What is essential? (WaterAid x Stylist special)

Welcome to Baby On The Brain, a podcast brought to you by Stylist magazine - dedicated to the big life questions you face when you find out you’re about to become a parent. Hosted by Stylist's Digital Content Director, Fliss, this podcast began back in 2021 with a baby on the way. That baby is just three months off celebrating her second birthday now and we suddenly feel very old (where did the time go!?).For this special bonus episode, we’ve teamed up with the international charity WaterAid to talk about the essentials every new mum should have – discussing what’s helped others mentally and physically through birth and those early stages of motherhood. This episode is co-hosted by Stylist's Lisa Smosarski, and features guests Shakira Akabusi and Dr Amalina Bakri.Season 2 of Baby On The Brain begins on March 9th, and we kick off with Tobi Oredein and Ashley James!

Deciding to start a family is an exciting time for many, but the reality of seeing a positive pregnancy test can send many women into a spiral of sleepless nights way before a baby arrives to do that for them. But this podcast isn’t about the practicalities of sleep or feeding, it’s not about birth or your changing body, this is all about YOU as a woman with a mind all of your own.From identity to parental leave, to the inequality of the sacrifices men and women are still expected to make, each episode of Baby On The Brain tackles one of the conundrums that keeps many mums-to-be awake at night when they find out their life is about to change.In this thought-provoking but light-hearted new podcast, Stylist’s Fliss Thistlethwaite - a mum-to-be grappling with her own questions - meets other pregnant women to chat about their concerns; finding experts and mothers who have answers to their middle-of-the-night worries.
