INFERTILITY AND MISCARRIAGES TOPIC GOES VIRAL – BABY BRUNCH PODCAST WITH ELANA AFRIKA-BREDENKAMP
“We don’t recommend you have a scar over something that you are not carrying…”
(Fertility expert, Dr Q in conversation with Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp.)
The Parent and Baby Brunch podcast, known for its insightful discussions on women’s health, has gone viral with a recent episode focusing on fertility and miscarriages. Fertility: Am I able to have a baby? has captivated a global audience, amassing over six million views, driven in large part by its resonance on TikTok.
“The pain around infertility and miscarriages evidently created a groundswell in our podcast community” says podcast founder and presenter Elana Afrika-Bredenkamp. “I always knew our subscription-free platform would benefit and support parents, but never did I think we would connect with so many families locally and around the world”.
The podcast featured renowned fertility expert Dr. Qinisile Cele, affectionately known as “Dr Q,” who shared invaluable insights and recommendations on fertility and treatments. Dr. Cele’s expertise and compassionate approach resonated deeply with listeners and viewers, underscoring the podcast’s and video platforms commitment to empowering women with accessible knowledge.
Elana expressed her gratitude for the overwhelming response to the episode. “I am deeply moved by the incredible reception this podcast continues to receive. The team works hard, and sometimes voluntarily, in order to educate parents and especially single mothers and fathers. Garnering six million views highlights not just curiosity, but a genuine hunger for informative discussions crucial to women’s health and the lives of our families. This milestone reinforces our mission to foster a supportive community and provide vital information for free”.
She adds “Unpacking the issue of fertility has given clarity, and an opportunity, for parents to express their often unspoken concerns. Instead of it being another thread of comments on social media, this instead became a deeply touching discussion forum for parents; many of whom have never spoken of their heartache, fears and experiences around miscarriages”.
The episode’s high audience engagement underscores the podcast’s growing influence in addressing parent related topics affecting women and families worldwide.
