    Thank you for letting me share this 💗 I can’t wait for what the future holds! See you in the next outfitting video 🌟 xoxo
    Edit: this was filmed a month ago! (Took me a while to edit) 😋 So I’ve technically now already moved house and had my mum to visit. Can’t wait to show you the new place 🥰 x

    Congratulations on your pregnancy. I’m so sorry that you had a hard but glad you feel better now. It’s ok to cry. We women and our doctors should talk more about our feelings through pregnancy. I was so fearful during my pregnancies (that was a long time ago) that I could not enjoy it and I was afraid to tell my feelings. It’s good you could tell your family. Praying for you and your blessed little boy. I always enjoy your videos.

    I have lifted you up in prayer a few times these past few months just because you came to mind and I felt you needed it. So awesome to hear you are going to be a mom. I am almost 67 and had my first baby at 40 and second at 43. They are the most amazing part of my life. They grow and change and you will change with them. Just treasure all of it because it never stays the same.

    I couldn't believe it when I saw the notification pop up! I have been hoping and praying you were well. You are always so thoughtful and kind in your videos. My daughter was my morning sickness monster. She only gives me headaches now😉 Congratulations to you both and will be praying for your health and that of your son as well❤️

    I remember many years ago when I was pregnant with my third child, I experienced my first panic attack in the middle of the night. I was sound asleep and it woke me up. My OB told me that it’s not uncommon. There are so many things about pregnancy no one ever tells you. Like during my second pregnancy I had so many dental problems and couldn’t take pain medication to help. I’m so glad you are doing better. Sending love and light your way for continued healing. 😁🥰🙏🏻

    Many pregnancies are not a «I am glowing on my pink fluffy cloud of bliss» pregnancy 😔 A very similar thing happened to a dear friend of mine where she was sooo miserable, in pain and ill that often she couldn’t even be excited about it anymore while all around everyone is only saying «congrats! so wonderful! you must be so happy!» She felt so guilty because she felt so ill and unhappy. It sucks. It just sucks. For my friend things much improved (mental)health wise about half way through. I hope your pregnancy will also become easier so you can start to really enjoy it too ❤️ Silly how often women have these not so rosy things going on during pregnancy and yet it is not often spoken about 🤔 You are definately not alone! 🤗 Good luck! ❤️

    All of the hugs for you. Pregnancy can bring so many different emotions, try to go with the flow and not get too wrapped up in any one emotion or feeling and just be gentle on yourself. It can be a huge rollercoaster. Don't beat yourself up you are clearly a very gentle and sweet person and you can only do your best. Just be kind with yourself and it will all come together in the end x

    Thank you for sharing your story Emily. It seems that you suffer more from anxiety disorder than depression. When you are depressed you feel „nothing”, when you are nervous - you feel too much. I live in Poland, far away from You but I had similar problem after birth of my second child. I had so strong nervous tention that my nervous system „swithed off” and I felt as I was still in a dream, everything was so foggy and away. Fortunately, I met good psychiatrist who helped me, literally, still live and rise my two beautiful kids:) mental disorders are normal ilnesses, like diabetes or hypertension and we shouldnt feel any shame of it! I also talked about the situation to my many friends, treating it first like auto therapy but some of them turned to me for help, as they had the same problem during and after pregnancy. Sharing our stories can really help us and others!

    So relatable, and thank you for sharing and bringing light to this topic. You're not alone. I too looked at pregnancy thru rose coloured glasses. I too entered a depression, with anxiety about the surprise ahead of schedule, impact on my career, body, health, and so much more. Now I have a healthy and happy three year old, and so many positive feelings and memories since. You too will, it will come ❤️. Congratulations on the new home, and all the best during this journey. Edited to add I hope you also feel proud for prioritizing yourself and your family. I often have to remind myself to take care of myself. As a mom, it's easy for us to sacrifice ourselves for our children. But, a healthy mom is the best thing out children need.

    Thank you for opening up and sharing your experience like this.. you are absolutely right, there is nearly no conversation about what women go through, it’s almost like taboo to ask and tell about any struggle during pregnancy and motherhood. We need to start normalising this conversation for people to be better prepared and feel they can ask for help if they need to. Happy to see you here again, I hope you continue to feel better! Big hug xoxo

    Thank you for being so vulnerable and brave to share your story. I’ve been a midwife for 25 years and I can tell you you are not alone feeling this way.. Pregnancy is such a transition both physically and mentally, and not always the easy path that is often portrayed. So pleased to hear things are improving for you. Hang in there. I wish you all the best with your little family. xxx

    Having a baby seems to come with a prescribed set of socially acceptable responses to the whole receiving of the news, telling others, baby shower, getting ready, etc. But there is no correct response to any given part of having a baby. I got hit hard with depression during my pregnancy. And we had to move, too! Just remember that at some point, you will be unpacked, you will get your body back, you WILL feel better, lighter, and you’re not even close to alone in this experience. Congratulations to you and your partner!

    I’m so happy that you well. I had 6 months of 24 hours a day sickness the first time and 5 1/2 months the second time. I had to visit the dentist and get a toothpaste to strengthen my tooth enamel after all the acid washes. Best self care decision as a young mother. It does get better. Both of my boys have Crohn’s disease. I understand feeling responsible for that. They are healthy right now and know how to manage their condition so I remind myself that they were created exactly right for their purpose. No mistake was made. They are as they were meant to be. Your baby is too.

    Hi Em, Congratulations on your wonderful news,so happy for you. I understand completely about your anxiety having suffered on and off all my life,usually in the middle of the night. I have been to many professionals for help but the best help I’ve ever received is from Paul David’s book “ At last a life”. It is basically about Acceptance ,not fearing,and letting it take its course because it will pass. Wishing you a very happy Christmas,stay safe and come back when you are ready. Xx

    Awww!! Congratulations Emily. 🥳 I’m almost 39 weeks pregnant (due around the 29th Dec) so bub could come any day now! It’s been an incredible and unique experience but I also had a lot of anxiety come up in those first few months. It’s hard to know how it could feel until you go through it yourself hey? So proud of you for persevering through such hard times, you can do anything. xx

    I feel for you and can relate! I am due in March 2022 and have also been struggling with 24/7 morning sickness. I was incredibly down for the first 3 months, sad that I had to quit my job that I love as I couldn’t get out of bed for more than 2 hours a day, and also in shock that I was pregnant at all. I had not planned on having another baby. Now that I’m about 6 months in and spent several months in bed feeling sorry for myself I have turned a corner mentally and am finally looking forward to the baby and am grateful for the gift of a baby that not everyone can have. Having people to talk to is so important! I’m glad you reached out and got help. Hang in there!

I didn’t want to take medication but then I realized if it helps my life to be healthy and happy then I should first for myself and then for my family. Wishing you the best, and like myself sharing your story will help more people than I could ever reach. Blessings, prayers and love 🇺🇸🙏💛

    When I got pregnant of my second child I had a dark and low time too. I was in a Crisis in my marriage but got the job I loved. When I told them I was pregnant I got negative feedback both from my husband and boss. This made me feel really bad and I spent the whole pregnancy feeling guilty to have another child at that time. My mom helped me to get through and now they are my sunshine. Its hard, but it will pass. Hope you get to enjoy this blessing. Xo

  • @bethanymontgomery529
    @bethanymontgomery529 2 роки тому

    I definitely agree with you about not many people talking about the mental health challenges during. I always felt guilty that I didn't enjoy my pregnancies because of being quite sick at the beginning and just being in constant discomfort or pain and of course the anxiety of growing and birthing a living being. And that is a long time to be feeling all of those things, so of course it takes a toll on our mental health! It's okay to enjoy the pregnancy and it's also okay to have a hard time enjoying it! Good for you for knowing yourself and how to take care of yourself!

    I have missed you!!!! Isn't amazing how when you have a new experience, suddenly you become so aware of how others might be feeling/might have felt?? (empathy is something I strive for) Pregnancy is different for everyone (every baby, for that matter) but is a life changing experience. I like that you are sharing your journey...that could be so helpful for others to hear. I lost a friend to post natal depression, so keep tabs on that too. I am so happy for you both XXX

    Thank you for sharing this. I suffer from anxiety and panic attacks and found the book "At Last a Life" to be really helpful. I'll admit it's been years since I read it, but I recall there being a part about having anxiety, depression and scary thoughts during pregnancy, so it might be worth checking out. Glad to hear you're feeling better!

    Congrats! I'm glad that you're doing better. I have a friend who always has difficult pregnancies and I'm battling a chronic illness that causes severe pain (including my back) that doesn't reduce with painkillers, so I'm glad you've gotten help with both areas. And as someone with an illness that also can be passed down to children I just want to encourage you that even though you initially wanted this to happen the other way, you've done nothing to feel guilty about. You're giving that precious one a chance to live in a wonderful home with parents who love him, and that's the best thing you could have ever done for him.

  • @kirstenherbert5143
    @kirstenherbert5143 2 роки тому

    Sweet Emily, my prayers are with you and your miraculous baby. I had 2 IVF boys 2 years apart ( which technically makes them twins) and then a surprising naturally conceived baby girl and I get it. Pregnancy is an anxious place to be, which sort of makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint. I spent 3x9 months an anxious pregnant woman. It’s very hormonal just like your tears, but also…We humans wouldn’t make it as a species if our pregnant mums were too laid back and not taking extra care. But also, as a cancer physician myself, I can tell you that there should be no guilt for you about this unexpected pregnancy. I believe it was meant to be, and by the time your little bambino is old enough to even think about cancer there will be a myriad of preventative and treatment options if they are needed. Have faith and be bold and brave. Even us mums with anxiety make the most excellent parents. May your little Bub be healthy and happy and I really hope you can start enjoying your pregnancy some parts of some days!

My best friend had a terrible first trimester and severe back pain the rest of her pregnancy and in our family I have witnessed some women get severe morning sickness for the whole term of their pregnancy, It is dreadful but sharing and talking about such things helps other pregnant moms to feel not so alone. I am so glad you are doing better. May God bless you and your growing baby.

I was worried about you, you didn't look well, beautiful, but not well in your last few posts. I understand the morning, noon and night sickness, it happened with my son and daughter for 14 weeks each pregnancy. With your back issue it must have been a nightmare time for you. Emily, you just do you. We'll all love and support you no matter what your schedule is or isn't 😉 I think you are so authentic and this is why I love your channel. Take great care of yourself. Your up coming vids sound great, no rush though. Hope Fanta is looking after you too 🐈😊💞xx

    Dear Emily, it's lovely to see you again and hear your great news! Your feelings-all of them-are completely understood and appreciated. You are a human and like all of us you gone through some hard stuff in life... As someone who suffered from real painful anxiety and panic attacks four years ago, I admire your attitude and send you all my love and wishes for better days! Because, they are going to come and that's for sure! Anxiety, actually it's not a big black shadow, but a sign that you need to embrace your feelings, face your fears and move on to a life that suits you better. At least, that's what I learned from this hard (belive me) experience. Keep doing your lovely videos, because they are a seriously source of inspiration for me and I am really greatful for all the things that I learnt from you!
    All my love to you and your baby, M.💛🎄🙏

    First of all, congrats on the new baby. I don't want to pretend to know what you've gone thru, but I just want to share that all of us first time moms worry, we worry because we love, we worry because we want the best. My kid was born when I was over 40 and came in early and spent 13 days in the ICU and i have felt gulty about this for years. Then I started looking at her, like really looking (she's 6 now) and there is nothing she can't do. She's got her quirks and her life was rocky for a couple of years, but I now think we are given these babies for a reason. I am not a strong mom, but I decided to believe more in her and all of her capabilities and curiosity and hunger for the world, instead of leaning into my fears.
    This was a process mom, but you'll find a place of peace, one that is only shared between your baby and you.
    By the way, so happy I found your channel. Until we hear from you again...

    I am sorry you had such a hard time and I wish it gets better so you can fully enjoy your pregnancy :) You took the right call speaking out about your mental health, both to your loved ones and to your doctor, but also here. I feel it's more important than ever to shine a light on this topic and spread the awareness, and I deeply appreciate the big effort you did sharing it. Big congratulations and good luck with the move! ❤

    Sending much love! This topic is so important to talk about. I have a 10 month old baby, and she is the most wonderful thing ever that has happened to me, but the transition to become a mom/parent is also one of the hardest things I have done so far. Luckily there are starting to come more resources on this transition, and the term matrescence gives a good describing on how we evolve during pregnancy and post partum. Glad to hear things are going better and that you have support in your life! Love the upcoming video ideas.

    Thank you for being so open and sharing your experience. I also experience anxiety in a similar way. It makes me feel I am not alone. I feel that with UA-cam mothers and mothers to be are finally able to share what it is really like, no longer this secret club. And I think that benefits all women :)

    Dear Emily, thanks so much for sharing your personal journey. Wow, there has been a lot on your plate, feel veeeery proud of you for all you've overcome! It has been a tough period but Im so glad to see u are coming out of it and sharing this because these topics are a bit of "tabu" for some people and they never share them or reach out. By crearing awareness you are helping so much! Thank you for your honesty and being so genuine and real! This is what differenciates u from most of other youtubers. Sending u much aroha (love) and yes, take the time u need, go at your own rhytm. Hugs!

    Take heart, will be keeping you in prayer. Pregnancy and the first year of baby's life can be very challenging. So glad your mum can be there for you and Alex is so supportive. Be kind to yourself, trust God and pray for His strength. He made us and loves us. He is the best resource for casting your cares upon. Co granulation and be well.

    So happy to see you. Good that you’re taking care of yourself. I was “morning sick” for six months with my first pregnancy and three months the second time. My personality also changes. I was horrible. Hormones can do weird things.

    Emily - you are such jewel of a human and you already are an incredible Mother to your unborn child! A verse from the Bible my husband gave my years ago is from Paul's letter to the Phillipians in chapter 4 verse 6 : "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. "
    Thank you for sharing so vulnerably and eloquently. Hugs from Southern California
