When people have like a dreamy birth experience, I feel myself being like, dang it. That's because I associated the outcome of a birth with some type of personal achievement. Going for a V-back, I just really want to try again. But then it's like, okay, now I have to be aware of these wrists on my life or of this baby's life. I needed my mom. I needed my mom too. Even during labor when I saw my mom, I was like, oh, mom. Like, you know.

0:23.3

The way that I found out that you were pregnant of a funny story. Oh, my God, I just remember that. How did you know? I said it says it on the wall. Welcome back to the unplanned podcast. Today, I have my lovely sister-in-laws yeah they're both about to bust and i

There guys are crushing it, honestly. Yeah. I want to talk all things, maybe, because this is like the last time, potentially.

1:12.8

This is going to be the only time that we're all pregnant together.

1:14.7

Could be. Which is so funny. Obviously, you guys are in a totally different stage. I'm also pregnant. And I feel like I'm in a totally different stage. But it's just, I mean, still, it counts. We're all having babies at the same time. And that's like, that's something special that might never happen again.

1:29.9

All within like the same like grade in school year. That's true. Like if you think about it that way. Like, yeah, we're kind of far apart, but they're all, they would all be in the same grade. It'll even out eventually. It'll even out eventually. For the first like two years it's going to be so obvious.

1:42.1

Like every month makes a difference.

1:44.4

And I feel like even for a while between CJ and Augie,

1:46.5

where there were only 18 days.

1:47.9

I was like to. the first like two years it's going to be so obvious like every month makes a difference and i feel like

2:17.6

Yeah, that's how we figured it out.

2:18.9
