E111. The importance of creating your birth environment with Midwife Pip
The importance of creating your birth environment with Midwife Pip
Sometimes birth environment is considered a bit of an optional ad-on, a ‘nice if you can’ or maybe even a bit of a hippy consideration. I want us to challenge that because the environment you labour in can have a huge impact on the way your labour goes and in the way you feel about the whole experience too.

E109. Diastasis Recti and Doming in Pregnancy and Postpartum
Diastasis Recti and Doming in Pregnancy and Postpartum with Aby Tobin
If you have heard of diastasis recti in pregnancy or the postpartum then you have probably heard the term doming. If these terms are all new fear not today’s episode is going to reveal all. But if you have heard the term doming it has likely sparked some fear in your mind or even led to you avoiding or restricting exercises and movements. Over the years, the advice and science about diastasis has shifted and we now know such much more, but the trouble is this information and support is not as readily available as it should be for pre and postnatal mums.
For this reason I am super excited for this week’s guest Aby Tobin @abytobinphysio, a pelvic health and exercise specialist physio, mum of 2 and a former athlete who has personally experienced prolapse.
I very much hope you enjoyed listening.
