SIM Ep 342 Chops 149: Pregnant Then Screwed

Ever wondered why some of the women around you just can't seem to catch a break in the workplace? In the fourth and final episode of our series on pregnancy, Jen catches up with Aceil Haddad, head of comms at the pregnancy and maternity rights charity Pregnant Then Screwed. They chat about the problems facing women in the workplace who are pregnant, on maternity leave or have returned to work after having kids, as well as the "comedy" tropes associated with motherhood and older women, feeling seen, and just how many children Boris Johnson may or may not have.
