I Hate My Dogs After Becoming A Mom...And Other Things I'm Not Supposed to Say

Update: 2025-04-23

Description

This episode is a voice note-style vent sesh from one mom to another. I’m sharing the unfiltered truths I never thought I’d say out loud:

I resent my dogs after becoming a mom (hello, postpartum rage!)
I want to quit breastfeeding cold turkey (breastfeeding burnout!)
I went from in-law drama to actually having a healthy relationship with them (yes, it’s possible!).

Whether you’re breastfeeding, bottle-feeding, rage-cleaning, or hiding in your car for five minutes of peace — this one’s for you.
