It takes a village to raise a child… but let’s be honest, a vineyard helps. Join two U.K. mums and best friends, Vicky & Emma, as we navigate the highs, lows and ‘what the heck?!’s of parenting babies, toddlers and everything in between - armed with emotional support wine and zero expertise.
From fertility struggles and baby classes to threenagers and the importance of ‘mum time’, we’re keeping it real, raw and ridiculously honest. Expect laughter, over sharing and wine fuelled chats that feel like a girls night in.
We’re not here to give advice - we’re just surviving motherhood one glass at a time.

In this episode, we dive into the early days of parenthood - from recovering after a c-section vs. a home birth, to the emotional rollercoaster of hormones, sweat, and sleep deprivation. We talk paternity leave (spoiler: it’s never enough), breastfeeding pain (toe-curling, anyone?), jaundice, nocturnal routines, and the obsession with tracking everything via apps.
We ask the big questions: To hat or not to hat? Is there actually a definitive list of what babies need? And what makes a visitor “good” or “bad” in those fragile early days?
Plus, we share the joy and anxiety of leaving the baby bubble for the first time - and yes, we talk about when we started drinking again.
Vicky’s playing sommelier with two open bottles (Aldi Rioja for Vicky and Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc for Emma).
We’ve lived it, logged it, and now we’re pouring a glass and talking about it - because sometimes it really does take a vineyard. Cheers!
