      Shape wear when you are pregnant is amazing. I am two weeks postpartum. I did not use it with our first. This time around with our daughter, I am so happy I used it. As the belly grows you feel the support on your back, under your belly, inner thighs etc.

      Mrs Midwest Me too! I did my PhD too and after finding this channel I feel that I can sort of “get out of the closet” and be the woman I am. My identity is not longer tied to be a scientist and a career-oriented woman. I realized that it is something that I do as I have the preparation and I have been blessed by having the opportunity to do posgraduate studies but is not who I am neither the center of my life. I realize that is ok to enjoy of the things I have always liked to do such as cleaning, decorating, singing and taking care of myself. I constantly felt that taking care of my outside appearance did not fit with my career and a couple of times I had been judged as someone less competent because of that. Although most people don’t talk about this, very often, acquiring a high academic degree demands to neglect yourself (even your health) and your family. Perhaps is achievable to find balance between being a feminine woman and a career-oriented woman, but I think is very difficult and there will always something that we may need to trade off.

We women, need to be more honest with ourselves and determine what really bring fulfillment to our lives (it could be professional achievements or a family).

    This is just so beautiful like I feel at peace knowing that there are women that do embrace their femininity. Im a young girl who wants to become a mother and stay at home but I constantly have this on and off battle with my parents who keep preaching that I "need to go to college" and that I need to be more "masculine" considering how much our society keeps enforcing those ideas. This video made me teary eyed at how happy you are. I've been subscribed to your channel for awhile and thank goodness I had because I felt like I could learn more about who I am by watching these videos.

      @MrsMidwest  4 ปีที่แล้ว +114

      I am so happy you are finding a place here! It’s difficult to stand up for your beliefs and desires at a young age. I have found the best thing to do is to just let people see you thrive while living life your own way. The good news is that you can still embrace your femininity, no matter what your future holds: career, college, or staying home. It will all be okay :)

      Maybe you could go to college for something like teaching or creative writing! I have loved my university experience even though it can sometimes be hard when I'm not interested in an extremely 'onwards-and-upwards' type of career . That being said, though, I have heaps of gorgeous feminine friends who are studying hard for careers in science! So if that's where your strengths lie, there's no shame in doing that.

    All my great grandmothers were homemakers but also incredibly talented with their artistic passions. My great grandma on my dads side was an award winning painter and my great grandma on my moms side, who I grew up with, was an award winning quilter. And my moms mom was a published poet.
    Ladies don’t treat your artistic interests as just ways to pass the time after necessary chores, cultivate your skills to the fullest as a way of practicing your own authenticity. Art, music, writing, sewing, knitting, weaving, even lace making. These are all valuable skills, they’ve been used to preserve cultures and pass down their stories to new generations for millennia. So use them to tell your story so that your own great great grandchildren may have the blessing of knowing you
    Caitlin, your painting skills are very good, please do some original pieces in the future. I’m sure your descendants will cherish them as much as I cherish my great grandmas 💜

Prepping for the exam has taken my life and turned it upside down. Life is so stressful right now, especially compared to my favorite job--homemaking. Walking 3-5 miles a day has kept me sane!

      E Z I actually totally respect your opinions. I feel like people can twist and prod at anything to make it seem dark and evil. Many people’s argument against halloween is that it stems from paganism. What they don’t know is that many Christmas traditions also originate from paganism and their culture and way of living as well as witchery. As I am sure you know, Christmas isn’t bad! It’s amazing! If we, ourselves, have good intentions and keep the Holy Spirit with us in what we do, we can be protected and feel God’s Mercy through our innocence and intent. If you do not feel that halloween is a good thing, I respect and understand that, but, I hope you in turn will respect that halloween for me is literally only about dressing up and getting candy as well as spreading joy to children through the memories of halloween night trick or treating. You are a beautiful soul, love. 💕

    I think it is important that you show this life. When both spouses work, there is a lot of hiring of other people to fill these roles. There is a lot of take out meals, hiring a cleaning lady or just not cleaning at all, and then daycare when kids come along. I like that you show that being a housewife is not just drudgery but it is a creative process and a gift to the most important people in our life. Also, house cleaning is good exercise!

    • @daniellengarcia
      @daniellengarcia 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      JM Cast Although I understand your point but it’s important to remember that everything is a chemical. I literally mean everything exists as a chemical compound or element, but most things that we are accustomed to seeing often have a common name. And just because something is “natural” doesn’t inherently make it safe. Be careful of fragrances, especially in the form of essential oils like Frankincense or Peppermint, for instance. They can be sensitizing to adults but especially babies.

    I know I'm a little late to the party, but I was actually saving your new video until I have the time to sit down and have a proper experience of it, it always feels like chatting with an older sister. Recently your videos have helped with my ever-present at the back of my mind fear of being pregnant, I'm so glad you're doing well. Also, I totally agree that having a pet as a part of the family is a blessing. My kitten has needs every morning, so I find myself getting up reliably in the morning to fill his food and water bowls, and clean out his toilet and spend some time with him. He contributed to my mental well-being more than my therapist, and I smile whenever you show Harley because I recognise these feelings.

      This is so true. I love these videos, they are so inspirational and make me smile but at the same time they make me sad. Because I don't know if I can ever afford to live this way. I wanted to become a homemaker when I was 18-19 but due to general pressure I went to the university. Now with all the student loans etc, being a stay-at-home wife seems very far away. I wish I could make this choice again and actually listen to my heart and choose the path that I really wanted.

      This is very true. But in some situations it's also because some people just want to always buy nice things and do so much. They can't afford this lifestyle with only one income, I believe if they lived more frugally, then being a homemaker would be more realistic.

      They don't like women who are more traditional and don't hate themselves and are following the traditional Christian life/morals/values etc. it's that simple, plus it's European traditional (e.g. my friends who are devout Christian Philippine, Ghanaian or other religions like Muslim Arab or Pakistani etc. and it's slightly different cultures, styles ... so obviously here it's more generic European, I guess western European as I'm Slavic and it's more similar than non European but a little more distinct from the western European countries, who are all still very unique, but because North America was settled by Europeans of all backgrounds it's more of a generic pan European feel).
