Ep. 400: 400th Episode: You Asked, We Answered

Laura and Shanna celebrate their 400th episode of "Big Fat Positive" with a very special "Checkin' the Inbox" segment, in which they answer listener questions sent in via voice memo! They dive into the topics of baby naming, deciding whether to have a second child, the parenting “rules” they swore they’d never break and more! Also, Shanna recaps Elle’s 10th birthday celebrations, and Laura shares a sweet sibling moment during Sebastian’s 5th birthday trip. Finally, the moms wrap up with their BFPs and BFNs for the week, including a party activity that will excite all your guests and an ingenious way to brush up on your foreign-language skills during your kids' bedtime. Shanna’s kids are 10 and 7 years old, and Laura’s kids are 7 and 5 years old.Topics discussed in this episode:Celebrating 400 episodes of Big Fat PositiveBig birthday milestonesHow the podcast has changed our livesHandling the decision about going from having more than one childBaby names we loveFun ideas for your kids' birthday partiesGraphic novels to read with your kidsA unique idea for brushing up on your foreign-language skillsProducts, links, resources mentioned in this episode:Speakpipe - Leave us a voice message!Doc Martens Girls' Sparkly Black BootsIndiana Jones ride at Disneyland"The Ghost Ship That Didn't Carry Us" by Cheryl StrayedClawsome claw machine rentals for events"Ghosts" by Raina Telgemeier"Fantasmas" by Raina TelgemeierPast BFP episodes mentioned in this episode:Ep. 399 - Where Shanna talks about the name Elara JaneEp. 396 - Where Laura surprises Auggie with a birthday trip to DisneylandConnect with UsFollow us on social: Instagram, TikTok or Facebook at @bfppodcastJoin our Facebook community group for support and camaraderie on your parenting journey.Visit our website: bigfatpositivepodcast.comEmail us: [email protected] us a voice message: speakpipe.com/bfppodcastIf you enjoyed this episode, help spread the word by sharing the show or leaving a review.
