Do you think the tiebreaker baby will be a boy or a girl?! 💙💗
💕
Boy!
boy!!
Girl! 🙂💖
Boy!
I am also pregnant and almost done with my first trimester. I’m due end of May! I just discovered your channel and I absolutely love it and your family. God Bless!!! ❤
I totally agree that your experience and the health of you and baby is the only important thing when it comes to birth. Congratulations, on baby number 3!! 🎉 You are doing amazing and I love following you from the Netherlands 😊❤
Thank you so much!! 🤍
Thank you for sharing your pregnancy experience 🩷 It’s really comforting for me as I’m due in May with my first baby- it’s nice seeing other mamas and their experiences! I love the way you approach motherhood. Congrats to your beautiful fam! 💕
Super crazy!! Jude is two months older than my son and I am currently pregnant again due in late March early April! 😂 So we'll have two babies super similar in age!
So excited to navigate the two under two season and so grateful to have someone like you who is going through SUCH a similar season of life!! ❤
Aw I love that - that’s so special! We’re in it together ❤️
Currently watching this with my 3 week old in a carrier and my 16 month old throwing around pots and pans and your video makes me want to have another one already 😂 thank you for all the inspiring content and congratulations on your growing family!
I have kids with the same age difference! My second was born when my first was exactly 15.5 months apart ♥️enjoy! And yeah Baby 3 will be born around the time Baby 2 is 16 months old 😂maybe we’re crazy but what’s not to love? ♥️
Hahah awww I love that. The season with young kids is so busy but it’s such a joy to watch them grow up together so closely!
Congrats to you and your family ❤️ the 18 month age gap is so fun! I have a 20 month old and 2 month-old twins. It's chaos but the good kind of chaos 🥰. And our toddler is at such a fun age to digest all the changes and shed all the love on "his babies".
Ahhh so exciting 🎉 I'm also due in April! Second baby 😁 so excited to get to watch your pregnancy videos as we go through similar stages together!!
Congratulations!!! 😭
Pregnant with my 2nd baby, I’m also due April!! We also have the same 15 month age gap!! Thank you for sharing your journey ❤️
I have a LOT of hair and it was to my thighs but I had hair loss in my 3rd pregnancy. More like it thinned out a bit. It is getting thicker now that I am nursing.
That is cute that you planned your kids to be close together and knew the amount you wanted. I really like that.
I always wanted 3 and my husband always wanted 4 but he had a vasectomy right after the second one because of dumb reasons that we regretted soon afterwards, so nine years later he got a reversal surgery (when we saved the money for it) and it took almost four years for us to get pregnant, so now our kids are 16, 14 (15 next month) and 5 months old. We are planning and hoping to have one more over the next year or two, so this one is not alone growing up. it is a weird thing, but God knew what we needed and when it would take place and he taught us great patience.
I am glad you don't live in fear of your endometriosis. That's a beautiful thing. Our first two conceptions. . .we knew we conceived on the spot and the third one was a "different" feeling which made us understand the day we conceived once we found out I was pregnant.
I am the same as you, I like knowing what I am having. I have three boys so I hope we can have a girl next, but we have names picked out for either gender and are at least used to boys if we get another. Our next one is our last one since I am 40 (just turned).
Yes, being younger having small kids is much easier than when you are older. I had loads of energy when I had my first two at 23 and 25 and my husband said after the first few weeks of having this third one, "How did you manage being at home all day with the two when I had to go back to work right away? This is tiring on me and you're the one who gave birth." - Thankfully I like to work out and eat healthy so I do have some energy, but definitely not the same amount. Bouncing back has taken a lot longer too which frustrates me. It is beautiful that you won't have to go through this huge gap that I am going through, but I will say, I think I am eating up motherhood MORE being an older mom to an infant.
Sorry this was a long comment. I loved listening to your responses on this. One of my best friends had 7 children in 11 years. You'll do great with 3 under 3!!
I have a 23 month old little girl who reminds me so much of your daughter from what I can see. I also have a 5 month old little boy…debating on a third with my husband. I’m going to enjoy watching you progress with your pregnancy and see how you balance 3 under 3 ❤ much love.
Beth and Jared, so sorry for you loss of Jared dad. I am praying for you and your family at this time ❤
Thank you so much ❤️
Your birth is yours. Don't let what people may say keep you from a home birth if that's what you want (though I know it's hard). What you want is what's important, and as long as you have your husband's support I'm sure you'll be fine.
I'm going to have the exact total age gap as you. My first 2 are 14 months apart, and now I will have a 19 month age gap.
Thank you ❤️
I had a ton of hair loss in my first trimester this pregnancy as well and I contribute that to weaning after I became pregnant, because for me, postpartum hair loss doesn’t happen until I wean 😊
Would you be open to doing a house tour? Maybe I’m the odd one out but I’d love to see the final product of the renovations!
Yes I actually just filmed a tour of our basement before another renter moved in! Will share in an upcoming vlog for sure!
Yay! I’ve been waiting for this one! So excited for you Beth!!
Loved this Beth 🤍 So excited for this precious miracle's arrival!
Due with my second in early May ❤ I was pregnant around same time as you were with viv too. I was a bit behind you. My daughter turned 2 last month. Excited to follow along with you again 😊
i already had commented on your instagram, but i am so incredibly sorry for your loss. i am praying so hard for your family daily. may God be with you in this hard time ❤
Thank you so much. ❤️
New subscriber!! I just had my third baby in July of this year. I also use natural methods to track fertility. My first two are 12.5 months apart and my second and third are 15 months apart. It’s such a joyful wonderful life!! The jump from 2 kids to 3 kids was muuuuch easier for me than 1 to 2 kids. Good luck and God bless!! ❤️❤️
Welcome! 🥰 so glad you’re here! I am hopeful that 2 to 3 will be easier than 1 to 2 haha for some reason that second child transition was so tough!!
@@BethGraceMoore yes it was SO overwhelming. Something that helped me this time around was reframing what a productive/good day was in my mind. Before, a “good day” was directly correlated to how many things were checked off the to-do list, how tidy the house was, etc etc. Now, a good day is when I stay calm, collected, and emotionally regulated. No matter what the house looks like! I also HIGHLY recommend the book “Peaceful Parents, Happy Siblings”
Haha, currently pregnant with my third and all our kids are within a couple months of your kids. It is wild how close they are. Did out of hospital for both of our kids (one freestanding birth center, one home birth) and gonna do a home birth this time too prayerfully. It is the best imo, even though it is SO HARD. You got this!
So excited for you!!!! Congratulations
Beth, I have been watching your videos for over a year now. This is my first comment! ❤ Your content is always inspiring and full of help for new moms like me! I am due with my second in late March. I am entering the 2 under 2 club! Feeling very blessed by the Lord. BTW--It doesn't matter in the least that this video is a bit blurry. People need to offer you grace.
I am so sorry for your family's loss over the weekend. Praying for you all.
This message means so much - thank you for being here and for the support! 🤍 congrats on your sweet babe!!
What kind of mental preparation did you do during the pregnancy? My close friends have done Hypnobirthing and have had awesome success and I’ve been considering doing it too. I just watched your birth videos and you did so awesome. 👏🏼
Beth, you mentioned you were diagnosed with endometriosis and I was wondering how you have handled that while practicing FAM. I was recently diagnosed too after coming off the pill for almost 10 years, and was told that the only option was to maintain the diseas by going back to hormonal birth control, something that did not feel right for me. I am also practicing FAM but am really struggling with handling the pain and symptoms of endo. Would you be willing to speak more to your experience here?
I love your content and you inspire me so much. While I’m sorry that you struggle with this, it’s kind of a big relief knowing that some one like you is facing a similar challenge and handling it with such grace ❤
I found your channel by searching for home birth vlogs, I'm due the first week of may!
Hi Beth, could you make a video about raising kids without your family living close to you? I'm expecting my first and my family and I are separated by an ocean 😅. It is the thing that is stressing me out at the moment. How do you manage those first few weeks with no help? I hear everwhe that it should be a priority. ❤ Thank you always for your videos
Hi, best tip for preparing for postpartum (I have 3 kids) is a full freezer with options for all 3 meals and declutter, declutter, declutter! For the rest, you just gotta lower your standards the most you can tolerate
@@beans4853 love this, thank you very much ❤️❤️
@@Mrs.Laetitia you're welcome and good luck! Being a mom is awesome!
I can for sure share more about how we navigate it! One thing that we do always coordinate for the first week at least is to have a family member come stay during that initial adjustment, and then my husband takes a week off as well - so each time we’ve had 2 weeks of at least two adults available before I’m home with the kids alone during the day. Our church is also an amazing support to us and have also set up meal trains to cover dinner and both times they covered the first 3 weeks after our babies have been born 😭 we couldn’t do life without our church fam!
@@BethGraceMoore this os really helpful Beth. Thank you very much for taking the time ❤️
Congratulations! won't have 3 under 3 but I will have 3 that are 3 and under. I have 22 months between 1 and 2 and there will be about 18 months between 2 and 3. I think it's going to be a wild ride but we're excited as we expect this will be our last.
That's exactly how my husband and I are, we talk about it when I'm fertile and then make that decision.
I think it’s a healthy way to navigate it as a couple!
I live that I'm one of the first people congrats girl.
I vote girl. 50:50 chance! Congratulations! Very exciting!
How did you track your ovulation? Did you use ovulation strips?
I had 3 under 3 for 4 days 😉 then my oldest turned 3 years. It’s been sooo fun. Busy, but a good busy 🥰
I love to hear that!! 🥰
is the video blur for anyone else? I put in on 1080 and it's still blur
It’s kind of blurry for me too!
Hi🤍 i think she mentioned in her IG story that it was a little bit blurry, but because of what her family is going through at the moment she didnt have the capacity to refilm. 😌
@@abilener5841 Ohh I see! It’s not a big deal though ☺️
@@abilener5841oh thanks for mentioning that! I don’t have her IG
Same here
Also team third pregnancy hair loss!
Please watch over to who watches your kids. Make sure you fully trust them, because you mentioned you have a community. Just wanted to give a reminder
Yes I think this goes without saying!
Would you do 4 under 4?
Totally off subject, but I would lost to know what brand and color of lipstick you’re wearing?! It’s so pretty!
Merit!! So good. 😍 this is in the shade pink beet! I legit keep losing it because I bring it everywhere - it’s the perfect shade. All my merit faves are here: muse.meritbeauty.com/beth
@@BethGraceMoore perfect thank you! I’ve been searching to the perfect shade on and off for years and it looks like this one just might work on me as well!
No hate but out of curiosity with time frame, I thought your first and second baby are actually 16 months apart? June to October is 4 months on top of the 12 months would be 16?! Congrats on baby number 3 so amazing for you and your family! ❤️
With the dates their birthdays fall they are just under the 16 month mark by a week or so! 🤍
Nicole Lela green has 3! I’m not sure they are 3 under 3 but could be a good person to talk with 😊
I would ask your naturopath about homeopathy in regards to hair loss. I noticed I was struggling in postpartum with that and other things. My naturopath recommended sepia 200ck every three days and three hair loss stopped. ❤️
Congrats Beth , love from Zimbabwe
For me pregnancy = hair loss and Postpartum = hair growth.
Hi Beth, just wondering if you are toilet training and how thats going. Plus any sleep updates with the beds, are the kids room sharing yet?
Not yet for room sharing, we’ve had a few hard things happen back to back in the last few weeks but will give it a shot pretty soon!! I’ve decided not to share any toilet training deets on here just for our kids privacy into the future on that subject 🤍
Awesome Beth. 😅😊🎉🎉🎉😂❤❤❤
So wild
Currently watching this video and I felt like we were the same person lol
Coffee gross in first trimester
Major hair loss- thought I was sickly!
I’m due mid may 2024 with my 3rd
I’m due in May with our third, too! It’s fun because Beth’s kiddos are a little over a month older than my kiddos, so having her third baby be a month older than my third baby is just cool to me.
I have to disagree I think the longer you wait before having another baby the more ready you feel. You forget any traumas and hardships of newborn life and feel more back to yourself and normal and feel like you can do it again
Yay! Congrats! My daughter is Vivians age and Im currently due with #2 in March-this time a baby boy 👦🏻 Im also wanting a third so Maybe Ill have them closer in age (rather than almost 3 years apart).
Baby girl 💕, When is your due date?
Due month is April 🥰 not sharing the due date exactly just yet since you end up getting so many messages on the day of hahah but maybe closer to I’ll change my mind!!
Are your parents divorced? I’m curious if that is the case, how you navigate that? I also understand if you don’t want to talk about that.
Yes they are! Have been since I was 11!
❤❤
I think you should check your thyroid
We tested thyroid too - all good on that front!!
How old are you?😊
I am 27! 🥰
Hello everyone :) Trust in the blood of Jesus! He took your sins on the cross, he died and rose again on the third day. He's seated in heaven with our Heavenly Father and Creator Jehovah. If you don't know Him, ask Him to come into your heart. Jesus is about to remove His children, then Hell will be unleashed on this earth. If you aren't ready and your babies and children disappear they are with Jesus! He loves you! Live for Jesus Christ now and let go of the things of this world. For your treasures are in heaven ❤

Anyone newly pregnant or even somewhere in the second trimester, i cant recommend going to a good chiropractor enough! Its expensive but the $75 per month has been so worth it for me to feel my best and keep doing the things that make me happy :)
My sister and I are 18 months apart and we have the best relationship. I am now 24 and she is 23. When we were out of the baby stage we just grew up together, could watch the same shows do the same things and that was amazing. Can not imagine her being younger and not really growing up together. It’s the best🤍
That lip color on you!!!!! What is that color?? So beautiful
Thank you!! It’s a merit shade slick in “pink beet” - soooo good. 😍 muse.meritbeauty.com/beth
