If you're watching this and you're pregnant, I really hope you will find these hacks helpful! So many of these have helped me so far and I wanted to share
Congratulations to You. I am 10 weeks pregnant today; super excited as I'll be 36 in July & had been trying a while. Best wishes & lots of luck to All women out there trying for A baby❤️!!!
Same! And they make them so cute now too, I actually started embracing my bump when I popped because of them and felt beautiful as a woman bringing a life into the world ❤ no shame in having a baby bump!!
I'm a guy who was raised in a large family and changed the ladder diapers in my day falling in love with babies as I did so. I find pregnant women extremely beautiful in fact more more beautiful than ever in their life and choose to tell them so when I recognized that they are carrying the new life... It's nice to see that beaming smile... These mothers-to-be emanate Beauty
Not all women look or feel beautiful I got a nasty rash only on my cheeks from this pregnancy even thou I feel fine besides my back hurting im happy bc they say not all pregnancies r the same n om starting to realize it.
My partner and I expect to have a baby soon and I already have stretch marks on my hips and breasts since high school! I am already mentally preparing to have several during pregnancy! 😅
I'm 21 weeks expecting my first and find these tips SO helpful. They are simple, clever and practical, and can easily be added to my everyday life without a headache. Thank you so much for giving this new mother some peace of mind!
I always put oils and lotions. Still got a lot of stretch marks towards the end. But I got the same stretch marks like my mom so it is what it is I really don’t care there’s nothing you can do so just gotta embrace it
I am 33 weeks pregnant and have not needed any of these hacks. Also maternity jeans can be relatively cheap at ross, I bought a pair for $16 early on in my pregnancy. It fits your entire pregnancy and makes it a lot more comfortable. Now I just wear dresses since it's summer and you dont even need to buy maternity dresses, just stretchy ones that look flattering.
I got a pair of maternity jeans at walmart for $13 and they actually look really cute! In case anyone is looking for super cheap maternity clothes -- Walmart is super cheap!
Yeah, I'm pregnant with my first and I'm not even stressing too much with oils and lotions because pretty much everywhere I read said the lotions and oils don't really reach the area where they happen so just choosing to accept whatever my body wants to do :)
30 weeks today and can only agree that drinking water is important. I've suffered with terrible morning sickness the entire pregnancy and got all of my nutrients from pregnancy multivits. Quite literally only been able to eat chocolate and baby is doing fine 😁 dont worry about stretch marks or tearing. If it happens it happens, I'm proud to be a mum and my body is proof of the hell I went through to get the beautiful little boy at the end of it.
I LOVE what you said about retraining our minds for birth! I live in nj in the USA and when I tell people I want a homebirth/waterbirth people look at me like I’m nuts... I don’t like hospitals and I’ve read horrible stories! I’d rather be comfortable and not have the temptation of an epidural!
So happy when you pulled out the Hypnobirthing book. I chose to practice the method and take their classes. I feel so inspired. Sadly, I get negative reactions from people. When I tell people my birth plan, They always feel the need to share their “traumatic” birth experience. It bothers me :(
i'm so sorry that you've had a negative experience :( at the end of the day, you have to do what's right for you and your baby. and dont forget to surround yourself with supportive people :) wishing you and easy pregnancy and labor!
This is my first pregnancy, I'm 8 weeks. I truly appreciate your tips. You look in great shape by the way. Would you mind sharing your homemade salad dressing!
It is the biggest struggle eating healthy when you feel so sick all the time though, I am 14 weeks and while I normally love vegetables, they make me gag just thinking about them now. Any suggestions on still getting reccomended foods in while sick?
ugh i know it's terrible! i used to love healthy food before pregnancy and 1st trimester, all i could stomach were french fries! haha but for me it got better and now i can eat my healthy foods again. i say for now, eat whatever you can so that baby is getting nutrients. i hope it will get better for you too so you can start enjoying healthier fare soon!!
Just for someone else who needs now: some saif you can smell the food you love before every bite of veg that helps. Or try eating or drinking something you love in between every bite, it helped me to eat in first trimester
I do not think that there is anything "extra" about a hospital birth. If an emergency were to happen, as they unfortunately do, it is better to be in a building that already has people trained to handle emergencies. I think that "extra" is worth it.
i didn't mean the hospital is extra, im sorry for the confusion. im having my baby delivered at the hospital too. i meant that when pregnant women are in a hospital setting, they are often over-prescribed medication that they dont need. even though i will be delivering at a hospital, i hope to deliver naturally without any drug intervention because i believe a woman's body can do it on it's own (if there are no complications with the pregnancy). of course, if it is an emergency situation and there must be intervention, i am open to it too because i just want my baby to be safe. hope that clears it up!
Hey I’m 1 month pregnant (new momy)! And I really don’t want to give birth in a hospital. Medicaid does not cover water birth either. What should I do? Should I go to a midwife center? I really want a natural birth But everyone is saying epidural is so much easier and quicker Please help !
hey hey you can try a birthing center and you can give a natural birth in a hospital without an epidural. I hired a birth doula and my hospital has midwives as staff just do some research on your hospitals, some have midwifes & they allow you to have a active labor .
This is my first pregnancy, I’m 27weeks and I’m glad I came across this video. Learned some new things that I will definitely be using and doing during my pregnancy! Thank you💕💕
Great video thanks however I WOULD NOT put that aloe vera anywhere near your privates- it looks natural but check the ingredients, it most certainly is not!!
I am 37 +1 weeks pregnant 🤰🏻 & I have yet to buy maternity clothes or wear maternity jeans .. I still use the elastic band trick. It works for me still
Sad thing is not every woman can stay active in her pregnancy. Especially if complications affect the pregnancy. I'm not allowed to do my normal fitness routine. Or walk too much right now. I can't even do yoga. 😭😭😭😭😭
OMG the only thing I can think of right now is that am 2 and a half months pregant and I have the same belly size as you but you're 6 months !!! Thanks for sharing these tips not sure I'll be able to handle them all cause my schedule unfortunately doesn't give me lots of free time. But I go for a walk at least once a week. Did your belly get twice as big once you reached the 9 months ? xo
When should you start using a belly band to support your belly? My belly feels heavy to me and is hurting my back. But i feel I'm too early in pregnancy to be using one since im only 19 weeks. From when to when should you use one.
hydrolyzed collagen! make sure it's from grass-fed beef and has no antibiotics. i linked a safe one in my description box but make sure you talk to your doctor always :) and congratulations!! so exciting!
Hello beauty,did you eat the vida glow is collagen?I remember should not take during pregnancy. I was worried to see you eating. Did you ask your obstetrician?
i do not take marine collagen, if that's what you are asking. only organic grass-fed beef collagen and my OBGYN has approved. don't worry, I always do a lot of research on everything to make sure it is ok for baby :)
If you're watching this and you're pregnant, I really hope you will find these hacks helpful! So many of these have helped me so far and I wanted to share
Niki Sky am about to complete my 9th week, I haven’t done any exercise till now, can I start the exercises now for normal delivery?
please talk to your doctor! xx

Maternity clothes are SO comfortable and flattering. I can’t believe I ever thought of going without them.

Congratulations 💞💞💞
Why everyone here wants a boy.😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐😐
When i found out im having a boy i cried i hoped for a girl 😑🎀

I had stretch marks already, and I don't think they're a huge deal
I've had stretch marks.since hight school so I'm use to it
Me too
My stretch marks appeared when I was eight months pregnant and they are ok.
My partner and I expect to have a baby soon and I already have stretch marks on my hips and breasts since high school! I am already mentally preparing to have several during pregnancy! 😅
Same. I’ve learned to live with them, but now i can be like oh it’s because I’m pregnant lol
I'm 21 weeks expecting my first and find these tips SO helpful. They are simple, clever and practical, and can easily be added to my everyday life without a headache. Thank you so much for giving this new mother some peace of mind!

SeriouslyBadElf I got like 4 outfit at the thrift store for $20 ☺️
Same. Maternity jeans are where it's at!!
Where exactly are you living to get jeans that cheap, where am living you can't hardly find maternity dresses imagine to a jeans and am 4 months
I've massaged my body with oils and lotions from day 1 currently 27 weeks and I've got lots of purple stretches h Marks lol guess its genetics
it is! No amount of moisturizers/lotions or oils will stop your skin from stretching if that's what it's going to do.
Yeah, I'm pregnant with my first and I'm not even stressing too much with oils and lotions because pretty much everywhere I read said the lotions and oils don't really reach the area where they happen so just choosing to accept whatever my body wants to do :)

Why would you want to hide your baby bump?? Embrace it and be proud you are carrying that bundle of joy.
some people don't feel ocmfortable sharing until later in their pregnancy. to each his own!
🙄
Dont be judgy Karen
Yes sooo I wany to hide mine until I am ready to announce
Ppl be too touchy in public too, so sometimes we wanna just go out and be lowkey about it all
This is my first pregnancy, I'm 8 weeks. I truly appreciate your tips. You look in great shape by the way. Would you mind sharing your homemade salad dressing!

I’m in the same boat! I love veggies and just can’t stand them now!
Just for someone else who needs now: some saif you can smell the food you love before every bite of veg that helps. Or try eating or drinking something you love in between every bite, it helped me to eat in first trimester
Healthy smoothies
My first trimester nausea Was extreme! I ate what i could which Was fast food and i trusted Jesus. Baby is healthy and fine ❤️
Your pregnancy belly is absoloutely beautiful. You look overall amazing.😍
thank you for your sweet comment xx
This is by far the most helpful and informed video ive found on TH-cam
I do not think that there is anything "extra" about a hospital birth. If an emergency were to happen, as they unfortunately do, it is better to be in a building that already has people trained to handle emergencies. I think that "extra" is worth it.

I think she was just reiterating that hospital births aren’t always necessary, hush
What do they "over prescribe?"

@@kingamy3167 are u having nausea?
13 weeks pregnant and learned a lot!!!!
congrats girl!! so glad you enjoyed xx
Hi, great video!
Great video thanks for the tips. I must say essential oils are not recommended during pregnancy.
When should you start using a belly band to support your belly? My belly feels heavy to me and is hurting my back. But i feel I'm too early in pregnancy to be using one since im only 19 weeks. From when to when should you use one.
The week number is not important. If you are having pain, then belly band support will likely help you
You will definitely will have a great body after your baby....
I am 13 weeks pregnant..your videos are so helpful for me..how are you now?love from India ❤️❤️

Take care

Thanks for sharing i really found your video very helpful
So tell us, Nikki, how did it go on the after birth?
Wait so no ab workouts while pregnant? I thought that a tight core helps with labor?
I’m 37 weeks and where has this video been 😢
Why do you avoid dry brushing your belly?
What an amazing video. Thank you.
There’s no way she’s 6 months pregnant towards the end of the video, I’m shocked.
skye cheslock With your first baby, your bump can be really small. Everyone is different.
Haha I'm six months pregnant and still have same smaller bump
Hi I love your videos! Can you send me a link for the purple dress In the beginning of your video? Its so cute. @Nikisky
Hello beauty,did you eat the vida glow is collagen?I remember should not take during pregnancy. I was worried to see you eating. Did you ask your obstetrician?

you're a life saver !!!
Walmart has cheap and really comfortable maternity jeans. They’re more like looser version of jeggings
Hi I want one of the spanx mama shorts but on amazon their is only sizes A,B,C & D. Which one is large? 😭
Strengthening your abs while you’re pregnant supports your pelvic organs as your bump gets bigger. It’s safe.
Hi today was my 7 month start so can I do this exercise for normal delivery
I would also try to avoid getting any cuts/scrapes on the belly. That’s how I got some stretchmarks(all of my stretchmarks).
thanks for sharing!
