Ep 8 | What No One Tells You About the First Month of Parenting

Relatable with The Roses

We’ve officially survived (mostly) the first month of parenthood — and let’s just say, nothing could have fully prepared us for what we’ve learned, lost (sleep), and leaked.

In this episode, we’re unpacking:

• The parenting curveballs that hit harder than expected (hi, pelvic floor and baby poop panic)
• The wild breastfeeding journey — tongue tie, latch drama, and why nipples deserve hazard pay
• Postpartum fashion surprises (underwear MVP, anyone?)
• How our dogs are adjusting to life with a tiny human (spoiler: not well, Alfie)
• Why “sleeping upstairs” felt like a betrayal (even if it was only 10 feet away)
• The weird grief that comes with saying goodbye to pregnancy perks

🎮 Plus, we play a game called “Parenting Advice: Yay or Hell No” — where we react to traditional, outdated, and totally unhinged parenting advice from the past.

Let’s just say: we have thoughts on “cry it out,” “boys don’t cry,” and why biting your baby back is not the solution.

Whether you're a new parent, a dog parent wondering if they’ll adjust, or just love a good TMI overshare — this one's for you.

🎧 Tune in for the mess, the magic, and some questionable advice we’ll definitely be ignoring.
