  • Only women give birth

    I’ve only listened to one episode, but after hearing the phrase “ birthing person” and “ feeding person” I know that this podcast is not for me. Just in case anyone out there is confused, only women give birth, and only women breast-feed.

  • Wow!

    This actually saved me during my fourth trimester. Not only is the transition to motherhood taxing, in many levels, this podcast made me feel totally understood and that I was not alone in this transition! This is a great podcast for new mothers and parents across the board! You will not regret it!!
