Love you guys! So close 😊❤
So many interesting facts! I'm Hispanic and most of the women (idk now in this day and age) wait 40 days in total house rest, don't go outside and wear hats most of the time, I didn't understand why... (I was a teen when I saw this ocurring.
Yay! New episode! Going to bed early so I can listen to it 😍👏 Love you guys! xx
Hi Becca and Matt! I've been following you on YouTube for a couple years now, and I'm so happy you started a podcast. I gave birth to my first child, a baby girl named Eloise, in February and I had a drug-free birth at a birth center. When I heard you are going the same route I got super excited for you! I recommend taking a natural birthing class, our Doula taught us so many techniques to ease labor pains. Also, make a birthing affirmation board. Reading it helped me get through the transition, which I thought that was the worst part of labor. Congratulations and good luck! -Katie
I love this podcast so much! Not just the content, which of course is exciting and interesting, but I love Becca and Matt together.
