  • A real mixed bag - solo parenting, experiencing loss + grief as a parent, neighbourhood plovers & are we having more kids?!

    Hello & welcome back to another week on the pod! Thank you for tuning in with us.

  • No one is emotionally regulated here

    Welcome back to another week on the podcast & if you're a toddler parent, we all need to take a collective deep breath yeah?

  • It's giving ROUGH - Sickness hits hard, sleep vs temperament & some rec's for your solids journey!

    Welcome back - this week we are coming to you mere hours before this episode goes live because the past week has been ROUGH!


    Sickness has hit Liv's household again & the guilt has come along with it. Carla is amongst renovations of her unit & her visions of painting in peace were not achieved.

    We also somehow got into a bit of a deep dive on sleep & question if there really is anything you can do that would ultimately override the main factor - temperament.


    Plus! Here are a couple of recommendations for products to help your solids journey, tried & tested by us -

    Nourishing Bubs Smock

    Nourishing Bubs Solids Starter Pack

  • Parenting different ages & stages

    Hiya - welcome to another week on the podcast!


    As always, we fill you in on the happenings of our lives which this week includes a healthy debate on which breast size is easier or more difficult when breastfeeding, an update Carla's new living situation & an ode to how amazing single parents are because we absolutely could NOT.


    We then discuss what it has been like parenting two completely different age/stage children at once - how it demands you in almost every way, which we prefer & why, plus we asked you guys what was your fav stage!
