Sierra Unfiltered is BACK! chatting mom guilt, dad stereotypes, & birth story
• Sierra Unfiltered is B... - Розваги
Skylar if you’re reading this, we are so happy to know you’re doing well!! Sending you so much love and happiness
Thank you so much for acknowledging your privilege as a mother. I think it is so easy for people to mom shame when they don't realize how hard motherhood can be when you don't have a lot of the "help" that is really a necessity, such as time, finances, family, a hands on dad, etc. So thank you for that 💕.
When Steve was talking about the stuff targeted to “mommy’s” I was like yes! I am a manager at a swim school and we do classes for babies as young as 4 months and my team always referred it to a mommy and me class but watching the classes over time I realize it’s mostly dad’s and grandparents going in the water with the baby. So I told my team we need to stop saying mommy and me and be more inclusive because you don’t want to detour someone because they don’t feel included.
That awesome! My husband is so involved but I could see him looking for swim classes online (something we will be doing very soon with our 5 month old and somthing he has expressed being excited about before i even got pregnant) and seeing "mommy" in the description and be discouraged or not want to go assuming he will be the only dad and would be looked at funny.
Thank you and Stephen for acknowledging the literal bar on the ground that dad's have. I birthed an 8lb 6oz baby with zero medication (first baby) and almost died and the nurses fawned over my husband because he was holding the baby, taking care of me and because he laid the baby on the scale to be weighed. 😳 The nurse said in her 6 years there, a dad had never put their own baby on the scale. I know it made my husband feel good, but I'm like come onnn 😳😬 we gotta do better. Babies aren't made alone. It was really tough to be in a hospital where I was treated like ok, good job women literally do this everyday but my husband was treated like a king. 🙄
When Steven said it felt like he would get a high-five for changing a diaper it reminded me of this : With my first son, my grandmother was flabbergasted to see my husband changing diapers. Apparently although my grandmother had 4 children with her husband he had never changed a single diaper. My husband got a lot of praise about that diaper change she witnessed. It was very comical but also irritating to see how low the expectations for dads can be.
I agree my husbands grandmother had 3 kids and we were at their house one day and my husband changed 4 diapers and she made the comment that my husband changed more diapers while we were there than her husband did for all of their kids. We were also at the mall one day and I wanted to go into a store so my husband sat on the bench and fed our baby. He had so many women stop and told him what a good job he was doing but when I did the same thing no one even gave me a second look. The bar is really on the ground.
@@emogrl1000 The bar is on the ground 😂 That’s hilarious.
It's crazy to realize it's been almost 2 years!! Like it seems like it's been forever but then again it don't if that makes sense! And it is great to hear that Skylar is doing good still!! Please though if she ever becomes ok with us following her again let us know because I miss keeping up with her little family!
“Sierra, do you want to come bless the fish?” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh I love you two. So glad the podcast is back. ❤️
The best highlight of the podcast 🤣🤣🤣
I'm so stoked the podcast is back! I would love to see a similar podcast with your mom talking about the similarities and differences between the way she chose to parent and the way y'all choose to parent and how parenting recommendations and guidelines have changed over time.
Oh I love this!!!
Sierra I would LOVE to see your mum as guest on the podcast if she felt comfortable with it. I feel like she has such a calming and wise presence and it would be awesome to hear what she has to say!
Stephen seems so natural in the podcast setting. His voice is great for podcasts and he seems so comfortable. He should be on a lot going forward!
I tell my husband to take our daughter out on “dates” he enjoys being a dad and he’s such a good daddy! Btw she’s 2 and my son is now almost 6 months. Love my life as a mom and yes somedays are rough.
anyone else cry when Sierra said 'I'm a Mom, but that's not all that I am' 😭❤
thank you for allowing grace to make her own decisions with food when she’s older. that’s not a choice I’ve gotten and it just really means a lot. as for what age is old enough? you’ll know when you know! one of my friends decided to go vegetarian when she was 5 and she’s still sticking with it 13 years later. never tell grace she’s “too young” to be making these kinds of decisions :)
Wow I didn't think I was going to get this emotional. My daughter is turning 9 on Monday and I remember the day of her birth like it was yesterday, the fact that I almost lost my life really shakes me. Thank you for sharing!
Yay so glad this is back! Would love to have Kenzie back as a guest too. 🥰
Yes! We will always love and miss skyler but loving all the bff content on the blog recently. We need a Kenzie episode
I am due in May, My husband also gets 13 weeks of paternity leave, and I don’t even get a single day of maternity leave. My workplace defends themselves saying oh we are a small company it’s very rare if ever that a small company gives maternity leave. Truly horrible !!
I had my babies a good while ago, but I think my company was the same. I saved up sick leave, vacation time and took some time off unpaid as well, but no formal maternity leave. Just not right.
I’m a mother baby postpartum nurse, no kids of my own. But I just wanna say, I really love your perspectives on parenting, being ready to become a parent, mom guilt/shaming, and I really loved hearing Stephen’s perspective on it all too. Also so happy the podcast is back!
Omg I’m so pregnant lol crying about your birth story and can’t wait to welcome my little one.
I love how he calls himself Steve all the time but is always surprised that we are starting to refer to him as Steve as well 😂💖
Also on the involved dad thing its so true the stereotype that is there. My husband even made a comment when we were at urgent care they only addressed me, mom, never asked my husband directly any questions and never looked his way once a question was asked even though he was just as involved in answering them all even at daycare the teachers say I'm so lucky to have a dad to help out with drop off (he drops out son off and I pick him up). He said it doaent bother him at all but definitely something he notices as well when people talk to him about things vs me they speak to him differently and as if they are dumbing it down. Even though he is a very involved dad and always has been! Even in the very beginning with breastfeeding he offered and willingly got up every feeding to go change him and bring him to me for our feeds and if it was a particularly long feed he would take over putting him back down. We split the work 50/50 and people are always so amazed by that he even get comment and 2nd looks when he's at the grocery store by himself. Like "where's mommy?!"
So glad you're back! And I really needed this today, thank you!
Absolutely LOVED this relaunch of your podcast and can’t wait to see what else is to come !! 🥰
I'm sooooo freaking glad you are back and can't wait to see where you go on the podcast
Thank you for sharing all of this with us. So glad to have you and the podcast back. Wishing your family all the best. ❤️✨
So glad the vlog is back!!! This one was the perfect length for my drive home from work today!! 💕
I’m so excited for this! Welcome back💕💕💕
so excited for the podcast to be back!! i've been bingeing it ever since sierra announced her pregnancy. this is what is getting me through today.
I'm glad you're back! I thoroughly enjoyed this episode of Sierra Unfiltered. I was so happy when I saw this in my notifications.
My brother is a very involved dad and always have been. I love when dads step up and parent!! Historically the bars for dads were set so low, but it’s awesome seeing a new generation come through and change that!!
I binged this after you guys went on hiatus. I was so bummed because I love this podcast. So happy it's back. I have a 2yr old and 5 month old. Mom guilt is sooo real.
I’m so so happy the podcast is back!! I’ve truly missed listening every week and I’m excited for you guys
That was great. I have missed them. Wonderful convo and a refreshing break on this crazy ride we call the internet. :)
Sierra Unfiltered is back! You don't know how much I needed this today. I just needed one thing to make me smile even for a second. Great episode ❤️
I absolutely love both of your thoughtful perspectives on all of this! I so appreciate people like you two and Ethan and Hila from H3, who want to share their children with their audience because they know we are curious and care, but ultimately make the safest and best decision for their children. I really think you’re doing a great job.
This was such a nice listen! So happy to have a new episode of the podcast!!
SO EXCITED this is back!! excited to see where the podcast goes!! 🤗🤗 Can't believe its been almost 2 years! feels like it never stopped!
THIS MADE MY DAY TO SEE UNFILTERED BACK I MISSED IT SO SO MUCH !
So glad the podcast is back! I didn’t know it was a thing until after it ended so I’m so glad there’s new episodes
Omg I'd love to see a pod episode with your and your dad. I loved your vlogs of you going with your dad on business trips abroad, those were comfort videos for me since my dad lives across the country and I miss him dearly so those videos were kind of like living through you! ❤️❤️❤️
Woop woop, what a surprise today when i realised there was an episode. It was amazing. Thank you guys so much.
Only criticism is that the sound was so low. Had to turn the volume right up and then when ads came on it was mega loud. Loved the show though so no biggy xx
I didn’t know you used to have a podcast, but now that you’ve brought it back I’m glad! Thanks for sharing your perspective and life stories :)
I'm a first time 26 year old mom too my daughter was born a few days after Grace! So nice to hear that what I experience that isn't always butterfly and rainbow filled days with a baby is real life just like you! Thank you for being real and sharing your parenting journey 🙏 ❤
Haven’t listened yet, but this podcast got me through some lonely times at the beginning of the pandemic and quarantine! Glad to see it back!
So excited that the podcast is back!! We need an episode (or many ;) ) with you and Carrie!!!
This brings me soooo much joy!!! So happy the pod is back!
I have a 5 month old baby, and I have always turned to your vlogs to get your perspective on motherhood. I feel like you do great at balancing what can be shared and not. You both are amazing parents! Ahhh I would love for you and Steve to keep these conversations going because they are SO GOOD!!! Love this first podcast. Hope your continue with more, I’m already obsessed!!!
I have to literally tell myself daily multiple times a day that, “this is what’s best for my children.” I guilt trip myself all the time. It is so true about the spending me time cuz it helps mental health and you to be better for your spouse and child.
Thank you for addressing the highlight reel of Grace. I'm 4 months in with my colic baby and watching you guys with Grace being so happy all the time is sometimes tough.
So so happy your podcast is back!😊💕 I love watching your vlogs and channels and so happy for you!
I've been re-watching every old episode every single day! I think I've watched each one at least 20 times! haha...so happy the podcast is back love u guys
It's really nice how you both respect each other's opinions as parents. You are doing an awesome job raising Grace!
Omg I have been waiting for this podcast to return for so long
Can't wait to watch it
I am SOOO happy this is back!! I can’t believe it was almost 2 years of not having the podcast. I missed this so much!! 💗
You are the model of parenthood that I aspire to be one day when I become a parent. How you approach life, and learning, and growth is so wholesome and earnest that it makes me feel better about life ♥️♥️♥️
Yess!! Never really was much of a podcast listener and this was my 'gateway' one. I understood why but felt like something was missing when this ended. So glad it's back!!
Thank you so much for this video. My sister in law just had a c section and this really helped to see it from her perspective! So glad to see the pod is back!
I’m listening on Spotify while doing chores but I wanted to come here and say OH MY FREAKING GOD I MISSED THIS!!!!!! I FINALLY HAVE ANOTHER PODCAST TO LISTEN TO NOW I HAVE 2 YAY!!! SHES BACK BAYBEEEEEE!!
MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED!!! CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE!
Oh my gosh!!! I couldn’t be more excited!!! I was just thinking about how I wished unfiltered would come back!!!
I’m so happy the podcast is back!!! This was my favourite podcast, I was so sad when it ended! Loved the episode and can’t wait to hear more in the future🤗
Steven talking about the birthing process was so emotional! Got me all teary eyed. I love the love you have for each other. 💕
I’ve listened to each episode about 10 times each, and can’t wait for this new season!
Same, I probably have most of the episodes memorized by this point and I got to the point where I couldn’t really watch them anymore because it had been so many times so I’m glad to have new episodes to listen to
Sierra I love this podcast, I have played it for 2 nights in a row and used it for sleeping, and tonight will be my third night. But in a good way! I love having long talked videos of people I feel familiar (since I watch all your blogs), feels like a safe space, a hug of comfort. Just wanted to share that, keep making these videos
Love love love!! 😍🙌🥰 So happy the pod is back!
Wow! I loved hearing the experience from a dads point of view in this age.
I'm so happy the podcast is back. I've been trying to go on walks more to move my body but just walking is a little boring to me so this makes me excited for my daily walk!🥰
My jaw just DROPPED when I opened YT. You’re back!!! 💕
OMG YESSSSS WHAT!!! I’m so excited for the return!!
My jaw dropped from excitement AHHH I've missed it so much!! ♡♡
SO HAPPY to have you back on the POD!🥰🥰 no big production needed girl!💓
Love this video! This convo is needed. Sometimes just knowing your not alone feels good. 😌 Also appreciated the dad perspective because it isn't as vocalized. Thank you guys love you guys😊❤
The podcast is back!! I'm so excited to listen :)
Thank you so much for acknowledging the privilege of family nearby and paternity time. As someone who lives 5,000 miles from family, and a husband who works a not-flexible job, parenthood has been much tougher for me than I was expecting.
I am glad you commented on your thoughts about sharing Grace on camera. I had noticed a lot of that stuff. That you showed her being cute and happy, but always in ways that were respectful. For example, presumably she is cute and happy when she's eating. But she's also probably super messy, and so you don't show us that, because it could be embarrassing to her going forward.
I am so impressed by the balance you strike, but also the help and advice you always want to share (I don't have a baby to feed, but your new passion for sharing recipes has been SO helpful)
Thanks Sierra (and Stephen)!
Please more parenting stuff! I love the way you all parent and your reasoning behind things! I'm starting solids with my 6 months old and wish you had content on that! 😭
It was great to hear Stephens experience of birth because I worry about how my own partner will cope in the same situation. So heartwarming to hear how you supported each other through those periods. Thanks for sharing ❤
Ohhhh my goodness! Thank you, thank you. I have missed the podcast ❤️
I've been waiting for this! So exciting!
So stoked!!
Omg Yayy! I'm So Glad The Podcast Is Back ❤💫
I’m so glad you’re doing the podcast again!!!
I really enjoyed this episode 👍👍👍 I really appreciate that you're sharing your perspective especially regarding parenting. It's really valuable ❤️
Yes! Yes! Yes! So happy the podcast is back🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sooo happy to have a new episode of the podcast ❤️
I have three kids 7 and under all boys. I needed to hear some of these things. Thank you. ❤️
So interesting to hear about your perspective on the stereotypes around dads! I just wanted to add that I didn’t have a c-section but instead had an unplanned home birth. I couldn’t walk for 2 weeks so my husband had to step into a similar role as Stephen in those early days. I think it really shaped our parenting dynamic in the same way as it did for you! I feel as though sometimes the recovery from a non c-section (not sure if I can use the real word) delivery is seen as so much easier, and it really caused me to be hard on myself when I struggled with such a difficult recovery despite not having major abdominal surgery.
Sierra and Steve,
This is the best,I absolutely LOVE yall together.I really think y'all together,doing different topics would be my new favorite podcast!
Seriously,the chemistry between y'all is so great,I think it could be the best bc we get to know you both and honesty,I just love it.And when y'all have guest,still both be on plus the guest..Just my opinion
Love and Blessings
yes!!!!! so so so excited to listen to this later :)
Side note, I am 21 Mins in and I love the dynamic. I keep laughing. I have never been pregnant, but I love hearing your experience and perspective and I really love hearing Stephens experience as well. Love how this podcast is coming back and definitely following on Spotify.
I can’t even contain how excited I am for this!!
You’re doing a great job! I enjoy the vlogs and now I get to enjoy a podcast day what?!!
This is AMAZING!! Love you two together
Glad to see the podcast back! And glad to hear Skylar is doing well.
SO HAPPY THE PODCAST IS BACK!
I’ve missed the podcast so much, I’m so excited for it to be back even though I will miss Skylar being a part of it but I’m glad she’s doing well!
I am honestly so glad that you acknowledged the uninvolved dad stereotype. I have been a single mom since the beginning. The most involved that my son's dad was was in the very beginning because I had to have an unplanned c section. After that, it was all on me. We finally separated this past July, and it still took until November to start taking our son every other weekend. Now he gets all the praise for being such an involved dad and I get guilt tripped for going out. So I don't. I don't go out. I stay home by myself when I don't have my son. It's kind of to the point where I am very surprised when I see dad's that are actually willingly doing things with their kids.
And I'm very happy that the podcast is back ❤️😊
omg i'm so excited 😭😭😭♥️
So glad the podcast is back ❤️
OMG I literally checked this account the other day getting a little sad it was gone forever… YAYYY welcome back 🥰
