#firstweekwithanewborn
Eloise is such a great big sis ☺️
Hey! In case there are any moms of newborns reading this, please be very careful of having anyone with cold sores around your baby. Currently in hospital with my two month old because a family member kissed the top of her head. Overall she will need a month of treatment and two weeks in hospital. We had our baby diagnosed very early after exposure. If it had taken longer things could have been much worse. Spreading the word so other parents don’t have to go through this!
Yes to this. Cold sore virus can kill a new born. I am so glad your baby got help. I work with Mums and as a rule of thumb nobody should kiss a new born but Mum, Dad and maybe sibs.
@@melindaedgington9925 Totally agree. We have a “no kissing our children on mouth or face” rule in our household, but we now know it wasn’t enough. The doctors believe that the virus was able to enter her body through cradle cap or a small scratch. Either way she didn’t have any visible scratches or marks on her head.
Also if mom, dad or siblings have cold sores they should not kiss baby anywhere and wash their hands very well before touching baby.
Wow thank you for this. My mom often has cold sores. I will have to be very aware of that.
Oh my goodness this happened to me! Someone kissed me when I was a baby and I got cold sores that covered me from head to toe. Obviously I’m better now but I still occasionally get cold sores and they Suck!
@@mollystratton560 Sorry to hear this happened to you. My mother in law gave me the cold sore virus when I was 30. My whole face was covered with cold sores for about a month. The cold sore virus will live in you forever but your body can deal with it better now.
The Apple head! And Eloise saying ‘maybe too much love!’ How darling. When William was born I felt that Theo wasn’t really old enough to appreciate having a little sibling but now he’s so fully involved. It’s so sweet. And William being so happy to have a little sib. The cutest
I love how you can already tell how special the bond between Eloise and Anna Beth is going to be 🥺 I myself (as the sister of two younger brothers) can only imagine there's something very special about having a sister 💗 And also, it's so lovely to see how loving your kids are in general, knowing it is like that because they can really look up to you and Zach x
Some women are meant to be mothers, and you are definitely one of them. ❤
I love how raw and honest this vlog is. It shows the postpartum period but has a positive perspective 🤍 what a beautiful first week with sweet baby Anna Beth
My daughter hated baths as a newborn until a friend told me about swaddle bathing! She didn’t cry at all once I tried it. Just swaddle her as normal (but with nothing else on) and put the baby in the sink/tub. Then you can unwrap an arm to wash it, cover it back up, unwrap the other arm to wash, cover it back up, and repeat with legs, etc. It keeps her feeling warmer and more secure. Hope this helps!!
What a wonderful tip!
This is what we (postpartum nurses) do at the hospital for baby baths!
Eloise reading to her is sooo precious ❤
I found myself smiling throughout the whole video. From watching your kids interact with their little sister, to watching you just love on her and also just watching sweet Anna Beth and listening to her cooing. Sigh! So so sweet and precious 💞🌼
1 week in the bed, 1 week on the bed and 1 week around the bed.......as a postpartum doula, that's what I try to get my clients to practice. the house work can wait. this is such an important bonding time, nothing else is more important. And of course for healing too.... i would have my work cut out with Delilah lol.....
Agh, seeing Eloise help in every way she can and act like such an incredible big sister has warmed my heart so very much.. She must be so grateful for her new little sister 🤍 And the boys seem over the moon, they are just beyond sweet with baby. You guys nearly bring me to tears, you know that? 🥲
Eloise just made my heart melt in this one. Excited for ya’ll with your newest addition. She’s got herself a great fam to be born into.
I would watch Little House episodes over and over again to give me the same peace and joy that you bring me every week. Thank you for what you do. ❤
Every time that William would love on the baby I would get teary eyed because my 1st born is his age. And it makes my heart burst imagining him doing the same with our second some day.
She is beautiful. Your whole family is beautiful ❤
Delilah, I can’t tell you how much this video encouraged my heart today. I’m a first time mama in my third trimester and I have been feeling so much anxiety in regards to PPD. I’m encouraged by your mindfulness in your postpartum prayer life as well as your encouragement to stay in God’s Word. Thank you💛
Prayers ♥️and congratulations!
I like the little bits of reality sprinkled in! FYI: Using the Haakaa on one side while nursing on the other can lead to overproduction of milk and, thus, more engorgement. Too much engorgement for too long can result in clogged ducts or other unpleasant situations (I've had them all). Sunflower lecithin really helps. I'm currently using, and LOVING, the milk savers instead of the Haakaa. Just pop one inside of your bra on the other side than you're nursing on. Then empty into a bottle inside a cooler beside your bed so you don't have to walk all the way to the kitchen. Also, you do not need a huge freezer stash, so don't feel bad if you're not producing this much milk. ESPECIALLY, if you aren't going back to work. For those who ARE going back to work, you only need enough for the next day. Best of luck and with love!
I just want to say, rest!! Two weeks of bleeding is normal, but constant bleeding after that for so long indicates that you aren't resting enough to heal properly. The general rule is 5 days postpartum in bed, 5 days within arms-reach of your bed, and 5 days to stay in the house for postpartum recovery. After that midwives and doulas will say to still refrain from too much activity. Remember there is a plate-sized (8 inch) open wound in your uterus from where the placenta detached that must heal, hormones need to stabilize, and milk is getting established, among many other adjustments. Best of luck!
Seeing Eloise with Annabeth makes me so happy & hopeful for the future. I struggle with the fear of bringing in new babies and my oldest daughter feeling left behind, but to see how much she loves helping and loving on her baby sister is so encouraging….
Also, if we are having a girl we are using compound name starting with Anna, so to hear you say it is so sweet. Annabeth is such a darling name❤️
Thank you for sharing about your relationship with the Lord and the work you are putting in. He is so good to us and his word is the nutrition we need for everyday life. It is both convicting and encouraging to hear you talk about your faith.
Eloise is doing so good protecting her and loving her. Big help for you - just the right age. I watch Eloise’s videos all the time. She was so funny and talkative.
Eloise is such a fantastic big sister. She’s adorable 🥹
Daddy is realy taking care of his family. Very charming.
For me, postpartum anger and resentment was a sign my needs weren't getting met. Hopefully we can also be taken care of and not only need to reframe our thoughts.
It is so easy to let prayer and bible time slide, and even easier to pick up the phone while breastfeeding, you are so right! Im 24 hrs in with baby #5 and you have inspired me to prioritize this in my life as well. It is crucial in this postpartum time (and always) 🙏🏻
You are an INCREDIBLE mother to all your children, both you & your husband make it a routine to genuinely show LOVE to one other, what a JOY to watch! ❤️from Montreal
Aww you are an absolute super mom. All of your kids are so loved and it is truly heartwarming. Eloise melted my heart. what a good big sister. She already seems like such a good helper and little mama. God Bless your family.
the way I BAWLED watching this vlog, just thinking about the kids will be able to watch this video in a couple of years and see THE LOVE! I couldn't be happier for you all! Sending blessings and a ton of teary salty hugs!
Beautiful. Congratulations! Ya'll melt my heart 🤍.
God bless! Hope you're healing nicely and everyone is adjusting well!
Always so excited for your videos, they are so refreshingly real!
seeing the kids surround the baby and love her is soo so sweet. makes me teary eyed. ❤ eloise is so smitten and such a good helper.
Elouise reading to Anna just fills my heart with pure joy 🥹
For anyone considering using coconut oil for your baby or your own skin: Don't use it on dry skin but rather right after taking/giving a bath to lock the moisture in. Same goes for the use on hair :)
My baby boy is 1 week today! I, love watching how experienced mamas mother their newborns, it’s my first baby. Waiting for milk to come in and helping him gain weight has been a struggle, it’s nice to see things normalized sometimes. ❤ thank you for sharing.
Your vlogs are so soothing & Anna Beth is precious 🤍
this is possibly my favorite vlog to date, soo sweet, raw and real! ❤️
I adore this!!! Congratulations!! 13 weeks with Baby 3 and I just love all the cozy, lovey baby vibes 🥰
This vlog was seriously the sweetest! What precious memories captured here. ❤
I hope my kids are this excited with our new addition in a few months! So sweet to see their relationship
Watching this makes me feel so happy and warm ❤. Such a beautiful family
I love your videos and seeing you and your family. So precious!❤
Love seeing all your kiddos pour love into their sweet little sister. You and Zach are amazing parents and the family you are creating is so special. God bless ❤
i've single-handedly learned so much from your channel, thank you so much for all that you share with us! Your family is so cute and adorable and I appreciate that you're so positive about motherhood in comparison to others on this app.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful moments with us! Your vlogs are so wholesome and calming. Love seeing the day to day with a newborn.
She is sweet, you have a beautiful family. Bless you
Baby is so precious. The other children are so sweet and good with her. You are blessed!
This video is making me cry with joy. Such sweet moments!
Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability. I so appreciate you giving us a glimpse into your sweet family’s life every week. I pray that one day my family will look even the slightest bit like yours.
Eloise, you are such a wonderful big sister. Congratulations little sweetie ❤
Such a beautiful family! The love between siblings is so beautiful and evident in this video. My daughter turns one tomorrow and watching this has me missing those newborn days, enjoy every bit!💕
It is so calming to watch your postpartum vlogs❤ you have a beautiful family❤
Beautiful. The kids love her so much ❤
Delilah ❤❤❤ you don’t know how happy I am that you got the birth that you prayed for. I prayed for you and I am so happy for you.
Your big girl is so helpful! So sweet!
I can see that Eloise and Annie will have a sweet bond together, so sweet ❤️Thanks for a great vlog, praying for your family
Its a Big joy for me to watch your videos! Especially that I am one week before my second labour. You are a great blessed family!❤
Love this so much ! Thanks for sharing ❤I am almost 12 weeks pregnant with our first and I can't wait to experience everything 😊
I LOVE watching your vlogs😢 the vibes are AMAZING
I really struggled to watch this. Three days postpartum and up doing house jobs. Go back to bed mama 😭
My heart melted how attentive Eloise is to her sister omg it was adorable. She's so precious will be such gd role model for her lil sis. Ty for sharing so enjoy ur channel can't wait to see what u post. Bless u
I am a mother of four grown children and just stumbled across your volg. Probably because I am training to be a LLL coach.
Congrats on your new family and I must say I truly appreciate all that you mention as I plan to help new moms in the near future and everything you mention is so up to date. I never did pump but most new moms do so I will definetly take a look at what you use. The sling is also a feature I have not used but looks so convenient. Your husband and family are amazing and lovingly supportive. God Bless.
watching you be such a loving mother, with such a loving and kind family, heals my inner child 🥺
Recently the Lord told me to slow down. So I've been trying to be really intentional about that. I love your videos because there's this beautiful sense of peace and stillness about them. They are the opposite of overstimulating, even the color aesthetic of them is quiet. When I get a moment to myself they are a lovely way to slow down and a great reminder even just of what that can look like. 🧡
Also, I'm 25 weeks pregnant and so looking forward to the moment I get to hold my baby for the first time.
This baby was diagnosed with a heart condition so my newborn stage might look different, but I'm praying it turns out to be as miraculous and healing as yours. 🧡
Just wanted to say that if the condition is a small hole in the heart that that's actually a natural part of development and usually heals itself 😊 whatever happens, though, this stranger is praying for you to have a smooth and safe delivery and postpartum ❤
Hey Loeppkys family omg how precious is this seeing the kids loving their sibling so much i´m crying cus i´m so happy watching this wonderful vlog and following you family just growing and just watching your daily routines
My eyes misted several times, such a sweet, real, special time. ❤
Eloise loves her baby sister!! Such a little mama ♥️ that’s how my girls are, the sweetest sister bond
Congratulations yet again ♡ what a sweet little one
Loved seeing how things are going for you and your family since you gave birth again. Eloise is in her glory with her baby sister like a little mama!! Of course. her big brothers are doing great too. It is so interesting about you sensing having a girl this time around. That is so nice.
Oh how I miss those days! This made me tear up. Such a beautiful capture. Lots of love to you guys and congrats again on such an exquisite little lady! 🖤✨
Congrats! She is precious!
Wonderful video! I've been waiting to see the home coming! They are all so wonderful with her! I'm so glad to see you enjoying these days. And little Miss is so vocal! So cute to hear!
Congrats again Delilah! Wishing you all the joy, peace and happiness your hearts can hold!
xoxo
Hugs,
Rachele~
Delilah Thankyou so much for going through so much effort to share these moments with us! This time is full of things to do and you still made the effort for us your subscribers so I just wanted to say Thankyou for sharing your beautiful Anna with us xxx😊
Forgot to say, I always have a lot of milk and never pump, then it regulates quite quickly. Pumping after nursing tells your body to keep producing lots of milk cause baby seems to need it. Usually you pump if you need your body to produce more milk.
This was so sweet and joyful ❤️ and the music suits it so well. 🥰
My favorite part of every Tuesday!
The music on this video was on point and perfect!! 🙌🏼
Ohh my gosh such a beautiful little family ❤❤
I love the morning snuggles on the bed because we do it too (though not every morning). So excited to have my boys come snuggle on the bed in November when we have our little girl in our arms 🥰
Aweee this family is amazing. I can't wait for the new intro. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That scrunch! My baby is just over 5 months and she still does it during dream feeds sometimes. It melts my heart! Anna Beth is beautiful. Congratulations!
Wow I cannot tell you how badly this made me want another baby.. your family is just so beautiful❤️
So sweet and peaceful! Eloise has such a special soul!!She reminds me of Matilda from the movie.
I love how Eloise adores her sister! 🥰 We are thinking of having a similar age difference between our first and second (so a bit different, but similar hopefully) and I couldn’t be more excited to see their beautiful dynamic.
Thank you so much Delilah for these videos, it’s so beautiful to witness your family and you inspire me every time ❤️🥺 longing for the days ahead, on god’s timing and blessing, when I hopefully get to follow your steps 🥹❤️
I am pp almost 5 months with my second, and finding the new norm, not overdoing it, struggling with anger and making the most of the time during nursing are all topics that I have gone through as well. You have a quiet grace about you, so I really appreciate hearing your struggles to stay calm and with the Lord, how you are actively working to keep a good mindset. I’d like to be better at that, too!
What a great way to keep the Lord first! I love the reading your Bible instead of your phone idea💜
what a sweet vlog!!
I have been waiting for this viddd because i started watching with this video but with William🥰, so happy for you and your family
Ahh....it's so cute to watch the other kids help with Anna Beth & hold her etc. But when I see Eloise hold Anna Beth I see her motherly instinct take over. Shell be a good help with Anna Beth! The boys too will be very protective with Anna Beth too! Thanks for sharing! ❤☺️🫂🌞🐾🍄🦩🐦🦋🎉
Such wholesome content❤ loved this vlog
You are an amazing mother ❤
she is so beautiful. Congrats to all
It's so, so good to see how much God provides and how wonderful He is. I prayed for you, I'm very happy to see that He answered
Watching these makes me excited for those newborn days again. I’m 32 weeks with my 5th baby, and I can’t wait to snuggle a little newborn again 😭😭🥺🥺
This is so beautiful and wholesome it makes me want to cry. It’s so good to have you back Delilah 🥹
Oh my heart ❤ this time is so precious and such a blessing. Me and my husband are hoping we will be blessed with a third little player in our marriage soon and this video has made me realize how ready I am for this time ❤
Ahhh Eloise is such an amazing big sister! ❤
How lovely you all are xx
Eloise is such a sweet help 🥹🤎
Aww this was so beautiful to watch ❤ your doing a great job as always 🥰 such a wonderful mummy and daddy and the little ones are so gentle with baby 💖💙💙 make sure you rest well mummy when you need to xx I had 5 children and now I have 8 grandchildren all different ages ranging from 19 down to 17 months they are wonderful ❤ sending you all hugs 🤗 xx
We have that same goose! Love it so much!
This was such a sweet video! We are trying for baby #2 and this just amplified my baby fever. Anna Beth is just tooo precious!
Make sure you focus more on enjoying the sex and not so much on the “baby making “ if that makes any sense , stressing over getting pregnant can delay things
I just left it up to the good Lord and he provided.@@citlalliyepez5379
Where do you get your comfy pajamas? That nightgown looked so cozy!!
