Welcome to This Glorious Mess Little Kids. A twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is - confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny and full of surprises. So many surprises.

A few weeks ago we spoke about the mental load of the life admin that comes with being a mum, and you let us know that you could not relate more. We received so many messages and emails from mums and dads who related, so Leigh and Tegan wanted to dedicate a whole episode to the hacks that make their lives just that bit easier.

From outsourcing to chore schedules to robot vacuums, there's something for everyone to help ease the never ending mental load.

Plus, during Nail and Fail of the week, Leigh opens up about where she's landed at her fertility journey.

THE END BITS
