I found the advice reassuring

Sarah Ward

'I found the advice reassuring, nice to hear real stories. What I liked the most were real-life experiences and what feelings are natural and not to be too scared of them. '

It made me think about this possible result of motherhood

Laura O'Malley

'Having your personal stories and advice from the midwife. It made me think about this possible result of pregnancy/motherhood. It’s scary but I feel better for thinking about it now and not being taken by surprise if it does happen to me.'

Antenatal classes prepare you for birth - not for motherhood

You’ve dreamed about this moment for years.

The pregnancy test. The tiny kicks. The nursery. The baby shower.

And yet… here you are, and something feels off.

You’re exhausted before the baby even arrives.

Your emotions are a whirlwind you can’t control.

You’ve panicked over things you know shouldn’t matter.

And deep down, you’re scared you might… fail.

Because nobody told you:

  • That feeling overwhelmed is completely normal, and it doesn’t mean you’re a bad mum
  • That it’s okay to miss your old life
  • That it’s normal to feel resentful, lonely, sad, or anxious, even if you always wanted this baby
  • That your relationship might change in ways you never expected
  • That first-time motherhood is a shock to your body, mind, and heart, and surviving it takes guidance, support, and real strategies.

Antenatal classes tell you how to give birth - but nobody prepares you for life after the baby comes home.

And that’s exactly why I created Happy Motherhood Journey.

Meet Ivana!

I am Ivana Poku, the author of Motherhood – The Unspoken, award‑winning maternal mental health advocate, wife, and an mum to three wonderful boys (including twins).

After surviving severe postnatal depression, I set up @Mumsjourney and made it my mission to support other mums and make them feel less alone.

In 2019, I was shortlisted in the Best Business Women Awards.

The same year. I published the first edition of my book Motherhood – The Unspoken which shares real-life stories from 10 different first-time mums, gives plenty of support and reassurance to new mums, and, in the process, helps lower the risks of PND.

Around the time the book was released, I also started running online and offline workshops and classes for new mums – many of them in cooperation with the NHS midwives.

In 2020, I won a Bronze Shining Star Business Award.

I could not be prouder of how far my brand Mumsjourney has come. You could see my work featured in various media outlets, including Forbes, The Guardian, or Telegrpah.

I also occasionally appear on BBC London Radio as an expert. Before she moved to GB News, I was also a regular guest on Nana Akua’s parenting show on BBC 3CR.

Over the last nine years, I’ve helped and supported hundreds of mums through my blog, book, workshops, and media work - and now I’m here to support YOU too.

FAQ

  • How is this course different from regular antenatal and prenatal classes?

    The antenatal classes provide a lot of valuable information on birth and how to look after a newborn. However, as even admitted by the NHS midwives themselves, most of them don't offer information about life AFTER the baby arrives, about the emotional changes that come with motherhood, or postnatal mental health. These are, however, crucial information for every new mum to know as they can make all the difference in the way new mums experience motherhood and even prevent them from/lower the risks of postnatal depression.

  • How do I know if this course is for me?

    If you are new mum, the course IS for you!

  • What if I am not happy with the course? Do I get a refund?

    I am sure you will LOVE the course and find it valuable, but if for some reason, you feel it didn't meet your expectations, you have 7 days from the day of purchase to request a refund.
