In this episode Charli talks to artist Kate Lane about all things pregnancy, birth and the 4th trimester during a pandemic. Kate has had her 2nd daughter during the pandemic. Having babies 15 years apart have made for a very different experience.

This episode also features some very cute baby gurgles as a newborn reaches for her mama after a slumber! You're welcome x
