This week Brittany and Aleen are back to share their experiences and emotions surrounding leaving their kids at home after much needed time off. Then, they answer popular listener questions about how to balance wearing the “friend” vs. “parent” hat, how long it should take to form a bond with your baby, and how to broach the subject of having more kids with the “non-default” parent. They end with a “Dear Betches Moms” where a listener is becoming defeated in her new mom journey and asks for advice and solidarity for feeling of "you have to do it all”.
