This episode is brought to you by Name Bubbles. It is back to school season and you know what that means.

Lots of items are heading to school and they're not always necessarily coming back. They're either headed to the lost and found, they're left on the school bus, their friends take them home thinking they're theirs.

How can we prevent this from happening? Well, I have just the thing, and it is called name bubbles. It is a mom

founded and mom-owned brand made in a small town in upstate New York. These are durable,

waterproof name labels for kids stuff, including lunch boxes, water bottles, backpacks, clothing, you name it.

They have something to put your child's name on it. So it comes back home. These will be staying on

long term because they are dishwasher safe and laundry safe. They're not only for school. They're

also great for daycare, sports, camps, anywhere where things tend to go missing. With children, that's most

places. So save yourself from having to order things that you already purchased this year.

bubbles. Honestly, if it starts buzzing around, you guys are probably going to hear it on the microphone.

But anyways, I wanted to give you guys an update on the birth control pill. Do you remember? I started it a few

weeks ago. Actually, no, I started it. I think about the week before we went to Cancun, which was, let's say the last week of June. And at first I was like, oh my God, have I made a terrible mistake? I don't know why when I was younger. It was not a big deal at all to be on birth control. I didn't even think about it. But now that I've had a child and I'm getting

older, it seems like, oh my gosh, like I shouldn't be taking birth control. Like it's some bad,

unhealthy thing. I don't know. It's weird. Anyways, when we were in Cancun, I was spotting and

bleeding so unbelievably that I was like, okay, is the birth control just not doing

anything for me? Is it going to be like this forever? And then after I had like that massive periodish
