This is it! The last episode of season 2 of Maybe Baby and we're signing off with a megastar.

2020 really was the year of Giovanna Fletcher. Whether it was interviewing the Duchess of Cambridge on her hit podcast Happy Mum, Happy Baby or winning I'm A Celeb or releasing not one but two books - she's a force of nature but one with the sunniest disposition.

We're so glad she could make time for us to chat about her lessons from motherhood for us but also what it was like to be the mother in the castle - and how you may as well have five kids! (Spoiler - we won't be).

You can find Gi's latest books below:

We're closing in on the finish line and for all the talk, the discussion, the interviews - how ready are we, actually?

We've had 8 months to get ready - do we have all we need for Nuchky? Can we feed her? Can we transport her? Do we know what we're doing? It's also a good chance to air our weekly grievances as you realise that having a baby puts a sharp focus on your relationship and how you get on with each other.

With the birth just 3 weeks away, it's time to get our sh*t together properly and ensure we're ready for her arrival.

One question that has been on our minds for a while now is how tough will those first twelve months be? Every journey is different for every woman but if you're going to ask anyone, why not ask an award-winning comedian who's literally written a book about it.

Enter Ellie Taylor, who is as honest and funny as you would expect. We cover how she changed her mind from being ambivalent to becoming a mother, the struggles she faced in the first few months and a story that may literally be out of Something About Mary.

Ellie's book "My Child and Other Mistakes: How to ruin your life in the best way possible" is available for pre-order from Amazon - you can find it at https://www.amazon.co.uk/My-Child-Other-Mistakes-possible/dp/1529362997.

This episode is part-third trimester and part-therapy as we reach the business end of the pregnancy. Be ready to hear all the gory details but also a healthy dose of Boj vs Kate as we air our (very petty, very minor) recent grievances.

Be it tidying up, shouting at 3am or facing up the realities of giving birth in the height of the pandemic, getting closer to the date brings its added tensions as the nerves kick in.

Children and sleep. It seems to be the main topic for so many parents wrangling with stubborn sleepers and it can have a major impact on the welfare of both parents and children. So to head off that little disaster, we called on Rosey Davidson AKA Just Chill Mama, sleep consultant extraordinaire to help us out of any potential jam.

We talk about sleep and a whole lot more, covering feeding, swaddling and the ever-divisive Gina Ford. It's a must-listen for any parents-to-be (saying that as people who found it super useful!)

You can find out more about Rosey and her company at justchillbabysleep.co.uk - you can also find her on Instagram under @just_chill_mama

Becoming a mother is one of the single biggest factors behind women dropping out of the work force - but why don't do we do something to stop 50% of our workforce potentially disappearing?

It's something very much on Kate's mind which is why we brought Mother Pukka (aka Anna Whitehouse) onto the show to discuss how she's been campaigning for workplaces to offer more flexibility and the impact of the pandemic on the campaign. But of course, we cover so much more - on how Anna & her husband Matt have written three books together, how they keep the spark alive after having children and we even get to meet the family.

Tell you what's a right laugh - trying to figure out what to call your offspring. Do you go traditional? Or modern? What about celeb names? What about avoiding celeb names? How about you pick a name and then Amazon decide to call their new AI assistant the same thing?!

In a nutshell, it's not easy. So let us guide you through some of our thought processes, how we went about it and also why you can't call your kid Stompy in Germany.
