Am I Too Selfish For Motherhood?

As Jordana shares stories of her dog Ron’s jealousy of the new babies, Dr. Naomi remembers her pet Ralphie and wonders if he felt ignored when her children arrived many years ago. A fellow “type-b mother” sheds her shame and confesses her maternal instincts are often second nature to her personal survival skills, and she asks if it spells trouble for her kids. On the topic of dogs again, a woman is irked that her co-workers' fear of four legged creatures is banning the office mascot from bringing joy to her cubicle every Friday and she is hell bent on making a case for the pooch. After her son received no party invitations from his classmates at daycare, a tear-filled mother spills her feelings in a voicemail and the hosts unpack the source of these painful emotions. Feeling the stress of keeping a newborn safe, a new mom is triggered after finding her husband and baby asleep in an unsafe position and she is worried he doesn't take safety as seriously. Finally an accidental text message spoils a (somewhat) surprise engagement and a Betch is left lamenting her dream proposal scenario. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
