Two Parents & A Podcast

Happy Thursday! In today’s episode, we dive into baby feeding – breast, bottle, combo – all of it. We’re answering all YOUR questions—my personal breastfeeding journey, the mental struggles of breastfeeding, and what we’ve learned about formulas in the US vs. Europe. This is probably my #1 asked topic on social (and honestly, what’s on my mind most of the time), so I’m excited we sat down and shar...

We’re diving into our joint finances (what we said we were gonna do, but spoiler alert: didn’t), the costs of childcare, and how we’re setting up a college fund for...

On THIS WEEK’s episode – We’re diving into a juicy Q&A about s*x, intimacy, and date nights post-baby (and other Qs but that's the juicy stuff)! We talk all things keeping the spark alive as parents, navigating intimacy while breastfeeding, and how we've avoid falling into any sort of "roommate phase" (disclaimer: we know, we know - we're still new at this). We also touch on some of your other que...

Welcome to the FIRST episode of Two Parents & A Podcast (feels weird not saying ‘back to another episode of Just Alex!!!’).

Welcome back to another episode of Just Alex! So, hypothetically—if you’ve exhausted all resources and anticipated all needs—what’s the least amount of cries a 3-month-old could have in a day?!
