This episode is dedicated to the weird moms. To moms with hobbies of their own, to the moms that would rather donate money than time to the PTA. So for the moms who love their kids, and would do anything in the world for them but know you don’t have to make them your ENTIRE world, let’s go. This episode is for you. Links!!

Today’s episode is brought to you by Migraines. No, it’s not just a headache. No, I’m not “just dehydrated”. Yes, I took something for it.

She comes with aura, dizziness, slurred speech, and sensitivity to light and sound. If you've ever experienced a migraine, this ones for you. ------------ Links  ---------------- Joint the community on Discord: https://discord.gg/GKtPuRF4jk LinkTree:  https://linktr.ee/MomWithIssues  TikTok: @themomwithissues  ------------- Articles and Resources ------------- 6 Parenting Tips for When You Have a Migraine https://www.webmd.com/migraines-headaches/features/migraines-and-parenting Migraine Totally Sucks, Especially When You’re A Mom https://www.scarymommy.com/migraines-totally-suck-especially-when-youre-mom/ Chronic Migraines Rule My Life https://www.scarymommy.com/parenting-with-chronic-migraines/ Migraine Effects on Speech https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6939667/ 13 Natural Migraine Remedies for Some Sweet Relief https://greatist.com/health/natural-remedies-for-migraines Tragus Piercing https://greatist.com/health/tragus-piercing-for-migraines https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4977344/?report=classic Migraine Facts / Statistics https://migraineresearchfoundation.org/about-migraine/migraine-facts/ Mayo Clinic https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/migraine-headache/in-depth/migraines/art-20047242  https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/headaches-in-children/symptoms-causes/syc-20352099 Clinical trial – Botox in Adolescents https://www.mayo.edu/research/clinical-trials/cls-20118279 --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
