How much do you really know about what happens in the delivery suite? Louise and Hannah put parents-to-be Sam and Alice to the test with a quick-fire “Parent Prep Check", and it instantly descends into hilarious chaos. From the dreaded question “what is the plug?” (spoiler: it’s not a bath plug…) to crowning, meconium, and the mysterious fishing net in the midwife’s suite; the quiz is equal parts educational and unhinged.
There’s plenty of “why did nobody tell me this?” parenting reality too: the waxy newborn coating (vernix) and why it matters, the bodily surprises babies can arrive with, and the kind of facts that make you laugh and squirm at the same time. Sam’s book-reading finally pays off… while Alice realises she might want to revise.
If you’re pregnant, trying for a baby, or just love a brutally honest parenting chat, this bonus ep is a perfect bite-sized watch - ridiculous, real, and somehow genuinely useful. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
