On today's episode, we share our CupFull moments of the week which includes a serenade from Steph and a(nother) cry from Bex.
Bex has changed her mind on making new friends in her 30s, especially local mum friends, and shares how the universe is trying to make it happen.
Steph wants to flip the convo about screens, and instead of feeling guilty about giving your kids access to movies and TV, let's celebrate the imagination and music being introduced to them.
Also, two questions: Yay or nay to shower caps at swimming lessons? And do you agree on Steph's take on TS's All Too Well, the ten minute version?

We're Steph and Bex. Two mums. Not experts. Yapping about our experiences in the hope you feel less alone.
Please welcome to Mums Talking our very first guest... SHARYN CASEY!
From lip kissing parents, to crying in a McDonalds drive-through - we go on an emotional rollercoaster with Shaz on this one.
Sharyn very generously shares her experience of her life-threatening labour at only 29 weeks, with Covid lockdown to add to the stress.
We discuss her birth trauma, her hero obstetrician, her battle wounds, her return to work, and the ONE thing she misses from working full-time in radio.
Thank you Sharyn for sharing such a vulnerable and difficult part of yours and your family's life with us and our community of listeners.
And in true Sharyn Casey form - she has us chuckling along the way. We hope you enjoy this episode!

In this episode, we’re talking menstrual cycles, Meryl Streep, mum guilt, and the mental load that comes with it all.
Bex reveals what happened between her and a stranger in a public bathroom when her period made its postpartum return.
Steph opens up about mum guilt and the pressure she puts on herself to be better in the kitchen. This week she attempted to cook… but her first effort was not warmly received by her 2-year-old, leaving her feeling like she’d failed at one of the most basic mum expectations.
We also get real about the mental load in relationships and what that looks like for us.
Bex has also been to see The Devil Wears Prada sequel… and let’s just say, Meryl Streep, Bex has notes.
And Steph shares what dream-come-true moment happened to her on a recent flight.

In this episode, Bex gets emotional when she shares a beautiful moment with her son that made her realise something that no one tells you when you go from one child to two.
Bex talks about cutting out dairy and why our own health so often ends up at the bottom of the list.
We get into the beautiful side of hand-me-downs from friends and family, and some very creative listener suggestions for handling tantrums (shout out to the ear doctors 👀).
We also unpack the completely self-inflicted pressure to create over-the-top birthday cakes for our kids, and ask ourselves do we actually have hobbies anymore? And if not, what would we love to try?

There’s a lot of poo chat in this one… apologies (kind of). But honestly, that’s the very real, very messy side of motherhood and postpartum life that no one talks about.
From Bex’s suppository nightmare to Steph’s haemorrhoid struggles, we cover all things bum-related.
Steph has officially entered the 'terrible twos' and we share the slightly creative ways we’re handling toddler tantrums.
Let’s just say… we’ll never look at HRV ducts the same way again.

This week, Steph takes us inside her family holiday to the Cook Islands, featuring a surprise hospital visit, a celebrity couple, and the most unhinged t-shirt slogan we’ve ever heard.
A long-awaited confession finally comes out - what actually happened when Steph walked in on Bex’s husband in the shower?
Plus, Bex opens up about postpartum sex, and we share the results from our IG poll on how long people are waiting after giving birth to get back into it.

On this episode, we laugh, we cry, and things get a little bit snotty. Steph opens up about her boy moving up to the next room at kindy and the surprisingly emotional goodbye to his first teachers. It sparks a bigger conversation about being present and the little strategies we use to help our forgetful selves hold onto this precious time.
We reflect on how motherhood has made us a little bit boring - but we'd have it no other way. We dream up our ultimate dinner party guest list… which takes a wild turn when Steph drops two truly shocking concert confessions. And of course, we tackle one of life’s most universally humbling experiences: is there anything more mortifying than falling over in public as an adult?
