This is so so random but as a fellow Canadian, it is so comforting in a way to see you use familiar brands that I buy and use, especially when most creators are American with unfamiliar brands !!
Sometimes if I really want something from the US, I’ll drive across the border 😅 But I totally understand this and agree!! When I find Canadian content creators I like I always get so excited hahaha
My husband and I tried for 2 years until I got pregnant with my son. I had 5 miscarriages, the 2nd one being a missed miscarriage. No symptoms of miscarriage, at our 12 week scan we learned that baby stopped growing at 7 weeks and my body didn’t realize. After 5 miscarriages i started taking progesterone and baby aspirin and now we have a beautiful little boy that is turning 1 in 2 weeks! When he was 5 months old, i found out i was pregnant again, just to have another miscarriage. We have been trying ever since with no luck. Really happy it worked out for you! And i relate to soooo much from this video. Thanks for talking about it!
NGL a little while back when the basement reno ramped back up i was thinking "ooooh i wonder why we suddenly need the basement done???" 👀 lol im so excited for you guys
Currently 23 weeks pregnant with my second after a miscarriage. Everything you just said happened to me as well. I had spotting up to 17 weeks and even passed a small clot. It was so scary and, even though at every ultrasound baby was perfectly healthy, I had so much anxiety every single day. Such a different experience from my first pregnancy. I also had a sch and was put on progesterone but it didn’t stop the bleeding. Everything is going perfectly well with baby though and I’m just so grateful. Thank you for sharing your story and wishing you the best.
Thank you for sharing your story. My first pregnancy resulted in miscarriage and now that I am pregnant again, I can 100% relate to all that you’re feeling. Sending you all the love and hugs. I find comfort in your video and knowing I’m not alone. ❤
I relate to this video so much right now. 10 weeks pregnant after 3 back to back losses and the anxiety is REAL. Having an easy pregnancy so far and it worries me every single day. Barely any nausea and I'm always thinking I'd rather be throwing up every day for reassurance. Pregnancy after loss and infertility is next level...
Alex you went through the same as me with the spotting. Mine was actually worse because I did pass clots, I had red blood and I spotted for a month. Here in my country the ob takes you in as soon as a positive test and mine scheduled an ultrasound for me as soon as I had the first bleeding. My case was the gestational sac that was not as well implanted and it was a bet: if it got worse I would miscarry BUT it healed and my sweet little girl is here with me today. She is 6 months now. When I found out about this pregnancy I had just miscarried the previous month so I was terrified it would happen again. I told almost no one that I was pregnant until about 16 weeks. On the internet I posted only when I was already 32 weeks lol. In the beginning, just like you, I did not want to be excited, I was terrified of being excited. You got this! I’m so glad you’re feeling better now and that you’re sharing this journey with us. I’ve been rooting for you all this time and I’m really happy for you!
This is my life story since last Nov to Jan. I have spent my first Day of this year in ER because of bleeding at 4 months pregnant. Same subchorionic Hemorrhage Situation. ❤️ but now 21weeks I feel better now *fingers crossed*
I had hyperemesis gravidarum in my first trimester and it was actual hell. I ended up in the ER over Christmas. Thankfully it went away in my second! So excited for you!! It’s been a long road
Thank u for sharing your story, Alex ❤. It means a lot for other girls who are planning to embark on this beautiful journey and it is essential to be informed that it could be not as smooth as one hoped 🙏
I had 4 MC before I was able to have a successful pregnancy (she’s now 8months) and I checked when I wiped even up until the morning of my c-section!! That anxiety never left me and if we are lucky to have another I hope it’s not as bad so I can fully enjoy being pregnant but going through infertility is such a wild ride and the anxiety is unmatched!! I know exactly how you felt and I’m sorry you had all this struggle during this pregnancy!
It's such BS they don't see you until 10 weeks there! Where I live (Hungary) you can book an early appointment if it's a private practice. I took a progesterone bloodtest at 4,5 weeks and found out it's low, so we were able to save the pregnancy with my OB through oral meds right away...
It wasn’t implantation bleeding because you already got pregnant so it had already implanted few days prior. Spotting tends to happen right around time the period is supposed to start because of hormonal shifts. Happened with all 3 of my pregnancies. Some women literally bleed RED like a full on period from a SCH, and the baby is still ok, which is crazy, I would die
I spotted in my 5th month of my pregnancy a brown discharge with cramps, put in my mind that my first pregnancy ended up with premature delivery at 30 weeks witch caused cerebral palsy to my 3 years old daughter who doesn’t walk or talk yet due to the sudden premature birth. So imagine my anxiety and panic of having another premature birth. So I’m taking 3 different kinds of pregnancy Stabilizers, one by mouth, one I take it through my rectum, and the last one is painful projest injection that I take it in the ER 3 times a week my whole pregnancy. So I’m so tariffed of having another disabled child 😢 I’m now 25 weeks pregnant please pray for me ❤
Watching this has me feeling so much better about my pregnancy. I am also around 5 months, I had some bleeding that I didn’t have with my first. And my nausea has been so much worse. Although I’m in my second trimester it still hasn’t fully settled down yet, I’m hoping soon I can get relief
I had a similar experience with the spotting/bleeding! I bled from 4 weeks to 10weeks3days, i had cramps and red blood on & off. No one could tell me what it was from. Ended up choosing to take progesterone from 6 weeks pregnant and it was so worth it. Got my precious rainbow baby boy 🥹
Congrats Alex!!! & your pregnancy symptoms are exactly what I had - the all day nausea and food aversions... and same was so grateful for it knowing my baby was healthy haha! Being a woman is something else!!
I'm not sure why, I was also extremely anxious my second pregnancy. I had 0 trouble conceiving and had next to no complications. I think it's because you have a greater understandkng of what's at steak if something happens. Just my personal theory lol You're doing great Mama ❤️ So incredibly happy for you and your family!
I had a subchorionic hematoma in my first trimester too and the weekly ultrasounds to check on it were the only thing keeping my anxiety down. I had a missed miscarriage (found out at 12 weeks) 2 years ago and getting pregnant this time was so scary. Baby girl is doing great at 23 weeks now ❤️
First of all congratulations Alex, Dan and Arkham! I am beyond excited for you our little family! Also pregnant so what a wonderful feeling it is going through it with my favourite UA-camr. My main question that I’ve been thinking about would be if you were going to try for a Vback? That is of course if baby is in a good position etc? ❤
Honestly, your first trimester pregnancy journey sounds so similar to mine (even how you found out) and we would’ve got positives within just a few days of each other! I also spotted from week 6 to about week 9. It’s so disheartening, stressful, and scary. Thankfully though, baby is happy and healthy 🥰
Our first trimester is the exact same! I had a subcorionic hematoma and had to go to the hospital because I was so worried. Such bad nausea all day and it got so bad at night. I also couldn't handle the small of my husband's breath & any food being cooked. I was in survival mode. The longest month of my life. But baby is doing wonderful! Congrats!!!! ❤️
Hi darling! I spotted during all the first thrimester with both my babie! I was terrified but it seems that all my pregnancies start this way 🤷🏻♀️ For both, I stopped spotting at 12-13 weeks and everything was fine! I wish you all the best ❤
Hi from Ottawa! Usually a silent viewer but had to comment and first off congratulate you on your pregnancy!! :) and to say that I can relate so much. I had an uncomplicated first pregnancy with my son and was so oblivious to everything. Then ended up having a missed miscarriage which was beyond devastating. Once I got pregnant again, I was already so anxious and then ended up having a hemorrhage during my first trimester which turned out to be a subchorionic hematoma and was put on modified bed rest. I was paranoid about everything and googling like crazy, but it resolved halfway through my pregnancy and I'm now holding my 6 month old son 💙 all the stress and tough times were so worth it in the end because I wouldn't have this little guy that I love so much!!
I am so thankful that you and the baby are ok! The level of anxiety that must’ve given you sounds awful, especially with all the health issues your dad was going through as well! 😵💫 MC seems all too common rn and any sign of blood can immediately worrying. I wanted to share my experience as well just in case anyone else out there had a similar experience. I bled for my entire 1st tri as if I was on my period and everything with my baby was completely healthy and normal. Idk why and prob never will, but I’ve also had friends and family do the same in their pregnancies and still have healthy babies. My cousin bled her ENTIRE pregnancy and the amount of anxiety she went through was just exhausting. It’s always anxiety inducing, and should always be checked out and looked into more, but I thought I’d share to give peace of mind to any one who made need it. 🥰
I had the same spotting situation almost to a t!! i went to the ER & ended up having a hematoma behind the placenta (and traveling was triggering the spotting). it was TERRIFYING but then i felt so silly being so worried. i’m 30 weeks now ❤ congratulations to you!
Ok I am also pregnant with my second (I think about as far along as you are) and struggled with spotting/bleeding in my first trimester too - they found a small hematoma. I never had any sort of spotting when I was pregnant with my son. It was so scary (and really lonely because we weren’t telling many people yet). Had multiple ultrasounds and was always so convinced there wouldn’t be a heartbeat but I’m over halfway through and baby girl is doing great! Was also nauseous 24/7 and couldn’t really gain any weight during the first trimester. Also a totally different experience from my first pregnancy… where I felt completely normal. Of course this happened when I had a toddler running around the house 🙄
I’m so so happy for you 🥹 I had an early miscarriage before I got pregnant with my son, then spotted with him around 6 weeks, I totally understand how it feels to not let yourself get excited and check every time you use the bathroom. Look at you casually talking about how you were vomiting after having emetophobia (don’t know if you still feel over that since that time you got sick), regardless you’re so brave! ❤
i'm currently pregnant and also had an SCH in the first trimester, the blood is so unsettling! Baby is doing great at 18 weeks :) haven't had any bleeding since 10 weeks
Spotting in pregnancy is so scary and not something people often talk about! I had spotting in my first pregnancy which was a missed miscarriage. When I got pregnant the second time and had spotting again it was so stressful! Now holding my 6 month old ❤
It’s so much better to do the line tests at the beginning because you can actually see the line progression. the digital test is not only more expensive, but also kinda useless when it comes to more information
@@ILovesTheOldMusic only if there was a trigger taken, otherwise there should be no reason for a false positive. At least not with the reputable brands like easy@home and pregmate
We started TTC at the same time. I finally fell pregnant and had a chemical miscarriage, fell pregnant the following month and had another miscarriage. Fell pregnant again, the following month and took progesterone my entire pregnancy. Now I have a 4 month old. The anxiety the entire pregnancy was so hard 😩
I 100% felt like it was a girl too because of how different the pregnancy was from Arkie’s! Then my mom told me she had two completely different pregnancies and both girls. And my friend had two different and both boys. So then I switched my mind lol
Congrats again, and thanks for keeping it real ❤ Im lying in bed, 8 weeks pregnant and just beyond fatigued. And I'm a fellow canadian here, so also waiting for that first 12w scan so I can have confirmation this is real. Could you do a video on baby must haves or stuff that arent using this time? Also, any clothing recommendations for the bump (maternity or non)?
Sending so much love!!! Gosh the first trimester is no joke 🥲 I have a bunch of baby must haves and postpartum stuff on my Amazon store front and as for maternity, I’ll def include this in a video!
as someone with severe emetophobia, how do you cope with knowing the odds of getting sick are highly likely? i convinced myself at a young age I could never get pregnant because of my phobia. but my husband and I have been talking more of it lately but I don't know how to handle 9 months of potential health issues and sickness? Would love to know from you or anyone with health anxiety + emetophobia who have some insight in this for any tips and advice
I was pregnant two times. First successful and the second unfortunately ended in a mc. I bleeed with both. With my successful one I bleed (sometimes heavily) through the first trimester. Doctor was unable to tell me why this happens to me. 🤷🏻♀️
What’s been your favourite stage of life with Arkie? It seems like the age he is now is so cute and fun. He can communicate well and understands things!
Happy that you feel better now. But I'm from a third world country and even we have better health care. We can have anything any time we want. We can see our ob anytime we want. And seriously a simple ultrasound would cost something around 6,7 dollars(but that's due to having horrible inflammation and shitty economy) in our own currency and salary it's a little high or maybe reasonable now that i think about it.
I got pregnant on iud 2 weeks before you announced yours and miscarried but I’m not sure I was ready for a second baby but when I saw you announced yours I think the loss kind of hit. But I’m so happy you and one of the other mom tubers I watch are both pregnant 🫶🏻🥰
Alex! Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Never been happier for strangers 🥲❤ (but doesn’t feel like it cause I have been watching for years haha). I hope your second trimester is going much better!
Alex! I went through 2 miscarriages and then on my third pregnancy I dealt with a subchronic hematoma for the first 2ish months so I totally understand the anxiety. It was SO hard! Luckily mine cleared up as well and gave us my first perfect boy! 🤍 sending good vibes for the rest of your pregnancy and a healthy babe!

Might be suprised that baby dog is a baby human. Makes me wonder whether he thinks you gave birth to the dogs too. That is adorable😍❤😂

Oh my God whaaat? 😂 can’t wait to be pregnant Lol
Hahahaha my sense of smell was CRAZY too. Like I literally would rather have any other sense more enhanced 😂

Happy that you feel better now. But I'm from a third world country and even we have better health care. We can have anything any time we want. We can see our ob anytime we want.

I also had spotting my whole first trimester with my first baby and everything was good. Nothing this time though so crazy.
I got pregnant on iud 2 weeks before you announced yours and miscarried but I’m not sure I was ready for a second baby but when I saw you announced yours I think the loss kind of hit. But I’m so happy you and one of the other mom tubers I watch are both pregnant 🫶🏻🥰
I tried to buy the happy Viking but it doesn’t ship to Canada :(
I use shippsy! Anytime I want something that doesn’t ship to Canada I go through that website. Been a lifesaver haha
I'm so happy for you Alex! I've been watching you guys and Tess since 2017 and I love seeing you thrive
Thank you love!
I really think most of the symptoms you had and the spotting was because of stress
I had spotting my whole pregnancy and everything was normal. Definitely was annoying tho! I did IVF tho
You talking about your husband’s breath!! Omg Alex!! 🤣😂
I’m guessing it’s a girl! I just found out I’m having a baby girl and my symptoms are different compared to my boys❤
I could smell what my husband ate for lunch in his hair when he got home from work…being pregnant is insane
Congratulations! FYI ultrasound is non invasive so use as much as you need x
A girlie 🤭💖✨
I’m due end of may 2024
Ugh I can't help feeling that it's a girl 🌸
I think you’re having a girl 🩷

I honestly feel like we’re all family ❤️
Alex! I went through 2 miscarriages and then on my third pregnancy I dealt with a subchronic hematoma for the first 2ish months so I totally understand the anxiety. It was SO hard! Luckily mine cleared up as well and gave us my first perfect boy! 🤍 sending good vibes for the rest of your pregnancy and a healthy babe!
I could smell what my husband ate for lunch in his hair when he got home from work…being pregnant is insane
Omg this is so relatable lmao
