My girls sleep through the night now. They dress themselves. They eat on their own. So why am I more stressed than ever? Because the worry didn't go away. It just changed shape. I went from checking if they were breathin
I walked into the lounge and found both my girls on the couch — dead still, mouths open, eyes glazed — watching JJ sing about bath time. Cocomelon. Obviously. And the meltdown when I turned it off is something else entir
It's 11:30pm. The kids are asleep. I'm in bed Googling whether my four-year-old should be reading yet, and one article says it's a sign of giftedness while the next one says pushing it causes burnout. So which is it? In
I need to talk about Off Campus. I have been BURSTING. None of my friends are up to the same episode and I cannot sit with it for one more day. This is the late-night, headphones-in, kids-in-bed episode — a confession ab
I've toilet trained two kids. Two. And I'm not being dramatic when I say it's one of the hardest things I've done as a mum — up there with a newborn, face-up there with sleep regression. Everyone warns you about sleep, t
I had been doom-scrolling at 10pm when I kept seeing one phrase — butter mum. I thought it was about cooking. It wasn't. It was a name for the soft, unbothered, melt-into-summer mum I grew up with — my mum, in the 90s. T
My four-year-old judged my cooking last night. Out loud. To my face. So this episode is the full nugget-night confession — the 5:30pm chaos, the kids who change their food rules every twenty minutes, the snack-drawer tre
It's 8:47pm. The kids are asleep — probably. This episode is the full bedtime play-by-play: the stories that don't count, the teaspoon wees, the water that "tastes old," and the philosophical question about fish feelings
I didn't sign up for this. One toddler dance class to fill a Thursday morning, four years later I'm googling ballet barres at midnight and crying at the end-of-year concert. This is a confession episode about how I accid
I stood in my kitchen last week holding a hot coffee. Still hot. And both my girls were playing together. Laughing. Making up games. No one was crying. No one was pulling anyone's hair. No one was screaming "MUUUUM." And
I am finally saying the thing every mum thinks but nobody admits — I don't enjoy playing imaginative play with my kids. From Barbie marathons to being cast as the sick dog in pretend vet, I unpack the guilt, the generati
I was making toast and made the mistake of looking at my phone. And I saw kids. Kids the same age as mine. And I couldn't move. This episode is me trying to say out loud what I think a lot of mums feel but don't know how
So I watched a reel of a mum doing a full workout, meal prepping 15 organic lunchboxes, and applying a full face of makeup. All before 7am. And I was on the couch in yesterday's shirt eating crust off a tiny plate. Cool
I made four cups of tea a day and drank none of them. I typed "I'm not doing great" and deleted it. I sat on the kitchen floor and realised I hadn't said a full sentence out loud all day. Then I walked into a room with p
I wasn't going to record this week. But I watched that Louis Theroux manosphere documentary last night and I haven't been able to think about anything else since. It was 2am. I was lying in bed feeling sick. Thinking abo
My first 3am Google search as a mum was "will a baby have hiccups forever." I was genuinely concerned she'd be forty. In an office. Still hiccuping. And people would ask if she was okay and she'd say "mum didn't fix it."
Everyone says "look after yourself, mama." Cool. When? Between the school run and the meltdown or during the 4 minutes I get to pee alone? Let's talk about it.
I was going to be the cool mum. The patient mum. The mum who never yelled. Plot twist: I'm none of those things. And maybe that's not the tragedy I thought it was.
I stopped recording. Stopped showing up. Stopped pretending I could do it all. Real Mummy went quiet — not because the podcast failed, but because I was falling apart trying to keep it going. Hour-long episodes while rai
What happens when the adrenaline of birth fades and the visitors go home? We spend months preparing for labour, but the raw, messy, and profound journey of the fourth trimester is a chapter often left unspoken. In this e
