In this episode of "MomDoc Talk," Kristen Cook, a pediatrician and parenting expert, addresses common feelings of guilt that mothers experience. She discusses five specific guilt trips: not breastfeeding or stopping early, using a pacifier after age two, public meltdowns, not wanting to volunteer at school, and not being excited about after-school activities. Kristen emphasizes that mothers should prioritize their well-being and their children's happiness over societal expectations. She reassures mothers that their choices do not define their parenting success and encourages them to embrace their journey without guilt.
