Beyond the Bump

After both loving following Bec @pinatafruitgirl on TikTok, we knew we had to have her bubbly energy and articulate take on life and motherhood here on the podcast! After a quick circle-jerk fangirling over each other, we jumped straight into it…

The beauty and challenges in parenting for Bec

How life looked for Bec before children growing up on a working fruit farm

The tragic death of her first love at 25 years old and how messy grief can be

Finding love after loss

Is it hyperemesis gravidarum or not? We all share our stories with how dark and all-consuming HG can be both physically and mentally

Life in the family business and how Bec approaches her busy role 

Bec’s take on questioning a 3rd child through the lens of HG and the load on her support network

Being a villager and the importance of multi-generational support

We are back with the Bumpie Group Chat and honestly, we are a bit shakey and nervous. Why? Because we have recorded our sing-off and have mild regrets. If we aren’t back next week, it’s because we are either on tour or hiding in shame! 

On top of our Taylor Swift renditions, we discuss…

Jayde’s low energy but getting by! Just in time for her minor day surgery

Nail art hacks for low maintenance vibes

Sophie needs help with the dummy… not hers, Pearl’s! Jayde shares her thoughts and Bumpies give advice, too

Jayde gives an update on Yumi’s nightly performance after our recent episode about not dulling your child’s big personality (while still toning it down a tad)

We share our singing recordings……..

We have brought back a Beyond the Bump favourite, Gen Muir (parenting coach, social worker and mum to 4 boys) to help us out with a personal parenting pickle. How do you raise children with BIG personalities without dulling their sparkle? We discuss…

Jayde shares her own worries about how this dynamic plays out in her household

Gen dives into how our own childhood may be triggered by our children

Introverted vs extroverted personalities and how they may exist within a family

How do we set a firm boundary even when their big personality rebels against it?

Using communication strategies to help unpack your child’s feelings or behaviours

Catering to the individual personalities and needs of your family so that we can connect with less resentment

When a behaviour is actually a call for help

Have we confused caring about our kids' feelings with thinking we are responsible for fixing them?

The importance of being kind to yourself as a self-regulation tool

The Bumpie Group Chat (Unfiltered) is back and we are living up to the unfiltered part of the name 😅 We jump straight into…

Sophie made the trek through Melbourne Airport solo with the 3 kids and the price she’s paying comes in the form of hemorrhoids

Harry and Jayde had their second couple’s counseling session and came in hot off the back of a communication blunder

A new therapy technique was put into practise and worked! 

Soph and Nick realised they’d missed an important assembly at school - relatable!

Jayde is following Sophie’s musical hobby hunt - will she be the next Beyonce? And are we having a BTB Sing Off!?

Abi, mum of 3 and a friend of Sophie’s, is speaking with us about her story. In this very emotional and vulnerable episode, Abi describes her journey into motherhood, the day their world shifted after a fall devastatingly impacted their newborn and the family’s road to recovery. Despite everything, Abi’s sense of humour and optimism had us in awe! We discuss…

Moving from the UK to Australia and how to keep the grandparents involved 

How an ADHD diagnosis transpired after becoming a mum

Being a first time parent and how bitter-sweet hindsight can be

How the intrusive thought so many new parents have became a reality and the terrifying moments that unfolded

How guilt felt selfish and Abi’s strength in dealing with the accident

Navigating their daughter’s recovery 

When a random pregnancy test turned into their next big chapter (much earlier than expected!)

How life is now looking for Abi’s family
