Postpartum, Trauma & Learning to Thrive
In this very first episode of Tea with Tidda, I share my raw and real postpartum journey — the one I never expected.
What was meant to be a quiet month at home with nappies stacked up and newborn cuddles turned into a month in hospital after my son became critically ill with meningitis and was flown to Perth. Instead of resting, I entered survival mode.
In this episode, we talk about:
• Postpartum shock
• Parenting from trauma
• Medical fear and hyper-vigilance
• Survival mode vs surrender
• Learning how to let go
• And how God taught me to breathe again
I also share the Scriptures and prayers that carried me through fear, anxiety, and exhaustion, and what it has looked like to move from simply coping… to slowly learning how to thrive.
If you’re a mum carrying fear, trauma, overwhelm, or silent tears — this episode is for you.
You are not alone. And healing is allowed.
