17. When you are told you have diabetes in pregnancy
18 november 2019 · 31 min
Pregnancy in diabetes, or gestational diabetes, is really common. Up to about 12-14 percent of all pregnancies. Lees meer
There are certain women that are more at risk of developing gestational diabetes but in fact, everybody is at risk. This can be hard because you might think – I am young, healthy and without symptoms so what am I doing with diabetes?
And it is an issue in pregnancy that needs to be addressed. Most people know that in a diabetic pregnancy the baby can get very big which can complicate the birth. Once born, the big baby can also be unwell. Less people know that the placenta can be affected and result in the baby being growth restricted.
Why did we start this podcast? Well we think there is a barrier for women to get EXPERT pregnancy info that is practical, relatable and easy to understand.
Dr Pat has helped 1000s of women have their babies and through this we know that this kind of information given to a woman at the right time can totally change her experience of pregnancy and birth.

16. Can you say NO to tests and treatments in pregnancy and birth?
12 november 2019 · 19 min
This ep is a bit of a pandora’s box. What can you say no to during pregnancy and birth? Well, you can literally say NO to everything. Lees meer
Ethically a health care provider can’t force a woman to accept any sort of treatment, even if they strongly believe their treatment plan is in the best interests of the mother and/or her baby.
You have choice in your pregnancy and birth, your consent needs to be given and you are your own best advocate. The trick is knowing from an informed position what is worth advocating for.

5 november 2019 · 30 min
Having a baby in the breech position presents its own set of challenges. A baby from 20 – 30 weeks moves around tonnes and that is expected and wanted because a healthy baby moves. If though, your baby is still ‘head up’ at 35 weeks we will need a plan for your baby’s birth. Lees meer

13. What you need to know about First Trimester Screening tests
23 oktober 2019 · 21 min
First trimester screening is a test for genetic abnormality and is commonly called the Down Syndrome screen. Lees meer
The types of test, the accuracy, the costs and the ability to give you a definitive answer about genetic abnormality is really not well understood by patients…and sometimes care providers.
At times, a screening test can create more questions than answers. Firstly, it is normal to assume all will be fine. Most of us do that, right?
It can then come as an enormous shock to you if you get a result you weren’t expecting, particularly if you haven’t had a really good chat with your care provider before the test.
This test is purely your choice. What you choose to do with the results is your choice.
Our hope is that we all (care providers, family, friends, community) then support your choice with respect and non-judgement.
In the GrowMyBaby program we give you expert led pregnancy information. If you are new to having a bump or you feel a bit lost in your pregnancy then head over to our pregnancy quiz:
https://www.growmybaby.com.au/pregnancy-quiz
In the meantime, have a listen to this podcast. It gives some key points to help you with your choice for first trimester screening tests.
We cover:
- What are your chances of having a baby with a genetic abnormality
- How to assess your background risks
- What tests are available
- What are the timeframes to have each test
- What are general costs

12. What contraception can you take to help protect your fertility?
8 oktober 2019 · 25 min
Most women spend most of their fertile time trying to NOT get pregnant but for those who want babies in the future, thoughts can wander to “what if my history of contraception impacts my fertility?” Lees meer
And it’s a common question. Contraception forms an integral part of a women’s life and is a very individual journey. What suits one woman may not suit another, even what suits you right now may not suit you at a different phase of your life. It is worth thinking about your options and putting a contraception plan in place.
This podcast covers:
The different types of contraception – barrier methods, hormonal contraception and Long Acting Reversible Contraception (LARCs), fertility awareness method, tubal ligation and vasectomy.
When to stop your contraception and when to start trying for a baby
What contraception types can delay your return to fertility
How to make sure you are on the safest contraception for you
A comparison of contraceptive effectiveness
What contraception to consider after your baby is born
If you have just started listening to The Kick and are thinking about getting pregnant, there's loads of information in episode 2 “How to become an ovulation ninja”.

11. What are normal baby movements? And why we bang on about them so much
1 oktober 2019 · 19 min
Baby movements is your baby’s way of telling you all is well. A healthy baby should move. Imagine if you were really sick, you would still move around the bed and get up several times a day to go the toilet. If you lay in bed for many hours, not moving at all, you would probably be dreadfully ill. Lees meer
A baby that’s doing nothing is not normal.
And why are we so insistent about baby movements? If we look at unexpected stillbirths in the third trimester, an alarming number of those stillbirths are preceded by a couple of days of decreased or absent fetal movements.
Your main defence against this is to be focused, from about 28 weeks, on YOUR baby’s pattern of movement.
This podcast covers:
How picking your baby’s pattern of movement is important
Why we moved away from ‘kick charts’
Why going to sleep on absent fetal movements is not a strategy
What to do if you think you have reduced or absent fetal movements
Why a baby ‘slowing’ down at term is not a sign you are going into labour.
And if you haven’t yet subscribed, hit the subscribe button now and thanks so much for your support.

10. Getting the Whooping Cough vaccine (and what to do about visitors)
24 september 2019 · 12 min
What to do about visitors to your newborn baby? Firstly, feel confident to stand by YOUR rules. This episode talks about one potential rule 'all visitors to have a whooping cough booster before visiting the baby'. Lees meer
Banning people from having contact with your baby, particularly if they are showing signs of a persistent cough, is really smart. We know it’s hard to not share the joy of a brand new baby with loved ones (hands up who loves a snuggle with a newborn?) but after a quick listen to this ep you will be able to confidently stand by your decisions.
If you are interested in more expert pregnancy facts and tips make sure you subscribe to The Kick Pregnancy Podcast. If you've got a question that needs answering you can email us at info@growmybaby.com.au
Our website www.growmybaby.com.au also has some great tools like our pregnancy knowledge checker as well as a free checklist to take to you doctor at your first visit.
This Episodes's fast facts:
10,000 to 40,000 cases of whooping cough are reported each year in Australia
Adults don’t have the telltale ‘whoop’ but a persistent cough may be whooping cough
Every new pregnancy needs a whooping cough booster in the third trimester. This helps your newborn have partial immunity to whooping cough in their first 6-8 weeks.
In all states of Australia, pregnant women can get their FREE vaccine from their GP. In some states, partners are eligible for a FREE vaccine also otherwise it costs approx. $45.

8. Why the position of your placenta is important
3 september 2019 · 13 min
The placenta is the frisbee shaped wonder pack that really has so many jobs as you grow your baby. Lees meer
Firstly, it sends oxygen and nutrients from the mother's circulation, down the cord into the baby. In reverse, it sends fetal waste products back up the cord into the placenta and off around the mother's body for excretion.
It also is a gland that makes pregnancy hormones.
BUT sometimes your placenta's position gets in the way of allowing your baby to head out your cervix when it's time for birth.
A complete placenta praevia occurs in 1 in 200 pregnancies. This is where the placenta completely covers the uterus and prevents you from having a vaginal birth.
This episode talks about the different types of praevia, when you get checked for praevia, what risks are involved and what to do if this is you

Bleeding and spotting in early pregnancy can be really frightening. Lees meer
