Baby’s First Christmas Doesn’t Need to Be Perfect (What Actually Matters for Parents)
Episode 20
Wednesday, 24 December, 2025
Baby’s first Christmas can come with a lot more weight than most people talk about.The pressure to make memories. The logistics. The overstimulation. The quiet grief when it doesn’t look the way you imagined it would.In this episode, Chelsea and Mike talk honestly about what babies are actually learning during the holidays and why it has far less to do with gifts, photos, or traditions, and far more to do with tone, pace, and safety. We unpack how parental calm shapes a baby’s nervous system, why “making it special” often turns into performance, and how couples can protect their energy (and each other) during high-pressure seasons.This isn’t an episode about lowering your standards or forcing gratitude. It’s a permission slip to let this Christmas be real, slower, and more human, and to trust that presence matters more than perfection.If this season is highlighting exhaustion, resentment, or the need for clearer communication between you and your partner, this is exactly the kind of work we support couples with.You can learn more or connect with us at postpartumtogether.com.
