Olivia, PLEASE do not hesitate to let us know how we can support you. What helps most? Watching your YT ads all the way through? Clicking links you share? Saving your instagram posts? Let us know what helps and we will all try to do it! I can't even imagine the cost of having a baby in the NICU for that long, plus your new home.... 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Olivia, it’s okay to not share what you don’t want to share. It’s okay to take a break and go silent without explanation. Your family needs the best you, but most importantly, YOU need the best you. Sending love and prayers 💕💕🙏🏾
I don’t even know how to word what I want to say, nicu mom here (we did 6 weeks with one twin 8 weeks with the other) and the way you have carried yourself, balanced yourself, fought for your girl, I mean I have had the utmost respect for you and your husband this whole time. It’s not easy to watch this because I know your pain because I have felt my own and I just want to hug you, tell you your incredible and your family is so lucky to have you as their rock!
Girl I was crying 5 seconds in. This journey is so close to home for us. My 34 weeker had so much harder of a time than doctors thought she would. Congratulations times a million for bringing that girl home!!! Closing the nicu chapter is a breath of fresh air. Time for a much better kind of chaos 🎉❤😂
My heart goes out to you and your family! You don’t owe anyone an explanation. This is your life and you do what’s best for you and your family! As a mom I can’t only imagine, I’m in tears and praying for your family! God is with you and your baby girl, she’s such a fighter 💪💗
Cried almost the whole video 😭 as a 2x NICU mom to a 33 weeker & 28 weeker, I could just FEEL the relief of her being home now. You said things so beautifully explaining the roller coaster that is the NICU. So so happy that y’all have your family all together 🩷
I can’t believe you went through this and still managed to take your big kids on outings AND post on TH-cam 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 you are an amazing mother and businesswoman, much respect.
Congratulations on bringing your baby girl home! Just know that you sharing about your beautiful medically complex baby girl made me smile and cry and I’m glad you shared your story about Soleil. Your strength throughout this difficult time shined through this video. I’m a 2x NICU mama from Central California and my almost 3 year old son is medically complex and was life flighted to Ohio where we actually lived in the children’s hospital for 374 days until we were able to bring him back home last year. He has a G-Tube too. Don’t stop sharing about your journey. There are a lot of medical mamas who can stand with you and give you support. 😊
What other people don't matter anymore. Your family is the most important thing in your life. I feel sorry for what you've experienced but you and your baby are so strong. You are amazing!
As a NICU mom myself I cried this whole video. I only stayed 12 days in the nicu with my baby girl (who is now 3 ) so I cant even imagine what you went through. I remember the day we got to leave thinking its my turn! Watching your video makes my heart explode seeing you guys get your turn to go home! I am so happy you have your baby home! This is just the beginning. Your baby is so lucky to have you guys.
As a mommy, it pains me to hear these type of stories and I can’t even begin to imagine. Thank you for sharing your journey and we are praying for lil soleil to live a happy and healthy life ❤ may God bless her
My first baby was a NICU baby. This video brought it all back. The way it felt to be discharged without my baby. Coming back everyday for rounding and having to leave her again. The feeling of finally bringing her home 😢 My heart is with your family.
You are all fighters! So glad your family is all together now, hoping you can all heal together and move forward to your new life. Don’t listen to anyone else, be confident in your decisions
Let us know how we can support you! I had a 26 weeker in December and spent 90 days in the nicu! That last day was SOOOO Nerve wrecking!! Never knowing if you’ll actually get to go home! That breath of fresh air when you get in the car to take your baby home! I can’t believe he’s been home for almost 5 months at this point! It’s such a blessing! 💖💖💖
I never understand people who say things like that. TH-cam is wonderful and we love hearing stories and seeing a piece of your life, BUT it's your life! You are so strong. NICU moms are the toughest people. Sending your family prayers and love. So thankful you were able to bring your baby home. God knew you could go through this journey.
You’re so strong, and your baby girl gets that from you!🩷 Take what you need. Time, social breaks, counseling, rest, anything you can to help yourself and your family positively. There is no one way to experience trauma and the hard and beautiful things in life. 83 days feels like a lifetime, but now your lifetime together is about to begin.🤗 You’re in my thoughts and prayers!
Wow this really touched me. Our baby was in the NICU for 3 months as well. When you said that we don’t give enough credit to how strong and resilient kids are I felt that so much. Its so true!! When I slow down and think about how much she has gone through it makes me cry. One of the nurses who took care of her is now a part of our family too, and Im so grateful for that. You and your family are so strong and I admire you all so much ❤Thank you for sharing this part of your lives with the world. I understand its not always easy to do so.
Olivia. I couldn’t watch this without weeping for you and your family. You have had such a difficult season and I am praying for you and your family. You are such a strong mama and soleil is such a strong little girl! Praying for god’s ease over you and your family and for your heart to be at rest.
I’m sending healing vibes, for your little one and the rest of your family. I’m happy that you get to have your family together. NICU stays are heartbreaking.
Your baby girl is strong because you and your husband are super strong. You have been through so much and handle it all gracefully. I pray that baby girl grows bigger and stronger with each day. Glad she made it home safely.
Crying with you, Olivia! Happy tears that Soleil is home and has made it through!! Crying because of all of the hardships you have had to go through. I'm sure there has been rough, rough days , but man, you have handled it with such grace. To think you had to go through the mess of postpartum hormones, healing from a C Section, being a mama of 4, handling home, kids, dinners, LIFE is remarkable. All the mamas here will support you and your family in whatever we can do ❤ ❤ ❤
You are so strong, I know traumatic moments like this can impact you devastatingly but you have carried on with grace! I’m praying for your whole family the 6 of you.
At the end of the day y'all are humans and parents. You owe us nothing family comes first. I'm glad to hear that the babies angels are doing okay now. Sending you good vibes and healing.
I’m sorry you’ve had people who haven’t been understanding because of their own selfish desires and in this case that’s watching and anticipating each and every single one of your videos. I’m so glad your baby girl is home in her mamas arms and I just pray she remains a fighter. Sending you so many hugs and well wishes as you adjust to being a twin mama and having the girls together. May you be blessed ❤
Another nicu mom here. Just did it last year, and would love to just send you a hug and love. I still cry most times I look at our pictures from the nicu - give yourself lots of grace. God bless you
Mama you’re doing amazing and your family knows it and I hope you know it. It’s a lot to take in and your life is forever changed. Sending so much love - thank you for sharing your journey with us.
I cried the whole way through this.. ❤ She did it.. and you all did her proud ❤ Sending you all the love and strength.. you are fantastic parents and I'm certain that all 4 of your kids feel and know that xxx
So proud of Soleil and you and your whole family. I cried watching this, thinking back to when I became a mum of a medically complex child. It is so hard in the thick of it but there is light and you will have amazing times ahead, sending love and blessings ❤
Literally crying as you were opening up and sharing how your baby almost left us and my heart breaks for you guys for everything you had to go through but WOW, her and you, and Jordan are so damn strong and are such fighters! I wish I could say just ignore the idiots because the people who have been following you and genuinely love you and your content are always happy to see anything you share with us because through this horrible ordeal you were still here and that says a lot and we appreciate you so much more!
I am in tears watching this. I can’t imagine what your journey has been like. I’ve never had a baby in the NICU, but I do know what’s it like to leave the hospital without your child (my first was a full term stillborn). I couldn’t imagine doing it over and over and not knowing what the outcome would be. You are entitled to your grief and your process. Don’t let strangers on social media make you feel like you need to explain or justify your absence. Your family comes first ALWAYS, and some things are better kept private. Praying for your heart, mama, and your sweet Soleil.
You guys are amazing parents. I wish you guys the best. I am a special needs mom myself and I totally get you, we didn't sign up to be special needs parents, God volunteered us and let me tell you its the hardest but most rewarding thing you'll ever experience it really is. The love you feel for them gives you all the strength you need to keep moving forward. One thing I do advice you is to take care of your mental health, my doctor told me, "your son will have special needs for the rest of his life and you will take care of him for the rest of your life, so take care of your mental health, so that you are strong mentally for this." I advice the same thing.
My heart goes out to y’all. As someone who’s been here from the beginning yall have been through a lot and more than we even see. I have people have given y’all a hard time and I am continually praying for you all. ❤️
God bless Soleil and your whole entire family!! She’s a fighter and will get better with time. Now you can focus and breath and not feel like a little piece of you is missing. You are amazing and a wonderful mom!! 🩷🩷 god bless you all 🩷
I’ve been a follower for years, and I’ve had two pregnancies in nearly identical timelines as yours with Arlo and the girlies. I remember your post back before you delivered Arlo and so much was unknown about what the delivery experience would be with Covid..I felt so scared but felt so acknowledged when you shared your fears. This video had me in tears and I just can’t find the words to communicate the amount of support I’d like to share with you and your family. You are so strong. Your family is so strong. I can’t wait to follow along for the rest of your journey!
Bless your family. You are both amazing. My son was in the nicu for only 4 days … though with a life time of complications… but just those 4 days has given me PTSD that I still can’t kick. I can’t even begin to imagine 80+ with 3 children at home. I’m happy to see your family together under one roof!
Your family is your priority- only when you have kids you understand this. Ppl that made comments are not parents or are not doing parenting right. Sending love and healing thoughts for you and your family. You are strong and we are very proud of you.
I follow you on IG and I have a three month old daughter…and I’m crying so hard hearing you talk about your beautiful princess needing to be resuscitated. You are so strong and she is a MF WARRIOR!! Remember to always be kind to yourself. You are allowed to feel whatever enters your heart and brain. Some days you may feel sad, guilt, anger, frustration, allow yourself to feel those. Bless you and your beautiful family
Hey girl, I bumped into you when my toddler was at the hospital and introduced myself. I'm so happy to hear baby girl is home. Our whole experience was so traumatizing too but feel the same as you, since my little boy is home nothing else matters. I can't believe people would expect more from you or say anything negative and I dont want to give any more energy to those things but know you sharing gave me some healing for my experiences too in the hospital with my little guy. All this stuff we go through with the kiddos is just the deepest stuff ever and being vulnerable about it allows us to feel like we're not alone and I thank you. All my love to all 6 of you! And a big kissy to Soleil!
The fact that a anyone feels entitled to shame a mother for wanting to spend time with her family and deal with an extremely hard situation in private is crazy to me, im so glad the baby and your family is ok and that you have her home and I hope you know some of us who follow this story would never ask for explanations or demand you to share anything you don't feel comfortable with, honestly is great to see the baby home and that is the most important stuff. Hope you all the best and thank you for choosing to let us in to your life, all the love.
You have dealt with this devastating experience with so much grace and dignity. I admire how you have protected your family and especially your daughter. The internet does not need to know the details of her medical condition. Just because you are a content creator does not mean the people on the internet are entitled to the innermost details of your life or your family’s life. I am a NICU mom. Both of my babies (not twins) were born at 32 weeks. They are now 9 and 5. It is still the hardest thing I have ever experienced. Sending you so much love and support.
I'm so so happy you have your baby girl home , she's amazing , strong little warrior, you are amazing mummy and daddy , allow yourself time to do what is right for you and your family xxx Sending love and strength all the way from England 🇬🇧
You are an awesome mom. No need to feel bad about not posting x amount of content or whatever. Just focus on your family and post what feels natural! 🥰😘
Congratulations on bringing your sweet baby home from the NICU! What a momentous day for your family! It sounds like she has some very very strong parents!
Sending you so much love, forget all the negative comments. I'm a mother of a daughter born premature and has cerebral palsy and was in the NICU for awhile, take a deep breath, God will be with you. It will get easier, my daughter is now 32 years old and had so many obstacles and surgeries, she now just had a child of her own and she is an amazing woman. Just love every moment and stay positive and it's ok to cry and decompress. Just know there are many of us that have been through it and you have such support. Love to your family, a beautiful family you have.
Can’t stop crying, I’m so sorry your family had to go through this experience. I will keep your family especially your beautiful baby girl in my prayers.
I am so glad she is home. What relief to you and your family. Please know that most of us are happy for you. And those that post negative comments are a**holes. Ignore them.
You are doing the best you can under your current situation. If people think you’re disingenuous because you’re doing the part that brings income to your family… then they aren’t the kind of follower you need or want. I am so happy for you and your family & will continue to support you as you navigate this new journey. You guys can do this, you already have been! Things will become easier as you go. Thinking of you!
Don’t ever hesitate to share things because of others “triggers.” You’re the one living it and shouldn’t have to tip toe around your reality because of others choosing to watch your videos. You also shouldn’t have to feel like you have to shield Soleil because it’s not your “typical” birth/life story. Everything can be so polished on social media and obviously it’s not always like that in real life. We welcome Soleil with open arms!💕
This was so heartfelt. I’m up shedding tears with you at 36 weeks. I appreciate the transparency you have given us here. It was your choice, as whatever you chose to share. This is so delicate. I pray for you and your beautiful mighty fighter. Thanks for sharing, I been following since you had just 2 under 2. It really helped me too. You are so strong mama 💪❤
What a hard hard hard journey this was……my heart aches for you, but I’m amazed to see how strong you are…wow, I would have crumbled for sure…..You guys are in my prayers. Just want to send you and your family lots of love. May the little girl grows stronger and stronger with every passing minute ❤️❤️❤️
I’m so glad you are giving those who have a special needs child or NiCU babies a voice. Both of my boys (now 3 & 5) were taken from me to a higher level NiCU hospital because of a stroke/cleft palate or premature. I really feel for you…the ptsd is real and so is the grief. I’m glad you mentioned that because it is like a death of a child you thought you would have. It’s so hard with my special needs son (he’s non verbal autistic) but inspires me daily and I give long hugs to both of them all the time. Therapy is still a must but it gets a bit easier. Comes in waves and I understand the isolation. Some of my friends I lost because they couldn’t relate to my ongoing depression for a long time. I’m glad you are talking about it. ❤❤❤ Your journey will help others going through it too, especially those in the thick of it. That’s been my mission too, to try to help those locally going through a similar situation. Our hardships will eventually become or testimony.
Hi! Olivia your journey in life and motherhood is so inspiring, God’s guidance and provision in your life is very evident. God bless you and your beautiful family always.🙏🏼
Please take your time to tend to your family, healing and just soaking up your super strong baby girl. You don't owe us anything. If stepping back is what you need, even just to enjoy finally being home with all of your babies, do it. Enjoy your beautiful family. You all are a great team and I can't imagine what hardships you both had to face as parents. Big hug to you and your precious kids! Congratulations on your baby girl finally being at home 🎉❤
I’m so sorry. You guys are so strong. I 100% understand. When I was in the hospital and going through our hard time, I just had to shut out the world until I was ready to share.
I can’t even imagine how you & the family had strength to get up daily and keep going. Thank you for sharing this part with us. Take things one day at a time. I’ll add y’all to the prayer list.
Sending love, prayers and big hugs 🤗 Olivia, little beautiful Soleil is home with her twin and her brothers and with you guys who are the best parents to your gorgeous children. Thankyou for sharing I can see how difficult and painful this has been for you sending so much love to you all 💗🤗💗
God bless you all. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for what you are dealing with. I’ve been in your shoes and you and your family come first. Take care of yourself and your family. The rest will fall in to place.❤
I can understand what you're going through my nephew. His wife, her baby was in the Nick. You and it was a lot for her and I would talk to her. And it wasn't easy so I understand what you have dealt with. I am glad the baby is home with you.❤🎉
I haven’t been staying up to date but I’m going to back and replay all those sponsorships. You did everything you had to do. I’m sorry people gave you grief over that. Ugh this whole video just tore my heart up. Praying for you all
Praying for your little babe! My 33 week baby girl spent a month in the NiCU on CPAP and I'm RT myself. Things will slowly get back to normal as she grows 🙏🏻 you are strong! God Bless You!
NICU mom here also…. giving you strength and prayers threw this you got this take your time and make sure you take care of your self too ❤ sleep is probably the biggest obstacle rest when you can and don’t feel guilty about it bc they need you ! You’ll have good days and bad but it will get better with time! If you feel like something is off with the baby or your self always trust your gut!
Balling. 😭💖 Soleil is genuinely stronger than so many of us could ever be. I'm so happy for you all. I just want to say that Christian is so sweet, it's so wild to watch him grow up on here. I've been here since you were pregnant with him and he's just grown into the sweetest little boy and it makes my boy mama heart burst. Thank you for sharing your life with us, you owe the internet nothing and you've been through so much in your life are so strong to share all of that on here. Sending so much love 💖
Am so happy that you can get your baby home. Praying for you and your family. I truly don't understand how people can complain about how other people live😢. It's so mind blowing. I mean if you dont like her content don't watch,its so simple. Bringing other people down is never good
You are so strong. The strongest mom, keep your family first as you've been doing. Everyday is such a blessing and you are doing it 💓 ✨️ all my love to you and your family
So raw, so beautiful, so REAL. Thank you for bringing it all to us. It is the absolute hardest thing to both live it and then re-live it for an audience. So happy that your family is together ❤️❤️🎉🎉
My goodness, Olivia. Please don’t feel like you even have to explain why you haven’t been as active on social media. At the end of the day, this is your life and your family’s life not all of your subscribers. I will be praying for you and your family, especially, for Soleil. May she continue to fight through any obstacle. She is truly such a warrior. Sending you and your family a big hug. I’m so happy for you all to have your family together at home. 🤗
Been following you for awhile Olivia. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I love watching all your videos and I love how real you are. Take any break you need. ❤ your loyal “fans” will be here. Thinking about you and your family and I hope things only get better for you.
May God bless all your babies and your family. Thank you for sharing as much as you do. I have been praying for Soleil to come home. So happy to see this. You are an amazing and strong mama. Your children have a great role model for them! ❤
You and your family are soooo strong. Medically complex children are so beautiful and strong. I joined a Facebook group for families with trach children to help me get through times with my own medically complex son. He was also trach and g-tube. Knowing there are other families in the same situation really helps. Sending you lots of love and prayers.
You weee chosen to be these girls momma and parents for a reason! Congratulations for having your girls home and good luck on your journey!! She is where she needs to be!🫶🫶
Olivia, you don't have to apologize at all. You are an amazing mommy and I completely understand the break you needed. Please do let us know how we can be of support to you. Give yourself some grace -- God will turn this into your testimony and purpose. We admire you and rooting for you
I’m tearing when you told the story. I cannot imagine what your family going through. I’m so happy that she is alive and home with your family 😊 she is a fighter and so strong!
🥹 both of my boys were NICU babies for a short amount of time. It will always make you cry, at least for me it still does. Caring and loving your kiddos makes you a good mama. The relief of graduation day is very emotional, ups and downs. You've got this, you guys are doing an amazing job. And such beautiful children ❤
This was such an emotional and beautiful story. I am a mother of two and cannot imagine experiencing what you’ve been through. Love your channel and love you too! Sending prayers and love your way!
Olivia, PLEASE do not hesitate to let us know how we can support you. What helps most? Watching your YT ads all the way through? Clicking links you share? Saving your instagram posts? Let us know what helps and we will all try to do it! I can't even imagine the cost of having a baby in the NICU for that long, plus your new home.... 🤍🤍🤍🤍
Yes yes yes!!! Whatever we can do to support you mama!!!
Yes!! Me too. I ❤ this!!
I love this comment ❤
This this this!!!
Yes!
Olivia, it’s okay to not share what you don’t want to share. It’s okay to take a break and go silent without explanation. Your family needs the best you, but most importantly, YOU need the best you. Sending love and prayers 💕💕🙏🏾

Congratulations times a million for bringing that girl home!!! Closing the nicu chapter is a breath of fresh air. Time for a much better kind of chaos 🎉❤😂
The welcome home sign got me 🥺. She picked you to be her mama because she knew that you could handle it. You totally got this.❤
Don't ever apologize for putting your family and kids first. Take care of yourself. Give yourself some grace. Ignore those rude, ignorant jerks ❤❤❤❤
My heart goes out to you and your family! You don’t owe anyone an explanation. This is your life and you do what’s best for you and your family! As a mom I can’t only imagine, I’m in tears and praying for your family! God is with you and your baby girl, she’s such a fighter 💪💗
Thank you for sharing your story! Currently 19 weeks pregnant with two boys.
Cried almost the whole video 😭 as a 2x NICU mom to a 33 weeker & 28 weeker, I could just FEEL the relief of her being home now. You said things so beautifully explaining the roller coaster that is the NICU. So so happy that y’all have your family all together 🩷
Wow my daughter had the same 28 and 33 week babies both perfect and healthy.
I can’t believe you went through this and still managed to take your big kids on outings AND post on TH-cam 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 you are an amazing mother and businesswoman, much respect.

She is an inspiring little baby girl. I am so happy you have her home safe. Praying for your family. This video had me bawling, she is a fighter.
It’s clear your shaking from all the nerves! We feel for you mama! All the love!!! Make sure you take time for yourself to heal and rest! ❤️❤️❤️

Your baby girl is strong because you and your husband are super strong. You have been through so much and handle it all gracefully. I pray that baby girl grows bigger and stronger with each day. Glad she made it home safely.

I cried the whole way through this.. ❤
She did it.. and you all did her proud ❤
Sending you all the love and strength.. you are fantastic parents and I'm certain that all 4 of your kids feel and know that xxx
So proud of Soleil and you and your whole family. I cried watching this, thinking back to when I became a mum of a medically complex child. It is so hard in the thick of it but there is light and you will have amazing times ahead, sending love and blessings ❤
Literally crying as you were opening up and sharing how your baby almost left us and my heart breaks for you guys for everything you had to go through but WOW, her and you, and Jordan are so damn strong and are such fighters! I wish I could say just ignore the idiots because the people who have been following you and genuinely love you and your content are always happy to see anything you share with us because through this horrible ordeal you were still here and that says a lot and we appreciate you so much more!
I'm so sorry for what your family has been through. Praying for your baby ❤️
Congratulations on bringing you sweet girl home! Don’t ever be sorry for stepping back and taking care of your family. ❤
You are such a good mom! I’m pregnant with twin girls myself actually and I just wanted you to know I’m praying for you. ❤
I am in tears watching this. I can’t imagine what your journey has been like. I’ve never had a baby in the NICU, but I do know what’s it like to leave the hospital without your child (my first was a full term stillborn). I couldn’t imagine doing it over and over and not knowing what the outcome would be. You are entitled to your grief and your process. Don’t let strangers on social media make you feel like you need to explain or justify your absence. Your family comes first ALWAYS, and some things are better kept private. Praying for your heart, mama, and your sweet Soleil.
You guys are amazing parents. I wish you guys the best. I am a special needs mom myself and I totally get you, we didn't sign up to be special needs parents, God volunteered us and let me tell you its the hardest but most rewarding thing you'll ever experience it really is. The love you feel for them gives you all the strength you need to keep moving forward. One thing I do advice you is to take care of your mental health, my doctor told me, "your son will have special needs for the rest of his life and you will take care of him for the rest of your life, so take care of your mental health, so that you are strong mentally for this." I advice the same thing.
My heart goes out to y’all. As someone who’s been here from the beginning yall have been through a lot and more than we even see. I have people have given y’all a hard time and I am continually praying for you all. ❤️
God bless Soleil and your whole entire family!! She’s a fighter and will get better with time. Now you can focus and breath and not feel like a little piece of you is missing. You are amazing and a wonderful mom!! 🩷🩷 god bless you all 🩷
As a mom, my heart broke, but so glad she was under Gods mercy. You owe us nothing. Be praying for your family.
I’ve been a follower for years, and I’ve had two pregnancies in nearly identical timelines as yours with Arlo and the girlies. I remember your post back before you delivered Arlo and so much was unknown about what the delivery experience would be with Covid..I felt so scared but felt so acknowledged when you shared your fears. This video had me in tears and I just can’t find the words to communicate the amount of support I’d like to share with you and your family. You are so strong. Your family is so strong. I can’t wait to follow along for the rest of your journey!
I can't imagine what you all have been through. I'm so happy you have your babies home together. Take care and take all the time you need.
I want to give you a hug SO BADLY. ❤ I can't imagine going through this as a mom of 2.
Bless your family. You are both amazing. My son was in the nicu for only 4 days … though with a life time of complications… but just those 4 days has given me PTSD that I still can’t kick. I can’t even begin to imagine 80+ with 3 children at home. I’m happy to see your family together under one roof!
Your family is your priority- only when you have kids you understand this. Ppl that made comments are not parents or are not doing parenting right.
Sending love and healing thoughts for you and your family.
You are strong and we are very proud of you.
I follow you on IG and I have a three month old daughter…and I’m crying so hard hearing you talk about your beautiful princess needing to be resuscitated. You are so strong and she is a MF WARRIOR!! Remember to always be kind to yourself. You are allowed to feel whatever enters your heart and brain. Some days you may feel sad, guilt, anger, frustration, allow yourself to feel those. Bless you and your beautiful family
Please do not apologize for anything❤️ sending so much love.
Oh Olivia, I am so sorry. Your family is incredible. Thank you for opening up and sharing your family’s story. ❤️
Sending love. ❤ you don’t owe anyone ANYTHING in what you share or don’t share.
Hey girl, I bumped into you when my toddler was at the hospital and introduced myself. I'm so happy to hear baby girl is home. Our whole experience was so traumatizing too but feel the same as you, since my little boy is home nothing else matters. I can't believe people would expect more from you or say anything negative and I dont want to give any more energy to those things but know you sharing gave me some healing for my experiences too in the hospital with my little guy. All this stuff we go through with the kiddos is just the deepest stuff ever and being vulnerable about it allows us to feel like we're not alone and I thank you. All my love to all 6 of you! And a big kissy to Soleil!
The fact that a anyone feels entitled to shame a mother for wanting to spend time with her family and deal with an extremely hard situation in private is crazy to me, im so glad the baby and your family is ok and that you have her home and I hope you know some of us who follow this story would never ask for explanations or demand you to share anything you don't feel comfortable with, honestly is great to see the baby home and that is the most important stuff. Hope you all the best and thank you for choosing to let us in to your life, all the love.
You have dealt with this devastating experience with so much grace and dignity. I admire how you have protected your family and especially your daughter. The internet does not need to know the details of her medical condition. Just because you are a content creator does not mean the people on the internet are entitled to the innermost details of your life or your family’s life. I am a NICU mom. Both of my babies (not twins) were born at 32 weeks. They are now 9 and 5. It is still the hardest thing I have ever experienced. Sending you so much love and support.
I'm so so happy you have your baby girl home , she's amazing , strong little warrior, you are amazing mummy and daddy , allow yourself time to do what is right for you and your family xxx
Sending love and strength all the way from England 🇬🇧
You are an awesome mom. No need to feel bad about not posting x amount of content or whatever. Just focus on your family and post what feels natural! 🥰😘
Nicu life was one of the hardest parts of being a mom. You handled it with grace. I am so happy for all of you!
Congratulations on bringing your sweet baby home from the NICU! What a momentous day for your family! It sounds like she has some very very strong parents!
Sending you so much love, forget all the negative comments. I'm a mother of a daughter born premature and has cerebral palsy and was in the NICU for awhile, take a deep breath, God will be with you. It will get easier, my daughter is now 32 years old and had so many obstacles and surgeries, she now just had a child of her own and she is an amazing woman. Just love every moment and stay positive and it's ok to cry and decompress. Just know there are many of us that have been through it and you have such support. Love to your family, a beautiful family you have.
Can’t stop crying, I’m so sorry your family had to go through this experience. I will keep your family especially your beautiful baby girl in my prayers.
I am so glad she is home. What relief to you and your family. Please know that most of us are happy for you. And those that post negative comments are a**holes. Ignore them.
You are doing the best you can under your current situation. If people think you’re disingenuous because you’re doing the part that brings income to your family… then they aren’t the kind of follower you need or want. I am so happy for you and your family & will continue to support you as you navigate this new journey. You guys can do this, you already have been! Things will become easier as you go. Thinking of you!
I am so happy. Welcome home baby. You are loved. God bless your home.
Don’t ever hesitate to share things because of others “triggers.” You’re the one living it and shouldn’t have to tip toe around your reality because of others choosing to watch your videos. You also shouldn’t have to feel like you have to shield Soleil because it’s not your “typical” birth/life story. Everything can be so polished on social media and obviously it’s not always like that in real life. We welcome Soleil with open arms!💕
Oh, Olivia! I am so so glad Soleil is home 🤍 your family is complete. I am so happy and crying happy tears for you.
This was so heartfelt. I’m up shedding tears with you at 36 weeks. I appreciate the transparency you have given us here. It was your choice, as whatever you chose to share. This is so delicate. I pray for you and your beautiful mighty fighter. Thanks for sharing, I been following since you had just 2 under 2. It really helped me too. You are so strong mama 💪❤
What a hard hard hard journey this was……my heart aches for you, but I’m amazed to see how strong you are…wow, I would have crumbled for sure…..You guys are in my prayers. Just want to send you and your family lots of love. May the little girl grows stronger and stronger with every passing minute ❤️❤️❤️
Oh mama! This was definitely a tear jerker. I am so glad she is home and such a fighter! God is so good!
So happy you guys are all together under one roof now. Yay Soleil!
I’m so glad you are giving those who have a special needs child or NiCU babies a voice. Both of my boys (now 3 & 5) were taken from me to a higher level NiCU hospital because of a stroke/cleft palate or premature.
I really feel for you…the ptsd is real and so is the grief. I’m glad you mentioned that because it is like a death of a child you thought you would have.
It’s so hard with my special needs son (he’s non verbal autistic) but inspires me daily and I give long hugs to both of them all the time.
Therapy is still a must but it gets a bit easier. Comes in waves and I understand the isolation. Some of my friends I lost because they couldn’t relate to my ongoing depression for a long time. I’m glad you are talking about it.
❤❤❤ Your journey will help others going through it too, especially those in the thick of it. That’s been my mission too, to try to help those locally going through a similar situation. Our hardships will eventually become or testimony.
Hi! Olivia your journey in life and motherhood is so inspiring, God’s guidance and provision in your life is very evident. God bless you and your beautiful family always.🙏🏼
Please take your time to tend to your family, healing and just soaking up your super strong baby girl. You don't owe us anything. If stepping back is what you need, even just to enjoy finally being home with all of your babies, do it. Enjoy your beautiful family. You all are a great team and I can't imagine what hardships you both had to face as parents. Big hug to you and your precious kids! Congratulations on your baby girl finally being at home 🎉❤
Hugs mama❤. We're here and we just want you guys to be okay. Take as long as you need and share what you can when you can ❤️
I’m so sorry. You guys are so strong. I 100% understand. When I was in the hospital and going through our hard time, I just had to shut out the world until I was ready to share.
I can’t even imagine how you & the family had strength to get up daily and keep going. Thank you for sharing this part with us. Take things one day at a time. I’ll add y’all to the prayer list.
Sending love, prayers and big hugs 🤗 Olivia, little beautiful Soleil is home with her twin and her brothers and with you guys who are the best parents to your gorgeous children. Thankyou for sharing I can see how difficult and painful this has been for you sending so much love to you all 💗🤗💗
As a NICU mama to a “feeder and grower” who stayed 63 days - I am sobbing. You are so strong, she is so lucky to have you as her mama 🤍
God bless you all. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for what you are dealing with. I’ve been in your shoes and you and your family come first. Take care of yourself and your family. The rest will fall in to place.❤
I can understand what you're going through my nephew. His wife, her baby was in the Nick. You and it was a lot for her and I would talk to her. And it wasn't easy so I understand what you have dealt with. I am glad the baby is home with you.❤🎉
I haven’t been staying up to date but I’m going to back and replay all those sponsorships. You did everything you had to do. I’m sorry people gave you grief over that. Ugh this whole video just tore my heart up. Praying for you all
Praying for your little babe!
My 33 week baby girl spent a month in the NiCU on CPAP and I'm RT myself. Things will slowly get back to normal as she grows 🙏🏻 you are strong! God Bless You!
NICU mom here also…. giving you strength and prayers threw this you got this take your time and make sure you take care of your self too ❤ sleep is probably the biggest obstacle rest when you can and don’t feel guilty about it bc they need you ! You’ll have good days and bad but it will get better with time! If you feel like something is off with the baby or your self always trust your gut!
So happy that Baby Soleil is home. She’s such a fighter and The Zapo family is so strong. ❤❤❤ thank you for sharing
Balling. 😭💖 Soleil is genuinely stronger than so many of us could ever be. I'm so happy for you all. I just want to say that Christian is so sweet, it's so wild to watch him grow up on here. I've been here since you were pregnant with him and he's just grown into the sweetest little boy and it makes my boy mama heart burst. Thank you for sharing your life with us, you owe the internet nothing and you've been through so much in your life are so strong to share all of that on here. Sending so much love 💖
So happy she is finally home. You all are warriors! God bless your family ❤
Am so happy that you can get your baby home. Praying for you and your family. I truly don't understand how people can complain about how other people live😢. It's so mind blowing. I mean if you dont like her content don't watch,its so simple. Bringing other people down is never good
You are so strong. The strongest mom, keep your family first as you've been doing. Everyday is such a blessing and you are doing it 💓 ✨️ all my love to you and your family
So raw, so beautiful, so REAL. Thank you for bringing it all to us. It is the absolute hardest thing to both live it and then re-live it for an audience. So happy that your family is together ❤️❤️🎉🎉
My goodness, Olivia. Please don’t feel like you even have to explain why you haven’t been as active on social media. At the end of the day, this is your life and your family’s life not all of your subscribers. I will be praying for you and your family, especially, for Soleil. May she continue to fight through any obstacle. She is truly such a warrior. Sending you and your family a big hug. I’m so happy for you all to have your family together at home. 🤗
Been following you for awhile Olivia. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I love watching all your videos and I love how real you are. Take any break you need. ❤ your loyal “fans” will be here. Thinking about you and your family and I hope things only get better for you.
May God bless all your babies and your family. Thank you for sharing as much as you do. I have been praying for Soleil to come home. So happy to see this. You are an amazing and strong mama. Your children have a great role model for them! ❤
You and your family are soooo strong. Medically complex children are so beautiful and strong. I joined a Facebook group for families with trach children to help me get through times with my own medically complex son. He was also trach and g-tube. Knowing there are other families in the same situation really helps. Sending you lots of love and prayers.
You weee chosen to be these girls momma and parents for a reason! Congratulations for having your girls home and good luck on your journey!! She is where she needs to be!🫶🫶
Olivia, you don't have to apologize at all. You are an amazing mommy and I completely understand the break you needed. Please do let us know how we can be of support to you. Give yourself some grace -- God will turn this into your testimony and purpose. We admire you and rooting for you
I’m tearing when you told the story. I cannot imagine what your family going through. I’m so happy that she is alive and home with your family 😊 she is a fighter and so strong!
🥹 both of my boys were NICU babies for a short amount of time. It will always make you cry, at least for me it still does. Caring and loving your kiddos makes you a good mama. The relief of graduation day is very emotional, ups and downs. You've got this, you guys are doing an amazing job. And such beautiful children ❤
I started tearing up before I even watched. So happy for your family 💙💙💕💕
This was such an emotional and beautiful story. I am a mother of two and cannot imagine experiencing what you’ve been through. Love your channel and love you too! Sending prayers and love your way!
