Summary
On this episode of Father Knows Less, Bobby Bones sits down with Lauren Alaina who shares what it’s really like adjusting to life with a newborn. The conversation turns deeply personal as Lauren walks through her birth story where the umbilical cord was wrapped around her daughter in multiple places, creating a dangerous situation during labor. From being induced to the intense, split-second decisions during delivery, and the overwhelming moment of hearing her daughter cry for the first time. Then Kickoff Kevin talks to Bobby about the different levels of chaos as a twin dad, sharing what it’s actually like to have two of everything and why nothing can truly prepare you for it. They get into the realities of paternity leave (and why it should be longer), the stuff no one tells you before becoming a parent, and the one thing every new mom or dad actually needs beyond all the gear and advice.

| 0:38.1 | All right, another episode of Father Knows Less. And because we don't do this as a real podcast, this is two different YouTube videos that we did. But the first one you may have seen with Lauren Elena, and we talked about her and her birth experience and how crazy it was. And you'll hear the ambilical court story. Pretty wild. I always love talking with Lauren. And then after that, we talk with one of the guys that works here with me, Kickoff Kevin. And he had twins, first babies. And we talked about what that's like for him. And so here is another episode. But yeah, you get it. And if you want to watch these, they're up on at Bobby Bones channel on YouTube. |
| 1:15.5 | But here is Father Knows Less. All right, I want to welcome Lauren Elena to the Father Knows Less show. Thank you, Lauren. Of course. Did you ever feel completely clueless when you had your kid? Every single day. I feel like I'm learning every day how to take care of a child. My question about being a new parent, and you're ahead of me a little bit because your baby's over a year now, right? No, she's 10 months. Well, I saw a picture. I thought it was your birthday party, like Hardy and all those other people. Everyone thinks that was Rosie's birthday party. Everyone thinks it was my daughter's birthday party. That's why I thought it was a year because a year because a lot of people have told me that they thought it. It was Hardy's daughter's birthday. Okay. |
| 1:23.0 | Yep. So your daughter is 10 months old. She'll be a year old June 11th. What's to do with traveling? |
| 1:46.8 | Because we haven't traveled. Our baby is just a few weeks old. When did you start feeling comfortable traveling with your child? Like on a plane? Yeah. I have not. You have not? I have done it. But you said what I feel comfortable. What is that? Like what's the protocol? No, actually, Benny is really great. She's a really easy traveler. If my husband's with me or someone is with me, I feel comfortable, but it would be really hard to do it by myself. |
| 1:50.0 | Because what do you have to do extra with a baby that you don't have to do when it's |
| 1:55.0 | just you? |
| 1:56.0 | Well, figuring out where to feed her, breastfeeding, and then you have to travel with so much stuff. |
| 2:03.6 | That seems to be the thing everywhere we go now. It's just so much stuff. |
| 2:06.8 | Like, it's not just a... I mean, we are now at the age where it does get better because we're at the age now where I feel like I can take the baby and a change of clothes if, you know, she poops all over herself |
| 2:19.0 | or spill something and like diapers essentially and get away with it. If we're going to like a |
| 2:26.3 | restaurant because she now eats food too. She's not just like taking milk. Right. |
| 2:37.5 | It's a total adjustment. |
| 2:42.3 | I mean, like if you fly with your child, you have to take a pack and play because they're going to have to have somewhere to sleep. |
| 2:45.5 | I mean, you take a lot of stuff. |
| 2:47.0 | But you get used to it. |
| 2:48.3 | It's just your whole life change. |
| 2:49.6 | Like you start taking less stuff for you and you take everything for them. |
| 2:52.9 | Like I'm re-wearing the shirt a couple times. |
| 2:55.7 | You know what I mean? |
| 2:56.3 | Like I'm not going to take 18 outfit choices. |
