I am the father of an eight year old boy. I listened to this podcast faithfully while he was in the womb and it helped me be a much better and more informed father to be. I firmly believe that I was a better partner for my wife as a result of listening to this podcast. I should have given this amazing podcast a great review years ago. I refer my friends to it when they are first time parents.
The interviewer is a man

Pregtastic- thank you for being such a wonderful source of encouragement and information for this first time mom. I thoroughly enjoy each and every episode, hearing from and relating to the panel & laughing out loud alongside you all at times. I have learned so much from listening (e.g. rodent droppings can carry deadly to your fetus airborne viruses- and I having just swept out our shed full of rat turds- learned from the show and was able to alert my Midwife and receive the appropriate testing & follow up. No where else had I been told this! So ladies, it's not just the kitty box to steer clear of..) Thank you so much, I tell all of my friends to tune in!!
Make more!
