Podcasts are one of THE media of our time. Amusing, diverse and definitely suitable for moms (to be). It's super easy to immerse yourself in the world of listening in a variety of formats. Just put on your headphones and start listening. There is an almost indescribably large selection of podcasts. How can you navigate elegantly through the podcast jungle? And what listening formats are there specifically for moms-to-be? In this blog post, we have put together our top podcast ideas for you in 7 interesting categories.
Benefits of Podcasts - Mami approved
All audio formats, including podcasts, have some advantages for pregnant women and new mothers. You can choose podcasts according to your personal taste and start listening to them whenever you want and it suits you. And you can also easily pause them and continue listening at a later time.
Although your ears are busy, your hands are free and you can do things like take care of the housework, set up the baby's room, look after the baby once it's here, or breastfeed it, for example. Podcasts can also be a "window to the world" if you want more outside input while on maternity leave or parental leave. And while you're listening to something, you can distract yourself from your own thoughts and switch off better.
There is a podcast for every mood! Do you want to motivate yourself and go through the day consciously and happily or do you need a moment of peace and relaxation? Do you want to think about a profound topic or would something funny be just what feels right for you? There really is something for everyone in the huge podcast pool!
It's also practical that there are a lot of podcast providers that you probably already use to listen to music. Just have a quick listen to see if the podcast is for you. (This can be different with a series, for example. If you want to get into a new one, it sometimes takes a few episodes.) You can (usually) start with any episode at any time and skip something that doesn't interest you.
