One Thing For Tonight: Lower the bar when you're exhausted with Dr Punam Krishan
Saison 2 · Épisode 4
jeudi 29 octobre 2026 • Durée 11:27
Running on no sleep and wondering how you'll get through tomorrow? When you're exhausted, the last thing you need is another impossible to-do list.
In this short episode of The Late-Night Parent Club, host Minah Shannon is joined once again by NHS GP, mum of two and author Dr Punam Krishan for one simple reminder: when you're running on empty, lower the bar before blaming yourself.
Dr Punam shares a practical checklist for those overwhelming parenting days. Have you eaten something nourishing? Had enough water? Stepped outside for some fresh air? Spoken to another adult or found even 10 minutes for yourself?
It's not about doing everything. It's about recognising that your needs matter too, even when you're caring for a baby.
They also discuss why asking for help isn't a sign of failure, how to stop putting yourself last and where to look for support if you don't have family nearby.
Whether you're in the middle of a night feed or facing another day on very little sleep, this is a gentle reminder to give yourself some of the care you give everyone else.

Why being an exhausted mum is about more than sleep with Dr Punam Krishan
Saison 1 · Épisode 3
mardi 27 octobre 2026 • Durée 23:25
Exhausted but can't sleep when your baby finally settles? Snapping at your partner, feeling overwhelmed or wondering why you don't feel like yourself anymore? Sleep deprivation in early parenthood affects so much more than how tired you feel.
This week on The Late-Night Parent Club, host Minah Shannon is joined by NHS GP, mum of two, Strictly Come Dancing star and author of The Motherload, Dr Punam Krishan, for an honest conversation about the physical and emotional toll of exhaustion.
They explore why "sleep when the baby sleeps" isn't always helpful, how broken sleep can affect your mood, confidence and relationships, and why finding moments of rest can matter just as much as getting some sleep.
Dr Punam also explains how to recognise when persistent low mood, anxiety or feeling disconnected could be a sign to seek support, rather than something to put down to tiredness.
Plus, poet and dad Harry Baker shares a moving message about the newborn days, including poems from his book Tender, inspired by the first 100 days of his son's life.
If you're running on empty, struggling to switch off or feeling lost in the demands of new parenthood, this episode is for you.

No One Warns You About the Night Shift with The Modern Midwife
Saison 1 · Épisode 1
mardi 20 octobre 2026 • Durée 29:04
Why does 3am feel so much heavier with a newborn? Host Minah Shannon is joined by The Modern Midwife, Marie Louise, a senior midwife and the bestselling author of The Modern Midwife’s Guide series, to talk about newborn nights, sleep deprivation and why you’re not the only one awake.
Together they explain why the night hours feel so lonely, why the exhaustion and memory fog are normal, what partners can do during night feeds, and why a second or third baby can be just as hard as the first.
They also cover why “postpartum lasts forever” and how to find your support network. Broadcaster, DJ and author Gemma Cairney drops in with a message for late-night parents: trust your gut.
