July 24, 2023
Listen Now:
In the special segment “Why Is My Kid Crying?” Shanna and Laura share the things that have caused their little ones to melt down recently, including a sidewalk sob-fest that many adults can probably relate to, a thorny situation in the backyard and more! Also, Shanna discusses the relief of summer camp starting for her four-year-old, and Laura reports on her two-year-old’s recent trip to the ENT to assess his middle-ear fluid. Finally, they share their BFPs and BFNs for the week. Shanna’s kids are 4.5 and 7 years old, and Laura’s kids are 4 years old and 2 years old.
