In this week's episode of Mamma Social The Podcast, Kayleigh and Lauren dive into Breastfeeding Awareness Week (1st to 8th August).

They discuss the challenges of breastfeeding, including knowing when to stop and the difficulties of breastfeeding after having a second child. The ladies touch on the judgement mums often face and emphasise that there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to feeding your baby. The phrase “breast is best” doesn’t reflect everyone’s experience.

They highlight game-changing breastfeeding products like nipple pads and Pretty Mama clothing that make breastfeeding easier. The conversation also covers those awkward moments when others, especially men, seem uncomfortable around you while breastfeeding.

In this week’s Share Your Shit segment, they address the topic of in-laws and unannounced visits, stressing the importance of setting boundaries and effective communication. Plus, Kayleigh’s fact of the week reveals that eating garlic can make your breast milk taste garlicky—and surprisingly, babies tend to prefer it!

In the latest episode of Mamma Social The Podcast, things get a tad chaotic as Kayleigh and Lauren are riding a sugar rush. Lauren kicks things off with a hilarious tale of a camel toe scare in her new jeans and advocates for embracing the camel toe with confidence.

The ladies vent about mams and their knack for unwelcome advice, while pits and peaks include the start of the dreaded summer holidays and Kayleigh's unexpected new hobbies: cricket and MMA fighting—who’d have thought?

They tackle the important question: when do you know you're ready to have kids? Their verdict: it’s all about that gut feeling—or take Lauren’s advice and test your nurturing skills with a dog first.

Gentle versus old-school parenting styles go head-to-head, with a side order of shedding childhood baggage and knowing when to say sorry. Because let's be real, parenting is like trying to fold a fitted sheet—exhausting, confusing, and occasionally involves swearing.

In the latest episode of Mamma Social The Podcast, Kayleigh and Lauren take a trip down memory lane, reminiscing on core childhood memories like cardboard cars and karaoke machines. Peaks and pits of the week include Lauren getting vommed on and Kayleigh’s fantasy of being a mam of four.

The ladies dish on the struggles of free time as a parent and tackle the big topic of maternal mental health, stressing the importance of therapy—because who doesn’t need a little 'human maintenance'?

Parenting pet peeves are on the table this week—feeding and hair-washing are the top offenders. Plus, Kayleigh’s got a wild, slightly concerning story about Freddie choosing mealworms over veggies.

Kayleigh’s fact of the week: why women cry more than men, has them agreeing on the importance of a good old maintenance cry. Plus, things get real with an important health PSA: check your boobs and book your smear tests, ladies!"
