Transform Your BirthAuthor: Tracey Anderson Askew
Transform Your birth Podcast will educate, entertain and support your ability to navigate pregnancy and prepare to give birth. We can't control birth, but Tracey helps us to see how we can influence it and how it helps us to become parents. Transform Parenting Founder Tracey Anderson Askew explores birth through stories and the lens of what birth can teach us. She prepares families for birth and parenting and views birth as the catalyst for the transformation necessary to go from woman to mother, and man to father. These podcasts will share that wisdom and change the current birth narrative from what happens in birth to how birth changes us.

Tess - Fast birth, positions for pushing, post birth reality with a baby
Episode 128
Wednesday, 11 February, 2026
I am so very proud to offer you my conversation with Tess today, for the raw truth of what the path to having a baby can deliver. Tess experienced a lot of practice dealing with contractions prior to labour day for weeks leading up to the birth. On birthing day, things progressed very quickly, leading her to birth her first baby within 4 and a half hours. When meeting her baby, she didn't experience the 'rush of love,' people often describe. This led us into a rich conversation about the expectations we carry that we need to 'feel the love,' when a baby emerges. The truth is some people take days, weeks, even months to realise that they love their baby. Conversations like this help us move beyond ideals and expectations into being ok with whatever unfolds and appreciating that everyone's experience will be different. The moment a baby arrives does not define the relationship over a lifetime. Bonding is a lifelong process. Rich wisdom indeed. Enjoy dear ones.
