Welcome to the 4th trimester (that "trimester" that no one talks about enough?!). You've not only given birth to your baby but also a new version of yourself- a mama. Your body has just gone through the whirlwind journey of birth so now what? You're most likely looking different, feeling weaker than you've ever experienced, healing in so many places, yet you're full consumed in taking care of your little one all at the same time. In this episode, we talk about what to expect in the first 72 hours to that 6 week check up, healing from vaginal birth vs. c-section, those wild postpartum contractions, why it's so important to prioritize yourself during these days, our thoughts on postpartum sex, & everything in between.  In case no one has told you this recently... You've Got This!

In this week's episode, we dive headfirst into the whirlwind adventure of early parenthood & what to expect during the first few weeks with your new little one. We reminisce on the drive home from the hospital, how we both had no idea how to put the carseat in the car, & that feeling of walking into your home for the first time as a family (goooosebumps!).  We touch on all things from feeding schedules and newborn milestones to a partner's role and types of boundaries to set with friends and family. Whether you're a new parent or just preparing for the wild ride ahead, tune in as we embrace that fake it till you make it mentality because no matter how many parenting books you have under your belt, there's truly no manual that prepares you quite like just getting thrown into it all.

Today we feel so honored to share the vulnerable & immensely inspiring story behind Katrina Scott's rollercoaster of a road through motherhood. She opens up about secondary infertility, multiple miscarriages (and D&Cs), her IVF journey, & finding the light to push through while in the thick of it all. After years of infertility & loss, she gave birth to her rainbow baby, Colette in 2022. As a passionate entrepreneur, Katrina also shares her experiences with navigating the well-known struggles of balancing mom life vs. work life. There's so much to take away from this episode no matter where you are in your motherhood journey. This is a story of heartbreak, strength, resilience, & so much gratitude at the end of it all.

TW: throughout the episode we touch on miscarriages, infertility, & IVF- if this is something that may be too heavy for you, we send you love & understand the need to forego this episode or save it for another time.

This week, we're tying a pretty bow on pregnancy. We're diving deep into our feels by sharing our most intimate pregnancy love notes. Join us as we expose our innermost thoughts and reflections, dishing out words of wisdom we wish we'd heard before (& during) our pregnancy journeys. It's a reminder that sometimes all it takes is the opportunity to slow down & sit in your thoughts just to realize how far you've come. Take this episode as a sign to disconnect for a few, whip out your neglected journal, & write yourself a much-needed love note today. 

We're also excited to share with you some newness! In this episode we introduce Mom-To-Mom, our new monthly giveback program. Once a month, we will be selecting one mom's story & sending a care package based on whatever she could use most in that moment. Whether she's pregnant, grieving loss, postpartum, breastfeeding, looking for hand-me-downs, toys etc. we would love to support her however we can. If this is you or a mama friend you have in mind, all you have to do is send us a private message with your story & how we can help (can be anonymous).

Surprise! We're adding a bonus episode to this week's roster by inviting two special guests to get behind the mic with us. Yesterday we shared our perspective of our birth stories so we thought it would be fun to hear about the experience from our partners' points of view. Today the guys share their thoughts on labor, how they supported us throughout the entire process, & advice for couples navigating an experience of their own. It's heartfelt, it's insightful, & we've got to say the boys really showed up to shower us in compliments. 

DWJBM Hot Tip: If you're pregnant, give this episode a listen with your S.O. to open up the convo about your future BIRTH day!

This week, we're heading to the hospital to share our BIRTH STORIES! We kick things off discussing our hospital bag must-haves (for mom, dad, & baby) & the things we ditched the second time around. We share our very raw & unfiltered journeys bringing our babies into the world from the anticipation of first-time inductions and a scheduled C-section to the unexpected twists and turns of labor & post-birth. No matter the rollercoaster ride of how you get there, absolutely nothing compares to the moment you meet your little one for the very first time. If there is one thing we both learned through birth, it's that women are absolutely superheroes & we are so much stronger than we think we are!
