Hi My Name Is Mom

The One Where Kaela Almost Died

Kaela went through a terrifying, and truly life-threatening, experience during our hiatus, and she opens up about what happened on today's episode. An undiagnosed ectopic pregnancy turned into an emergency surgery that left us all shaken, and Kaela with a new outlook on how she wants to expand her family.  She's on a whole new journey to explore surrogacy and adoption. It's heartbreaking, and honest, and hard... and so so real. We're covering her in hugs, and hugging our babies tight, as we share the newest chapter in her mommy story.

The Unhappy Happy Hour: Meghan Markle, Martinis, & Miscarriage

Just wanted to give you a head’s up that today’s episode of HMNIM is a little bit of a departure from our typical podcast. We try be really authentic with you guys, and so we decided to air this as is...

Kaela and Jen had decided they were going to get the babies together for a evening playdate, record a podlet, have a martini and talk about the Royals… 

We called Corri on FaceTime, to say hi,  and we had no idea the direction this conversation was about to take. We never expected to get so deep, so fast.

Here’s what happened.
