    I am one of those "silent watchers" hahah I know this video was posted a year ago... but I've been binge watching all your baby videos because I am pregnant with our first and your methods/lifestyle is very close to my own and what I want for my future family! 🥰 Thank you for being so transparent in your pregnancy/first year/breast feeding journey! It is so refreshing to see!

      Consider working as a au pair or nanny for a period. It's a great way to get an idea of the day to day work involved with young children while being able to enjoy hanging out with kids often.

      @@5Seed yeah so I'm planning on studying to become a high-school chemistry and maths teacher. And nannies aren't a typical thing where I live. Families usually live close to grandparents so they use them for looking after their kids. I know it sounds bad like this but I can't really explain it any better. Sorry. And also I hate traveling because I love to be with my family so no au pair 😄

    I recently learned that I am pregnant and being that I am only 19 it’s been scary trying to learn as much as possible before I give birth. For some reason I always figured that older parents just had it figured out way before they gave birth, but I’ve slowly come to learn that all new moms are about as lost as I am. I’ve been doing so much research and watching so many video and I came across this channel on the search and was absolutely delighted to see a lovely mom and her adorable baby girl. It’s been a pleasure watching these video to gain some knowledge while also getting the pleasure of watching Sage be the cutest little thing. I love this channel so much and have been binging every video!! Getting to see Nikole’s whole journey has been very comforting because I feel that I’m not alone in my journey.

    My son was born last month and now I'm binging on your postpartum videos as and when I can (especially while I breastfeed him). And just like your other content, even these videos are just SOO informative and helpful!
    I'm one of those silent watchers that you mentioned in this video who has never commented on anything, but trust me when I say this.. I am one of your biggest fans and admirers!!
