New motherhood is a beautiful journey . . . that comes with a few bumps and a lot of questions along the way. Is my baby eating enough? Too much? Why won’t she latch? What’s that rash? Do we need to take him to the ER? Will I ever sleep again? It can feel frustrating when you don’t know what’s normal, or what advice is helpful, or which tools aren’t. If you’re a new mom or love someone who is, Emily and Kristin are here for you! As twin moms with five kids between them, they share how they weathered the physical and emotional rollercoaster after giving birth, how to actually say yes to help, and the most helpful routines they kept with their newborns. The BFFs also swap best tools and best advice, like how to choose which mom you want to be in this season (mom with a clean house? mom who wears makeup? mom who works out? pick one, not all). Because sometimes, you’ve got to survive before you can thrive. And after a while, you will get the hang of this, mama — promise.   Thanks to our affiliate partner!   GROVE COLLABORATIVE | Find home & wellness products great for your family and the planet.
