Kristen Corrao thought she was having a baby. Turns out, she was having two. In this episode of Baby Steps, Kristen takes us back to the beginning — finding out she was pregnant, what those early weeks felt like, and the moment she learned she was carrying twins. The shock. The panic. The complete recalibration of every plan she'd made.
Kristen gets honest about what nobody really prepares you for: the postpartum hormones that hit like a wall, the emotional rollercoaster that comes after delivery when your body is trying to recover and your brain is telling you something's off. She talks about what postpartum really looked like for her — not the version you see on Instagram, but the raw, unfiltered reality of healing while keeping two newborns alive at the same time. She shares the advice she got that actually mattered, the stuff she read that helped versus the stuff that made her spiral, and the safety decisions that kept her up at night. But more than anything, Kristen talks about what it means to walk into motherhood thinking you have a plan — and having that plan doubled overnight. This one's for every parent who's ever felt like they were figuring it out in real time. Because with twins, that's not a phase — that's the whole experience
