The PedsDocTalk Podcast: Child Health, Development & Parenting—From a Pediatrician Mom

“I’m not a crafty or elaborate activity planner kind of mom—and I sometimes feel guilty”


Listen Later

Listen up, moms! We don’t have to be Pinterest perfect moms to be a good mom. If this is something that brings you joy, that is INCREDIBLE; but it’s not a checkbox that defines your worth as a mother. I welcome Anna—a mom from the PedsDocTalk community to chat about that mom guilt created by not being crafty and the elaborate activity planner. We discuss:

  • Where guilt surrounding our actions as moms comes from
  • What our children developmentally need for play
  • How to reframe when you’re feeling guilty not doing enough for your kiddo 

  • Check out my weekly videos on child health & development by ⁠subscribing to PedsDocTalk on YouTube⁠.
