S01E04: My Mother Said...you're 30, if not now, when??
Manage episode 379656062 series 3508128
When is the best time to have a kid? Most South Asian mothers (or aunties) will answer even before they are asked, "definitely before you turn 30". As babies from frozen embryos and eggs to older parents become more common, more couples are deciding parenthood is not for them. Are our mummies and aunties getting onboard?
Join Ankita & Nalini as they join the very prickly author of Everyday Revolution (a book they loved), Amrita Purkayastha as she shares her unusual journey into motherhood; after years of relentless planning to be child-free! Did the poojas and havans work their charm rendering careful contraception useless, or did Amrita change her mind? Tune in to find out.
