How to Be a Good Friend When Your BFF Has a Baby

Your best friend, sibling, or coworker is pregnant or just had a baby—now what?! If you’ve ever wondered how to support a friend through pregnancy, postpartum, and the transition into parenthood (without being annoying), this episode is for you. I sit down with my friend Jamie, a new mom, to get the unfiltered scoop on what to say, what NOT to say, and how to actually show up for your friends in this life stage—even if you have zero experience with babies. We talk about the biggest mistakes people make, the things new moms secretly wish you’d do, and why your friendship doesn’t have to change (even if everything else does). Whether you’re single, dating, or just nowhere near parenthood, this is the ultimate guide to being a thoughtful, supportive, and not cringey friend during this huge life transition.
