Hi everyone, welcome back to doing it, the Sex and Relationships podcast where sex has

never been so nerdy with me, your host, Hannah Witten.

This is the last episode of season five and the last episode before I'm taking a break for my

maternity leave. So it's just going to be a casual sit-down chat with me. And I've got a whole

bunch of questions to answer from listeners about pregnancy and parenting plans and all of that

good stuff. But first, some real sexy housekeeping about just like how

this last season has gone, being pregnant whilst recording most of it, and future plans for

the podcast going forwards. So you may remember that last summer we took a bit of

a break from the podcast and that was to kind of like do a fun rebrand and get like some new

colours and everything and there was much excitement and I was bringing video to the podcast as well.

And then just before launch and partway through recording like the first batch of five interviews that I had with guests for the beginning

of season five I found out that I was pregnant which was very exciting but then I started feeling

like absolute shite. And it was a

real struggle to get those episodes out, to kind of like finish off recording those. And I did not

know when I would be feeling better and when I'd be able to like actually schedule in more guest episodes.

And so the video stopped as well because once I was feeling better, I was like, I need to manage my workload.

But we managed to push out those first five episodes and then had a unplanned,

unscheduled break until I was feeling better. Thank you so much for your patience with that.

I know that like when I took a break for health reasons, some people who thought maybe it was

because I was pregnant, but I'm also very grateful

that no one like was publicly saying that or at least not in places that I could see.

So I very much appreciate that I didn't see anybody's speculation about that at the time.
