    "Your Baby Isn’t Colicky… They’re in Pain?” What Every Mom Should Know with Lori Hendrickson

    Send us Fan Mail What if your baby isn’t “just fussy”… but actually trying to tell you something? In this episode, I sit down with cranial sacral therapist Lori Hendrickson to talk about a topic many parents have never heard of—but wish they had sooner. We dive into **Cranial Sacral Therapy (CST)** and how hidden tension in a baby’s body can show up as colic, constant crying, trouble nursing, poor sleep, or a generally unhappy baby. Lori explains how the birth process, positioning in the womb, and even seemingly “normal” deliveries can leave babies holding tension in their tiny bodies. Through gentle, hands-on work, CST aims to release that tension and help babies feel more comfortable, regulated, and calm. If you’ve ever wondered why your baby seems uncomfortable, arches, cries for hours, struggles to latch, or just never seems settled—this conversation might open your eyes to a perspective you’ve never considered. From mom to mom, woman to woman, this episode is about **understanding our babies better and exploring gentle, supportive options that help them thrive.** We cover: * What **cranial sacral therapy** actually is * Why so many babies are labeled “colicky” * Signs your baby may be holding tension in their body * How birth can impact a baby’s nervous system * What a CST session with a baby looks like * Why some babies relax almost instantly after treatment If you’re a new mom, expecting, or simply curious about holistic approaches to infant wellness, this is a fascinating conversation you won’t want to miss.

    Raising 7 Kids On A Tight Budget with My Mama-Beth

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode, I sit down with my mama, Beth—the woman who raised seven kids, stretched every dollar, and somehow made a full house feel like home. We talk about what it really looks like to raise a big family: saving money, hand-me-downs, grocery budgets, and the rhythms that kept our home running when life felt full and loud. Mama Beth shares the practical wisdom she learned along the way, the mistakes she made, and the things she’d do all over again. This conversation isn’t about perfection—it’s about resourcefulness, faith, grit, and love. Whether you’re raising one child or many, trying to live more intentionally, or just craving encouragement from a mom who’s been there, this episode feels like sitting at the kitchen table listening to stories you didn’t realize you needed. 🔗 Under the Sun Discount Codes: 🦠 ROGERSHOOD: UTSP10 🤰 GÜD PRENATALS: UTSP15 👶 EVERYLIFE: UTSP10 For more fun content you can also find us here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/underthesun...

    Why "Kid Food" is Ruining Your Childs Appetite

    Send us Fan Mail I’m sharing how I raised my daughter to *not* be a picky eater—from what her very first foods were, to the intentional (and sometimes controversial) “rules” I followed during her first two years. This isn’t a list of expert-backed guarantees or a one-size-fits-all method. It’s what worked in our home, through consistency, conviction, and a lot of trust in the process. We’ll talk about why the idea of “kid food” never sat right with me, how early exposure shaped my daughter’s palate, and why I believe raising a good eater doesn’t happen by accident. It’s not about perfection or control—it’s about leadership, boundaries, and modeling a healthy relationship with food from the very beginning. I’m sharing this not to shame or compare, but to offer perspective, encouragement, and a reminder that our choices at the table matter more than we’re often told. **In this episode, I share:** * What my daughter’s first foods actually were * The “rules” I followed for the first two years (and why I don’t regret them) * Why short-order cooking creates more problems than it solves * How taste preferences are formed early * Why intentional feeding is an act of care, not control If you’re pregnant, in the thick of feeding a baby or toddler, or simply questioning what you’ve been told about kids and food—this conversation is for you. 🔗 Under the Sun Discount Codes: 🦠 ROGERSHOOD: UTSP10 🤰 GÜD PRENATALS: UTSP15 👶 EVERYLIFE: UTSP10 For more fun content you can also find us here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/underthesun...

    How to Support Your Postpartum Mom Friend 🤱

    Send us Fan Mail Hey friends! As a freshly postpartum mama, I just want to thank y’all for giving me so much grace lately. I’m flying solo managing the podcast, wrangling two little ones, running our homestead, and keeping up with all the from-scratch cooking — it’s a lot! So while I share another one of our favorite past episodes this week, I’d be so grateful if you could help me out by sharing the podcast with a friend (or two!). It really helps keep us from getting lost out there in the big podcast world. Thank you so much for being here and for all your support — y’all mean the world to me! 💛 🔗 Under the Sun Discount Codes: 🦠 ROGERSHOOD: UTSP10 🤰 GÜD PRENATALS: UTSP15 👶 EVERYLIFE: UTSP10 For more fun content you can also find us here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/underthesun...

    What I Actually Used Postpartum (The First 30 Days With a Newborn)

    Send us Fan Mail There’s no shortage of postpartum “must-have” lists—but after walking through the first month with a newborn, I realized my list was surprisingly small. In this episode, I’m sharing what I actually used postpartum, what truly supported my healing, and what didn’t matter nearly as much as I thought it would. From simple physical supports to quiet comforts, this isn’t a long checklist or a shopping guide—it’s an honest look at what carried me through the early days. And here’s the truth: the most important thing I needed postpartum didn’t cost a thing. It was completely free—and it made the biggest difference. If you’re preparing for postpartum or currently in the thick of it, this episode is an invitation to slow down, simplify, and trust that you don’t need more trinkets & gadgets... just you and that sweet baby!  Birth Video!  https://youtu.be/oxfwP2hGrKE?si=1VvMgV_cBc6u3s2C Pain relief: https://amzn.to/4quBrez Watch: https://amzn.to/4a6Nxoo Down there spray: https://amzn.to/4a6Nxoo After pains tincture: https://amzn.to/4abrdsT Blankets: https://amzn.to/3ZbcIQJ Haaka: https://amzn.to/3ZbcIQJ Small haaka tubes: https://amzn.to/4qBzI7o Adult diapers: https://amzn.to/4qBzI7o ☀️ 🔗 Under the Sun Discount Codes: 🦠 ROGERSHOOD: UTSP10 🤰 GÜD PRENATALS: UTSP15 👶 EVERYLIFE: UTSP10 For more fun content you can also find us here: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/underthesun...
