The Birth Diaries is a podcast by two local mothers on a mission to share the real, raw, and honest experiences of birth—from the good, the bad, to the downright messy. Created for local women, by local women, this podcast aims to bring together the community through authentic birth stories, creating a space where no topic is too embarrassing or off-limits.
Tune in as we cover everything you wanted to know (but were too afraid to ask) and dive deep into the realities of childbirth and motherhood. Each episode features real birth stories, candid conversations, and expert speakers who join us to debunk myths, share their wisdom, and answer those burning questions—so you can stop Googling and start feeling empowered.
Whether you're a first-time mum, a seasoned parent, or just curious about what birth is really like, "The Birth Diaries" has you covered. It’s all about supporting local women on their birth journey, while embracing the beauty and chaos that come with it.
Meet Kirsty
I’m Kirsty, a proud local mum with three young crazy boys, a pastor and brow lamination technician. I started Bare Birth Story - somewhat similar to this, a space where women could share their birth over social media.
Meet Grayce
I’m Grayce, a proud Port Macquarie local, girl mum, and passionate women's health advocate. As a Pelvic Floor Physiotherapist and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I’ve dedicated my career to supporting women through all stages of life.
