This week we profile the host of Mamamia's podcast Me After You and jewellery designer Laura Byrne, mum to 15-month-old Marlie Mae, who is currently expecting baby number two.
Pregnancy was thankfully a fairly straightforward affair for Laura Byrne, although she was surprised by some of the changes her body went.
With partner Matt away filming for work during the third trimester, Laura was happy to have some time to herself before the baby arrived.

Two weeks after her due date and with her baby still happy inside her tummy, Laura and Matt were booked into the Royal Hospital for Women in Sydney for an induction.
“At 7am that morning I was all ready to go but I had to sit and wait for Matt in the car who still hadn’t packed his hospital bag!
