In this episode of What I Wish I Knew, Amy and Christina sit down with Dr. Rebekah Diamond, a pediatrician, author, and mom, to discuss the real, often messy side of parenting.

Dr. Diamond shares her journey from being a confident pediatric resident to facing the overwhelming realities of new motherhood. We talk about the need for balanced parenting advice that blends science with intuition, how to navigate the noise of social media, and why trusting yourself is key.

Dr. Diamond also reveals what she wishes she’d known about safe sleep practices and breastfeeding, and how her experiences shaped her books, Parent Like a Pediatrician and her latest on toddler years, Eat Sleep Tantrum Repeat.

Whether you’re a new parent or a seasoned one, this episode is full of practical insights and heartfelt moments that remind us we’re all learning as we go.

Tune in for a conversation that’s real, supportive, and empowering.
