Today we met with child behavioural therapist, Gilly, from Nanny to the Rescue, where we discussed all things toddler, tantrums and general behavioural issues and how to discipline when it comes to our kids! She talked us through how to cope with a toddler's tricky behaviour from bedtime problems, to meal times, to bad habits such as using phones, how to distract and introducing the 'thinking step!' as well as giving us some helpful tips moving forward, which we hope will help you too!

Today's podcast is with Annabel Karmel, the best selling baby food author with over 44 books to her name! Today Annabel chatted to us all about the correct nutrition when it comes to feeding our toddlers. We all get in a pickle when it comes to meal times and are sometimes stuck on ideas, so Annabel gives us some tips, advice and answers the question we're all thinking, are fish fingers and chips bad to give our toddlers?

As a mum, we hear the words 'sleep,' 'nap' and 'G-D please make my child go to bed' more often that we have ever had a hot meal. And with the pair of us having our own personal struggles with our little ones and their 'sleep regressions' or 'separation anxiety,' we thought it was time to call out the professionals! And the wonderful Rosey from Just Chill Baby Sleep, came into our lives with the most simple, yet effective advice and within 24 hours, our sleep issues were resolved! So we hope...

We live in a world where we are constantly judged as women. Through social media, editing apps, reality tv shows and everything in between, we can't escape the pressures of always having to look our best. However, what's not as widely discussed, is the pressure of being 'the perfect mum.' From the second you announce your pregnancy, and for the rest of your mothering life, the conflicting advice, the ifs and buts, the pity stare and the family member or friend who always 'knows best', the...

Separation anxiety is a killer!! We have all heard about it, most have experienced it, but it definitely SMACKS you in the face when it comes around. Feeling sleep deprived, and unsure of how to deal with the situation, sometimes a hug and a word of advice is all you need! And that is exactly why we decided to do this weeks podcast on this particular topic, as Sophie is currently going through this with Zack and is about to ram her head against a brick wall (or run away to a desert island and...

Going on holiday with young children can be a nerve wracking experience, whether a first time mum, or experienced. We both recently got back from our first holiday together with the babies, and stayed in a villa. It was definitely the best decision we had made, as we had all the amenities needed for the babies and were able to sunbathe whilst they were napping. In this podcast, we talk about the pros and cons of staying in a villa vs a hotel and our experiences, must have items and what we...

Mum guilt is something that we all struggle with... So what is mum guilt?

We are all culprits when it comes to social media and spending hours scrolling through people's Instagram accounts and comparing ourselves to others, but have we ever taken the time to think about our children in this self obsessed, cyber world we live in and how it's going to affect their lives and how they portray themselves? Yes, we are hypocrites when we say how much we HATE social media (as we type on a laptop and upload videos on Instagram), but we are aware of the dangers that come...

We feel one of the biggest taboo subjects when it comes to marriage after kids, is your relationship with your partner. It's inevitable that things change once a brand new baby enters your life, and it's almost unavoidable that the dynamics between yourself and your partner will also change. It takes time to get yourself into the flow of parenthood and with that comes a lot of tension, resentment and many arguments, but the key to any relationship is to always communicate and make sure to...

So now we're home with the babies, WTF do we do next? With our lives totally turned upside down, it was the beginning of a brand new chapter and we found ourselves having to completely reinvent not only ourselves, but our brand new day to day lives. Our message to all first time mums, is to take a deep breath, accept help and realise that it's ok to not be ok! Get out there, make new friends and try not to rip your husbands head off at the end of the day... :–)

Our personal uncensored experiences of natural birth compared to Cesarean.

First times mums, with a lot of coffee, no patience and plenty of sleepless nights. The hot guy in our bed was exchanged for a screaming baby and our 3am gin & tonic was replaced with warm baby milk. Our high powered jobs turned into high a powered life changing mission of keeping a baby alive and a new outfit every weekend turned into the same pyjamas day in day out (washed or not washed...) Our goal is shed light on the reality of motherhood without the Instagram filter.
