After Bedtime with Big Little Feelings

After Bedtime with Big Little Feelings

Real talk? Modern parenting is a doozy. There’s never been more pressure to be perfect with social media readily at our fingertips - mixed with total isolation and no help. Where the f*ck is that village everyone talks about? Consider After Bedtime your village. Led by Kristin and Deena - founders of the largest online parenting community, Big Little Feelings - After Bedtime is the place you can go at the end of a long hard day to find your “enough”-ness. We’ll laugh, we’ll cry, we’ll maybe pee our pants a little as we unpack things we’re ALL experiencing but too ashamed to talk about: imperfect marriages, miscarriages, managing toddler mania, apologizing to our kids and everything in between. You’ll leave with actionable, realistic tips to make this whole parenting thing smoother - small changes, big impact. In an age where parents need more *real* connection than ever, let’s talk honestly about the hard - and remind ourselves we are not alone, we are not failing. In fact, we’re f*cking crushing it.

If you’ve ever given birth, are about to give birth, or love someone who’s about to, this episode is a MUST. Deena opens up about how she’s preparing for baby #3, and this time? It’s not about a hospital bag or the perfect birth plan. It’s about mental health. Nervous system regulation. Self-advocacy. And building a postpartum setup that actually supports her.In this raw and radically honest conversation, Kristin and Deena go deep on:What Deena learned from two very different birth experiencesHow she’s breaking the fear–tension–pain cycle with science-backed toolsWhy the key to a “good birth” isn’t epidural vs. unmedicated - it’s how you’re treatedWhat it looks like to prep your partner and kids to support you after birthHow to unapologetically ask for what you need - even when it’s uncomfortableYou’ll walk away feeling grounded, empowered, and ready to take up space in your birth and postpartum experience - because you deserve to be held, seen, and supported.

It’s about being powerful.Fisher Price x Big Little Feelings - Brain-boosting play kits designed by expertsThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.
