In The Thick – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Hiiii! We’re Harriet + Charlie. We’re two new mums who found each other in early pregnancy. 

New motherhood is all consuming and there’s a lot of figuring out to do.There’s a lot out there pre- baby +  a ton of advice and expertise, but where is the chat about what happens after the baby arrives?

Early motherhood is layered and we figured other new (+ future) mums might be feeling like us - so we wanted to create a space to cover more than base level and to not so quietly say - this is f*cking hard!

Yes there will be some chat about sleep, weaning + milestones, but we also talk about the loneliness that comes on a random Wednesday evening, the baby steps out into our new life, the back to work juggle, experiencing grief and loss, the expectations (ours and of wider culture), how our relationships have changed. How we’ve fundamentally changed. 

We’re building a community for anyone feeling in the thick  of it, right now. Welcome in <3 

In this episode, we introduce ourselves + talk about what we wish existed after the baby arrived. We cover our journeys as two career-driven women who both left home and moved to London 15 + years ago to make a life for ourselves in the city. We talk about our first meet, where we instantly bonded + built a friendship rooted in honesty + humour during one of life's most overwhelming transitions.

From navigating newborn chaos while knee-deep in Reddit threads and social media noise, to processing grief, making new friends and the pressure to have it all together - this is the type of conversation we hope you’ll love for honest, warm, and zero surface-level fluff. Welcome to In the Thick.
