Just a tip!! No judgment! But when you're waiting for your milk, you still want to be nursing your baby because that will help the milk come in faster!! And it will help increase your supply to your babies demand!
Can’t believe baby boy is already born! That’s so exciting! Hope you are all enjoying and soaking in the newborn bliss. We can’t wait to see mommy Rachel era
Not me crying so hard watching this. I started following you because I was going through infertility also. And today I’m 6w5d pregnant with my first embryo transfer. Seeing you become a mom has brought me so much happiness and hope. Praying for you and baby!
Omg girl this is so full circle - watching you go through infertility and IVF and now having your baby!!! I’m balling because I’m 23w2d preggo and in my feels hahaha
This is crazy to think while im watching & loving your last pregnancy video, you have your baby boy. Congratulations Rachel! Been watching you since the beginning if your ttc journey! We also struggled for 3 years & im 25 weeks now Time is flying! ❤
All mummas worrying about milk supply on first few days, your baby’s stomach is the size of a grape with capacity of 5-7 ml until day 3 - 22-27 ml, so they really don’t need a lot and your body will produce exactly enough colostrum to fill them up!
I started watching you when i was trying to concive. It is amazing that now both of us are mothers to baby boys. I hope everything went well! Enjoy your new life as a mom! It is amazing ❤
I'm so grateful to have been following along your pregnancy journey while I am pregnant too. I am due next month, but this has truly been surreal. I felt like I had a pregnancy buddy with me this whole time. Thank you for your content. Can't wait to see the baby and the 4th trimester! 💜
I watched your finding out your pregnant video a week or two ago getting excited to get pregnant (bc my husband and I started trying) and last night I got my first positive test!!
Your journey as a whole is amazing.. I think we’re all emotional with you watching this haha. I remember you making your vision board for the new year and how you wanted this baby so bad and now he’s almost (is) here❤️
My first embryo transfer is scheduled for 12/10 and I’m forever grateful that I found your page.. You’ve helped give me so much hope along this journey! Congratulations mama 🥹🤍
Aww momma! I'm so excited for you! Soak up all the newborn bliss. Sleepless nights are inevitable. Cherish those. It goes by so stinkin fast. I'm pregnant with my second. 28 weeks. Your videos have been keeping me positive.
So happy for you girl!!!!! Motherhood looks great on you! It’s crazy…. When your last video came out, God told me to pray for you and your labor….didn’t realize until this video that you should of already gave birth! Hope you are recovering great! And excited to see baby vinn when the time comes!❤
My cat is a tuxedo cat aswell!!! A you was due the day of my baby shower god bless!!! Team boy mom!! Only 33 weeks had fun watching your journey Rachel🤗🥹
Beautiful vlog!! Congratulations to your baby boy! btw you are right its a scam. In Europe (Germany) Xrays are rare at the dentist and you can always do the cleaning. We actually never get asked about xrays.
Babe wake up 😭 rachel gave birth 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️ May God light your way and continue to guide and bless you three ❤️ thank you for taking us on your journey. This has been surreal. ❤️
I’ll be the advocate for twice a year dental cleanings and visits! My grandma got periodontal disease that turned into cancer due to never going for preventive services in her life!
I've been surviving my IVF journey as well as pregnancy by watching your vlogs! I'm happy to see you almost reach to the delivery date. I'll keep you on my prayer. Would you also remind me what was the supplement you took for leg cramps?
That’s wild about the dentist! When I went while pregnant, I was due for X-rays and they specifically said they won’t do them while one is pregnant. So I agree - sounds like a scam/not real.
Have a safe delivery. Our baby boy is due in January. I was watching your video and you mentioned x-ray and getting your teeth cleaned, being prone to cavities. I would like to give you a title of a book that's a great read. Cure Tooth Decay by Ramiel Nagel, it's an awesome read.
AAH I cant believe its happening soon!! So excited and cant wait to meet the little guy! Praying for a safe and easy delivery for you 🙏 Also no cleaning withou Xray?? Here they never do xray for cleaning... Sounds like a cashgrab for sure!
Hi assistant manager at a dentist office here !! If you are a new patient to the dentist office you 100% need x-rays or if you have x-rays taken in the last 6 months you can have them sent over. Not only is it a liability to the doctor but a disservice to the patient. X-rays are a major part of diagnosing and seeing overall health of the teeth. Cleaning teeth is only part of the check up. 😊
I had that same issue with the dentist when I was pregnant! I just wanted a cleaning and was pregnant so I couldn’t do xrays. She told me to wait until I wasn’t pregnant anymore! But ma’am you know how much harder it’ll be to leave my breastfed baby? I was trying to get in before baby for a reason!
That’s strange about the dentist. I went to the dentist in my 3rd trimester and I was due for x rays. They said they don’t do x rays on pregnant women unless absolutely medically necessary, so we pushed them off until after pregnancy. They said regular cleanings during pregnancy are essential. I would be looking for a new dentist after that.
Okay so the only way for your milk to come in is for your baby to feed from you 😊 your baby will likely cluster feed in the first couple of days after birth which is basically just lots of breastfeeding in small time frames. It’s can be extremely tiring but it’s all part of getting your milk supply to where baby needs it. Which will fluctuate often especially when baby has growth spurts and needs more or less feeds. I really hope your midwife or hospital nurses will tell you all of this anyway
Also that's crazy that that dentist wouldn't clean your teeth with out an xray. They should know that dental care is so important during pregnancy and be understanding about the X-rays
It's totally a scam! We had the same problem with our dentist and we ended up having to leave the practice because they wouldn't see us without getting an xray every time.
I haven’t seen any updates on IG but praying that everything went smoothly and you and Aj have your healthy precious baby boy!
Just a tip!! No judgment! But when you're waiting for your milk, you still want to be nursing your baby because that will help the milk come in faster!! And it will help increase your supply to your babies demand!
Yes great tip! I wish I had TH-cam when I had my first 2 babies cause I learned so much from the mommas ❤
yesss and your baby's stomach is the size of a grape lol the colostrum you produce is plenty!!
Definitely, it's also helpful to stimulate you breast just before you put them on, I learn this in NICU with my premmies
Thank you for saying this. I wanted to say something but I didn’t know how to word it. I wish people understood our bodies are MADE FOR THIS.
Very important tip! I had my little one last December and working on the breast milk supply was a journey and a half!
Can’t believe baby boy is already born! That’s so exciting! Hope you are all enjoying and soaking in the newborn bliss. We can’t wait to see mommy Rachel era
Not me crying so hard watching this. I started following you because I was going through infertility also. And today I’m 6w5d pregnant with my first embryo transfer. Seeing you become a mom has brought me so much happiness and hope. Praying for you and baby!
Oh my God! That’s so awesome to read comments like that. It brings me hope as well 🤍🫂

Omg girl this is so full circle - watching you go through infertility and IVF and now having your baby!!! I’m balling because I’m 23w2d preggo and in my feels hahaha
Prayers for a safe a healthy delivery!!!! ❤❤
This is crazy to think while im watching & loving your last pregnancy video, you have your baby boy. Congratulations Rachel! Been watching you since the beginning if your ttc journey! We also struggled for 3 years & im 25 weeks now

I was also induced the day after you and now watching while feeding my girl 🥲 I hope everything is going well for you and your family!

Ahhh, so exciting! I’m being induced on the 11th! Praying for you and AJ and baby boy and that all is well. 🙏🏻❤️
Congratulations guys! Hope everything went well. I don't like the dentist either. Never had a good experience with them.
Aww momma! I'm so excited for you! Soak up all the newborn bliss. Sleepless nights are inevitable. Cherish those. It goes by so stinkin fast. I'm pregnant with my second. 28 weeks. Your videos have been keeping me positive.
omg when AJ said "it the baby's comfortable I'm comfortable"💗
Can’t believe this is happening! Went so fast. So exciting! Praying for y’all. ❤
So happy for you girl!!!!! Motherhood looks great on you! It’s crazy…. When your last video came out, God told me to pray for you and your labor….didn’t realize until this video that you should of already gave birth! Hope you are recovering great! And excited to see baby vinn when the time comes!❤

I hope the delivery went smoothly for you and you and baby boy are both doing good.
Can’t wait to see this little one! I had my baby in June after an IUI pregnancy and have been following you since you found out!
Beautiful vlog!! Congratulations to your baby boy!
btw you are right its a scam. In Europe (Germany) Xrays are rare at the dentist and you can always do the cleaning. We actually never get asked about xrays.
Congratulations! I hope you are enjoying your baby and soaking it all in.
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 We thank God for the beautiful journey. We are in awe 💓💓💓
Wow crazy how time flies!! Congratulations on your baby boy. Enjoy every minute of it ❤
Baby must already be here if you were induced the 27th!! Can’t wait for the announcement :)❤
Babe wake up 😭 rachel gave birth 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️ May God light your way and continue to guide and bless you three ❤️ thank you for taking us on your journey. This has been surreal. ❤️
Congratulations Rachel and A.j🎉❤Ive been waiting everyday for the update. I pray everything is well.
I’ll be the advocate for twice a year dental cleanings and visits! My grandma got periodontal disease that turned into cancer due to never going for preventive services in her life!
woah 🤯 thanks for this
I've been surviving my IVF journey as well as pregnancy by watching your vlogs! I'm happy to see you almost reach to the delivery date. I'll keep you on my prayer. Would you also remind me what was the supplement you took for leg cramps?
Omg crazy. I was also induced 39+4 on a Sunday. My baby was born Monday at 3:44pm. You got this!
Make sure if you are supplementing or giving that milk in a bottle you pump because it’s the cluster feeding and nursing that brings in a good supply
Rachel is the best vlog even when getting ready to be induced?
I absolutely cannot wait to see him! Congratulations 🎈🎊🎉
Ahhh love that your going to be nursing 🤱🏽 it’s such a blessing
So happy for you Rachel! I am 4 months pregnant with a baby boy thanks God and IVF
i can see your excitement in your smile :))) i hope everything is going well 🙏🏼
Have a safe delivery Rach! ❤️🙏🏼

Also no cleaning withou Xray?? Here they never do xray for cleaning... Sounds like a cashgrab for sure!

Honestly, so frustrating!
Happy Halloween, Rachel!🎃🎃👻👻
Your friend giving you her breast milk 🥺❤️ your village is here
Can i ask why they induced you?

Is it normal to give another woman's milk to your baby? Only maybe if it's last resort?..
Hi! I’m the friend who gave her the milk! It’s just in case of an emergency. 😊
@ right, got it
