Kelly flagged up  the  uncomfortableness for parents in showbiz   to say no to work, but really does time matter ? and while some celebs like to portray that they didn't have to make a choice between work or having a family,  is it time for  honesty from high profile mums about how they achieve their  work/ kid balance ? and lots of snot out laughter as usual , stick on the kettle, unload the dishwasher  its a nice short one !  you can follow Kelly at KellyConvey.com and catch her live ! Edited by Alex HollandYou can follow the Funny Mummies podcast on IG @funnymummies_podcastFacebook - Funny Mummies podcastHatty on @hattyashdown on IG & TwitterGemma on @gemma_beagley on IG & TwitterPLEASE  RATE, SUBSCRIBE AND SHARE - it really does help more people find us -  so why not share the laughter .
