      auralite moon it takes a lot of strength to go through pregnancy, childbirth and becoming a new parent without having your own mother to confide and talk to. Good luck on your journey, I’m sure you’re a wonderful mother and she’ll be looking down on you with pride. ❤️

I feel like it’s my Dad’s prayers that are bringing this sweet angel into my arms after so long, and I think your Mom will live though you and this gift of your incoming angel. Lots of well wishes for you and your baby and my condolences for your Mom

      ramrodnj um....?! don’t tell people to “get off the pill”. it’s her choice, and it’s keeping her from getting pregnant. birth control pills are very safe. i mean sure, using the combination pill can slightly increase health problems but they are VERY rare. i’ve been on it for two years and all it has done has made my periods longer, but they were oddly short before. don’t go spreading this stuff

    I LOVE that you say “that’s ok” for most things that moms usually stress about or get scared... it’s a whole new world for mom and baby, specially at the beginning when both are trying to figure out things, but it gets better and moms should know that it’s TOTALLY normal to mess up and to make mistakes and to cry when you feel overwhelmed... and also to hand the baby to someone else if you need to catch your breath. ❣️🙌🏻

    • @Latinhoodie
      @Latinhoodie 4 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Yes! This is so accurate. I’m a first time mom, my baby is one month old and it was tough the first week home from the hospital...it will get better y’all...I’ve felt every emotion you can think of and the ultimate result is feeling more confident in what you’re doing and feeling more at ease. Always ask your pediatrician if you have ANY questions, that’s what they’re there for. Every friend or relative will give you their two cents so be ready for that...just take their advice and go on with your day, no need to debate or be rude with them and their opinions. Everything will feel overwhelming, but remember to breathe...walk away if you need to and if you have a support person either your significant other or a friend/relative have them take over for a while. It’ll help, trust!

      @ashleyramirez6886 4 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      Also if it’s been in any accident. At least when my sister in law got in a car accident her insurance had to reimburse them for a new car seat cause it’s considered “damaged”.

    • @cleansocks
      @cleansocks 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I was going to say the same thing. Used car seats are pretty strongly discouraged because A) unless it belonged to your best friend or sibling, you can't know if it was in any car accidents, and if it was, then it may have structural damage and is considered unsafe. B) SO MANY baby products get recalled, so it's important to double check on this, and C) Car seats DO expire--typically they're considered expired 5-6 years from the manufacturing date, because safety technology advances so quickly.

      My husband did all those things because I had unexpected emergency caesarean and septic shock. I was in emergency room unable to function and in pain, having morphine hallucinations for more than week during which I remember seeing kid only twice. Then slow recovery. Having supportive husband who knows how to do baby things is really helpful. He also get paid 3 months parental leave.

    FTM here of a 2 week old. Thank you for jumping right in to a lot of great information. I feel encouraged and confident that I’m doing the right thing-so far. I’ll be looking out for your videos.

    We’re expecting a little girl in 2 months and the way you present is so informative, relaxed, human and helpful. The way you interact with Wilson is so lovely to watch. Thank you.

      Hello there ☺️💓 I saw your comment from 2years ago and I was wondering if you had a baby since then? If this question is to personal, disregard. I'm genuinely curious. 💓 Hope you and your loved ones are happy and healthy. 💝

    Pregnant with my second, and due in November. Even though this will be my second child, this is such a good reminder of what that newborn stage is really like and I will definitely come back to this closer to my due date for a refresher. Thanks Jess!

    Ok this is BEYOND HELPFUL! Currently 31 weeks and absolutely clueless. This is so helpful to find a video that simply and easily describes how to do everything! Thank you!

    What a good baby! He reminds me of my boy, as long as he’s not hungry or tired he’s down to whatever 🤣

    Honestly you seem like one the sweetest and most positive people I’ve ever seen and you are so encouraging of others and it’s so beautiful and I love and admire you so much for it ❤️

    I so much prefer burping babies while they're leaning forward. Theyre less likely to wiggle and flail in my experience, and having them leaning slightly forward compresses their system a little and helps the air move

    Baby boy is due in April 2022 and your videos have been so helpful and soothing for a first time mother like me. You are the only momma you tuber who has said “congrats” and they make me cry every time lol
