Pregnant Tears & Parenting Backfires

This week's full of pregnancy hormone crying stories, parenting situations that have backfired on them, parent news and more.

Starting with yays and nays - Bec is yaying the cute support card from her daughter before a big work meeting, and naying how overshadowed her amazing birthday cake for the 4yo was by the real life dinosaur that was Sam in a t-rex suit that showed up (not that she'd change it!). Sam is yaying the kids cute gratitude and belief in dad-strength, while naying his ability to open a banana wrong (according to the 1yo).

We share stories sent in from pregnant mums about what they've cried over, from their husband picking the wrong imaginary fish, to the shops being out of food and a TV never finding love - pregnancy is a wild ride!

Then we have the answers to the question we asked on Facebook this week - what's the parenting thing that backfired on you? White lies or great ideas that just didn't work out as planned. From some little and not so little lies to unknown allergies, to kids calling bluffs - these stories are just a few ways parenting can backfire on you!

We wrap this episode with two parent news stories. One a single mother booted off a zoom courtroom for making PB&J, the other another Bluey update.
