My baby is four which means we are officially out of the “horrible threes” stage. On this episode I talk about horrible threes, epic meltdowns, how none of my parenting approaches have worked with my younger daughter and ask myself: when do kids start getting easier. I also chat about kids birthday parties, the pressure to make them “Instagram worthy” and give some updates on PMDD and live stressors.
