Girl, I accepted that I can’t do it all. It truly is hard working full time and taking care of my daughter and house. You don’t really get a break and as as a mom we put too much pressure on ourselves. I completely agree mental health is so important. Glad to know I’m not alone with all these feelings.
Love these girl talk, I always feel like sitting with a friend/sister💝 Also thanks for talking about anxiety, my sisters nor parents understand the level, and think I'm exaggerating..
Thank you so so much for talking about mental health, I have been suffering from depression and anxiety for 15 years and on meds. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Yes do a breastfeeding video!! always love to hear another mama’s perspective. I weaned my son at 18 months and I thought it would be a lot harder than it was. I think gradual is best and he started sleeping through the night. But I have heard from other moms that even when there kid was weaned, still didn’t sleep through. But I def think weaning helps with that. Love the Q and A ‘sssssss
Can totally relate to the modest swimwear thing (i am a revert). For me it helps that I am usually around friends/family who are completely okay with my swimwear and don't care at all. I know they're having my back and that really helps me ignoring the stares.
Leena, I’m like you where I find that lasering is so painful but I also love the results. You NEED to get onto some numbing cream, at least for the Brazilian area! It’s been a god send for me, honestly lol. Just apply it to wherever you need it particularly the areas that you know it hurts you the most, cover with some cling film or something as a barrier and then wear your normal clothing. I make sure to apply it half an hour to an hour before the appointment and WOW. So much less of a miserable experience haha. Just make sure you wipe it off before you start.
Love these kinds of videos. I think it's important for women to realize that these kinds of discussions are 100% needed and ok! Thank you!! BTW, love your sweater, where did you get it?
Hey leena, hope you are doing well. You have inspired me so much as a young muslimah, showed me that the hijab does not limit your style prefrences and your beauty and I have just started wearing the hijab this Monday. Thank you soo much for everything!! God bless you and your while family😘😘😘
Aww this means so much to me to be able to help you on this journey in any way!! Congratulations and I’m so happy for you!! God bless you and your family as well! Thank you so much!!! 🥰🥰
I have really bad period pains that makes me lay on the floor crying. I realized that eating chocolate makes me feel better and I don’t know why. There is no reason for my body to love chocolate even in pain 😂 🍫 is key
The emotional roller coaster I can relate.. I also had a baby who nursed 5 times a night. I couldn’t even think about yoga or other self-care bc I was so exhausted that all I could do was sleep, which made my mental health situation worse. Hardest time of my life. You always look so well rested and beautiful mashallah, I admire you and I don’t have a clue how you are doing it. Thank you for sharing all your experiences. I am happy for you and your family and wish you all the best!
For the brazilian area laser, I apply aneasthetic cream like"EMLA" on the area one hour before the laser session and reapply it 10 minutes before, it works and make it million times more bearable.
Only at the start of the video but had to write this first mashalla allahumma barik laha you look so beautiful ☺ mental is soo important. Look after yourselves first if your cup is full that's how you can give energy to others.
I love this video, also honestly my mental health hasn’t been the best either and its hard for me…and I feel kinda depressed but I like how honest you are!!
Honestly these chatty videos make me love your personality even more than I already do, Leena🥰🥰🥰I agree with so many of your opinions on things and I learn something new and interesting each time….you’re like a virtual best friend to me 🙈♥️♥️♥️
Love your videos so much leena ❤️ I have so many similar feelings concerning depressive episodes about being a mum wife and also getting other things done.. I have a three year old son and just finished medical school in Germany and became a doctor this year and without my family’s help without my parents I couldn’t have made it because my husband also works so I’m thankful for everything alhamdullilah but taking care of myself has always seemed impossible for the last years and now I’m also trying to Focus on that because yeah we are Mums we are wifes but we are also humans and everyone deserve a little me time :) ❤️
I didn’t know your dad grew up in Kuwait! I also did making me a third culture kid. So fun to know that! My mom also drilled that concept of having backup too♥️ thank you so much for this video!
I recently became a new mum and have been exclusively breastfeeding my baby, but for the past few days I have seen a reduction in my milk supply, I know you have been breastfeeding Alaina since birth so I was wondering what foods you eat or if you could make a video for us breastfeeding mums to refer back to when we have these breastfeeding struggles
10:30 so true Leena. Alhamdulillah, been married for 3 years now and try my best and make sure for at least 4 days a week I great my hubby with sexiest outfits🤭 The appreciation I get is indescribable😍 Moreover, girls stop sleeping in them washed out,run down but "comfortable" pj's ...
If men can sleep in "comfortable" pjs, so can women. Comfortable doesn't mean gross or dirty. What an unfair thing to say to other women. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be comfortable and at the same time doing something sexier at other times.
@@84naners that's why it was in a " " to say that there is a difference between actual comfortable and run down...it's not to offend anyone just a friendly advice! And in last sentence you summed up my point😊🌸
Don’t do it all at home, make sure Omar does his fair share. It’s so unfair to you and it’s taking a major toll on your mental health. You will BOTH be happier if the work load is more equally distributed.
So many of us women struggle with this..it’s so easy to fall into the trap of having to do it all and be it all to be a good wife/mom. @withloveleena thank you for sharing about this
Exactly! She says we shouldn't "keep tabs" but that ends up being a trap where we end up doing it all...in many cases, if they aren't reminded or essentially taught that they have a role, they won't do it. You need to make sure that you divide the role equally, especially if you are both working and spending equally.
Hey Leena! You should do more behind the scenes bloopers I love it. You guys are hilarious. Also can you do some nursing videos I’m going into nursing and I just feel so overwhelmed sometimes.
@With Love, Leena I'm a revert and starting to dress more modestly trialling hijab and often watch your videos for inspiration as I love your style. I always appreciate any tips you have, would love more videos on different styles and how to adapt an outfit/ style to become more modest. Tia xx
Leena u really are the best u grab my attention to stuff I don’t really care about u influence me u are a hero u represent girl power “a great mom,wife,blogger and influencer love u to the moon and back ❤️😘😍
I just gave birth to a beautiful baby girl 3 months ago and lately I'm super anxious to go out with my baby. Part of it is that I'm not sure how to navigate breastfeeding outside, I'm the first one in my family to exclusively breastfeed. Would love to hear from you Leena how you do it ie do you pump and give bottle, what do you wear underneath your always gorgeous ootd, etc... Thx
Thank you Leena darling this is really helpful, I’ve been married for a year and trying for a baby now and this is great advice Masha’Allah. May Allah give you strength to cope with your problems ❤️
I definitely understand about iPad time and keeping them occupied, recently i've learned about Montessori teaching and I was wondering if you've ever heard about it or thought about it incase it might help you guys and help her with her motor skills. not at all trying to tell you to do it or bashing your parenting, because you're doing GREAT:)
can you tell tips for reducing nausea during periods? I get nauseous at everything, even the blood (I usually don't mind blood at all), and I hate it, it feels disgusting. It's probably normal, but do you have tips to make it better? As someone for whom medicine will not work (I just vomit it back up), can you suggest foods to eat that will reduce the urge to puke too? Also, for how long does the sock/handmade heating bag stay warm?
You look really beautiful in this video,glowing with radiance Maasha'Allah. I'd like to make a suggestion for future videos; if the editor could perhaps do less cuts in between. I don't mind a lengthy video but I don't like that while u are talking, it just cuts in between the whole time. I hope this was a helpful tip insha'Allah x
Hi leena, I enjoyed watching this video. Especially the part about moving with your husband and leaving ur family because it isn't talked about that much. love you
Does Alaina sleep in the crib. I have been trying to put my 13 months old in her crib, but she doesn't even wanna be there. So we're cosleeping, and she's breastfeeding at least 4 times at night. I get so tired 😫 😒
Does the salon have one of those lasers with continous laser that they move around an area for like 30 seconds? I found that to be easier than the single shot ones.
Yes laser hurts so bad!!! I have to take at least 400mg of ibuprofen before every session. It's worse than getting a tattoo/most piercings, and way way worse than waxing
Personally I always drink hot stuff throughout the day on the first day of period. Absolutely no cold stuff including juices . It works amazing. Hot tea ( of any kind ) and plain hot water . Literally drink them for the first few hours , keep sipping them and I will be okay !! Since I was 16, I discovered this and no longer suffer from cramp.
Definitively agree about screen time and thats my major concern for the next generation. Sisters we grew up not depending on screens and we need to think about the creative ways that our kids can see technology as a tool that they need to learn how to use and not a toy that they become addicted to. Like she said so many kids cant even engage or have a conversation subhanAllah!
Alhamdulillah. May Allah swt blesses u. And remember every baby step is a great step!! At the beginning everything seems a lot but do not pressure u. Enjoy the journey and try to do just a little tiny bit better everyday❤

You don’t really get a break and as as a mom we put too much pressure on ourselves. I completely agree mental health is so important. Glad to know I’m not alone with all these feelings.
Yes!! We definitely have to make it a top priority for ourselves and not put that pressure on ourselves!! You are absolutely not alone!! 💖💖
FINALLY a youtuber talking about mental health w/o being sponsored.
I talk about it too lol
I listen to quran when i sleep it helps so much , it keeps me calm and removes anxiety ❤️
Thank you for being so open and authentic always!! ❤️ I’m not a mother but I still love hearing about your updates/tips and overall experience lol
Love these girl talk, I always feel like sitting with a friend/sister💝 Also thanks for talking about anxiety, my sisters nor parents understand the level, and think I'm exaggerating..
I can relate.
It definitely needs to be discussed more and more!! I’m so glad you enjoy the videos!! Thank you so much!! 🥰💖

The fact that you like ASMR and Maria’s at that, woo!! I agree, it helps calm me down so much to listen/watch

I’m a big believer in manifesting your destiny. It’s great that you and Omar talk abt your dreams and plans for the future.
OMG, the way you speak is so nice and it is enjoyable to hear.
How can you talk so smoothly?
Yessss, Gentle Whispering is my fav ASMR too!! She was my first exposure to spoken ASMR vids. So glad she's back!
The emotional roller coaster I can relate..

Do a video about getting along with in-laws, I’m in the beginning stages and need some advice!it can be really tough sometimes..

Coconut is the best for the hair ,I use it with both my girls ,really holds their hair in place and makes it very manageable
I normally don’t comment, but your outfit is so beautiful
Would you mind telling us the name of the nail polish you are wearing, please. Looks nice! Thx
MashaAllah Leena, you're glowing 💜
ASMR is the best! Helps me sleep too.
MashaAllah you're just soo pretty !! Allahumma baarik!
And your personality is amazing
I love that you did another one of these!

I listen to ASMR to help me fall asleep too! 🙌🏽 it definitely helps so much 🤍
Lancôme La vie est Belle is amazing, it smells so good. I get a lot of compliments when I wear it. Also Si by Armani is the bomb too!
Love THIS! Thank you so much for opening up to us, I know it's hard to talk about with others.

You are just so beautiful Mashallah the way your speak is so elegant 🥰
