all the details on why Chloe is on bedrest and how the baby is doing
if Ellidy and Laura managed to pull off the baby shower
behind the scenes at Out to Lunch (and did Chloe make it to FISHER's show) and LIV Golf
an announcement on Ellidy's house situation

Love and Loss and Losing Lachie with Georgia Copeland (Part One)

If you have anyone under 5 in your life, you might know Caterina Mete as the Red Wiggle. Why on earth would Chloe and Ellidy be interviewing a Wiggle?
Well, one of the topics that comes up regularly in our facebook group, is having a child on your own. What to do when you're yet to meet a suitable partner but you know without a doubt you want kids?
This topic has been on our ideas list for a long time, and when we heard that Caterina was pregnant with twins at 43, after deciding to go it solo via IVF and a sperm donor, we knew this was a conversation we wanted to have.

The Choice to Go Parenting Solo with The Red Wiggle; Caterina Mete

When it comes to fertility, the focus on finding the issue often falls on the woman. However, the stats show us that male fertility is equally as likely to be the root of the issue. It's time to change this focus on women and balance out this conversation. In this episode, Chloe talks to Dr Shahin Ghadir, a top LA fertility specialist, to talk all things male fertility and sperm health.
