Raising kids today looks nothing like how we grew up, and most of us are figuring it out in real time.

In this episode, Amanda and Jessie talk honestly about parenting in a digital world filled with screens, iPads, FaceTime, and toddlers who can scroll before they can dress themselves. They unpack the guilt, survival moments, and constant balancing act of using technology without letting it take over.

From screen time meltdowns and attention spans to social media boundaries and future phone anxiety, this is a real conversation about what it means to raise young kids surrounded by technology. No shame, no perfection, just parents trying to create balance while navigating modern motherhood.

If you’ve ever handed over an iPad just to drink your coffee hot… this episode is for you

This episode might get us cancelled.
Some people are going to be mad.
And honestly… we’re a little nervous.

Today we’re sharing the unpopular mom opinions we usually keep in our heads, about babies, toddlers, mom guilt, marriage after kids, and the pressure to love every single stage of motherhood.

We talk about:
– Not loving the newborn phase
– Why toddler life is unhinged
– Mom guilt and losing your identity
– Marriage turning into logistics
– Social media vs real motherhood
– Loving your kids but hating certain phases
– Why “soak it all in” is not helpful

This is not advice.
This is not judgment.
This is just honesty.

If you’ve ever thought:
“I love my kids but this is HARD”
or
“Am I the only one who feels this way?”

You’re not alone.

Everyone says the second trimester is the “easy” one,  more energy, less nausea, and that pregnancy glow. So why do so many moms still feel anxious, uncomfortable, and unsure during trimester 2?

In this episode of Baby Then What, Amanda and Jessie get brutally honest about the real truth of the second trimester, especially now that Amanda is pregnant with baby #3.

We talk about: – Second trimester symptoms no one warns you about – Why anxiety often increases (even when you “feel better”) – Body changes, weight gain fears, and bump comparison – Anatomy scan nerves and worrying when you don’t feel movement yet – Pregnancy emotions no one prepares you for – What actually helped us feel calmer and more grounded in trimester 2 – What we’re doing differently this time around

If you’re in your second trimester and wondering “Is this normal?” — you’re not alone.

Postpartum is messy, physically, mentally, emotionally , and no one tells you the truth until you’re already in it.

In this unfiltered postpartum Q&A episode of Baby Then What, Amanda and Jessie answer the real questions moms are asking but rarely say out loud: sex after baby, postpartum weight loss, marriage changes, pumping, mental health, and that overwhelming Groundhog Day feeling where every day feels the same.

We talk honestly about:
• Postpartum recovery the first vs second time around
• Marriage after baby, the roommate phase & divide-and-conquer parenting
• Postpartum anxiety, depression & when medication or therapy helps
• Weight loss that won’t budge, hormones & breastfeeding
• Sex after birth, pain, expectations & vaginal recovery
• Pumping, breastfeeding, Haakaa confusion & why pumping is exhausting
• Being a single mom or feeling like you’re doing it all alone
• Breaking the postpartum Groundhog Day cycle

If you’re bleeding, leaking, rage-texting your partner, questioning your body, or wondering when you’ll feel like yourself again, this episode is for you.

Life update motherhood Pregnant with baby #3 Mom burnout Postpartum mental health Motherhood mental load Pregnancy podcast Mom life podcast Real motherhood Motherhood burnout Parenting podcast Pregnancy and motherhood Life update podcast Mom podcast real talk Baby Then What

Welcome back to Baby Then What, today we’re talking about all the things we wish we knew before becoming moms for the first time… now that baby #3 is officially on the way.

From delusional sleep expectations to Pinterest-mom fantasies, postpartum shocks, newborn chaos, relationship meltdowns, mental load guilt, and letting go of control, we’re unpacking the motherhood lessons we learned the very, very hard way.

If you’re pregnant, TTC, deep into postpartum, or just quietly spiraling at 2am… this one hits home.

• What we believed before baby #1 (and why we laugh now)
• The things NO ONE tells you about postpartum
• Baby #2 humbling us in ways we didn’t expect
• What actually matters with a newborn
• What we’re not stressing over with baby #3
• Our list of “things we wish we knew” , from relationships to pelvic floors to schedules to mom guilt

We’re answering questions like:

“Did motherhood look anything like what you imagined?”
“What was your moment of ‘Oh sh*t, this is nothing like I expected?’”
“Did baby #2 heal you or humble you?”
“What would you tell your pre-baby self now?”

And of course… things we wish someone whispered in our ears before the first baby arrived, the honest, messy, unfiltered realities that only moms understand.

Because spoiler: you don’t become a mom in one moment. It’s a slow build, a thousand heartbreaks, a thousand miracles, and a version of yourself you didn’t know existed.

If you ever said:
“Why did no one tell me this?”
“You will survive this.”
“OMG, I didn’t know motherhood felt like this.”

Then this episode is literally for you.

Motherhood lessons, postpartum recovery, breastfeeding truths, mental load, relationship after kids, newborn stage, motherhood expectations vs reality, baby #3 pregnancy, TTC, motherhood community, surviving the first year, things I wish I knew before having a baby.

This week, Amanda & Jessie are breaking down a universal truth: toddlers run the house.

Welcome to Toddler Negotiations 101,  a survival guide for moms losing arguments to humans who think socks are optional and ketchup is spicy.

We’re answering:
• Why are toddlers THIS good at negotiating?
• Who gave them this much confidence??
• Do they accept “no” as a challenge?
• Were WE this unhinged as kids, or is this new chaos?

Plus our real-life daily battles:
• Snack wars
• Car seat stiff-as-a-board mode
• Outfit meltdowns
• Screen-time bartering
• The “I want it—NO I DON’T!” loop
• Toddlers changing their minds mid-sentence

And our “expert” pointers (aka survival tips):
• Fake choices (until they stop working)
• Bribery IS parenting
• Distraction magic
• Lower-the-bar wins
• Picking your battles
• Tag-teaming with your partner
• Keeping snacks for YOUR sanity

And of course… your toddler negotiation confessions.

If you’ve ever found yourself debating with someone who eats crayons,  this episode is for you.
