    It's the way Shikie explains the questions to shiv when he doesn't understand for me😍,
    The support is just on another level, kama si ivi mimi sitaki,,🤗😍

    Ben is such a good host. How he checks in on shiv and shikie to see that they are comfortable and okay with the questions.
    Wanjiru promised us looks and hair in this season and she is serving

    This was such a lovely discussion. We need Simani's back now for their relationship experience questions aside the Kids. They bring really good insights and I love their perspective on life in general 🤗

    In Germany the maternity leave is mandatory 3yrs until the kid/kids starts kindergarten, and on that note a parent will be allowed to stay at home until the 1st born is 8yrs under which the government will be financially responsible for the family

    This was a good choice of topic and you did great to bring Shiv and Shiku to the episode. Hubby and I have two kids. Wanjiru and Ben, when the Lord blesses you with Children, you will love them so much and wonder what life would be without them.
    I stayed with our son for one year before going back to work. This was the best decision ever. Being in the states enables us to bond with our children more especially because we don’t have a nanny currently.We have a 4 month baby now and am also planning to staying with her the longest possible. I received maternity pay from the state and I am grateful for that.
    Wanjiru and Ben, you guys will be amazing parents.Pray for them even before they are here and God will give you the knowledge and wisdom to bring them up and the resources you need.He will provide.

    In Austria we get to choose paid maternity leave between 1 year and 2 years and fully insured during that time. The amount paid Is equal for everyone so if you choose 1 year you get your money divided into 12 months and if you choose 24 months you get your money dived into 24months.

    I don't know if it's just me, but Season 2 is off to some incredible start. The discussions are so on point. They get better episode after episode. Sometimes I want to pause the episode pia mimi ni'contribute kitu. Lol. Wanjiru and Ben, thank you for opening your lives to us and sharing your perspectives.

    These two couples are just amazing, interesting and of course authentic..i'm learning a lot..thanks to you Ben & Njiru for allowing that to happen..Hope you invite them again..Much love guys🫂🧡

    @ruthnganga6598 Před rokem +2

    In the US we get just 6 week’s maternity leave, sometimes I think it’s a big contributor to Postpartum Depression because just before you’ve come to terms with having a baby, you’re back at work

  • @naomimaina3428
    @naomimaina3428 Před rokem +3

    @judyjepchumba8619 Před rokem +5

    One question you didn't get to ask ,What do you think about this idea of a "boy" is a must have among your children I would have really wanted to hear especially from shikie and shiv now that they are girl parents.

  • @waihiga124
    @waihiga124 Před rokem +2

    If men were the ones giving birth and nursing babies, organizations would have fully staffed and resourced child care departments with a 1:1 trained nanny: child ratio. Hiyo species inajipenda sana.

  • @simplyanampiu8850
    @simplyanampiu8850 Před rokem +5

    Aki Ben honestly is funny. I love laughing mehn and at times this is place to come. This topic today has been very interesting. I’m 18 years and I think this topic is more of reflection than planning, I mean, I’m only 18. It made me realise so much about certain things with my parents hear and there and see the bigger basically. I love it!

  • @daisyjan5451
    @daisyjan5451 Před rokem +2

    This is a very important and sensitive topic mostly ignored... I just love the way Shikie explains to Shiv then then how Ben relates to Wanjiru too😍😘
    The 3 months isn't quite enough especially when your toddler had to spend the 1st month in NBU but all in all we survive regardless

  • @achieng726

    @lilywhite8029 Před rokem +1

    I look forward to seeing Wanjiru as a mum. Relax gal, don't read too much, don't think too much about it, it comes, you got this. Trust you me, you will never be ready, I was like you but now much better.
    All the best, nice podcast

  • @phoebemwaniki8298
    @phoebemwaniki8298 Před rokem +4

    Quite a good podcast episode from you,I agree with Shikie that when the baby is planned for,the recovery journey is easier and I would add a little bit faster because your mind was ready for the journey,(this could be different from other ladies but it's my experience,am 4 months old since I gave birth) on the maternity part, I will going back to work on Monday 24th after spending 4 months,again I used my cumulative leave days to have a forth month leave and though one cannot be ready for this, having a positive mind,a good nanny,a supportive partner and God's Grace makes the transition a little bit easier.

  • @lilywhite8029
    @lilywhite8029 Před rokem +1

    @nancykahuho Před rokem +1

    It was beautiful to see different dynamic of couples and also how they communicate and relate with each other and with another couple . In short the power play is equal.
    Hands down , Ben is that friend that we all want , completely authentic , funny and a great human .

  • @christabelkathure4634

    I love this episode 😍....I love how the question of what traits you would like/not like your kids to pick up from you allowed you a safe space to speak about your flaws without feeling pressured..Keep these guests coming pleeeeease🤗 I love Shiv and Shiki😍😍

    You will be shocked to know dads only get 4 days. Whether it falls on the weekend or a holiday, it doesn't matter. 4 days! Moms get the same, 90 days including weekends. (in Rwanda)

    When ciku said her fear is not being to protect kids from the mess up ppl in the world she reminded me of a fear i live with.... I have taken the role of dad for my niece since she was a few minute old upto now she is 10 and watch over her like a hawk...on the flipside i have a kid who 1 /1/2 that i have never seen because some shit happened. The thought of me being a position to protect her makes my stomach turn. It a horrible feeling.

    weeee, that 3 months thing, for me it was not leave, i had my baby while still at uni, luckily I was for the long holiday and stupidly decided to breast feed till a week to school opening, I then bought a pump, and it was the most uncomfortable thing to use, then came the baby rejecting the bottle.... I voluntarily lost weight, i did not need the gym

    Child before marriage? For me it is get married as first option; explore marriage as second option; co-parent as third option; meant nothing is not an option in my mind but the worst possible outcome.
