    The Day Meredith's Birth Plan Went in the Trash

    “The Day Meredith’s Birth Plan Went In The Trash” is a hilarious, honest peek into how motherhood loves to laugh at our carefully color‑coded plans. In this episode, Meredith sits down to share her birth story, the one she thought she was going to have… and the one she actually got. Through all the twists, turns, and unexpected plot changes, Meredith finds the humor, the heart, and the deeper lesson: motherhood is one long practice in letting go, trusting the process, and realizing that even the biggest planners can’t plan everything. If you’ve ever had a plan go up in flames, this episode will make you laugh, nod your head, and feel a little less alone in the beautiful mess of it all. Support the show

    You Can't Spreadsheet Your Way Through Childbirth

    In this week’s episode, we’re diving into the wild, beautiful, and totally unscripted story of Achint’s birth story. You’ll hear how the best-laid birth plan met real life… and real life won. From checklists to the unexpected twists that no one could have predicted, this is a story about what happens when a Type A personality has to surrender control in the most intense way possible. Spoiler: not everything went as planned. The timeline shifted, the interventions changed, and the vibe went from “calm, zen goddess” to “okay, so we’re just doing whatever now.” Somewhere between contractions and conversations with the doctor, there was a moment of letting go, of the plan, the perfectionism, and the idea that you can spreadsheet your way through childbirth.  If you’re a planner, a control enthusiast, or someone who just loves an honest, unfiltered story, this episode is for you.

    AMA & Unfiltered: Older, Wiser, and still Googling Everything

    Welcome to the very first episode of Advanced Maternal Age, the podcast for anyone who’s ever been told they’re a “geriatric pregnancy” and thought, absolutely not, ma’am!  Hosted by two friends and first-time moms, Meredith and Achint, this show gets real about what it’s like to become (and be) a mom after 35, the good, the bad, the weird, and the “wait, is this normal or should I call someone?” In this debut episode, we’re kicking things off with: Who we are: Two women who did NOT have kids in our twenties, have opinions about it, and also have under-eye circles that could tell war stories.  How we met: From strangers to friends to “please look at this rash on my baby’s butt” level of intimacy.   Why did we start this podcast? Because the internet is full of 24-year-old moms doing synchronized stroller workouts and we were like, “Cool… but where are the tired, career-juggling, bone-cracking-when-we-stand-up moms?” What “advanced maternal age” really means; and why the label can take a seat.   Expect unfiltered stories, a lot of laughter, some swearing, and zero judgment. If you’ve ever felt “behind,” “too old,” or like everyone else got the parenting memo 10 years before you, pull up a chair. You’re our people.  Hit play, meet Meredith and Achint, and stick around for a season full of real talk about motherhood… just with slightly older knees.
