Rayna is a generous, fun and kind soul who I believe was destined to be a parent. 
In this episode, we discuss learnings from our own childhood, the surprise of finding out you're pregnant at 20 weeks, and being a full-time parent in inner-city Melbourne.

This episode of the Motherlode touches on the following topics:

  • Second trimester surprise baby
  • Postnatal depression
  • Anxiety
  • Learnings from how we were raised
  • Calm discipline
  • Studying with kids
  • Attachment parenting
  • Co-sleeping
  • Full-time parenting 
  • Maternal health care
  • Alternative schooling

As we do in each episode, we also talk about all things parenting - from how we were raised, the pregnancy,  the early days and the present.
