In this episode, I’m yapping about screen time, but first we need to catch up. I talk about my latest Real Housewives thoughts, current nap situations, summer plans, pool days, and Nene’s basement renovation.
Then I get into the main topic: screen time. I talk through how differently I handled TV with my first two kids versus my second two, why we are a no-iPad family except for airplanes, why big-screen TV feels very different to me than small-screen/iPad/ screen time, and how I’ve learned that the hardest part of screen time with toddlers is usually the dismount. I’m not a zero screen time parent, my big girls absolutely watch TV, but my little two basically don’t during the week, and somehow that has become our normal.
I also answer listener questions about early morning wakes, staying cool when the wheels are falling off, the first couple weeks postpartum, and what I personally focus on during the first 48 hours with a newborn, especially when it comes to breastfeeding.
