Are we feeding them enough? Spending enough time with them? Giving them too much screen time? And why the hell do we feel guilty about absolutely everything?
In this episode of What's Milking?, we're diving into one of motherhood's most exhausting emotional roller coasters: mum guilt.
From picky eaters and endless bottles of milk to screen-time battles, childcare decisions and the guilt of simply wanting five minutes to ourselves, we're sharing the everyday parenting struggles that leave us questioning whether we're doing a good enough job.
With two very different parenting styles, we discover that what makes one of us feel guilty doesn't necessarily bother the other. And somehow, despite doing our absolute best, we still find something to beat ourselves up about.
We're talking about the pressure to get everything right, the impossible expectations we put on ourselves, and why taking time for work, exercise or even a bit of mindless scrolling can feel like we're committing a parenting crime.
Plus, we share our usual questionable advice on dealing with guilt, changing our perspective and remembering all the things we actually get right as mums.
Because maybe being a good mum isn't about doing everything perfectly. Maybe it's about showing up, making mistakes, laughing at the chaos and giving ourselves a damn break.
No experts. No filters. Just two mums trying to keep the kids alive, our sanity intact and the guilt somewhat under control.
Episode 1: Who the Hell Am I Now? Motherhood & Losing Yourself
Who were you before becoming a mum? And more importantly, where the hell did that version of you go?
In our very first episode of What's Milking?, we're getting straight into one of motherhood's biggest identity crises: losing the person you thought you were and trying to figure out who you're becoming.
From ambitious, independent, career-driven women to sleep-deprived mums questioning absolutely everything, we share how motherhood has turned our expectations upside down.
We're talking about the reality of birth, careers taking a back seat, the pressure to have it all together, comparing ourselves to other mums, and the unexpected power of finding friendships that make you feel a little less alone.
We also explore what it means to let go of your old identity, accept the chaos and realise that maybe you're not losing yourself at all. Maybe you're becoming someone new.
No experts. No filters. Just two mums figuring it out as we go, with a little wine and some questionable advice along the way.
Welcome to What's Milking? — because motherhood is messy, and we're absolutely milking it.

What's Milking? — Motherhood, Unfiltered.
Two mums, two very different perspectives, and absolutely no idea what we're doing half the time.
What's…
From sleepless nights and parenting meltdowns to navigating relationships, careers and the never-ending question of who we are beyond being mums, we're having the conversations that usually happen over a glass of wine when the kids are finally asleep.
We're not parenting experts, and we're definitely not pretending to have it all figured out. We're just two friends sharing real experiences, different opinions, plenty of laughs and the occasional piece of questionable advice.
Whether you're a new mum, a seasoned parent or simply trying to find yourself somewhere in the chaos, you're welcome here.
Real motherhood. Real conversations. Questionable advice.
And we're absolutely milking it.
