Very interesting

I have learnt so much from this podcast. Sad to hear it is finishing, but for me perfect timing as my little one recently turned one. So it’s come a full circle.
Thanks for the great podcasts!

Fantastic podcast & an ally to mums

Love this podcast! They cover a broad range of topics and episodes are always punchy, well researched and include experts working in that area. I particularly like that the podcast feels like an advocate and ally for mums. So in amongst the sea of commentary in the world that instigates almost constant mum guilt, this is a breath of fresh air that makes you think but also feel good. Thanks Penny and the team!

de Quervain's tenosynovitis

I was interested to hear this episode but instead this was about Tummy Time. An easy fix to update to the correct episode and will listen when it’s ready.
