This week the girls are back for a proper platter and a natter — the kind of catch-up that goes absolutely everywhere. Gemma shares pregnancy updates as baby’s arrival gets closer, while Sinead reflects on life with a three-month-old and how the newborn trenches finally start to ease. From sleepless nights and breastfeeding realities to hemorrhoids, hospital bags and postpartum essentials (yes… including the fanny freezer), nothing is off limits. The girls also dive into their Hot Takes of the Week, including why every friendship group should have a “nesting day” before a baby arrives. They chat about: • navigating early motherhood and sleep deprivation • the importance of community and helping new mums • friendships, showing up for each other and building your “village” • the pressure around marriage and babies • parenting styles and when others step in with your kids Plus the usual chaos and oversharing.

This weeks episode is very different… because Gemma’s waters unexpectedly broke early. We’re recording in pyjamas, on bed rest, during an actual sleepover while navigating a real-life pregnancy plot twist. Gemma shares the full story of being diagnosed with PPROM (Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes), the hospital visit, the moment everything changed, and what happens next as baby Murray may be arriving sooner than planned. Between the chaos, tears, laughter, and hormone-fuelled hot takes, we talk honestly about pregnancy scares, motherhood realities, friendships showing up when it matters most, and how humour sometimes carries you through the hardest moments. This episode is raw, unfiltered, emotional and very us. If you’re pregnant and listening, this episode is your reminder that pregnancy doesn’t always follow the plan. Information, support, and community matter more than perfection, please lean on professionals to get everything checked over don’t put off if you think you are making a big deal of something or unsure.  This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
