NHM I GOT IT FROM MY MUMMA

Natalie Ebrill, International Baby Sleep Consultant, joins NHM to help us get our kids to sleep!  Natalie has dedicated her nursing career to learning and modelling holistic sleeping and settling strategies that provide real results – consistently. As a Registered Nurse and Child and Family Health Nurse with over twenty years of experience, Natalie saw too many sleep-deprived families that needed more practical care and information than the clinic visit provided. That is why she developed The Sleeping Baby System® and the Sleeping Toddler System. Also how to get your mojo back after kids with Michelle.  I Got it From My Mumma podcast is by NHM, produced by Newcastle Podcast Station, proudly sponsored by Snap Fitness, NurtureMe, Tiny Tutus, Tee Legal, Burton Automotive, NCR Blinds in support of Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation.

'I felt sick everytime he walked up the driveway', at a point some mother's have to make the tough choice that means for them to show up as mothers they have to walk out. The break up is so often discussed but not so much the grief surrounding the gut wrenchingly awful pain that comes with breaking up a family unit, knowing your kids will never wake up on Christmas morning again and run to greet their Mum and Dad with joy on their faces. We discuss this and Tendayi tells other women's stories of how they managed to make it through and get a fair settlement from previous partners that didn't want equality for their ex wives. You can reach out to Tee here confidentially anytime.  I Got it From My Mumma podcast is by NHM, produced by Newcastle Podcast Station, proudly sponsored by NurtureMe, Tiny Tutus, Tee Legal, Burton Automotive, NCR Blinds in support of Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With eighty thousand interactions from our NHM community online we know the struggle is real for so many Mothers who want to expand their families and fall pregnant again but experience real trouble. It can be heartbreaking and frustrating when you try so hard but you don't have success time after time. Here we talk Newcastle Hunter Mumma and fertility specialist to Dr Erin Fuller and deep dive into all your options when you've reached the point where you decide you need help.  Dr. Erin Fuller discusses fertility and secondary infertility in this episode. She explains that secondary infertility refers to the struggle to conceive a second or subsequent child after having had a previous pregnancy. Age is a significant factor in fertility, as a woman's egg quality and quantity decline over time. Dr. Fuller also discusses the option of freezing eggs for future use and the importance of diagnosing and addressing any underlying causes of infertility. Emotional and psychological factors can also play a role in fertility, and Dr. Fuller advises patients to not stress about being stressed. Secondary infertility is a common issue that affects many women. Stress and extreme exercise can impact fertility. Weight also plays a role, as both being underweight and overweight can reduce the chances of pregnancy. Emotional and psychological support is crucial for couples struggling with infertility. About 50% of patients who seek help from a fertility specialist are able to achieve pregnancy without undergoing IVF. Endometriosis is a prevalent condition that affects many women and can impact fertility. Diagnosis is challenging and often requires laparoscopy. Treatment options include surgery and medical management to suppress the menstrual cycle. Lifestyle changes and home remedies have limited evidence of effectiveness. Raising awareness and funding for endometriosis research and treatment is important. Takeaways Secondary infertility refers to the struggle to conceive a second or subsequent child after having had a previous pregnancy.

What do you say when someone asks " How are you going when going through Breast Cancer?" .........hang on, have you got 2 yrs to sit down and have a coffee with me?! Michelle Gray joins us to share her journey.  Michelle shares, diagnosed with Breast Cancer 2020 - I want to go deep, to express the psychological head games getting diagnosed with Breast Cancer can have on you. Through my own personal journey- What I felt, what I did to keep my spirits high and strong. Those that impacted me on my journey and had a profound effect on keeping my shit together. The highs, the lows, the laughs. The rollercoaster effect of mind, body and spirit. I want to be raw with my feelings. Techniques I used to stay calm in my most worrying moments, waiting on results. The effects it had on my family and friends. The good, the bad and the ugly. How do you cope when you are questioning your time on this earth, the shock of not knowing, no control. Thinking that the things you were controlling in your life before BC were important but soon realise that 99.9% of those things are fixable at any time! Shifting to draw on faith because the Big C is something you can't control, the fear of the uncontrollable. You just want that Crystal Ball so freakin bad!!!! You would chop your arms and legs off and hand them over if that could give you any type of guarantee [ I was on hands and knees pleading with Shanta to just do whatever to get me cancer free " Dont you know " I have 4 kids and a husband!" The shift in mindset........ A 38yr old woman, a Newcastle Mum, shocked, being thrown into a world never imagined, like a freight train going through a building unexpectedly, that was what I felt when being told I had BC...... " I feel like I'm in a bad dream" I said to the Sue, McGrath Nurse. Promising God over and over again that I would be a good person on this Earth if he got me Cancer Free. I'll live this life to the fullest, if you do this for me! Take my Breast! Take My Nipple, take my Lymph Nodes- Take any body part you want!!!! Sorry Big Man I'm here to stay! I want to help Cancer and Non Cancer People cope together. So carers and family can have some insight into a Cancer Patients mind. It's like at the time I split the world up into Cancer and Non Cancer people (hope that's ok to say?!LOL) I want the Non Cancer People to know the minds of Cancer People and bridge the gap of helplessness. If I help One Person cope through this journey and someone says to a Cancer Patient, "I listened to this Podcast the other day, Michelle Gray she had DCIS- Grade 3, 10cm Tumor in her Left Breast, Full Mastectomy- you should listen", then I'm happier than the day I got told I was Cancer Free!!!! Lets not do it alone........ lets not just smile at coffee and say Im going well, because that's Bullshit!  I Got it From My Mumma podcast is by NHM, produced by Newcastle Podcast Station, proudly sponsored by Burton Automotive, NCR Blinds in support of Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
