I FAILED THE 1-HOUR GLUCOSE TEST FOR GESTATIONAL DIABETES!

Описание: This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, we’re getting ready to BABYMOON. If you’re watching this, we’re on the beach right now (yay) trying to figure out what you even call a babymoon for baby number two (because “babymoon” feels… aggressive). Sprinkle? Second moon? TBD. Either way, we recorded this episode right before heading out and immediately spiraled.

We start with trip planning debates, pregnancy food rules (can you eat beef carpaccio while pregnant or is that a hard no?), and the age-old question of what actually matters more at a restaurant: the food or the vibe.

Then we get into the big one: failing the one-hour glucose test. What it means, what it doesn’t, what comes next, and why it’s way less dramatic than it sounds but still mentally jarring when you get the call. From there, we talk about ear piercing timing, leg shaving & making the bed (AGAIN).

Mid-episode we cover Valentine’s Day, the jewelry-box-at-dinner move, whether we regret buying so much pink before having a boy, and the very real struggle of finding a nickname for baby boy that YOU GUYS like lol.

Travel etiquette becomes a full debate (as always): reclining seats, switching seats for families, and whether you’re ever obligated to move on a plane. We also get into babysitter etiquette (if you say “help yourself to anything,” do you actually mean anything?), and then unpack the viral Girl Scout story where one girl sold $450k worth of cookies… and where that money really goes (ps. Did you guys sell magazines too?!)

We wrap with a Bicker of the Week, two Things We DMed Each Other (Norway dominating the Olympics with wildly different youth sports rules and DoorDash drivers getting paid to close Waymo doors), and a parenting takeaway that stuck with us all week: tell kids what TO do, not just what NOT to do.

LOVE YOU GUYS. Thanks for listening!!!
