Descripción

You know that split second before a sneeze when you think, “Please not today”? We start there and somehow end up at TSA, breast milk testing, and the emotional math of whether you really will “miss this.” That’s Momish energy: honest, a little unhinged, and weirdly comforting. We talk postpartum recovery with zero filter, including the pelvic floor realities nobody brags about, nap battles that turn you into a human mattress, and the sleep setup changes that actually help (yes, we are preaching blackout curtains). Then we go straight for the sacred cow of parenting advice: the “you’re gonna miss this” line. We love our kids deeply, and we still have a running list of things we will not miss, from sick-season germs to public meltdowns to the endless diaper spend. If you’ve ever traveled with a baby, this one is for you. We share beach trip planning tips, flying-with-kids strategy, and a breast milk moment at the airport that nearly sent us into full meltdown. From there, we get real about breastfeeding, pumping at work, lactation consultant confusion, and the relief that comes with letting go of pressure. Fed is best, mental health matters, and sometimes taking your meds and making the switch you need is the most loving move. We also get into postpartum identity, “getting your pink back,” and how mom friendships become an actual survival tool. If any of this hits home, subscribe, share this with a mom friend who needs the laugh, and leave a review. What part of motherhood are you in right now, and what are you ready to stop pretending is “magical”?

episode Wet Sleeves Or Crumbs On Your Feet artwork

Wet Sleeves Or Crumbs On Your Feet

A Brazilian wax question turns into a full spiral, and somehow that’s the most accurate summary of our brains as moms. We’re Gabby, Katie, and Taylor, and we’re joined by our guest Katie from Florida for a fast, chaotic, and honest catch-up that starts with beauty upkeep, a DIY waxing nightmare, and the very real case for letting professionals handle certain kinds of “self care.”  From there we get into workplace stories and the stuff that still gets under our skin: a sexist comment about blondes, messy coworker energy, and why nurse life can feel like high school with scrubs. We also hit the oddly stressful “what are your hobbies?” question and get real about what adult hobbies actually look like when you’re tired, raising kids, and trying to keep your house standing. Think NYT crosswords, crochet, trivia, organizing, gym time, and yes, rage cleaning.  Then things take a darker turn with pop culture documentaries and true crime, including reality TV fallout and a crash case that raises tough questions about accountability, internet judgment, and the stories families tell themselves. We finish with a long run of “would you rather” questions that turns into a surprisingly real conversation about millennial work-life balance, PTO battles, teacher burnout in fifth grade classrooms, parenting discipline, and why nurses and teachers don’t get the respect they deserve.  If you like funny friends, unfiltered mom talk, and real conversations about nursing, teaching, and modern motherhood, hit play.

episode The Toe Hoes Go To The Zoo artwork

The Toe Hoes Go To The Zoo

We bounce from nurse life to mom life, laughing through the stuff that would make us cry if we said it too seriously. We swap stories about mansplaining, zoo chaos, daycare guilt, and the parenting routines nobody feels fully confident about.  • cancelling the preceptor class and admitting we are not policy encyclopedias  • unpacking habits, ADD brain, and why clutter feels personal  • mansplaining stories and how we call it out at home  • zoo day highlights, toddler wipeouts, bird encounters, and ocean fear  • mama bear moments, daycare scratches, and teaching kids to defend themselves  • kid nail hygiene, the grossest parenting confession we have heard, and hard judgement  • awkward kid staring in public and the forced parent small talk  • dream jobs outside nursing, from teaching to veterinary medicine to niche OnlyFans jokes  • homeschooling versus daycare, social pressure, and the nonstop working mom guilt  • schedule reality, missing holidays, calling out, and peer pressure stories  • bath frequency, eczema advice, showering boundaries, teeth brushing fights, and band aid drama    If you like an honest parenting podcast with nurse moms, unfiltered humor, and conversations about working mom life, motherhood guilt, and real-world routines, hit play. Subscribe, share with a mom friend who needs a laugh, and leave us a review so more parents can find the show. 💋 Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2570524/support]  If you loved hanging out with us, don’t forget to follow, rate, and share this with your group chat or your favorite mom friend. send us your stories, your chaos, your hot takes… we’re here for all of it.

The ADHD Version of a Mother’s Day Episode

Mother’s Day can be beautiful and brutal in the same breath, so we wanted to talk about the full picture. We’re celebrating the moms holding their babies close, the moms still waiting for that moment, and the moms carrying love and loss at the same time. We also get real about how quickly motherhood can turn into a mental checklist: plans, schedules, pressure, and the constant feeling that you are doing it wrong even when you are trying your best. We dig into the not-so-glam side of trying to conceive, from ovulation tracking to the way “timing it right” can make intimacy feel like a job. From there, we shift into faith and family tradition, including baptism versus blessings and what it looks like to raise kids around religion without fear, shame, or pressure. If you’ve ever felt torn between honoring your upbringing and protecting your peace, you’ll feel seen. Then it’s classic mom life: who our kids take after, why dads sometimes connect differently at first, and the truly unfiltered things kids say that leave you laughing and spiraling at the same time. We talk about how we respond to comments about makeup, beauty, and praise, plus the parenting double standards we grew up with and what we want to do differently as our kids become teens. If this conversation hits home, subscribe, share it with a mom you love, and leave a review so more parents can find us. What’s one Mother’s Day feeling you wish people talked about more?

episode Your Baby Does Not Need A Wipe Warmer artwork

Your Baby Does Not Need A Wipe Warmer

You can buy every “must have” on the internet and still feel like you’re drowning at 2 a.m. So we’re bringing the real postpartum talk: three nurse moms, a lot of honesty, and the baby registry lessons we learned the hard way. We get into the postpartum essentials that actually made recovery and newborn life easier, including the unglamorous stuff like stool softeners, Miralax, and Dermoplast, plus nipple care favorites like Silverettes and nipple balm. We also call out the popular products that felt like pure consumerism once real life hit, like wipe warmers and “hands free” pumping bras that don’t stay put. If you’re breastfeeding or pumping, we talk nursing bras, portable breast pumps for working moms, and why catching letdown with a simple milk collector can save your sanity. Then we move into the daily grind: cold vs warm bottles, when a bottle warmer is worth it, bottle washing and sterilizing routines, and diaper pails that truly contain the smell until you have to change them. We also talk about sleep gear, swaddle transitions, and the emotional side of postpartum life, from phantom cries to the power of a five minute shower, a stocked freezer, and leaning on your village. If this felt validating, subscribe so you don’t miss the next yap session, share with a new mom friend, and leave a review with the one postpartum item you’d never live without.
