TV Moms Lied to Us: Sleep, Pumping & Postpartum Pressure

In this episode, we’re calling out theTV version of motherhood— where babies magically sleep, moms bounce back without a breakdown, and parenting somehow fits neatly into a primetime slot.

We’re talking:

• Why characters like Meredith Grey and Georgia Miller gave us high expectations andzero reality

• The real-life chaos of postpartum hair loss, sleep deprivation, and being overstimulated by everything (and everyone)

• Pumping at work, crying in bathroom stalls, and trying to still be “professional”

• Why so many moms feel like they’re falling short — when really, we’re doing more than enough

Whether you’re weeks into postpartum or just realizing how different real mom life is from what you expected — you are not alone 💛
