In this episode the girls catch up after being on break for a couple of weeks but are coming back to one hell of an announcement!
The ladies talk about working through the next few weeks of holiday chaos, expectations and the traditions they hope to keep - and the ones they hope to ditch.
Join us this week as we crack down on what is considered to be the most wonderful time of the year and reflect on how the best is yet to come.

In the Season Finale of “What’s Up, Mom?”, the girls encourage Moms to trust their inner voice and gut feelings when it comes to their Children.
They discuss why Mothers have this keen Intuition, the first time the girls experienced it in their own motherhood journeys. and when to trust that GUT feeling - rather than relying on advice or input from others.
That’s a wrap - we hope you loved our first season as much as we did.
Stay tuned for our Holiday Special coming up in December and a Season 2 Premiere Release Date.
Thank you to the WUM Family and supporters - We cannot wait to see what happens next.

In this episode of What's Up, Mom?, we dive into the mental load—the invisible weight moms carry managing household tasks, family schedules, and emotional needs. We discuss why delegating to partners isn't always easy, how kids impact marriage satisfaction, and why communication is key. Plus, we share personal tips like therapy, weekly check-ins, and quality time to ease the load. Katie- morningmusingsofamom

Parenting and mothering can be a bumpy ride -this week the girls talk about how in the world moms understand and cope with the overstimulation of their families, the world around them and trying to do a bit better every day for yourself – which will filter through to your kids, partner and the rest of the world. We touch on patience, time outs for Mom and using help where you can. The hormones we have in our bodies can’t keep up with today’s inputs if we don’t have some sort of outlet to free up space in our minds.

An in depth look at body image - the feelings surrounding the “Bounce back” culture after birth and the rat race to stop the feeling before it takes over. Oh and some illicit drugs…that we do not do.

Patty and Michaela explore the idea that everything will go perfectly according to your birth plan. Many women map out every aspect of how they’ll approach motherhood, but once the baby arrives, those plans often shift. From breastfeeding to formula decisions, and the products you thought were essential, it’s common to feel like you’re not measuring up if things don’t unfold as you imagined.
