Grief, Growth & Raising a Bi-Racial Son with Nina Monique Feb 26, 2026

Show notes

In this episode of Nightclubs to Nightfeeds we’re joined by Nina Monique — and nothing is off limits.
We start with who Nina is and her journey into pregnancy, before diving into the heartbreak of loss during pregnancy and the depression that followed. She shares what it looked like to grieve while still moving forward… and how that season shaped her motherhood.
From labor stories and babymoon moments to the very real postpartum recovery, we talk about what happens after the baby arrives — physically, emotionally, and relationally.
We also get into keeping the spark alive in your relationship, deciding on preschool, navigating vaccination choices, and what it means to intentionally raise a bi-racial son in today’s world.
It’s honest. It’s layered. It’s vulnerable.
And it’s the kind of conversation that reminds you — motherhood is never one-dimensional.

We’re wrapping up Season 1, and what a year it’s been! From conception to the toddler years, we’ve shared the highs, lows, and everything in between.
In this finale, the three of us reflect on motherhood and the incredible growth of our kids — now ranging from 19 months to 3½ years. Nicole’s two-year-old just loved his first Disneyland trip, Krystal’s 18-month-old is climbing everything, and Kristine’s independent preschooler is thriving in gymnastics. Of course, with milestones come challenges: tantrums, testing patience, and finding healthier ways to handle big feelings.
We also open up about transitioning out of breastfeeding — from clogged ducts and mastitis to the bittersweet emotions of closing that chapter and gaining new freedom for work and creativity. This shift has us reflecting on “matrescence,” the identity evolution of motherhood, and navigating mom guilt, balance, and support systems.
Finally, we dive into family planning: from being “one and done” to considering another round with the newborn stage, and the pressures society places on these choices.
It’s been a joy growing alongside our listeners this season. Thank you for your support — we can’t wait to bring you more stories, guests, and maybe even more babies in Season 2!
