How will I be a mum when I can’t even control my own emotions?
In this 'Let's Chat' episode, we talk with Katie about the added complexity a diagnosis, initially of depression and anxiety, then bipolar disorder, has on pregnancy.A mental health issue is daunting enough for most people but Katie had also just moved to a new town without her usual supports.
Katie speaks so truthfully about her early feelings of whether she should even be a mum and how, with the right treatment, she got to the other side.
It is a really insightful and considered chat, essential listening to anyone who either has mental health issues or is a support person, and who are going through the big beautiful journey of becoming MAMA.

This is a "Let's Chat" story that we hope EVERYONE listens to.
Amy tells Dr Pat and Brigid her story of getting pregnant with a history of endometriosis and ulcerative colitis. We talk about, in practical detail, the supports she put in place to help maintain her mental health.
Then the next part of Amy's story is VITAL information for everyone. We dive into a birth complication that is a common fear, a postpartum haemorrhage or PPH.
Amy has so much to share about how she felt immediately post birth when after birthing her baby, she knew something was just not right. She talks about what her partner, Chris did to cope when she was separated from newborn George and how she was able to process a stressful time in her birth.
We love these 'Let's Chat' episodes with Dr Pat in the room. He helps listeners understand the complexity of what happens when someone has a postpartum haemorrhage so the story Amy tells is complemented with a layer of expertise, experience and evidence that is often missing in pregnancy and birth stories.
PPH is not a rare event. With PPH happening in 1-5% of all births, listening to this podcast will give the listener the knowledge and confidence to talk to their provider about how they would manage a PPH so together, as a team, you can make deeply informed decisions about your care.

Today Brigid talks with Clinical Psychologist, Dr Kylie McKenzie about mental health during the perinatal period.
In our discussion we explore the natural emotional spectrum, from the anticipated joys to the often-unspoken anxieties and depressions that can accompany new parenthood. We tackle the tough questions, like distinguishing between postnatal depression and the more common baby blues, and share proactive tips for managing well-being, including the importance of setting personal boundaries and maintaining good mental health practices.
Finish this episode feeling equipped and empowered to confidently make informed choices for your parenting journey. Dr. McKenzie imparts wisdom on handling unsolicited advice, reaffirms the importance of self-care, and discusses how to support partners facing mental health challenges. Join us for a conversation that's more than just talk—it's a guide to embracing the beautiful, messy, and transformative experience of becoming a parent.

What happens next after receiving a diagnosis of endometriosis? For some people trying for a baby, endometriosis changes very little about their fertility, pregnancy and birth. For some, like Hayley, it means a very different and sometimes difficult journey.
Can I have a baby with endometriosis?Is getting pregnant different with endometriosis?Am I still fertile if I have endometriosis?Is pregnancy high risk if you have endometriosis?What happens if you lose both fallopian tubes?Does endometriosis impact the success of IVF?
In this 'Let's Chat' episode, we talk to Hayley about her history of endometriosis, laparoscopic surgeries, 5 pregnancies including 2 ectopic pregnancies, loss of both fallopian tubes, IVF and a pregnancy with Gestational Diabetes.
What Hayley showed though every part of her story is how she kept going, even when her odds were diminished. It is a really positive story about her resilience, her faith in herself and how being informed helps you understand your options and ultimately helps you to make informed decisions.
