Are you ever really prepared to give birth?

Everyone's birth story is unique. We can prepare for things like hospital bags and childcare plans, but the actual labor & delivery of our children is definitely beyond our control. No one plans for an emergency c-section. 

So today we’re talking about our labor & delivery stories and what helped us prepare for it. Sometimes hearing other peoples experiences can mentally prepare you for the unexpected. 

Grab your drinks, pop in those earphones -especially if you have little ears around, and let’s dive right into Episode #61


We Discuss...
  • How was your labor & delivery with your first baby?
  • Deliver before/after due date?
  • What made you go to the hospital?
  • Contractions? (front/back pain)
  • Water break?
  • Epidural?
  • How long were you in inactive labor? (admitting-delivering)
  • Did you have anyone in your room?
  • How long did you push for?
  • What did it feel like?
  • Did Dad cut the umbilical?
  • How were the days in the hospital?
  • How long did you stay in the hospital?
  • Did you bring baby home?
  • Were your second or third deliveries any different?
  • What advice would you give to a mom who's getting ready to have her baby? ​

No one ever gets married thinking it could potentially end in an affair. We all hope it’s something we never have to worry about, but it’s actually more common than we think -people just don't like to talk about it because the pain is so deep. And navigating it while saving face for your children takes a whole other level of strength. 

Today’s special guest is going to share how she recovered from her husband's affair while staying strong for her children. We hope this helps anyone who’s struggling with this situation. 

We Discuss…

  • Did you see the affair coming?
  • How did you tell your kids about it, and how did they react?
  • Tell us about the hard days?
  • What emotional battles did you go through?
  • How did you parent during heartbreak?
  • How did you separate seeing him as the enemy vs. seeing him as their Dad?
  • How was it trying to figure out how to share custody?
  • What did you do on your weekends alone without the kids?
  • How did you help your kids through this transition?
  • What is life like now?
  • What helped you recover?
  • How does an affair change you and your outlook on relationships?
  • Could you ever trust again?
  • Are you able to forgive him?
  • Are you able to coparent?
  • Are you able to be in the same room as the “mistress”?
  • If you could go back in time and talk to yourself during those hard times, what would you say?
