A Different Approach to My Second Maternity Leave

from Bossed Up Hosted by Emilie Aries | Bossed Up, LLC

What would you do differently the second time around? I’m getting the chance to dig deep into this question as I prepare for my second maternity leave this fall. As my due date crawls closer, I have been thinking a lot about what my family’s lives will look like after the baby arrives. In this episode, I highlight three specific ways I’m adjusting my approach and the systemic and personal factors that affect these decisions. How would you navigate these second-baby considerations? What’s changed with saving up for childcare (for me and for Americans everywhere); Why I’m fixating less on birth and more on what comes after; Where I’ve decided to focus my nesting instincts this time around.
