My newborn is a week old and I’ve been watching video after video and reading up on how to take care of a newborn,Plus my mom has helped SO much! Thank you!!
Having help makes it a lot easier. Relax, and know that this stage will pass before you know it. They grow up so quickly, enjoy, and love ❤️ your baby 👶 . Don't forget to ask for help when you need it.
Last piece of advice is important. Grace for you, grace for your baby, grace for your husband, grace for other children. Grace is needed. Your trying to figure out that little new born, and that little new born is trying to figure out life.
hel get used to it he's probaly so used to all the noisey sounds and beeps etc from the NICU hel adjust to home and get used to it 😊 all the best with your baby
Looking for a comment like this my son never napped during the day and hardly slept at night, lucky if I managed 4 hours of sleep a night. He did his first full night at five when he started school 😂
I still remember every push, their scent when they were born. Everything. And they are 30 and 24. Cherish every moment, time flies by so fast! All the best! ❤
I love the newborn stage. I remember when my little brother was born, it was such a peaceful, bonding experience for us considering I was the last baby in the house for a while.
I'm in this stage right now and I am utterly exhausted. I love my baby boy. I appreciate all the other Moms giving the advice about enjoying this stage. I know I will miss it one day. I'm just trying to soak it all in.
Parents need support too in the intensity of the newborn stage. Do you have supportive friends or a postpartum doula to help some so you don’t feel the struggle as much? Just curious.
Yes❤ Do not afraid baby get attached.. they're just a baby. Brace up your mind that you're a mother. You'll missed this moment when they're grown up and never wanted being cuddle and kissed by us❤
My son is going to be 9 months tomorrow it goes by soooooo fast! To be honest though I feel like the newborn stage was the easiest lol. It gets harder in my opinion. He’s my second and much more demanding than my daughter was, but even with her I thought it gets harder the older they get. Takes pics and videos though for the memories 😊😊😊😊😊
Same here, just had my first baby. I cried so much when I brought her home knowing this time will pass so quickly. I wish I could pause time for a while. She's so cute.
oct 14th? if so, our babies are birthday twins. God bless you and your baby! I'm trying to soak it all in. I love him so much despite the sleep deprivation. I also never knew I could love someone this much
with my first newborn,who hardly slept at all the first year, I used to stand by the window at nights with him in my arms(he slept deep and nice when I stood up with him..)and look at the few lights from other windows,and say to myself "that apartment has a sleepless baby, that apartment has a sleepless baby, that.." it soothed me incredibly well thinking every building had some sleepless babies, I wasn't alone with one!
We joke with my baby brother that we got 2 weeks of the 16 hour sleep and then he wanted to be invited to the function 😂 he wanted to be up so much that he came a whole 2 months early
Ooh poor you may not be getting enough to eat put tsp ceral rice r oatmeal make formula thicker feel the belly up what i had to do with my son he wanted eat all time wouldnt sleep oly dozed here there
First month was a little tiresome 😢 but then we really started to understand his needs and moods, when he was tired, cranky, hungry, happy, silly, and just happy to be in the moment 😊 and then the joyous moment of developing a happy, consistent sleep routine!!! We all slept better in our house! We all slept and we’re a much less stressed household ❤❤❤ We really worked with developing a sleep routine that helped him sleep more restfully 😊 I put a vibrating paddle under his mattress, a calming white noise machine in his room and a wedge pillow to help with any reflux or spit up while sleeping 😴 it was the magic combination. It put him into a deep slumber 😊😊😊
Well done, congratulations. Learn all you can, I didn't know that there are little in-built signs they give out. Enjoy every minute now and as they grow up. Before you know it, they're 21, 30, 40! OMG, where did the time go. Best wishes to your future ❤️
Pediatrician told us that baby has to be around 13 pounds in order to sleep through the night. And the first night this happens new parents will awaken in a panic wondering what is wrong.
Yep. I would lose sleep with my first just from checking on her lol the camera didn’t show me if she was breathing I had to check myself at least 2-3 times a night :p
My son weighed 9-4 at birth and didn’t sleep through the night until he was 18 months old. Who knows why. There is no set formula that applies to all babies. It’s a total crap shoot.
My wife and I are going into our 3rd week with our 1st newborn. I miss sleeping!! 😂 I’m lucky enough to have 3 months off with her. Our baby literally feeds every two hours! No need for an alarm clock she will let us know! Patience is key and try to plan and prep ahead if you can. It makes the small things a bit easier 👍🏽
I wish my newborn would eat every 2 hours! Even after a good feed, she wakes up after 20 minutes! Literally and just cries so loudly and wants more food. I feel so hopeless what to do. She does this 24 hours.
@@erilivia every child is definitely different but just keep in mind that it won’t last forever. She will eventually eat more and sleep a bit longer. 👍🏽👍🏽
I dont have my own Baby, though I Love babies AND children s I am so blessed that I am assigned in NICU/NURSERY and PICU as well. Just Love what I am doing as a nurse.
I found it to be a whole lot easier than chasing an 14-month-old around and dealing with the food all over the floors and in their hair, the temper flares, and the sleep issues.
So excited for this stage! Currently expecting my 2nd baby & I remember it being so difficult but now that my oldest is 4 I long for the nights where all is quiet & it’s just you & baby. The phase goes by the quickest. It’s tough but so is trying to please a toddler 😂 every stage has its peaks & pits no doubt
As a dad supporting my wife after a c section I can tell you this video has helped a lot cause I kept picking him up and walking with him around my arms while doing other things got a 10yr old to take care of so having todo this again sometimes you forget the basics
My baby is easy ❤😊 he's gonna have a lot of attitude when he gets older, I can already tell! He's hitting 3mo milestones at 3 weeks 😅 he slept through the night last night... I woke up first, in a panic, to feed him. Usually he wakes me up after 3-5hrs (I sleep on the couch next to his bassinet) but this time I woke up-- after over 6 hours! I felt so guilty but he's a happy little camper today 😊 he's napping in the wrap right now
Sad to see so many parents who lack sleep. My mom told me that when I was born, I didn't cry. Never cried to get anything. They had to check on me to see if I was alright because of how silent I was... saddly, they don't serve me anymore, at 20 I'm the one doing the cleaning😹
And surround yourself with people that only bring positivity. This time is hard enough without negative energy, or people around you. Regardless, regardless of who it is, whether it be mother-in-law, sister-in-law, or even your spouse, don’t let the negative energy in. Focus on your baby And heal ❤
@@aishaahmed2429 Sometimes it's helpful when someone agrees that it's tough and gives you "permission" to feel tired and overwhelmed, rather than telling you it's a magical time you should be enjoying, which can just make you feel guilty or inferior if you're struggling. 😕
Live in a newborn' shoes if you think you are suffering. Newborns go through huge changes from birth. Just within seconds they are exposed to: Oxygen, bright lights, sharp sounds (never experienced before), Space, temperature changes (first time out of the cosy warm mum's belly). Then digestion. Good luck babies, mummies and dadies❤❤❤
Excuse me don't you know that babies don't live in belly's or are you to affaid to say the word womb.. It makes me feel ashamed that a grow woman is like belly ughhh
@@kimholland4822 Are you afraid* to spell properly, or perhaps to use proper punctuation? It makes me feel ashamed that a grown woman has less language acuity than my 9 year old child. Furthermore, “belly” is used to refer colloquially to any abdominopelvic organs, including the uterus. Are you afraid to use the proper medical term, “uterus”? Why must you use the layperson’s term “womb”, then? You need to become a lot more educated if you want to be condescending to others.
@@kimholland4822 The "belly" encompasses the whole abdominal area, including the womb, guts, other internal organs etc. You may be thinking of "tummy" which is a pet name for "stomach", and yeah babies don't live in the mother's stomach!
Not for me. The newborn stage sucks. The toddler stage is so much more fun. Sure they follow you around and get into everything. Their laughs, smiles, and run when they find out their in trouble is so adorable.
@@AVKryshtalagreed. Newborn stage sucks. No sleep but I still need to wake up for work, work all day, come home late, take care of baby etc and it’s night time and the cycle restarts with a baby crying every 2 hours max
The newborn stage was the easiest stage with my first, she was such a calm and quiet baby.. I’m due September 29th with my second kiddo and I’m hoping for an easy newborn stage shin but I am ready to embrace the chaos as well! 🩷
Kaiser told me to wake up my baby every two hours to feed, even though was not lacking healthy weight. I think the doctor just didn't listen to me about what I was explaining about breastfeeding issues. I had unique problems due to my breasts and because I listened to the doctor my baby wasn't helped, I couldn't pump efficiently and yet my breasts were excruciatingly full of milk. I was so tired and depressed I didn't reach out to anyone for a second opinion. Always get a second opinion if you don't get help the first time. Also parental intuition is very underrated.
@BRITTANYFREI If you ever need help with breastfeeding contact the La Leche League. They're a breastfeeding organization that's been around for almost one hundred years. I read their book when I was in the hospital with my first baby at 18. I went onto successfully breastfeed all eight of my babies until they were two, including my twins
As a first time parent our pediatrician told us to wake NB every 2 hours for feeding ….. I was beyond exhausted and I hear people say just let them sleep 🙁
Let sleeping babies sleep. They will wake when they are hungry. By waking them up your changing their sleep pattern. And they won't feed properly. As long as they aren't sleeping for to long. 3 hours in the day and 4 half at night. Sleep when they sleep. Do as little as possible house work as long as the place is cleanish. Then who cares 😊
My baby Isaac is turning one month old this Saturday ❤🎉 Honestly it's been really tiring but he's aware since day one he moved his head and looked all over the place I was amazed tbh he's so alert and he moves a lot 😂 He also recognizes my mom's voice 😮 My memory card is full of him ❤ I miss my sleep 😴
The newborn stage was extremely hard for me. For the first several weeks, i thought i regretted having my son. I went from sleeping 7 to 10 hours a day to 4 to 6 hours a day. My son is going to be 1 soon and i couldn't be more grateful for the toddler stage. I can finally sleep for 6 hours uninterrupted.
Owh the memories🥰🙏🏼🥰 My youngest is 3 and my oldest is 17!!! 🥰🥰🥰 This is definitely the easiest baby stage!!!! Take all the pics and vids!! Time zooms!!! 🚀🚀🚀
I trained my son day from night at 6 weeks old prior to me going back to work so that he could sleep when I slept to not be up all night. He wpuld stay awake in the daytime & take 1 nap while in daycare. He woke up 1 time at night to feed. And he was the best baby I could ask for. ❤
Yes! My parents need to hear the 1st one. It's like they forgot. They keep telling me to put my baby on a schedule and I'm like he's too young! I gotta work with his schedule
You're perants are from a different generation. And believe it or not a young baby can be put on a sleep schedule. You just need to work out when they are most likely to sleep and slowly change them the way you want them to sleep. Feed 5 minutes after thay wake up. For a week then if you want them to go the other way wake them up 2 minutes this takes longer but as babies don't sleep very long at first then it will work. Just work at it and be patient
My newborn is 5 days old and if anything it’s hard to get her awake for tummy time! Haha 😂 it’s definitely super hard, but a precious time. Thank you for #4 I need to remember to give myself grace during this time 😪
9 days old my boy is! And we’re having better feeding times and more sleep in between! It’s still hard and I had my moms help in the beginning! My fingers are crossed I can still find a good sleep pattern for me when baby does go down to sleep ❤
You can start a routine as soon as soon as you take your baby home IF that is what will make you a more relaxed parent. I did it with both and it saved my sanity and helped me connect and understand both my babies.
My new born is 4 days old, hes my first and we just brought him home and I agree, it is tough...he had us up all night the last 2 nights and decides to sleep during the day. We burp him, feed him and try to put him in his rocker but nothing works until that sun is up.
With my first child I used to bribe myself to make it through hard nights. I would promise myself that when the sun comes up I’m going out for coffee. I needed something to look forward to when the night felt endless. There was also a store I used to go to where he would fall asleep consistently. I went there all the time! An employee noticed I was there a lot and mentioned it one day. I told her, “This is the only place my baby sleeps!” And she laughed. She was an older lady and I think she remembered what it was like with a newborn.
I was blessed! Both of my babies where so nice to me. It was exhausting for the first 3-4 weeks but after that I was getting good nights rest. I had to schedule alarm to wake up my second baby to feed him, he would sleep long stretches at night.
My baby is 5 weeks today!!!! He is getting so strong and makes eye contact now. He really is a strong boy bc when he kicks his feet, he almost jumps out of my arms. 😅 Keeps me on my toes!
My son is almost a year old now and even though I didn’t get much sleep I still miss it, watching the little scrunchy faces and him trying to smile and figure out what facial expressions were and then watching him look at his hands in awe and wonder, and doing the same with his feet when he could finally lift them high enough to look at, and watching him sleep in was funny cuz of all the expressions he made. It was fun and funny exhausting but fun.
My son is 2 weeks old. He weighs 5 lbs and is a little snuggle bug. Let me tell you, I'm exhausted beyond words. Some nights have been long and difficult but I know I'm going to miss these days. I cherish every day with him. 💙
My boy is 7 months and I miss him being teeny tiny!! But it is also awesome to have him be older at the same time. Newborn stage is dang hard, but I loved it.
My newborn stage was really easy she got herself into a routine I found the teething stage really hard she had 14 teeth by her 1st birthday literally had 4 molars cutting at the same time that was the hard stage for me and my husband and of course our baby girl bless her x
I miss that stage 😢 it difficult as sleep hormones learning to manage everything yes but oh boy teens well late teens sooo much harder well for me anyway 😅 to any new mummy/daddy u got this!!! ❤
My 4 year old was best his 1st year. Now he's an angel in disguise. He's great around other people but just way too much to handle when it's just him and I. He's asleep by 9p and up at 4a then doesn't nap all day and he lies down at 8p. It's 1030p now and he's telling me how he don't need sleep and that he has better things to do. Sometimes I don't care if he stays up till midnight on weekends because he'll be up at 5a or 6a anyways. His mom says he's asleep at 830p when she has him but I don't think he really is.
Mine is almost 2 now but all of these are absolutely facts! Mama's, take all those pictures, fill your camera roll. I miss whwn he couldn't destroy a room in .5seconds😂 Also.. new mamas... those dishes will be there later. Take. A. Nap! Take yourself some downtime. You're doing the hardest job❤ (and you're absolutely doing a wonderful job! I dont care what the 3am thoughts say❤)
You can and you should put them on a sleep and feeding schedule. They might fall out of sync a little bit but it's important they have some type of routine for your own sanity.
Id give another tip: know your limits! When your patients is running low know when its time to ask your spouse/partner to take over for you. Your baby will cry and cry a lot it is normal but it is hard for us adults to handle bc we cant figure out why so we get frustrated, especially at 2am. Its not weakness to hand the baby off, its safety. Better to hand your little one off than risk possibly doing something you will regret
My first baby cried, but my other seven including a set of twins, never cried unless they were hungry. The trick is to do "baby calisthenics" every time you change their diaper. Knee to opposite elbow on each side, then lift their legs up to their tummy and gently push. This releases trapped gas in their tummies and makes for much happier baby
That's very reassuring to hear that sleep is unpredictable. You should add on a rule- something about the mother having quiet time alone and somehow telling her she's doing a great job no matter what! Moms need that reassurance from time to time.😅
Not bragging but I had my son after I was told I was infertal !😮😢. I had him at 42. He was absolutely put on schedule and was a dream! Schedule is a must
Me and my wife just had our baby girl less than a day ago and I can’t sleep with the idea of her choking from spitting up the amniotic fluid! It scares me every time, I rush up and pick her up and start suctioning it away from her mouth 😩
I loved carrying all mine in a papoose snuggled up against me it was almost like they was still in my womb. And I'm sure that it not only helped them sleep but we have a closer bond a better understanding of each other. Now they are grown. They was very advanced for their age to. Hand eye coordination recognition of thing's walking talking
I love the newborn stage. I honestly think it's the easiest. There is nothing I love more than precious baby cuddles. My baby is 6 weeks old, and I'm so sad this phase is almost over.
They can sleep a lot more than 16h in The beginning. Both mine slept over 20h in The First few weeks. Now that My youngest is 6,5 weeks old he sleeps about 18-20hours at least
Tucker could you please make a separate clip for when they explain that many infertility cases could be helped by nutrition where Big Pharma would be better served by IVF? It is not popular to say this. People want a high tech solution when they really need to change their lifestyle.

❤❤❤ Its already hard. We don't need people telling us it's hard
Yes to the support system. People who validate you and are there to help both the parents and baby as a family adapt to this new normal.
@@aishaahmed2429 Sometimes it's helpful when someone agrees that it's tough and gives you "permission" to feel tired and overwhelmed, rather than telling you it's a magical time you should be enjoying, which can just make you feel guilty or inferior if you're struggling. 😕
@@maddythelion All of your comments are excellent.
Live in a newborn' shoes if you think you are suffering. Newborns go through huge changes from birth. Just within seconds they are exposed to:
Oxygen, bright lights, sharp sounds (never experienced before),
Space, temperature changes (first time out of the cosy warm mum's belly).
Then digestion.
Good luck babies, mummies and dadies❤❤❤
Excuse me don't you know that babies don't live in belly's or are you to affaid to say the word womb.. It makes me feel ashamed that a grow woman is like belly ughhh
@@kimholland4822 Are you afraid* to spell properly, or perhaps to use proper punctuation? It makes me feel ashamed that a grown woman has less language acuity than my 9 year old child.
Furthermore, “belly” is used to refer colloquially to any abdominopelvic organs, including the uterus. Are you afraid to use the proper medical term, “uterus”? Why must you use the layperson’s term “womb”, then?
You need to become a lot more educated if you want to be condescending to others.
Lots and lots for newborn’s still-developing nervous system to adapt to including what it feels like to be hungry. Sensory overload, certainly.
@@kimholland4822 The "belly" encompasses the whole abdominal area, including the womb, guts, other internal organs etc. You may be thinking of "tummy" which is a pet name for "stomach", and yeah babies don't live in the mother's stomach!
Thank you! I really needed to here this my MIL keeps telling me to sleep train my newborn and I’ve tried… makes sense why I haven’t been able to
The newborn stage is the best. As soon as they start walking things get hard😂
I loved the newborn stage, too.
Not for me. The newborn stage sucks. The toddler stage is so much more fun. Sure they follow you around and get into everything. Their laughs, smiles, and run when they find out their in trouble is so adorable.
Newborn stage is too hard😢my baby 36 days old always crying 😭
Not for me,i hardly recognised myself 😢
@@AVKryshtalagreed. Newborn stage sucks. No sleep but I still need to wake up for work, work all day, come home late, take care of baby etc and it’s night time and the cycle restarts with a baby crying every 2 hours max
The newborn stage was the easiest stage with my first, she was such a calm and quiet baby.. I’m due September 29th with my second kiddo and I’m hoping for an easy newborn stage shin but I am ready to embrace the chaos as well! 🩷
Kaiser told me to wake up my baby every two hours to feed, even though was not lacking healthy weight. I think the doctor just didn't listen to me about what I was explaining about breastfeeding issues. I had unique problems due to my breasts and because I listened to the doctor my baby wasn't helped, I couldn't pump efficiently and yet my breasts were excruciatingly full of milk. I was so tired and depressed I didn't reach out to anyone for a second opinion. Always get a second opinion if you don't get help the first time. Also parental intuition is very underrated.
@BRITTANYFREI If you ever need help with breastfeeding contact the La Leche League. They're a breastfeeding organization that's been around for almost one hundred years. I read their book when I was in the hospital with my first baby at 18. I went onto successfully breastfeed all eight of my babies until they were two, including my twins
I found my newborns to be really easy, they sleep for so much of the day.
As a first time parent our pediatrician told us to wake NB every 2 hours for feeding ….. I was beyond exhausted and I hear people say just let them sleep 🙁
Same ..
Let sleeping babies sleep. They will wake when they are hungry. By waking them up your changing their sleep pattern. And they won't feed properly. As long as they aren't sleeping for to long. 3 hours in the day and 4 half at night. Sleep when they sleep. Do as little as possible house work as long as the place is cleanish. Then who cares 😊
A lot depends on the baby's weight
Would not wake a full term baby up every 2 hours
My baby Isaac is turning one month old this Saturday ❤🎉 Honestly it's been really tiring but he's aware since day one he moved his head and looked all over the place I was amazed tbh he's so alert and he moves a lot 😂 He also recognizes my mom's voice 😮 My memory card is full of him ❤ I miss my sleep 😴
The newborn stage was extremely hard for me. For the first several weeks, i thought i regretted having my son. I went from sleeping 7 to 10 hours a day to 4 to 6 hours a day. My son is going to be 1 soon and i couldn't be more grateful for the toddler stage. I can finally sleep for 6 hours uninterrupted.
😮😢
Her sense of wonder at God's green earth and its produce is inspiring.
Owh the memories🥰🙏🏼🥰
My youngest is 3 and my oldest is 17!!!
🥰🥰🥰
This is definitely the easiest baby stage!!!! Take all the pics and vids!!
Time zooms!!! 🚀🚀🚀
I trained my son day from night at 6 weeks old prior to me going back to work so that he could sleep when I slept to not be up all night. He wpuld stay awake in the daytime & take 1 nap while in daycare. He woke up 1 time at night to feed. And he was the best baby I could ask for. ❤
Yes! My parents need to hear the 1st one. It's like they forgot. They keep telling me to put my baby on a schedule and I'm like he's too young! I gotta work with his schedule
You're perants are from a different generation. And believe it or not a young baby can be put on a sleep schedule. You just need to work out when they are most likely to sleep and slowly change them the way you want them to sleep. Feed 5 minutes after thay wake up. For a week then if you want them to go the other way wake them up 2 minutes this takes longer but as babies don't sleep very long at first then it will work. Just work at it and be patient
My newborn is 5 days old and if anything it’s hard to get her awake for tummy time! Haha 😂 it’s definitely super hard, but a precious time. Thank you for #4 I need to remember to give myself grace during this time 😪
Tummy time? What about feedimg first or change nappy.
@@MaryMoltonhe or she refused to wakeup and get foods😂😂until the 2months
You can also let her sleep in a baby carrier or on your chest to have some tummy time / upright position to protect her head from getting flat.
Happy mummy happy baby 😊
@@MaryMoltonshe means feeding 😂
9 days old my boy is! And we’re having better feeding times and more sleep in between! It’s still hard and I had my moms help in the beginning! My fingers are crossed I can still find a good sleep pattern for me when baby does go down to sleep ❤
You can start a routine as soon as soon as you take your baby home IF that is what will make you a more relaxed parent. I did it with both and it saved my sanity and helped me connect and understand both my babies.
Im 13 but my aunt has twins and im visiting them in two weeks im honestly so exited
why did you leave?
@ we have a huge family some in dubai and others in canada or qatar or pakistan, and they have a nanny since they both have rlly busy jobs
My dad used to say: the reason god made kids so cute is so you wouldn’t throw them out the window.
😂
My new born is 4 days old, hes my first and we just brought him home and I agree, it is tough...he had us up all night the last 2 nights and decides to sleep during the day. We burp him, feed him and try to put him in his rocker but nothing works until that sun is up.
With my first child I used to bribe myself to make it through hard nights. I would promise myself that when the sun comes up I’m going out for coffee. I needed something to look forward to when the night felt endless. There was also a store I used to go to where he would fall asleep consistently. I went there all the time! An employee noticed I was there a lot and mentioned it one day. I told her, “This is the only place my baby sleeps!” And she laughed. She was an older lady and I think she remembered what it was like with a newborn.
They're so precious at that stage.
❤️😘👶
This stage is so hard, but I loved every minute of it. They grow up too fast❤
this helped with my newborn's sleep thank you
Idk if I was just super blessed with very amenable babies, but I had them both completely sleep trained by six weeks!
Beautiful babies. Newborns are the cutest.
I was blessed! Both of my babies where so nice to me. It was exhausting for the first 3-4 weeks but after that I was getting good nights rest.
I had to schedule alarm to wake up my second baby to feed him, he would sleep long stretches at night.
My baby is 5 weeks today!!!! He is getting so strong and makes eye contact now. He really is a strong boy bc when he kicks his feet, he almost jumps out of my arms. 😅 Keeps me on my toes!
My son is almost a year old now and even though I didn’t get much sleep I still miss it, watching the little scrunchy faces and him trying to smile and figure out what facial expressions were and then watching him look at his hands in awe and wonder, and doing the same with his feet when he could finally lift them high enough to look at, and watching him sleep in was funny cuz of all the expressions he made. It was fun and funny exhausting but fun.
My son is 2 weeks old. He weighs 5 lbs and is a little snuggle bug. Let me tell you, I'm exhausted beyond words. Some nights have been long and difficult but I know I'm going to miss these days. I cherish every day with him. 💙
My heart breaks when I see and hear a poor sweet little baby cry🥺👶🏼
The newborn stage is the cutest stage for babies, but I'm glad I'm over that part. Hard is an UNDERSTATEMENT!!
Allah sb ko ye time dikhay.. Ameen suma ameen❤
My favorite stage! I love them all but newborns are so precious! Fresh from spending time with Jesus!❤
My boy is 7 months and I miss him being teeny tiny!! But it is also awesome to have him be older at the same time. Newborn stage is dang hard, but I loved it.
I just had my daughter nov 10 .. it is now Nov 23rd 🫶🏼 time is flying so fast she’s already a week and three days
My newborn stage was really easy she got herself into a routine I found the teething stage really hard she had 14 teeth by her 1st birthday literally had 4 molars cutting at the same time that was the hard stage for me and my husband and of course our baby girl bless her x
This is why God made them adorable...It's impossible to get angry with them.💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank god my baby boy rarely kept me awake at night. He used to wake up only when he was hungry n used to fall asleep very easily 😊
I miss that stage 😢 it difficult as sleep hormones learning to manage everything yes but oh boy teens well late teens sooo much harder well for me anyway 😅 to any new mummy/daddy u got this!!! ❤
My 4 year old was best his 1st year. Now he's an angel in disguise. He's great around other people but just way too much to handle when it's just him and I. He's asleep by 9p and up at 4a then doesn't nap all day and he lies down at 8p. It's 1030p now and he's telling me how he don't need sleep and that he has better things to do. Sometimes I don't care if he stays up till midnight on weekends because he'll be up at 5a or 6a anyways. His mom says he's asleep at 830p when she has him but I don't think he really is.
My 20 day old newborn already has a routine and sleeps at night time x
How to do that?
Mine is almost 2 now but all of these are absolutely facts! Mama's, take all those pictures, fill your camera roll. I miss whwn he couldn't destroy a room in .5seconds😂
Also.. new mamas... those dishes will be there later. Take. A. Nap! Take yourself some downtime. You're doing the hardest job❤ (and you're absolutely doing a wonderful job! I dont care what the 3am thoughts say❤)
You can and you should put them on a sleep and feeding schedule. They might fall out of sync a little bit but it's important they have some type of routine for your own sanity.
Awesome video!✨
I share newborn tips on my channel too, and this was super helpful!
Thanks for making this video! 👶
Id give another tip: know your limits! When your patients is running low know when its time to ask your spouse/partner to take over for you. Your baby will cry and cry a lot it is normal but it is hard for us adults to handle bc we cant figure out why so we get frustrated, especially at 2am. Its not weakness to hand the baby off, its safety. Better to hand your little one off than risk possibly doing something you will regret
My first baby cried, but my other seven including a set of twins, never cried unless they were hungry. The trick is to do "baby calisthenics" every time you change their diaper. Knee to opposite elbow on each side, then lift their legs up to their tummy and gently push. This releases trapped gas in their tummies and makes for much happier baby
They will only be this age once, enjoy every second of it!
My sisters newborn slept through the night (9pm to 4am) right from birth! Every baby is different
That's very reassuring to hear that sleep is unpredictable. You should add on a rule- something about the mother having quiet time alone and somehow telling her she's doing a great job no matter what! Moms need that reassurance from time to time.😅
Excellent advice for new parents!!
That was my favorite stage. I loved when my daughter was a newborn. I miss it so much.
Number 5 : boys are absoluty cute, sofe and adorable. Love you little boys. 😇😇♥️♥️
Not bragging but I had my son after I was told I was infertal !😮😢. I had him at 42. He was absolutely put on schedule and was a dream! Schedule is a must
This is so true! Not other influencer are full of crap about new born
Everyone let’s remember EVERYONE’S baby is different.
l.know been there was hard at first but evenly it git better God bless my son
BABY ❤😊 SUPERB ❤🎉😊🎉❤
It’s hard but damn the toddler stage is something else 😩😅 take me back to newborn stage please 😂
Me and my wife just had our baby girl less than a day ago and I can’t sleep with the idea of her choking from spitting up the amniotic fluid! It scares me every time, I rush up and pick her up and start suctioning it away from her mouth 😩
I loved carrying all mine in a papoose snuggled up against me it was almost like they was still in my womb. And I'm sure that it not only helped them sleep but we have a closer bond a better understanding of each other. Now they are grown. They was very advanced for their age to. Hand eye coordination recognition of thing's walking talking
Love the newborn stage the most. The Living Cabbage Patch Kids are so cute at the stage that I love the most. (Human babies)
You can put them on feeding/waking/napping schedule. Read Babywise.
I love the newborn stage. I honestly think it's the easiest. There is nothing I love more than precious baby cuddles. My baby is 6 weeks old, and I'm so sad this phase is almost over.
I miss that stage. Now we have to run around the house to catch him 😂 may god protect all children
"Sleeping off the birth" made me think we were blessed with a great sleeper... Little did I know..
They sleep better in the dark! Tried using the halo sleep light and it didn't help
They can sleep a lot more than 16h in The beginning. Both mine slept over 20h in The First few weeks. Now that My youngest is 6,5 weeks old he sleeps about 18-20hours at least
Look at lil baby ❤😊
Tucker could you please make a separate clip for when they explain that many infertility cases could be helped by nutrition where Big Pharma would be better served by IVF?
It is not popular to say this. People want a high tech solution when they really need to change their lifestyle.
