Our Pregnancy & Birth Stories — Trimester Talk to Inductions + Labor and Delivery: The Incredible, The Hard And One Terrible Nurse

• In this episode of The Momsense Podcast, Meg kicks things off with a trip to the movies to see the Lilo & Stitch live-action remake with Reese—was it heartwarming nostalgia or a Disney misstep? Then it’s birthday cake and celebrations as Meg rings in her 33rd year.

  Molly then gets real about her experience as the default parent—will you find it relatable, hysterical, or both? She also celebrates that feeling you get after a productive day, shares a meal-planning success story, and talks sleep routine management as a mom of an 8-month-old.

  Next, Molly and Meg brainstorm some fresh and fun segment options to replace “Cheers and Tears”—and they want your help! Around this time, things take a techy twist when Megan makes a surprising confession: she’s fully in her ChatGPT era, and she’s not ashamed—well, not ashamed enough to stop.

  Later, it’s a deep (and very real) dive into pregnancy. Molly and Meg walk through each trimester, sharing what they loved, what they loathed, and what took them by surprise—before shifting gears to compare their totally different labor and delivery stories. Think: two mostly smooth sailings, one rather stormy.

  And to wrap it up, they review their competition read: The Third Gilmore Girl by Kelly Bishop. Was it Lorelai-level witty or more of a Miss Patty side plot? Listen in to find out.
