Follow the show: The Bright Side

Today we’re launching a new recurring segment called “Mom Friend,” a judgment-free zone to explore the often-overwhelming work of parenting. Helping guide us on this journey is Emily Oster — economist, founder and CEO of ParentData, and bestselling author of some of the most-talked-about parenting books of the last decade, including “Expecting Better,” "Cribsheet," "The Family Firm," and "The Unexpected." Emily brings research-backed data to the conversation, so you can make the best, most informed decisions for your family. Can you drink during pregnancy? What about while breastfeeding? How worried should we be about screen time? And when is the best time to freeze your eggs? Listen and find out.
