The (K)at is finally out of the bag! Kat is expecting baby #2!! It would be a little weird if we withheld the most compelling aspects of this wild pregnancy and plans for a sovereign birth (we explain what that means too) as two moms who host a podcast dedicated to pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. So, we of course had to divulge the details. It's too exciting not to share! We answer some of our listener questions submitted via instagram stories as well.

We hear from Speech and Language Pathologist Maria Gianfilippo, Founder of Organic Speech Therapy, about what it takes to raise talkative babies and toddlers. First, it’s important to know what the milestones and averages are in regard to spoken words by specific age targets. Yes, every child does develop at his or her own pace; however, within *reason*. We reflect upon the main contributors to a burgeoning vocabulary versus speech delays that should raise red flags. We learn about optimal environments and lifestyles parents can embody in order to maximize their child’s communication capacity. We’ll discuss why TV shows are not an appropriate substitute for 1:1 human interaction when it comes to teaching our children. It's a tough pill to swallow, but even the "educational programs" are not ideal. TV is a tool and we need to treat it as such. You’ll also hear about the “wait and see” approach still recommended by pediatricians and the main reasons why speech delays have been on a significant rise over the last few years. Learn about the benefits of bi-, tri-, and quadlingualism.

Some women want two under two so they can “get the baby phase over with” in one fell swoop. Other women intentionally space their children 3+ years apart for various reasons such as socioeconomic and health. Whether you are currently considering conscious or unconscious conception, the choice of how far apart to space your babies can impact you in ways beyond what you may have imagined. So, what is the best interpregnancy interval between children? Is there even such a thing? Is one length more optimal than another? There are both objective and subjective answers behind this enigma. We polled our loyal followers in our Instagram stories back in November about what the “perfect” age gap is between children, and we share those results along with your reasoning. We also share the risks, benefits, pros and cons of short and long interpregnancy intervals. Did any of these surprise you? If you are curious on what the latest evidence says about optimal pregnancy spacing, we read excerpts from the “Pregnancy Spacing” chapter in Lily Nichols’ book “Real Food for Pregnancy.” The bottom line is- like everything that has to do with motherhood choices- only YOU will know the best interpregnancy interval for your body and your family. There are several factors that need to be considered beyond your and your baby’s physical health and well being- all of which we unpack during this episode.

We kick off season 2 of Moms Off The Record and sit down with our friend and fellow radical mom, Lizzie Bolliger who you probably know as “Fierce Lizzie” to hear about her three births, what inspired her to leave her day job as a teacher and transition into a career as a doula on her terms. We discuss the difference between “natural” and physiologic birth misnomers, whether any intervention is “natural,” circumventing hospital policies and rules, how we all really feel about the anatomy ultrasound, the truth about placenta previa diagnosis, and the difference between feeling empowered and being empowered. Lizzie also shares a typical day in her life starting from the crack of dawn when she wakes up until 9pm when she calls it a night. As a business owner, doula, and podcaster who also homeschools her three children; how does she manage to juggle it all? She shares her mom and business woman hacks.

As we approach 2024 and our almost one year anniversary of co-hosting Moms Off The Record podcast, we humbly and candidly reflect on all the things we either changed our minds about or would do differently with baby #2. We talk about what it means to be “above the line” vs. “below the line” as per “The 15 Commitments of Conscious Leadership” We each share topics about which we’re okay with being self-righteous versus ones where we’re open-minded and curious.

We are honored and humbled to interview none other than Just the Inserts who up until just a few weeks ago has been fully anonymous since the inception of her Instagram account 3 years ago. Now, she is allowing the public to hear her voice, and although we had the pleasure of seeing her face on camera for this very special recording, we are respectfully shielding her face from our social media for her and her family’s safety at this time.

Isabella Malbin, the host of the “Whose Body Is It” podcast, is also a life-coach, hypnotist and former "liberal" feminist turned radical truth teller. Isabella shares what initially peaked her years ago; euphemistic, sanitized terms like “belly birth” in lieu of cesarean section is just one example. We hear why she was kicked out of her Fertility Awareness Training program and why her Doula training program found her vernacular rooted in truth and refusal to erase “women” and “mother” from her vocabulary to be a threat. Why none of us on this recording use pronouns. Isabella theorizes on the root cause of the uprising of female erasure in language amongst most birth workers. Why is “inclusive language” actually more harmful than innocuous? Isn’t there a seat for everyone at the table? We debate the question “just because you can do something, does it mean you should?” when it comes to ART (assisted reproductive technology). Why do some cultures justify surrogacy whereas others accept pregnancy may not be in the cards? Are guilt and shame actually healthy reactions to our choices instead of emotions we should aim to avoid?

Per your request, we recorded this raw, introspective, humble and at times humorous look into how some of our closest friendships shifted- for better or worse- once we became moms. We share the awkward, odd, and redemptive friendship renaissances and demises. Friendships aside, we analyze how the relationships with our husbands changed since becoming parents. Do we believe our children “come first” or we as a couple “come first?” You’ll have to tune in to find out. Lastly, we reflect on how we see our moms differently since becoming moms ourselves.

Since we’re not fans of the term “stay-at-home mom” because of its implications that the mom doesn’t really “work” but rather just chills out at home, we’re comparing our lives as a full-time mom at home vs. a full-time working (in the traditional corporate sense) from home mom. That was a mouthful! Context: Kat resigned from her high-pressure, corporate career two months prior to her son’s birth and never returned to work- by choice- and he is now 14 months old (at the time this episode aired). April returned to her full-time corporate career in a work-from-home arrangement when her daughter was 4 months old. April’s daughter is weeks away from her first birthday (also at the time of this episode airing). We discuss the highs and lows, pros and cons, what we are looking forward to the most, and what we are grateful for with our respective situations. We also share our tips for moms on how to vet high quality and trustworthy childcare at the end of this episode.

The MOTR moms are back! In today's episode, we welcome Nicole Cheever who is a mom of three, EC (Elimination Communication) connoisseur, and co-host of the Go Diaper Free podcast for an illuminating and humbling conversation on all things EC. Nicole reveals how and when the diaper industry began prying its avaricious claws into busy moms, and how the downward spiral our modern lifestyle rooted in convenience culture has had detrimental psychological and physical impacts when we choose to leave kids in diapers well into toddlerhood and beyond. EC doesn't have to be this all or nothing idealistic and unattainable endeavor that only crunchy full-time stay-at-home moms can accomplish. Just the opposite, actually! Nicole dissects the assumption that prematurely pottying kids is "traumatic". After listening to today's episode, you'll hopefully feel assured that regardless of your prior traumas or pitfalls with EC'ing and potty-training and despite your children's ages, you can take simple actions and make mindset shifts to successfully EC and ultimately fully potty train starting right now.
