Baby Baking & Kid Raising

So, you’ve decided it’s time for a baby - or maybe you’re an expert in the baby-making department already, either way - this podcast is for you! Baby Baking and Kid Raising is brought to you by two Australian health professionals - midwife and founder of Bumpnbub Aliza Carr and obstetrician, fertility specialist and gynecologist Dr. Joseph Sgroi. Being parents ourselves - we get it. The struggles, the triumphs, the overwhelm and the joy - we are right there with you. As passionate educators in our field, we can’t wait to deep dive into the latest research and evidence while discussing stories that we hope will inspire. Join us weekly as we sit down to discuss fertility, pregnancy, birth stories and the journey into parenthood - where life gets real, real fast. Grab a coffee (or something stronger) and hear inspiring stories from guests, as well as in-depth conversations about topics that matter.

Then Along Came Mum - With Natalie

July 17, 2025 • Aliza Carr and Joseph Sgroi • Season 4 • Episode 3

Hosted by Aliza Carr, registered midwife, perinatal mental health specialist, mama of two, and owner of Franjos Kitchen. Then Along Came Mum is a raw and unfiltered mini-series exploring the parts of motherhood we don’t talk about enough.

Across four heartfelt episodes, Aliza sits down with incredible mums to share honest stories of identity shifts, body changes, 3am loneliness, finding (or craving) a village, and the emotional highs and lows of becoming a mother.

These aren’t the polished Instagram moments. They’re the real, tender, chaotic, beautiful truths of life after “then along came mum.”

Whether you’re preparing for birth, deep in the newborn trenches, or reflecting on your own journey, this series is here to remind you: you’re not alone, mama.
