Mum Talk Podcast
Emma Jaulin & Ali Bastian
Mum Talk is here for you on your journey into parenthood providing your 'nod along' and 'me too' moments plus answering all the questions we all have! For the first 13 series, Emma is joined by not only incredibly knowledgable guests, some experts in their field, but also Mums and Dads sharing their experience of pregnancy and parenthood. Emma also shares her personal journey from pregnancy to life now with two. Mum Talk is honest, real and informative.
For series 14, Emma is back with a brand new series and brand new conversation with her co-host Ali Bastian, who you may recognise from hit TV shows, Hollyoaks, The Bill and Strictly Come Dancing.
Ali and Emma are in the thick of motherhood and are here to deep dive into it all with you. Motherhood changes you as a person, physically and mentally, it seems (from personal experience)to give you the most incredible sense of purpose, self-worth and strength you didn’t know you had, whilst simultaneously leading you to question your ‘self’ and more or less everything you have ever known. Ali and Emma have one goal, as it has always been from the beginning of Mum Talk almost 5 years ago, to share in the hope no-one ever feels alone in motherhood.
Ali and Emma are here for it all, the highs, the lows, the journey that is motherhood, the realities of building a family, life, love, laughter, tears, heartbreak you name it.
Grab a cuppa or pop your headphones in and head out for a walk, join Ali and Emma for ‘hearts on sleeves’ mum talk and journey through motherhood together.

26 months in & 15 weeks prego: pregnancy, potty training and telling sibling of new baby
Mum Talk Podcast
11/25/20 • 62 min
Hello! Thank you for tuning in this week.
Today there are four parts to the podcast, starting with pregnancy (if this is a trigger for you skip to 16 minutes in). Pregnancy chat is followed by your array of questions, followed by potty training and telling a sibling of a new baby.
On the podcast this week I am sharing your advice and experience with both potty training and telling a sibling of a new baby. What is better than other mums advice who have been in the exact place you are now? I explain why I have done this on the podcast, but it is so incredibly helpful and I really appreciate all of you who wrote in to share your experiences with all of us.
Back next week!
Please do head over to mumtalkpodcast on instagram to be a part of the conversation and share your wonderful advice with us all on the podcast next week. I will be putting question boxes up in the next few days.
Lots of love

Lockdown and festive ideas!
Mum Talk Podcast
11/04/20 • 49 min
On this weeks podcast I answer your questions which have me chatting a little too much about Christmas, but with lockdown starting tomorrow I do believe a little festive spirit is needed!
Topics include:
Lockdown ideas
Fun festive things to do through lockdown and into December
Play/toy recommendations
Present ideas
and briefly touching on what we have changed with A's sleep (do listen to last 2 weeks podcasts for Sleep) and relationships with toddlers in lockdown.
Within this episode I share my thoughts on the fabulous Out n About Nipper Single. As you'll hear I think it is fantastic, if you'd like to take a closer look here is the website link http://outnabout.com/product/nipper-single (This product was gifted in return for an honest review).
Have a lovely rest of your week and I so appreciate you listening. If you're not yet subscribed please do, and I always appreciate a review if you have a moment.

I feel like this weeks podcast is the podcast you have all been waiting for! Even if we have perfectly sleeping children (I can only dream) with the clocks going back this week I bet not so many of us enjoyed our 'extra hour in bed'!
Today I am joined by Hattie Frank, certified baby and toddler sleep consultant, founder of Not Another Peep. Hattie kindly reached out when Amandine wasn’t sleeping well and after speaking with her and gaining so much insight, getting her on the podcast was an absolute must and luckily for us all Hattie agreed!
Hattie starts by outlining the perfect sleep setting for your little one and things to check if they are waking. We then move into your questions, split into under the age of 1 and over the age of 1 to help with clarity.
We so hope this podcast helps many of you, I can honestly say that even making the smallest of changes with Amandine we have noticed a huge difference! Amandine has gone from recently waking and needing to be settled up to 5 times a night to waking once and self settling....and as you can believe I am over the moon!
You can reach Hattie at notanotherpeep.com or on instagram at notanotherpeep.
Please if you love this episode and the podcast do rate and write a review, it helps so much and especially helps other mums to find our community! Also if you are not yet subscribed, subscribe and the next episode will land right on your phone.
Have a lovely rest of your week

TRIGGER: Dr Punam Krishan talks of birth trauma and PTSD from her first birth 6 years ago.
On this weeks podcast I am kindly joined by NHS GP and mum Dr Punam Krishan, mum to her 6 year old boy and new baby girl just a few weeks old.
Today Punam is sharing with us her beautifully positive birth story. Punam gave birth to her daughter in early April during the peak of COVID-19 and is sharing this today in the hope it will help other mums giving birth at this time.
Punam suffered severe birth trauma and PTSD with her first birth (now 6 years ago) and amazingly through her second birth just weeks ago feels more of her trauma has healed than ever through such a magical experience.
I truly hope you enjoy listening to my chat with Punam, I was covered in goosebumps on numerous occasions during our chat as she described her experience.
Enjoy and as always I love hearing from you so please do pop me a message or DM to @mumtalkpodcast .
