28: How to Prepare Mentally for Postpartum Challenges (Sleep, Identity & Mental Health)

Épisode 28

mardi 27 janvier 2026 • Durée 18:55

Preparing for postpartum isn’t just about baby gear and birth plans - it’s also about preparing mentally for one of the biggest identity shifts of your life.

In this episode of the Postpartum Prep Podcast, Ceridwen is joined by maternal mental health therapist and neuroscience-based infant sleep specialist Gabrielle Ferrara for a deeply grounding conversation on how to prepare emotionally and mentally for life after birth.

Together, they explore what expecting mothers really need to know about postpartum mental health - including identity changes, sleep deprivation, and postpartum depression - through a compassionate, non-pathologizing lens that centers support, connection, and biologically normal infant behavior.

This episode is especially for pregnant mothers who feel excited about motherhood and nervous about losing themselves, struggling with sleep, or worrying about their mental health after birth.

In this episode, we cover:

How to mentally prepare for the identity shift into motherhood
Why “losing yourself” isn’t the full story - and how to bring your core values into motherhood
How to cope with newborn sleep deprivation without changing your baby’s sleep
Practical, nervous-system-supportive strategies to protect maternal sleep
The relationship between postpartum depression and lack of support
What actually helps prevent postpartum mood disorders
Why support, boundaries, and being vocal about your needs matter - before baby arrives

Gabrielle brings both professional expertise and lived experience as a mother, offering reassurance that postpartum mental health struggles are not a personal failure - and that meaningful support can make all the difference.

✨ If you’re pregnant and preparing for postpartum, this episode will help you feel more grounded, informed, and supported as you step into motherhood.

🎧 Be sure to also listen to Gabrielle's full episode, where we dive deeper into biologically normal infant sleep.

27: Why Babies Want to Sleep Close | Baby Sleep & Bedsharing Explained

Épisode 27

lundi 26 janvier 2026 • Durée 01:03:11

Why do so many babies struggle to sleep alone — even when parents plan not to bed share? And why does closeness feel so instinctive for both mothers and babies?

In this episode of the Postpartum Prep Podcast, Ceridwen is joined by Gabrielle Ferrara, nurture neuroscience practitioner and perinatal mental health therapist, to explore the biology, neuroscience, and emotional foundations of infant sleep. Together, they unpack why sleeping close to a caregiver is not a “bad habit,” but a biologically normal expectation for human babies.

This conversation builds on our previous episode about why families end up bed sharing, adding scientific context around nervous system regulation, extero-gestation, breastfeeding, and infant brain development.

In this episode, we discuss:

Why human babies are wired to sleep close to their caregivers
What extero-gestation means and how it shapes infant sleep
The neuroscience of co-regulation and why babies “borrow” our nervous systems
The difference between co-sleeping and bed sharing
How bed sharing can be practiced more safely using the Safe Sleep Seven
Why “self-soothing” is widely misunderstood — and what babies are actually capable of
Common baby sleep myths, including “drowsy but awake” and “bad sleep habits”
Why frequent night waking is biologically normal in the first years
How closeness and responsiveness support long-term emotional wellbeing
The impact of infant sleep expectations on maternal mental health and confidence

This episode is especially valuable for pregnant parents, new mothers, and anyone questioning mainstream sleep advice. Rather than prescribing rigid rules, it offers understanding, perspective, and evidence-based reassurance — empowering you to trust your baby and your instincts.

🎧 If you’re navigating infant sleep, bed sharing, or feeling conflicted about what you’ve been told, this episode offers a grounded, compassionate lens on what babies truly need.

18: What to Do When Your Family Disagrees With How You Want to Raise Your Baby

Épisode 18

vendredi 14 novembre 2025 • Durée 51:31

So many pregnant women wonder: What if my family disagrees with how I want to raise my baby?

Maybe you worry they’ll think you’re too crunchy, too gentle, too strict, too intuitive, too informed… or that your choices about sleep, feeding, breastfeeding, babywearing, or connection will be misunderstood or judged.

In this episode, we explore what’s really underneath the fear of family disagreement — and why this anxiety becomes so intense during pregnancy, even before the baby arrives. If you’ve felt pressure to keep the peace, avoid conflict, not disappoint anyone, or not seem “dramatic,” you are not alone. So many expecting mothers carry old patterns of perfectionism, people-pleasing, emotional caretaking, or childhood wounds into their postpartum planning without realizing it.

We talk about how this fear often has less to do with the actual parenting choice and more to do with deeper emotional layers:
– The grief of not having had the kind of parent you want to become– The longing to be seen, understood, and supported– The fear of taking up space or being “too much”– The discomfort of setting limits with people you love– The worry that a different choice means you’re rejecting your own parents– The fear of hurting feelings or disappointing your partner’s family

You’ll hear why these feelings are so normal, how pregnancy makes them louder, and how understanding your emotional safety needs can help you make grounded, intentional decisions for your motherbaby wellbeing.

Inside the episode, we explore:
🌿 Why fears about family disagreement appear before baby arrives
🌿 How childhood roles (the people pleaser, the good girl) shape your confidence as a new mom
🌿 Why loved ones may react defensively to gentle, connection-oriented parenting
🌿 How to navigate differences with your partner without slipping into self-abandonment
🌿 Why your parenting choices can trigger other people’s unresolved experiences
🌿 How to protect your emotional safety while staying compassionate🌿 🌿

17: What to Know About Galactagogues Before Birth | The Truth About Boosting Milk Supply

Épisode 17

mardi 4 novembre 2025 • Durée 32:38

If you’re pregnant and already seeing ads for lactation cookies, teas, or “superfoods to boost your milk supply,” this episode is for you.

In this week’s episode of The Postpartum Prep Podcast, host Ceridwen Farley, motherbaby wellbeing consultant and lactation counselor, takes a closer look at something called galactagogues—foods, herbs, supplements, or medications that are thought to increase breast milk supply.

But this conversation might not go the way you expect. While galactagogues are often marketed to pregnant moms as an easy way to “boost supply,” Ceridwen shares why they’re actually the last thing she reaches for when supporting a parent with low milk supply. You’ll learn what a full milk supply really means (hint: it’s not a freezer full of milk), why most women can make enough milk, and why normalizing low milk supply can unintentionally cause more breastfeeding struggles—not fewer.

You’ll also learn:

What truly causes low milk supply (and why “just eat a cookie” isn’t the solution)
The difference between primary and secondary low milk supply
Why oversupply isn’t always a good thing
How the supply and demand cycle of milk production actually works
When to seek help from a lactation professional (and why timing matters!)

If you’re preparing for breastfeeding and want to set yourself up for success, this episode will give you a clear, grounded understanding of how milk supply is established—and what actually helps support it after birth.

Because when you understand how your body makes milk, you don’t need to rely on marketing myths. You can trust your body, your baby, and the incredible design of the motherbaby connection.

🎧 Listen now to learn what every pregnant mom deserves to know about milk supply—before the cookies and teas ever enter the chat.

This myth-busting episode helps pregnant and new moms understand what to really expect - from frequent night wakings to contact naps and “sleeping through the night” myths. Learn what’s biologically normal, what’s not, and how to feel more confident about your baby’s sleep.
