"she's the first person I told that I'm pregnant and she's not even a person, she's a cat!" - Colleen Ballinger when she just found out she was pregnant with Flynn.
Colleen seriously is the best because of her HONESTY. Her REALNESS. Her relatableness. That she shows she is HUMAN. I'm watching her video on my break at work because she brightens my day. She may be having a hard time during her pregnancy but knowing any one of us or even me could go through a pregnancy experience like hers. I am so grateful she let's us know all the behind the scenes and not just the highlight reel. Her podcast makes me laugh for hrs and I replay all the episodes as I'm crocheting and playing with yarn. Love her. Go Colleen. Thanks for being, just you. Incredible. 🇨🇦
I really think only people who've been pregnant can truly understand feeling "I'm so grateful to be pregnant" and "this is the worst I've ever felt in my life" at the same time. I simultaneously hated my pregnancy AND loved being pregnant and now, I never want to be pregnant again AND I miss carrying my girl inside me
For real though! I miss feeling my lil one moving around inside me but I DON'T miss puking every day. Pregnancy was the worst but also best thing I've ever been through.
I agree 100% she is such an inspiration to other women going through this. Yeah it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. She shows all sides of how she’s dealing with this. I love her
As a disabled person, everything you said about doctors resonates SO MUCH with my experience. Having dismissive doctors who don’t listen or take you seriously is the worst feeling in the world
Yeah, I'm disabled thanks to COVID but also 26 weeks pregnant, I had a chest infection for 3 months, no one believed me until I ended up in A&E, it's still clearing up 2 months later but at least I finally got listened to lmao
I've been struggling with infertility for almost 5 years. We did ivf and had a miscarriage in March right around the time you posted about your miscarriage. I've been watching your videos and staying updated with your journey. I found out that I'm 6 weeks pregnant.. naturally. I'm in complete shock. Thank you for posting these videos after your miscarriage. It's so hard to keep going and watching your videos have really helped and have given me hope. I hope this time around is different! Thank you
Girl, you’re going to have to a follow up with Mama Doctor Jones! This is a world of difference from the way your former medical professionals treated you with your last pregnancy!
I can't like this enough! I hope she does this after she's settled in with the twins and recovered from her C-section. That's another important part of her pregnancy journey and would be helpful to other women wanting to know the reality of her experience, especially now that she can compare and contrast her singleton gestation with her twin pregnancy.
That’s a really good idea - DMJ gets to a wide audience of women, and is so educational, and Colleen’s experience of difficult pregnancies is something that should be talked about more widely.
Hearing you say that your pelvic girdle pain was worse than your contractions is giving me so much hope. I am 32 weeks pregnant with my first baby and have been experiencing excruciating pelvic girdle pain for months now. I was so nervous that if this hurt this bad I was not going to survive labor. Here's to hoping I have a similar experience to you.
You can do it! I believe in you! Remember that you're not just doing this for your baby, you're going through all this for yourself too. You're battling your pain like a champ. even when you're crying, you're still winning because you're still going.
Colleen, I know you struggle with your confidence when you're pregnant, but you're genuinely so beautiful. You might not see it right now, but you're beautiful 24/7, no matter what. It's hard to feel beautiful when you don't feel good, so just remember it's just your mind twisting your perception right now. You're glowing girl!
Girl, you gotta stop calling yourself an idiot. I only say this because I notice you do it a lot. Words are so powerful and positive self talk is so important, especially during depression. Remember, you are incredibly talented, creative, an excellent actor, an amazing mum (Flynn clearly adores you) who is willing to sacrifice her body and sense of self to bring new life into this world, no matter what you do, it is enough and you are enough. You’re doing amazing. Love from Australia ❤️❤️❤️
I literally just realized how COOL she is. I'm already use to her personality but I searched up other 2nd trimester with twins videos on TH-cam and there is NOBODY else like Colleen. I love her humor and her personality so much I always feel like I'm hanging out with a friend or that one favorite aunt when I'm with her. She's so amazing I can'ttt
Colleen says she’s not glowing yet she most definitely IS 😍 I am so proud of you Colleen for getting this far!!!! You’re almost to the finish line girl!
Colleen thinking about you a lot recently. Sierra Schultzzie did pool time her last trimester. Floating and weightlessness help her a lot. Sounds like you're doing baths but maybe pool time can help too. You're doing amazing!
Oh yeah she did mention several times in her vlogs that doctors have recommended swimming. She just had trouble changing into a bathing suit and getting out to the pool 😅
I love that Colleen doesn't just talk about how horrible her pregnancy has been and the second trimester, she talks about what she does to make it manageable and help to the best of her ability. Thank you for being real and relatable
At first I felt she was being listened to, they were trying and it was still horrible, so it seemed nothing was working. I think Collen saying that she hasn't fainted shows that the treatments are working - and I suppose things would be worse without them. I suppose I'd just hoped that with good managment things would be a lot easier.
Ok. I started watching when she was pregnant with Flynn. Found out I was pregnant with my first right around the time we found out about the twins. Theses videos are a godsend. Realistic, honest, it all just really helped me feel seen. Thank you! Loving you as a mom vlogger. Older TH-camr (Vlogbrothers 2.0 era) and I LOVE when my OG faves show themselves growing up with me.
I love how open you are about your mental health. Sometimes I worry my anxiety will prevent me from being able to have kids, but watching you makes me hopeful. You’re such a great mom despite your struggles with your mental health.
I had a bath every night during my pregnancy. It is really relaxing during the 3rd trimester. Over the last 2 months I often had one in the morning. Feeling fresh is so good for wellbeing.
Just wanted to say thank you and Eric for your Relax podcast.. I live in quite a scary block of units all on my own.. every night when my crazy neighbours are up and screaming/carrying on I listen to your guys podcast to get to sleep. Makes me feel safe and not so alone.. so thank you ❤️💙
Sometimes I can see and hear when Colleen is talking about something and she's holding back her emotions and tears. Even if in that moment she has nothing to cry over just mentioning what makes you cry can be enough to make you cry if it effects you enough while it's happening (if that makes sense). Love you Colleen and you're one of my favorite TH-camr's... you're so genuine, authentic, and relatable and I think that last thing is really important for having a good connection with your audience.
Tortilla talk: do you think Flynn might struggle a little with the big changes with the twins? As in if they cry late at night or just how they might muddle his routine, or do you think he’ll adapt quite quick? I love you all so much and Flynn is so adorable!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡
SINGLE MOM HERE! I had my 2 daughters close together (got pregnant on the birth control pill) but I was really scared my oldest daughter wouldn't take too her little sister well but since day one she's been kissing and cuddling and just loving her sister since the day I brought her home and I'm so proud of how such a good big sister she is 🥰
@@farukahamed2994 how could they spend more time with him? They are around him 100% of the time. He has their undivided attention always. And honestly it’s good for kids to experience sharing their mom and dad. My boys all dealt with it differently. I have 4 boys, you just do the best that you can and hope for the best. Colleen and Erik are phenomenal parents. They’re exponentially more attentive than most parents, but also set boundaries. I adore their sweet little family and can’t wait till they go from a family of 3 to a family of 5!!!!
imagine being colleen ballinger…a mother of a 2 y/o…being 8 months pregnant…WITH TWINS…dealing with a hell of a pregnancy…and still blessing us with vlogs almost every single day. she should be deemed a saint. ilysm colleen!!❤️
As soon as Colleen said she hasn’t fainted with this pregnancy, I found some wood to knock on!! Queen, you’ve got this!!! We’re all sending you good vibes only!! ❤️❤️
Thank God for good caring obgyns. My first pregnancy I had such a terrible doctor who never listened to anything I said or gave me options. It was a constant battle when the last thing I wanted to do is be strong and advocate for myself. Thank goodness I found a better doctor this time around.
I love how Colleen can come out here and give off such a happy, positive vibe. She shows us both sides, the good and the bad. She shares her good days and her bad days. Just to let other women who are pregnant or going through hard pregnancies that they’re not alone.
I'm so sorry pregnancy is hard for you. You're a freaking Rockstar for doing it again even after your pregnancy with Flynn. It also makes me sad you have to constantly reassure your audience that you understand that not everyone can get pregnant and it's not valid for you to complain. It is. It's your life, please dont feel bad for complaining about your struggles, they're valid too.
Hi, college student here and only a fur mama but I just wanted to say you are one of the strongest women I have EVER seen and you give so many people joy! Stay strong, we all love you and are wishing you the absolute best!
I ran across your videos when I was depression scrolling one day and I just wanted you to know that I feel 1000xs better about how I've been feeling about pregnancy, and knowing that I'm not alone has been so helpful. I love my kids and I love that I can experience birth, but this pregnancy has been the worst thing EVER. You being honest and open about symptoms makes me not feel alone, and I've been feeling alone for 8+ months. So thank you for being so real and raw with your experience and know that your videos has helped this really pregnant mama get through the last few months of pregnancy and hopefully the next week or so until she decides to show her face!
I haven’t been on TH-cam for a couple days and today when I came back I got this video and a video titled “birth of my twins” and i am so exited to see that video after this but it is so cool how this was posted two days ago and now you have 3 children right after posting this! That is so cool!
I love you so much Colleen! I am 13 years old and I find you so inspiring. I watch all of your videos 😅 I wish I could be like you when I’m older. You are an amazing parent, amazing aunt, amazing everything! Although you are an adult and I’m not, sometimes I still relate to some of your struggles and it’s always good to relate to someone. So excited to see your family grow! Also, you are doing so AMAZING in this pregnancy. It’s a well known fact that growing a human being is hard. Let alone two! Let alone having the most crazy symptoms on top of that! Praying for you each day for things to get easier for you. You are supported by millions of us and I’m sure we can all agree, you are a beautiful human being. Lots of love from England 🏴 ❤️ 🤍 Sadly I know nobody is going to see this so Colleen can’t see it :( Thank you to those people who liked this to help Colleen see it. Love ❤️
I had a 10lb baby & was as "big" as you are at that same stage! Lol. Im so excited to see the twins. Honestly, you are kicking butt with this pregnancy!!
I’ve never had morning sickness, 1st trimester with my son I didn’t even feel pregnant (emergency csection, 8lbs15oz). I had hotness and lightheadedness with my daughter first trimester. My second pregnancy was much harder than my first, my daughter was transverse and hurt me so badly every time she kicked or moved…I’m only 4’10” and I was enormous! My daughter was 9lbs5oz (planned csection).
Colleen, thank you so much for speaking out about how important it is to find medical professionals that are willing to listen. I've had so many traumatic experiences with doctors not taking my symptoms seriously and after 15 years of actively trying to find medical answers to my weird symptoms I finally have a diagnosis (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) and a supportive team of doctors, PTs, etc. guiding my care. Unsolicited advice for anyone out there reading this, it's OK to advocate for yourself, only you know how you're feeling and trust your gut if you feel like something isn't right. I love hearing about your genuine emotions towards pregnancy, thank you for being such an open, honest person. It inspires me to become more empowered myself!!!
God bless you colleen, you became a part of so many lives, giving a breather to so many people, doing funny stuff, informing, trying to be your best self but also show your more vulnerable side which is how humans are; love your main channel and your vlogs, stay healthy you and your family ❤️❤️❤️
Whenever she posts these days i feel like there's gonna be a split second of her labor picture with twins.. As she did with her first one 💖 Man im so exciteddd
I have another 6 weeks of my second trimester. It has been aweful. I'm still sick all the time and nothing works. So tired all the time. I have tried for 16 years with two losses so I am also greatful to be here.
I lived in the bath during my pregnancies, I was having 2 or 3 a day! Whatever works for you, as long as you follow the guidelines. I know you are still struggling and will until the babies are born but you’ve got this Colleen. You’re on the home stretch now ❤️ xx
Colleen, you are such a brave and strong mama! You are beating this pregnancy and winning, your pregnancy is the hardest i’ve heard of and I am so proud!
I’m literally 13 (clearly not pregnant) but I still LOVE watching Colleen’s videos about her life and journey with being pregnant with twins! They are just a great source of positive energy!
Hey Colleen! I just recently found out I was pregnant with twins! I just finished my first trimester. Your videos have helped me so much. I really appreciate it you filming your time as a pregnant women with twins.
It's amazing to have doctors who listen to you. Like 14 years of obgyn doctors telling me that there wasn't anything wrong with me and it just sucks my periods were so bad and irregular. I got frustrated after seeing multiple at one practice and pretty much all the providers at another practice I called the practice I was currently in saying that I wanted to see an endometriosis specialist (I had just about every symptom and my maternal grandmother has it) I got asked if I was diagnosed with it and I told her no, that's why I want to see him. I've NEVER had someone so understanding and willing to listen to me. It felt amazing. I got the surgery to see if I had it about a year ago. I do have it, though it wasn't bad since I have been on birth control since 15, and I did feel a lot better after. Still some break through cramping but my guess was having stuff stuck to the wrong spots for so many years wasn't good. Luckily he does normal stuff too, so he can be my permanent provider!
I’ve been sooo depressed these past few months and literally seeing Colleen’s videos/vlogs/podcasts every week literally is like a reward for living and thriving another day 💗❤️ love you!!
I’ve watched you for the past 7 years.. and I can’t believe you’re going to have 3 kids! I love watching you and your beautiful family grow! You’re such an amazing momma🤩💓
Colleen, I'm so so happy you've been able to find a Dr and many resources to help you through this pregnancy. It still sounds horrible but you seem to be managing so much better with all this help compared to last time. Definitely encourages me to seek help when help is needed.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot as I found you when you announced your pregnancy with Flynn. I think that the fainting was due to how hard you overworked yourself with Flynn. I wouldn’t be surprised if these babes stay in just as long as Flynn because you have been forced to take it easy this time. I hope that whenever they decide to make their grand entrance everything goes well and these last weeks go a smoothly as possible for you and your family 💜💜💜
Honestly, I never followed or watched any family/pregnant mom vlogs EVER . You basically introduced many OG fans to the family/pregnant mom side of youtube and I find that pretty funny
the twins were already two days old. oh my god i’ve watched her come so far i’ve watched since like 2010 :’) colleen i’m so glad both you and babies are healthy, i love you so much. although we are in *very* different stages of life i’ve watched you grow and at the same time i’ve grown, which i am truest grateful for. i love you and wish love & late for you and your family.
Colleen, I've watched your videos for over 6 years now and growing with you has ment the world to me. I love your honesty and can't wait to meet our new best friends. ♥️
A big tip for helping calf cramps is to pull the front of your foot towards your knee when the cramps are happening. Erik can do this for you if you cant reach. This has really helped me in the past!
My twins were 2 days overdue. Weighing in at 6 lb 10 oz and 6 lb 12 oz. I absolutely loved being pregnant and felt great the whole time except the last month. I was just huge. I was only 23 at the time, so maybe youth was on my side, not that you’re old. My twins are mirror identical girls, now 35 years old. They were my first pregnancy and the birth was natural and uneventful. My son was born 15 months later. His delivery was trickier.
Colleen i haven’t even watched this video yet but i just want to tell you how excited i get every time you upload literally anything. i’m going through a rough time right now (i know you are too with the pregnancy) and i just love being a little bit a part of your life💕 so thank you
I know Colleen keeps saying she doesn’t have the pregnancy glow, and I’m sure you might not feel glowy at all, but I genuinely do think you look SO GOOD during pregnancy!😍🔥💛
I'm so glad you were able to find a doctor who was a better fit for you and suggested ways to fix/help some issues rather than just tell you to get used to it!
Daisy taking ‘cat-revenge’ on Colleen is magnificent! Colleen has told us numerous times that Daisy refuses to clean herself, so Daisy responds: “I’m gonna lick my butt on camera, try saying I never clean myself again woman!’
I am- ADHD Bi Polar I have Mental Illness OCD Special Ed I enjoy watching your videos to distract me from what I have. I love you so much Mrs.Colleen. I love your family and pets.
I’m not even close to getting married/ having kids I’m still in high school yet I know so much about pregnancy and birth and stuff due to this channel and other vlog channels Edit: I’ve leaned more about this stuff form TH-cam channels than I have in health which was for 1 semester in middle school and 1 semester in high school
You’re telling me that about 7 or 6 months went by THAT FAST. I’ve been watching you for as long as I can possible remember and I’ve been constantly watching you on repeat since you found out you were pregnant with the twins and time is FLYING!!
your pregnancy and my fibromyalgia have the same symptoms, so i feel for you sister and I'm so glad you get to deliver two miricals and feel better again soon
i love how i enjoy colleen's pregnancy content when i don’t have kids and i don't want to have kids

And honestly it’s good for kids to experience sharing their mom and dad. My boys all dealt with it differently. I have 4 boys, you just do the best that you can and hope for the best. Colleen and Erik are phenomenal parents. They’re exponentially more attentive than most parents, but also set boundaries. I adore their sweet little family and can’t wait till they go from a family of 3 to a family of 5!!!!
Tortilla Talk is on the vlog channel
imagine being colleen ballinger…a mother of a 2 y/o…being 8 months pregnant…WITH TWINS…dealing with a hell of a pregnancy…and still blessing us with vlogs almost every single day. she should be deemed a saint. ilysm colleen!!❤️
As soon as Colleen said she hasn’t fainted with this pregnancy, I found some wood to knock on!! Queen, you’ve got this!!! We’re all sending you good vibes only!! ❤️❤️
Thank God for good caring obgyns. My first pregnancy I had such a terrible doctor who never listened to anything I said or gave me options. It was a constant battle when the last thing I wanted to do is be strong and advocate for myself. Thank goodness I found a better doctor this time around.
Thank god you got a better dr!!!!!!!
I love how Colleen can come out here and give off such a happy, positive vibe. She shows us both sides, the good and the bad. She shares her good days and her bad days. Just to let other women who are pregnant or going through hard pregnancies that they’re not alone.
I'm so sorry pregnancy is hard for you. You're a freaking Rockstar for doing it again even after your pregnancy with Flynn. It also makes me sad you have to constantly reassure your audience that you understand that not everyone can get pregnant and it's not valid for you to complain. It is. It's your life, please dont feel bad for complaining about your struggles, they're valid too.
Hi, college student here and only a fur mama but I just wanted to say you are one of the strongest women I have EVER seen and you give so many people joy! Stay strong, we all love you and are wishing you the absolute best!
I ran across your videos when I was depression scrolling one day and I just wanted you to know that I feel 1000xs better about how I've been feeling about pregnancy, and knowing that I'm not alone has been so helpful. I love my kids and I love that I can experience birth, but this pregnancy has been the worst thing EVER. You being honest and open about symptoms makes me not feel alone, and I've been feeling alone for 8+ months. So thank you for being so real and raw with your experience and know that your videos has helped this really pregnant mama get through the last few months of pregnancy and hopefully the next week or so until she decides to show her face!
love the second trimester video straight into the birth of the babies omg
I haven’t been on TH-cam for a couple days and today when I came back I got this video and a video titled “birth of my twins” and i am so exited to see that video after this but it is so cool how this was posted two days ago and now you have 3 children right after posting this! That is so cool!
I love you so much Colleen! I am 13 years old and I find you so inspiring. I watch all of your videos 😅 I wish I could be like you when I’m older. You are an amazing parent, amazing aunt, amazing everything! Although you are an adult and I’m not, sometimes I still relate to some of your struggles and it’s always good to relate to someone. So excited to see your family grow! Also, you are doing so AMAZING in this pregnancy. It’s a well known fact that growing a human being is hard. Let alone two! Let alone having the most crazy symptoms on top of that! Praying for you each day for things to get easier for you. You are supported by millions of us and I’m sure we can all agree, you are a beautiful human being. Lots of love from England 🏴 ❤️ 🤍
Sadly I know nobody is going to see this so Colleen can’t see it :(
Thank you to those people who liked this to help Colleen see it. Love ❤️
commenting so more people can see this comment
I’m 13 too and I totally agree! I want to be like her when I grow up! And she’s kinda like the aunt I never had
@@sappy5143 thanks! :D
@@kjs22 YESSSS!
I think colleen will see this I hope so. Also I lived in England than not long ago i moved to portugal. And i am 9.
Your willingness to be unapologetically real and raw throughout this vulnerable journey you’re going through is so admirable.💗
Who's is here after her twins were born!!!
For leg cramps in the middle of the night, try standing up immediately. It sucks, but it usually gets rid of them almost instantly.
I had a 10lb baby & was as "big" as you are at that same stage! Lol. Im so excited to see the twins. Honestly, you are kicking butt with this pregnancy!!
So did Kory post this two days after babies were already born to throw us off? I love it! Congrats Mama!
I’ve never had morning sickness, 1st trimester with my son I didn’t even feel pregnant (emergency csection, 8lbs15oz). I had hotness and lightheadedness with my daughter first trimester. My second pregnancy was much harder than my first, my daughter was transverse and hurt me so badly every time she kicked or moved…I’m only 4’10” and I was enormous! My daughter was 9lbs5oz (planned csection).

Colleen, thank you so much for speaking out about how important it is to find medical professionals that are willing to listen. I've had so many traumatic experiences with doctors not taking my symptoms seriously and after 15 years of actively trying to find medical answers to my weird symptoms I finally have a diagnosis (Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome) and a supportive team of doctors, PTs, etc. guiding my care. Unsolicited advice for anyone out there reading this, it's OK to advocate for yourself, only you know how you're feeling and trust your gut if you feel like something isn't right. I love hearing about your genuine emotions towards pregnancy, thank you for being such an open, honest person. It inspires me to become more empowered myself!!!
I'm so sorry you had to fight for so long, and so genuinely happy for you that you now have your team! It makes all the difference!
God bless you colleen, you became a part of so many lives, giving a breather to so many people, doing funny stuff, informing, trying to be your best self but also show your more vulnerable side which is how humans are; love your main channel and your vlogs, stay healthy you and your family ❤️❤️❤️
To think Colleen is most likely going to have these twins in the next couple of weeks is sooo exciting! I can’t wait to see them
With her luck they will be born on Christmas 🥺… lol, but I agree
Guess what
I love how colleen shows real life and not the kind or "Pinterest mom" kinda thing. She's just so real I love it! You brighten my day colleen 💗
I became an IV infusion nurse a couple of months ago and it's been my fav nursing job! Love helping my patients in the comfort of their homes.
Whenever she posts these days i feel like there's gonna be a split second of her labor picture with twins.. As she did with her first one 💖 Man im so exciteddd
SHE POSTED THIS YESTERDAY AND NOW THE BABY CAME OUT ALREADY AHHHHHH
To think that collen posted this video with the twins already born is so cuteee!!
I have another 6 weeks of my second trimester. It has been aweful. I'm still sick all the time and nothing works. So tired all the time. I have tried for 16 years with two losses so I am also greatful to be here.
Who’s here after she just had her babys omgg there so cutttteee
Having doctors who are invested in YOU, and not just getting the visit done, makes a huge difference during health challenges!
Colleen you're so close!! We are all rooting for you hang in there!

I lived in the bath during my pregnancies, I was having 2 or 3 a day! Whatever works for you, as long as you follow the guidelines. I know you are still struggling and will until the babies are born but you’ve got this Colleen. You’re on the home stretch now ❤️ xx
Colleen, you are such a brave and strong mama! You are beating this pregnancy and winning, your pregnancy is the hardest i’ve heard of and I am so proud!

I’m literally 13 (clearly not pregnant) but I still LOVE watching Colleen’s videos about her life and journey with being pregnant with twins! They are just a great source of positive energy!
And now your beautiful babies are here .. I’m so happy they are well I also have a new niece who was born this morning and I’m glowing with joy
Hey Colleen! I just recently found out I was pregnant with twins! I just finished my first trimester. Your videos have helped me so much. I really appreciate it you filming your time as a pregnant women with twins.
“i’m not a doctor, i’m an idiot” - colleen ballinger 2021, 😹 i love her, she makes my day so much better
I laughed 😂
It's amazing to have doctors who listen to you. Like 14 years of obgyn doctors telling me that there wasn't anything wrong with me and it just sucks my periods were so bad and irregular. I got frustrated after seeing multiple at one practice and pretty much all the providers at another practice I called the practice I was currently in saying that I wanted to see an endometriosis specialist (I had just about every symptom and my maternal grandmother has it) I got asked if I was diagnosed with it and I told her no, that's why I want to see him.
I've NEVER had someone so understanding and willing to listen to me. It felt amazing. I got the surgery to see if I had it about a year ago. I do have it, though it wasn't bad since I have been on birth control since 15, and I did feel a lot better after. Still some break through cramping but my guess was having stuff stuck to the wrong spots for so many years wasn't good. Luckily he does normal stuff too, so he can be my permanent provider!
PURE glowing beauty!
That hair!
That Face!
That Bod!
Keep smiling!
You got this!
Her face is glorious
I’ve been sooo depressed these past few months and literally seeing Colleen’s videos/vlogs/podcasts every week literally is like a reward for living and thriving another day 💗❤️ love you!!
I’ve watched you for the past 7 years.. and I can’t believe you’re going to have 3 kids! I love watching you and your beautiful family grow! You’re such an amazing momma🤩💓
Colleen, I'm so so happy you've been able to find a Dr and many resources to help you through this pregnancy. It still sounds horrible but you seem to be managing so much better with all this help compared to last time. Definitely encourages me to seek help when help is needed.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot as I found you when you announced your pregnancy with Flynn. I think that the fainting was due to how hard you overworked yourself with Flynn. I wouldn’t be surprised if these babes stay in just as long as Flynn because you have been forced to take it easy this time.
I hope that whenever they decide to make their grand entrance everything goes well and these last weeks go a smoothly as possible for you and your family 💜💜💜

I just realized she posted this 2 days after the twins were born omg
Honestly, I never followed or watched any family/pregnant mom vlogs EVER . You basically introduced many OG fans to the family/pregnant mom side of youtube and I find that pretty funny
i’m so happy you focused on yourself this pregnancy and didn’t forget that how you feel matters and not everything is all about the babies!
the twins were already two days old. oh my god i’ve watched her come so far i’ve watched since like 2010 :’) colleen i’m so glad both you and babies are healthy, i love you so much. although we are in *very* different stages of life i’ve watched you grow and at the same time i’ve grown, which i am truest grateful for. i love you and wish love & late for you and your family.
THIS WAS 2 DAYS AGO AND NOW SHE HAS 3 KIDS!!! IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU CONGRATS COLLEEN!!!
Colleen, I've watched your videos for over 6 years now and growing with you has ment the world to me. I love your honesty and can't wait to meet our new best friends. ♥️
I literally just came from the twins birth video and Im literally crying. Congrats 💜💜💜💜
A big tip for helping calf cramps is to pull the front of your foot towards your knee when the cramps are happening. Erik can do this for you if you cant reach. This has really helped me in the past!
Colleen you make my worst days into my best days! Love you and never stop being you!
My twins were 2 days overdue. Weighing in at 6 lb 10 oz and 6 lb 12 oz. I absolutely loved being pregnant and felt great the whole time except the last month. I was just huge. I was only 23 at the time, so maybe youth was on my side, not that you’re old. My twins are mirror identical girls, now 35 years old. They were my first pregnancy and the birth was natural and uneventful. My son was born 15 months later. His delivery was trickier.
Living my pregnancy dream through you!!!!
I can’t believe this was posted two days ago and then Colleen tells us the twins are here omg I can’t. Our queen 😭😭😭
You look stunning and you're doing Amazing. You're caring for a toddler, pregnant with twins and you are still rocking it as hard as it is
the fact this got posted after she had the twins!!!
The fact that she posted this and the twins were 2 days old and we didn't know
BAD LIGHTING?? NOT A GOOD SETUP!!?? Coleen your videos are effortlessly perfect what are you talking about!💓
Tortilla Talk Questions.
Have you picked names yet?
Does Flynn understand that there are twins coming soon?
Love you and your family Colleen 💞
Colleen i haven’t even watched this video yet but i just want to tell you how excited i get every time you upload literally anything. i’m going through a rough time right now (i know you are too with the pregnancy) and i just love being a little bit a part of your life💕 so thank you
I know Colleen keeps saying she doesn’t have the pregnancy glow, and I’m sure you might not feel glowy at all, but I genuinely do think you look SO GOOD during pregnancy!😍🔥💛
I’m pregnant with twins as well, and I’m in the beginning of my second trimester. I love you and your videos Colleen ❤️❤️❤️
Colleen is such a genuine person

I'm so glad you were able to find a doctor who was a better fit for you and suggested ways to fix/help some issues rather than just tell you to get used to it!
Colleen you'd be surprised at how many people ask me if my boy/girl twins are identical🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
It’s very rare but there are cases where boy/girl twins can be identical. As a mother of that you’d think you would know this 😂
@@thesteppingstonesnursery9205 no but seriously how would that work, please explain
@@Estertje93 I’m thinking the exact same thing! 😂 cause identical twins have the exact same DNA, but females are XX chromosomes and males are XY.
You are a superstar sweetie! You are in the home stretch! I’m proud to be on this ride with you, thanks for posting it.
Daisy taking ‘cat-revenge’ on Colleen is magnificent! Colleen has told us numerous times that Daisy refuses to clean herself, so Daisy responds: “I’m gonna lick my butt on camera, try saying I never clean myself again woman!’
Yes its HILARIOUS
I am-
ADHD
Bi Polar
I have Mental Illness

I enjoy watching your videos to distract me from what I have. I love you so much Mrs.Colleen. I love your family and pets.
I’m not even close to getting married/ having kids I’m still in high school yet I know so much about pregnancy and birth and stuff due to this channel and other vlog channels Edit: I’ve leaned more about this stuff form TH-cam channels than I have in health which was for 1 semester in middle school and 1 semester in high school
You’re telling me that about 7 or 6 months went by THAT FAST. I’ve been watching you for as long as I can possible remember and I’ve been constantly watching you on repeat since you found out you were pregnant with the twins and time is FLYING!!
Who is here watching 2 days late and now the babys have been born!
your pregnancy and my fibromyalgia have the same symptoms, so i feel for you sister and I'm so glad you get to deliver two miricals and feel better again soon
Being a twin I feel so bad for my mom when she was pregnant with us 😂

oh
That’s true but at least she had you and your siblings
Same here I am a twin. And I've been watching Colleen thinking "how did my mom do this?"
