Back with another round of The Hotline, where we answer your real, unfiltered questions straight from the DMs. No gatekeeping over here — just us, oversharing as always and trying to figure out motherhood together.
We’re talking about the stuff no one warns you about, the things keeping you up at night, and all the “wait, is this just me?!” moments. Let’s get into it:
This Week We Cover:
– Peeing your pants every time you sneeze (yes, still)
– When your baby is way more chaotic than the chill ones at music class
– How to know if you’re actually ready for baby #2
– Feeling like everyone else’s birth was perfect… and yours wasn’t
– Losing a friendship after a miscarriage (and you don’t know what to say)
– Trusting other's to watch your kids without spiraling
– A mom yelling at your kid (and you never looked at her the same again)
– Birth trauma and feeling worthless after a “not ideal” experience
– Parenting information overload: are we just overthinking it all?!
Other Episode Callouts:
– Prepping for baby #2 → Listen to Ep. 49: Things We Were Nervous About Going From 1 to 2 Kids
– Navigating loss and friendship → Ep. 10: Light After Loss with Katrina
– Postpartum workouts & confidence boost → Ep. 56 with Megan Roup
– MIL won’t respect your boundaries? Say less.
No question is too weird, too heavy, or too small. We’re all in this together — germs, drama, leaky bladders and all.
