  • Hello! I have been dreading editing this pregnancy update video. I always prided myself in having two great parents who worked together in giving me the best childhood ever. Whether dad and I were together for ever or not, I really wanted that for my baby. I think every single mother really pushes for the dad to step up to the plate, regardless of the circumstances. I really want my baby to know he is loved by BOTH his parents and family. Because of the stonewalling, I never got an answer about the birth certificate and I was never going to get one. I tried everything I could to get him involved to some capacity. It's not going to happen.
    I don't know what's the right or wrong thing to do in this situation, but I think Dad will have a sense of relief. The birth certificate would have been the only thing keeping him connected to a child, he never wanted. This was the only thing I was asking for from him, it's not about the money or him participating, I just wanted my child to see both parents name on the certificate.
    Baby will still have his last name, and I will figure out how to explain the blank line on the certificate one day.

    Just wanted to send you a message of hope and encouragement. Always remember your so much more then you will ever know. Your one of a kind and special beyond measure. I myself have epilepsy on am have switched over to Keppra. It has been such a struggle but watching your videos before I made the change help me so much. Still the Dr's are working with me and I have a bit more to go but I am so grateful for your inspiration that you opened up your life to share with us about your struggles, especially the Keppra. Thank you for all your help even if you don't think people are watching or your alone, you are never ever alone. Stat strong and we will be in prayer for you and your journey. 🙏🏼

      I am really hoping your epilepsy improves somewhere down the line. I really do. I think about seizures a lot lately mostly because it’s been quiet for a bit too long for me. I feel lucky and relieved but also guilty because I know like yourself and many others, it’s an everyday struggle. I can’t stress it enough, how what we experience….it’s really hard to live with. We can’t just get rid of it. No cure. Thank you so much for opening up with me like that, and taking the time to write me an encouraging message when I think you need more encouragement than me with your own circumstances. I will continue to talk with about seizures and keppra, always. I just haven’t found the right way to show it or express my experience since my last video properly. Nonetheless, I want people to remember there is still more to us than our disease. It’s possible to live a life and not succumb to it, but it’s a draining and debilitating journey to getting to the part of “actually living”

    I was patiently waiting for another pregnancy update video. I enjoyed watching the video. From the time you said when you first felt your baby kick when you were with your dogs. Especially when you were celebrating Christmas with your family and friends and the presents they got for your baby. Thanks for sharing your pregnancy journey with us! Loved every moment of the video! 🥹

      Omg yes! That baby book has actually been following me around. I have also seen it at Target after I first read at Barnes and Nobles. I never read American Children books growing up but that book really touched me. I told myself, if I have a boy - I will buy him that book. 🥹🫶 thank you for watching 🥹🫶

    Do parents sign a birth certificate? I don't remember doing that. Plenty of single moms date and/or get married. If you choose to, you deserve to have someone who lifts you up, who is always there, rather than a roller coaster ride. You didn't destroy their family, would you want them around someone who did that to you? Right now, you need to heal & become someone you love. That is how your baby will learn to treat women in a living way. You're special. I hope you know that.

    • @PriscillaYoshida
      @PriscillaYoshida  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I believe they do, I asked about it when I was spoke to LA Family Services a while ago. Yeah, I hear single moms have a pretty easy time settling down. I……don’t want to settle down in that way. I have other goals in mind for myself.

      Geez 🥲 I was planning on crying tonight but thank you! I’m in the process of trying to become a women my child can be proud. I haven’t really figured out what that looks like yet. Lately…I have been wondering and I receiving Karma for something I did… or did I dodge a bullet. Thank you for always giving me really solid advice. Motherhood and parenting is something I still have many questions about and wonder what my future in this new role in life will look like.

    Hey lady, I hope you are doing well with your health. I was just curious, was there a reason you didn't want the baby to have your surname?

    • @PriscillaYoshida
      @PriscillaYoshida  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I am doing okay for the most part! Starting to have some complications but keeping high hopes I can make it to full term! Just being more careful! I never really thought too much of my last name. I feel a bit disconnected from it the last few years since my dad isnt around anymore. I don’t have him around that held me close to “him” and his family. I was hoping to separate my baby a bit from my dads last name/his family a bit too. I think I might carry a more traditional view on taking a fathers last name. I’m pretty sure I might end up hyphenating it. Just a Japanese-Korean last name together sounds odd with the name I have picked out for baby. You got me thinking!! I might reconsider by the third trimester. The name I have picked is Japanese so I was hoping to take the characters into consideration too. I put a lot of thought into the Kanji lol you raised a valid point!!

    Why would u give e her his last name now for the rest of her life she's going to walk around with the consistent reminder that she carries a name of a man and a family that didn't want her. You should give her yours so she knows she's wanted and yours..

    Sorry girl but u know that’s bullshit think 20 years from now u think u won’t crave love then you aren’t being honest with yourself. Everyone gets hurt but everyone also moves on just because u got heart broken doesn’t mean the world stops moving and whether you like it or not we move with the world, nothing stays the same forever

      I know where your coming from and I understand that but I gave/hinted at specific antidotes as to why I don’t want a step parent for my child. I experienced abused from my step parents and relatives for years so I rather not risk it with my own child. I never really stated I got my heart broken, the trust was broken. He knows what I mean when I say that. I think I went through a very specific situation and I can’t speak on it entirely so I’m doing it in the most round about way possible. Thanks for the advice🫶 what I was going through at this time wasn’t about a break up. Let me make that clear 😂 I would’ve said that if that was the case.

      @@PriscillaYoshidaAs someone who faced abuse as well at the hands of step parents, I believe if you are single taking care of your kid then just love and care for them. Kids of single parents are more likely to be abused because people sometimes target single parents to do nefarious things, nothing wrong with you wanting to keep baby girl safe
