    With regards to why the baby is said to be genetically bigger, the percentiles is usually based on the sample size of local babies. But there is a difference in what is the average for caucasian babies VS asian babies. Although Taylor’s family may have had a history of average caucasian babies - this may statistically still mean bigger than the average asian babies.

      Please for the love of god don’t call white people caucasian. Its very racist towards poc because of the history behind it. Also if you’re not native to the caucasus mountain which is located in asia, why would you ever think its alright to use that stolen word that described us indigenous people from there..? Anyways i don’t think ill of you, i’m aware that not everyone knows of this and have been taught the wrong way, i’m just letting you know..^^’

    • @Iflie
      @Iflie 2 ปีที่แล้ว +87

      Yes exactly what I was thinking, I think it's weird that the gynocologist wouldn't think of that though. My dutch friend had a baby and it was really tall, if you get a tall baby it of course is already bigger from the start than asian babies. I doubt they have the avarages of babies over the whole world preprogrammed in their computer.

    Important note on Bio-Oil: I’ve been told by multiple people that it’s not good for pregnancy/breastfeeding and was confused because it’s marketed FOR pregnancy. After doing more research it turns out it contains retinyl palmate (it’s high up on the ingredient list too) which gets converted into retinol in the body. So while it works well for stretch marks and fading scars, and many people use it during pregnancy (and their babies are completely fine) I’m going to minimize the risk and switch to natural almond oil. I like the product so I will use what I bought after birth/breastfeeding to be safe. I always want to give you all of the information I have (which does change as I learn more as I’m new to this Mama thing), but please do your own research and use at your own discretion.

    Dear Taylor,
    Thank you for making this series... I struggled so much in 2020 with trying to get pregnant. (Our journeys overlapped here for a bit.) I almost wish I had been able to see this series at that time, as my mental health went so low thru out that process, and I know this series would have helped me then - as I am sure it is helping many women [who may also be currently trying to conceive] feel less alone right now.
    I remember reading in one of the descriptions you wrote, that you hoped your baby would find you guys. It is such an overwhelming feeling to think that this process is as much about you finding your baby, as it is your baby finding you.
    I did end up getting pregnant at the start of this year and just gave birth to my son a month ago. :') Watching your pregnancy journey gets me so teary. I am so happy to have found your series in real time - to be able to follow your updates as they get go up right now. I can't wait to continue following you on this precious journey. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it. Sending love and best wishes to you & Tom. And last but not least, congratulations!!!

    Don't let anyone scare you about any part of pregnancy. For some women breastfeeding is hell ridden with pain and mastitis, while for others it's completely pain free, lovely experience. Like with you, your face got acne while others have that pregnancy glow. My mum also didn't have a day of morning sickness or nausea in both of her pregnancies so I think every woman is different. It's good to be informed and prepared for potential future struggles but at the same time, you won't really know what will happen to your specific body until you get to that point.
    I am really happy for you and seeing you struggle with the fashion jobs was kind of hilarious and put such a light spin on the whole thing. I adore Rosie, she seems so in love with you in general but lately she's even more protective of you and I find that so sweet. I also watch Jenn Im's channel and I'm kind of excited that you watch her too and ordered the same body pillow as her 😂 how cute. I'm so glad too for us to be up to date and I can't wait for more videos 💖

    Also, dogs are so sensitive to their humans. They know when we are sad and when we are sick. In the previous videos when your stomach was sore from IVF and she was being clingy it was probably because she could not only sense that you were physically uncomfortable but also the emotional turmoil you experienced at times. She definitely knows you're pregnant and she also probably sense your happiness. She has been with you for this entire journey. It's so sweet.

      People do that with pets so much and it never ceases to piss me off. As if their pet isn’t ‘needed’ anymore because they see them as a trial run for their ‘real’ children and once they get pregnant they kick them to the curb.
      My boyfriend’s sister did this. Had a cat she loved for years and then immediately after getting pregnant she begged everyone to take the cat because she ‘didn’t have time for it anymore’. I’m sorry but cats basically take care of themselves so if you can’t even spare your cat a few minutes of attention a day then you shouldn’t even have gotten one in the first place.

I am a Canadian living in the USA and have had your channel through Covid and not being able to visit my family and my new grand daughter (born 1 year ago) since 2019.

    I was a super big baby too! I was 9lbs when I was born and my mom had to have a c-section with me. (She’s like 5’5 I think) I’m a small human now that I’m 30 though. I’m only 5’1 and 110lbs.

    Everyone's experience is so different. For me it was the opposite, pregnancy and birth was tough, but breastfeeding was a breeze and it is what i enjoyed the most and what i miss the most too, those intimate moments with my little, giving what only i can give, those hugs and cuddles and those cute sounds that she made as she ate.... and there is no substitute. Now she is 6, love her to bits.

    I have been following you for 7 years now, and I can’t explain it, but I feel as though I have grown with you throughout the years. To witness this journey is truly an honor and I commend you for being brave enough to be this vulnerable with such a large audience. I have always enjoyed your authenticity, which is something most creators lack in their content. I am a mother myself, and while I did not share your struggles, I know the feeling of wanting to grow a little human bean and experiencing everything that comes with pregnancy and motherhood. Forever keeping you and Tom (whom I will still always remember fondly as elbow-San), in my thoughts. I am beyond excited for you and all I can say is, it only gets better from here. Even with the low moments of motherhood, it is worth it and you will become a better person for it. Congratulations, Taylor 💜

    I don't think that pregnancy is something I will ever experience in my lifetime, which makes me somewhat sad, but I'm not too far away from pregnancy being geriatric if it happens, and I could still go either way on it, but who knows. Everything you've shared is eye-opening.

    Dogs can tell if someone is pregnant. My dog knew my sister was pregnant..he was always rough with her and always jumped on her, but I know he sensed something so he became so calm with her and followed her around like no tomorrow. And bumped his nose on her belly telling her he knew a baby was in there.

    I feel like you may not need to worry too much about the size of the baby. I imagine the "general baby size" in Asia will be smaller than say the taller/wider westerners. My sister in law had a 10lb baby and she did it with ease haha! My family is Scottish so we tend to be bigger..

All three caught, and now I’m here with my siblings (2 girls, 1 boy)😊 Watching your videos has helped me to see how strong and brave families who go through infertility are, and has given me a new awareness and respect to my own mother who has gone through the same thing.

I agree that Baby's health comes before Mom's complexion, but especially if this new acne is painful get advice, more advice and then do your own research. There should be a certain percentage of Mom's whose acne got worse when pregnant resulting in more online assistance.
