Learning To Mom ™ Motherhood Podcast for First Time Moms, New Moms and Expecting Mothers

If you want to learn about all things motherhood from the Laila’s perspective of “is this the best thing for you and baby or just a cultural norm?” You will love this podcast. I started listening when a bunch of my friends became pregnant and I knew that I would start TTC in the next year or so and the info was super helpful!! I have never really been around babies so it gave me so much more confidence about different subjects. She picks subjects to interview about that I think are super helpful. She interviews a wide spectrum of people from crunchi/holistic to medical experts. I recommend stockpiling all the information into notes while you’re pregnant or while TTC so you have a well of info for pregnancy and birth. Thanks for what you do Laila! You’re such a light and your joy is contagious.

I listened to the first season when I was a new mom and I thought it was helpful however I think the topics going forward are a little bit out of my area of preference. I was at C-section mama, formula fed, daycare, no birth plan (go with the flow and what’s best) and working parent. I think this podcast really is catering more to breastfeeding, organic natural , anti vax, birth plans and stay at home mamas! I think it’s great for those kind of mamas but that’s just not me :)

I feel like the first season of this show was pretty great and it has slowly been getting worse. Some of the guests are still good, but others are just pushing their own agenda and have no evidence to back up their statements. Or maybe they do, but we don’t get to hear it because the host admits she cuts out 30-45 minutes of “some of the best parts” of each interview and puts it behind a paywall. She claims it’s for the algorithm, but I still think it’s all an odd thing to say. I know she needs to support herself, but blatantly cutting out the best or most important parts of the show are not the way to do that. I do think her interviewing style has improved over the seasons and I appreciate the wide range of guests. I’m hoping it starts to get better soon or I’ll just stop listening entirely.

laila does such a good job helping inform new moms of all the things. i am in my 2nd trimester of my first pregnancy & am SOOOO thankful i found her podcast at the beginning of my 1st trimester!

i have recently come across this podcast and honestly, it feels like an answer to prayer! Laila is relatable, has great hosts, and this podcast honestly offers a lot of wonderful advice. I’m grateful for it! Would recommend to any of my mom friends!! 🩷
