Parenting is Hard w/ Matt & Stacy Barnes

Before you have kids, there's the issue of getting them. For some, super easy. (And fun!). For others, it can be a long and even painful journey. In this first of two episodes on the topic, we share:

our journey dealing with infertility

everything you want to know about IVF (and maybe some things you don't!)

what led us to surrogacy (for the 2nd set of twins)

Plus, we've got our Parenting Wins and even more of yours!

This is Episode Seven of Parenting is Hard with Matt & Stacy Barnes.

Dealing with Sickness (aka "I'm Sick Of This!")

Being sick sucks. Having sick kids sucks too. Being sick while you have sick kids? That's when you find yourself asking why you got into this whole parenting thing to begin with. This week, we're talking about dealing with kid sickness. We've experienced quite a bit with sickness in the past four years and have figured out quite a few tips we're sharing with you this week. But, it's not just us and our tips, a number of our listeners contributed to these tips to deal with sickness! Tips such as:

  1. Make a Chart (and Keep Your Charts!)
  2. Keep Notes!
  3. Steamy Showers and Long Baths
  4. Humidifiers and Diffusers
  5. Shut it Down!
  6. No Shoes
  7. Let Them Sleep!
  8. Mask Up

Not only that, but we share a list of our favorite products that help make the whole sickness thing a little more bearable. And, as always, Parenting Wins!

This is Episode Six of Parenting is Hard w/ Matt & Stacy Barnes!
