The Choice to Go Parenting Solo with The...

About this episode

If you have anyone under 5 in your life, you might know Caterina Mete as the Red Wiggle. Why on earth would Chloe and Ellidy be interviewing a Wiggle?

Well, one of the topics that comes up regularly in our facebook group, is having a child on your own. What to do when you're yet to meet a suitable partner but you know without a doubt you want kids?

This topic has been on our ideas list for a long time, and when we heard that Caterina was pregnant with twins at 42, after deciding to go it solo via IVF and a sperm donor, we knew this was a conversation we wanted to have.
