Not Not trying is an honest, hilarious, and at times, heart wrenching look at trying to conceive in your late thirties. Through this eight part series, best mates Erin Richards and Tara Bethan take us through the ups and downs of baby making-- from mucus to meltdowns, doulas to dildos, ayahuasca to acupuncture and everything in between…
#8 Series sum ups, your lovely messages, potential polisistic ovaries and what’s next…
It’s the final episode! Thank you so much for your love and support so far.
In our final week we catchup on the past few months. Work out where we both are, and discuss what ’s next for us and the podcast.
Plus Southpark, cold bingo wings, Tara goes French naked, and Mr Sowerberry’s been in contact!
