Show Notes
Gabrielle and Tyler, the founders of the Bumpdate app, join Samantha on the Running Wine Mom podcast. They discuss their journey from conception to creation and how their app is redefining support and community for expectant parents. They also share their favorite wines, vent about their current challenges, and celebrate their recent victories. Gabrielle talks about her struggle with career changes and her pride in being a mom. Tyler discusses the challenge of balancing motherhood with her previous career in a hospital setting and her pride in creating her own family. They both emphasize the importance of finding support from other parents and remembering that everything is temporary. The Bumpdate app was created to connect friends and family during pregnancy and parenthood, providing a platform for support and community. The founders, Gabrielle and Tyler, were inspired by their own experiences and the need for social support during these life stages. The app allows users to track their pregnancy milestones and share them with their village, receive personalized notifications, and access a blog with diverse stories and information. The future plans for the app include features like photo sharing, in-app chat, and a shop section. The goal is to continue providing social support and mental health resources for users.
