Anyone expecting a baby or struggling to get their sex life back after your baby is born, this one is for you. Mother-of-one Niamh is a former nurse, and she's been through it all when it comes to pregnancy sex, sex while breastfeeding and trying to get her libido back on track after having her daughter. She talks so honestly in this episode about the worries of expectant and new mothers: everything from being too sick to be horny, worrying about poking the baby's head and not wanting her husband to touch her for weeks on end.

This week I turned the tables and am being the interviewee. You guys sent in questions about my life, questions you wanted my opinion on and questions you’d never shared before, and I did my best with them. Enjoy! And sorry. Genuinely, my advice is basically useless on all counts.

When I asked Ellen to come on the podcast and chat about divorce, I had no idea how much I was going to learn. She talks so honestly and bravely about her life - meeting her first husband at 17, him being 13 years her senior, getting divorced after just two years, the mixture of sadness and relief, getting remarried, blending families and how through it all she managed to set up and run her incredibly successful company, Waxperts. We discussed how to approach a situation where a friend might be stuck in an unhealthy relationship, how to support and advise them, and how you can't move on until you're ready.

I thought I knew the basics about fertility and it's unwelcome comrade, infertility, until I spoke to the incredibly brave Joanne and Will about their journey to conceive.

Anyone who's so much as considering having children in future should listen to this.
