This week, things get painfully real. Sophie straps Jamie into a labour simulator — and let’s just say, he might finally understand why women deserve every snack, foot rub, and gold medal going. Will he tough it out like a hero, or crumble faster than you can say “contractions”?
ALSO, Sophie’s dreaming of a cervical sweep, Jamie’s OBSESSED with breast milk, and we get a graphic description of Sophie’s bits. You’ve been warned.
PLUS, the couple reminisce about their wild Freshers Week partying, and Sophie doesn’t hold back telling Jamie he’s absolutely not ready for parenthood.

| 0:00.0 | Well, hello everybody. Welcome to Nearly Parents. My name is Jamie and this is... |
| 0:04.3 | My name is Sophie. And on the menu today, Sophie gets Theresa May and Alison Hammond mixed up. |
| 0:10.8 | We ask very important questions like should you bath newborns in mud. |
| 0:15.3 | I try a labour simulator and I also describe Sophie's vagina. Get ready for all of that on Nearly Parents, |
| 0:22.2 | so welcome on in. |
| 0:26.8 | This week's episode is brought to you by AirB&B. Now, Sof, it's not long until we are a family |
| 0:33.0 | of three and I've been thinking back to some of our amazing trips we've had together. |
| 0:36.9 | Do you know which trip was one of my favourite? |
| 0:38.5 | Ibitha. |
| 0:54.1 | Yes. It was really cosy and it was just so sweet and it felt like we had our own little apartment. And it was in like the north of the island. It was just amazing. We could get to the sea. And it makes you think, doesn't it? One of the best trips happen because someone decided to put their lovely home on Airbnb for other people to enjoy. Well, you know that a few of our friends |
| 0:55.7 | also host on Airbnb as well. Yeah, for sure. They all say how easy it is to get started and the extra money that they make helps go towards future holidays. It's honestly, it's such a smart way to make use of your empty space. So, why not let your home do some work for you? Bit of a win-win situation |

| 1:27.5 | October 10th is World Mental Health Day and this year BetterHelp is shining a light on the people |
| 1:32.7 | who make such a huge difference. Therapists and therapy in general is incredible. It really |
| 1:39.0 | shifted my perspective, my understanding, the way I coped. Those moments only happen because of the therapist on the other side. |
| 1:45.9 | Exactly. Behind every journey as a therapist who listened, ask the right questions and help someone move forward. |
| 1:51.8 | And BetterHelp has connected over 5 million people worldwide with that kind of support. |
| 1:56.0 | With over 30,000 qualified therapists globally, BetterHelp helps you find the right fit. |
| 2:01.4 | And if it's not working, you can switch to a different therapist anytime because the right therapist |
