- Our baby is 1 week old and this time around things have been wayyyy easier than they were with Eloise. Here are some of the tips I have for caring for a newborn baby. These are the things I wish I knew when I had my first baby. I hope they are helpful for you!
I have added links to products on Amazon that may make your first week as a new mom a little easier to manage! I'm not partial to any of these brands but I'm putting things I like so even if you end up with a similar product but different brand I feel like it would still help :)

I wish you a healthy pregnancy
Congrats 🎉💗
Awesome
Annie Skywalker congrats!!!❤️
I am a first time mom. She is 2 month old now. One of the bad things about postpartum apart from the sleep deprivation and the exhaution is all the unwanted and frankly unhelpful advice.I was so nervous and underconfident that I listened and followed a lot of crappy advice. They made it worse. When I finally took charge the situation got much better quickly. Mamas listen to others but do what you feel is right.
💗💗💗💗
Its the best! How are you doing? I feel like months 3-5 were the hardest for me.
@@PrettyBalanced I am doing good , thank you. She is 4 months old now. Was sleeping pretty well ,now suddenly it is bad.I guess it is the 4 month sleep regression thing.Postpartum was still worse because even though technically it was less work then as baby slept most of the time and now you have to be there like 24/7 , but atleast I am confident of what needs to be done.I sleep when the baby sleeps, dont worry about chores and remain relaxed. Also its only me and DH.The first two months I was a mess.
@@PrettyBalanced I am curious as to why did you find it hard?
Manjira Chakrabarti DONT ever be worried it’s your baby and it comes to moms naturally what there baby needs I’m due next with my third baby and I know I will get lots of advice from different nurses and midwifes but when I’m home with my baby it’s all up to me to make my baby feel comfortable loved and cared for in time things will smooth it self out always listen to ur instinct I guess ur mommy instinct everything will be fine as long as ur baby is fed and clean and loved and cherished and u can make her stop crying when u feel like she’s fussing to much is all it matters other wise obviously if u feel like she needs medical attention then u will know that too 💓💕💓💕💓 just don’t worry it’s no point
Tip for new moms: for the first week or so out of the hospital, scratch the undies completely and get yourself some adult diapers. They're not bulky, they catch the blood well and don't shift all around. No more waking up with ruined sheets bc your pad shifted out of place! Also, they never leak! Well, I've never had one leak and used this trick many times. If you're having a lot of pain in your nether regions after giving birth, take a couple of those diapers, dampen the crotch just a little (spray bottle works good) and smear a little aloe vera gel on there too, n pop it in the freezer. Voila! Padcicle for soothing and healing! Well... diapercicle lol, you get the point!
Agree on adult diapers
Hello! I'm Adrian my fience is 3 moth pregnant. Thanks God. To be honest I didn't want no baby's ,relative love ones. I dices this when I turn 23. Now all change my fience is 27 I'm 36 I'm watching videos about all questions I have. Cause ultrasound personal , midwife do not teach a first time male how to treat a baby. This video is so helpful. I read the comments. Cause mom's knows. Thank you.
Definitely I had to screenshot this!
I’m on Day 11 postpartum and completely agree!
Thank you for this!
My wife is due in 6 months. This is great, but when is Sean going to come on and give me some tips for new dads?
Yes! I think my hubby would like that!
Oooh yes, my husband would love that. Good initiative!
I'll help you there :) Feed your wife and help her nap. Foot rubs go a long way there!
Hope all went well brother.
@@Exhumed2 Day 7. Still figuring it out. The number of bottles and bottle-related items is insane.
I remember watching this video about three years ago longing for the day that I would have a baby of my own... now I'm 18 weeks pregnant.. god is good..
I'm in the longing phase like you once were! Still hoping, xoxo
I'm at the longing stage too 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I am in the hospital right now about to give birth to my first baby!
Chloe Laylane congrats
Ah congrats!!!! how are you doing?
CONGRATS!!!
You were in the hospital, and spent your time on youtube?
@@priya30081 if you have a long labor or aren't dilating quick enough, etc. you have a lot of downtime. It's not some wild rush in most cases.
I’m 37 weeks today, unfortunately a single mum so I can’t use that first tip but I’m hoping the rest will be helpful!
UPDATE: He came on 1 October, 3,7kgs.
how you doin?
krbcrwlr he’s 8 days old now and the pacifier advice has been very helpful, not worrying about how I look as well.
@@KidrauhlLuva4Eva I hope everything is going well with you. I really admire single mothers they are very very brave and caring as well.
6months prego single mom here as well. What did you do about feeding him in the night? Did you have to like always wake up?
It’s not unfortunate! It’s a blessing. You’ve got this xxx
Just delivered my baby 6 hours ago! So scared as a new mom. Worth every second though. ❤️❤️❤️ thank you for all the tips.
You got this! Hang in there. Set boundaries if you need to and don't feel bad for doing what's best for you and baby.
Congratulations 🎈. I am Pregnant mom 42 weeks tomorrow she is do Valentines but my belly is feeling feels like she is turning while she is turning I feel it almost feels like you’re stomach growlingbut I have hi to check my baby schedule he able to check on Alexia s schedule when she is Do
I'm an unmarried non pregnant undergrad student. And I have no idea what I'm doing here! But seriously tho- pregnant women, newborn babies and new mothers are soooo cute!!! Whenever I see them around I just wanna hug them tight and wrap them in blankets, marshmallows and plushies! To all the moms and future moms out there- I love you all sooo much!!!
Oh my God- am I gonna be a dad? Are we expecting?!!! Babe should I get the kits ready? Wait what are the kits? Are we gonna need kits? How far along are you? How about I tell our parents to do the shopping? Don't worry about marriage. We can take our time to leisurely give birth to this baby and then think about getting married. Want me to buy anything? I'm on my way to Starbucks so if you're craving something let me know. Oh and what about the name? There's so much we need to talk about I'm coming over right now
@@angiesjerry5981 wtf Jerry I'm NOT pregnant!
My husband did a bottle feed at 6 am while I slept. You are SO right. It made life SO MUCH BETTER. I did not learn until my 2nd time around either.
Starry Night Stronghold Do you need to warm up the bottle for the baby？
@@tinybooboopaw4116 we did warm up her bottles. 14-15 seconds in the microwave. They say dont use the microwave because it can make hot spots but if you shake the milk after you put on the lid.. there are no hot spots. bottle warmers are a needless expense. We only make it warm, too NOT HOT.
Starry Night Stronghold thanks！
@@BrynjaLives thank you!
Thats sich a good idea. man I didn't give a bottle to barley!
"So try and be Spanish and learn how to nurse in public"
You are SO unintentionally funny... I'm half Spanish and I was blown away by the stigma around nursing in the U.S.A. I couldn't understand why some would say "ew" to seeing a mom nurse; in my family, it's all you do, and if you don't, you're actually chided for bypassing the more inexpensive and nutrition dense option of breastfeeding...
It's so annoying to hear negative opinions about breastfeeding in public! I will say, it's mainly insecure women with these opinions (from what I've noticed, at least). It's natural, beautiful and just an overall part of life. If the mother feels uncomfortable, it's understandable why she'd want to breastfeed privately but with all the bashing, I wouldn't blame her for feeling that way. I'm due in 2 months with my first child (baby girl), so maybe I should consider moving to Spain. 😂🇪🇸
In India also I grew up watching other women breastfeeding in public and nobody misbehaved with them.
I noticed my generation and younger are more open to it, but it's the older generation that has a problem! It's so frustrating!
Aury Zemla yesssss! Your family has the right attitude. Thank youuuu
I grew up in the US but within a more alternative community where breastfeeding was the norm, there was always someone with a breast out nursing. I didn’t even realize the stigma until the Internet.... fast forward to now, I’m 32 and about to have my first in January. Def planning to bf! Shamelessly.
Hoping everyone has a safe and easy pregnancy and may you all be blessed with healthy, quiet, hungry babies ❤️ I’m six months and I’m having a beautiful first pregnancy, apart from the trapped gas of course 😂
How’s ur bubba
Why didn’t I realize that you were nursing until halfway through the video? So cool and really hits home your point that nursing is normal!
you were nursing so casually in the opening that it took me a hot minute to even realize! What a way to practice what you preach! Thanks for your advice. I’m 8 months pregnant with my first and your easygoing nature and simplicity was refreshing and helpful.
Same I didn’t notice until the 11 minute mark
Great advice!!!
Nipple confusion is not usually a problem if you start right away with a pacifier only for short term soothing or give a bottle. Mom's please, please if breastfeeding, do as she advises, pump and let someone else give an early morning bottle. You get much needed sleep, partner gets to help and baby is used to a bottle when/if you have to return to work.
Kim so I have a question about this. If my baby slept longer than usual, I would get very engorged and leaking everywhere. It was super painful. Would skipping a feeding cause this issue too?
Isn't it? Its so hard to know.
@@PEEWHENYOUNEEDTO oh really
@@PEEWHENYOUNEEDTO I know what you are talking about it happened to me with first son. I never bottle fed him until he was 6 months old. I was home on maternity and vacation for a total of 7 months. I would pick him up and feed him when it gets too painful.
Lashawndla Bailey-Miller I did that as well because it hurt so much and I know it’s all supply and demand and since his “sleeping in” wasn’t consistent, I was afraid it would diminish my supply to skip and feeding
I'm 23 years old, 36 weeks with my first and feel like i can't get enough information. Hearing you say that not all advice is good advice is really helpful
You've got this mama. I'm five years postpartum and I can tell you that the only way to survive motherhood is to take it one day at a time. I still have to remember that to this day. As a mom, you are constantly having to make decisions on how to parent. If you realize that the decision you made wasn't the best, you pivot, learn from it and keep on truckin'.
Congrats Momma! Hope everything's going well!
Due in November with my first baby boy ❤ .. need prayers. Really confused and afraid about labour pains ... best of luck for all those future mommies 🥰
Same!
@@PurpleIris1 aww god bless u and best wishes ahead xx
Feels like period pains at first. Research hypnobirthing. Good luck mama
@@xxGuItArGiRLxx89 periods pain really? 😭 thnQ hun x
@@sumbalschannel7410 light period pains at first. Then they get stronger. You were built to give birth. Listen to your body it tells you what to do and when to push.
Not pregnant, or have any children... I'm here taking notes tho LMAO!
Jovanka Smiljanic-Jazic you are hilarious!
And there's nothing wrong with having a kid either cuz everybody was little and small mom's group birthdays love precious gift from God
Same!
New moms out there! You are not alone. Being a first time mom comes with some anxieties! Don't be hard in yourself you got this!!
Two small feedbacks, just practical from a viewers perspective. 1. Backround music is disturbing, i'd love to just hear your voice on the subject :) 2. I love that you included text in your videos for the visuals, it's perfect for remembering your tips!
Or maybe something way quieter and more ambient.
Might be disturbing for you only :) for me, it works!
Totally agree. It takes away from her calm demeanour. At least turn it out. Hard to hear her competing with the music
@Sandra Of course its her personal opinion. That's what feedback is
@Sandra duh its her personal opinion. That's what feedback is
This is the most down to earth, helpful, and encouraging video on this topic I have seen yet. Thank you! Congrats on your precious son.
You’re so sweet! I’m glad that I can make a video that helps people, especially new moms in those first couple of weeks :) Thank you so much for watching!
YES! I love her calming and encouraging nature.
So happy to see all these dads doing “research” like me. Ughhh. I’m just trying to do it right. Thanks moms for posting up. We kinda suck at that. (Generally)
I'm 11 with two sister and my mum just had my baby sister ik watching this so I can be the best sister possible
🥺🥺🥺
The way she nursed with ease gives me hope that I’ll learn! Expecting my first in July 2020 💕
Me too first time in July ... happy 5 months
Skittlez Reinbow awww me too! Baby due July and my birthday is in July 🥰😍🎊🎉
Me too I'm expecting a boy it's also my first child I'm due july22,2020
I’m due in July too. All the best with yours x
Have you given birth yet?
I’m due in 19 days with my baby boy 😩 wish me this best 🙌🏽
Good luck!
Aww congrats . Praying for a safe delivery and healthy baby for you
And I'm due in a week...I'm so nervous
@@nqobilemchunu8654 Good luck to you! Sleep now while you can (even though you're probably uncomfortable being so far along).
Hope you had a happy and healthy baby, all the best XX
Just found out I am 5 weeks pregnant. I’ll be a single mom unfortunately because the dad has no interest in being there. But I’m super excited and thank you for this video ❤️❤️
Congratulations.
Congratulations momma! God bless you you'll be a great mom stay strong
Congratulation. You will be a great mom
Congratulations! Reach out to other moms and those you trust. Just because you’re going to be a single parent does not mean you’re doing it alone. Just remember it is ok to ask for help sometimes. I would definitely suggest a doula, both labor and postpartum, if you are able to get one then it would really help. Not just because you are a single mom, but from what you wrote it seems like a first time mom. Unless you have a very supportive friend or family that has been through birth and babies before.
You will be a wonderful mom, always trust your instincts. And if a doula is not for you that’s cool too, just a suggestion.
Wishing you all the best, it’s a hard journey even with a partner. I hope you have a good support network cheering you on. You are amazing!!!
I’m due February 2020 with my third❤️🙏🏼praying for a healthy strong happy baby and congratulations to all the mommas and soon to be mommas
Awesome! I'm also due in Feb with my first! 🤩 Good luck!
Same here!!!
Aww me too 💗
May 2020 with my first
Also in February 2020 with my first 🤗❤️
I’m due in August, excited for my first baby
B oom me too!! I hope you have a safe and wonderful delivery💕
Me too 💕
God bless you & your baby.. pray you have a safe & healthy delivery
I hope you have a safe delivery ❤️❤️
Me too, August 1st!!
I am 10 weeks pregnant with my rainbow baby! We are so excited and scared at the same time. My mother passed away some years ago and I always thought I would be able to go to her for advice and info once I have a child. Videos like these are so comforting and really help me to feel more knowledgeable going into motherhood. Thank you for sharing!!
What is a rainbow baby - may i ask
@@chillizora a pregnancy after a miscarriage (rainbow after the storm)
Best tip you could ever get is to start good sleep habits from the start. Baby never sleeps in arms, always in their own sleep space. Always play white noise in the background to drown out noise. Dont make your house quiet just because Baby is sleeping.
Teaching good sleep habits now, when Baby literallt is unaware of the world, will pay off so much in the future.
Savannah C thank you for this! My sister in law just had her first August 2019 and she NEVER puts her down. She always says, “according to research...” 😂 we all find it hilarious but honestly now she’s such a fussy baby because she can’t ever be put down.
Babies are different and mommies are different. Treat your sister with kindness ❤️
Just gave birth last week! My baby was 38 weeks gestation, but I had IUGR. So she’s basically a preemie. I have to say, the first set of advice, having someone do a feeding at night while you sleep, EXTREMELY HELPFUL! This gives mama some time to get a lot more rest and this will help you SO MUCH! It has helped me a lot with my crying too. And I have to say, I was feeling some baby blues, but as soon as I got that extra rest, I felt so much better!
My wife is due any day now- I’m so excited to meet my little boy!!!!! Thanks for the tips and your baby is adorable!
i'm 6months pregnant and im so excited to see may very first baby😊
I Love your video, it is so real... the nipple confusion is not for every baby. I have two boys and i used the pacifier and a bottle a day... and they rocked breastfeeding. New mommas, just try to make your life easier. and congrats, Wilson is soooo cute!
Cristal Cotrell yes yes yes!!!! Spread the word! Fed is best and pacifiers are good for baby!!!
Just wanna say nipple confusion isn’t real. What I mean by that is that they don’t get confused on what is and isn’t supplying milk, what they do is prefer a bottle over breast if it is a faster flow and less work to get milk from the bottle than it is the breast. To help this newborns should be given preemie bottles first. Not month 0 or month 1, but try to keep it just as difficult to get milk from the breast that it is the bottle. That said, some babies will still prefer the bottle, but they aren’t confused, just have preferences.
Watching Jessica's videos makes me feel like I'm getting advice from a best friend. Thank you so much for the awesome videos!
Thank you- this was lovely :) I'm 24 weeks pregnant at the moment with my first so it is lovely to hear another persons experience.
Good momma. Honest momma. We need communities like this. It take a village to raise a child.
This is the best new mom video I've seen because it was purely advice and no product placement, thank you! 🖤
Due in 9 weeks with my first. Can’t wait to meet my little boy! 🥰
Good luck mama. You are stronger than you can imagine and you can do it. Praying for a peaceful delivery.
I’m also due in 9 weeks with my first, a boy. Lol but I’m sure yours is here by now ❤️😊
It's been a year. How has it been?
@@Tristan1886 The lack of reply is worrisome. Lol.
After 4 years and 6 losses my husband and I finally had our first born son last Tuesday. Ive been saying it's like the worst jet lag.
I’m going to be giving birth in 3 days and you have made me feel so much more calmer and more confident! Please keep making these videos to help new moms like me!
Thank you so much for this super encouraging advice.. I am currently 4 months pregnant with my first child, and I really appreciate "real mom" advice that helps me not stress about what's to come! Health and happiness!
I have a 6 week old and I gave her a bottle and pacifier from the start and I also breast feed. She had no nipple confusion. My Dr told me it was a good idea so the baby get's used to both and allows others to feed her. Honestly I do whatever works for us and don't take other people's opinions to heart. You do what works best for you 😁🙌🙋♀️ I am glad she took the bottle as the first few weeks are exhausting and it's so nice when someone else can take a feeding shift. 😊
Baking Girl good job mama!! 💕
Watching this video while my wife is in labor right now. September, 17 2020. 11:00am. Getting last minute information. I’m literally shaking and about pass out.! Sh*t is no joke fellas.
Most diaper bags I’ve found are actually made like backpacks now.
Bust the puppies out!!! 😂 I am laughing and crying...5 months along. First baby at 41! And I am so scared of what to do or not do.
Wishing you every joy: I am 43 and unexpectedly expecting my 4th baby end June/early July. Enjoy the journey!
Please update us sometime! Saying a prayer for you and your little bundle of joy. Congratulations
Congratulations!
Wow, my mom is 42 and I'm 4 months pregnant. That's pretty weird🙃 congratulations on your baby💜
Me too! Just had my 1st baby at 41. Born in May 💙💜. Congratulations to you 👶
You’re so relaxing to listen to and offer great tips!! Can’t wait for my baby girl number 2! She’s coming 14 years after my first, so I’m definitely starting all over again! Appreciate all the advice! 💖
I have a 13 year old and I'm due with baby #2 in March 2024. In May 2024 my older daughter will turn 14. I'm kinda excited about it because with having an older kid I'll have a little more help than I did with my 1st daughter. This time I'll sometimes be able to leave my baby in the living room with my older daughter so I can use the bathroom, take a quick shower, or cook dinner! How was it for you having a teen and newborn at the same time? Are my expectations to high?
About to go in for my induction tomorrow, feeling so overwhelmed since it's my first baby & it's all a learning experience, I'm so excited at the same time too of course! Thank you for the tips!
I had my second at the end of May and I agree with all of these! Especially the go with the flow part and being graceful with your body and not worrying about it. It will all sort itself out! Congratulations! Wilson is adorable 💕
Yes! So true! Thank you for chiming in and congratulations on your little one! I hope you are doing well!
All great recommendations! I love the “be Spanish” recommendation 😂 So true! I’ve always wished people here in the US embraced the naturalness of breastfeeding our babies. I’d love to go to Spain someday!
Thank you!! Haha now if only I was as good at speaking Spanish as I am at nursing in public. I hope you get to go to Spain one day too! You will love it :)
Spain is wonderful and the people are so kind and friendly. Hope to return one day.
This is the best video I’ve seen re: newborn care and expectations. You’re light and succinct with a humorous spin. So appreciated. Thanks for the tips.
I just LOVE your calming, encouraging, helpful tone. You're not fake or Instagrammy (even though you're beautiful!) and I really appreciate the realness.
I’m expecting my first baby and this helps so much! Thanks for taking the time to create and post 🖤
I am 37 weeks pregnant (first time!!) and this is so helpful and made me feel a little more prepared in some small, practical ways I wasn't sure of, thank you so much
Currently 38 weeks pregnant and this video was extremely helpful! Lots of practical tips that aren’t too cliche. I’ve been consuming lots of mommy and baby content on here lately and this video is one of the best I’ve seen so far. Thank you!
so helpful💜 I’m currently 4.5 months pregnant with my first baby. I’ve worked in childcare and baby sat for years but getting a moms perspective is so much more important to me and knowing i will try my hardest to breastfeed, your input was extremely helpful as well.
This was so helpful! I’ll be delivering my first baby in 15 weeks and I’m beyond scared. Thank you for these practical tips! 🥰
I’m due in 4 weeks and 6 days with my first child. Wish me luck😳😧
good luck, lovely🥺❣wishing you both the best
gguk thank you so much☺️
You got this just focus on pushing when the time comes. I recommend getting an epidural its just a light pinch on your back and then your done. Trust me you will want it some contractions feel SO painful but mostly focus on breathing through some contractions. The epidural helps you sleep when in labor unless you have a quick birth you wont have to worry too much. I had the epidural and didnt feel my vag tearing lol I only had 2nd degree tears and the only thing that hurt was when they stitch you up at the end. Just focus on pushing and you got this!
Queen Syddy thank you so much❤️the closer it gets, the more nervous I get😳
I'm due in 5 weeks nd 1 day, it's my first born
Loved watching/listening and felt refreshed just because of how cheery, genuinely kindhearted and personalable you are :) thank you for sharing and for being you!
25 weeks pregnant and love all of these real tips to lessen stress and enjoy your newborn and motherhood! Thank you!
These are great tips! Sleep is so important, I learned with a newborn.
"Just be Spanish" hahahaha love that comment! - You have such a warm presence even in a video, Thank you for sharing these wonderful tips!
LOVING your channel! I'm a mom to one 19 month old and totally have baby fever now! Thanks for sharing such great tips!! And I love how you said every baby is different, so as a parent, do what you think is best!
This video is so soothing and relaxing! Great content and a beautiful baby!
I'm 16 and almost 17 I'm pregnant trying keep my body healthy and keep my baby thriving trying to find how look after my baby best possible.
Not sure if you’ve had yours yet but congratulations and good luck!!! :) I know being a young mom there isn’t a lot of congratulating or excitement from your peers, but it’s a beautiful thing to create a life, and support is always out there for you. I’m 20 years old and 2 weeks from my due date but I still get odd looks from people so it’s rough, but what matters is how good to your baby you are, not the circumstances around the baby’s conception. If you’re watching advice videos and trying your best, I truly believe you’re full of all the love your little one needs to grow up healthy and happy. You go, mom!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Congratulations I got pregnant at 17 my daughter is 4 now and absolutely love being a mum. Im sure you will be the same X
I haven't fallen in love with any moms on TH-cam except you!! I love how gently you come across - very soothing :) I'm currently pregnant with my first and I'm so nervous, but you always give such calming advice!! Thank you :)
5 weeks till the due date for our first baby and this is the most down to earth video I’ve seen yet. Thank you.
Your voice is so soothing and motherly, I feel so calm and excited to meet my little bumpkin now ❤
Congrats!!! Hope all goes well happy and safe!
Oh my gosh what a cute baby!!
Also, every single one of those tips are amazing and I’m going to do those. Especially dad giving a nightly bottle. Sleep= life
I love how realistic this is ❤️👏🏽
i love your honesty and how simple you keep it. love this channel, im someone who doesn't really have a mom to ask about this type of stuff and you have been helping me a lot.
Thank you for this video! Me and my husband are expecting our first child in Sept and I've been so nervous about adjusting and keeping our newborn happy and healthy. This video makes me feel like I'm not going in blind. Of course every baby is different but its nice to hear what others do with their newborns.
So informative. Thanks for being so calm and reassuring.
Omg he is super cute! Thanks for the tip about “jet lag”.
This video was so helpful. You explain it in such a supportive yet light hearted way - definitely helped me calm my nerves around a few of the issues you addressed. Thank you!
This video was super helpful! I'm 3.5 weeks postpartum with my first baby and man is there so much to learn and adjust to! I still have a million questions, but this video definitely provided me with some answers and some comfort.
"Try to be Spanish" is my new favorite parenting advice, lol. I just found your channel and I've loved every video so far, so thank you so much! I'm 24 weeks (tomorrow) with our first baby, so my husband and I are pretty clueless, excited and anxious. These advice videos are super helpful.
Thank you Jessica.. helpful video..
Bottle at night and loud and bright in day and dim at night are the most useful takeaways for me😘
Thank you so much for watching :)
I’m not a soon to be mother or even close to having a baby soon. I’m here because I’m curious and this is some interesting information. I love the internet! This kind of stuff we could only learn by word of mouth before. Very cool that you’re so candid and open :)
Im due with my first in DECEMBER ! 😊 im literally stressin about every little thing. I found your video very reassuring so thank you. Wish me luck!
Congratulations, I am as well! I feel so overwhelmed but so excited, I keep binge watching these kinds of videos lol!
@@quickstuff000 yess girl me too! I dont know if its good to watch or making me more paranoid! 😄😭😝
@@ciaobella9310 Haha i cant either but i cant stop watching!
Me too 😇😇😇 prayed for you ladies 😇😇😇
omg you're having a winter baby!! are you thinking of using a winter type of name? or just a regular one?
This video really encouraged me yesterday. My first is approaching 6 weeks old and all the advice out there can be overwhelming...also I agree, the paci during diaper changes is a game changer 🙌
Omg i wish i had someone to give my baby a bottle durning the night! I so love this vid.. TFS
How are you so put together and beautiful after having a baby who is only one week old!!! Wow! You are inspiring!
Thank you for this video! Love the tips and you have such a calm and positive aura.
Due in 10 weeks with my first. ❤️
Ahh congrats on your second! My second baby will be 2 weeks old tomorrow and it is crazy how different we are doing things this time around! 👍
This was one of the best videos I’ve seen for first time mommy advice. God bless you and your beautiful baby boy. 💙
Thank you so much! That is so helpful for me to hear! Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much for your videos! I wish I had them four-five years ago with my first. If I did, I might not have got postpartum depression. Moms need to hear good down to earth advice like this! Thank you!
I've watched a couple of your videos now and just wanted to say i find you so down to earth. No shade on other mommas but lots of other videos are so "fancy" I absolutely LOVED that you're using a regular backpack and not a special one. Super relatable!! Btw the young king is just adorable 😍
Me and my spouse are planning on conceiving, and I’m really excited, but at the same time nervous about everything! 😱 I would be a first-time mom. Thank you for sharing your tips, it’s really encouraging! Also, you look so calm and naturally maternal 😍. I hope I’m like that 😂.
My wife is 30 weeks today and we are both so excited and can't wait to meet our first baby boy. Great video and I will try to remember some of the things. I wanna be involved as much as possible in everything to do with our little Cokito (baby's nickname by the way).
I wish you the best for you and all the mom and moms to be because I know it's hard and you all do the hardest part. I wish I could do more so now I will go straight to listen to the audiobook my wife recommended me to listen to.
Thank you! I am due May 2020 with our first. I've read a ton of books but the realistic way this was presented was awesome!
Just had my second baby 11 days ago, & I find your videos not only informative but so comforting. Thank you
This was lovely. I enjoyed the video. Great advice, wonderful quality and background, and what a precious baby
Hi Jessica! Thank you for sharing with us! I am a BIG fan of your truth and positive words and love that you always keep it real! God bless you and your beautiful family! xo
Thank you so much I really appreciate you & that you took the time to tell me this :) I need it! God bless you too!! so much love to you
Honestly I haven’t heard these tips anywhere before. Thanks for that
Thank you for all the advice and just being you! You really calm my nerves! I don’t know you, but your videos are like watching a friend giving me tips And telling me it’s ok!
38 weeks pregnant with 2nd kiddo. I have a 5 year old already. This one was a big surprise ! I feel like I’ve forgotten how to do all the newborn baby stuff! I feel like it’s going to be ok after watching you! Thanks again!!
New soon to be mommy here! Due March 4th, 2021! I've watched so many videos on tips & tricks with newborns. This is by far my favorite video! Everything about you is a joy! Thank you! I hope to be as confident as you as a momma! xo
New mama here too due march 6th!
