Did We Wait Too Long to Have Kids? The Truth About Starting Motherhood Later
Are we better moms because we waited to have kids… or are we just really, really tired?This week on Between Us Moms, Hallie and Katie are getting honest about becoming moms in their late 30s and asking the question: Is there actually a perfect age to have kids?From spending their 20s chasing careers and collecting passport stamps to navigating IVF, pregnancy loss, postpartum identity crises, and the reality of raising toddlers in their 40s, they're breaking down the highs, lows, and unexpected realities of having children later in life.They're talking about the perks of being older and wiser (hello, financial stability and emotional maturity!) and the not-so-fun parts (goodbye, energy and biological clock!). Plus, the emotional reality of being part of the "sandwich generation," caring for aging parents while raising little kids, and why the internet can't stop obsessing over when celebrities like Millie Bobby Brown, Cameron Diaz, and Hilary Swank choose to become moms.And in a hilarious round of rapid-fire questions, they put their 25-year-old selves up against their 40-something selves to find out who would actually make the better mom.So, did we get the timing right? Would we do it differently if we could? And does the perfect age to become a mom even exist?Grab your coffee (or something stronger), because we're getting into all of it.Now we want to hear from YOU! How old were you when you became a mom? Would you change the timing if you could?

Why Are Moms The Default Parent? Our Ben Affleck and Nara Smith Hot Takes & We're Back! | Between Us Moms
WE ARE SO BACK. Katie and Hallie are back on Between Us Moms after a little hiatus, and this week we're diving into the pop culture moments, motherhood debates, and very real mom feelings that have everyone talking. Nara Smith. Ben Affleck's recent comments and Alexander Skarsgard's weird shoes. There's a lot to unpack here.First, we're catching up on Dancing with the Stars! Who are we voting for? We're SO inspired by Ezra Frech, always rooting for Sharna Burgess, and think Taylor Hanson and Britt Stewart deserved more time on the show. Alexander Skarsgård's questionable plastic shoes have Hallie personally offended by his toes but Katie is concerned about something else. 😂Then, Ben Affleck's recent comments about co-parenting with Jennifer Garner spark a BIG conversation: Are moms actually better at parenting, or have we just been conditioned to believe we have to be? Do dads get to be the “fun parent”? And what would actually fall apart if you were away from home for 48 hours?We're also talking Nara Smith, who has defended her decision to have four kids before the age of 24 and says motherhood hasn't held back her career. The moms weighs in on the way her comments about “old moms” were framed, and we get into why there is no one-size-fits-all timeline for motherhood. Has becoming a mom changed your career plans? Do you think Nara's perspective is empowering, or does having resources make all the difference?Plus, life updates from our hosts, the magic of having kids in school for half the day, Hallie's newfound desire to attend ALL the weddings, and Katie reflecting on five years of marriage, what she's proud of, and a few things that still make her say “WTF.”And television right now. Is anyone else watching The Diplomat or War? We need to discuss!! We're so happy to be back, and we REALLY want to hear from you!Join the conversation: Are moms held to a different standard than dads? Did motherhood change your career dreams? Tell us your thoughts, and come hang out with us on Between Us Moms.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
