Everyone says parenting doesn’t come with a handbook. Well, now it does, with the new Mother Tongue podbook.

Your A-Z guide to everything related to parenthood, the hugely successful Mother Tongue podcast has released its first ever audio book which is packed with information and expert advice.

Over 43 chapters, hosts Maryanne and Sarah take you through everything you need to know about getting pregnant, what to expect when you’re expecting, birth and delivery, feeding, healing, plus sleep regressions, potty training, toddler tantrums, parenting rage and more.

Delve into the topics which are not talked about enough from egg freezing and stem cell collection all the way through to women’s health and what to do if your baby ends up in NICU. The podbook even goes into those topics which are sometimes off limits with your closest friends (hello postpartum piles, saggy boobs and constipation!) and the things we wish we all knew about toddler tantrums, introducing a sibling and more.

The Mother Tongue ladies have tracked down the best experts in their fields to give you the most up to date information, with plenty of laugh out loud moments along the way. This is your go-to guide for everything related to the world of being a modern mum or dad.
