Motherhood: It's All Fun and Games Until Someone Grabs Poop
Welcome back to Go Ask Your Mothers! In this episode, we’re diving headfirst into the mess, magic, and mayhem of motherhood.
First, we’ll explore two exciting updates: a new initiative that’s making restaurants more welcoming for parents (because yes, you can breastfeed and enjoy a hot meal), and California’s historic expansion of paid family leave—huge news for working parents everywhere.
Then, in Moms Gone Viral, we’ll laugh, cringe, and maybe even tear up. We’re talking about the generational parenting divide and one mom’s unexpected discovery of what her toddler was clutching during nap time. Spoiler: it wasn’t a stuffed animal.
Finally, in Mama Hacks & Facts, we’ll equip you with the ultimate pumping bag checklist to keep you prepared for whatever the day (or your boss or baby or boss who is a baby) throws at you.
Tune in for the wit, wisdom, and wild ride that is motherhood. And don’t forget to text me your own mom-like moments—you might just hear your story on a future episode!
