Bumpie group chat: surrendering vs giving up in parenthood, how can we find quality time with our partners & what type of teenager were you?

After a few failed recording attempts, we are back on the mic and catching up on where we are at. We are both feeling a bit stretched but we know you’re in it with us, Bumpies. To lighten the mood, we laugh about the dumb sh*t we did as teenagers… and how we will definitely not be letting our kids do the same! We’re chatting…

• How Pearl’s second week of drop offs has been hard

• Jayde takes back what she said - parenting teens is A LOT

• “Leaning on in to tap the eff out”

• How negative feedback can take a toll on your mindset

• When you’re doing so much but feel like like none of it is good enough

• When are we spending time with our partner!?

• Sophie is petitioning for 5am dates

• What type of teenager were you?

• “I’m a cool mom!” Buying drinks and boy sleepovers

• Sharing our crazy teenage memories, plus stories Bumpies sent in
