Hey Mama! Podcast

We bring our husbands on to discuss #fatherhood, have them share their #igotthis and #idontgotthis moments since becoming dads, and they make recommendations on apps, books and more for soon-to-be or new dads.  We tell stories about their early parenting days and as usual, talk about our weeks. This episode is dedicated to the memory of Caitlin’s dad, who David is named for, and who is greatly missed.

Happy Mother’s Day everyone!! In honor of Laura and Caitlin’s first Mother’s Day (and our tenth episode!) we decided to do something special.  We interviewed our mothers about a variety of topics around motherhood and how it has changed from their generation to ours.  Enjoy! We also want to give a special shout out to moms and friends who may be going through this holiday without their mothers. We love you and are thinking of you on what is probably a tough day.

Charlie isn’t feeling great this week and Laura also was under the weather, which made her birthday less fun than years past.  We talk about the challenges of babies at restaurants and the drain of sick babies. Caitlin isn’t feeling like she is as productive as she used to be and wonders if it’ s either the distraction of the baby in the house or the exhaustion that comes from parenting in general.  Laura gives out organization/to-do strategy tips (#nerdtalk!) as we continue our talk about baby brain and how its impacted our performance at our jobs.   Our #tittytip revolves around a baby who bites your boob.
