Now that we’ve covered our birth stories we’re going to dig into pregnancy and parenting, the core of our show!

First, we talk about last week’s messes: potty training, being sleep deprived with a newborn, and realizing that we need to shift some more focus back onto our relationship instead of solely on being parents. Afterwards, we cover gestational diabetes: What is gestational diabetes? What options do you have regarding being tested for GD? What is it like to manage GD? And even a little bit of controversy: “Is gestational diabetes a scam?!”

Next week’s episode will be discussing your options for your choosing your birth team: OBGYN, midwife, doula, or maybe even just you/your family AKA “freebirth.”

The Best Messes is hosted by Matt and Susi, husband and wife, parents of 2 daughters sharing their knowledge, opinions, and experience regarding pregnancy and parenting and all the best messes that come with both! New episodes launch on Sundays! Be sure to follow so you never miss an episode! Leave a review or write us at thebestmesses@gmail.com for feedback and/or topic requests! Don’t forget to share our show or episode if you know someone that might be interested, it’d mean the world to us!

Thanks for listening and… we’ll see you next mess!
