When The Memo entered the baby sphere a few years ago it instantly stood out from other retailers.
Sleek, fashion forward and offering parents an alternative to the noise, clutter, and the (often too loud) opinions of the baby market, The Memo is your one stop online boutique for everything you need for baby, and nothing you don’t.

As a woman going through pregnancy, your body goes through an incredible transformation. The changes can be challenging or empowering, but definitely fascinating. One thing is for sure, there are big changes, and nothing really stays the same as ‘before’… it’s not really meant to.
During my pregnancies and journey into motherhood I’ve had to re-assess my style choices. Mostly for practicality and comfort, but also because my body has changed so much from month to month, year to year.
In keeping with this weeks theme of tuning in, embracing and celebrating our mama bodies, today I wanted to share with you the release of Cake Maternity’s newest Nursing Sports Bra ‘Popcorn‘ and chat a little bit about how I’ve enjoyed staying active and tuning into my body during my pregnancies.
Laura Callea, aka Physio Laura, is a pelvic floor physiotherapist and Founder of the online fitness platform ‘The Pregnancy Posse’.
I came across her amazing online course during my first pregnancy, when due to Covid, I was looking for targeted pregnancy safe exercises I could do in the comfort of my own home. When researching possible resources ‘The Pregancy Posse’ kept being recommended by many other women who had enjoyed her services, and with good reason.
Becoming a mother definitely changes you. There’s no doubt about it. Regardless of your, lifestyle, career or parenting style there are things that just evolve from your pre-child life.
One of the most interesting changes that I have witnessed in myself is the relationship with my body. I have been lucky that my pregnancies and motherhood have taught me to be kinder and more appreciative of a body that has achieved incredible things (regardless of birthing or not, the human body is incredible, full stop.)
In celebration of World Breastfeeding Week, Cake Maternity are offering 25% OFF site-wide, and given that they’re my favourite maternity wear specialists I definitely wanted to share that news with you all.
Elk really know how to make a statement print with class, and a silhouette that flatters in all the right places, even when 34 weeks pregnant! When I first tried on the Valter dress I knew it would quickly become one of my favourite go-to pieces.
When I first found out I was pregnant with Jeanie, I remember a friend suggesting to me that I listen to the Australian Birth Stories Podcast if I wanted to learn more about birth itself.
She wasn’t the only person to suggest this to me in the early days. The same suggestion was given to me by my midwife, doula, work colleague, and family friends…and with good reason.
Having interviewed over 300 women and with over 8 million downloads the Australian Birth Stories podcast is a clear favourite amongst parents and birth professionals alike.
As I get closer to my estimated due date for baby number two, I cannot help but get absolutely immersed in all things pregnancy, birth & motherhood.
Becoming a mother the first time round to our beautiful Jeanie, was such a challenging, amazing and transformative experience.
