Well, well, well… long time no see, friends. Welcome back to Hello Bump.
Last time we spoke, Jessie & Luca walked you through the arrival of their beautiful baby girl, Luna.
Now that the dust has settled and they’re in the swing of life with baby, we wanted to know…has parenting been anything like they expected?
In this episode, Jessie & Luca take us through what the first four months of parenting were really like. SPOILER: things were not as they expected.

A lot has happened since you last heard from us. For one, Jessie had a baby!
But her labour and birth didn't exactly go to plan...
So today we've brought in Jessie's partner Luca so the two of them can discuss it from both sides of the experience, from the first contraction to when they met baby Luna. Consider this an experiment into how well our partners are paying attention in the delivery room.
Everyone's experience is unique. Always seek medical advice to find what's right for you.
If you're struggling postpartum, you can find local support here.

It’s month 7 and your baby is roughly the size of an eggplant. By now, you’ve surely been overwhelmed by an avalanche of unwarranted (though well-intentioned) tips on how to prepare for the baby.
In this episode, we’re going back to basics. From getting your home ready, stocking up on nappies, wipes and baby gear to setting up your nursery.
We’ll hear tips on all that from professional organiser Carmen Strong and explore the highs of finding out your baby’s gender, baby showers and picking a name. Plus our listeners share some of their must-have baby items.

We'll chat with Bump Day Spa founder Tegan Natoli and Family psychologist Jo Lamble about the power of asking for help, mastering the art of self-care (without guilt!) and the mental load mothers face during pregnancy.

It’s month 2, and while only the size of a kidney bean, your baby is growing at a rapid pace. This growth spurt could be leaving you feeling exhausted, ravenous and sore. Turns out being pregnant isn't all sunshine and rainbows!
In this episode, we delve into the discomforts during pregnancy and ways to navigate tough times. From the impact of common emotional and physical challenges all the way through to coping with severe pregnancy complications.
We're joined by Martha Kalifatidis from Married At First Sight who suffered horrendously with hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) throughout her entire pregnancy. Plus, we’ve brought back our resident expert Dr Caroline De Costa to unpack the science behind common difficulties in pregnancy and how to come out the other side.

Plus, we're joined by Caroline de Costa, an obstetrician who has been present at the birth of 10,000 babies...and we've got a lot of questions for her.
