Über diesen Titel

The go-to podcast for moms who want to feel less overwhelmed in the trenches of early motherhood.


***TOP 5% GLOBALLY RANKED PODCAST ***


You did everything they told you to do.

You took the birth class.

You built the baby registry.

You prepped the nursery, the hospital bag-maybe even printed a checklist or two.

But somewhere between the gender guesses and the baby pools, no one prepared you for the most important part: the exhaustion, the mental load, the identity shift—life after birth.


If you’re overwhelmed, touched-out, or wondering when you’ll finally feel like yourself again, you’re not alone-and you’re not failing.


You’re in the right place, mama.


Hi, I’m Chelsea Barbine—wife, mom of two under three, postpartum health coach, and the friend who will always ask you to tell me more.


I’ve lived two very different postpartum realities.
The first? A summer baby who arrived five days past her due date. I had a 9–5 job, full-time childcare, and a calm, two-person household.

The second? A winter baby born six weeks early, 16 days in the NICU, a toddler at home, and a business I wasn’t taking much of a "maternity leave" from.


What I’ve learned is this: the only way to be the mom you want to be is to make sure you’re supported, too.


On a mission to rewrite the postpartum narrative for the collective I’m sharing my “secrets” to better sleep, sanity and self-identity in motherhood. Because truthfully - the health and happiness of the world depends on us!


If you’re ready to finally feel at home in your postpartum body… to create rhythms that support your healing, boost your energy, and strengthen your bond with your baby… to make confident decisions without spending hours scrolling for answers… and to reconnect with who you are—without the mom guilt—this podcast is for you.


So throw in that claw clip and grab your Hydrojug. It’s time to Postpartum Better!

    Gut health may be “trendy”, but for moms and babies, it’s so much more than that. In today’s episode, Chelsea sits down with Madeline Lauf, founder of Begin Health, to unpack the hidden world of the gut microbiome and why it’s a game-changer for postpartum recovery, maternal well-being, and your child’s lifelong health.

    From how antibiotics at birth affect mom and baby, to the surprising ways your gut impacts mood, immunity, hormones, and even skin—their conversation goes beneath the surface.

    What to listen for:

    • What “gut health” really means and why it’s crucial for moms and babies
    • The connection between the gut, brain, hormones, mood, and immunity
    • How antibiotics, processed foods, and modern living affect the microbiome
    • Easy, practical ways to support your gut health postpartum
    • How maternal health directly shapes baby’s health through pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding
    • Why the first 8 years are the foundation for lifelong gut health in kids

  • What I’d Tell a First-Time Mom If I Wasn’t Afraid to Hurt Her Feelings
    Aug 16 2025

    Send us a text

    You think you know how to take care of yourself — and you do… but you’ve never done it while keeping another human alive 24/7.

    In this episode, Chelsea gets real about the massive shift from pregnancy (where everyone’s focused on you) to postpartum (where all eyes are on the baby)… and the part no one tells you: you are still the one responsible for your baby’s growth and development. From the science of co-regulation to why self-care can’t be an afterthought, this is the truth-first-time-moms need to hear — even if it stings a little.

    Curious about what it’s really like to give birth at a birth center—and be home just four hours later?

    In today’s episode, Chelsea sits down with Brittany, a mom of three, to share her full birth story—from her water breaking in the middle of the night to delivering her baby in a calm, midwife-supported setting. She opens up about choosing a birth center after two hospital births, how this third experience felt completely different, and what it’s like to know with confidence that your family is complete.

    This honest conversation is full of insights for moms planning their next birth or wondering if a third child is the right choice for their family.

    What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

    • What a real birth center delivery looks like from start to finish
    • How this mom went from 6 cm to baby in 40 minutes
    • Why she chose a birth center over a hospital for baby #3
    • What it’s really like to go home just hours after giving birth
    • The biggest differences between hospital vs. birth center care
    • Real talk on the logistics of a third child (cars, beds, travel, and more)
    • Why this final birth felt like the most healing of all

    Whether you're considering a birth center, thinking about baby #3, or wondering how you’ll know when you’re done growing your family—this episode offers clarity, relatability, and practical insight.
