| 0:00.0 | Hi, welcome to Big Fat Positive with Shauna and Laura. On this week's episode, we have our weekly |
| 0:06.6 | check-ins. We have one of our favorite special segments, Internet Insanity, where I learn about a |
| 0:12.2 | truly shocking beauty regimen, and Laura puts us all to the challenge. We wrap things up with our |
| 0:18.0 | weekly BFPs and BFNs. Let's get started. Hey, welcome to episode 62. |
| 0:24.3 | Laura, how are you? Hi, we're doing good. How are you? Good. How old's your baby? What's going on? |
| 0:30.7 | My baby is seven months old. He turned seven months this week and oh boy. So it's been a week. So he is starting to do an army crawl. |
| 0:43.9 | All right. He's not really interested in getting his knees underneath him, but he is starting to, he puts his little like right elbow out and then with his like his left foot he pushes off at the same time |

| 1:55.4 | I mean, he is my son. So if I could get away with never doing a plank again, I would. |
| 2:02.2 | So I don't blame him. |
| 2:07.0 | But yeah, so it's exciting that he's, you know, starting to move around and, you know, a little terrifying at the same time. So let's see. There's another thing that's happening this week is |
