I Beg Your Partum!?

Nads is recovering from post wedding blues as Katie prepares for moving house with a family of four. Plus, the gals start to think about how to actually parent, and we get a deep dive on the experience that is baby cinema.

The wedding debrief is here!!! We hear all about Nads’ wedding day with a toddler in tow, and Katie’s advice for attending an oxytocin-high event while breastfeeding. Plus, Katie reports on making it through the 2 under 2 threshold as Joey has another birthday party!

Nads surprises Katie with a little bday treat as the POD TURNS ONE. We hear about Nads’ disastrous call to 111 the week before her wedding (perfect), how anxiety is getting a bit too centre stage for Katie and Katie discovers the secret to a happy marriage.

This week the gals are suffering from a serious case of post-party depression as they debrief Nadja’s hen do in Barcelona. From the highs of a weekend of girlhood to the reality check of motherhood waiting on the other side of their fleeting taste of freedom. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

This week the gals are talking all things HEN DO - from Nads’ slightly embarrassing trial run with her NCT pals (spoiler alert: she was not conscious for all of it) to Katie’s preparations for leaving her 10-week-old for the weekend. They also chat about the mothers they thought they’d be versus the mothers they’ve actually become…

This week, the gals celebrate all kinds of achievements. Katie takes us through her TWO weekends of solo parenting, and we get coverage of some very important world news. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

The newborn bubble has well and truly burst, as Katie gives us the low down on the joys of 2 under 2. Nads works out how many hours she has spent breastfeeding, and there’s quite a lot of chat about poo. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

The gals are BACK and there’s a new kid in town - Katie’s second baby!!!! We hear all about the first month going from 1 to 2 and get to do Nads’ favourite thing ever - hear a detailed birth story. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

Class is in session this week, as the gals welcome their first ever live studio guest! Blaise works in child and adolescent mental health and is on to discuss all things attachment theory: what it is, what healthy attachment looks like in our babies, and how we might be able to course correct when needed.

Nads is back at work and is NOT nailing the transition, while Katie is categorically done with being pregnant. The gals cover some very important high brow news (alongside low brow gossip) and we hear from a listener whose sick bags were not placed strategically enough.

The end of an era is near, as Nads settles into her final week of mat leave and Katie limbers up to give birth this month!! Meanwhile, Katie goes on the hunt for what exactly fun is going to look like this decade, and the gals come to realise all the ways they’ve aged. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

Big moment this week, as Nads is nursing a hangover after what sounds like an actual night out?! Katie FINALLY gives us an actual pregnancy update, and shares her latest experience on why travelling with a child is categorically not a “holiday.” And we hear from a lovely listener on their own parenting dramas.

This week, Katie has finally realised she is in fact pregnant (32 weeks in), Nads experiences all the highs and lows of nursery, and we hear about the joys of planning a wedding and honeymoon (can you call it that?) with a baby. PLUS, Katie's life gets ruled by a second baby a little sooner than she was expecting.... Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

This week is about all things SLEEP, as the gals get on a professional to answer all your questions and debunk the most common sleep myths to try and get us all some more zzz's. PLUS Katie has a serious gripe with the state of London's tube etiquette. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

This week, the gals wonder who qualified them for all this adulting, Nads jogs Katie’s memory on all the imminent newborn fun, and they confess to some truly spectacular social blunders - which they’re absolutely pinning on motherhood. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

Nads is back and there is LOTS to catch up on. Katie shares her decision to sleep train inspired by the live witnessing of a crime (sort of), the gals prep for nursery life, and we get their take on some very important current affairs. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

We have our first ever GUEST HOST on the pod! Whilst Nadja is away, Katie is joined by Laura, who talks giving birth vs watching your wife do it first, choosing a sperm donor, and - to Katie’s delight - a detailed birth story (trigger warning required for this one!)

This week the gals debrief on their Christmases (spoiler: no one slept much), get the goss from that midwife appointment Katie finally went to, and hear from listeners on something we all love: unsolicited parenting advice. Music Credit: Fundarella Production: Anthony Zahra

In a festive special, the gals tackle fresh mental breakdowns, gifting culture, and what to do about the wandering mouths approaching your baby this winter. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week the pod makes a BIG announcement! The gals also talk nursery, give their thoughts on how to navigate wedding szn as parents, and try to keep it together over a very brave confessional write in… Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
