Month 7: We're leaving! (for a bit!)

This week on Myternity Leave, we've hit a few solid milestones. Literally! Charlie’s finally got a high chair, he’s trying actual food, and now I’m casually dealing with finding black strings in his nappy.

Aside from that, we’re packing for the UK (no big deal), and taking a little mid-season break. Make sure you’re following the podcast so you don’t miss when we’re back and make sure to recommend to a friend*. (*preferably one who doesn't mind a bit of poo chat).

Join the ultimate 12 month rollercoaster as your friendly host Samantha Hannah (stand-up comedian and traditionally what's known as a "career gal") documents 365 days of parental leave.

A maternity leave diary in podcast form—about fumbling through the end of pregnancy, preparing for parenthood, and discovering if comedy can prep you for the world’s toughest crowd: a newborn.

But this isn’t a “how-to” on motherhood. This is not a parenting podcast. It's *for* the parents. And about identity—how it shifts and flips as your life faces one of its biggest changes yet.
