Becoming parents changes everything. Including your relationship.

And while we spend so much time preparing for the arrival of a baby, how much time do we spend preparing for the changes we’ll experience as a couple?

Because you’re BOTH going through an enormous transition. You’re both adjusting, learning, finding your feet and discovering new versions of yourselves.

Understanding what your partner is experiencing, as well as recognising your own needs, can make such a difference to how you navigate parenthood together.

It can change the way you communicate, help ease resentment, build empathy and create a stronger sense of being on the same team.

And that’s exactly why we created our FREE webinar, Becoming Parents Together: Conversations, Confidence & Connection.

Bringing together three wonderful experts from Jason | Raising Fathers
Bree Baxter and
Dadfit , we explore the transition into parenthood from both perspectives, sharing insights, honest conversations and practical ways to support each other.

Because strong family foundations aren’t just about preparing for your baby. They’re about nurturing the relationship at the heart of your growing family, too.

FREE to watch, whenever it suits you. Whether you’re expecting a baby or already navigating life as new parents, this is a conversation worth making time for.

Watch together, start the conversations and invest a little time in each other.

Find the free webinar via the link in our bio.

Save this for later or share it with your partner. ❤️

That question you’re too embarrassed to ask? Pelvic health physios have heard it before. 🤍

Leaking. Pain during s*x. Bowel changes. A feeling that something just isn’t quite right.

These can feel deeply personal to talk about, but to Emma Femme Space Women’s Health Physiotherapy , they’re welcome conversations. No awkward question. No topic off limits. Just space to talk openly, feel heard and understand your options.

How refreshing and reassuring to know you don’t need to hide away, find the “right” words or wait until things feel serious enough.

You don’t have to quietly put up with symptoms. There is support, and you deserve to access it.

Mama, you deserve a little breathing space.

When everyone needs something from you, it can be hard to hear what you need yourself. A little quiet. A warm cup of tea. A laugh with someone who gets it. A moment to release the tension that is building.

This is your reminder to take what you need today and each day that follows. Even if it’s small. Even if the washing is waiting. You don’t have to ‘earn’ some breathing space - it’s an essential part of your day.

We have a free Mama Meditation - a beautiful, restorative invitation to come back to yourself. A little breathing space to gently unwind and help you feel calmer, safer and more settled in your body.

You deserve care in the middle of motherhood, too.

Find the free Mama Meditation through the link in our bio. Save this for a day when you need the reminder, or send it to a mama who could use a little breathing space.

So many families find life after birth harder than they expected. Too many are left trying to find the support they need while caring for a new baby.

Right now, we have a chance to tell a Senate committee what that experience is really like and what needs to change in the way mothers are cared for after birth.

Mothers, partners, grandparents and professionals can all share their own perspectives. Your submission might be about physical recovery or mental health. It might be about the meals that got you through, help at home, the community you found, or how hard it was to work out where to turn. What worked matters too.

You don’t need a polished submission. Choose one experience, say why it mattered, and tell the committee what you’d like families to have in future.

Three ways to take part:
1. Use Julia Jones’s quick guided form for personal experiences. Link in bio
2. Email a short account to [email protected] if you’re comfortable with it potentially being published online.
3. Use Parliament’s official submission portal (direct link in bio) if you want to request Name Withheld or Confidential. The committee decides how submissions are handled. There are a few more steps in this way as you set up a ‘My Parliament’ account, but worthwhile if you’d prefer it confidential.

The relevant direct links are in our bio. Submissions close 9 October 2026.
Yes, we only have 12 days, and it’s during school holidays (oh the irony!) but all the more reason to get mothers’ care and wellbeing front and centre of the agenda; it’s about time.

Please add your voice, then send this to someone else who may want to share theirs.

The committee needs to hear the full picture of life after birth.

Reach out if you want any help or have any questions.

You’ve probably talked about the pram, the birth, the nursery and the baby names. But have you talked about what happens to you two when baby arrives?

Who gets up when everyone’s exhausted?
What does support actually look like to each of you?
How will you divide the mental load?
What happens when one of you is struggling?
Who can you call for help?
What can you afford to outsource?
How will you handle visitors and boundaries?
And how will you stay connected when there’s very little time left for each other?

These aren’t always the conversations that come up while you’re preparing for a baby. But they can become very important once you’re in the thick of new parenthood.

So we created our FREE Couples Conversation Cards for pre-baby + new baby days.

A simple deck of prompts covering sleep, feeding and recovery, finances, work and leave, your village, emotional wellbeing, visitors, boundaries, household and mental load, relationship changes and more.

There are no right answers. You don’t need to agree on everything. And this definitely isn’t another checklist of things you need to get “right” before baby arrives.

It’s simply a way to start talking.

Make a cuppa. Sit down together. Pick a few cards and see where the conversation takes you.

Motherhood can be incredibly lonely. Even when you’re rarely alone.

Becoming a mum shifts so much. Your routines, relationships, identity, confidence and the way you move through the world. And while there’s endless information about babies, finding genuine connection and your own village can be much harder.

We spoke with Mummas Circle about new mum loneliness, why meaningful connection matters and the small, practical ways mums can begin building a village around them.

Because your village doesn’t need to be huge. Sometimes it starts with one person, one conversation, one group or simply showing up somewhere for the first time.

If you’re pregnant, newly postpartum or somewhere in the thick of early motherhood, this one is worth a read.

Read “Feeling lonely as a new mum? How to find your village” in our LEARN section of articles. Link in bio.

And if another mum comes to mind while you’re reading this, send it her way. Sometimes knowing someone else feels it too can make all the difference.

A mother holds whole worlds together, often without anyone noticing the weight.

The mental load. The emotional labour. The endless remembering, planning, comforting, carrying and caring. So much of motherhood happens quietly, but none of it is small.

To every mum doing the invisible work of raising, loving and holding a family together: we see you. What you do matters more than words can say.

Is getting a cleaner really worth it?

It can feel like a big decision. Do we really need one? Can we afford it? Is it a luxury or could it genuinely make life easier?

But what if a cleaner gave you back something far more valuable than a sparkling home?

Time.

Time for the people you love. Time to rest. Time to work, connect, breathe or simply do more of what matters to you.

We sat down with Welcome to FAMILY CLEAN from the Not Another Onesie | A village of support for modern motherhood Village to learn how they’re helping Australian families reclaim precious time while making everyday life run more smoothly.

Family Clean describes itself as a matchmaker, not simply a cleaning service. They take the time to understand each family’s individual needs, then find the right person and tailor the support around what will make the biggest difference in their home.

Because the best domestic support isn’t one-size-fits-all. It’s having the right help, in the right areas, from someone who feels like the right fit.

Everyone asks about the baby. This is your reminder to ask about the mama, too.

Matrescence can feel beautiful, disorienting, lonely and all-consuming. A message that says, “I see you, and I care about how you are,” can be an anchor in the middle of it all.

Send this to a mama you want to check in on and send some love to today .
