Description

One doctor says “never wake a sleeping baby.” The next says “you have to wake them to feed.”
Welcome to motherhood, where every piece of parenting advice contradicts the last.

In this week’s episode, Amanda & Jessie unpack the chaos of modern motherhood, sleep training, feeding debates, and the endless stream of contradicting mom advice that leaves parents wondering what’s actually right.

From BLW vs. purees, co-sleeping vs. crib, and potty training timelines, to the mom guilt that creeps in no matter what you do, we’re diving into the mental overload that comes with everyone suddenly being an “expert.”

Plus: we read your hilarious and horrifying submissions for the worst parenting advice you’ve ever gotten, and play a rapid-fire game of “helpful or BS” that every new mom, toddler mom, and exhausted parent will relate to.

Because no matter what side you pick : sleep, solids, or screen time, someone will tell you you’re wrong.
We’re all just winging it.

🎧 Real moms. Real contradictions. Zero judgment.
