If you are trying to prepare for parenthood and already feel like an overwhelmed parent, this episode will help you breathe again. I sit down with Dr. Kailey Buller to talk honestly about what it feels like to bring a newborn home, why even the most educated parents feel unsure, and how simple first-time parenting tips can help you feel more grounded. We cut through the noise of conflicting advice and share the kind of evidence-based parenting guidance that brings clarity back into the chaos. If you want real advice on parenting from a doctor who has delivered hundreds of babies and raised two of her own, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why feeling like an overwhelmed parent is often a sign that you are trying to prepare for parenthood with care, not a sign that you are failing.

• How Dr. Buller uses her experience to offer first-time parenting tips that make room for flexibility instead of perfection.

• The surprising ways advice on parenting can go wrong when you take it at face value, and how evidence-based parenting helps you filter out the noise.

• What new parents should know about changing medical guidance and how to stay confident while you prepare for parenthood.

• How to keep going when you feel unsure, even after reading books, taking classes, or scrolling endlessly for first-time parenting tips.

If you have ever felt like an overwhelmed parent, this episode will help you feel understood, supported, and far more capable than you think. Listen to the full episode to hear Dr. Kailey Buller’s three powerful pieces of advice on parenting and learn how evidence-based parenting can guide you as you prepare for parenthood.
