EP 112 - CHILDFREE…TO PREGNANT ON PURPOSE: PART 2
Part 2 is here! We had a lot to cover in last week’s episode about Diane handing in her kid free card.
And, of course, a lot to catch up on after tech stuff threw us for a recording loop for a couple of weeks (woof).
First up, thank you for all your feedback on this episode! You shared in our DMs and IG comments:
That you almost blew your lunch out your nose hearing our dark humor
Severallll of you said you’ve been undecided on kids too
A couple of you are also siblings to special needs fam
And others just liked hearing this perspective
In Part 2, we’re bringing some general timelines, practical hormone health tips, and audio hugs for you— whether you’re looking towards preconception, kid free DINK lifestyle forever, or simply want a symptom free period + transition into peri/menopause.
In this episode of Get Your Shit Together…
🧡 Holiday reflections, and rocket real talk
🧡 Audio hugs and resources for those undecided, or scared of pregnancy
🧡 Why fertility matters whether you want a baby some day or not
🧡 Things to think about after The Pill, before getting preg, and before menopause
🧡 Diane’s fave moments of pregnancy, & what she would tell her past self
We realized we touched on a lot of topics we haven’t covered in a while (or perhaps at all!) in this episode. If there was something you’d like to hear more about on a future episode…let ya girls know via @getyourshittogetherpod Instagram DM!

Resources & Other Good Shit
What We’re Consuming
Adina is still making scones, now you can too with this recipe.
Diane is getting down on some truffle grilled cheese with tomato soup. YERM.
We’re both watching Nobody Wants This (Netflix) because there’s no one quite like Adam Brody / Seth Cohen / Dave Rygalski.
Diane is over election season and coverage, but def eating up the Diddy news via @houseinhabit Instagram, Substack, and carefully built TikTok FYP.
Other Good Shit
Diane laughed and cried along to @thedailytay book Birdie & Harlow: Life, Loss, and Loving My Dog So Much I Didn’t Want Kids (…Until I Did). If you’re a dog mom undecided about kids, or you did switch sides… this was such a good one! The audiobook felt like a memoir / podcast audiohug.
On the opposite end, Diane’s tapping mentor Gala Darling’s podcast episode about why she’s childfree was a great listen too: You Don’t Need Children to Have a Fabulous Life (And It’s Okay If You Don’t Want Them At All!)
Diane got a head start on comfy nursing bras and maternity/postpartum undies. These are ok, but if you want something that feels like supportive BUTTERRRR?! LOVING the Bodily bra bundle and All-In Panty pack. They even have C-Section friendly options!
Adina loved these Lovesteady support bloomers for her fourth trimester.
If you can have hair products in glass bottles, the Curly products from Organic Way are great!
