0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Made by Momma's The Podcast, I'm Zoe and I'm Julia and we're here
0:05.6	talking all things parenthood, tips and tricks, products we love and brands that we can't live
0:10.6	without. Let's get into it. Good morning. Hi you. Yeah, I'm okay, actually probably
0:17.9	just be really honest. I don't really feel particularly wonderful and had a big cry this
0:22.6	morning. I just feel like the juggle is quite intense some days and I'm sure every
0:29.8	working parent feels this but I'm on a different shift this week at heart which is so great
0:33.6	to do a run of shows. I think I'm doing like 10 in a row which is brilliant but this shift,
0:39.6	mark shift in the evening is 7 till 10 and I have to be there about 5 which means I have to leave

1:24.4	cry and I just put him on Dozer with Dozer and I was just like I had to walk out the room it was
1:28.6	really intense and then he got really upset but you know what it's difficult right because it's
1:32.9	just really tricky. You know what it's so difficult to know what like what is right and this kind
1:39.5	of it is you know something we're going to discuss today like the things that you don't realize
1:44.0	about parenting that are so hard like I find this as well like I used to obviously before I had
1:51.1	Gigi I used to leave the house at like 7 in the morning so I would never see Axel before I left
