Transition to Motherhood:
Stefani shares about how she and her husband planned her pregnancy while she was in the fourth year of her med-school. She experienced anxiety, guilt, and shame from the beginning due to a variety of reasons that she discusses in the episode. Being surrounded by a family who struggled with infertility and being in medical school, Stefani found it difficult to open up to everyone regarding her conception.
Episode Summary:
This podcast also talks about Stefani’s struggle with postpartum depression. She highlights the importance of taking the step in seeking professional help whenever you feel most comfortable. She advises mothers to find a support person whom they can talk to first about what they’re experiencing – spouse, friend, family member.
She also added that she wouldn’t want to pressure any mom into getting help when she’s not ready but to encourage her to talk with non-professionals until she is ready. According to her, giving mothers knowledge is power in the situation and it’s critical to find people that you can truly trust and connect with. Stefani talks about a few studies that show that the higher rate of body dissatisfaction postpartum is directly linked to postpartum depression and anxiety. She elaborately explains the early signs, the cycle, and the predisposing factors that trigger the development of postpartum depression.

TRANSITION TO MOTHERHOOD:
Jennifer considers her transition to motherhood as the “most whirlwind time” of her entire life. With all of her excitement regarding her pregnancy and becoming a parent, she recalls that her transition to motherhood was a chaotic time — both positive and negative — because it was very different than what she expected.
In her second pregnancy, Jennifer has learned to have more realistic expectations. This time around, she feels she has more realistic insight into how her body changes, what she has to do in order to protect herself in the sense of having her “self-care time” while her family grows. She also shares that she has learned to make time to connect with her child, connect to her husband, and connect to her own self, too.
She learned from her first child what’s most important in her life based on the values that she has and the values that she wants to bring to her new family. It’s not the stuff that she could give to the baby (perfect nursery, baby items), but it’s the love, care, kindness, and making sure that her whole family is functioning as a family.
The biggest lesson she has learned is that she can’t do it all. She acknowledges the fact that she really needs to ask for help. She learned to pay attention regarding how much self-care she needs and prioritizing a portion of her time to be able to do that.
“There’s self-care for your body and then self-care for your soul.” [14:09]
JENNIFER SHARES SOME NUGGETS OF HER EXPERIENCE WITH BODY IMAGE DURING POSTPARTUM:
Jennifer explains that her postpartum experience was more difficult than her pregnancy period. She shares a story about her experiences with negative body image and how the chaos of postpartum impacted that.
JENNIFER SHARES ABOUT THE SPECIFIC THINGS SHE’S DOING TO NURTURE HERSELF:
She’s learning to embrace the flexibility aspect of having her second child. Although she may not have the idea of how her pregnancy or postpartum is going to be, she’s trying to embrace the concept of being present in the moment and taking things one step at a time.
Jennifer came to know that she needs to ask for help right away. She admits that she cannot be the person that’s capable to do it all. She cannot be the person that’s going to be solely responsible for her children, for her household and her business. She learned that she needs some help in every aspect of it. Whether it be hiring a babysitter, or a mother’s helper, keeping her son at his childcare, asking her husband for help, asking her family for help, and even asking her friends about what they feel and what’s going on with them. According to her, having that kind of support and that kind of relationship would be very important.

I have exciting news! I’m starting a podcast! This has been a long-time coming and I can’t wait to share all of the incredible interviews with you. I’ve been hard at work interviewing some pretty amazing moms and mom self-care pros. When I became a mom, I realized there we so many topics and issues that moms were having to figure out on their own – including myself! I’ve noticed that this regularly prolongs suffering and increases the risk of things like postpartum depression, eating disturbances, poor body image, diastasis recti, pelvic floor issues, etc… not being properly treated. This has got to stop. Enough with the suffering in silence or googling for hours to figure out if what you’re experiencing is “real” and if there is anyone out there who can help. I want this podcast to serve as a platform for getting information out there on these critical topics that deserve way more attention than they’re getting. I also want it to be a place for moms ready to opt-out of diet culture – choose body love and start trusting themselves and their children around food. I’ve spent the last 8 or so years of my career helping women, men, and families opt-out of dieting and heal their relationship with food and their bodies. I want mothers to have the knowledge they need to empower themselves to make these decisions for themselves and their families.
So, in short, The Nurtured Mama Podcast is about changing the conversation about food, feeding, body trust and living well while mommin’ up. Please join me, your host Lindsay Stenovec, MS, RD, CEDRD, as I talk with other moms about their transitions into and throughout motherhood, their experiences with food and their bodies and how we can keep ourselves and our families nurtured. Topics will include body image in motherhood, physical healing post baby, managing stress in parenthood, having a healthy relationship with food, feeding your family with confidence, infant feeding, perinatal mood disorders, eating disorders, intuitive eating, pregnancy nutrition and body changes, postpartum wellness and so much more!
