- Here is a realistic glimpse into what you can expect the first 24 hours home with a newborn….especially if you have other kids!
Bringing home a new baby is always an adjustment. You worry how the older kids will take it, will your toddler understand, and concerns of being able to give each child the love and the attention wash over you.
As a mom of 5, let me just say, you will have enough love for all of them. I promise you figure it out. It’s also good to remember that each child has different needs.
P.S. I was not moving around like this after the birth of my first. My recoveries have gotten easier with each kid ❤️

Omg the paper plate suggestion. Thank you!
@@maikalee6757 right?!! Game changer! I am all for being environmentally friendly but you gotta pick your battles during this stage
You're beautiful and your children are too
Yes yes yes & YES!!
I experienced this 6 months ago,
I have a
7 year old a
5 year old, a
3 year old, a
1 year old AND
A 6 month old.
Those first few weeks are crazy, but once everyone gets back into the routine it doesn’t get easier it just gets more manageable. Oh and now we’re expecting baby #6 :) so wish me luck!
Wow rock on girl! I recently had my first couldn't imagine balancing all of that! 💪
@@potato1084 😱 I will!! Thanks for noticing! I forgot lol
@@potato1084 There! Changed it!
Wishing you the best
girl not even resting betweern each kid??? give yourself a rest im begging
YOU DID IT 😍😍😍 so happy to see baby right back where he belongs! At home surrounded by love and care
When my mom had my younger brother, people brought over meals and would offer to watch us even if she was just running to the store. Our house had burned down about 3 months prior so people knew we needed the help but it just helped so much.
The minute you get home to your kids with your new baby you realise it is going to be fine. It feels like you've always had them. With my last baby born at the very beginning of lockdown it was such a beautiful time in our home. My husband was able to work from home thanks to covid so he was on hand to help out a lot more than before. The kids werent at school. The bonding was so special. I cherish those years. My four children seem so much older now three years later. And we don't plan on having any more so that last precious few months with my kids and a new born will always seem extra special to me.
“Bc you will get up through the night” 😂😂😂 I think that’s what this fellow mom was saying at the end.
I know I’m going to come back to your channel when me and my hubby are ready to have kids. It stresses me out to think about but even the small tips in the vids seem doable and realistic. I can’t believe how big your family is & how you can maintain it all! A beautiful family & team!
Why thank you so much!! I promise you can do it!! I am an average mom who just learned as I went ❤
Well the first rule you should pick up from these channels is to not put your kids on the internet because most images predators use to get off to are the harmless videos and images on the internet publically published by their parents. We're getting back to scrapbooks, ordering prints and getting minors faces off the internet.
I’m 28 and single but I really hope to be a mother one day. It seems like so much work but watching you juggle 4 kids and a newborn is so inspiring. I’m also glad you mentioned taking time for yourself and doing your skin care, etc. Self care is so important especially for new mamas. You can’t pour from an empty cup so I’m glad to see you making time for you.❤️
Its sooooooo much work. Be most careful to choose who u want to procreate with. Also if u dont like repeating yourself kids wont work for u
@@hopeking37lol I have to repeat myself with grown ass people
I think I’ll be good 😂
Literally same😊❤
One of six here. Grandparents are awesome to have whenever a new baby comes. Not only do they watch over you when Mom and Dad are in the hospital, they can stay longer when baby comes home to help. Cook, clean, bedtime stories...helping you adjust to a whole new person in the house because you're totally not jealous...
If you don't have any grandparents to call, reach out to a good friend or family member. The first days are really hard because you have a real, brand new person in the house and Mom is *tired* after delivering baby and building a schedule with baby. Be patient and feel free to reach out to those that love you because they *will* come help you and stay longer of they can.
I brought baby number 3 (in 4 years) home this past weekend. So many snuggles and then wanting to touch her face while she's nursing or sleeping 😂 I'm so thankful our church set-up a meal train and I was able to freeze meals before I gave birth. My husband is many things but a chef isn't one of them! Haha congrats on your newest bundle of joy!
Go Mama! You are such an inspiration!
You are too kind 🥹❤
What she was gonna say was you will lay down but be awake the rest of the night either feeding, wondering why they’re crying or checking their breathing when they’re fine and sleeping lol
Yes! Or just staring at them in general, it’s surreal that they’re there 😂
I know this is old, but I just have to say, SO FEW PEOPLE TALK ABOUT PAPER PLATES!!! I've recommended them a couple times as part of a postpartum gift basket and almost nobody acts like they're a good idea. I'd rather cook than do dishes. Lol
This life is so exhausting. I’m hesitant to have one kid let alone 4 🙃
I needed to watch this today. I have an 18 month old & I’m pregnant with my second. I keep thinking, HOW am I going to do this 😭 but you make it feel much less intimidating ❤️
the 1 year old: oh god i’m being replaced
**only as the youngest tho 😂
I love you guys so freaking much!! Thank you! As a fellow pregnant lady your videos help me feel so much less anxious 🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
My husband and I got in an argument every time we came home with all 3 of our kids. So many hormones, stress, nervousness, tension, anxiety…just a bad mix! Thankfully we got it out, apologized to each other and carried on!
I had my daughter in 2015 the car ride home wasn't too bad. I had some anxiety. Then I had my son in 2022 and that ride home was way different. I had THE worst anxiety. 😫 it was not fun having that kind of anxiety.
I have two I will NEVER have another I love my sleep, Idk how you do it lol good luck
This is my oldest daughter’s life right now too! I love it!! Five kids. 6,5,3,1 and 2months!
My first pregnancy was twins and terrified for number 3 so seeing this was eye opening for how moms make it. Thank you for this!! 🤟🏼
I still remember trying to pee right after giving birth. Yeah it takes 10 minutes.
The one year old looked like…I’m not sure how I feel about this
I've had 3 kids and my expectation when I get home from the hospital is SILENCE and a NAP... and THEN we can hit the ground running 😅
Lovely thing is the kids will start taking care of eachother as they age too❤
I’m due in 4 weeks but 🤞🏼 hoping baby #4 (a girl) comes sooner! We can’t wait to meet her!
Thank you I love an experienced mom we are planning our first baby and I honestly learn a lot from you ❤
We have post natal care for a whole week (or more if needed), at home. Some body cones to your home to help with everything, including the dishes, laundry cleaning and cooking (and taking care of the other Kids). Wish it for everybody in the world to have acces to it
which country?
My fiancé deadass needs to sit with me during my bathroom breaks to understand how tedious it is omg
The newborn is so adorable😍😊
my first day home was crying in pain 😅 good job, mama!
Congratulations the new addition to your family!!!
Well done 👏👏👏
Thank you so much!!❤
She has a bazillion kids and still takes a shower and does her skin care routine. I had one baby and wanted to take a shower a week after birth...my mom said "I'm not watching her while you shower, you're a mother now, you don't get to shower"
Omg im so sorry. Get ypurself a new mom!!
I really appreciate your videos!💛
This is ridiculous. You need time for you to heal right after birth. More time in hospital or resting by yourself. You haven't even had a chance to clear the anaesthetic! No wonder maternal mortality rates are high in your country.
If you look into the cause of maternial mortality rates in the US its those women who 1) dont attend doctors appointments like they are suppose to, 2) dont follow the things the doctors tell them such as eliminate caffeine and salt from your diet when you have high blood pressure, 3) they refuse to take the meds prescribed to them, and most importantly 4) they will not attend post birth appointments.
Girl u crazee😅 I was so overwhelmed with one
CONGRATULATIONS! 🎊
My mom felt the need to get a nanny after having 3 kids in 4 years. I can’t imagine doing this without an extra pair of adult hands.
The hard part about going to bed IS the five kids. Lol.
Ghaaaa!
You don't help my baby fever 😂
My youngest will be one in January and already the husband and I are talking about the next one 💓
You mentioning your age promted me to tell you i found the love ofmy life at 39. Got pregnantat 39 and again 41
Aww so cute! Love your videos they make me look forward to the future and make me less nervous about having kids
Oh wow this means so much 🥹❤️
Just got home with our first yesterday, time seems to already be flying by
I have 5. I can so relate
Your amazing mama great job😊❤❤
Thank you
Thank you for making these videos they have really been helping me. My kids are 10 and 7 and we are having a baby in March and I am out of the game and I am a basket of nerves!! The refresher def helps me feel a little less lost 😆
Congratulations 🎉 and thank you so much!! ❤ I am honored to be a part of your journey!
Girl you got this! I had my first 2 kids back to back then 8yrs later had my second 2 back to back. After that 8yr gap I was terrified! When I went into labor it happened so fast like only 3hrs fast! By the time I got into my hospital room I was sitting on her head. In 2 pushes she was out. It's so amazing how horrible the pain can be but as soon as you see them it all melts away. You got this mama!
Your baby looks very healthy 🎉and you did it good job mama🎉
I know damn well the moment you turned that light off you got right back up to feed the baby again.
Crockpot meals! Love the lift out ones, so easy, just pop in fridge! Congratulations!
As a woman who doesn't want kids at all .i can tell you are an amazing woman 4 kids and 2 under 2 waw 😮
The moment I found out I was pregnant, I instantly told him I will be showering every day. Like I’ll sacrifice almost anything about I’m gonna need those 10 mins .
Have fun waking up at like 2 AM in the morning
The paper plates is a great idea
Can you make a video about gifting used toys that were not cleaned and sanitized before given to you…. Like the thought is nice, but that actually ends up being more work for the parents, because now you have to clean the toys. Maybe that’s just me, but I think other people could agree.
I ask for prayers foe my daughters and I. We would like to be continuously together. When we are together it's beautiful
When we are apart my soul is lost
I just got to ask how do yall have kids on top of kids? I'm pregnant with my first baby and I'm stressing over him.
Not to be a downer, but i hope you can handle all of this if your husband passes away. I had 2 children to raise when my husband died.
The one year old is plotting something!!😂😂
It was so nice when mine turned 2 yrs old
That baby’s back looks jacked af
❤❤❤
I'm 99% sure without seeing the follow up video that the end goes something like "right when you get laid down the newborn starts crying" lol
He a big lad ❤
Aww we are expecting another baby in Aug and we have 5 other kids from ages 1-16
Do you use a pacifier from day 1? I'm wondering how that works because in my country they advise to start using a pacifier in week 6 because of breastfeeding
i think i can finish the sentence “because you will not be going to bed” 😹
Does your hubby have videos of new dads stuff and how he coaches you and such
What’s the name of the wrap your wearing
Tips for getting baby to sleep better? My 3 week old will wake up when I lay her down even after I've nursed her.
Routine, routine, ROUTINE! Trust me, following the same routine that you do at bedtime as well as nap-time and when they wake during the night will help give your baby the cues they need to go to sleep once down (obviously your routine will be unique to you and adapt as you see fit). Having a warm, dim light source that you turn on only at bedtime will help with that routine. Try to avoid nursing to sleep if you can - it creates the wrong stimuli for sleep as they'll think that's what's the cue for sleeping, even if they're not hungry. Obviously, feed at the appropriate intervals but try not to let her sleep while doing so. Putting your baby down when they're drowsy BUT NOT ASLEEP will also help with that because their body is in the process of falling asleep so they're less likely to be awoken by movements during sleep, I.e. putting them down, and being able to see that they're falling asleep in the same environment as they wake up in less disorientating for them
@@rb2k196that's awesome advice for any new mother & applies to everything. Thank you😊
Do you constitute with home school postpartum
But isn't it going to be hard for the one year old? They need a lot of validation and time too, right?
They most definitely get it ❤️❤️
@@chrissyhorton I hope you have a happy life. Must be exhausting at times. Nothing more beautiful than a mother ❤️
We are on day 3 of being home with our 3rd baby. The nights are definitely the hardest part. Clusterfeeding sucks everything out of you, literally
How did we manage to do all this before TH-cam? My gosh I’m surprised any of us made it! LOL.
You should feel so proud ! ❤
I have a three year old any suggestions bc I'm tired and it's been hard andy other baby is two weeks and one day
Looked absolutely different for me.
God I want this so bad someday.
Thats alot of kids
Mckenna and Logan
Wow! So how many are you planning to have? Your husband seems to be a wonderful helper. So many young couples are having big families these days; I love it 🥰
I love that you showed Bible reading with the kiddos
So you had a one-year-old and you like got pregnant on purpose? Wow that's nuts man lol
Needed to hire a nanny or have mom there a couple days.
Spare a thought for those parents without the luxury of the children's grandparents nearby and willing and able to help out.
Ooh girl, that snoo is so expensive 😂
$1,700 bassinet??? That's insane 😳
The 1 year old isn't about this life 😂😂😂😂😂
What if you're broke?
Sleeping without new baby?
i just saw middle child syndrome begin in her one year old’s eyes
You will what? YOU WILL WHAT!!?
YOU WILL WHAT!?!?!!?
One less child on Earth means less food to produce, less energy to spend, and most of all, it's a whole life of consumption and impact on the environment
So do the environ a favour then if you're so concerned 🙄
My husband had to help me with exclusive pumping he held the breast pump up to my boobs lol
Going to bed you will what 😮? Slip up again and🤰🏿
Your 1 year old is confused 😅
I’m not sure it’s legal to call that chub-bub a newborn he looks like a 3mo old. It’s takes most babies at least 2mo to get filled-out. All of my babies were little old men for at least the first 2 months.
Too many.
