    Episode 4: Mom Bods

    Episode 4: Mom Bods

    On Episode 4 of 2M2F, Kim and Karen talk about mom bods and all of the wonderful, horrible, confusing and hilarious transformations that happen to a woman's body after birth. And while they both agree it's important to embrace how strong and beautiful their new bodies can sometimes feel, they are solidly out on pregnancy-induced baldness.
    Then, Kim and Karen sit-down with Natalie Stechyson, Parents Editor of HuffPost Canada, to shed light on some of the harsh realities about mom bods that we don't often talk about. Plus regular segments "My Name's Not Mom" and "Unsolicited Advice."
