This week on Camp Chaos, we’re sitting down with the OB-GYN who guided us through our own pregnancies — and who we trust wholeheartedly — Dr. Illeck. From advocating for yourself in the exam room to understanding the truth about VBACs, toxins in pregnancy, and what actually makes for a healthy pregnancy, this conversation is packed with wisdom every woman deserves to hear. We dive into the realities of postpartum care, the emotional world of being an OB, and what epigenetics really means when it comes to your baby’s environment in the womb. Whether you’re pregnant, postpartum, or just passionate about women’s health — this one’s for you.

Screen Time Rules: What We Allow, What’s a Hard No, and What We’ve Let Go
We swore we’d be screen-free moms… until reality hit. In this episode, we’re breaking down our honest approach to screen time—what we allow, what’s a hard no, and the little hacks that actually help, like slowing down playback speed to reduce overstimulation (game changer, by the way). We’re sharing when we allow screens (and when we don’t), how we navigate the constant guilt spiral, and the shows that are basically honorary family members at this point. Plus, our personal tips for making screen time feel better—for both our kids and ourselves. If you’ve ever found yourself thinking, “Is this too much?”—this one’s for you.

Life After the Diagnosis: A Mother’s Journey Through Level 3 Autism with Tiffany Sumner
In this powerful episode, we sit down with Tiffany Sumner, an autism mom whose son Ford was diagnosed with profound, level 3 autism at just 2 years old. Tiffany shares the early signs she noticed, her experiences with pediatricians and immunizations, and what she believes may have contributed to Ford’s diagnosis. She opens up about the terrifying and traumatic moments that led her to place Ford in a care facility for his and her safety. Tiffany also speaks candidly about how autism affected her family, including the heartbreaking loss of her former husband during the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, she’s on a mission to advocate for real change in the autism community. This is a raw, emotional, and eye-opening conversation about parenting through crisis, mental health, and rebuilding life after trauma.

Outnumbered – What It’s Really Like Going from 2 to 3 Kids
Going from two kids to three? Buckle up. In this episode, Taylor gets real about her transition into life with three kids—the beautiful, the chaotic, and everything in between. We’re diving into what helped, what didn’t, and how to introduce a new baby to older siblings without completely losing your mind (spoiler: you probably will sometimes, and that’s okay). From managing routines when you can to fully surrendering when you can’t, this is an honest conversation about adjusting expectations, giving yourself grace, and finding tiny moments of calm in the chaos. If you’re in it, about to be in it, or just curious what it’s like to be outnumbered, this one’s for you.
