    15. 3.10: Are you trying to get PREGNANT?

      This week, we talk all things pregnancy – whether it’s all you’ve ever wanted or you are trying to avoid it, we’ve been through it all. We talk about how hard it is to get pregnant, how much sex is too much before your partner is just shooting blanks and why you need to track your own ovulation cycle closely, because we’re all different. We also share our stories of what it was like finding out we’re pregnant between baby 1 and 2, what implantation can feel like, how pregnancy feels at each stage and some of our weirdest pregnancy symptoms. We talk about the insane cost of pregnancy tests and some alternatives we’ve found along the way. And when it comes to whoopsies – are they really whoopsies??

    16. 3.9: Are you REALLY using that on your kids?

      As moms, we are constantly asking ourselves should we use this product or that product? This brand or that brand? It’s an exhausting world to navigate and you don’t know if you are making the right or wrong decision half the time. This week, we share everything we have learned so far about what brands we love vs. which we stay away from when it comes to pregnancy beauty products, baby skincare, food, sunscreen, baby products, laundry detergent and more. We also share some of the product swaps we have made from our first kid to second kid, having a better understanding of what goes into products these days. Our best advice is always – read the label carefully!

    18. 3.7: Managing Milestone Madness

      Watching your kids go through all their major milestones is both incredible to witness and overwhelming at times to keep up. And people are always quick to tell you if your kid is ahead or behind, rather than just let them be. This week we talk about all the major milestones, the different age ranges that are considered ‘normal’, when our kids actually started crawling, walking, talking and how at the end of the day, they usually all end up in the same place, no matter how they got there. And we also share some of our best ideas on how to turn these milestones into memories and keepsakes!

      This week we dive into parenting styles and what we’ve learned about ourselves as moms. We discuss what it’s felt like to be labelled a ‘good’ mom or ‘bad’ mom for the decisions we’ve made, and how we’ve learned to stop giving a fuck about what other people think. We share our unique parenting styles and why it’s so important to lean into you who are as a mom and not get overwhelmed by the noise out there. We also share what we feel is the hardest part of parenting for any age.
