When I gave my 15 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: wife gave birth to our second child. I was in 16 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 1: a dark, dark state of mind, very st stout. Amy 17 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 1: had told me it was unreasonable stress, but it was 18 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: stressed nonetheless. Uh, and I'm in a similarly dark state 19 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: of mind today. So Amy telling you your stress was 20 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 1: unreasonable didn't make your stress go it. Actually it annoys me. Well, 21 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: there are some dark clouds outside, so maybe it's part 22 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,200 Speaker 1: of that. I don't know, it could be. Uh, what 23 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:28,319 Speaker 1: are you worried about? What's going on? So I'll tell you. Okay, 24 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 1: this past weekend, so our what what was our newborn 25 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:35,399 Speaker 1: back in October is now four and a half months? Um, 26 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: congratulations than four and a half months and you're still bitching. 27 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:44,720 Speaker 1: That is correct. And here's why, dmitri. So this weekend, Uh, 28 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: a week ago, our two year old two and a 29 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: half year old started puking. He had some stomach bug. Fine, 30 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: we it was a twenty four hour thing. Luckily he 31 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: got it through a system. All was okay. Three days later, 32 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: I myself got sick, then my wife got sick, and 33 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,240 Speaker 1: then this weekend. Uh, it all came to a head 34 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 1: when it had been five days of our four and 35 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: a half month year old who had been vomiting every 36 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,160 Speaker 1: single day for the past five days, and diarrhea. He 37 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: was refusing any liquids whatsoever, was not taking his bottle. 38 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 1: We were nervous because he was scary. He was dropping weight. 39 00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 1: He as a result of being severely dehydrated, he had 40 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: no circulation to his hands into his feet, so his 41 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 1: his hands and feet were both purple. Uh. And it 42 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: was getting stressful. So we took him to the pediatrician 43 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: and uh. The pediatrician looked at him and said, look, 44 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 1: you know, we need to get fluids in him, Try pedialyite, 45 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:47,400 Speaker 1: try rice water. I'm boiling rice and straining the rice kernels. 46 00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying everything. Pediatricians said, Ryan, You're being unreasonable. The 47 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: pediatrician actually was like, don't worry, guys. He's not severely 48 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: severely dehydrated yet. He's on the way. But if you 49 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: look in his eyeballs, they're still moist, so he's not 50 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,600 Speaker 1: it's not dire. And I'm like, well, I don't want 51 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 1: to get to the point where his eyeballs are dry. 52 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:13,519 Speaker 1: Stop it exactly. Um. So we on Saturday had to 53 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,400 Speaker 1: go to urgent care because he had taken in like 54 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: three ounces of liquid in the past forty eight hours, 55 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: which is really not good. That was affecting his sleep. 56 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 1: He was not sleeping whatsoever because he was starving, and 57 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: he wasn't taking fluids in because presumably his throat was 58 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,919 Speaker 1: hurting and he was puking anytime he took in any 59 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: liquor whatsoever. But what was it. Did he have a virus? 60 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Is that why he couldn't take into The pediatrician told 61 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 1: us there was a stomach bug going around l A 62 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: and it was such that because it was a virus, 63 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 1: it's not bacterial. You can't give an antibiotic. Uh, there 64 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 1: was nothing you could do. You had to just let 65 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: it run its course. And with the other kids that 66 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: had come in, it had lasted up till two weeks 67 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: of every day vomiting and diarrhea. Well, I will say 68 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 1: number one, that sounds horrible. Number two, I hope you 69 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: didn't bring any of that here. There was a lot 70 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: of Number two. Okay, Well, I don't mean that, I 71 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,200 Speaker 1: mean the germs. Um. I will say this. My family 72 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 1: got hit with the stomach bug. It was twenty four hours, 73 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: but it was my oldest she got it, then my 74 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: wife got it, then the next kid. So there was 75 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: about thirty six to forty eight hours where I was 76 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 1: the only one that didn't get it. Where I was 77 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: I think I threw up once, but it was non 78 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: stop and I slept on the living room floor because 79 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: it was the most central location so I could hear. 80 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,560 Speaker 1: I finally got the time of the sound down. Whereas 81 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: like they come and tell me, like Dad, I think 82 00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 1: I want to be saying who, And I was like, 83 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: don't tell me, just go straight to the bathroom. Believe me, 84 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: I'll figure it out. But so I slept on the 85 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 1: living room floor. And it was like that scene in 86 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: the Princess Bride when they're in that thing and they 87 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 1: hear the popping sound and they know that the flame's 88 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: gonna shoot up. I would hear one of the kids 89 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,920 Speaker 1: in the middle of the night, uh, and and I'd 90 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: run and I'd grab him and I bring in the 91 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: bathroom and I go and I laid back down after 92 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,720 Speaker 1: I got him all cleaned up, and i'd hear from 93 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: like the other directions ship and I have to run. 94 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: And it was thirty six. I was just NonStop puking. Well, 95 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: and you're the ld person in the out of the 96 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: whole family, yet you want to stay away from it 97 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: as far as you can because you know that you're 98 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 1: an next in line to get sick. That's the other 99 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 1: reason I slept in the living room. Flora, well, sometimes 100 00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: on the couch my daughter. My daughter had the same 101 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: not really the same thing as long, but it was 102 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,320 Speaker 1: like a twenty four hour flu. But basically to your point, 103 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: Dmitri she was sitting on. She was like, my stomach careers, 104 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,160 Speaker 1: my stomach is okay, Well let's you know. So we 105 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 1: take her to the bathroom kind of prepare and she's 106 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: like she sits down on the toilet and then it 107 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: starts barfing down on this floor and I'm like, what 108 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: the hell are you doing? Like turn around like and 109 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 1: then it's like, you know, everyone's screaming, and I don't 110 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: feel bad for her and how old is the daughter? That? Yeah? 111 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: And so my what is challenging for me is like eleven, 112 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: you can have you can communicate with her first and foremost, 113 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: but like that didn't work though, But you're not worried 114 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,360 Speaker 1: about he doesn't talk to women so well. But but 115 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: you're not fearing that she's going to die. And when 116 00:06:01,160 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 1: when you have a four month old like that is 117 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: a real genuine thought that we're having, which is like 118 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: he's not taking in any fluids. You go to urgent 119 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: care over the weekend and they're looking at you saying, 120 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,680 Speaker 1: if you don't get something down impedially or whatever, which 121 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: we had tried at that point for seventy two hours 122 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: to no avail. She's saying, he's going to need to 123 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: go to the e er and get an IVY and 124 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 1: with a four month old, it's going to take seven 125 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 1: pricks minimum to find a vein which is going to 126 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: destroy his Okay, hold on, so that's not now we're 127 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,359 Speaker 1: getting to Ryan. That's well, no, that's not what they 128 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:38,160 Speaker 1: said to you. No, with that tone and those statistics, 129 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: that's you googling ship. No, that is exactly what she said. 130 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:42,920 Speaker 1: They so they said, and by the way, this is 131 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:46,240 Speaker 1: gonna take seven stabs in your son's arms. She didn't 132 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: say it in that aggressive tone. She said, look, you 133 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: need to you need to just keep trying to force fluids. 134 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:55,600 Speaker 1: I cannot impress upon but it was the drama after this. 135 00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:57,400 Speaker 1: Now I'm going back to when you fake your own 136 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: death with your doctor. This is that Ryan's coming out. 137 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: She said, I can tell you you need to get 138 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 1: fluids down because if you don't, the next step is 139 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: going to the emergency room. And what's going to happen 140 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: there is the only thing they can do for this, 141 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,000 Speaker 1: because he's dehydrated and it's a virus, is they need 142 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: to get fluids in him. The only way they'll do 143 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: that is through an IVY. Is a wonderful story, but 144 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: is a kid, Okay, he yeah, I mean it's been 145 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 1: seven days. Neither of us have been sleeping like he's 146 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 1: he's now taking in fluids as of yesterday. He's gotta 147 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: be here. He's gotta be better because you're standing here 148 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: holding a microphone. So I imagine if he wasn't, he 149 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,960 Speaker 1: has gotten better as it lets you sticks something up 150 00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: on the web, you know what where the sun don't 151 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:38,440 Speaker 1: shut off for a four month old. But we need 152 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: to get to the point of it all?

It's such an easy 197 00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,719 Speaker 1: especially now that we're limiting ones to those that have 198 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 1: no kids. Continue with your stories so we can try 199 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 1: to actually help you instead of just being like you're 200 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: punching backs.

Well, sometimes the baby like 235 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 1: to lay back reclined. Listen, here's the deal. If this 236 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: was your first kid, I would give you. I would 237 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: give you some room for for acting like this.

You aren't willing to give up everything 332 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: that you need to make your life special for like 333 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 1: you you want everything to just work together, and it 334 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 1: just doesn't you know what, Maybe you have to go 335 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 1: to a different pool where there's other kids screaming and playing. 336 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 1: Maybe you can't have a lobster rule for lunch, like 337 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 1: you gotta give shut up, man, don't mess with my 338 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: lobster role to Maitri. Uh So, like again, you just 339 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: fast forward throughout the day where you're trying to time naps. Okay, 340 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 1: he's gonna go down at two. I can wear him 341 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: on my chest and the baby borna two when we 342 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 1: walk to a winery. And then but when we get there, 343 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 1: he's gonna need to be fed. So like you're logistically 344 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 1: planning all those things, and then you're you're like, okay, 345 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: he's gonna go down at six thirties, so we can 346 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: get room service. Call that in a five. And then 347 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: you're eating right when he goes down, and you just 348 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 1: scarf your food down, and you're like, we look at 349 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,479 Speaker 1: each other like do we want to watch something right now? 350 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,679 Speaker 1: Like no, because we're gonna have at four am tomorrow, 351 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 1: Like it's seven now, let's just go to bed, Like 352 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,520 Speaker 1: that's the truth. Honestly, I see what you're saying. But 353 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: here here's what I think I think you in your mind, 354 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: identify all the things that normally make you happy, right 355 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 1: the lobster roll, they DoPT pool, to this that dinner 356 00:18:17,080 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: ordered it five. All this stuff makes you happy. The 357 00:18:19,720 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: problem is you're trying to fit it into a space 358 00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,800 Speaker 1: that doesn't fit it anymore. So you're actually causing yourself 359 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: so much anxiety and so much stress. I get that 360 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: you like all these things, but I think you'd be 361 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,800 Speaker 1: happier if you some of them, brought some of them 362 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: down and fit them into what works for you. Now. Maybe, 363 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: like I said, maybe don't go to the adult pool 364 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 1: with a baby. You probably were clenched for he wound 365 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: I've ever. But the other thing I will say in 366 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: Ryan's defense, like or I don't know if it's an 367 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:51,879 Speaker 1: inc but you're in a storm of your life right now. 368 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 1: You have a two and a half year old or 369 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:54,920 Speaker 1: three and a half year old and a four months 370 00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: and it's like, I'm surprised you're even going on a 371 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 1: two day or one night or two night or like 372 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 1: that's buckled downtime. I don't even know what you probably 373 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 1: don't even know what time it is during the day. 374 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: You know, it's like life sucks, and it's like it's 375 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: hard in your spot to recognize that because you want 376 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 1: to have a lobster role and you want to sit 377 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 1: by the little pool. So you're complaining and you're miserable 378 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 1: while you're in that space. But on the other hand, 379 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 1: you're in that space and you should just be accepted 380 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: of it. It is.

Uh, 493 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: And there was no poop that came out on the table, 494 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 1: but the placenta when it came out, I will never 495 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 1: forget it right in life. It was like a jelly fish. See. 496 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,199 Speaker 1: It was massive and like purple and red and they 497 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: catch it like a garbage bag and it's like what 498 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 1: it was like moving like it was alive or something. 499 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: And I was like I had never seen anything in 500 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: my life like that. It was horrifying. It was like 501 00:25:12,160 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 1: you think it was your kid At first, No, no, no, 502 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: the kid came out already. But I thought it was 503 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: like the kid had a water bed or something in 504 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 1: there and they were getting rid of it. It was 505 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 1: it was weird, man. And then I'm thinking, like, people 506 00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 1: make pills out of this and they bury it, they 507 00:25:25,119 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: cook it. I was like, take it away. So on 508 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:32,240 Speaker 1: that note, a lot of men, this is real faint 509 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 1: or vomit during the birth. It is actually common. I 510 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: know a story of a guy who really he started 511 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,479 Speaker 1: to get tunnel vision and started passing out and throwing up. 512 00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 1: Do you do you have anybody like that? I didn't 513 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,399 Speaker 1: throw up. But on the second from from my second kid, um, 514 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 1: I hadn't eaten, so I got ridiculed for eating the 515 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: first time, even though they said the men have to 516 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: keep their strength up. So the second kid, I didn't eat. 517 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 1: And then when she was born, she was the only 518 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:01,480 Speaker 1: one that we didn't find out whether she was a 519 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,959 Speaker 1: boy or a girl. Um, so there was a lot 520 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: happening at that moment, and they were like, it's a girl. 521 00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: And then I got a little woozy and I sat 522 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 1: down for a second. They were like, do you want 523 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 1: to cut the cord? And I was like sure, and 524 00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:13,560 Speaker 1: I stood up and I was like, whoa. My knee 525 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 1: started buckle. So they sat me back down and then 526 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: it was fine. But the some might think this was 527 00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:23,199 Speaker 1: an embarrassing moment. A few minutes later, you know how 528 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:24,880 Speaker 1: they give um. I don't know if you know this, Emily, 529 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,240 Speaker 1: but after you have the baby, they're gonna give you 530 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: like a nice cocktail, like a it's like a juice 531 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: like it's like a long island nice tea. It's like 532 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 1: a long island to say, without the alcohol, it's just 533 00:26:33,880 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of juices to really give your sugar back. 534 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: So I remember after my daughter, my second daughter was born, 535 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,399 Speaker 1: after all that happened, I looked over. They had handed 536 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 1: me one of these drinks with the bend destraw and 537 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: I look over. My wife has one and she's just 538 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 1: glaring at me, like we both have the recovery cocktail, 539 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: and she's like, what is wrong with your an embarrassment 540 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: to this family? So yeah, um, that's helpful. I feel 541 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 1: like my husband might pass out, so embracing myself, they'll 542 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: doesn't he want to have a week's stomach or does 543 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: he Like, I don't think he's prepared for what he's 544 00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: about to see. We took a birthing class and he 545 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,480 Speaker 1: was more queasy than I was. Yeah, like we were 546 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: both in the corner just kind of fidgeting, but he 547 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,080 Speaker 1: was really I was super nervous. My wife had a 548 00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:17,200 Speaker 1: C section and I was in like another little separate 549 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: room before they let me go into the clean room 550 00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:21,719 Speaker 1: or the operating room. And I was just in there 551 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: and I was just like sweating, and I was like 552 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: breathing hard, you know, like deep breaths, just I could 553 00:27:26,359 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 1: go in and be regular. And I went and sat down, 554 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 1: and I was like, she's like crying and all, you know, 555 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 1: drugged up from the medicine. And I was just like, 556 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: holy what did I walk into here? You know?

And 561 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: I was like sure, So I popped up and I 562 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,399 Speaker 1: looked down and it was just like orange, like just 563 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: a giant cut orange blood like would you want to? 564 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: I thought, that's the point that and then no, because 565 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: they were they were going to pull the baby out. 566 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 1: So that's like, we're about to pull her.

One thing I remember with my wife 586 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 1: is like I think we were trying to go like 587 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: all natural, and then all of a sudden she was 588 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 1: past her do date. I think it was my son 589 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:19,200 Speaker 1: was supposed to be born on April twenty, but he 590 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 1: ended up being born on April or May one. Um. 591 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: But she never thought in her mind about having a 592 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 1: C section, like that was never a question. And then 593 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden it was like getting later and later, 594 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: and then finally we went in for the last checkup 595 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 1: on a Friday and they're like Monday morning, eight am, 596 00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,120 Speaker 1: come on in doing a C section, and it was 597 00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 1: like whoa. And it was actually, in all honesty, we 598 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: really enjoyed it because we had our second child the 599 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: same way. But we liked it because it was like 600 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: we knew when we there was we I guess I 601 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:49,520 Speaker 1: could say we didn't get to experience that like, oh 602 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,720 Speaker 1: my water broke, I'm at the supermo. How do you 603 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: get the bag? You know, the movie stuff, But um, 604 00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 1: we already had everything ready to go.

So I'm hoping I make it that 610 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: long because then I know I can get my nails done, 611 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: I can get a blow out and look good and 612 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: be prepared.

I 658 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: don't know if you've heard the first part of this show. Okay, 659 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 1: he was talking about all his vacation that he and 660 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: his wife went away with the baby and the and 661 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 1: the point was my point that I was trying to 662 00:32:52,400 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: tell him, was stop stressing about everything. It's better if 663 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: it happens now, and if it doesn't happen, then you 664 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 1: canna think, oh my god, it's not happen in the morning. 665 00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 1: That guy Ryan told me it's better in the morning, 666 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,400 Speaker 1: because don't worried. It's gonna be fine. It's gonna be great. 667 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:06,720 Speaker 1: So yes, maybe morning is great. Just listen, go in 668 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 1: have the baby. If it happens at night, it happens 669 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: a night, it's going to be great. You're going to 670 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: be so agostatic it's it's amazing, Like, yeah, at the 671 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 1: end of the day, I won't really know the difference, 672 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,920 Speaker 1: but still leading up to it, it's the anticipation. I'm 673 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: kinrying like out, what else is on your mind? What 674 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 1: are you what else are you worried about? Okay, when 675 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:26,720 Speaker 1: when we get home and I'm going to breastfeed, but 676 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: I don't want to do it like I can pump 677 00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 1: and have my husband do a bottle. How do you 678 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: guys feel about getting up at night? Because I'm afraid 679 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,520 Speaker 1: that the argument is, well, I have to work tomorrow, 680 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: you don't can you do all the nighttime feedings? Which 681 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: I think is sort of crap because I will be 682 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: working the next day to just not at an office, 683 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 1: you know, like I'm on maternity leave. But I feel 684 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:55,080 Speaker 1: like you're working with I mean, yeah, no. I when 685 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 1: my brother when we had our when we started having kids, 686 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,920 Speaker 1: my brother give me some advice and he said, listen, 687 00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:04,040 Speaker 1: enjoy that. So when she's breastfeeding and that's all that 688 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 1: she's doing, enjoy that time because once it shifts to 689 00:34:08,239 --> 00:34:09,960 Speaker 1: a bottle, then you're on the clock, and you're on 690 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:11,959 Speaker 1: the clock whenever she needs you to be on the clock. 691 00:34:12,200 --> 00:34:14,600 Speaker 1: If there's a bottle, then you'll So I remember with 692 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,880 Speaker 1: the first kid, middle of the night, she'd get up 693 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 1: and I get up and I, you know, walk around 694 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: the bed and pick up the baby and hand it 695 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 1: and the baby tour and stuff because he had nothing 696 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,799 Speaker 1: else going on. But when there's at to Ryan's point, 697 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,120 Speaker 1: when there's another kid in the house. So when the 698 00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,719 Speaker 1: second kid was around, when she came around, it was like, 699 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,399 Speaker 1: all right, well, I'm not gonna get up because I'm 700 00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: gonna have to be fresh in the morning. So you 701 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: know you're gonna shift that around. But yes, if you 702 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: have if you're to the point we're using bottles and 703 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,000 Speaker 1: he can feed the baby, then yes, and he and 704 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 1: I think the other thing is I don't get it 705 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: never felt as programmed where you're like, I'm going to 706 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: breastfeed and then all of a sudden, you like turn 707 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,160 Speaker 1: around and you pivot to the pump machine and you're 708 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 1: you got a stockpile of milk, right Like, it took 709 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,360 Speaker 1: my wife a while to get the milk in and 710 00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: so we had to actually use some other formula and 711 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 1: then until that got done, and then and it was breastfeeding, 712 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:02,920 Speaker 1: and then we finally got to the point where there 713 00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: was enough where we could pump and store some and 714 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 1: then I was on the night feeding. But like you think, like, okay, boom, 715 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: this is how it's gonna work one, two, three, It 716 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:15,440 Speaker 1: doesn't like naturally like it's just it's different. Yeah to that, 717 00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: you just got to kind of play the game and 718 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,200 Speaker 1: see how it goes. I think what you find out 719 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:22,720 Speaker 1: is that you finish breastfeeding and then you're like, Okay, 720 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: now I'm gonna pump and bank that. But you're like 721 00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,400 Speaker 1: that's gonna take you another thirty minutes to pump a 722 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 1: bottle's worth when you just want to go to sleep. 723 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: So you're like you get to the point in I 724 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,600 Speaker 1: don't know how far in where you're like, okay, now 725 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: is when I have the bandwidth to like sacrifice sleep 726 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 1: for pumping. But it's a it's basically just my wife 727 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: felt like she was a cow where she's like, I'm 728 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: just I go from breastfeeding to them pumping, and then 729 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 1: by the time I finished pumping, it's time to breastfeed again. 730 00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,479 Speaker 1: And it's a never ending vicious site. And it also 731 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,399 Speaker 1: depends on how much the baby is eating, because if 732 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,319 Speaker 1: you if you breastfeed and then you pump, you're gonna 733 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 1: be like, well, all of a sudden, the babies, you know, 734 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:05,960 Speaker 1: wants to eat again, and you're like, well, I don't 735 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: have anymore because I fed and pumped. So then you know, 736 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:10,440 Speaker 1: your husband goes to give the baby the bottle and 737 00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: you're like, no, I pumped that bottle so I could 738 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 1: go out to lunch with my friends later. That's my 739 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 1: stowaway bottle. So then you start to be like no, no, 740 00:36:16,920 --> 00:36:19,920 Speaker 1: So it's eventually the baby's gonna stop eating so much 741 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: and you'll be able to stockpile some but until that 742 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 1: point then it's going to be mathematical, mathematical. And to 743 00:36:28,840 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: that end, I would say the benefit to the bottle 744 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,799 Speaker 1: feed as opposed to the breastfeed is that you can 745 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: actually measure the volume intake. Like I became obsessed with like, okay, 746 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 1: how many ounces do they need to be taking in? 747 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,880 Speaker 1: When you have a bottle, you can see there are 748 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:47,160 Speaker 1: three or four ounces in this bottle, whereas with your 749 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 1: breast you're like, okay, they were on for ten minutes 750 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: on each nipple, how much have they taken? I have 751 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 1: no idea, Like sometimes they're just there. I don't know 752 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: what you call like sucking without taking it in, and 753 00:36:58,719 --> 00:37:01,080 Speaker 1: it's it's they're not getting the nutrients they need and 754 00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:05,959 Speaker 1: you never really know. It's um. When did you start 755 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: to have sex again? When did you want to and 756 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:13,239 Speaker 1: when was appropriate for your wife? Oh? Yes, Tori producer, Tori. 757 00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: When did you at what point of pregnancy do you 758 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:20,720 Speaker 1: start feeling weird having sex with your pregnant wife? Fellas, 759 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 1: it's it starts off once she's showing, it starts off. 760 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,400 Speaker 1: You start you get that thought of, well, there's a 761 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:30,839 Speaker 1: kid in there, I can't be in there as well. 762 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,359 Speaker 1: I think it's hot, no, but I think it's total 763 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:36,600 Speaker 1: But then it becomes that. But in the beginning you're 764 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 1: like the old the old joke of I don't want 765 00:37:39,680 --> 00:37:41,279 Speaker 1: to like poke it in the head or anything. So 766 00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:43,919 Speaker 1: in the beginning it's weird. But then you get past 767 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: that and you and then it does become kind of hot. 768 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 1: It becomes hot, and I also feel like it. It's 769 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 1: not where you're like, do you stop wanting to have sex? 770 00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,480 Speaker 1: I think you always wanting to have sex. I mean, 771 00:37:54,560 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 1: at least I did. And it was like more her 772 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:01,320 Speaker 1: being like okay, like I can't even put my shoes on, 773 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:04,680 Speaker 1: Like the last thing I'm doing is taking my clothes 774 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,439 Speaker 1: off and having sex. Even though you're like, well, honey, 775 00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:09,839 Speaker 1: you look great. I love it. You know. You don't 776 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: try to sell say anything to make her happy. It's 777 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:16,040 Speaker 1: just like her comfort level. It's less of like us 778 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 1: being like, no, I don't want to have sex because 779 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 1: she's probably and that was the same with me. It's 780 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 1: like she didn't feel great starting at a certain point 781 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: where it's like I'm not going to force the issue, 782 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,919 Speaker 1: like she doesn't feel good and she does not want 783 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: to have sex. So and did you have any weird 784 00:38:30,160 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 1: like things after the baby was born about having sex again, 785 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: like my kid came out of there and now I'm 786 00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:41,960 Speaker 1: gonna like put this thing in there. It all depends 787 00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,840 Speaker 1: on where it does. It does depend on where you 788 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,240 Speaker 1: were standing during the delivery that I think that alters 789 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: the time for sure. Um yeah, but I think by 790 00:38:50,680 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 1: the time she's ready to have sex again, I think 791 00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: you're past anything that any thoughts that you've had that 792 00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,040 Speaker 1: made you hesitant. So really it ends up being on 793 00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 1: her clock. I think it's on our clock. And we're 794 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 1: dumb man, and were you just want to have sex 795 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: and I mean, we don't really care when and what 796 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,440 Speaker 1: it looked like. We just want to have sex. So 797 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: that's my answer. What about afterwards though, Like I feel 798 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: like on the way up, you're you're having you have 799 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 1: a belly, and you're sort of supposed to so it's okay. 800 00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 1: But after I have the baby and I'm like deflating, 801 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm not going to feel hot or I don't. But 802 00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:27,120 Speaker 1: that's why we said it's completely on her timetable, because 803 00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna want to have sex for 804 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,680 Speaker 1: a little while. You can't for a while. But I'm 805 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:34,480 Speaker 1: saying after that point, I'm not going to be back 806 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: in like tip top shape. But I don't know how 807 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:40,279 Speaker 1: I'm gonna feel about that is going to be closed. Well, 808 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:43,719 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to have closed. You can always put 809 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: the drapes up. Listen. If having sex with was was 810 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,400 Speaker 1: based on when people are in tip top shape, the 811 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:52,239 Speaker 1: three of us would never have sex. I mean, look 812 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,239 Speaker 1: at us. Such a good point, Dmitri, that is pretty good. God, 813 00:39:56,400 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 1: as a co host, you're crushing it. Thanks buddy, It's 814 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:03,359 Speaker 1: just an honor to be here. Anything else in your mind, 815 00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,759 Speaker 1: Emily can ask one more? I do Okay, I said, 816 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:09,800 Speaker 1: I have my husband's turning forty two months after I 817 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:12,440 Speaker 1: give birth, and he's like a big birthday guy. And 818 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:14,200 Speaker 1: I've sort of set the table. Are you sure your 819 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:22,879 Speaker 1: husband's that Ryan? That is very true. So I've sort 820 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,480 Speaker 1: of planned the seed, like, if you want to do something, 821 00:40:26,160 --> 00:40:28,480 Speaker 1: you have to let me know now, because once the 822 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,800 Speaker 1: baby comes, who knows. You're not gonna be planning a 823 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,040 Speaker 1: boat cruise around the harbor with a new ones to 824 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 1: go to Pebble Beach and leave me with a two 825 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 1: month old. And I don't think that that's very cool. 826 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,520 Speaker 1: He wants to have a guys guy. I think you 827 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:43,279 Speaker 1: might be all right with like get out of here 828 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: and have your mom come down. No, I actually think 829 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 1: he's got two two bachelor parties leading up to that. 830 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,359 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think at two months, you're two 831 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:53,319 Speaker 1: months old, you're going to be like, get out of here, 832 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,760 Speaker 1: your mom's gonna come, and you're just gonna my my question. 833 00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:58,960 Speaker 1: Was his mindset going to shift because right now it's 834 00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,800 Speaker 1: all about his birthday being the best birthday of his life. 835 00:41:04,239 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: I think Amy's wrong in that point. I think yes, 836 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,919 Speaker 1: when he sees the baby and the whether a girl 837 00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:12,160 Speaker 1: or what. He's going to be so ecstatic. He's gonna 838 00:41:12,200 --> 00:41:14,680 Speaker 1: want to be with the baby. You and I do 839 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,600 Speaker 1: remember going to work and then like texting my wife 840 00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: and be like, what's she doing now? Like the baby. 841 00:41:20,440 --> 00:41:22,480 Speaker 1: So he will be a little more tached. He'll still 842 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,560 Speaker 1: want his birthday. But I agree with Amy, I think 843 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 1: you might be better off to be like, listen, the 844 00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: bachelor party. Sorry, he's got to cut out something. Maybe 845 00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: the Bachelor parties that. I can't weigh in on that 846 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 1: because that seems a little too much. But if if 847 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:36,080 Speaker 1: he wants to go have a forty at Pebble Beach, 848 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,120 Speaker 1: I honestly think you'd be like, get the hell out 849 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 1: of here. It's me and the baby. Maybe you have 850 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:45,399 Speaker 1: a relative come or friend. I can't. But then at 851 00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 1: two months, did you hear Ryan's on a road trip 852 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,960 Speaker 1: at two months or a boat trip, a road trip? 853 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:56,480 Speaker 1: Road trip? You Sorry, I've been blacking out most of 854 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: the times you talk because it's so inane and ridiculous. 855 00:42:00,280 --> 00:42:04,040 Speaker 1: That's who's been leaving those comments. So no, at two months, 856 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: like you, you are in the zone where you you 857 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 1: have at that point developed a system that Okay, the 858 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: baby eats x number of ours, like you're feeding on 859 00:42:13,640 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: a clock, you're sleeping on a clock, and getting them 860 00:42:17,160 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 1: on the road to do that. You're trying to get 861 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:22,919 Speaker 1: on that clock. And you're not even on that clock. 862 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:25,239 Speaker 1: You're too after two months now you're in you don't 863 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 1: even know what day it is, you don't even know 864 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:29,560 Speaker 1: what's going And you don't want to go to Pebble 865 00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: Beach at two months. No, you don't, honestly, and this 866 00:42:33,680 --> 00:42:36,160 Speaker 1: is not us Like doing your husband a solid send 867 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:38,480 Speaker 1: you don't have to plan a forty I send him 868 00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,800 Speaker 1: away for the weekend. By the way, at two months, 869 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: you don't want the kid around a bunch of other 870 00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 1: people on a road trip, like you're kind of trying 871 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 1: to insulate them from the outside world. Yeah, you're gonna 872 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: get home. You're not going to Pebble Beach to have 873 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: scones and sit around. So you're not gonna bring a baby. 874 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 1: But if I were, if I were him, and I 875 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:59,080 Speaker 1: feel as if in many ways I am him. Uh, 876 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 1: we're all of question the the weighing it out going 877 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:05,440 Speaker 1: to Pebble Beach, Like the guilt when I was there 878 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,960 Speaker 1: would be so crippling that it would not be enjoyable. 879 00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 1: I would be there and and you have given me 880 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 1: permission to be there, and I'd be like just feeling 881 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 1: horrible that you're at home alone with the baby, and 882 00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: maybe your mom flew in, but like I would have 883 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 1: to be chicked. I'd call you and tell you it 884 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:26,120 Speaker 1: would just be miserable. Don't do it. Don't do it alone. Yeah, 885 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean that's a huge ya. Don't bring somebody else 886 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: in for sure, But do this. It's a bankable moment. 887 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:32,759 Speaker 1: He's gonna feel guilty. You're gonna, I mean, this is 888 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: his forty birthday. Is gonna be a great present for you. 889 00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 1: Welcome back to how men think we are all against Ryan, 890 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,680 Speaker 1: and we have Christie here to be against me as well. 891 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,439 Speaker 1: She is our resident dietitian.

Thank you. 896 00:44:08,560 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 1: We're not all against you. Yeah, and also against you 897 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,719 Speaker 1: because of that, maybe don't introduce the guests with such snark. No, 898 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 1: thanks for the tip. I'll remember that, so Christie helped I. 899 00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:24,960 Speaker 1: I would say I have a lot of issues. I 900 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 1: think maybe that's an understatement, but one of the things 901 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 1: recently that I'm experiencing is like, we have two kids, Uh, 902 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 1: like you am the weekends For me, I go through 903 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: the entire work week, busy week, busy week. The weekends 904 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,719 Speaker 1: are supposed to be, in my mind, the time to 905 00:44:40,840 --> 00:44:45,560 Speaker 1: recharge and go into Monday feeling good. I am more 906 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:50,040 Speaker 1: exhausted by Sunday night than I am. Like it's there's 907 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:54,879 Speaker 1: no recharging whatsoever because it's full on all weekend long, 908 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 1: and I don't know how to solve for that. So 909 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:00,560 Speaker 1: is it sports? That's no. We have a two and 910 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 1: a half year old and a four and a half 911 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 1: month old, so he's basically like my wife has been 912 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 1: taking the four and a half month old and like 913 00:45:12,160 --> 00:45:14,960 Speaker 1: at all feed or two and a half year old 914 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:17,479 Speaker 1: at seven in the morning. He gets up at six 915 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: and I'll take him out to the park at like eight, 916 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: and then I'm out till eleven thirty to get him 917 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:29,640 Speaker 1: home to get lunch ready for I think you said 918 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:31,719 Speaker 1: it a couple episodes ago or a while ago. The 919 00:45:31,760 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 1: best way you put it was I bring the older 920 00:45:33,880 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 1: kid to the park and I run him like a dog, 921 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: And all I think is, I can't wait till he 922 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,680 Speaker 1: passes out for a nap, because then I'm getting all 923 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 1: I am doing. I live my life looking at the 924 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 1: clock saying, okay, how many hours till nap? Then it's nap. 925 00:45:46,840 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 1: Then you're like, how long is he going to sleep 926 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 1: for this nap? Then he wakes up from that? How 927 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 1: many hours until we get through dinner and bath and 928 00:45:55,480 --> 00:45:58,640 Speaker 1: then get to put him down? Well, first of all, 929 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:01,440 Speaker 1: you're not alone. I think every parent feels that exact 930 00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:03,279 Speaker 1: same way. But here's what I would suggest. Do you 931 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 1: when he naps? What do you do? I try to 932 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:09,520 Speaker 1: get his dinner, Like I'm trying to get ahead of 933 00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:12,719 Speaker 1: the curve to get his dinner ready so that when 934 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,760 Speaker 1: he's awake and he's wanting to do go scooter around 935 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 1: the block and play te ball in the front yard, 936 00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,480 Speaker 1: Like I don't have time to make his dinner. So 937 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 1: I'm doing that, trying to help get bottles ready for 938 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 1: with my wife for the four and a half month old, 939 00:46:27,440 --> 00:46:29,400 Speaker 1: trying to like pick up all the toys that he 940 00:46:30,239 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: left all around the house during the time that he 941 00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:34,960 Speaker 1: was awake pre nap like there's a laundry list of 942 00:46:35,000 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 1: things trying to do laundry. By the way, when you 943 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,879 Speaker 1: have a kid that still naps, you gotta you gotta 944 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:43,200 Speaker 1: nap because eventually that'll stop it, or just rest like 945 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:45,840 Speaker 1: so you're getting ahead, but then all you're doing is 946 00:46:45,880 --> 00:46:47,840 Speaker 1: free got more time to do other stuff. I'll tell you. 947 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 1: Let me tell you what. He doesn't have to go 948 00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: around the block all the time. Throw him a toy 949 00:46:51,160 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 1: in the living room and make a bottle. Here's what 950 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 1: I do the most of the time. I don't take 951 00:46:54,160 --> 00:46:56,799 Speaker 1: a nap because my wife I'm trying to give her. 952 00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,799 Speaker 1: I'm trying to give her some sanity, and she will 953 00:47:00,840 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 1: go to yoga. The one thing she gets to do 954 00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:05,080 Speaker 1: all day on the weekend, on the Saturday and Sunday 955 00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: is at one o'clock go to yoga. She does it 956 00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 1: at one o'clock to help me. Because I've said, having 957 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:14,000 Speaker 1: both kids at the same time, I want to kill myself. 958 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,239 Speaker 1: I think I'm going to have a panic attack. So 959 00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 1: when the two and a half year old goes down 960 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: for his nap, I can just have the four and 961 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 1: a half month old. When she goes to yoga, and 962 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:26,600 Speaker 1: I'll strap him to my chest and literally pace up 963 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 1: and down my walkway outside because when he's crying, I 964 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 1: don't want him to wake up, the two and a 965 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:35,359 Speaker 1: half year old to screw my entire freaking day. Wow, 966 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 1: that's loaded. Um, I kind of agree. I Mean, the 967 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:40,800 Speaker 1: bottom line is I hear what you're saying, and I 968 00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,160 Speaker 1: think it's awesome. What a great husband that you're trying 969 00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: to relieve your wife of. You know, give her a break, 970 00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: But you also need that for your sanity. You're you're 971 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:51,800 Speaker 1: gonna be a better dad, in a way, better husband. 972 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 1: So somehow, some way, I mean, I can start way 973 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:59,080 Speaker 1: early and go to a meditation point. But there's something 974 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: you have to be able to do for yourself to 975 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,560 Speaker 1: kind of decompress, Like you have to be able to 976 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 1: because that what you just described sounds like hell. And 977 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:09,920 Speaker 1: if that's your weekend, every weekend, you're not gonna be 978 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 1: You're going to fall apart. Here's the challenge. It's one 979 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 1: of the other. So it's like, Okay, take a nap. Well, 980 00:48:17,160 --> 00:48:18,840 Speaker 1: I want to also, so my wife will give me 981 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 1: the same time she goes to yoga, Like she'll give 982 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,319 Speaker 1: me in the morning time an hour to go work out, 983 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 1: and I'll choose my time to work out, which is 984 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,960 Speaker 1: also good for my sanity, and I'd rather do that 985 00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 1: than take a nap. So it's one or the other. 986 00:48:32,840 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 1: So it's a trade of like, what are you gonna choose. 987 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 1: I'll choose to work out, otherwise I'm gonna be more 988 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 1: miserable than if I don't take a nap. Do you 989 00:48:40,600 --> 00:48:45,719 Speaker 1: take any deep breaths during the day. I know it 990 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:49,960 Speaker 1: sounds like I'm being sarcastic, but to be honest, and 991 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:53,480 Speaker 1: I'm not being a dick. You sound so wounded, like 992 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 1: t take a deep breath? Man Like you're like, You're like, 993 00:48:56,320 --> 00:48:58,080 Speaker 1: if I don't do this one thing, what I'm supposed 994 00:48:58,080 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 1: to do with this whole thing is going to fall apart. 995 00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:02,399 Speaker 1: And it's not true. Agree, Christie, What were you asking 996 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,360 Speaker 1: box breathing? Do you know what box breathing is? You 997 00:49:04,360 --> 00:49:07,839 Speaker 1: should try this? That was we did that during four play. 998 00:49:08,000 --> 00:49:11,040 Speaker 1: That's how we got you stick your stick your head 999 00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,960 Speaker 1: out the bag. My wife says, I'm a great box 1000 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:20,440 Speaker 1: by okay, one, probably not true to that's not what 1001 00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 1: we're talking about. Then for five, hold for six and 1002 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:29,319 Speaker 1: it's one one thousand two, one thousand three, and then 1003 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,360 Speaker 1: you breathe out slowly for eight. Maybe not into the 1004 00:49:33,440 --> 00:49:37,040 Speaker 1: mic five six eight is that? But you you have 1005 00:49:37,239 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 1: to find a way. I agree with you. You're you're 1006 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:44,319 Speaker 1: just running completely on not enough energy, that's for sure. 1007 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,520 Speaker 1: But it's just it's constant. So, I mean, there's not 1008 00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,680 Speaker 1: a lot of solutions. My biggest solution is going to 1009 00:49:49,760 --> 00:49:53,600 Speaker 1: be got to find time to just decompress during the day, 1010 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 1: like you are with the kids, even if you have 1011 00:49:56,719 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 1: to set them down like they're the parent guilt thing 1012 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 1: of giving them a toy and be like, hey, I'm 1013 00:50:01,560 --> 00:50:03,880 Speaker 1: gonna just be over here. You don't have to interact 1014 00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 1: with them all the time, like even those little bouncy things. 1015 00:50:06,680 --> 00:50:08,120 Speaker 1: Do you have that for the four month old? Do 1016 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:10,920 Speaker 1: you have any like a little seat that he can 1017 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,960 Speaker 1: just chill in for a bit. Yes, okay, But I 1018 00:50:14,080 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: was ridiculed for bringing that to our weekend trip away, 1019 00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,080 Speaker 1: being told I brought all these unnecessary things, but thank 1020 00:50:20,120 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: you for bringing that up. That's the most important thing 1021 00:50:22,719 --> 00:50:25,440 Speaker 1: you could ever bring with you. Ridiculed your wife, know 1022 00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 1: all you morons told me that I brought too much 1023 00:50:27,719 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: in the car and I didn't need any of you 1024 00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:32,000 Speaker 1: know that you bring. We're talking about bringing two strollers 1025 00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,279 Speaker 1: and a pack and playing a back and the stand up. 1026 00:50:34,400 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 1: The standy thing that Christie is saying is, let's let's 1027 00:50:38,040 --> 00:50:40,880 Speaker 1: clarify the standing thing that twirls around, that huge plastic thing. 1028 00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,440 Speaker 1: You don't need to bring out your vacations if it's 1029 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,680 Speaker 1: a little tiny bucket thing that you you move with 1030 00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:50,799 Speaker 1: your foot while you're it's. Yeah, you pack like your 1031 00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,839 Speaker 1: favorite china that you like to eat, your lobster, roll 1032 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 1: on like you went overboard. Oh my gosh, that's so funny. 1033 00:50:56,360 --> 00:51:00,640 Speaker 1: Any questions, older guy, you have to do it like, Yeah, 1034 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,960 Speaker 1: I got a question. Why did you refer to the 1035 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 1: older guy? Maybe why are we in the same graduating class? 1036 00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's amazing. I'm sorry, I meant people 1037 00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:16,320 Speaker 1: with older children. Rick, what is your question for Christie? 1038 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:21,279 Speaker 1: I don't really have a question, but but um, I 1039 00:51:21,480 --> 00:51:24,600 Speaker 1: do travel quite a bit for work, and so sometimes 1040 00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:26,120 Speaker 1: when I come home, or a lot of times when 1041 00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:29,319 Speaker 1: I come home, it's really challenging for me to kind 1042 00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: of then put myself back into the family, even with 1043 00:51:32,560 --> 00:51:35,840 Speaker 1: my wife, but also with my kids. And so she's 1044 00:51:35,880 --> 00:51:38,160 Speaker 1: been dealing. She's been doing stuff, but like I'll come 1045 00:51:38,239 --> 00:51:40,399 Speaker 1: home and I probably sound a lot like Ryan, where 1046 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: I'm like, I mean, why why is that? Why is 1047 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: that over there? Like what you know, like why are 1048 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 1: the why is? Why is aren't the not? Why isn't 1049 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:50,880 Speaker 1: the laundry done? Because that sounds really bad, but like 1050 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:55,440 Speaker 1: why is it the laundry done? Why you've been You've 1051 00:51:55,480 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 1: been dealing with my kids for the last eight days 1052 00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,360 Speaker 1: while I've been traveling, you know, like, but it is 1053 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 1: something that's hard for me, and so like re entry 1054 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: is super hard, and even with my kids, it's like 1055 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 1: I'll come home and I was just on a trip 1056 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 1: recently and I came home and it literally was the 1057 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 1: first day and I was feeling good about the re entry. 1058 00:52:13,560 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 1: I'm like calm, I was nice with everybody. And then 1059 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,680 Speaker 1: my son came home and he's thirteen, and he was like, 1060 00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 1: all of a SUDDEN'M like, hey, you gotta you know, 1061 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 1: you gotta clean up your room. And it was like 1062 00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:25,800 Speaker 1: I started kind of bossing him around, Like what I 1063 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:28,200 Speaker 1: not bossing, I'm just telling him to do stuff right 1064 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:31,000 Speaker 1: like I would normally do. And he's the first thing 1065 00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:33,320 Speaker 1: you said to him, Now when you know, no no, 1066 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 1: is that not the definition of bossing? Confused? I gave him, 1067 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 1: I gave him a hug and was like, hey, clean 1068 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 1: up your room. No no, But he was like, Dad, 1069 00:52:42,880 --> 00:52:44,840 Speaker 1: every time you you're away, you come home and you 1070 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:47,120 Speaker 1: think you own the place. And I was kind and 1071 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,200 Speaker 1: it hurts by the way, you are kind of his 1072 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:53,799 Speaker 1: boss too, and you do own the place. That kind 1073 00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:57,480 Speaker 1: of go through my head. Yeah, And so it's hard 1074 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:02,399 Speaker 1: because I'm trying to ballo where yes, I'm also trying 1075 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,359 Speaker 1: to pick up the slack of where my wife maybe 1076 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:05,960 Speaker 1: left off, where it's like, hey, I'm coming in to 1077 00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 1: try to help you. Now his rooms like a mess, 1078 00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 1: and now I'll buckle down on it and get it 1079 00:53:11,239 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 1: done for you, and I'll start helping him. Well, he's 1080 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:16,000 Speaker 1: got to do it. That's good because totally backfired. There's 1081 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 1: nothing worse than coming in and being like the kid's 1082 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:20,359 Speaker 1: best friend after the wife kept it together for eight 1083 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: days or whatever, because then she's like, then you come 1084 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,719 Speaker 1: in and you're the Yeah, exactly, and she's the disciplinarian. 1085 00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,239 Speaker 1: It's good on you for trying to do that. See, 1086 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,080 Speaker 1: my thought was and looked by any by no means 1087 00:53:31,239 --> 00:53:34,440 Speaker 1: my a parenting expert. So let's just get that clear. 1088 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have a ten year old and a twelve 1089 00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:38,440 Speaker 1: year old. But what I would say in that moment, 1090 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 1: because he's clearly telling you something right when he's like, Dad, 1091 00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:44,560 Speaker 1: what do you think you're doing? I don't know at 1092 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:47,719 Speaker 1: what point it went from warming up like hey, how 1093 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 1: is the week? How did you know? Like that kind 1094 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,359 Speaker 1: of thing into clean your room? But I would think 1095 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 1: that if there was some good like communication, like let's 1096 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:58,560 Speaker 1: sit down and I want to hear about that game 1097 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,560 Speaker 1: or what happened in school, like really warming up to 1098 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 1: him and connecting first, and then be like, hey, buddy, 1099 00:54:04,680 --> 00:54:08,480 Speaker 1: I just noticed, would you know, instead of yeah, like 1100 00:54:08,600 --> 00:54:11,080 Speaker 1: a little bit softer versus kind of I think he 1101 00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:12,879 Speaker 1: probably feels like you haven't even been here all week. 1102 00:54:12,960 --> 00:54:14,319 Speaker 1: Now you're coming in and just telling me to claim 1103 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:18,399 Speaker 1: my real dad. Well well, and I mean, I don't 1104 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:20,800 Speaker 1: know if exactly how it went down, but I'm just like, 1105 00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,600 Speaker 1: and the other thing is it's coming back from an 1106 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: international trip, like I didn't sleep the whole way home 1107 00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 1: or get travel international. You're a big deal. No no, no, no, 1108 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:34,120 Speaker 1: not at all, not at all. But I'm exhausted as well, 1109 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 1: so it's hard to come in and then like you know, 1110 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: I'm and then I come in and that that interaction happens, 1111 00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 1: and then I might go sleep by nine o'clock. By 1112 00:54:43,280 --> 00:54:45,000 Speaker 1: the way, I don't think. I just feel like kind 1113 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:46,520 Speaker 1: of a dead beat dad. But as long as you're 1114 00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 1: not coming in and yelling at him, in my opinion, 1115 00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:50,440 Speaker 1: like just because you were gone for a couple of 1116 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,439 Speaker 1: days doesn't mean you don't come back in the same 1117 00:54:52,560 --> 00:54:54,360 Speaker 1: role as to where you left. So there should be 1118 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:56,000 Speaker 1: nothing wrong with telling your kids to clean up. And 1119 00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,279 Speaker 1: just because you haven't been around like you were going 1120 00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 1: for a few days, if you're coming in freeman at him, 1121 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,080 Speaker 1: that's a different story. No, and I wasn't. Here's the 1122 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:05,239 Speaker 1: other thing, which is maybe a little bit layer deeper, 1123 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:09,839 Speaker 1: where I feel like my wife is giving during that time, 1124 00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:11,920 Speaker 1: is like sure, you guys want ice cream, Let's go 1125 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:14,240 Speaker 1: get ice cream. Yeah, sure, you don't need to do homework, 1126 00:55:14,440 --> 00:55:16,560 Speaker 1: you know, And so like I'm coming in even with 1127 00:55:16,719 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 1: that layer of like anxiety or whatever you want to 1128 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,839 Speaker 1: call it. That's what I said back, And I'm like, well, 1129 00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 1: it's easy for you because your mom gives you everything 1130 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:29,719 Speaker 1: when I'm gone, you know, and so then it's like, wait, 1131 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:33,799 Speaker 1: did I just come out Ryan?
