Episode description

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast — IT’S A BOY!!! 🎉 We’re breaking down everything from how we found out, how we’re feeling now that we know, and why I was so sure it was a girl (spoiler: I was wrong).

We get into the excitement, the nerves, and what we’re most looking forward to about welcoming a little boy, plus our thoughts on gender-reveal parties and which old wives’ tales actually held up.

Before all that — family-style dinners at weddings (the BEST??), a father-son moment at the World Series, and a full pregnancy update with all the latest symptoms.

In Bicker of the Week: is it gross to put your suitcase on the bed? (We NOW have the same take LOL) And of course, in Things We DMed Each Other: why McDonald’s Diet Coke just hits different, and getting ready for Tate’s second Halloween 👻

LOVE YOU GUYS — thanks for celebrating this big moment with us!! 💙
