The waddling Truth – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, we talk about what happens when the one place you’re supposed to feel safe—the exam room—becomes the source of your worst fears. We break down the alleged Fort Hood OB‑GYN recording scandal and what it means for every pregnant woman who has ever laid on a table in a paper gown and hoped she could trust her doctor.

Alicia (ultrasound tech and owner of Lil Blessings Baby 4D in Temple, TX) and Kristian (mom of 5 girls under 7) share how this news is shaking their Central Texas and military community, what Alicia is hearing from scared clients, and why so many moms are now questioning medical consent, privacy, and boundaries.

We cover:

• What’s being alleged in the Fort Hood OB‑GYN case and why it hits so close to home for military families

• The power imbalance in OB/GYN and L&D settings—and how that silence can be dangerous

• Red flags to watch for in exams, ultrasounds, and hospital policies

• Practical scripts you can use to say “no,” ask questions, and bring a support person into the room

• How to advocate for yourself without feeling “dramatic,” “crazy,” or “difficult”

If you’ve ever left an appointment feeling uneasy but unsure why, this conversation is your reminder that your body, your privacy, and your consent are not negotiable. You deserve to understand what’s happening to you and to feel safe while it’s happening.

New here?
Two moms. Nine kids. Zero filters. The Waddling Truth is where medical expertise (Alicia) meets real‑life chaos (Kristian) so you feel less alone and more informed through pregnancy, postpartum, and everything that comes after.

If you’ve ever stared at your newborn at 2 a.m. wondering, “is this normal or should I call someone?”, this episode is for you. We’re talking about the funny, stressful, wildly unhinged parts of newborn life no one warned you about—but every parent ends up Googling in the dark.

From Cirque du Soleil stretches, demon‑level eye rolls, and grown‑man farts to poop becoming your entire personality and blowouts that only happen at church, we’re here to tell you: your baby is weird, and that’s completely normal. We’ll get into feeding chaos, sleep deprivation that makes you feel feral, postpartum hormones, and why being overwhelmed does not cancel out how much you love your baby.

If you’re constantly asking “is this normal?” and worrying you’re doing everything wrong, you are exactly the mama this podcast was made for. Two moms, nine kids, zero filters—ultrasound tech Alicia and mom‑of‑5 Kristian are here to help you breathe again and say, “oh yeah…that’s normal.

Never have I ever… cried over cold fries, farted in public, or eaten pickles with ice cream while pregnant? In this unfiltered ‘Never Have I Ever: Pregnancy Edition,’ we confess it all—cravings, gas, meltdowns, and the emotional rollercoaster no one warns you about. If you’re pregnant, postpartum, or love someone who is, this episode will make you laugh, cringe, and feel a little less alone in the chaos.

Pregnant and wondering if that “bump” is actually just gas, if you’re losing your mind, or if your birth plan even matters? In this episode of The Waddling Truth, Alicia (ultrasound tech) and Kristian (mom of 5) get real about what pregnancy actually feels like—far beyond the cute maternity photos. They unpack pregnancy brain, bloat vs baby, cervical checks, vaccines in pregnancy, cryptic pregnancies, and what it really looks like to advocate for yourself in the delivery room without feeling like “that patient.”

You’ll hear honest stories, medical insight that doesn’t feel scary, and the kind of big-sister energy you wish you had at 2 AM when Google is making you spiral. If you’re pregnant, trying to conceive, or still processing a past birth, this conversation will help you feel less alone, more informed, and a lot more confident about trusting your own instincts.

Your pregnant body isn’t broken—it’s just turned into a full‑on haunted house. From gagging while you brush your teeth to waking up in a puddle of drool, we’re pulling back the curtain on the weird, unsexy, totally normal pregnancy and postpartum symptoms nobody puts in the pamphlets. You’ll hear about smell rage, permanent stuffy nose vibes, night‑sweats, random carpal tunnel, and all the “is this just me?” moments that are actually wildly common.

If you’ve ever whispered, “Why is my body betraying me?” in the dark, this episode is your permission slip to stop blaming your body and start seeing these changes as part of a wild, transformative season. Hit play, laugh with us, and remember—mama, you are not alone in this chaos.

Is my womb an air fryer, or am I just sunburned, swollen, and crying over a spoon? In this Waddling After Dark episode, ultrasound tech Alicia and mom‑of‑5 Kristian answer your wildest pregnancy questions—from Liquid IV black box warnings and salty-craving nausea to peeing when you laugh, postpartum swelling, and why every smell feels like a personal attack. Perfect for pregnant and postpartum moms dealing with 2 a.m. anxiety who want honest pregnancy advice, real talk motherhood, and a mom podcast with humor that actually makes you feel less alone.​

Frida Baby is facing massive backlash for “funny” baby product packaging that many parents now see as sexual innuendo and a child-safety red flag. In this RageBate episode of The Waddling Truth, we unpack the Frida Baby / Frida Mom controversy, how dark humor shows up in modern parenting brands, and why exhausted moms are rethinking who they trust in the baby aisle.

We also talk about social media outrage, the Epstein files, and a growing awareness of child exploitation—without fearmongering—so you can question brands confidently and still live your real life as a pregnant or postpartum mom.

Nobody warns you how hard marriage can get after a baby. In this episode, we talk about how love languages shift, why resentment creeps in, and what it really looks like to parent in survival mode. From postpartum numbness and insecurity to the awkward “are we ever going to have sex again?” conversations, we share real stories, real feelings, and small ways to reconnect when you barely have energy to shower. Love doesn’t disappear after baby—but it definitely needs some rest and intentional care.

Roasting your assumptions about us… what could go wrong? In this Waddling After Dark episode, Kristian and Alicia read what you really think about them as parents and podcasters—and roast every last assumption with dark humor and unfiltered honesty. If you’ve ever wondered who’s the villain, who’s actually neutral, or why their communication styles clash so hard, this one is for you.

Kristian leans all the way into playing devil’s advocate just to see Alicia’s reaction, while Alicia tries (and usually fails) to stay neutral and measured. They dig into controversial takes, the chaos of motherhood, and what it’s like to create content when your real life is already a circus. Parenting, partnership, and podcasting are all messy, and if you feel a little attacked by this episode… good.

Nobody told you about this part of pregnancy.

Not the weaponized gas.

Not the chin hair that grows back by lunch.

Not the blurry vision, mystery discharge, hemorrhoids, skin drama, or crying because someone breathed wrong.

This week on The Waddling Truth, we’re talking about the symptoms that feel criminal… but are actually common. What’s hormonal, what’s normal, and when to call your provider — all with zero sugarcoating.

Pregnancy is magical.

Pregnancy is mildly unhinged.

And you are not dramatic.
