Ep. 16: Breastfeeding and postpartum style tips with Martina Minarik

This week on the podcast I’m joined by mama of two and owner of NINE+QUARTER maternity wear Martina Minarik. Martina discusses her own pregnancy and breastfeeding journey and shares some of her top style tips for what to wear during the postpartum period to make you feel good and to make life that little bit easier!

Martina was inspired to set up her own business NINE+QUARTER maternity wear after having her first child and struggling to find cool pieces to wear during pregnancy and then whilst breastfeeding. However, it wasn’t until she had her second child that she decided to do act on her inspiration (and frustration!) and create her own designs. She knew she wasn’t the only mama-to-be who felt constrained by a of lack style options available for maternity wear.

Originally from Sweden, Martina spent many years in London, and is now currently living in Bermuda with her family. She’s full of practical advice and top tips for rocking your body nomatter what stage of motherhood you’re in.

“We give up so much during pregnancy and in the first few months of motherhood so I think it’s so important to treat yourself to a few news items that make you feel really good, and which make you feel confident and empowered. You deserve it!”
