NEWBORN Q&A: Rocky’s birth story, Alex’s postpartum update & how Tate is adjusting

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, WELCOME BABY ROCKY 🩵 OK hi guys - this is Jules!!! Here’s the rundown for today: Harrison is in the host chair for a newborn Q&A, so first of all, THANK YOU to everyone who submitted question (@Harrison how are my manners??). Alex joined by phone from bed with baby Rocky, and YES, we are aware the sound quality is giving “speakerphone in the trenches” at first... but we promise it gets better around the 14-minute mark lol. We get into Rocky’s birth story from Harrison’s perspective, why this delivery was night-and-day from the first one, how Alex is doing postpartum, and why they ended up staying at the hospital longer than expected.  Then Harrison answers YOUR questions: Rocky’s full name, the other baby boy names they almost picked, the nicknames already starting to happen, and the completely bizarre phenomenon where your first child somehow comes home looking five years older overnight. He also talks about how they introduced Tate to Rocky, how she’s adjusting so far, and what they’re most excited about as she steps into big sister life. Plus, whether having a boy feels any different than having a girl, whether Harrison cried when Rocky was born, and his advice for dads in the delivery room. And because this is still Two Parents & A Podcast, we get into Alex’s first postpartum meal, Rocky’s first stock (lol) & make plenty of episodes we’ve recorded but not put out yet hahahha (Dr. Becky, Dr. Brown & Feeding Specialist  what surprised Harrison most about becoming a second-time dad, Rocky’s first stock (lol), and how baby #2 is already feeling different from Tate in all the tiny ways you don’t really know to expect until you’re living it.
