This week on Whatcha Expecting? Kate and Claire discuss MOTHER’S DAY. They chat about their memories of Mother’s Day growing up – flower sales, divorced parents, and the quest for the perfect gift. They discuss fraught connections to the holiday, from childhood experiences to their relationships to it now. They imagine what Mother’s Day might hold for them in the future, and stumble upon a particular New York food insight that Claire discovers her (apparently profound) ignorance of. They share this week’s Highly Original Anxieties, and close out by plugging their own podcast – truly the perfect way to celebrate Mother’s Day.
