Welcome to episode 10 of Next of Kin Parents Podcast! I'm Emma, a British Expat, and Mum of 1, living in Dubai, UAE, and this podcast follows along my own journey raising my daughter and starting my first business.
Today I am joined on the podcast by Julie Haydn-Higgins aka The IG Midwife. Julie is a UK-trained Midwife with 18 years of experience. We'll talk in-depth about how her own complicated pregnancies, adoption, and motherhood journey have helped her to become such a passionate Midwife. Not only is Julie a practicing Midwife but she works tirelessly to improve maternal care and to create the community that we are lacking as expats. If that wasn't enough she also runs 2 companies; Women and Families Wellbeing and British Care.
It was so enjoyable to get to know Julie and find out about her life and what makes her so positive and able to live life to the fullest. She also covered all of the most asked questions:
- Tips for easing morning sickness
- Does it matter how much weight you gain in pregnancy? What is normal?
- How will I know when I am in labour?
- How to choose a good doctor
- When to see a doctor
- What causes flat head syndrome and how to prevent it?
- How do I nurture my baby into a happy and confident adult?
- When can a baby fly and top tips for the plane
And so much more!
TRIGGER WARNING, do be advised that we briefly discuss pre-term births and baby loss as this was sadly part of Julie's own motherhood journey
