Hey Lifers!

Laura is back and she’s brought Poppy in so we can all hear about how Poppy entered the world! But firstly, we had a really scary moment with Delilah and the vets last week. There were mixed emotions, preparation for surgery and even a souvenir.

Laura shares how she was hiding a bit of anxiety about having her 3rd baby and how she was gearing herself up to be miserable for a year. She also speaks about how varied your experience can be based on the support you have around you and whether your baby sleeps and eats.

We chat about:

The difference between private and public birth
The Push It Real Good playlist
The song Poppy was birthed to
Laura’s induction and what she didn’t know about epidurals
How Poppy came out
The most horrifying part - the post birth poop
How Marlie Mae and Lola have adjusted to having another sister
What’s changed in Laura’s relationship with Matt
The difference in how mums and dads connect with newborns
What Laura didn’t expect
Not being able to swim post birth
Whether Laura feels as though her family is ‘complete’

Britt also opened up about how frustrating it is that she has not felt the ‘maternal pull’ that everyone says you will feel when the people who are closest to you have a baby. She speaks about feeling broken for not having this thing that is apparently the ‘most natural’ thing for women to experience.
