We open the show discussing Laura’s upcoming car trip with both boys…wish her luck! Caitlin continues to be pregnant and full of rage. She’s trying to stay in the moment and enjoy her new washer/dryer. The show ends on a tearful note, as Laura laments how small her life feels right now. But she’s trying to combat that feeling and stay in touch with old friends.
Stuff we talked about:
Caitlin talks about how the late pregnancy hormones are manifesting for her (RAGE and WORRY) and Laura is deeeeep in potty training world and living the dream (pees). We both discuss the logistics of enjoying newborn snuggles when you have a toddler.
Laura’s using Oh Crap! Potty Training

Keeping the magic of Christmas alive on this episode as we recorded it just before the holiday! We open the show talking about losing the magic of Christmas as older children ourselves and Laura talks about starting to see the magic emerge for Charlie, mostly around the idea of PRESENTS. Caitlin ponders how to create Hanukkah traditions for the family and the struggle of nighttime holiday presents and candy.
Happy New Year mamas! We’re back with a discussion about the complaints we often have about parenthood and the magical moments that are impossible describe when talking parenthood to child-free folks. Laura gives an update on her puking newborn and Caitlin talks about the discomforts of the third trimester.
Listen to Laura’s sad saga of her newborn repeatedly puking while she’s running errands on this slightly abbreviated episode. Abbreviated since a sick newborn isn’t exactly conducive to podcasting (or newborns in general, but we powered through), so this should be a quick listen! Caitlin talks about the continuous furnace that is pregnancy not surprisingly, how tired she is.
