Ever heard the phrase ‘sleeps like a baby’ and laugh? As parents, sleeping like a baby can mean little to no sleep at all, but it might not have to be that way…There are a lot of misconceptions and misinformation around the concept of sleep training which prompted host Aisling Keenan to chat to sleep coach Anneka Muir. They talk about the science around sleep, how much things have changed in terms of our knowledge about how young children and babies sleep, and what exactly happens when you hire someone to help you with it. It goes without saying that whatever works for you and your family is what’s best, but if sleep isn’t working, this episode could be one that helps you!

You're having triplets - Ali Dee

In this episode our host of everymum the podcast, Sinead O’Moore sits down to talk with Jean-Marié Stander about the fertility challenges she and husband CJ Stander faced once they began trying to conceive. At just 26 years old Jean-Marié was told that she had early onset menopause and that she and her husband CJ, the Irish Rugby International and Munster player might not conceive the family that they so hoped for.Away from South Africa and now calling Limerick home, Jean Marie and CJ learned that just like 1 in 6 couples our fertility is not something that any of us can take for granted. Throughout we talk about how she had no idea she had endometriosis, her experience on hormone treatment, undergoing IVF and she helps us all learn what to say and what not to say to couples about their plans to conceive.But this is a story with a very happy ending - a story of hope, of determination through disappointment, of the unspoken impact of fertility treatment and of the support that helped them to both keep the faith as Jean-Marié speaks to us while 36 weeks pregnant and ready to finally meet their baby girl.Our fertility health is not something we should ignore and I’m so grateful to Jean-Marié for sharing her experience with us all.We hope this episode helps anyone who is looking forward to starting or growing their much wanted family.For more on fertility support, visit the everymum Getting Pregnant area of everymum.ieJoin our everymum community today.

What I learned in the 1st year of motherhood

In this episode of everymum the podcast we sit down and talk to the inspirational Irish athlete Derval O’Rourke about how she has gone from running at the Olympics and World Championships to now running the marathon that is motherhood.Derval is a mum of 2 and passionate about supporting women stay fit and nourished with her health programme and website derval.ie and as a coach on RTE’s Ireland’s Fittest Family.Being an athlete has thought Derval the benefits of looking after our bodies, of allowing ourselves proper rest and care and that becoming a mother has thought her that women need better and more support during this intense phase of their lives – especially when it comes to breastfeeding and all the benefits it brings.We chat about how our identities can be rocked once we become mums. How Derval has had to accept that giving 70%-80% of herself right now is more than enough. How doing a TV shoot with a 3 month old can be overwhelming but achievable and how no matter how strong, fit or able you are – sometimes a car seat can literally beat you.We hope this episode helps anyone who is running their own motherhood marathon and reminds us all to take care of ourselves too. To read more about why we need to take better care of ourselves visit our wellbeing section on everymum.ie  Join our everymum community today.

I gave up work, not my ambition - Shoshannah Wood

Sarah Tobin

This episode discusses the loss of a baby - a pain that no parent should suffer, but sadly many do.The 9th to 15th October 2019 is baby loss awareness week where we remember the lives of babies lost in pregnancy or soon after birth.

Healing from baby loss - Sarah Tobin

Ranae Von Meding

No matter the journey you take into motherhood, every mum deserves a community of support and a tribe that has our back.In this episode of everymum the podcast, Ranae Von Meding shares her experience of using Reciprocal IVF with her wife Audrey to bring their two daughters into the world and how she discovered that as married same sex parents in Ireland, who used this form of IVF, that they do not both have equal legal rights to their daughters.Reciprocal IVF or, ‘Shared Motherhood’ is a really special form of IVF treatment where one mum supplies the egg and the other carries and births the baby. But in Ireland, this means that only the mum who birthed the baby has legal parental rights – while the mum who gave her egg and her genetic DNA does not.Ireland has taken huge steps in the last few years towards marriage and same sex equality and as we mark 2 years since the Marriage Referendum we want to shine a spotlight on a campaign aimed to achieve equal rights for all parents in Ireland – regardless of sex, sexuality or choice of fertility treatment.

Medicine and Motherhood - Dr. Laura GP

Deirdre Lundy

In Ireland 1 in 6 couples will experience some form of fertility challenge – with secondary infertility accounting for 60 percent of this. So you see, if you are trying to conceive and it’s not happening, please know that you’re not alone. This February on everymum we are putting our focus on caring for our fertility – physically, mentally and emotionally – because it matters so much and we believe that if we know more, talk more we can all support each other more.If you’ve been trying for 12 months and are under 35 or trying for 6 months and over 35 it’s a really good idea to start thinking about getting some answers – even if it just means you can feel some reassurance. We know that you might feel scared or intimidated, but really the best place to start is by talking to your GP. So we asked Dr. Deirdre Lundy a GP specialising in Women’s Health for over 30 years to join us on this week’s special fertility matters episode.Originally from the US Deirdre attended UCD medical school and never went back.She has worked for all the family planning clinics around Dublin, for the Irish College of General Practitioners in the Women’s Health department, is a member of the “Ask the “Experts” panel for GPBuddy and started and continues to works in the GP gynaecology clinics in the Rotunda, Coombe and National Maternity Hospitals. A regular guest on Elaine on Virgin Media One and part of the team at the Bray Women’s Clinic, Dr. Deirdre knows what we all need to know about our bodies and our fertility and here she shares this information with us all so that we can feel less in the dark– because our fertility matters.In this episode we learnWhy a GP can be the best starting placeThe simple blood tests that can tell you a lot – Day 21 Progesterone, FSH, LH, AMHWhy it’s so important to test our partners fertilityThe impact undiagnosed STI’s are having on our fertilityHow IVF works and when couples should take this big stepFertility success abroadAnd why couples shouldn’t wait and worry but to take that first move and talk about their fertility to a Dr and to the people who love them.This episode is kindly supported by WaterWipesTo learn more about your fertility matters, visit the dedicated content on everymum.ie https://www.everymum.ie/getting-pregnant/fertility/ Hosted on Acast.

Jen Hatton

Jen Hatton, Irish actor, comedian, one half of the  Unpopular Opinion podcast and now mother of baby Bobby joins us on everymum the podcast.From annoying questions we are all asked while waiting for baby to arrive to c-sections and post natal pre-eclampsia plus unexpected moments of chaos, there is power in seeing the funny side to life as a new mum.The first 8 weeks of motherhood is a learning curve and in this episode we talk about that post partum doubt and overwhelm, we laugh about the silly overthinking, how the days disappear, how babies know exactly when to interrupt our routines and how difficult it is to simply get out the front door.We talk about how having an online community has given Jen sound advice but that deep down we need to listen to ourselves and apply common sense.Becoming a parent is a huge transformation and there are many laugh or cry moments but the love runs deep and we really can all figure it out while seeing the funny side of life with a newborn.You can find Jen’s hilarious observations of life on her Instagram and youtubeIt’s a really special episode that we hope will help every new mum.Join our everymum community today, and follow everymum on Facebook and Instagrameverymum the podcast is proudly supported by WaterWipes Hosted on Acast.

The funny side of life with a newborn – Jen Hatton

Our little babies are so precious and even a minor illness can make every parent worry.But when its more serious, sometimes the most obvious sign is our own gut instinct.In this episode I sit down and talk with Orlaith Donlon as she shares her experience this year of trusting her gut feeling which was telling her that something was wrong with her little baby boy Rua.After noticing that Rua’s weight wasn’t coming on like her other children, Rua began to have obvious breathing recessions. Although happy and other wise healthy looking Orlaith knew something just was not right and with the support of her GP fought for the specialist attention he needed.As a mum of 4 and a trained midwife, Orlaith explains so kindly how it doesn’t matter how experienced you might feel, when something happens to your own child the emotional pain and weight of concern especially throughout this cold and flu season can be so heavy.We talk about out the fear and worst case scenario thinking when it became real, how she grieved for the carefree healthy life she assumed he would have, how so often she needed to release these feelings without being told “everything would be ok” and how she now understands the power of letting people show their love by accepting their help.We talk about how each and every one of us can protect those vulnerable in society by getting the flu vaccine and by washing our hands properly, about how when he stopped breathing all her CPR training went out the window in panic and how everyone in a community should know it so that we can all step in.How being honest with your other children about what’s going on can help ease their fears and how resting in that precious post partum days gave her the resilience and power to keep going over the last very difficult months.The only thing better than talking to Orlaith was seeing her little happy boy in her arms.
