Customer Reviews
Great for first time parents
Listened to the whole series last summer before I tried to get pregnant and now going back with my partner listening again to each week as I get there. Easy listening and informative. Would recommend to others!
Great pod for an expectant dad
Thank you for this podcast! As a first time expectant dad, it helped me understand what was going on in my wife’s body and what to look out for later on in her pregnancy! Thank you
So grateful for this podcast
I am so grateful I found this podcast- it has filled in so many gaps for me that meant I was much more prepared for hospital appointments and each week of pregnancy. Thank you for making it!
