Oh Katie, I remember being in your state of mind right after the birth, before that I was nesting and preparing and this anxiety attacked me after we were home with our boy. And all I can say about that is that you need to prepare for not being prepared for anything. Babies are little cute aliens that confuse our whole world but make it perfect at the same time. You will need to slow down just a little bit after your boy comes, simply because you will get yourself,Ryan and all routines you have back in some sort of schedule faster that way. Good luck! ❤❤
I loved this vlog so much. I cannot thank you enough for being so vulnerable with us. I know it takes a lot of courage to do that. Vlogs like this make me feel less alone when I have those rare anxious moments
You are so beautiful. Take it easy and enjoy your new baby. You can never get that time back. That’s all that matters. Thank you for being so open and sharing so much about yourself.
Coffee grounds for body scrub and for the garden. You are so prepared for your new journey. You have such a great teamlsf now, let them take the reins a bit so you, Ryan & LBD have the best start. PS just don’t blink as they grow way too fast! My baby just turned 40 this year and my grandbabies are now 12, 12 & 10. What happened!!!!!!
As for the coffee grinds i usually keep on hand an empty jar or can preferably with lid. Like empty jar of olives or empty jar of saurkraut. The moisture from coffee grounds if thrown out as is in garbage will either melt garbage bag or cause a leak. Hope it helps.
Katie we have got your back. Watching you gone through all of this we know it's not easy, we look forward to the arrival of LBD :) We love you and you are the best
Love this video...coffee grounds. I use in the garden and also you can put them around your home great bug and lizard deterant and natural! U can also use them as a scrub on your body my friend does that all the time and swears by it
You better relax now and sleep because once baby comes you’re not going to sleep. And believe me, once you’re sleep deprived (and it doesn’t take long 1-2 days) you won’t even recognize your own self inside and out. My advice, DO NOT, try to bounce back to “normal life” asap like I did. I’m being dead serious, feed yourself as you will be starving from nursing, feed your baby, put your feet up, and relax as much as possible. Nursing a newborn, pretty much takes all your efforts and time. This time is fleeting, we’re talking 3-6 weeks, just clear your schedule, order door dash, don’t try to bounce back, get a housekeeper, get someone to cook and do laundry, you’re going to be busy feeding eating and feeding baby, and changing. Also, I’m going to save you a ton of time and money, for your pelvic floor after baby, all you need is to rebound on a trampoline, only after you get cleared by doctor. I’m telling you people say they can’t trampoline because they will pee. Once you do it daily (3-10 min or more) you won’t have that peeing issue. If you don’t do it for awhile your pelvic floor becomes weak and you might have that urge if you sneeze or something with full bladder.
Idk who needs to hear this but…Life as an adult can be very stressful. Trying to figure out if rather should you go left or right , and all these other things…but I want you to understand this.TAKE YOUR TIME❤. Ik they say time wait or no one and that true but never drive yourself to a point of a burn out or anything that will makes you feel anxiety when you think about it. Make a simple plan for yourself and do what’s best for you. ❤
Katie!! You’re going to be the best mom!!! (And Ryan will be the best dad!) This time is going to be wonderful, but it is a big change! And that’s ok! You’ll make new norms and new routines and you’ll have one of the best blessings! Enjoy your time with LBD!!!!! Personally I can’t wait for Mom content! 😂🎉
I don’t know how much of your income comes from UA-cam, but we are going to watch absolutely anything you put on here. I can’t wait for baby day in the life videos. You are going to rock motherhood. I hope we get to meet him. I understand if you choose not to show him, though. Put the coffee grounds in the garden! You can bury them a little or just sprinkle on top of the bed.
ENJOY YOUR BABY. Do not feel the need to rush, to get things “done”, just lay with your baby and smell his head. For real. It flies by. Nothing else matters.
I enjoy following your day in the life videos…I have picked up several great easy recipes! Please give yourself grace once the baby arrives. Every mother and child relationship is unique, and while you will do great, it will be hard ❤️. Check out Dr Becky and Anna Mathur if you haven’t already.
You are going to put your baby in his room after only a few weeks ? Katie please don’t be one of those mums who lets a text book study take away from natural, maternal instincts. Babies should be in your room for a minimum of 6 months. I’m not sure how it’s become normal to seperate a child from its mother so young. Trust me once baby is here you will want to keep baby in your room for as long as possible. No one wants to get up and walk to the other room every time your feeling anxious, to check if he’s ok or to feed every 1-2 hours. They cry and need their pacifier or they might have wind, colic or reflux and you need to get up and check them, change them, clean up vomit or a blow out, administer medicines ect 😳 it’s so much easier to lean across your bed and check he is ok. Have a caddy next to your bed with all colic medicines, dummies. Wipes, nappies, spare clothes and sheets. When you are sleep deprived you won’t be walking to their room to change them, you will just change them on your bed. Have a hamper for all dirty linen and clothes because you will go through several outfits and sheets through the night when they are little. Milk leaking, baby throw up ect. You will have an unconditional bond and you won’t want to be separated. You will want to be able to see their every move to ensure they are safe, by your side. It’s a beautiful experience and don’t let science or silly studies take that away from you. Trust your instincts, not research.
I’m going to do what feels best to me and what the research and professionals say will be best for him. Our house isn’t massive, so him being a room away is totally fine. It also creates healthy attachment for me and for him. I really believe too many parents get anxiety and attachment issues because they create a world where they can’t be apart from there child. That’s fine if someone wants to do that, but important for me to do it differently.
Luv your channel I hope you stay true to your self even after baby! I tend to look down on these women who use their baby in their videos I feel it is so violating and intrusive because that baby has really no choice or control.
Ty! I'm sure he will be in some videos like vlogs, etc. But my main focus for all my channels is going to be helping women reach their health/fitness goals!

I do a "lazy compost" and put my coffee grounds in my garden! Just by mixing it in the soil

Get a compost bin for the grounds it’s small and then when it’s full put it in the garden!
Loved this Katie!!! Can’t wait for little boy to come ,,, take care !!!

Katie I just know your going to do great! Your going to be a great mom! 😀
Compost your coffee grounds in the garden!! Black gold ✨️
How do you like that hair dryer? I am lazy with my hair and have tried using a curly wand but struggled a lot with it
What oils you use on your face. And what oils do you use in the defuser

Put the coffee grounds in the garden! You can bury them a little or just sprinkle on top of the bed.
Where did you get that pink cabinet behind you? Love ALL your videos. Blessings!
Best hack ever! Put coffee grounds in a bag and stick them in your freezer. Easy was to compost + it won’t smell gross
I think you left an Easter egg alluding to LBD's name...love, love, love it.
Can you link where you got the robe you were wearing when you did your hair mask. Thx in advance!
ENJOY YOUR BABY. Do not feel the need to rush, to get things “done”, just lay with your baby and smell his head. For real. It flies by. Nothing else matters.
Coffee is good to put in your garden
Katie, what tool did you use to curl your hair?
I put my coffee grounds in our compost bin 😊
LBD countdown 🙌❤️👐
Definitely put your coffee grounds in the garden. They are a great,sorce of nitrogen🤗
Just get a bassinet with locking wheels so you can move it to eaither side of the bed or house so u can rest whenever you need to .
Omg don’t throw your coffee grounds! Add coconut oil and use as body scrub, it’s the best! X
You are so cute and sweet! Best wishes these next few weeks!! 💞
That eye shadow on you 😍 do you remember what you used?
My family scoops them in the trash as well
Why does anyone still use TikTok? I love your channel!
How do I verify that I won a prize from your drawing?
Which prize do you mean? There was someone trying to scam in the comments on UA-cam, so if you got a reply about a prize here, ignore that :)
@@LoveSweatFitness thank you I did get a message than it was deleted. They were love sweet fitness.
