    Oh my goodness…that baby looks like she is coming soon,lol! You look beautiful mamma. Will be praying for a quick labor and delivery and health and comfort for both of you. Lord, I lift Kristin up to you and ask for a hedge of protection over her, baby and family as they await this season of their journey. Give wisdom and clarity to all who come in contact with her as she delivers this child. We give you the praise and glory for this new little blessing , in Jesus name we pray❤. AMEN

    Kristen, why don't you turn the door hanger around so that the basket holding the pads will be on the back side of the door & when you close it you'll have the pads handy inside the bathroom instead of out in your kitchen. God bless!

    I love the fact that you are so honest and so real with your daily life and the tasks to keep your home going. It’s so refreshing to watch your beautiful family as you are naturally. This is how God intended it to be. Your channel never fails to makes me smile and laugh as I can relate a lot to what you say as I’m sure many others do to. Wishing you all the best.

    Kristen!! I’m a labor nurse and your breathlessness is making me nervous. Probably nothing, but there is a condition called peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) that you might want to check into. It isn’t something that all OBs look for, so chances are…it isn’t on your OB’s radar. Just telling ya because I ❤ ya!

    I love how you keep it real. You could change the direction that the "basket pads" is facing and put the hook so it hangs in the bathroom instead of the kitchen. Pregnancy looks so good on you. Good luck with this new little one. I'm sure she will be as adorable as your other three girls.

    How about making some padsicles? You can Google how to make them, you will be glad to have them. They are a life saver! Wishing you the very best and praying for you to have an easy labor and safe delivery of your sweet dear baby. God bless you!

    You did great with your list. The cushions alone were a big job considering running up and down steps with each load. You will be the most prepared new mother as it seems you're thinking of everything. So is there a decision on the name yet? I think smiling Ivy looks just like you. All your girls are so sweet. What a beautiful family you have with Josh.

    @jennifergriffith1287 3 місяці тому +12

    Kristen, put that witch hazel on some pads and put them in your refrigerator. I didn’t know about this until my third baby, and the area you just pushed a baby through deserves some first rate comfort care, and this is pure relief.

    That couch looks like mine when I was thick in raising kids. There’s no way to avoid it. Completely normal. Btw. I thought of the name willow raine. It does have a nice ring to it. I’m old now but so wished I would have named my daughter that. I named her Christy instead.

    Bless your heart, baby girl is showing out!😄 You still look beautiful girlfriend! Your hair is so pretty! Ivy is the cutest🥰 My daughter had to have 9 stitches with her first baby and she made what her aunt called a coctail.. you lay tucks wipes on the pad then spray the foam that you spray the dermaplast foam on top of the pads. I'm sure you could just use the witch hazel on the pads & put the dermaplast foam on those too. But girl that saved her! I've actually heard a couple other people say they used or were going to use the same thing so I'm guessing it must be a common thing to use. I had c-sections with both of mine so I'm just going by what my daughter used & said it really worked. I always love the like jokes you crack, i get a good giggle every time😄 Function over aesthetically pleasing is best😉 We you need the items, cuteness will be the last thing you will think about😄 I say go with what's easiest & best for you! You did more than what i 'would' have done😄 Girlfriend just do what you can t #oady, there's always tomorrow! Its extra hard when your bump gets in the way..i do remember that lol I'll never forget it either! I had 2 big bumps!! My daughter, the oldest, weighed 10lbs a my son, my baby, weighed 8lbs 4.5ozs. But I gained 63lbs with both. I was all baby the first time, just one huge bump, and gained all over the second time🥴 so i didn't get all the things done in one day during my last couple weeks. But remember Rome wasn't built in one day, I'm not pregnant but have to remind myself of that daily lol😄 Enjoyed the video, who knows maybe next video you'll have someone for us to meet😊

    Love all of your varied flowering bushes and the“flag” banners on your porch. Rosie, Ruby, and Ivy have grown so much since you moved into your new home! It was good to see them helping you clean the car. I laughed at your conversation with Rosie about the lactation cookies. But it was great that you explained to her that the cookies won’t make her lactate. Kids sometimes worry over things like that. Do you have a painting rail near the ceiling in your living room? If so, that is what you should use to hang stuff, especially if it’s heavy. What brand are your sofas? It’s really great that you can wash all of the “upholstery.” Blessings as you approach delivery. Can’t wait to see her!♥️
