The Baby Bubble

SUMMER LISTENING: The Third Kid Dessert Analogy & FFS, Stop With The Texts


Listen Later

This summer we've curated your Baby Bubble playlist with a healthy dose of culture-savvy conversation parents actually want - Parenting Out Loud. 

Because when you become a parent, it changes everything. And that includes how you see what's going on in the world. So, we deep-dive into every trend, headline and viral MumTok through the lens of being just that — a parent.

This week:

  • Gen Z’s latest reason for giving parenthood the side-eye
  • The guilt trip of not loving every second with your kids
  •  Amelia’s campaign to stop parental group texts (bold move)
  • Stacey’s epic analogy for baby number three (you’ll never see tricycles the same way again)

Hit play and welcome to the group chat you won't want to mute.

Plus, it’s our recommendations:

🪩 Stacey recommends a boogie with your friends at a disco club.

🛏️ Amelia is bringing back the tried and tested *checks notes* hot water bottle.

🧇 Monz is a fan of this fool-proof snack: Take 8 Weet-Bix, 1/4 cup cocoa, 1 cup of desiccated coconut and a can of condensed milk. Stir all ingredients together, roll it into balls, roll in coconut and store in a bag in the freezer.

  • Gentle parenting is all over Instagram. But it's not always gentle on parents.
