What’s it really like to make a film when you’re 7 months pregnant?

Due Dating @duedatingfilm is a brilliant new British rom-com following a pregnant woman navigating dating, relationships and all the expectations that can come with pregnancy.

It’s funny, warm and refreshingly different; putting a pregnant woman right at the centre of a romantic comedy and exploring pregnancy, choice, identity and what it means to still be you while becoming a mother.

And there’s an extra layer to the story: writer, producer and star @jadeashaa was pregnant herself while making it.

In this week’s episode of The Hypnobirthing Podcast, Jade joins me to talk about where the idea came from, how her own pregnancy influenced the story, and what it was actually like filming while seven months pregnant.

An actor says she was able to draw on her own pregnancy while writing and starring in a movie about a woman taking the plunge and dating during her third trimester.

Jade Asha, 36, from Billericay, Essex, who has been acting for more than 20 years, pitched the idea for Due Dating in the early stages of her own pregnancy and then spent three months writing the screenplay.

The film, which premieres in London next month, is described as a "bold and thought-provoking romantic comedy drama".
