HEART TO HEART CHAT, NEW COFFEE MACHINE + HOMEGOODS | VLOGMAS DAY 27
Hi there, I'm Alexandra Rodriguez, formerly known as LearningToBeFearless! Follow me on UA-cam for plus size try on hauls, plus size hauls, vlogs, weekly vlog and daily vlog content, try on hauls, beauty, travel and more!
Alex, I say this with love, not negativity. Please stop saying something 'Is Aesthetic'. Something can't 'be' aesthetic. Things can be 'Aesthetically pleasing' or have a pleasing/unpleasing aesthetic. Also, I was willing you to take that sweater off Bruno for the whole video. Dogs are much happier not being 'dressed'!!
Took me two days to get pregnant with my first born. And 8 months with my second. Everyone and every pregnancy is different. Hoping you get preggers soon!!! ❤
So why did your mom make fun of you when you were wishing for that?! I was gonna comment on the last video how I hated her doing that and now that I know what happened earlier that makes me so mad.
Praying for you and Yar to have a little coming soon!!
And don’t let your mom hurt you like that it doesn’t help even if it’s joking!
Hugs!
just remember after you met Yar you said that you wish you could tell your old self to be patient and that your person will come. i think you can apply that to your TTC situation. i know its hard, you really want it. in due time it will happen for you guys and im so excited. whether its the way you want it or it comes to you in a different type of blessing. just try to enjoy the process and be gentle with yourself. love ya 🫶🏽
Sending you love as you go through trying for your baby! It’s totally okay to be sad, disappointed, whatever you feel- it’s valid 🙏🏼 this journey is so difficult for women, supporting you girl!
And you just had that major surgery not too long ago. . you really need to give your body some time to heal, before your baby comes, right? It won't be too long before your body has healed, completely, and you can become pregnant. . your body knows.💗
So sweet of Yar. I have PCOS and it messes with fertility. We finally got pregnant naturally the first time with my son (now 7yrs old) and then tried for our second for years until I started clomid and after 3 rounds i finally got pregnant with my daughter (now 3 years old). It will happen, but I would definitely get the ball rolling and get you and Yar tested in the fertility department. No shame in getting help. ❤❤
There’s no reason to feel like you can’t talk about fertility and TTC. It’s so good to be open and honest because the TTC journey looks different for everyone and it’s not talked about enough. It doesn’t matter how long you’re trying it’s always a disappointment when you want it so bad and you get your period. I got pregnant the first time my husband and I tried. It literally took one time but I lost that baby at 9 weeks. It then took a year and a half to get pregnant again. I started ovulation tracking and I got pregnant the third cycle of tracking. I’m now 36 weeks with our rainbow baby boy and it was perfect timing. Your baby will come to you when it’s time but your feelings are still valid! ❤
I struggled for years, with medical intervention to have a baby. It's ok to grieve the loss of what could have been, and stress and trying too hard is never the reason you aren't conceiving, don't let any one tell you any different. Also men are 50% of making a baby, so make sure Yar is also tested, you should both be aware of your fertility.
Alex you’re such a kind pure soul lol like you put yourself out there every day with such Grace and authenticity
Hearing you talk about being disappointed brings back so many memories of when I was trying. It took over a year. The day I had my appointment to see a fertility specialist I found out I was pregnant with twins. I now have 4 kids (I had 4 in 5 years). I found it’s so true, when you stop stressing it happens. If and when it’s meant to. But my, it’s ok to feel the emotions, and it’s 100% ok to discuss it with whoever you like….
I would not think about babies to much just enjoy the time with your husband and it will happen for you I'm proud of the restraint you had at 50% off xmas stuff lol !! See you tomorrow
We tried for a year. I got so depressed that we gave up actively trying, very next month I was pregnant. I completely believe that the stress of trying is what prevented it. Just try to have fun with the process and know it will happen when it's supposed to. I know how hard it is to constantly hear that, but it really is true. Sending you and Yar all the baby dust!
It's harder than people make it out to be. I got pregnant with my first very quickly and easily, but miscarried. My second pregnancy happened shortly after, but we weren't really trying for it, and now I have a beautiful 21 month old. I know it sounds so cliche but try and just have fun and not put so much pressure on it, it'll happen for you guys ❤️❤️ Sending all the magic baby dust ✨✨
Don't depend on ovulation predictors. This is TMI but I got pregnant with my son on the last day of my period. Maybe your ideal time is a little early too.
Both of my pregnancies happened the day after my period ended. It will happen at the perfect time ❤
try not to turn it into a job...date nights and booze seem to work!!! Big hugs and happy vibes(it's a vibe...lol)
It will happen. Just enjoy life and don’t stress about it. I know it’s easier said than done but your body will react better that way. Who knows what the next year brings (:❤ stay positive 🤗
My advice is this as someone it took years to get pregnant learn your body and how it changes during your cycle, stay on prenatals and folic acid all through the process and just keep an open mind. Tracking basal body temp and discharge will help more than ANYTHING when trying to get pregnant, two days after your period have sex every other day if possible around fertile time if you are having regular cycles you are ovulating normally you just gotta time sex in the right 12 hour time period. It’s crazy that every month you ONLY have 12 hrs to get pregnant after ovulation occurs
Good morning, Alex. It’s nice to have a laidback, chill day. I’m exhausted after Christmas too and my daughter’s bday is the day after.. just need some down time. And keep up your positive attitude. It took us over two years to get pregnant with our first. Put it in God’s hands. Everything happens in his timing 🥰🙏❤️
Awee i thought you were going to talk about Gabby, miss her in the vlogs and you just talking to and about her. 🖤
I am a fertility specialist and pregnancy can be a lot trickier than people expect. Give it a year before you jump into fertility treatments or are concerned. You are under 35 and in good health. Try to have fun in the baby making and have sex a lot 😊 but as stress and cortisol rise these levels make things more difficult. Once you hit a year make seeing a reproductive endocrinologist can help to make sure nothing is off in terms of your and Yar’s anatomy such as blockages or low sperm. A lot of people don’t realize sperm count can also be an issue so there are a lot of factors.m
Your bravery for sharing though. I hope your able to share more with us, good & bad, all the in betweens. My husband & I will be starting IVF next year & others sharing helps me so much.
Enjoy the process and the continued time with family and friends. Your day will come, sending positive vibes your way!
Baby will happen when you least expect it!!!! Get some rest, Alex, you need it! Thank you for doing Vlogmas through the end of the month. You are the BEST!!!! xo
I’m praying that this is YOUR year to become a mom 🥹🙏 your so deserving of it!
Yes I go food shopping on Monday's too 🛑🛒🛍😝
I know exactly how you feel when you get your period and just cry. Me and my husband having been trying for a little over a year and I cry every month when my period shows up. It’s very heartbreaking but we have to try to stay positive even though it’s hard. Sending lots of baby dust your way!!
I'm truly going to hate when this ends, love this
My husband and I tried for 2 years and when we said let's just chill and next month we'll talk to our doctor about options... we got pregnant with our healthy girl, now 3! But the monthly disappointments were gut wrenching. It'll happen when and how it needs to happen. Praying for your family.❤️❤️
Alex, please don’t be hard on yourself. You need to not compare yourself to others with your fertility Journey. Everyone is different. It took us half a year to get pregnant and it happened the month we weren’t trying. Yes, losing 100 lbs can help, but if you have PCOS or other issues that can affect fertility too. You’re still young and it can take a year before you’re classified infertile
From someone who ttc for 5 years, DONT STRESS! I know, easier said then done, believe me I KNOW! But girl, your eggs are healthy, your periods are super regular, your hormones are regulated, IT WILL HAPPEN. Even for the healthiest couple it can take up to a year. Please don't stress. I now have 2 healthy children who were conceived naturally. Good things take time 😚
I’m so glad your still doing vlogmas 🎄⭐️🎄⭐️🎄⭐️
One of the things I did while trying to conceive in my 30s was reading my Bible, holding my belly n praying for God to bless my womb. I believed with all my heart as well. Some may laugh but I had faith.... I hope n pray God bless your womb soon.
When you stop thinking about having a baby and relaxing with your hubby and just being "in the moment" with him, you know what I mean? You WILL conceive.💗 God bless you both & your little furbaby.💗 I know you both will be blessed with a baby and
Have you heard from gabby ???
Bruno makes me smile 🐾💜
Alex, if you got pregnant now your last trimester, the most uncomfortable part of the entire pregnancy is going to be July , August and September . It so hot! I live in Maryland and I thought I would die when I had my July and June babies. You’re a little further north so maybe it wouldn’t be so bad but you never know. And you don’t like summer as much as you like fall and winter. This might be a silver lining to your gray cloud.!! 😘
The right soul is worth the wait. It took us 9 months for my first baby that is about to go to college next year. My second came on month 1. I remember that being the longest 9 months, which in hindsight wasn’t that long. You will make a wonderful mom! I have so enjoyed finding you this Christmas. Are you still liking your caraway pans? I am thinking about ordering some and wonder if the eggs stick.
Thank you Bridget!! Yes loving the caraway pans!! Taking good care of them to make sure they last😊
When I was trying to get pregnant I got my period the first 2 months and I was devastated. But then..... I got pregnant and BAM. it was twins. 1 boy 1 girl! My advise to you is this. Try to relax during this journey. Don't be so hard on yourself. Try not to stress yourself out. Remember to pray and know that God has your back. Your baby is coming. Just enjoy the journey and know that everything happens in the perfect time ❤
Let it happen organically, it will be there when you least expect it. Drink some wine or beverage of your choice and enjoy all the trying ;)🤩🤩
They say when you stop "trying" is when it happens! I think the stress of you wanting it so much, is going to keep it from happening. Just keep working out and working on your body and your health. It will happen in Gods time!
I love how she does vlogmas even after Christmas
Alex don't feel disheartened. Literally from the last day of your period for 5 days you are most likely to get pregnant. This was a tip given to me from my best friend after my husband and I had been trying a few months and not falling. As soon as we tried this method and stopped worrying about following my ovulation cycle it worked. I fell that month.
Don't put pressure on yourself my love it will happen xx
I finally caught up! :D I was off most of last week so just binged the last 4 days of vlogmas!
Hey did you ever hang up your holiday bulb you purchased in Canada? If we’re can we see it? It’s so cute.
It can take months and months to get pregnant. For me, we got pregnant right away but unfortunately ended in miscarriage. I am now 15 weeks pregnant with a pregnancy right after the miscarriage and the stress and anxiety is still there everyday that I hope this ends with a healthy baby.
I was lucky to get pregnant easily but it’s so different for everyone. It doesn’t help to say be patient but trust the process and it will happen!
Miss seeing your BFF Gabby
I hope you wholeheartedly do believe it is all in Gods time. My biggest dream was to be a mom since I was a young girl. After I turned 35 i gave up on that dream. A couple of weeks after I turned 36, I found out I was pregnant. We weren’t trying. So I wasn’t stressed. My partner didn’t even know I was taking a pregnancy test. Now, my world is so much happier with my 8 month old baby girl 🥰. Don’t lose hope but don’t stress yourself out! 🙏
Just to you know - My dogs paw print plaster ornament has never dried in 8 years LMFAOOO it's remained squishy!!!
Aww Miss Alex do not, I repeat DO NOT stress it or overthink it. Have fun, and when you least expect it and are thinking about it baby Rodriguez will be on its way. Also, the baby making journey is something else that no one really prepares us women for, sadly. I tried for 3 months and nada and I would cry each time and then health issues arose, so don’t you worry…IT WILL HAPPEN (In Jesus name) for you and I (& all the other women struggling)!!!!!
You just need to stop thinking about and have fun. It will happen when you least expect it. ❤ I say stop tracking and go for it!
The first 2 times I got pregnant in my early 20’s, it was towards the end of my period both times. Like I was still on my period. The third time I got pregnant a couple years ago, I miscarried at 11 weeks. And that was after seeing strong heartbeats at multiple ultrasounds. It just goes to show you that there is literally an exception to everything in pregnancy! Don’t put too much pressure on yourself about it. It will happen when it’s supposed to ♥️♥️
Love your vlogs!! And trust it will happen 😊 this time next you’ll have a little one or you will be waiting on its arrival 😊 ❤❤
Funny thing. My partner and I were trying and we were told to don’t worry about it. It’ll happen when it happens. And literally two months later of not worrying we got a positive!
You need to let it go relax don’t overthink, stress it or it will take longer they say.
83 degrees outside in September and I'm watching last years Vlogmas....😂😂😂
There is some goo stuff that comes in a spray bottle and works instantly !! For the stickers
I don't want vlogmas to end 😭😭😭
Not sure how long you were on birth control but after years of being on prevention it took her a year and a half to get pregnant, her body needed to reset I think. All will happen in Gods time. Prayers for a sweet baby for you guys you’ll be wonderful parents!
Believe it or not ... the more you think about getting pregnant .. the less it will be likely to happen.. take it out of your mind ... when it happens when it happens ... focus on other things
TRUST ME 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈💕🦋🦋🦋🦋
I keep going with Christmas til new years eve 🥰 I keep my tree up til Jan 2nd so you do you girl
Hi Alex I’ve been binge watching VLOGMAS that’s a cool coffee machine you got for Yarmin is it worth the money? I have a Nespresso but im just curious 😂 anyway I love watching your vlogs you and your family are so fun to watch especially MAMA FEARLESS WOOO !!!!!!!!💕💕💕💕💕
Good morning Alex I have PCOS I do not ovulate by myself when I have my son who is now eight years old I used Clomid to help me ovulate I got pregnant right away. Literally the first time I used the medicine. I’m currently trying for a second my doctor prescribed me Clomid for a second time and it didn’t work as fast but I’m still hopeful. May God bless you ❤
Don't stress yourself and your husband, then it just becomes a "job". You want to have fun with it, also everyone is different so don't expect what one thing happened to someone else will happen to you. You and your husband just need to enjoy it and not stress, yes that's way easier said than done. I know. Sending prayers that you get pregnant soon!! Love your channel and family!! ❤️🙏
Just because other people have maybe been trying longer, does not mean that your feelings are not valid. You are not being insensitive at all. It can be such an exciting time but also mentally exhausting, no matter if you have been trying for a short or long period of time. ❤ keep your spirits high, sending baby dust your way!
Cut out all sugars and carbs for 30 days doing keto again and practice all month with your hubs and see what happens.
I'm always seeing post about keto people finally getting pregnant.
🤞🤞 best of luck to the both of you! You're going to be great parents when it happens.
Your allowed to feel that way!! Don’t feel that you shouldn’t since “other” people might judge you. The best thing is you let it go and try again.
We love our sentimental tree in the living room. We get a clay ornament every year with our names and year. We also get our favorite ornaments from hallmark like Mickey, Star Wars and favorite tv shows.
FYI...I have the same beverage/ice bucket and it didn't occur to me at first but if you turn it around the back is blank and now I use it for every occasion all year long!! DUH...LOL! Now I get so much use out of it!!
Don’t stress about not being pregnant. It doesn’t always happen right away. I know it can be a bummer when it doesn’t happen. Some people it takes them a whole year of actively trying.
If too long goes by and you aren't conceiving make sure Yar gets checked also.
When I got pregnant with my second I had lost 70 lb and it took about 6 months before I got pregnant. It's also okay to be sad when your period comes. ❤️❤️
I know everyone is different BUT… for me, my oldest and youngest were surprise babies. For those two, we thought we were “safe” cuz I was at the end of my period. Boom, instant pregnancy. Our middle child was planned, did the ovulation tracking and everything you’re supposed to do to get pregnant…he took MONTHS to conceive! Stay positive!
Also, you look amazing in black ❤
My son too - "too early" to get pregnant. Best gift ever!
And definitely my biggest advice would be to not expect it. I remember going into the doctors office because I was throwing up every morning and have diarrhea a couple weeks before I started throwing up every day lol I mean this is say I lost probably 15 to 20 pounds my first trimester. Anyways my husband‘s family assumed I was pregnant I just remember getting the blood test results and expecting to read negative. I literally started crying when I opened it and seen positive on the paper. I avoided to open the envelope while inside the doctors office because I didn’t want people to see my face of disappointment, but to my surprise I immediately started crying happy tears because it finally happened. ❤
Just don’t track - trust me. Been here. Done this. The tracking sets expectations. Just let it be natural and it will happen. I promise. The tracking is a no. (For me-when I quit I was pregnant that same month. )
When I first met my husband like the first week I ended up pregnant at 22 years old. At 28 years old I was ready to have another one and we tried so hard. I bought preseed, ov test, teas, dextox stuff, moringa you name it and almost a year later nothing. I went to the doctor and he said my sugar was high so gave me metaformin and that same month got pregnant. Now I am 30 and me and my husband were not careful like 2 or 3 times last month and guesssss what🙃
I tried telling you its not that easy as people think to get pregnant. When you least expect it it'll happen don't force it babes
When I was trying for children, I was constantly thinking about it and obsessed over it. My doctor told me to relax and let it go. Once I did, I got pregnant with twins! Maybe you could let it go and live your life. It’s never in our control or timing, it’s in Gods control.
Took me 3 years and miscarriages for my first and 3 months with my second. The universe works in mysterious ways. Baby dust to you & hubs!
What I love about vlogmas is how Bruno has taken to his schedule of advent calendar and what is he going to do when it is gone? Poor baby he is going to be so lost!!!
Theresamg74
The coffee maker I got the same machine
I suggest you don’t use the coffee ground function it’s been a mess for a lot of ppl just do the whole bean coffee if you can also it cleans itself every time you turn it on and off that is what the catcher is for on the bottom the silver thing ..
My morning routine is watching your vlog.
Love it
Everyone always told me it would be so easy, tried for a year. Was told it would happen when we least expected it. Tried another six months then had a possible chemical pregnancy, and decided to take a break. My heart could not handle another positive ovulation and never a positive pregnancy. Happy we did because we've decided just to wait anyway,
I agree you should let things go and be at least for a few months. It makes your body stress.
Aww Alex your period story reminded me of when i was trying it was almost two years of trying and it was Mother’s Day in may 2020 and I got my period that day and I was so upset, of course of all days it was Mother’s Day and then the next month on June 16th 2020 I found out I was pregnant !
sending you good vibes. I've had the same surgery and you're only a year out so you're still making progress and your body knows what its doing. Trust in that and it will happen because you are doing what you are supposed to and when you least expect it BAM!!! baby!!! Keep the faith!!!!
I love that you celebrate Christmas the whole month of December! Me too!! Bruno!
The Santa Hats in car are just the cutest! I love when you do the advent calender with Bruno!
So, I’ve lost 165 in 10 months. I had gastric sleeve surgery. My face has really gotten so thin. I went from a 6X to XL now.
Good morning, Alex! Hope your family had a nice Christmas! Keep your head up with TTC. It can definitely be an emotional roller coaster. I swear it happens when you don’t stress about it. Sending you all the love and baby dust ❤
Everyone’s TTC journey is sooo different. My mom got pregnant with me and my brother on the first and second try, while it took my husband and I 9 months, bloodwork, acupuncture and a miracle haha….then, when I talked to a friend about how long it took, she told me that she’s been trying for two
whole years! It’s all about perspective, whether it be 3 months or 3 years. Everyone telling me to relax just made me more stressed, but in hindsight I do wish I had stayed more positive and just done acupuncture sooner. It’s also hard when you tell people you are TTC because then they keep asking you every month and the sting of disappointment hurts more. All I can say is that you’re right - it’s in God’s hands and you’re smart to just be patient and track your ovulation.
Sending you baby dust!! ❤
12 days of Christmas! You have until January 5th. Enjoy!!!
Good morning Alex!!! So happy to see your Vlogmas! ❤
Love you Alex. Good morning ❤
Not getting pregnant when you have been trying is heartbreaking - whether you have been trying a couple months or years. Your feelings are so valid ❤
I had a lot of problems getting pregnant with my first and I remember when I would get my period I was devastated. You have every right to speak what you’re feeling regardless how long you have been trying :-) I went on to have three amazing sons - thank you for being so truthful!
Keep your head up it will happen... when I had my first child I thought I was pregnant in December then my period came but in January I was in fact pregnant... same thing happened with my second so don't give up it'll happen
Thinking of you guys. I’m there right now. It’s only been a couple months.
Alex, I love you🥰 i care about you and your sweet, beautiful family. I promise you I will pray for you… I believe that God will provide!!!!! And when He does, you are going to be an amazing mom❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ happy birthday, merry Christmas, and Happy new year!!!
Love,
Rosy
This may be TMI but everytime i go to homegoods, Tj maxx, Marshalls ETC i get that tummy ache!!!! i thought i was the only one!!!
