Preparing for Pregnancy and Birth with Madison Kalleske

Welcome to The Wellbeing Room.

In this episode, I interview Madison Kalleske. Madi is a personal trainer and fitness professional based in the Barossa Valley, South Australia. I’ve been a client of hers for a number of years. She is also one of my yoga clients and I’ve been enjoying working with her over the last 8 months as she’s been growing a baby.

Listen in as Madi shares:

• the steps she took to optimise her preconception and pregnancy journey
• her recommendations for maintaining physical health and wellbeing during pregnancy
• how she’s learned to listen to her body and develop a new level of mindfulness 
• key things to consider when selecting a doctor, midwife, obstetrician
• what to keep in mind when developing a birth plan and her approach to creating a list of birth preferences
• one key thing that has helped her improve wellness and get more out of life.

“Having a baby is not as simple as doing the deed to have a baby. It’s definitely everything you can do preconception, and that is obviously getting yourself healthy and well, but (also) learning as much as you can about the things that your body is going to go through.”
~ Madison Kalleske
