Beyond the Bump

As always, the Bumpie Group Chat is a rollercoaster but we know you’re alongside us for the ride, Bumpies! We vent about our current parenting pickles, we cry with pride about said children then wrap it up by searching for inspo on how to be better parents to our daughters. Wow. We dive into…

7 year olds… wtf?

Third child things… we are not okay!

We debut Yumi’s first single, Apple Sleeves and it’s a banger

Sophie had her IUD removed and discusses the ‘why’

Soph asked TikTok what kept sisters bonded as they grew up and the answers were pretty wholesome

Jayde compares life as an only child to now as she raises three daughters

We had a rebrand photoshoot!

We are constantly asked for advice when it comes to tension with in-laws, grandparents, relationships and more. Setting boundaries is easier said than done! To help us help you, we spoke to clinical family therapist and speech pathologist, Claire Barbagallo, all about communicating with the key people in our lives. We discuss…

What do you do if your MIL wants to share your children on social media and you’re not okay with it? 

Shifting from boundaries = conflict to boundaries as a form of healthy communication 

How to get grandparents on the same parenting page as you

Your non-negotiable parenting values

Explaining the ‘why’ to grandparents

Focusing on the new opportunities that come from a boundary

When the boundary needs to be repeated

Communicating with our partner in an argument vs sweeping it under the rug

Arguments in front of your children - do we address it with our kids?

Self compassion and regulation as communication tools

How can we help communicate something a bit more subtly?

When family or friends parent very differently to you

We speak a lot about finding a village, but what do you do when you’ve moved across the world and find yourself starting from scratch? Kerrene Taylor (@kerrenetaylor) is an American mum living in Western Australia, documenting the honest reality of becoming a mother far from home - without the village most of us assumed we'd have. We discuss…

How Kerrene met her now-husband and moved to Perth

Moving into motherhood without a relationship with her mum

How Kerrene explored remothering herself before having children

The term ‘morning’ sickness needs to be cancelled

Her birth and postpartum journey as isolation crept in

Finding new friends is like dating (daunting!)

Becoming diagnosed with PND 

The spectrum of sleep help

Experiencing rage for the first real time and its impact on her relationship

A small window into the maternal experience in Australia VS the USA

Kerrene’s words of advice for new parents seeking a village

 

Listen to Kerrene’s podcast, the No Village Club where she shares her journey of building a village where she is now.
