Canadian mom blogger, Just Jen P, joins the Plus Mommy Podcast to share her plus size pregnancy story and postpartum struggles.

It’s fascinating to hear stories from moms around the world. Jen, being a plus size Canadian mom blogger, shares how her access to Universal Healthcare and paid maternity leave is entirely different from what most families experience in the United States.

Jen left the hospital after giving birth with only a parking bill. As her daughter is taking her first steps, she is still on maternity leave.

While on leave, she has this time to focus on her family, body, and postpartum struggles.

Jen opens up about her postpartum anxiety. She shares how plus size model Tess Holliday helped her realize all she was experiencing was far more than baby blues. Jen’s now focusing on her mental health and tapping into her “mama mojo” (you’ll learn what this means during this episode).

Postpartum is such an important topic that we continue to cover on the Plus Mommy Podcast.
