If you hadn't heard, babies generate a lot of waste. Like, more waste than we care to admit.

So naturally swinging from one extreme (environmental disaster) to another (zero waste) should be a seamless, obvious choice, right?

WRONG. This week Veronica Milsom reminds us about the time she tried to raise her second baby... waste free.

Warning: this episode contains something called elimination communication (look, idk...)

The Baby Bubble, hosted by twins Jessie and Clare Stephens (who had their first babies just 6 months apart), dives into the absurdity and hilarity of the first few months of newborn life. From the first post-birth poo, to the myth of schedules, and the absolute mayhem that comes with trying to leave the house.

If you’re looking for advice you’ve come to the wrong place, but if you want someone to crawl down into the chaos with you, we’re already here and the water is great!

Veronica Milsom Staged An Experiment On Her Second Baby

A mum with a birth plan, and a baby with a very different idea…

Michelle Battersby’s birth was long, her baby got stuck and she was forced to pivot to a birth she had never considered.

The entrepreneur, marketing guru & founder of Sunroom shared her diary of a birth.

Diary Of A Birth features mums telling their miraculous stories of bringing life into the world, and we have all medical questions and concerns cleared up by one of Australia’s favourite paediatricians, Dr Golly.

If you’d like to share your birth story, we’d love to hear from you at podcast@mamamia.com.au or send us a voice note here.

We're swapping cradles for the courtroom to share a special episode of our comedy podcast Cancelled. 

Instead of celebrity crimes, we are cancelling the way in which most of us came to this earth... BIRTH.

From the 'wet mess' to the smells and the pain we deep dive into all the reasons birth needs a logistical rethink.

PSA: if you are about to give birth or are a bit squeamish might want to give this one a miss.
