What No One Tells You About Going From 1 to 2 + Hand-Me-Downs + Birthday Cake Pressure

Mums Talking

Show Notes

In this episode, Bex gets emotional when she shares a beautiful moment with her son that made her realise something that no one tells you when you go from one child to two. Bex talks about cutting out dairy and why our own health so often ends up at the bottom of the list. We get into the beautiful side of hand-me-downs from friends and family, and some very creative listener suggestions for handling tantrums (shout out to the ear doctors 👀). We also unpack the completely self-inflicted pressure to create over-the-top birthday cakes for our kids, and ask ourselves do we actually have hobbies anymore? And if not, what would we love to try?
