Episode notes

Andrea Jenkyns and our host, Claire Newell have something in common. They’re both reluctant ‘geriatric mothers’, having given birth over the age of 35. The Yorkshire MP tells Claire how, three years on, she’s struggling to shift the ‘baby brain’, and why being married to a fellow parliamentarian wreaks havoc on childcare.
