer or in the form of the person as a second self, a phantom. The presence of the vård can be felt both by other people and the individual when he is out of doors at night.’ Welcome to Series 3: Folklorica Nordica. As these autumn days descend into the dark days of winter, we will journey into subterranean and spiritual realms - through the folklore of the Nordic world. We will encounter the shamans, the subterranean beings, the wise-folk and healers, and the trolls and giants of Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, the Faroe Islands and Finland. In these northern lands, we will encounter a fascinating body of tales retold to evoke not only the original magic of the stories but also the beautiful and mysterious regions they come from.
