Ep 2 Did We Always Want Kids? Our Journey to Becoming Moms

Episode description:Did you always know you wanted to be a mum? In this episode, the hosts get honest about where they each started — one who never felt the pull until her thirties, and one who always knew but let life lead the way. They share how their relationships shaped their paths to parenthood, what their fertility journeys looked like, and the very different (and very real) moments they found out they were pregnant.They also talk about what it means to raise children as expats in Denmark — a country that makes space for slow living, long maternity leave, and strollers on the metro (terrifying or not). The episode closes with their mum high and mum low of the week: toddler dinner meltdowns, unpredictable nap schedules, a first outdoor play session, and the peace that comes with finally making a decision about daycare.Themes covered:Did she always want children?Career vs family mindsetFertility, age, and staying stress-freeFinding out you're pregnant — the real reactionExpat parenting in DenmarkMum highs and lowsTimestamps:0:00Introduction — Expectations vs Reality of Motherhood0:47Did We Always Want Kids?2:09Marriage, Family & Our Relationships7:22Trying to Conceive & Fertility18:33How We Found Out We Were Pregnant30:00Raising a Family in Denmark35:38Mum High & Mum Low of the Week
