Bumpie Group Chat: the many identity shifts of motherhood, aging, reasons why we choose NOT to drink, neighbour dramas & more!

Beyond the Bump

About

It’s been a long time since we put the call out for an Ask Us Anything style Q&A and luckily for our egos, Bumpies delivered with a huge range of interesting, juicy and curious questions! We jumped straight into…



    How is Sophie going with her pursuit for a hobby?
    Our screen time keeps sneaking up and we have mixed feelings
    Am I The Asshole if I won’t let my neighbour borrow my chairs!?
    Aging is feeling confronting, but do we have to ‘fix’ it?
    Our thoughts on Botox and Jayde’s journey with injectables
    Should we ever *convince* our partner to have more kids?
    Gender disappointment vs gender disconnect and how it is becoming more obvious as Jayde’s girls grow 
    We share our experiences with alcohol and sobriety - from boundaries to numbing emotions to role-modelling to our children, this one was complicated
    What are simple ways we can enjoy motherhood more?
    Mum or Chief Facilitator? The mental load of family time 
    How do you handle your friends' parenting differently to you?
