View show details

How soon is too soon to return to work after having a baby? Netballer Paige Hadley was back on the court ten weeks postpartum — and the internet had thoughts. Monique, Amelia, and Clare unpack why we all have so much to say about other women's postpartum choices. If you've ever given up on pairing the kids' sock or let them quit that extracurricular activity — you might be a 'Beta Mum'. We dive into why mums are rejecting the optimised parenting grind and whether it's a feminist revolution or just collective burnout. Plus, the low-key genius parenting hacks hiding in a Reddit thread, and this week's recommendations. Reccos Amelia recommends Celeste Barber's BOOIE Excellent BB Cream. And right now, it's $40 at Woolies. Monz is loving Bad Company on the ABC, if you love Fisk, Utopia or Australian comedy, this is your show. Clare recommends Smocks by Little Chomps to protect your little one's clothes every meal time.
