    Things got a bit heated during this episode, and to be honest, we're not sure where we landed on the issue. But hey, we hope you enjoy it!!

    Welcome back to all our beautiful Bumpies listening! We hope you’ve missed us. This episode is going to be an absolute mixed bag—or as we like to call it, "raw dogging it"! 
    You guys have sent us some questions you want answered as we discuss some topics we're eager to dive into. It’s been a while since we've given an update, and we suppose not much and yet everything has changed for both of us since then. 
    As always, we hope you enjoy this episode!

    Sex toys: where do we even begin?! - with Rach, from LBDO

    Sex toys: where do we even begin?! - with Rach, from LBDO

    Welcome to Episode 234 of Beyond the Bump! Today, we're chatting with Rachel Baker, the founder of LBDO, all about sex and intimacy. We reckon these topics are huge parts of parenthood often brushed under the rug, leading to heaps of shame and guilt.
    Our Bumpies have flooded us with questions about sex and intimacy, so we're tackling them head-on. Questions like, "Help! I feel like I've totally lost my libido post-kids. Will it ever come back?" Or "What do you do when you and your partner have mismatched sex drives?"
    We hope you enjoy this episode!

Love BTB!

This podcast got me through my pregnancy and beyond! Jayde and Sophie are authentic, relatable, and hilarious.
The content continues to be interesting, including guests/experts and just listening to the ladies talk about their own lives.
Jayde and Sophie - keep up the great work, celebrate your successes, and continue to be your kind and grateful selves. I’ve never been offended by your “privilege” but rather inspired by your busy lives, careers, and ability to do it all while being great mothers!

Out of touch

Used to LOVE this pod but sophie does not understand her privilege. She does acknowledge it - I’ll give her that - but she is always complaining and I get it - parenting is hard and rough but the degree of her hardships does not warrant the amount of consistent complaining. going overseas so has to do passport photos - You’re taking your entire family OS. It is crazy ignorant. The flexing is off putting. And then digging at reviews rather than respecting that listeners are leaving and feeling different - is also hard. Taking feedback and acknowledging would show authentic empathy

rubyyyyh ,

Best.

Long time listener, first time reviewer.
Freaking love you Jayde and Sophie, you have gotten me through so many lonely first time mother hood moments where I felt like I was going crazy until I found your podcast and realised what I was feeling was all so normal. You have taught me so much while always having a laugh at the same time. Generally interested in every topic and love how you interact with each other and guests. Feel like I’m chatting with a couple of girlfriends and thanks for validating that it’s okay to not always love parenting. Thank you for all you do ❤️
