SURPRISE! Emily had her baby early (like, everyone was surprised early), so Cally is flying solo with her husband Kevin for this special episode!

With their own third baby on the way and their house literally exploding with plaster dust, Cally and Kevin are diving deep into the wild world of nesting. Spoiler alert: Kevin thought nesting meant cozy blankets and Netflix binges. He was very wrong.

In this hilarious and honest conversation, they're sharing:

  • What Kevin actually thought nesting was (you won't believe it)
  • Why they bought a house, switched careers, and demolished two closets across three pregnancies
  • The time Cally had a meltdown over THREE items on the coffee table
  • Kevin's theory that he can appease "the monster" with power tools
  • Their current nesting phase featuring plaster EVERYWHERE and clothes strewn across the guest room
  • Real talk about what's worked (and what hasn't) to survive nesting without ending up in couples therapy

Big News: The Real Mom Hub is going to every-other-week episodes while Emily and Cally have a couple babies (and hopefully becomes human again).

Whether you're in your nesting phase, married to someone who is, or just want to hear about the chaos that is preparing for a newborn, this episode is for you. Fair warning: you might want to go hug your partner afterward.
