This is it! The last episode of season 2 of Maybe Baby and we're signing off with a megastar.

2020 really was the year of Giovanna Fletcher. Whether it was interviewing the Duchess of Cambridge on her hit podcast Happy Mum, Happy Baby or winning I'm A Celeb or releasing not one but two books - she's a force of nature but one with the sunniest disposition.

We're so glad she could make time for us to chat about her lessons from motherhood for us but also what it was like to be the mother in the castle - and how you may as well have five kids! (Spoiler - we won't be).

You can find Gi's latest books below:

This week is a round up of the second trimester - the highs, the lows, the unreachable parts (more on that in the episode). The last 12 weeks have been such a drastic change so we give you the lowdown on what it's been like. All whilst Boj drinks G&Ts and Kate demands Turkish Delights.

This week we went hunting for Dads and caught ourselves a whopper - it's none other than musician, actor and reality TV conqueror, Matt Willis.

It’s not an exaggeration to say it was amazing speaking to Matt - getting to hear not only about his family life but also the events in his life that helped shape him. We discussed everything from battling addictions, the huge role his wife & kids play in his life and their approach to privacy for their children.

We’re finally here - it’s gender reveal time! The most tricky part of this has been keeping it a secret and we’ve both accidentally let slip at least once or twice (cue a frantic comment delete or swearing work colleagues to secrecy over the last few months).

We don’t want to spoil it for you in case you don’t know already, so listen in; you’ll also hear all about how everything managed to go wrong in our house this week and some top facts about the magical umbilical cord. No wait, come back…!

Not a title we'd ever imagine having to use but that's 2020 for you. We're very excited to introduce the second guest for this season's Maybe Baby, Sky broadcaster Sarah-Jane Mee.

With a second lockdown in place in one shape or form across the UK, we wanted to talk to someone who'd experienced pregnancy and birth in these heavily restricted times.

From baby showers over Zoom to pre-eclampsia complications, Sarah-Jane's unique experiences are a very modern tale of pregnancy in a pandemic and with some handy pointers for Kate, we hope you all find this as hugely insightful as we did.

Moving house - it's one of the main things the universe obliges you to do when you have a kid on the way. You start worrying about things like storage or schools and all of a sudden, you're walking around a garden centre admiring their range of tomato plants on a Sunday morning.

As you can guess, this week's episode is about us joining the chase for space as we prepare to welcome the poop nugget into the world. We share tips on how to survive a house move, why we're already bad parents (to our dogs) and why moving this time was infinitely better than last time.

(Outtakes at the end just because)

We're very excited to welcome our first guest onto Season 2 of Maybe Baby - the wonderful, animal-loving Gemma Atkinson.

With so many thoughts and questions about having a baby when you already have two of the furry kind, we thought Gemma was the perfect guest for this episode. 

How do we introduce the baby to the dogs? When will they start to form a bond? Will our relationship change with the dogs once the poop nugget arrives?

Gemma has some great tips for anyone on a similar journey and tells us why she thought she'd end up with a family of hounds rather than humans and why Gorka might need to stock up on antihistamines.

It's a big moment in any couple's pregnancy - the moment when you first see your baby. This was a time of both joy & trepidation for us, as we both wanted to see our new team member but naturally, we experienced all the fears about the baby’s health that come with any pregnancy.

Find out how we got on and also how we settled on ‘poop nugget’ for our baby’s name while in the womb - oh, and why you shouldn't experiment with fashion online.

Why didn't anyone tell us the first trimester was going to be so hard?

Ok, lots of people did but we didn't listen. From fibbing to family & friends, feeling hungover despite not drinking alcohol, to craving fish finger sandwiches for breakfast, the first 12 weeks are an emotional rollercoaster that we certainly didn't prepare for.

So here's us letting you know what to expect if you've not yet done it; or if you have, hopefully you can relate/laugh at our naivety.
