43: "Oh Crap, Potty Training" with Author Jamie Glowacki

Mama Project Podcast | Pregnancy, Postpartum, Motherhood

Potty training is an important milestone in toddlerhood but is often stressful & misunderstood. You've probably heard things like "just wait until they're ready" and "boys are way harder to potty train than girls."

In this episode, I talk about all of this and more with Jamie Glowacki, the author of "Oh Crap, Potty Training" and "Oh Crap, I Have a Toddler."
