After a week of doomscrolling, our eyes are TIRED! If you're a parent in the digital age, chances are your eyes are hurting. This week, we’re joined by Dr. Pam Theriot - Optometrist, TEDx speaker, and nationally recognized expert in eye health! We discuss why so many of us are at risk for eye strain, the bad habits many of us (myself included) are definitely guilty of, and the screen time rules we (and our kids!) should live by. Dr. Pam also dives into the role hormones play in eye health, talk about a pregnancy and postpartum symptom no one ever warns you about!

This week on Bottle Service, Sarah braces for a major winter storm and discusses survival techniques for the winter months inside with rambunctuous little ones. She also discusses the "mother son" wedding dance heard round the world & the clothing selections at Costco before diving into a very REAL parenting issue no one warns you about: parental preference. Does your baby only want Mommy… or Daddy? And why does it somehow feel like the most personal rejection of your life? Let’s talk about it.

Got a situation you need an unbiased (but honest) opinion on? Email sarah@bigkidproblems.com and we’ll discuss it on the pod.
