Ever wonder why you ended up with curly hair while your sibling's is straight? Or how your friend just knew their baby would have blue eyes? It’s not magic—it’s genetics. And believe it or not, the answers often come down to a simple little chart called a Punnett square.
In this episode of Med Moms, things get personal—and a little weird. Lisa opens up about her massage routine (which may or may not involve full nudity and drooling on the table), and Faith takes us through her latest adventure in lymphatic drainage (fun fact: your pee will smell weird). They swap stories about Thai massages, Botox face creases, and why sleeping on your stomach might be aging you faster than your kids.
Oh—and then there's the great mystery of the smell in Lisa's house, plus the absolute chaos of Ubering your kid’s laundry across town like it’s totally normal. And just when you think it can’t get more real, they dive headfirst into genetics. From helping middle schoolers understand Punnett squares to realizing your daughter is literally your mother-in-law’s twin, Lisa and Faith explore how the big (and little) B's shape everything from eye color to cellulite—and yes, even your bat wings. Let's dive in!
