Hello, this is The Secret Mum Club.

0:05.8

I'm Safina.

0:06.4

And I'm Emma.

0:08.0

And welcome to...

0:09.4

Which I do without looking.

0:11.9

Welcome to your Thursday's episode where we get to squeeze in all the extra bits and bobs from the week.

0:16.4

Squeeze your bits, honey.

0:17.7

All your comments, stories, thoughts.

0:24.3

Any questions as well? Get those in here.

0:30.3

I think it's fair to say we don't know this intro as well as we know the main episode one.

0:34.7

We're trying to do it to camera, but we can't. We don't have to do for this one though, do we?

0:54.3

All your comments, thoughts, funny stories. And questions. Oh, and questions. Again, all your comments, thoughts, questions and fun stories. To keep you going through the weekend. Showing your phone! We did it. Yeah, that one's not even for camera, but we just wanted to test ourselves. That was orcs, wasn't it? That was uncomfortable to listen to. If you made it through, drop us a star. It's time for another. Correspondence Corner.

1:05.1

So Emma, let's have number one. All right, this one is from Liv. Let's have number one.

1:11.0

How many do we have?

1:12.2

First one? Yeah. Sorry. I'm cracked up on coffee. Hi, girlies. I had to write in about the bitey twins. I'm not a twin mum, but I did full-time nannying for twin boys. Stunning. From newborn until they were three. Wow. I also think biting back works, but only if they bite you, not they bite someone else, which is what you were saying.

1:31.4

Agreed. Agreed. It's like the love triangle of biting. Too confusing. No. With twins is all about jealousy and attention seeking. So when you take the attention away and give it to the other one, they soon learn what's more desirable than biting.

1:45.0

If all else fails, I hope they take up a career in shark interpretation and call it quits,

1:49.5

I reckon. Hope this helps. So my only thing with that then is then do they get more angry

1:56.2

that you've given that one attention? So if we're saying it's attention, are we then taking the one that's

2:03.4

been bitten away, hugging him, to then make the biter more angry? Or are we taking the biter away to

2:08.8

hug him? Yeah, I think what she's saying is reward the non-biter with attention and the other one will go,

2:14.5

or maybe for doing something else, something good. And the other one will go, okay, so I get attention by doing that, but not by biting. But then if the biter one is biting the other one and he's craving attention, we're then going to give the one that he's bitten attention to which, wouldn't he bite him again? To be like, that has to be. Yeah, because the other one's getting attention, not him. So he's like, oh.
