I am so amazed that there are so short maternaty leaves in other countries. Here in Norway we have 54 weeks😍 I am super grateful for having so long time with my children, and would wish others to have the same opportunity
Wow 12 weeks sounds tough to me. In Germany you can take up to 3 years, and get almost fully payed for 12 months or even longer if you are willing to take losses of your income... Love your videos!!!!!
12 weeks is actually more than most ppl in America get. I took one week off which was my vacation time I had saved. We are so behind other countries. Most jobs here have no vacation days here let alone maternity leave so u don't even get paid. Plus paying all the OB & hospital bills. It's sad.
In england its 12 months for working mums if your a young mum and at school you get 12 weeks to split before and after birth so you really only get 10 weeks if you stay on till 38 weeks but if your babys late then your looking at maybe 8 weeks and you still have to have tutors coming to your house to work with you so you never actually get a break
12 weeks Maternity leave, I couldn't imagine. I'm Canadian and we're lucky enough to get 12 months. Great tips! Girls night, yay! We definitely need those once in a while eh 😊
Me too. I'm from Poland and we have 12 months payed 80% of your salary (or 6 months payer 100%) and now I live in Germany, where is 14 months maternity leave payed 67% of your salary.
Caitlin Smith a week or two!? Oh wow. What about women who has c-sections? I've had two and they're major surgery, you're not even healed after a couple weeks.
I love your videos! I'm also on leave right now with a toddler and a 1 month old. I'd love to know what kind of a daily routine you have for yourself and the kiddos while your hubby is at work. Thanks for making great videos!
you are so inspiring! Most of youtube moms are stay at home, but it's nice to also work and stay active. Btw here in my country (Romania, Europe) we have 2 years of maternity leave. Love your videos!
Love this! Recently found out I'm expecting #2 and one thing I'm so glad I did to prep for maternity leave was freezer meals to throw in the oven or crockpot! Such a time saver when you have a little one attached to your chest with cluster feeds. I noticed your stroller, what kind is it? I couldn't tell if it was one for a toddler and infant or not. That's a good idea for a video, for whats worked with you having a toddler and newborn. Thanks for sharing!
Lovely video! Wishing you a smooth transition back to work Bri 💗 My tip is, if you're new to your neighbourhood join your local mother's or playgroup. I joined a mother's group even though I was a second time mum and it was so nice to make mama friends in the area as we have no family near us 💖
What kind of stroller do you have? Maybe you can do a video on essentials or things we don't need. I just found out I'm pregnant with #2. My first is 7 years old now. Honestly, I thought we were done and I feel like I forgot everything. I'm super nervous to start over again but excited about a new baby!!!! Looking forward to seeing how you handle two kids.
Cleaning routine now that you have a baby. I have a 7 year old and a 5 year old and a soon to be 4 month old and I don't know about you all mommys out here but I am so ready for school to start lol 😂
I also think meal planning/prepping helps. Even if it is buying a few pizza gift cards to use once the baby/babies arrive, it can be a help! Having dinner delivered once in a while is fun for any other kiddos you might have and it usually is a smaller clean up for mama. :)
I would really love to see a video about your experience with lash extensions as a mom and how you take care of them. Can you wash your face like normal and remove eye makeup etc?
Kristin Pummer in my experience you have to be much more careful no oil products on or near your eyes you should brush them with a spooley each time you get them wet and try to keep that to a minimum no eye rubbing or mascara unless it's for use with extensions or only on the tips and don't sleep with your eyes mushed in the pillow lol
Brianna K thank you! Your precious Landon and Presley have made me feel better today just by watching them! 😘😘 Also, your car cleaning video was my favorite😂
I would love some videos on decluttering and organizing around the home. Your house always looks so great and would love some tips! So excited for more videos! You look great and hope your family is doing wonderful after P has arrived! 😊
I went back to work a week after my c section because I unfortunately work for family which is most of the time worse than working for someone else lol I wish I could put this video to use. Sounds amazing
Such a great video. I have been watching your pregnancy updates with Presley since I just recently found I'm expecting. It's been nice to see your journey. Love that Lola box so cute. 😆❤
great tips! I am struggling getting dinner together while working 4 days a week w/an 8 month old. Do you have any hacks on this topic? Thanks! Your kiddos are adorable!
I saw another video that said to meal prep and freeze the food you aren't gonna eat in a timely manner . Just take 1 day a week to cook a bunch of different foods and freeze them or put them in the fridge.
Love your videos! Can you make one about tips for having 2 little ones at home? I'm about to have my second and they will be similar in age as yours. I'm not sure how we will be able to handle them both. Did you make any changes to Landon's routine?
Great tips! I love your videos and I'm happy you're getting back into the swing of things, those first couple months are so hard! I'd love a DITL when you get back to work since I'm looking to go back to work soon too :)
I had a year off, then got pregnant during month 11 of mat leave and then only had to work9 and a half months to get another year off. I went back to work and after 3 months took 3 weeks vacation. It was great. Also no hospital bills in Canada and I had extra insurance through work so I had a private room.
Theresa Spencer hi! I'm 29 weeks pregnant and expecting my son in September as well!! I just started my new mommy and lifestyle channel. I have a few videos posted so far and I would love for you to come check it out and subscribe ❣️
I recently started back to work after 7 weeks off because I didn't not yet qualify for FMLA and only had 6 weeks of disability. I would love tips about how to handle leaving and going back to work.
Great tips! Also, this is random but I love your approach on sponsorships. The products you choose are things I could actually see myself using and the way you talk about them seems so genuine. A lot of you tubers who do sponsored videos seem so fake and scripted. Enjoy the rest of your maternity leave!! 🙂 I'm from the Cleveland area as well. Hopefully our dang weather gets better soon and we get some sunshine!!
I wish could do me time without feeling mommy guilt. I hate how anything that I do for myself I always end up feeling guilty for not including my baby. Now pregnant with baby #2 is even worse. 😢 I need help lol
Women in America definitely need more time with there newborn. For the babies health & the mothers health. It would be great to have paid maternity leave for 6 - 12 months.
Jesus! 12 weeks maternity leave is CRAZY! How on earth is this possible in one of the richest country on the planet...well apparently. In England you get 9 months, although pay depends on your employer, and usually isn't great. Meanwhile all post-communist countries get at least 12 months full paid leave , including my country of origin: Poland 😉
But you don't start your period while you're breast feeding (that what my mom told me at least..) so you won't need tampons but I'll bet pads for post partuum bleeding (didn't know this happens either)
Brianna! Quick question!! Did your heartburn go away after you gave birth? I am 35w and my heartburn is terrible.. it's to the point where I don't think it will ever go away! Lol
Chloe Harmon Yablinsky Yes girl heartburn leaves the moment you give birth. At least for me it did. I had nasty heartburn while in labor and it sucked.
pffftt must be nice to get all that time off. I have to work up to my due date then go back to work in 4 weeks cause my maternity leave is unpaid and minimum wage won't cover the cost of living...
I am so amazed that there are so short maternaty leaves in other countries. Here in Norway we have 54 weeks😍 I am super grateful for having so long time with my children, and would wish others to have the same opportunity

Love your videos!!!!!
NadjaSings here in Canada we get 1 full year paid but can take up to 18 months with pay decrease. I can't imagine having only 12 weeks!!!!
12 weeks is actually more than most ppl in America get. I took one week off which was my vacation time I had saved. We are so behind other countries. Most jobs here have no vacation days here let alone maternity leave so u don't even get paid. Plus paying all the OB & hospital bills. It's sad.
NadjaSings In America it varies by company, some 4 wks, 6 wks, up to usually 12 wks maximum.
I'd never return this fast! Too soon after birth seems unfair
In england its 12 months for working mums if your a young mum and at school you get 12 weeks to split before and after birth so you really only get 10 weeks if you stay on till 38 weeks but if your babys late then your looking at maybe 8 weeks and you still have to have tutors coming to your house to work with you so you never actually get a break

Julie Bee man lucky y'all! it's so sad how short it is & I'm not even a momma yet 😭. 12 months is perfect. 😭
Omg I was thinking how she was so lucky to get 12 weeks!! A lot of women have to go back to work a week or two after giving birth here 😥
Brianna K do it girl!!!
Caitlin Smith a week or two!? Oh wow. What about women who has c-sections? I've had two and they're major surgery, you're not even healed after a couple weeks.
I found these tips helpful just being a stay at home mom. It can be rough and isolating. Thank you
loved this! it is so important for mommas to take time for themselves to be able to be their best! agree 100%
I love your videos! I'm also on leave right now with a toddler and a 1 month old. I'd love to know what kind of a daily routine you have for yourself and the kiddos while your hubby is at work. Thanks for making great videos!

Alejandra Mousa I second this!!!
I third this!! lol
That's incredible!
We are only granted 4 to 6 weeks, if we qualify for FMLA.
I'm currently on maternity leave, I get 39 weeks paid leave. I live in Northern Ireland. I couldn't imagine going back to work so soon! 😭
Cleaning routine now that you have a baby. I have a 7 year old and a 5 year old and a soon to be 4 month old and I don't know about you all mommys out here but I am so ready for school to start lol 😂
Emmianna 1802 I'm ready lol I have a 6 yr old and 7week
You are looking great Brianna! So happy to hear an update from you with these tips 😊 Glad you and baby are doing well!

I know I sound crazy, but I’ve been home sick all day and I’ve been binge watching your videos😍😂 you do an awesome job!
Brianna K thank you! Your precious Landon and Presley have made me feel better today just by watching them! 😘😘 Also, your car cleaning video was my favorite😂
I would love some videos on decluttering and organizing around the home. Your house always looks so great and would love some tips! So excited for more videos! You look great and hope your family is doing wonderful after P has arrived! 😊
I have missed you so much too! And Landon! More Landon! 😂❤️❤️❤️ welcome back! So excited for new content! Hope your routine is smooth now!
I just clicked on you're video and thought, "is she at the kiddy park?" And omggg you were haha small world. Go Cleveland!
I went back to work a week after my c section because I unfortunately work for family which is most of the time worse than working for someone else lol I wish I could put this video to use. Sounds amazing
I never felt like I got to bond. Because I went back to work so quickly. Life. Lol.
Omg Brianna thank you so much for this video super helpful. Sometimes I don't make time to get out of the house and I feel crazy when I don't.
This was great! Please do something about your new routine when you go back to work :)
12 weeks??? Is that all? I couldn't imagine going back so soon! In the U.K. We get a whole year! Great tips and video xx
Such a great video. I have been watching your pregnancy updates with Presley since I just recently found I'm expecting. It's been nice to see your journey. Love that Lola box so cute. 😆❤
I feel so bad you only get 12 weeks. Just doesn't seem right when us Canadians get a full year !
Cheryl White i wish i got 12. Im only taking 8 because its unpaid
My maternity leave is only 6 weeks @ $200/week and I saved 2 weeks of PTO. So I can only take 8.
great tips! I am struggling getting dinner together while working 4 days a week w/an 8 month old. Do you have any hacks on this topic? Thanks! Your kiddos are adorable!
I saw another video that said to meal prep and freeze the food you aren't gonna eat in a timely manner . Just take 1 day a week to cook a bunch of different foods and freeze them or put them in the fridge.
Going outside everyday definitely helps getting a baby on a sleep schedule
Love your videos!

nandalimamelo yes I agree I'm due for my second anytime now and I'm so nervous.
How early do you take your newborn out?
Great tips! I love your videos and I'm happy you're getting back into the swing of things, those first couple months are so hard! I'd love a DITL when you get back to work since I'm looking to go back to work soon too :)

I'm glad it's getting easier and hopefully she'll sleep more for you! Missed you glad to see your beautiful face :)
Love the videos! Can you please do a video on push presents? I believe I saw you mentioning it back in one of your earlier videos :)
I ordered from Lola and used your code! Thank you.
But you don't start your period while you're breast feeding (that what my mom told me at least..) so you won't need tampons but I'll bet pads for post partuum bleeding (didn't know this happens either)
I love your videos. They have helped me so much. Thank you!!!!
I Love your couch!!! Can you tell me the name of it or where you got it?
Which nursing pillow is that?? Looks bigger and nicer than a Boppy! I need one!
Mat leave in jamaica is 8 weeks paid and 4 weeks unpaid
Just ordered a box of 18 from MyLola for $4 with free shipping. I would say I'm excited to try out the product, but that would be kinda weird LOL
Omg!! In Russia we have 3 years for maternity leave from any company...
Insightful advice Brianna!
She’s so cute
12 weeks? So hard to be mum in US! I have almost 14 months and think this is waaaay to short
I enjoy watching your videos so much!! 😍🤗
Memphis Kiddie Park! 216 represent! Love it!
thanx brianna great tips. looking gorgeous as always 😊😊😊
I'm really interested in this promotion but when I went to check out it only took 7$ off not 60% of my order!
Brianna K Thank you let me know if you figure it out!
looking gorgeous Brianna! missed you to ❤❤❤❤❤
What do you use to edit your videos?❤️
Brianna .. can you tell me about your lash appointment?
Which stroller do you use ?:)
12 weeks??? We have 12 MONTHS off in Canada!? How is that humane :o
Brianna! Quick question!! Did your heartburn go away after you gave birth? I am 35w and my heartburn is terrible.. it's to the point where I don't think it will ever go away! Lol
Chloe Harmon Yablinsky Yes girl heartburn leaves the moment you give birth. At least for me it did. I had nasty heartburn while in labor and it sucked.
Natalie Romero good to know!!
Loved the video! Great tips! Video suggestions: sleep training, potty training 🙏🙏🙏
What's her regular job????
12 weeks???? I get 6!!!!! And NO PAY!
Brianna K I need a work from home job!
Great tips!! 👍👍😊❤️
Great video! I loved it. Could you do a video about post partum exercise? Best wishes to you on your next five weeks at home :)
How is it hard to not go to work? I love not going to work.
pffftt must be nice to get all that time off. I have to work up to my due date then go back to work in 4 weeks cause my maternity leave is unpaid and minimum wage won't cover the cost of living...
MimiUrameshi that sucks, America’s health and mother care systems are so backwards compared to the rest of the world.
