Jenn, You are such a motivation to all your viewers. You are a woman with consistency and hard work. During all this time of your pregnancy period you did not fail to post videos for us even though it must be really tiring at times. Now it's almost time for the baby to come into this world so please take all the time and have a safe delivery. Sending you love and prayers...
Aww this comment is so sweet. I genuinely love creating videos so much that it doesn't even feel like work most of the time. However once our baby arrives, I'm definitely taking some time off from work to welcome this new chapter of my life. Thank you so much for watching and supporting this channel! It means the world to me. x
even beyond posting videos, jenn's been committed to the practices that pour into her (meditation, stretching, cooking, etc). i didn't realize how much that theme of consistency runs through all of these videos. i'm a virgo queen as well so tbh i'm not surprised 😌
Damn Jenn can't believe the baby's almost due, I remember crying when the news first broke out. So happy for you and Ben! ❤❤
Ahh I know! Any day now! x
i cried too! like so hard. i pray for the best for both Jenn and the baby💜
That last part at the end with you on the phone with your mom was so pure 🥺❤️ love you girl SO HAPPY FOR YOU A BEN AHHHH
Hahhaa, it turns out she CAN say Roman. x
its soooo crazy to see how far youve come from that first pregnancy video, overcoming the anxiety, taking concrete steps to put your health and joy first, and to see where you are now.. its incredible and im very proud
I can't believe it either. Pregnancy is a long introspective journey, so I definitely had enough time to process it all. (:
it's so cool to hear Jenn speak korean!! such a different energy , makes me wanna continue my study of the language,
looking forward to the baby coming and thank you Jenn for sharing with us this wonderful journey
I was thinking the same thing while listening to her convo with her mom!
Ah, was thinking the exact same thing!!❤️
i’m crying so much i remember when she was introducing ben to us 😢
I'm so impressed that you can work so much, post regularly and even exercise during this time. You're such a trooper Jen! Every upload I see from you, I get so happy ❤
omg the way Jenn was cradling Cheeki at the beginning 😍so precious!
She will always be our first born! T-T x
I can never imagine Jen ending TH-cam.
Jen is always so relatable, genuine, sooo REAL. She's my consciouness💞
I feel like I've grown up with you jenn, from college to you building your career, getting married, and starting your fam! I'm so happy for you and your family
Jenn I just want to say, thank you so much for sharing your process. I am 19 years old and I have never thought of pregnancy as something so beautiful, you made me emotional every time I saw your bigger belly and the way you took care of yourself and the baby has been so wonderful to see. I wish the best for your family and that little human.
It’s crazy to think that so many of us grew up with you! I see you as a big sister figure and my heart just EXPANDS with happiness when I think about your life and you becoming a mum!
I love the scene at the end when you’re talking to your mom, Ben is just looking at you so happily and listening to you speak Korean was neat! You are going to be such great parents I’m excited to watch your family grow!
Been here for two years and so many things have happened since then, especially the last 9 months - but now the biggest change is happening - me entering college, and you entering motherhood, I can’t wait to see what the future holds
Cheeki looking at Jenn like 🥺 when she’s talking about barking at kids. 😆❤️ so cute
The phonecall with your mom at the end was so wholesome 🥺 congrats to y'all! It's the final countdown!
it's almost timeeee! so proud of you and your growth this year. i'll be thinking about you in the coming weeks! can't wait to watch the video when he's finally here 💛 you ARE strong enough for this.
Eeep! I appreciate this message! xx
jenn, i feel like you've become even more precious, adorable and loveable during this journey!! hv been loving to watch you because you're just thriving and glowing, and also, you're genuinely still so gorgeous, if not even more :") also love how serious you were about your huge bagel HAHAH
You're so sweet! Ty for this commnet!
The moment of you talking to your mom on the phone was so beautiful to watch because just as that top comment said that you are a woman of consistency & hard work, we were able to see those characteristics truly shine by how much more fluent your Korean speaking was. I remember when you were dedicated to taking your Korean lessons and look at you now :) Wishing you and Ben a safe and joyous pregnancy ♥️
Omg I love how you thought about your mom when choosing the baby’s name! When my time comes to be preggo, I would also have to think of a name in English and Spanish so my family can say it comfortably 🙃 wishing you positive vibes through this last stretch!! 💕
Yess, the fam has got to be able to pronounce it! x
My Parents did a mash up of their names to make me and my siblings names. My older brother continued the trend with his kids too. It’s always fun to try and come up with names that is a mixture of you and your spouse. Like a form of what your unity created. Thanks for sharing!
Hey Jenn~
I have a 3 year old and i just remembered when watching your wipes haul.. I always recommend using water wipes during the first couple of months because they can develop rashes easily. Those are 99.9% water and its the most gentle wipes you can find in the market. They don’t sell it at costco but they do sell them on amazon and target!
Mom of a toddler here - I second the water wipes suggestion! Also just letting the baby have time out of the diaper just chillin naked helps prevent rashes so much! But yeah omg they pee and poop SO much at the beginning. That doesn't last forever even though it feels that way. Also - Desitin & Boudreaux's for the win. If the cream doesn't have Zinc Oxide get outta here!
Yes, those are the best water wipes, but just to let you know that box will probably last you a month or less! Lots of poop and pee diapers. Enjoy every minute of infant phase, they are so precious!
We cloth diaper part time and using reusable wipes is great. Just wet it with water and you’re good to go!
the fact that you guys take in consideration all aspects in your life (like, the way your family will pronounce the baby's name, and everyone should feel happy with the final decision..) idk but it fills my heart with joy. These vlogs are a true example of what unconditional love is, not only the way you love others, but the love you guys share as a couple.. truly an inspiration. Bc of couples like you my standards remain high, cuz I know this kind of love can still be found out there ♥
I LOVE the fact that you’re using a doula, and a POC at that! A silent subscriber since the very beginning, I’ve been watching your journey and have loved to see you grow through the years ❤️ you will be an amazing mom 🥰
Enjoying this while I can and expecting there to be a break until the next one. Good luck, Jen!!!
I’m at a stage of my life where I’m nowhere near thinking of getting married or starting a family, but Jenn really has me finishing all these vlogs 🤣 I’m so happy for you and Ben, you will both make wonderful parents!
My favorite part was when your mother was pronounced the name Roman. Thanks for taking us along wth your final stage of the pregnancy Jenn.
Jenn deciding on their son’s name is such a big moment and seriously Roman is such a sophisticated name!
jenn, a few days ago my cat went missing. this might sound weird, but your vlogs have made me feel a lot better. while i am sitting worried about the well-being of a loved family member, it has been peaceful for me to watch someone i have been following for so long welcome the joy of a new family member into their life. i am praying for a smooth birth and a happy and healthy jenn and baby while i pray for the return of my furry family member
It’s so special to see you from clothes encounters to having a baby, your videos make me tear up
I do need to add Jenn that once the water breaks the baby is more open for infection. Because now everything is “open” doing most of the labor at home is very smart. But also, if the hospital is far from you, please be aware of time, traffic and how you are feeling. I live in NYC and traffic is insane. I went into labor at night which was good because no traffic but, it was a very long trip 30 mins no traffic with contractions every 2-3 mins. Just be aware of everything.
Everything will be amazing!
Dang it! I always want these to be longer. My parents are Nigerian and watching you consider if ur parents would be able to pronounce
Baby’s name really stirred something up inside of me. I loved it.
The Costco membership is the cherry on top. I can't wait to see what this little human turns out to be!! I know they'll be so cared for and loved, sending my best wishes to you and your soon-to-be family!!
I love watching you jenn can’t believe it’s time for you to give birth, you and Ben are going to be the best parents 😭❤️
Why you guys are so pure and natural and simple and good.. I might sound exaggerating but seriously I never ever have loved TH-camrs like I love you guys .. love you so much .. please remain genuine and simple and natural and soothing couple as you are right now ..
I started watching your vlog a year ago, I remember telling a friend how I admire the respect as a couple you and ben have #relationshipgoals, and at the same time letting other people know that everything is a process and that you really have to work on it and yourself to reach that level of being grounded and intentional of the life that you want. I really love the feeling that you're including all of us here, on this milestone :) So excited for you and Ben :)
I'm sure Cheeki will love the baby, after she gets used to him she'll become super protective, like a big sister!
This vlog is so heart warming 💗 Loved the short call with Jenn's mom, it's so cuute!
Ok I’ve been following for years. And follow all your pregnancy makes me feel more comfortable about my own pregnancy. I mean I found out two months ago that I’m expecting. And my reaction was kinda the same as yours, cause was a big surprise for me and husband. But and again following your experience calms me down a lot. Now I’m so happy for my baby and of course I’m so happy about yours.
It’s so sweet how Ben And Jen worries that Umma couldn’t pronounce the baby’s name right ! And it’s even more sweetest knowing their baby name will be something she could pronounce 💖
oh my god i had to pause at the costco montage to comment. i don’t know why but that part just made me 🥺 and feel so single lmao ❤️ your love is so pure i can just see it in little everyday moments like that and it makes my heart just melts. i want a love like that someday you guys give me hope honestly. it’s been wild seeing you grow from your college days to now about to be first time parents!!! so excited to embark on this journey with you and Ben you guys will be amazing parents there’s no doubt in my mind!
I love your vlogs so much! They are such a vibe and your mindset is so inspiring 🧡 Lots of love from Germany!
Aww thank you! I'm glad you enjoy these videos! x
@@imjennim 🤍🤍🤍
Jenn..... I'm really happy for you... I have seen your videos like 3-4 years but this moment.. it is the most exciting and overwhelming moment for me!!
How can your timing always be so perfect?! 😭 my day has been made. Thank you for posting. Wishing you the bestest days ahead jenn 🥺💜 I love you and your channel, you have inspired me in sooo many ways
from ur what i eat in a day videos to book recommendation videos to ur pregnancy journey wow jenn im so happy for u!
I'm so excited to hear which name you guys picked. The best of luck!
Best of luck Jenn xx, we’ve got your back!! You’ll be a great mum💛
YAYYY HE'S ALMOST HERE!!!!
i am honestly so incredibly happy for you guys, you're going to be wonderful parents! ive only been watching for a few years now, but getting to see you on this incredible journey to motherhood has been really heartwarming, huge congrats and wishing for a healthy and happy family when he arrives!
Good luck on your last stretch! Enjoy it, squeeze in lots of rest and naps while you can! You and Ben are going to be such amazing inspiring parents for your child. Can't wait for updates
Hi Jenn! I am pregnant as well and I’m due next Wednesday! You guys must be so excited. We also went to Costco to stock up on frozen goods and easy to make dinners for the first weeks of postpartum. Definitely don’t want to think about what to cook during those days. Anyways, wish you the best on your delivery day!
Ahh crazy to think how close our due dates are!! Glad you're prepping too with the meals early on. Wishing you a safe delivery too! x
You are such an inspiration, Jenn. You continue your self-care routines throughout your whole pregnancy whilst glowing, smiling, and projecting positivity to the community.
Quite random, but those Depends underwear are a great option for postpartum recovery. My doula highly recommended it. They’re more comfortable than the mesh panties you’ll get at the hospital, you don’t need to add a pad in them, and if you stick it in the freezer, it acts like an ice pack for the perineal, which feels so soothing and helps with perineal pains from any tears. I recommend it. 😁💜 Luv you!
Good luck pushing out little champ, Jenn! Congratulations in advance! So thrilled for you, Ben, Cheeki, and the eager grandparents! Praying for a safe and smooth delivery. 💕
I love you this period has flown by, you handled everything with such grace 💕
You guys radiate such joy when you are together. I love it!!
My mom had my eight siblings and me at home, and everything went really easily (obv not everyone's experience ik). One thing she tells future moms is to keep in mind that the people around you can actually stop your labor - her parents being there made it really stressful and her labor completely stopped so it was just a lot of pain for two days. when her parents left, the baby came in just a few hours. The next baby, mom told her parents not to come and everything was so much easier. It's your body, your baby, your birth, your decision, don't be afraid to kick people out who are making you stressed, upset, angry, worried, etc.
My mom is a labor and delivery nurse. Before I took my baby home, my parents brought the baby blanket that my son was wrapped around in and brought it home and had the dogs smell it to recognize the baby's smell. You may want to try it.
But overall I am so happy and excited for the baby's arrival! Enjoy every moment with him!
Trust me, motherhood is its own adventure. You are going to discover a deeper love that you probably did not imagine before. God Bless you and may you have a safe delivery.
Watching your videos always makes me so happy. Me and my husband like to sit down and watch your and Ben’s videos. You two just seem like the kindest people. I can’t wait for the babies arrival and hear the name you chose!
jennnnn what the heck has it already been 9 months??? it can't possibly BE. anyway, we're all so excited for you and ben. this next chapter is gonna be so so good for yall, i can feel it. should you choose to show us any part of that journey (or not!!!), we'll be rooting yall on from the sides!
I love watching your vlogs! It's so refreshing to hear Jenn speaking Korean! So cutee! I hope you have a safe delivery!🥰
Hahaha, my Korean is so rudimentary. Thank you though! xx
Wow, I've never been this early. I love your videos Jenn, they're easily the ones I get the most excited to watch. Also, you're KILLING this pregnancy. You got this!!! :)
Ty Riley! x
Awww mama knew how to say it right away, congratulations y’all 💙💙💙
Making sure your parents can easily pronounce your baby's name is so thoughtful and sweet of you.
Jenn, seeing your growth during your pregnancy is so beautiful. There is just a sense of calmness about you now ❤️ you'll do great as a mom! And also I loved the phone call with your mom it was so sweet ❤️
Your dog 🐶 is cute and he will love having anyone member of the family around
She's gonna have to get used to it! LOL!
Wow Jenn, you,, Ben and your baby have come a long way, especially you. You’ve already shown on these videos how to become a responsible mom for you and your baby’s health for being productive and doing all the necessary steps of being pregnant. You have such a great balance of where your time goes on a day. Where you can still rest, relax, exercise, cook meals, meditate and everything else. I’m so excited for your baby to come out but also will be praying for your safe and successful delivery first. I just started watching your videos a few months before you got pregnant, and I felt like you have so much empathy and so relatable to a lot of us. God bless you and your growing family.
P.S. Your Korean is so cute, I completely forgot you can speak straight korean. Anyways, I kinda understand some since I watch a lot of korean dramas.😅
I chuckled when you commented that the wipes will last you a while 😅🥰 if only! I’m so excited to watch you guys become parents, you both radiate such beautiful energy. 💕
I don't know why I am so shocked lol This is the first time I have ever head you speak Korean. I love it! My husband and I plan to have a baby once we buy our home and my Korean is so-so. At least the baby can learn from dad, but I would have love to speak at a fluent level and help my baby when it is just us. Your mom sounds so pleasant as well. I like her voice. She reminds me of my mother-in-law. I'm just watching your older videos because I've never seen some of them and they are popping up on my TH-cam home. You are such a great mother. Love this family :)
Yay my toothpaste is same as Jenn! 😂 how thoughtful of u to call your mum and ask if she had difficulty to pronounce the name 🥰
omg wtf that chicken bake is giant!!!!! in australia they are about half the length i'm constantly surprised at america's portion sizes hahaha. excited for this new phase in your life jenn been following you for 10 years and i'm happy you've found happiness!
I can’t believe we’ll be meeting the new guest in the next vlog 💘✨ All the very best for your new chapter Jenn ❣️ Love always :)
jenn, thank you so much for your content(s). really. i've been watching all of your videos since you are in uni and then right now i am graduating from uni and you are gonna be a mom. i feel so emotional looking at this video that feels like watching my older sister growing and growing everyday to a better version of her. i feel so motivated by your everyday activities and your excitement about the unknown in life. thank you for always accompanying us through times, even tho i'm rarely drop down my comment, i'm here watching and like your videos, and even contents from your instgram. cheers for days ahead becoming a mom, Jenn. thank you for preparing and trying hard to understand your new situation which gave us new information and insight to about any little details about life and about being a future mom. thank you for everything, can't wait to see a little version of you and Ben. cheeki gonna be a big sis and i'm here cheering for you, Jennifer Im. thank you and good luck, Im Dohee
After the baby comes don’t feel pressured to post vlogs for us! Remember to take care of yourself and the baby 🥺❤️
It feels like it was only yesterday you announced your pregnancy and now you’re so close to the end of it! It’s been such a pleasure watching these videos. I hope I’ll be on this journey myself next year, so watching your videos was so inspiring and motivating. 💖 You’re amazing, Jenn!
Jenn: excitedly “omg... Ben, jenn, Ro-man??!!!! Yeah!!?”
Ben: “uh.... yeah! 😅”
LMAOOOO
LOLOL! His enthusiasm didn't match mine!
Aww, so touching that you consider your mom when naming your baby.
Hi Jenn, have been watching you and Ben for years now and it’s overwhelmingly joyful to see both of you come such a long way and cheeky being an older sister. So much love and strength to you and Ben. Take rest and good luck to you both for your new chapter in life. You are amazing, beautiful and an empowering women. I wish to be like you at your age. Love from India muaaahhhhh....
It’s so cool to hear about you speaking Korean, and hope you take care of yourself, big love from Taiwan 🇹🇼
Yay my nephew's name is Roman too.He was born in May of this year.
I'm pregnant with my first child and we've named him Sebastian.He's due in October.
Seems like everyone is having a boy this year.
Can't wait to see our babies and best wishes on your delivery😀
I just had my first in June and we named him Sebastian Alexander! And it does seem like everyone is having a boy! Congrats on your boy coming soon!
Love the cousin combination of Roman & Sebastian! They're such great names
Last year seemed like the year of GIRLS. Including having mine. Now so many BOYS. Congrats y’all!
Hey Jenn 😊 - Where has the time gone? I can't believe the time has basically come for when the little one arrives. This year feels surreal for many reasons and we are closer to 2022 than 2020 😯.
Cheeki is adorable and I am sure she will adapt well and be quite protective of the baby 🐩
I really enjoy when you feature in interviews/podcasts etc, you give so much value, looking forward to listening to this one (if is available)
Lol you will be surprised how quickly you will get through those wipes 🤣
You both will definitely know what name feels right when you see him, even if you have chosen something beforehand 🤱🏻
Seeing this video has given me a craving for 'good ol fish 'n' chips'🍟🐟 or is it that I am just hungry lol
As always, sending you lots of Love and stay safe and well 💖👑🤰🏻
It’s quite fun to follow you and Zoella at the same time experiencing things differently in the same time frame !!
omg hi jean I love your videos, I just graduated high school and you inspire me to get my stuff done
jenn*
Such a strong person you are Jenn! You inspire us so much! 🌹
Thank you for making such videos for your audience Jen, especially while you have to juggle doing them being a to-be mom. I just wanna say how these videos you are making with hardwork actually positively influence and educate your viewers. You give me a snippet into adulthood. Entering adulthood can feel pretty daunting (although I'm not getting married/having a baby). But after my graduation, I tend to ask myself what's next. Personally & ideally, it would be to start thinking about settling down and your videos give me a nice vision and somewhat makes me feel comfortable on what may otherwise seem daunting. So I really appreciate you being there, just like an older sister. Sending so much love and best wishes ❤ Blessed to have chanced upon you and your channel this year ♡
It's so sweet that when you picked the name you wanted to make sure your parents could pronounce them! I am Chinese and my husband is American. We are expecting a baby in 6 months so I've also been thinking about names! I've been loving all your pregnancy videos!!
I am so so so so so excited for Jenn and Ben 😭🥺
I'm so happy and so excited for you. Wishing you a safe and smooth delivery!
I was in labour for 72 hours, I got the epidural and that was pefect for me! From feeling so much pain and suddenly not feeling almost anything, just gave me so much better birth exsperience. So dont be afraid of taking pain relief :)
Just discovered this channel and your videos bring me so much peace I can’t even explain
In the first few months we loved pampers aqua pure wipes. First few weeks we used the water wipes but loved the pampers aqua pure ones a tiny bit better. Both of those were much gentler on baby's bum with minimal ingredients. Then as baby got older and their dirty diapers were changing, we switched between costco's kirkland brand, hello bello, and honest wipes.
Another tip that was passed to us after our little one had a diaper rash. After a dirty diaper (#2), we wipe baby down then give baby a quick rinse with just water and dry baby off. Never had a diaper rash ever again and never had to purchase diaper rash cream.
Also don't buy diapers in bulk yet... every child is so different so you'll have to find the one that is fitting for baby with no leaks, etc. Then once you find the right diapers its ok to stock up. You'll see babies go through diapers and wipes like nothing!
So happy seeing you at this stage about to enter parenthood :)
the roman part got meeeeee SO CUTE with your mom! Also your Korean is so great & natural, are you still taking lessons??! So sooo happy for you and Ben !!
So good to hear a Brazilian song in your vlogs 🥲🤍 xx from Brasil 🤍
Jenn and Ben at Costco is by far the cutest thing in the world!
Aw Jenn, sending you love and chill vibes for your upcoming labor and delivery ❤ you and Ben will do great and take as much time as you need once baby arrives!
Jenn, I love you SO much and have loved watching you and Ben go through the pregnancy journey together. BUT, if your water breaks, PLEASE go to the hospital as soon as you can. Waiting at home to labor until the last minute can increase your (and baby's) risk for infection if your water has broken. I send this out of love as an RN
Picking a name is so difficult especially when your parents can't say it! My mom can't say Khloe so she says clothing. Madison becomes medicine. Nicolas becomes a necklace. The list goes on. It's a good thing you've checked in with your mom. Jenn, you got this! You will be an amazing mother.
Thank you for allowing us to a be a part of this beautiful journey! Can't wait for the new baby boy and Cheeki to meet her new baby brother!
Ugggh that convo with your mom 🥺 sooo cute!
i'm sooo excited for the big new chapter of you guys' life!! omg i'm so excitedd. it was so cute to hear jenn speak korean for a longer amount of time wowww..
Hey Jenn❤️ ive been told that putting the baby car seat in the middle is much much safer for the baby in case there’s an accident because the driver’s seat won’t smash the baby seat, also it’s safer for side crashes as well!! I hope this is helpful if you didn’t know about it❤️
