Conversations with Cam

In this episode, I sit down with Emily Silver and Jamie O'Day, co-founders of NAPS (Newborn and Parenting Support), to discuss the challenges of new parenthood and the importance of personalized, judgment-free support for parents. Emily and Jamie share their experiences as labor and delivery nurses, which led them to identify a crucial gap in postpartum care and ultimately inspired the creation of NAPS, provide advice on how to find the support you need, enlighten us on the reality of baby-friendly hospitals, and get honest about new motherhood.

Key Takeaway / Points:

• The origin story of NAPS and its evolution from overnight care to comprehensive parenting support
• Night shift experiences in labor and delivery and how they shaped Emily and Jamie's approach
• Critique of "baby-friendly" hospital policies and their impact on new mothers
• The pervasive judgment and guilt in parenting decisions
• How can we identify trusted sources for parenting advice?
• The concept of "human giver syndrome" and its effect on mothers
• Why is accessible healthcare support crucial for new parents?
• How can we filter unsolicited parenting advice?
• What would "mom-friendly" hospitals look like?
• The importance of personalized care in the postpartum period

Real talk? Modern parenting is a doozy. There’s never been more pressure to be perfect with social media readily at our fingertips - mixed with total isolation and no help. Where the f*ck is that village everyone talks about? Consider After Bedtime your village. Led by Kristin and Deena - founders of the largest online parenting community, Big Little Feelings - After Bedtime is the place you can go at the end of a long hard day to find your “enough”-ness. We’ll laugh, we’ll cry, we’ll maybe pee our pants a little as we unpack things we’re ALL experiencing but too ashamed to talk about: imperfect marriages, miscarriages, managing toddler mania, apologizing to our kids and everything in between. You’ll leave with actionable, realistic tips to make this whole parenting thing smoother - small changes, big impact. In an age where parents need more *real* connection than ever, let’s talk honestly about the hard - and remind ourselves we are not alone, we are not failing. In fact, we’re f*cking crushing it

Live From Bed is your official invitation to hide from the world with me — your permission slip to unravel out loud.

Every Wednesday, I pull the covers over my head and drag my favorite people in with me — from internet sensations to experts — to celebrate our bad habits, worst traits, and the internal monologues that probably make both our therapists and the group chat nervous.

We talk about the friendships that downgraded from ride-or-die to ‘hope you're well’, the plans we’re praying get canceled, the milestones we’re nowhere near — and the texts we wish we hadn’t sent.

If your best friend’s ignoring your FaceTime… and you’ve already messed up one too many social interactions this week, this is your place.

No unsolicited advice. No annoying success stories. Just the things we all think but wish someone else would say first — and a whole lot of commiserating.
