The Formula vs Breastfeeding Debate, the Microbiome and a Conversation with Eurovision Legend Niamh Kavanagh

Description
Well, we finally reconnected after what felt like an eternity, we didn't expect our catch-up to be a riotous journey through the rollercoaster of parenting. From the tender early years to the eye-rolling teen phase, we share the comical, yet profound shifts in our kids' views of us, alongside the evolution of our parenting tactics - because, let's face it, what works for child number one is a whole new ballgame by the time child number four comes along. Adjusting our rhythms and learning to laugh at ourselves, we invite you to chuckle, nod in agreement, and find comfort in the shared experiences that bond us as parents. Amid laughter and confessions, we ventured into the emotionally charged arena of infant feeding - a topic that often comes loaded with guilt and worry. Touching on the science of the metabolome and the microbiome, we reassure listeners that every drop of breast milk has its benefits and that formula stands as a robust, nourishing alternative. While we anticipate a fascinating conversation with Eurovision winner Niamh Kavanagh about her unique parenting insights, this episode is already brimming with heartwarming tales and practical advice about embracing motherhood, balancing personal ambitions with parental responsibilities, and championing both breastfeeding and formula without judgment.
