What happens when your water breaks mid-squat at the gym? Bridget tells all in this heartwarming and hilarious episode of the Psychotic Py Podcast! Join us as she recounts the thrilling story of her son Theodore James’s timely arrival and the mad dash to the hospital that followed. From her pre-labor jogs and gym sessions to the chaotic yet comical moments leading up to Theo’s birth, Bridget shares her journey with humor and honesty. You'll also get a peek into the emotional rollercoaster of labor, the amazing support from her midwife and doula, and the amusing regret of indulging in a chicken thigh just before the intensity kicked in.
In the second half of our episode, we shift gears to explore the raw realities of new motherhood. Bridget opens up about the challenges of breastfeeding, from adapting to Theo’s demanding feeding schedule to coping with sore nipples and the transition to pumping. We also dive into the constant concerns that haunt new parents, including using tools like the Owlet Dream Sock to ensure Theo’s safety. With candid insights and relatable anecdotes, Bridget discusses the intense maternal instincts, the dynamics with family members, and the surprising quirks of genetics, such as eye and hair color variations. This episode is brimming with heartfelt moments, laughter, and valuable tips that every new and expecting parent will appreciate.
