I just learned about blending dates in almond milk and cinnamon to use as creamer in coffee!
I will try this with regular cow milk
This sounds amazing!
Yes, this sounds delicious! Gonna try in the morning! TY for sharing!
I really believe in dates 🥹 As it is mentioned in Quran that God told Mary when she is in labour with Jesus to shake the palms and eat dates to ease her pain it always makes me teary when I read it 🥹 “And shake the trunk of this palm tree towards you, it will drop fresh, ripe dates upon you. So eat and drink, and put your heart at ease. But if you see any of the people, say, ‘I have vowed silence1 to the Most Compassionate, so I am not talking to anyone today.’” Surah Maryam 25-26.
Thank you for all the beautiful tips you share with us I really enjoy your videos always 🧡
سبحان الله وبحمده very true!!!
She birthed the Son of God, hashem, the One God in the flesh. To lay His earthly vessel down unto death, for the sin of the world. The apostles who walked with him for three years testify to WHO Jesus really was. The quran came hundreds of years later. Seek God for truth and He will reveal Himself to you.
Subhan Allah

Alhamdulillah 💕🥹
Im having my 5th child i never used any of the fancy products ! I ate healthy , am and was always active , always and ate dates and nut through out and during last week did labour speed up exercises! So to open up cervix ud have to be very active through out and to make it easier the last 2 weeks just exercise, drink , squats, birth ball do it all !
I teach ESL to Chinese students, and one of my student families gave me a huge container of dates because they're "good for pregnant ladies." I had never heard of that before, but I'm so thankful for their generosity, because I love dates and now I'm learning about their benefits. Honestly, learning about Chinese prenatal and postpartum medicine is really fascinating to me and it makes a lot of sense. It's also neat to see that some traditional methods are being upheld by modern research findings.
I literally do every single one of these as well!! Pregnant with my double rainbow. And my first birth was a fast smooth 4 hour home birth and I did everything in that pregnancy as well 👏🏼👏🏼
This was soo informative for me as a first time mom who wants to do it all natural! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 thank you soo much!❤
Keeping active in a gentle way like walking, yoga and stretches are great for the third trimester 😃
Becca!!! This is our 3rd time being pregnant together 😂🩷🩷 I’m 35 weeks now! So right behind you!
Me too
This is so helpful! Some of these I haven’t done so totally adding them to my list for this pregnancy. Thank u!!
My midwife has me drinking a quart of NORA tea + rosehips everyday for my health, baby’s health, uterin strength, and reduced risk of postpartum hemorrhage! I make a big batch of it for the fridge and then I can add lemon or honey or whatever I want later. ❤
When do you start drinking this and how much a day? 😊
@@Esperanza..I would say start 36 weeks! And then just drink a quart a day
Wish I would have known these things back in the day, because hard labor is agony.
Best of luck!!
Thank you so much I honestly had such PTSD and major anxiety from my first baby
Loved this video!
The Mama Natural Book came out in 2018 and it was so helpful! Highly recommend it to Mamas.
I think this is the most informational video for pre-birth. Thank you. ❤
Love this! The third trimester was my favorite too 😊
Great preparation video. Thank you so much for this video.
As a first time mom this is alot of information and is so helpful thank you🙏 im on time to do this im on 15 weeks so i will buy these products ❤
I just love listening to you!
So glad I came accross this, I did some research after watching and was really shocked to find out that raspberry lt is actually supposed to be started early…. So Thanks ! I’m 22 weeks so I’ll start now !
Your hairstyle is amazing!!!
So helpful, thank you
can you please do a video what essential oils you diffused and/or used for massage during labor? Did you spray clara derm on perineum before pushing? trying to figure out what to pack in my hospital bag
Love this video, great tips, Becca! These resonated with me because I do most of these preparations as well! I loved the reminder to be calm and confident during labor, and I really appreciate that you said you’re looking forward to labor. 💖 I’m overdue with baby #9 and I’m needing a boost in confidence that I can yet again do this! My only medicated birth (epidural) was my first, but all subsequent births have been unmedicated and very positive experiences (including twins). Prayers for your last few weeks and for a wonderful and smooth delivery ☺️💗
Hi! Thanks for these tips! So super helpful as a FTM! When did you start using the gentle birth drops?
In my country dates with sour cream is a national appetizer . If you like it with mascarpone you will definitly love it. The sourness of the cream mixed with the sweetness of the date. Divine!
Thank you for the idea. I'm going to eat dates with Greek Yogurt 😅
Great information for us how we prepare our body for labour
I'm so glad to meet you I am 37 weeks today and I go to my doctor's appointment tomorrow morning to see when I'm going to have the baby my due date is March 27th but they'll be taking him early so I'm trying to find tips and ways to bring pregnancy on so they do not have to induce me I am an hour away from my doctor so I'm trying to learn as much as the pelvic pain is so painful this is my third baby I have a 28 year old a 19 year old and now this new bundle of
How did it go? Hopefully you and little one are doing great! ❤
I really love love love this video! We can tell that you're passionate about this and it's SO helpful! I have to give a try to spinning babies now, I'm due in April 😅
Sending ❤for a fourth wonderful, peaceful birth! Can’t wait to meet who is in there. 😊

Amazing video!!
I am expecting my 4th daughter right now aswell. With my last two kids i was scheduled to be induced. I would really like to have it done the way my first born was, and at around 38 weeks
When in the 2nd trimester did you start with the red raspberry leaf tea?
11:29 I used to be able to walk no problem when I was around the end of my 2nd trimester and beginning of my 3rd one, but as I get through it baby’s head is really low in my pelvis it just feels like I’m walking with a bowling ball in my pelvis, it’s extremely uncomfortable and sometimes painful… 😅
What is the coconut oil spray? I don't see it linked.
@Becca Bristow can you tell me where else I can order this? I tried ordering on the link you left down below, but since I'm in Canada it asks me to go to the Canadian retailer which is Herbal Concepts, but there formula is a bit different and it contains red raspberry leaf which I was hoping it wouldn't have. Any other suggestions on where to get this exact formula?
Eat Medjoul Dates! Very tasty! The best with nutbutters!❤
Do you think the gentle birth drops helped? I’m so close to giving birth, any day now. How was your birth experience?
Hey thank you so much for this video I am currently 36 weeks. Does anyone know where I can get this gentle birth tincture here in the uk ?? Good luck to everyone
Hey I don't see the link for that spray?
Where can I get/order from the birth formula in the UK?
Thank you 🇺🇲
Hi Becca. I heard you say that for the smaller dates you eat 6 but for the larger ones, how many do you eat?
3
When do you start the tincture?
Do you still take your prenatal vitamins?
Dates, yummy. I can eat a whole bag of them in a day.
Is there a reason to not start the red raspberry tea in the first trimester?
People say it triggers labor. It didn't for me. I drank a few cups a week 1st Tri. Most* miscarriages are due to genetic abnormalities, but people look for things to blame
Have you ever noticed the tea giving more Braxton hicks? I had to stop because mine were getting so frequent and intense and was told I already had a strong uterus so I didn’t need it … idk lol
This is currently happening to me!
My midwife advised me to wait till 35 weeks to start the red raspberry tea, because of this.
I am 30 weeks pregnant and I just started Red Raspberry Tea and the fetus was flipping out no pun intented... I was up all night literally because of all the movements...
No need for any tea ladies until last 2 weeks if u think so ! Ud better grow that baby till 38 39 weeks and then start , teas make our body dehydrated and then ud need more water and natural contractions are much better then any induced ones . The body knows how to do it all ! We just have to follow thru
It's supposed to do that. Raspberry tea never causes true labor.
Quick question. Do you plan on this being your last baby, or do you and your husband want another?
I think she's said she feels like her family will be complete after this one but she doesn't know for sure.
@@soemmasays, thank you kindly for the reply.
@@gamingisabellajones6880 You're welcome! 😊
You have the most beautiful hair.
Plz help me
You mean unmedical Brith with epidural?
Without medication meaning no epidural too I believe
Unmediated = no epidural
Was your baby flipped when you did all this??
Later when you give birth, record it from contractions until the baby is born
Hi mama. Be careful with essential oils. There’s some research coming out about how they are toxic
You look so beautiful. Could you do a pre-pregnancy clothes try on?
None of these are scientifically proven lol. Anecdotal “evidence “ isn’t actual evidence 🤦🏼♀️
First top. coffee is not healthy during pregnancy
Women all around the world have been drinking coffee during their pregnancies for centuries. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends that pregnant women limit their caffeine intake to 300 milligrams per day. This is equivalent to about 2 to 3 cups of coffee per day, depending on the strength of the coffee. But everyone is different so talk to your doctor.
Coffee and other forms of caffeine, especially when the mom’s adrenals are drained, actually pull from the baby’s adrenal stores. This can lead to life long issues. If you’re tired, rest in the way you can. Take an adrenal complex that is safe for pregnancy, take beef liver in whatever form you can handle or take methylated B vitamins- all of these are healthy forms of energy that won’t have a negative impact on your baby’s health. You do you, but just because it’s been done before doesn’t always mean you should keep doing it, do your research and listen to your body ❤
@@3l3phantzthe baby cannot break down the caffeine, I wouldn‘t recommend drinking it either
"Can" being the operative word in your comment.@@WholeFamilyCrunch
