From the Positive Test to the Teenager Years

from Baby Steps Podcast · host M Design Village

Megan opens up about her pregnancy journey, the advice that actually helped versus the stuff she wishes she'd ignored, the books she read (and the ones she threw across the room), and how she prepared for a baby while working in an industry that doesn't exactly slow down for anyone. She talks about the birth, the early days at home, the nursery decisions that felt impossibly high-stakes at the time, and the safety rabbit holes every first-time parent falls into. Now a mom to a teenager, Megan has the benefit of hindsight — and she's not afraid to share what she'd do differently, what she'd do exactly the same, and what she wishes someone had told her before the baby arrived. This one's for every parent who's ever stood in a nursery at midnight wondering if they're ready. Spoiler: nobody is.
