Welcome to the pregnancy to parenting show.

Welcome back to the show.

I hope that you enjoyed last week, episodes five days full of giveaways if you haven't

checked it out it's not too late to sign up or to enter the giveaways as long as you do it by January 31st and then the drawings will take place and I'm really excited to announce the winners and celebrate you guys and thank you so much for participating. I've had so many people

DMing me, screenshoting the episode, sharing it on their socials, and

reaching out. So it's been a lot, a lot of fun because it's also just another way that I get to connect with the

listeners I love hearing from you guys whenever people reach out to me and they're like

hey I've been listening to your podcast since day one it just means so much that you guys have been following along the journey.

I love to get to know you a little bit.

I know some of you started listening before you had kids and now you're in that season of life

of starting to try or you started listening when you had little ones and you're

growing with us as our family's growing and it's just it's so much fun to connect with you.

I'm really excited about today's podcast. Since it's January we know that

January is full of New Year's resolutions and often people already failing dropping out of those, right?

So I wanted to do something not about a resolution, but something that is

is not about a resolution but something that all of us kind of get hit with and whether you have

kids or not and that is overwhelm.

I know for me I definitely got overwhelmed before I had kids and it just changes you

can't really compare you can't say it's more with kids it's less like you
