Two Parents & A Podcast

1 year of parenting: best advice, favorite baby products & hardest moments


Listen Later

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re looking back on our first year as parents (Tate is 1 in T-1 week!!!). From the best and hardest moments to the products we swear by (and the ones we regret buying), we’re breaking down everything we’ve learned over the past 12 months.

Plus, we get into food under one year old, the advice we wish we had about breastfeeding and pumping (PS im officially done!!!!) , and what helped us thrive year one as a couple.


And of course, the fun stuff: in Things We DMed - a high school’s “Rejection Therapy” assignment (yes, kids literally asking to do the chicken dance for free food) and the frat prank that convinced a pledge he won the $1.8 billion Powerball (best prank ever or is this just mean??). And in This Week We Learned: “placebo sleep” is actually a thing… and it might change the way you think about a bad night’s sleep.


WE LOVE YOU GUYS! So glad to be doing this parenting thing with all of you!!!
