Just in time for that next postpartum cocoon.

Meanwhile, Beth is in her feelings — her littlest love has just started daycare, and it’s a big shift. Huge love to any other parents navigating change and transition right now. Physically, the twin pregnancy toll is real and rising — and emotionally, Beth’s reflecting on the bittersweet beauty of watching her little sister step into motherhood but is fairly sure she got the baby shower games wrong...
