Welcome to The Borne Podcast, a deep dive into the world of pregnancy, birth, and beyond. Join Ellie Gibson, Caro Tasker and Professor Mark Johnson as they uncover real birth stories, provide expert insights from leading scientists, and engage in in-depth discussions exploring women’s reproductive health, the challenges of pregnancy, and the complexities of premature birth.
In this episode, Ellie, Caro and Mark are joined by Jessica Fostekew - the excellent comedian and mum to 9 year old Rudy - to discuss expectation versus reality when it comes to pregnancy and childbirth. Here, Jess speaks openly and honestly - and in a very funny way - about her experiences in childbirth. This episode contains strong language.
