One Mom's Honest IVF Journey: Over 100 Shots, PCOS, and the Son Who Made It Worth It

We're joined by our friend Monique — a women's health pelvic floor physical therapist — for one of the most real conversations we've had on this show.Monique walks us through her full IVF journey: being diagnosed with PCOS and fertility issues just months after going off birth control, skipping straight to IVF when doctors told her natural conception wasn't an option, navigating 100+ injections, the $20,000 sticker shock (and how insurance changed everything at the last minute), and what nobody on TV ever shows you about the process.She also opens up about the emotional side — why she took the news more calmly than most, what made her want to quit mid-injection, and how becoming a mom changed everything she thought she knew about herself.If you're on an IVF journey, thinking about it, or just want to understand what someone you love might be going through — this one's for you.Monique's practice: derizziopt.com (mobile in-home visits, DFW area — pelvic floor, postpartum, prenatal, fertility support, and more)Follow us: @twomomstooomuchcoffeeTwo Moms Too Much Coffee — real talk, no filter, always overcaffeinated.

Things We Never Thought We’d Care About Until Becoming Moms

Motherhood has a funny way of making you care deeply about things you never thought twice about. In this episode, we talk sleep schedules, car seats, sippy cups, babysitters, routines, toddler clothes, and the very specific parenting opinions we accidentally developed after becoming moms.

Are We… Crunchy Moms?

Are crunchy moms onto something… or are we all just trying to survive parenting in America? In this episode of Two Moms Too Much Coffee, we talk about the “crunchy mom” stereotype and realize we might be a little more crunchy than we thought. From homemade oat flour and almond milk to low screen time, ingredient labels, birthday cupcakes, baby wearing, and the mental load of trying to make healthier choices for kids, this conversation gets very real very fast. We also talk about: - Why “natural parenting” has become so popular - The pressure moms feel around food and parenting choices - Added sugar and toddler snacks - Screen time and modern parenting - Homemade snacks vs processed foods - Cloth diapers, homeschooling, and “unschooling” - Parenting in America and why so many moms feel forced into researching everything - The difference between being “a little crunchy” and full granola And yes, Tempestt admits she basically survived on Purple Skittles and Mountain Dew in high school. If you’ve ever read ingredient labels in the grocery store for 20 minutes, transferred berries into glass containers, or said “my kid doesn’t need cake,” this episode is for you. #CrunchyMom #MotherhoodPodcast #ToddlerMom #GentleParenting #NaturalParenting #MomPodcast #MillennialMom #ScreenTime #HealthyKids #BreastfeedingMom #HomemadeSnacks #TwoMomsTooMuchCoffee
