Description: It’s your favorite mamas on the mic! Taylor Monaco, new mom of FOUR, and Shannon sit down to and yap about all the joys (and some bs) that come with being a mom. Shannon and Taylor compare their parenting styles and the 5 birth experiences they’ve shared. They give helpful motherhood tips, like what to do when you’re the first mom in the friend group, small ways to feel like yourself postpartum, and so much more. Taylor shares her reasons for no longer having a nanny, and her favorite birth so far. They also touch on birth-plan trends, delayed cord clamping, keeping the placenta, safe-sleep anxiety, and loving additional children as much as the first. What was Taylor’s push present? What’s it like being a boy mom? What’s the name of the documentary? Hear all of the details in this Mother’s Day episode of Probably A Podcast!
