    Thank you for the kind messages! Really, I am overwhelmed, and I really appreciate it being so kind on both sides.
    With that being said, this is obviously a difficult time for everyone involved, and I'm having a third party "friend" go through and gently remove the few comments that may make this time more difficult for either person. I know this can be frustrating, especially if a comment gets deleted due to misunderstanding, but I'm trying to navigate this to the best of my ability. I just think its better than totally banning comments on this video, and you can always DM me (but I may be taking this day off reading much on social media).
    Okay I'm going to go on a walk with Arrow now, and brush my teeth. Hopefully lol. xoxo

      You should title this video differently!!! That way women who are in the same situation as you will be able to find it more easily and I am sure that will help them relate. With all the clickbait on youtube right now "we need to talk" sounds like something small and silly like you're changing your upload schedule. I would make the title clear and direct to the situation.

    I got divorced when my first daughter was one, so I completely understand at least some of what you’re going through. It was the best decision I’ve ever made, as I met my true soulmate a couple of months later, and we’ve now been together for 15 years (and we have a daughter now too). You have to listen to your intuition girl, it will never lead you astray. That being said, I’m so sorry you have so much on your plate, that is not an easy situation for anyone. Whatever you are going through, just sending you so much love and peace. Please be kind to yourself.....😘❤️❤️❤️

    I’ve been watching you since your “beauty guru” days on TH-cam. Then you got pregnant around when I did which made me a bigger fan to get to go through this journey for the first time “with you”. I look forward to your videos and recommendations. Bought more than a few products you’ve suggested for baby. 🥴 Point I’m getting at is you’re a ray of sunshine and bring a lot of cheer to people. You’ve been so helpful and relatable to new mamas like me. I pray that the joy you bring to others comes back to you ten fold. Arrow is so lucky to have you as her mama. She’s gonna look back at these videos and know she’s so loved. I’m looking forward to watching this next chapter of your life. I’m wishing you both love and happiness! ❤️

    Similar to your story about you and your mom when you were a kid, I was raised by a single mom and we had to move often when her relationships didn’t work out and I never questioned or felt a lack of love from her.

    Girl I’m so emotional watching this. We had our girls the same week, same exact weight, and now I realize our lives completely changed due to splitting with their dads AT THE SAME TIME. I’m fortunate enough that my mom took us in, I know having her 27 year old daughter and new granddaughter wasn’t ideal for her, but it worked out and I have a home. To hear that this worked out so well for you makes my heart soar for you. What a rollercoaster and to feel you are on the right path is amazing!!! You are such a great mama and I love your videos. I wish we were closer cause we’d totally be friends 😂 good luck, and you are ROCKIN IT!!!! ❤️❤️❤️

I went through treatment during pregnancy and after. My husband was so so supportive during the first treatment. When it came time for my 2nd treatment something shifted in him. I am back home with my family and my son. Finished my 2nd treatment and now trying to figure out life after. God made us women so strong that we can make it through almost anything.

    From childhood experience, it's better for a single mom to do her absolute best for her child than to try and navigate a not so good relationship that might affect what examples the child grows into. I saw my sister struggle A LOT with wanting her partner to be more involved and to this day its still not equal (in the slightest) so I believe you'll do your best and Arrow will be just fine. Stay dedicated, you can do this.

    Hey, I just want to say that wether you and Cody work things out or not, it’s really inspiring to see how you are able to talk about how you wish for Arrow to have a great relationship with her dad and you don’t want to talk bad about him or gossip about the problems you may have with each other. I think it takes a lot of strength to get to this point of peace from your end and in what seems like a world full of people ready to tear each other down if they feel wronged by the another, your approach to this incredibly challenging situation is refreshing.

I don't care how harsh that sounds, he was being immature and unsupportive and I'm not surprised that nothing about that changed after he became a father. Honestly, I don't think men who act like that are truly fathers at all.

      I completely agree. It seemed like he barely put in any effort to care for her and constantly let Brittany or made Brittany pull most of the weight in caring for Arrow and that really sucked to watch. Maybe he put in more effort behind the scenes. But my gut feeling is that that we saw him acting that way and barely putting in effort, then it was probably even worse behind the scenes because people tend to put their best foot forward when on TH-cam

    I am a New subscriber as I typically don’t watch vloggers but I am currently 19 weeks pregnant and have been looking for new moms advice on “must haves” and what not as I am totally lost in the sauce. I really gravitated towards your personality and binged watch your videos and notice your husband seemed very distant from your experience with birth and as new parents. I obviously hadn’t watched a lot of your content so I chalked this up to “probably being his personality” but I did notice it from the start. I then saw this video and everything made sense. I think you are such a wise and positive woman and giving a great example for your daughter.

    • @alyssarh
      @alyssarh 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I have heard that fathers have a harder time/take longer to form that bond with their children. It's so unfortunate that it seemed (on video) that he wasn't trying to fix it. And that's no hate at all. I'm sure he loves her very much. But it felt like he just let Brittany do everything, so it's natural that if he's not pulling any of the weight, he wouldn't be getting any of that connection of helping provide care to his child. I hope they both do better now from this separation and I hope he is able to form more of a connection and provide more care for Arrow
