Beyond the Bump

As always Bumpies, when one of us is up, the other is down! We kick off the latest Bumpie Group Chat episode with…

Jayde and Harry have made big changes in the bedroom

Sophie unveils her perfect feet and Jayde confesses she loves a foot job

Pearl has had another tough week at pre-school and Sophie is reflecting on her readiness

The daily grind and back-to-school routines are hitting Sophie’s family hard after a tight-knit year in the caravan - is mainstream school always the right option for everyone?

Jayde shares a Rude or Fabulous - would you clean a random school bag and share the lunchbox contents on a Facebook forum? Type A energy or overkill?

It’s been a busy 2 or so years for Michelle Battersby (@michellebattersby) who has grown and birthed two boys 17 months apart, all while selling her tech start-up Sunroom and beginning the role of President at global app, Peanut. We dived into her journey to chat more about…

Life before children as a woman carving a path in male-dominated boardrooms

Her career progression and moving to LA to found her own tech start up

Navigating pregnancy in her workplace and reflecting on how motherhood and career would look for Michelle

How she reframed the changes she underwent as a mother as a positive instead of worrying she’d “lost” herself

Having two kids with a close age gap - the pros and the cons!

Michelle explains Peanut - from connecting 6 million mums, tracking pregnancy, parenting advice to scheduling online mother’s group meet ups, it’s an amazing tool for mums

The Bumpie Group Chat is back and it’s a bit of a different vibe to earlier in the week. Reality is sinking in and we need to talk about it…

Pearl had a tough time starting pre-school and not only is it heart-breaking, it’s making Sophie wonder how she is actually going to get work done

Jayde is finally feeling her age and we dive into aging mentally and physically. Greys, fine lines and chin hairs - are we embracing them? Are we chasing beauty standards because we actually want to or is it social pressure!?

Sophie asks Jayde to share candidly how she frames her Botox appointments with her daughters

Kids can be brutal to each other - how do we help them navigate social challenges and peer pressure?

We are back, Bumpies! New year, new us? After sharing way too many digestive details, looks like we’re still the same. After a 6 week break, we had A LOT to catch up on…

How is Sophie adjusting to life back home after her lap of Australia? 

Jayde shares how scary navigating sick kids, a snow storm and an international health system was 

Goldie and Mia start new school journeys and it’s a rollercoaster of emotions

Sophie’s addicted to her phone (but actually, who isn’t!?)

Jayde discusses her phone usage rules for her tweens

One of the girls is starting couple’s therapy and taking us along for the ride

How do you actually socialise without drinking? 

Anddddd we’ve got some exciting things in store for BTB and we need YOUR help!
