Wow, you really are in your mama era! Congrats on your mama phase and sending good vibes as possible as I could through screen via words of my keyboard that came from my phone as an another comment. 🤍
I needed this so much. Thank you for sharing kalyn. You bring me so much peace and motivation🤍 you and your family are so beautiful. I love your kitchen by the way!!
Thank you so much 🤍🥹
the kitchen now makes the rooms flows so well! I really like it too ☺️
Thank you for continuing to put out these vlogs during your postpartum❤ if you needed to hear it, i think youre doing amazing handling it all. Also i think you mentioned in the previous vlog how you were handling wanting to be there for Easton and now having new baby. Are things still going ok? Is he still adjusting to the new baby?
Thank you so much! 🫶🏼 Also, he’s doing so well 🥲 it was about a week or two of highs and lows and now he’s well adjusted, actually I think we all are better adjusted now because I’m also able to tend to him more again. He calls Landen “brudder” (brother lol) and tries to show him his books and toys, it makes my whole flipping day. Thanks for checking in ♥️
They will be best friends forever 💞
Kalyn I am so happy for you !
Your vlogs bring me peace and joy !
I'm looking forward for your cozy vibes this autumn !
I love your vlogs, thank you for making them even tho you just became a mum again. It’s just so beautiful to witness you growing into the woman you are, cry with you and laugh with you. I loved this vlog especially with the voiceover. It was just beautiful🤍🤍🤍
This was such a sweet and wise vlog 🥰 I’m not a mom, but I always feel like I gain so much wisdom and perspective from the way that you walk yourself through handling these changes and anxieties. Thank you so much for being here for us. I pray things are continuing to go well!. I think you’re doing absolutely amazing 🥰😘🥰
I really love watching these postpartum vlogs. I’m currently 38 weeks with a little girl and I have a toddler so I’m getting a lot of great tips from you and keeping them in mind when my peanut decides to show up.
As much as I would love to watch this, it breaks my heart ‘cause I have had two misscariages this year and my dad died. I love your videos, love seeing your little family, but I will miss on those videos for a few months. I just can’t see you this happy when I am heartbroken ❤
I’m so sorry for all of your loss 😞 I hope there is someone taking good care of you in this season of life, that is so much to go through at once. I’m sending you a lot of love!
@@KalynNicholsonthank you ❤ My fiance is trying to do his best. I hope 2025 will be much better. This just isn’t my year.
I love that you're rewatching Gilmore Girls, I am too. And thank you for sharing all of this with us. My partner and I are going to start a family soon and I'm pretty anxious, but this makes me feel more calm and empowered.
I needed this. I'm also a postpartum mama. My son is two months old and was finally diagnosed with silent acid reflux. He's my first and we've been having a hard time navigating this journey which has led me to develop postpartum anxiety. Your vlog was like a reassuring friend. Thank you for sharing your life with us! ❤
Every Kalyn video needs to be first liked, then watched 😍
I hope you are also planning on some autumn 🍁 themed videos! ❤
Already have a few filmed just working through my video assembly list editing wise 🫶🏼
I’m so happy to see you being kind to yourself and as you say “soaking it in” mine have grown now and I’m watching you feeling very grateful see a part of your baby days as I miss mine ❤🙏 much love to you Kalyn and your lil boys..treasure it!
Also, what is the song playing when you're doing the yoga stretch? I love the guy's voice!
I am in awe of your how you were able to stretch... I'm 6 weeks postpartum and there are things I'm still struggling with physically- even going for a half hour walk leaves me feeling so uncomfortable. Maybe the answer is MORE movement!
I am finding your postpartum content so comforting, thank you for taking time to share this content ❤
This was such a sweet video ❤
I so resonate with what you're saying. I lived in fear of falling behind with my first baby & I hope to move a bit slower & take time to rest more when I have a second. BUT I think there's so much pressure on social media to "soak it up" & like fear mongering that it will be over when you blink. Yes, it does go so fast. But I also don't think it's helpful to guilt yourself for not staring lovingly at your baby 8 hours a day (speaking to myself as much as to anyone else). *sigh* You're doing the best you can, and you're doing an amazing job.
Gosh you’re so right!! I’m very guilty of falling into that trap too, thank you for that reminder ♥️
My son turns two years old next month! Unbelievable! 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
Always a super comforting video ❤
No! They will always need you!! (I say without actual knowledge as my oldest is only 5 but I refuse to think about him not needing me one day)
You're right, I think they'll always need us, but just not need me in the same way in terms of swaying to sleep, contact naps, long long cuddles that absorb any time for anything else 🥲 its so bittersweet
@@KalynNicholson So true, it’s so bittersweet. I try to remind myself that it’s actually an accomplishment, my child not needing those things. And though that’s true, I’m the worst for mourning the loss of a stage instead of welcoming the excitement of the next. Ugh, it’s so hard. Enjoy it for as long as you have it!! ❤️❤️
Kalyn you are such a beautiful mom. Your man is super lucky!
How many years are between you and Kyra? And how did you hear about ritual vitamins?
Watching this cuddling my three week old ☺️💕 solidarity from the depths of the new born portal✨
This was so beautiful and raw. Thank you for sharing this transforming time and experience with us 🤍
This is the sweetest vlog every ❤ thank you so much for uploading even though your lofe has just gone through a huge shift 💕 truely look forward to watchinf your videos anytime you upload ❤
Thank you for your commitment to post these calming, and nurturing vlogs. Perfect addition to this rainy season
What kind of carrier is that?
Watching you grow so beautifully Kalyn 🥰🥰🥰 I remember watching my first video of you moving to Toronto to start the City Life ❤️
Saw you at the store a couple weeks ago and have to say that I’m so glad for you. You’re looking so healthy, happy.
beautiful!🍂
Your doing a great job ❤
Yay, this was a lovely very "you" vlog. It's nice to feel connected with Kalyn again. These kind of kinds of vlogs are my faves 💓
Do you share the information about songs in your vlogs anywhere? I can't find that "better part of me" song to save my life but I love it!
I just had my second baby as well, 6 days ago. I loved all of your nesting vlogs but I loved these postpartum videos even more ❤ thank you for sharing your journey
Sometimes, I wonder how you even find the strength and positivity in yourself to share such reflections of how important the beauty of the present moment is and how temporary it is. Being so busy with home chores and responsibilities, and nourishing a baby, etc., you still are able to share such a big chunk of positivity that is so refreshing. For me, at least, sometimes I get pessimistic, and I think this has kept me subscribed to your channel for so many years---the sheer amount of positivity, the beauty of life, and the possibility for mental clarity you transmit through your videos. xx
The ending brought me to tears! I am one month postpartum with baby #4. I had an emergency c section this time, so it has been especially difficult to get back to myself again. Also trying to find balance between getting things done and cherishing my last baby! So bittersweet
I honestly hate thinking back on how stressed I was the year of wedding planning.
My fiancé wanted to elope, while I wanted a medium sized wedding. We ended up having a kind of small-ish wedding (invited 100 but only 75 came, including us lol).
I sooo wish I had deleted tiktok and never gotten on bride/wedding planning Facebook groups. I thought I was getting “inspo” but really I was just seeing so much trash and drama and yuck.
Trying to find the perfect middle on everything was also so stressful. Family stuff was stressful…I so relate to the feeling you mentioned of not feeling like I was doing enough.
We tried so hard to keep the budget down but it still wasn’t cheap - at the same time, it was on the lower end of most weddings now-a-days.
All that being said…we had a great day. It was beautiful. Every detail I meticulously planned came out great. We were surrounded by loved ones. The wedding party was amazing. Everyone was just happy to be there. It felt very much like it was about us getting married and not just some “show” we were putting on.
You’re doing it right! Release the guilt of Mommy multitasking! Enjoy and relish every moment of when they’re babies, it goes by so fast! Spend hours staring at him & him giving zerberts, playing with your first and singing along with his favorite shows. It’s been 16 years since my last child and I’m so grateful that I took that time! Take walks, roll around in fallen leaves, and forget about the housework. You have all your life you keep a clean house later, make priceless memories now. 💖
I have been following you for a very long time, and have grown with you. I always saw you as somewhat of my soul sister, everything you talked about in previous videos and life chapters just happened to resonate with my life and challenges so deeply. It's been beautiful to watch you in this new season of your life. At first, it scared me!! I'm 23 and not starting a family any time soon, and am somewhat sensitive to this sort of life chapter. But slowly, as I have watched you share your life as a mother and with a newborn, something new has clicked in me and I feel myself so strongly attached to you and your content again. I don't know how to explain it, but thank you for everything. You mean so much to me, Kayln! I'm a silent viewer but am always supporting you
I feel like everyone handled postpartum better than me. The fact that you had time to do your hair….. my baby is 6 months old and I still haven’t done my hair once lol
🥰
I'm usually a silent viewer but I just want to say I see you and appreciate you Kalyn. 💛 I chose not have any children, but I am always in awe of the power of motherhood. It's so beautiful that you are reminding yourself to cherish these moments (because everything else will still be there as you said) ✨️ I lost my beautiful mom this summer. Now my heart swells more than ever when I witness this beautiful bond of mother and child. ❤
🤗💟👍
❤
Thank you for these vlogs and sharing your life with us still after all these years. I was watching your vlogs when Easton was born and how you and Vicki would go for a walk or she would come over and help with tasks. She would be so proud of you and your little family 🤍💫✨
Thank you for saying that 🤍🥺
Not the series for me as i am not a mom and will never be a mom but glad others enjoy it ❤
Same, not my type of content.Patiently waiting for the new gyst series or autumn videos❤
You feel like my Pisces sister, in similar seasons of life. I am 8 months post partum with my first and watching you go through your second is magical. I’m so grateful to get an update on you Kalyn. Enjoying the season is exactly where you need to be. Happy for you, impressed by you, grateful for you. 🦋🩵💙
I needed this video and the outro talk she decided to end with, which reminded me why I chose to be here as a viewer of this channel in the first place. 🤍
