  • So real and comforting and relatable

    When I found out I was pregnant I was hearing so much negativity around pregnancy and birth I literally typed “positive pregnancy podcast” into the search bar for podcasts and Pop That Mumma popped up! I couldn’t be happier to have found Poppy. I feel like she is a best friend after listening to her podcast. She is so real, raw, relatable, knowledgeable and hilarious. I feel so much more at ease about pregnancy birth and motherhood after listening to all of her podcasts. I listened to every epi... more

  • Down to earth and helpful.

    Like a breath of fresh air - which is really nice after digging through shows that are either doom and gloom, or just fake it until you make it. I feel like Poppy is super helpful but also relatable in a way that’s inspiring for us moms that we can do it too.

  • The best podcast for prenatal and postnatal

    I love this podcast, I started to listen it more than 1 year ago when I was pregnant in 2023 and still listening to Poppy as she is so passionate, authentic and honest about birth and motherhood. Thanks to her podcast and her hypnobirthing course I had my natural homebirth, no tearing and unmedicated.

    For me Poppy is a friend that motivate me and reassure me.

    Thank you Poppy, you are inspiring!
