Nursing and Cursing

Nursing and Cursing

Nursing & Cursing is a parenting podcast that covers more than your 10 month old's full diaper. Five friends break down all the crazy that comes after the baby. Kids, husbands, sex, money. Everything from the early days of sore nipples and sleepless nights to parenting with a hangover and picking a preschool. Was your kid screaming on the other side of the bathroom door while you tried to find 5 seconds to put your last tampon in? Then this is the podcast for you.

Hi Mamas!!! We miss you so much!!! 
This ep is a lil check in/check up and a welcome to our mini season 6 🥳🥳🥳🥳
How was your summer? It’s ok -SAME. If even a mask and 6ft of personal space can’t keep your toddler from somehow being the loudest, closest person in your life, WE UNDERSTAND.  
We’re not ok. Somehow there was no summer and there is no school. Just a groundhogs day montage of masks, misery, coffee, wi...

Parenting is hard enough when you and your partner agree on things(still waiting for that over here, but whatevs) But what about those parenting issues you just *dont* agree on. From: are the kids developmentally on track, to should we say yes to a bedtime snack? Shit is hard. Do you compromise ? Disagree in front of the kids? Have a low grade hissing fight later? Or shrug and give in ? As usual, We have no idea. And for o...

Welcome to the No Zone! Mom, can I ...? Nope. No. Not today. I said no. Don’t ask me again. This is your first warning ....cut to us handing out negative consequences for poor choices all damn day. Anyone else feel like they’re just constantly saying no and taking shit away? Kate calls it normal. Ali calls it violent communication and Molly says she needs to process her past. Same ol same ol around here! And welcome back to fail...

Hey Mamas! This week, Nursing & Cursing is turning our voice OFF and turning ON the voices of Black parents, hosts, educators, authors, scholars, reporters and doctors through podcasts that teach. We’ve compiled a list of other podcasts (and there are so many more) that are helping us stretch and open to new perspectives, voices, ideas, and action steps. Please join us in the learning so we can be better teachers for our babies!...

Hi Mamas. Wow. This week has been a painful and powerful reminder that some conversations with our kids are scary and uncomfortable and can’t wait any longer. Yes -we are talking about race and racism. As 5 white moms, we know that we have a true responsibility to help our kids confront and contextualize today’s realities in the hopes that tomorrow can be better and more equal for all. This week, we were honored and excited ...

We know we aren’t the only ones trying to be productive parents and make good use of ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL this time at home with our children, right? What’s it gonna be, kid? Losing the training wheels? Potty training? Swimming without your floaties? What do you do when YOU’RE ready for a milestone, but your kid ISN’T? Oh, and get a load of Christine’s fail ... hint: It’s the sequel to kicking the bed.

Hey mamas! How you doing this week? We are barely hanging on and so grateful to you for being on the journey with us. This week Kate crowd sources some of life’s big decisions. As a New Yorker with 3 kids and a baby due days before school starts ...what should she do this fall? When she left her house in March she figured she’d be back in 2 weeks and setting up the crib. But things are looking unclear. Should she go back to the ci...

Hoooooolllly shit we are still doing this???? Remote learning. Mmm.. ..it was cute 2 months ago, but we are into our second locked -down-with-our family-menstrual cycle now. The kids are over it (those that were ever on board to begin with ), and we are FRIED. Are you a teacher? A parent with school age kids, or today’s current nightmare : BOTH (so sorry Molz).

Hi Mamas. 👋 We’re still out here cooking Three. Meals. A. Day, stuffing our faces with that quarantine trail mix (that we’re not supposed to touch til dark days), and sharing space with husbands who, it turns out, aren’t *as* good at multi-tasking as we are. Tune in to hear our biggest marital blow ups since quarantine began, putting a spotlight on how bitchy the N&C wives can really be. 😬

The sequel is always worse than the original and this ep is no different. It’s Coronavirus II. Last week we were worried our trip to Mexico would be cancelled....my lord what a quaint time. This week, life on earth has been cancelled- but for some reason we still have to make dinner and do laundry. Even the fall of man can’t cancel chores. Thank god for screens, friendship, wine and coffee. Wherever you are we got you. See ya in h...

This week we discuss what’s on everyone’s minds. The mother fucking corona virus. Yes, the respiratory virus is a health crisis, but being quarantined with your partner and kids is a MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS. The trips have been cancelled, the hands have been washed-ish, we have all the toilet paper. Now all we gotta do is survive being in lock down with the people we love the most. THOUGHTS AND FUCKIN PRAYERS.

Death is a part of life. Ugh. As middle aged adults, we can barely talk about it without choking up or shutting down. So what do we say (or not say) when our kids want to talk about death and dying. This week on the mic we muddle our way to some answers that we are using for now, but listeners we would love to hear your thoughts on this heavy topic. And Kate admits to a problem and may need an intervention.
