EP 22: Finale with Rachael Calvert & "Ask Rach Anything", Farts, Friendships, Falling Outs, Getting Fired, Boobs and Intimacy, Miscarriage/Chemical Pregnancy, Mum Guilt & More Artwork

PUMPED Podcast

When it comes to the conversation around Motherhood, pregnancy and birth often take centre stage, but ask any mum and they’ll tell you - it’s after your baby is born that the fun really begins! Hosted by dynamic Sydney-based duo Hayley Flowers and Sophie Lavender, PUMPED is a podcast that explores the challenges of the Fourth Trimester and life thereafter. They unpack the messy love that is Motherhood in a safe, humorous and fun space. From bleeding bum holes, to leaking bladders. This podcast shares it all! PUMPED has given a voice to the often forgotten issues that particularly affect mums including domestic violence, feeding challenges, the battle for legal guardianship, birth trauma and the struggle to conceive. They have created a nurturing and authentic space for mums to laugh, cry, share and be heard by likeminded women in the wild ride that is Motherhood.

Love Hays and Soph xxx

Soph: Before we begin, we are grateful to live and work on land that holds the stories of the Dreamtime. We pay my respects and honour the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past, present & emerging and acknowledge the stories, traditions and living cultures of our First Nations People.

Hays/Soph and Rach unpack their - Pump up and downs for the week...

Hays: Pump up- Noosa- sunshine and ocean swims and huge hill hikes

Down: Flu- Gastro- sickness and rain and Jude intolerance to lactose due to gastro- no idea that this happened and sorting childcare- stressful AF (but may use this for Rach Tom ep)

Soph: Pump us is Perth and pump down is - sleep!

Rach: Up-Murph has started doing a 1.5-2 hour sleep in the morning. Very new for us! She’s not a sleeper but has now become one. Still swear by Glow Dreaming. AAANNNND Storytime at the local library. Cutest thing ever! Down-Murphy wakes between midnight and 1:30 for about an hour and there is nothing I can do to stop it. HAAAAALLLLP!
