[UNRELEASED EPISODE] We recorded everything we were feeling the night before birth

from Two Parents & A Podcast · host Alex & Harrison Fugman

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re doing something a little different… we’re releasing a (previously unreleased) episode we recorded ONE YEAR AGO, the night before Tate was born. We tried to capture every thought, fear, and feeling leading up to the biggest moment of our lives—and answer the most asked questions we were getting at the time!!!  In this time capsule of a conversation, we share why we decided to schedule an induction, what we’d tell ourselves at the start of pregnancy, and our #1 piece of advice for anyone just beginning their pregnancy journey. We talk pregnancy food craving eras (lol), regrets, whether to put your baby on social media, and how we landed on Tate’s name (kind of). Plus, we guess what we thought birth and life post-baby would look like. Re-listening a year later was surreal, and we’re so excited for you guys to hear it. THANK YOU GUYS for being part of this journey from the very beginning—this one’s special :) LOVE YOU GUYS!
