I wrote a book called Happy Mum, Happy Baby. I was overwhelmed by the amount of emails and messages I received in response. I didn't want the conversation to end there, so I decided to start a podcast where I invited others to share their experiences. It was a huge success, so for series two I wanted to progress things and film it too. So every Tuesday at 5pm I'll be uploading the video footage from the podcast here... I guess that makes it a vidcast, but let's not get too technical.
The series will be a collection of frank and warm conversations with high-profile mums and dads. We'll be discussing all aspects of parenthood - the highs, the lows, the challenges and rewards. There is no such thing as the perfect parent. Instead, we’re all simply doing our best. It’s time to stop comparing ourselves and champion each other instead. Each episode will be truly unique yet unifying. No topic is out of bounds, and I hope the podcast and supporting video will be essential viewing for any parent seeking solidarity and support.
A huge thank you to Hello Fresh for sponsoring both the podcast and these videos, who make it easy for you to make delicious dinners from scratch - Розваги
I don’t know why but I basically bawled my way through this entire episode 😂😭❤️ Probably something to do with postpartum hormones but I just love Sam & Nic so much! (And obviously you, Giovanna ☺️💖) The three of you bounced off each other so well, this was an amazing episode! Now I need some tissues... 😅 xxx
Anna Saccone thanks Anna. Hope your really well. Nic xxx
I’m not hormonal at all and yet I cried and cried and cried. This was an incredible podcast. ❤️
Aww bless, that was me during this episode but i’ve not got postpartum hormones it’s period hormones instead😭😂love you guys💕💕
While I’m thanking people (because this video has brought out all the feelings), when my second son was born, and I was beside myself and completely overwhelmed, your videos gave me some respite as my eldest loved to watch Emilia and Eduardo’s antics. So thank you for that ☺️ A small thing to most people but so so important to me at a time I really needed it xxx
Strong and inspiring women who know the value of owning and discussing vulnerability. What a force to be reckoned with.x
Out of all the episodes I have watched this has resonated with me the most. I had my son at 14 a 72 hour labour and an episiotomy and forceps. I was lucky I felt that rush of love but also instantly I felt the pressure to be the best and do the best with the worry that he would be taken away. Also I knew I would constantly be judged down to my age. Still at 25 I feel the need to make sure my son looks smart and is wearing nice clothes. Following a bad childhood I also feel the need to be there for everything. I am married not to his dad and I work full time but I will not have lunch breaks for a week so I can do sports days, hospital appointments, class assemblies. We went to look around secondary schools last week and I felt the need to look “posh” and look like I’ve got my shit together because I do not want my child to be judged by my choice! When really I’ve done a great job and he’s a great kid and my experience as a young parent is no different to any parent! Thank you Gi, Nic and Sam for sharing and it’s helped me!
Thank you ladies, being a survivor of domestic violence you have given me hope that my children will understand one day..
Goddess bless these women for telling some truths about new motherhood that so many people are scared to tell, because so many people refuse to hear it. And I doubt that any sane, intelligent person would try to say that they aren't *great* mothers, in spite of the rocky beginnings. This is a gift!
I loved this one! Would like to see Anna Saccone on one day to talk about her eating disorders and pregnancy etc.
I think this was the best pod cast ever. So honest and true and pure . You three are a pure example of motherhood
That sudden wave of sadness when breastfeeding is called D-MER. Good to hear it mentioned here because it's one of those things women can feel very alone with.
Truly love how they talk about their stepfather! Amazing podcast!
Awww this episode really got me. I don’t have children but I really resonated with the story of the struggles their Mum had. My mum Brought my brother and I up alone with no grandparents to help her and worked full time, makes me appreciate even more how selfless and wonderful she was and still is xxxx
Loved this!!! How is Sam just over 40 though? She looks so good and glowing..wow! Both are such strong amazing women 💪🏻
It's actually the same type of love my mom and her sister have. They never say things like i love you but always here to help each other out.
I loved watching this and hearing Sam and Nic talk. The first time I saw one of Sam's make-up videos, she was heavily pregnant and I've been following the Chapman sisters, seeing their kids and families grow ever since
Only 8mins in so far but I felt EXACTLY the same as Nic when my daughter was born.. Like "Ok, here she is.. Someone want to hold her? Someone help??" And the same for feeding, every night waking up and expecting this wonderful connection that just wasn't there.. And we do always feel the need to say "I love them so much!", to justify ourselves and to hope that others don't judge us.. My daughter is 1 now and I still have days when it's incredibly hard.. But seeing her take her first steps makes me so proud, her smile squeezes my heart.. Of couse we love our children, but sometimes that bond takes time, and sometimes it's a really hard job being a parent.
The hardest job ever. My son is 11 months old and whilst I am enjoying it more it is equally getting harder now he is so mobile and into everything!
My eyes were filled throughout this podcast. I’ve followed you ladies for so long and it’s so comforting hearing you speak together, I feel like giving myself a pat on the back for choosing the right people to listen/watch haha! I’m 23 and so many things apply to me, just in feeling or just feeling like I’m listening to friends. 💛
Just love listening to all the happy mum happy baby guests everyone brings something new and also sooooo relatable to it thanks for sharing all your stories and making talking about the not so nice things a normal thing and not feeling guilty of admitting its not OK right now or that you might need help at times 💕
When I thought I couldn’t love these ladies anymore...THIS! ❤️
I’ve often wanted to hear Sam & Nic talk about motherhood. They’re so real in their videos and this just made my day. Wish it was filmed 18 months ago when I had a newborn. Thanks for being genuine and honest.
I watched this, laughing, crying and i even cleaned my bathroom and rode my exercise bike!! This is the best thing i have watched in such a long time xxx
I’m watching this as a mother and a midwife who specialises in perinatal mental health. So much of this discussion I has resonated profoundly with me. Thank you so much for discussing these things. It’s so so important.
It was so interesting to hear you say about depression with breastfeeding because it was exactly the same for me. I felt like I had to do it but I hated it with a passion and it would make me feel so isolated and trapped and depressed. My bond with my son increased so much as soon as i decided to stop breastfeeding ❤ best decision I made for my postnatal mental health x
This was just the best episode ever!!! I could watch it again for a second time and I’ve only just finished it. So amazing 😭
The most inspiring podcast i think i have ever watched, unbelievably good! Thank you ladies for being so open and honest! We should all be able to admit we need help and be able to open up to each other without judgement, we're all in the same boat! xxx
3 most inspiring women! 1 hour of just pure honesty. One of my favourite podcasts ever! Just amazing. X
I loved how honest this was cried my eyes out loved it best one yet xxx
This series has been so good so many completely different experiences of being a parent. Loved this one so much.
Loved this so much! I love the series but I think this was my fav so far. Strong women ❤
This episode made me sob and laugh in equal measure, what an amazing episode - full to the brim of empowerment.
Loved this and enjoyed that it was so much more than ‘I just had a baby’, it was the whole picture. Strong girls, very inspiring x
What a great episode of bump 😊. Loved hearing Sam & Nics story just so fascinating listening to them 💕
This was such a good video. I'm 21 and not thinking about being a parent AT ALL but this was such an interesting chat and really uplifting and honest too. Plus the chat was just so flowing, and articulated so well by you guys. It was a real joy to watch.
Found this the most touching out of all the episodes, thoroughly enjoyed this podcast x
That was fantastic. The best one yet. X
I can honestly say that was the best podcast vlog I've ever watched 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕
Totally understand when Sam said about scanning the room and picking up on the emotions of people... For me it was an aggressive mother, walking on eggs shells etc.... BUT.... I've healed from alot of pain of the past and helping my dad care for her as she now has dementia and Altziemers. We are survivors of certain traumas in our childhoods and that has made me stronger... I'm not able to have children unfortunately which is a devastating blow but I thank God for my niece and nephew 💕 💕 💕 I also work with young people 😊 so I am blessed 😊 💕 thank you so much Giovanna xxx
@Lucy W 💕 sometimes giovanna 's guests are more uplifting but I think this was was more informative and I could really identify with it. Xx
They didn't moan at all. I think its quite unfair to say that they're not allowed to comment on the negative without it being 'moaning'. They were having an honest chat that had a positive and uplifting undertone. Can't you tell how happy Pixiwoo are, they literally said as much. I think its a shame that you have missed the point and are turning this into something so much more negative than it was ever ever going to be.
Thank you thank you thank you for your raw honesty Sam, Nic and Giovanna!
LOVE THIS! One of the best videos I’ve watched on UA-cam! Xxx
I loved this. I've always adored Sam and Nic and their Pixiwoo channel, but having seen this, I've seen them in a different light and have even more respect for them than before.
My favourite podcast yet. Love all 3 amazing people!!! Xxx 😍
Really enjoyed watching this...
Was nice to hear Nic talk about depression and breastfeeding - this happened with my 2nd son after breastfeeding my 1st for 9months. I thought i was doing something wrong so i stopped as well... lovely ladies xxx
Absolutely loved this podcast, what wonderful women you all are! 💕
Loved this so much
You three are some of my favourite youtubers, you’re all so genuinely lovely so I’m really excited to watch this 😁
So far I completely agree with you! Those first few months you feel like you’re just trying to keep your baby alive, youre hormonal and panicked because you don’t know what you’re doing, you’re solely responsible and no one prepares you for how tough it will be. You go from being independent the first time round to suddenly not being able to do anything you want when you want to. Everyone around you seems to have perfect babies with perfect routines and you do feel useless. You don’t bond straightaway. You’re just trying to keep your baby alive and you bawl your eyes out because all you want is for the baby to sleep in their bassinet for 15 mins so you can shower. And then you get through that period and it all becomes much easier and you fully realise the love and the bond you have for your baby. But it’s not always there instantly. Love how real you all are ❤️
Really good interview ☺love Nic and Sam !
this is potentially one of my favourite things on youtube
I've just turned 25 and I've been with my partner for just over 7 months. We met on a dating website and the majority of the pictures I had was me with make-up on. On our first date, I didn't wear make-up with the view that he will have to like me for the real me. My skin isn't perfect. I have big pores and blackheads and spots! But he didn't care and even to this day he looks at me, make-up free and just tells me I'm beautiful and that I don't need make-up. Being the real faced me was the reason (I think) that he liked me.
Really loved this. I like the idea of wearing the clothes u have everyday and not keeping it for like a special occasion
I loooooove these
Thank you I have 4 kids all older now my youngest is 12 my oldest is 20 I felt everything just not all the same time
I love your podcast and I love Sam and nic , I also have ms but because I’ve had it before I’m pregnant ( I’m 16 weeks) but I know that when I have the baby there is a chance of me having a relapse but aslong as I have a okay labour and my baby is healthy I know if I have a relapse I’ll just deal with it with my boyfriend by my side aslong as my baby is okay nic is an inspiration to me ❤️
Samantha Wood best of luck my darling I’m sure you will be absolutely fine. The less stress the better. X
Samantha should consider doing makeup ASMR videos.....her voice is soooo relaxing and peaceful. I could listen to her alllllllllll day.
37 chews...my grandfather did this too. He was my favourite person ever, this made me think of him. Great podcast♥️
You are very inspiring
What you suffered with your first labour Nic was medical violence/assault. They should have asked permission before performing any procedure on you for a start, but doing that against the advice of the midwives just because she had to be somewhere else is unforgivable!
So interesting that in the UK, and elsewhere I suppose, you have to fight for a C-section. Here in South Africa it's the more the norm, more people choose to have C-sections than natural births
Pixie Woo, please get a classical homeopath to help with MS
It’s strange you mention about the sadness feeling when breastfeeding. I love bf and am still bf now at 7 month but I still get that down feeling, not as in that I don’t like it I think it’s something to do with how my hormones work and when the let down comes I’ve heard people say how it releases certain hormones and I think for me that’s just how it reacts in my body. But it doesn’t bother me because I know what it is doing. Just do people know you can get through that. X
Also a bit TMI but it’s also for some reason always gave me that ‘depressed’ feeling even when my partner has touched my nipples. So strange.
I think it was Adulf Hitler who decided pink was for girls,. (I might be wrong). We have stuck with this idea of putting people into categories ever since xx
They haven't posted anything since 3 weeks now.
This is the feminism I love and support.
I’m disgusted that doctor did that just because she wanted to get away - you need be selfless to be a good doctor/midwife
Is the doctor allowed to just decide to cut you? Are you not allowed to say no? That sounds just awful
Alice X And
Mary Brady ?
Alice X I’m not sure. I didn’t really understand what was happening I just wanted him out fine. That bit happens so fast. X
pixiwoo bless you, it mustve been horrible for you. Glad you were ok x
Alice X they are not allowed to it without your consent.
Not the sort of thing you should be saying when Lily is at such a tender age - that you didn’t bond with her when she was born ...
Lily probably doesn't watch her mom's interviews, plus she doesn't remember that time. I think it shows that Sam is past that, if she still felt uncomfortable, she wouldn't mention it. Her sincerity might seem harsh, but it will help many women.
