I love how you said “fed is best” because there are some “Karen’s” that want to add their 2 cents in when it’s not necessary. I breast feed, but for the first month I pumped then gave him the bottle because my nipples bled so bad. Whatever works for mom and baby honestly. People need to stop with their unsolicited advice.
When you first breast feed it hurts so bad !! Especially if the baby isn’t latching in right .. just ask for help and I ended up breastfeeding for 1 year
It’s crazy how cautious you have to be when you talk about your own personal experiences, on your own channel that you’ve worked so hard to build. You aren’t doing anything wrong. You should be able to speak about things the way you want to without people attacking you for it. We are the same age and I’ve watched you from the beginning you’re definitely my favorite UA-camr and it really hurts to see some of the comments people leave because I see such a great person.
She’s still breastfeeding. Just because she’s not feeding him directly from the breast, doesn’t mean you’re not breastfeeding anymore. He’s still getting your breast milk. It’s the same thing.
You said what so many moms are scared to say. You’re not selfish because you want help from other people, it really does take a village. You’re not a bad mom because you don’t LOVE breast feeding, you’re not neglectful if you want some alone time. I loved this and by the way I just found your channel and you are seriously one of the most gorgeous women I’ve ever seen
In ancient times, all the females in the village took care of the newborn baby. That is why they had so many babies because it wasn’t so taxing on the one mother taking care of the newborn.
I’m so glad Naz has this platform to educate people with no babies yet. People really don’t understand the real that comes with being a Mother but you’re definitely trying to educate younger people and trying to give them an actual look into the life of a mother cause it is SO much work and not glamorous as people think.💙
I love that you’re so open and clear on communication. However we don’t need to know all that girl! We don’t need an explanation! You have a REAL life and are a REAL person. You have a whole nugget now that requires a lot of your time! If you have to film videos in advance once a month and then schedule them that’s perfectly understandable!!!! STOP feeling the need to explain yourself and give disclaimers 🧡 we understand. And tbh like you said, we probably won’t even notice you’re taking a break if you preform videos 💙
If we have learnt anything from the current situation, it is the realization that everything around us is so temporary... Life is so fragile.. The material activities we were attached to, like going to a movie, dining at a favorite restaurant, shopping, socializing with friends, fun outings have become far-fetched now.. All this makes us realize the value of life, our time with our loved ones and the preciousness of the current moment! We should emerge out of this wiser, kinder, loving and being more in the moment! Make the best of every living moment! Spread love and kindness always! Touch as many hearts as possible with your kindness and love! That’s all that matters in this life!
Aw girl I wish people would mind their own business! Everyone's experience is so different and motherhood is already difficult enough it's so important do whats best for ur situation while considering both the child and the mother, ur a boss mama Naz!💞
Some people in these comments are so rude, if Naz didn’t say that she was taking a break and pre filming videos y’all wouldn’t have even know cause she’s been posting regularly. Imagine being a first time mom working 7 days a week also being quarantined. Don’t comment on the way a mother takes care of their children as long as their baby is happy and fed and the mom feels like they’re doing a job that’s all that matters. I’m not a mom but when I do become one I can’t even imagine being a mom on social media. You’re doing a great job Naz as a mom let alone a first time mom Von seems happy and healthy from all the photos and videos you choose to share. I’m grateful you’re sharing your life as a mom and all the pros and cons of being a mom. Keep doing what you’re doing. 🤍
I love that you’re even trying to prefilm for us. You could have just decided to take a break from posting completely. So thank you for that. No matter what, make von your first priority. Being a mommy is hard. thank you for choosing to include us so much in your motherhood journey ❤️
I think that's what she should have done honestly. Take those 6 weeks like everybody else. That's the beauty of being your own boss and making your own schedule. Tell people you're taking a break and why and then peace out. Just about all her subscribers would understand.
I literally admire so much how Naz always does what is best for her with so much confidence. Motherhood suits her so well she takes on everything with so much maturity 🙌🏽
I don’t have a child , but wow have I learned so much just by watching this video. I can’t wait to be a parent, thank you Naz for the information and he Von Von looks so cute 🥺 hes growing so quick.
The benefit of work like this is that you can shape your own schedule!! You guys have a new baby, of course take breaks as you need, we’ll still be here when you’re back ❤️
I needed this. I appreciate your mother talk. I’ve been so stressed out, feeling like I’m not doing enough for my two babies and I just needed that. Thank you
I just had to pause and comment on how important and refreshing what you said what about bottle feeding was. It's so nice to hear about how you were promoting mental health for mothers, being a working mother, sharing responsibilities (we often put the burden entirely on women) and for being so comfortable with your decisions. It just makes me feel much more at ease thinking about motherhood (even though I'm not planning on having kids) as opposed to the nightmare stories we hear about mothers being overworked, tired and not supported. ❤️
Love how real you are. My first 2 I tried breastfeeding and it was so emotionally and physically draining. I managed for 3/4 months with both but absolutely hated every minute of it. And now I’m pregnant with my third I’ll be going straight to bottle. Fed is absolutely best!🙌🏻❤️
I’ve always thought you are very pretty, but I’m telling you, since becoming a mom you seriously have such a glow and seem so much more beautiful than before! I really enjoy your new mama journey and that you share it so openly. I know that ppl can be so judgmental especially other mothers, it’s so unfortunate. But know that those ppl r not the majority and most of us are cheering you on!
I’m so happy you posted a video Naz, I really appreciate consistency considering you have a newborn baby . I actually love you so much💖 I hope you, Mel and Kavon are safe during quarantine. You’re honestly my favourite UA-camr and you’re such an inspiration to a young girl like me. You’re so pretty and your son is so adorable. Sending lots of love and prayers from England 🙏🏽❤️
When I saw the IG stories with Naz's reply to these comments, I thought "Maybe in the video she said some misleading things or was being defensive when she talked and that's why people got so upset". Then I watch this video and I think Naz is patient enough and wants to share with her followers, so she explains her decisions when she totally does not have to, and people still have the audacity to criticize? God bless Naz for her patience and for putting up with all of that. This job is absolutely not for everybody.
Pumping is definitely a full time job! I did it with my first for 9 months and now im doing it again with my 8 week old. Its so exhausting but so worth it. You're doing great mama..and you look stunning!
you’ve really blossomed into this role as a new mom so beautifully Naz. Appreciating your growth rn because its commendable. You’re doing a great job mamacita!
Cassandra HongMai right? as soon as my son would latch I got this overwhelming feeling of anxiety and it messed with my hormones every time. Formula is a lifesaver. ❤️
You're very open and honest and have been even before pregnancy but even more so when it comes to talking about being a first time mom. I'm currently pregnant and will be a first time mom as well so it's helpful to hear about other women's experiences. You're doing what is best for you and for your son, you're both happier and that's what matters at the end of the day. No one else's opinion matters and everyone should keep in mind that what works for one mama may not work for others and that's okay! Keep doing what you're doing, Von is getting what he needs no matter how you choose to feed him.
I gave up BF after 3 weeks . I literally HAD NO MILK . Second time round I wasn’t going to let it get me down like it did the first time. We all do what we need to do for our babies and tbh I don’t think it was really for me. It hurt so bad every time he latched . Don’t worry first time mums honestly. Please don’t put yourself down about it like I did ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yesssss! I wasn’t producing anything, pumping just drained me because i couldn’t even fill 2oz bottles, and it was draining me emotionally, and on top i instantly got postpartum depression, i know some moms tried to help but it’s like they wanted me to freaken forcefully bf, like... what? i’m happy you did what made you more comfortable, if my other pregnancies and afterbirths go differently and i’m able to bf that’s ok, if not that’s ok too!
I just had a baby 3 weeks ago , this popped up in my recommended. 1. New Subscriber ♥️, I fell in love instantly. 2. You have explained to the T why I want to stop breast feeding. Your reasoning explains it for me perfectly! Thank you.
There’s nothing wrong with as a mom you just don’t like the way it feels or you are uncomfortable. The mom matters as well. As long as your child is being fed, all that matters.
Love how informative this video is Naz💖Not everyone has the same experiences in motherhood! My son is 8 months and exclusively breastfed and we still cosleep! However sometimes I wish I would’ve done things differently because I never get time to myself , it’s difficult to even leave to the store because my son is so attached to my breast. He will refuse bottles so bottle feeding isn’t even an option! I love the bond tho , it’s beautiful and I love being so close to him 💖 My point is, no way is the better way! There’s no strict rules to motherhood , as long as your baby is fed and loved that’s all that matters. You’re doing an amazing job , love these videos 🥰
Just wanted to say my daughter is 9 months and exclusively breastfed. She will not take a bottle whatsoever! I too wish I would of introduced the bottle more to her in the beginning. I love breastfeeding tho but I completely agree! Just know someone out there is going through the same thing as you😭❤️
I was in the same boat. My goal was to breastfeed my daughter till she turned one but I got a little frustrated not being able to do things because she ALWAYS wanted to be on my breast so I tried to introduce the bottle around 3 or 4 months but nope I bought almost every bottle there is and rejected all of them , tried again but with a sippy cup at 1 .. no way , I couldn’t stand hearing her cry until she couldn’t breath finally tried again on May 1st cold turkey, at 22 months old and she didn’t even cry ! 18 days of no breastfeeding ! Definitely a bittersweet moment tho.
Omg yes!! My baby is exclusively breastfed and he is 11 months! I wish I would’ve introduced it and kept going with it but I got PPD/PPA so I felt like pumping and breastfeeding all day was doing so much and when he was two weeks I tried formula and he hated it! So I’m still here and I have definitely learned from this baby. Like just barely he has been leaving my side even if its for a few hours his grandma has been taking him and let me just say it feels so good because I have been with him for 10 months straight & I needed that break
My boy is now 12 months and we are still going strong breastfeeding! I wouldn’t have it any other way. Proud of you Naz for finding what works best for y’all and not allowing others to get to you about their personal opinions.
I love that your so open about your experience with motherhood. I feel like it's so needed. He's changed so much already. Von is such a cutie pie. You guys are always looking out for your subbies. I'm sure some parents could really benefit from trying the program.
I’m happy to hear you found a solution that works for both of you! If you do ever wanna focus on managing your let down you can see if your pediatrician can refer you to a lactation consultant because there’s definitely some tricks and tips they can give you.
you’re a great mama! i agree with you 100000%, my little man is 13 months and there is always judgement around mothering but at the end of the day, you have to do what’s best for you, your baby & family! 💙 thank you for being so genuine. you’re doing a great job!
Naz could you do a video about how you pump (like which pump you like) and how you store it and get it ready? I feel like this would be awesome for those who’d like to learn more. ❤️
Just delete the haters comments...I’m exhausted from seeing them for YOU! You seem like such a great mom, can’t wait to use your tips when I become one 😊
I’m happy you haven’t hopped on the wagon of all these you tubers creating stupid intros with songs that I just skip thru every single time. Keep it nice and simple and straight to the point. That’s why I love your channel
It really sucks that people have to hate and judge so much like leave her alone 😭 don’t feel bad about anything or any part of your experience honestly your videos have been so helpful to me I’m pregnant for the first time and seeing your journey has provided me with a lot of comfort, I was so sad people were hating that you were making a lot of pregnancy/baby related videos because I look forward to those I was so sad when you posted your last pregnancy related video 😭 post what you want and do what you wan you are an amazing person and an amazing mom to Von ❤️
I am SOOOOOOO PROUD of you for having him sleeping in his own room already! (I am a developmental therapist for babies 0-3) Everything else sounds good too!
Chuck B them sleeping in their own bed probably gives them a routine. Mother sleeps better and so does baby, you won’t have a toddler in your bed every night when you train them young
Chuck B I guess everyone is different, I’m due to have a baby in a month so I hear all the pros and cons but I would be more afraid of rolling over the baby or constantly waking up from Any noise like naz stated. I have the owlet so I will just have him in a bassinet near me an thanks for the info I’ll see what works best
I wouldn’t be comfortable with having my daughter sleeping in a separate room from me. Especially since she wakes up to eat in the night I would HATE to have to go to another room to take care of her . I co sleep she sleeps in the bed with my husband and I in the middle with a docatot and we’ve never had any problem with squishing her or anything she sleeps up higher and my husband and I sleep lower on the bed . It’s the best choice I’ve made cuz if anything I just wake up and have her at hands reach or she wakes up and sees momma and poppa right there and never has to be scared or anything .
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I just had my baby two weeks ago and I was having such a hard time with latching. Like you said breastfeeding was so stressful for me and the baby, not the magical moment where oxytocin is released lol. I'm pumping all day everyday as well and feel this has made all of us so much happier. I love seeing you bring awareness to this decision to pump. You go girl!!!! Can you do a video on your pumping essentials/schedule/how to keep milk supply up?
I am expecting my first child and I would LOVE to pump and bottle feed since I would like my parents and husband to bond with him as well! I don’t see anything wrong with your decision, as long as your baby is healthy and you’re happy with your decision, no one should judge. 🤍
I’ve been taking a break from social media too. I only use it if I want to watch something or look at something. I’m no longer just carelessly scrolling and I’ve been so much more present. It feels amazing.
I 100% encourage everything you said. I am having the same story but in a different way. Gave birth 5 days ago and from the very first day my baby didn't latch properly. I live in Australia, many midwives, lactation consultants came to help my baby and I with latching but it just didn't work. She would suck for 5 seconds and then stop again, remove her head or start crying. I felt very anxious, guilty, blamed myself and all I was doing was crying. Eventually we started giving her my expressed colostrum and top up with formula. After watching your video I am encouraged more to just pump and give my milk by bottle just like you as long as it's breast milk and baby is eating something and growing, I am happy. Thanks for sharing this amazing video Naz. You are awesome mum to Kavon. You do whatever works best for you and your child. All the best xx
Naz from one mommy to another🥰🥰 YOU ARE 100% right!! FED IS BEST!!! Von is still getting mommas milk and thats all that matters!!! From a mommy who breast fed for 18.5 months on the breast and pumping-You STILL are breast feeding!! Pumping is a full time job in itself!! Pay no attention to any negativity, you are doing amazing!! Also what you are doing with babyboy when you remove the bottle is called “paced bottle feeding” and is actually exactly how you are supposed to feed a breastfed baby with a bottle🥰🥰 Awesome job mama!!
Yo breastfeeding full time is soo hard omg I did it for 3 months before I introduced a bottle to my baby boy! Your doing great Naz! You do what’s best for your baby and your family
I totally understand you. I always felt I didn't have milk and she was hungry. All I cared about was that she was fed. I love how you share. You tell it like it is. ❤️
can’t speak for everybody but i know a lot of the mommy vloggers/influencers i follow are stay at home moms whose methods and opinions are fit for their lifestyle. obviously everybody does what’s best for them and their family but i appreciate a lot of your choices centering around the fact that you’re a person too! having your baby sleep with you, breastfeeding are all things super vital in the mommy community that they all SWEAR by but no one discusses the cons to them. i appreciate your perspectives naz, definitely teaching me so much when i have a baby of my own
Im so glad i watched this video. Everything you said is spot on and i can totally relate. Thank you for speaking out on this. More people need to be like you when it comes to feeding babies. Usually people who judge have no idea what the journey really is like.
I stopped breastfeeding too! Because I had post partum depression - and BOTH my children would receive my negative energy and be all moody so I opted for formula! STILL DOESNT MAKE US LESS OF A MOM!!! You’re doing great 💗💗💗💗
I love you so much!! thanks for being honest and real. I'm not a mom but seeing you being a mom has taught me so much and I feel like when my time comes I'm going to watch ALL your videos so I can be an amazing mom like you
I APPLAUD YOU👏🏽 you really DONT know what motherhood or parenthood really is until you experience it!! That is why I just can’t wrap my mind around the fact of ANYONE not even having children feel they can have an opinion about parenting! I’m a new mom with a 5 month old. You are doing sooo amazing!! We got this💞
I am so proud of you! You work so hard and anyone can put their two cents in if they think they know better but it doesn't matter because at the end of the day -it is your life!. Big fan from Australia ❤
Definitely one of my top fav videos from your channel ! It was so informing & good to have a lil sit down talking time with everyone. You’re such an amazing mommy & it’s making me look forward to being a mommy one day 🤗💗🙏🏽 i also like how the breastfeeding & sleeping schedule/ his routine went into detail because I feel like we only get told basics
As a new first time mom, this video made me feel so much better. My newborn is having a hard time latching on and he gets to angry and fussy. Watching this video truly made me feel better because I was also thinking of pumping and bottle feeding him like you. I was starting to feel like a bad mother for not breastfeeding. But like you said “fed is best”. Absolutely love watching your videos & Kavon is so beautiful. Congratulations to you & Mel ! & thank you again for this helpful video as all of your videos always are!❤️
I just want to say I’ve been watching you for a few years and I just love how open and genuine you are with us! I personally LOVE your lol videos and I don’t have children yet not many moms share and probably in fear of being criticized but at the end of the day it’s your decision! Much love Naz 🤍
I hate that you have to explain yourself! Like people if you don’t like Naz’ content keep it moving! Content is created for people who are interested! Leave your nasty comments to yourself. Naz, you are a great mother and you don’t need to explain yourself to anybody! Hell, you don’t even have to show us your day to day life! The real supporters appreciate you & don’t have anything negative to say about you! We love your content! I’ve personally been following you since prom days and makeup grwm! So keep up the great work! Take all the time you need to enjoy your family and newborn! 💙
Next week I’ll be 5 months and I’m loving all your baby content!! You’re so honest and there’s some moms that don’t agree but I’m glad I’m not the only one thinks a certain way about things lol. This video was awesome, thanks mama you’re doing amazing!!
Omg I thought I was the only one with this problem. I was literally stressed and also my baby as well because of how I would breastfeed her and would start crying and getting angry all the time but I'm glad I ended up pumping and giving her my milk instead of breastfeeding her. So she's happy and I'm happy with how we're bonding with feeding now. Thank you Naz for this video this made me feel so much better, knowing that there are other mom's out there who's gone through the same thing. You're right "fed is best" 😊 as long as my baby is getting fed and happy then I'm happy 😊😘❤️
I love you Naz!!!🥺 I respect you so much and hate seeing people coming at you over ridiculous things! I see you girl.. your real fans see you and we love and respect everything you do, you’re such a role model for me and so many girls💙 Sagittarius gang♐️
wow Naz i’m soooo sorry that you have to deal with these people 🥺 you and Mel NEED that time! your real fans/followers will understand! we love you, Mel and Kavon!
I dread pumping. I had an oversupply in the beginning and was pumping every hour. Now my baby latches and I only pump at work. Pumping and breast feeding are both difficult! A sacrifice for sure but wouldn’t have it any other way ❤️
I remember I used to get hot flashes in the first two months when I was breast-feeding my son so I know exactly what you mean. But now that the hot flashes are gone I actually prefer breast-feeding over bottlefeeding. It’s just so much easier for me I don’t have to keep warming up and preparing a bottle of milk for my son.
Everything Naz said lol you are right, just take a break if you need it Naz, we'll be here whenever you get back and breastfeeding isn't a must, yeah it has its benefits but it's not mandatory to do, it's better to just do what is best for you as a mom not go off of what people think and say you should do! Everyone is different, different lives, situations, and people! I also can't wait to see Von's room, I see it's coming together!
I started pumping and bottle feeding as soon as I came home from the hospital. My baby's latch was so bad my nipples were bruised and cracked and It was EXTREMELY painful to feed her. Breastfeeding is fr a full time job and im glad you made this video bc I was feeling guilty and felt as if I was taking away from our bonding. Its nice to know im not the only one❤
I have such an appreciation for new mothers bc you’re constantly going through trial and error to find the perfect balance for your child. Kutos to you for truly trying your hardest to make your child happy, only you know how your child feels and reacts to different circumstances so anyone else ESPECIALLY people w no children should just take notes and wait till you experience it first hand. 💗🖤💗🖤💗
Thank you so much for being real with us, Naz. ❤️ You explained everything so well... I’m not a mother yet but I’ve heard a lot about breastfeeding and postpartum and it’s kinda scary. But you’re handling it amazingly!! 😊
omg Naz ! I’ve been watching you forever and it’s such an amazing thing to watch you and your family grow! You shouldn’t ever have to second guess your choices/decisions especially when it comes to the beautiful family you are raising !! You’re such an amazing youtube to even think about the viewers and plan ahead of time to create content for us to watch while you rest with your family and that alone speaks volumes! I wish you and your fam bam the happiest times ♥️♥️♥️
You are a very good mother. I see you are really putting thought into what works best for you and your baby. I’m so proud of you. Thank you for being so honest and sharing your opinions. 😊
Naz we love you so much...we absolutely understand you need to take care of yourself and your little family. Take all the time you need, enjoy the baby ❤️
I honestly feel the same! I’m glad I wasn’t the only one! Breast feeding in the beginning was very stressful for me. My son wouldn’t latch and I knew he wasn’t getting enough that he needed so I would only pump and bottle feed. After a while I noticed my milk supply drop and I began doing every other feeding! It’s just whatever makes you happy and I feel like we all find our own way of doing things that make us happy and comfortable! You’re such a great mom for that! 💗
Thank you for introducing the sleep program! My 10 mo old does not have the best sleep schedule especially since this quarantine. I bought it and will be trying it out today!
Glad Von is doing good! He's looking so much like you lately! Also they say your Baby doesnt need a perfect mother, he needs a happy one! You guys are doing great!
Breastfeeding is hard. Tried to stick with it with my son too but had other complications after birth so was too uncomfortable to focus without all the stress. I also worried about my baby's hunger so gave up & used formula. It also worked that my husband could help with feedings. Had a lot of guilt at first but completely agree with you; Fed is best. Glad you found what worked for you!
I honestly was expecting you guys to take a break when Von was born but you guys just went straight in with the videos and I admired that bc i know that would have been a lot. Take all the time you need bc you deserve it💗💗
I love how you said “fed is best” because there are some “Karen’s” that want to add their 2 cents in when it’s not necessary. I breast feed, but for the first month I pumped then gave him the bottle because my nipples bled so bad. Whatever works for mom and baby honestly. People need to stop with their unsolicited advice.
Yes 👏🏽
🗣🗣
When you first breast feed it hurts so bad !! Especially if the baby isn’t latching in right .. just ask for help and I ended up breastfeeding for 1 year
I hate this “Karen “ trend lol poor people named Karen... plus we all know it’s a snobby white woman you’re referring to 😭
Gosh wassup with all of these names? First it was Becky now Karen? Omg 😂what names do y’all have for the other races?
It’s crazy how cautious you have to be when you talk about your own personal experiences, on your own channel that you’ve worked so hard to build. You aren’t doing anything wrong. You should be able to speak about things the way you want to without people attacking you for it. We are the same age and I’ve watched you from the beginning you’re definitely my favorite UA-camr and it really hurts to see some of the comments people leave because I see such a great person.
It’s so easy to offend ppl. Its terrible. Nothing but support Naz.
Love this comment. Very well said 🙌🏽
Tip Nas: when pulling out the bottle of the baby's mouth, please twist while pulling it out, if not it can create lots of air in his tummy
My mom always told me if you don’t twist you can pull in the baby’s soft spot 😳
Very True
She’s still breastfeeding. Just because she’s not feeding him directly from the breast, doesn’t mean you’re not breastfeeding anymore. He’s still getting your breast milk. It’s the same thing.
You said what so many moms are scared to say. You’re not selfish because you want help from other people, it really does take a village. You’re not a bad mom because you don’t LOVE breast feeding, you’re not neglectful if you want some alone time.
I loved this and by the way I just found your channel and you are seriously one of the most gorgeous women I’ve ever seen
Thank you so much ❤️
In ancient times, all the females in the village took care of the newborn baby. That is why they had so many babies because it wasn’t so taxing on the one mother taking care of the newborn.

i couldn’t stop looking at your makeup in this video it’s perfect
Fr
You technically didn’t stop breastfeeding you stopped nursing. Nothing wrong with that.
@@ab-jc8nv i dont have one 😉
Aw girl I wish people would mind their own business! Everyone's experience is so different and motherhood is already difficult enough it's so important do whats best for ur situation while considering both the child and the mother, ur a boss mama Naz!💞
Girl I’m with you ! I still remembered when “ family “ members used to tell me ohh do this do that , don’t do it this way do it the other way OmG ! 😉😁
i lovee her day in a life vlog, especially when we get to see the little man von von
Some people in these comments are so rude, if Naz didn’t say that she was taking a break and pre filming videos y’all wouldn’t have even know cause she’s been posting regularly. Imagine being a first time mom working 7 days a week also being quarantined. Don’t comment on the way a mother takes care of their children as long as their baby is happy and fed and the mom feels like they’re doing a job that’s all that matters. I’m not a mom but when I do become one I can’t even imagine being a mom on social media. You’re doing a great job Naz as a mom let alone a first time mom Von seems happy and healthy from all the photos and videos you choose to share. I’m grateful you’re sharing your life as a mom and all the pros and cons of being a mom. Keep doing what you’re doing. 🤍
I love that you’re even trying to prefilm for us. You could have just decided to take a break from posting completely. So thank you for that. No matter what, make von your first priority. Being a mommy is hard. thank you for choosing to include us so much in your motherhood journey ❤️
I think that's what she should have done honestly. Take those 6 weeks like everybody else. That's the beauty of being your own boss and making your own schedule. Tell people you're taking a break and why and then peace out. Just about all her subscribers would understand.
Von was like “mom stop talking and put the bottle in my mouth already “ 😂😂😂😂😂
The thing I appreciate and admire most about you is how honest you always are no matter how difficult.
I literally admire so much how Naz always does what is best for her with so much confidence. Motherhood suits her so well she takes on everything with so much maturity 🙌🏽
I don’t have a child , but wow have I learned so much just by watching this video. I can’t wait to be a parent, thank you Naz for the information and he Von Von looks so cute 🥺 hes growing so quick.
The benefit of work like this is that you can shape your own schedule!! You guys have a new baby, of course take breaks as you need, we’ll still be here when you’re back ❤️
Was your mom able to get back home safely and easily?
I needed this. I appreciate your mother talk. I’ve been so stressed out, feeling like I’m not doing enough for my two babies and I just needed that. Thank you
I just had to pause and comment on how important and refreshing what you said what about bottle feeding was. It's so nice to hear about how you were promoting mental health for mothers, being a working mother, sharing responsibilities (we often put the burden entirely on women) and for being so comfortable with your decisions. It just makes me feel much more at ease thinking about motherhood (even though I'm not planning on having kids) as opposed to the nightmare stories we hear about mothers being overworked, tired and not supported. ❤️
“Fed is best” 🙌🏼
YES.
I’m a new mom, 8 months in BF’ing + I agree. Formula/Breastfed, as long as baby’s tummy is full, that’s all that matters. 👏🏽
U dont think it matters WHAT is in his tummy too??!
Can’t wait to be a parent one day and still get inspired by you Naz. Thank you for that🤍
So sweet
Love how real you are. My first 2 I tried breastfeeding and it was so emotionally and physically draining. I managed for 3/4 months with both but absolutely hated every minute of it. And now I’m pregnant with my third I’ll be going straight to bottle. Fed is absolutely best!🙌🏻❤️
I’ve always thought you are very pretty, but I’m telling you, since becoming a mom you seriously have such a glow and seem so much more beautiful than before! I really enjoy your new mama journey and that you share it so openly. I know that ppl can be so judgmental especially other mothers, it’s so unfortunate. But know that those ppl r not the majority and most of us are cheering you on!
I’m so happy you posted a video Naz, I really appreciate consistency considering you have a newborn baby . I actually love you so much💖 I hope you, Mel and Kavon are safe during quarantine. You’re honestly my favourite UA-camr and you’re such an inspiration to a young girl like me. You’re so pretty and your son is so adorable. Sending lots of love and prayers from England 🙏🏽❤️
It’s so true . I get so excited every time she uploads 🥰🥰
When I saw the IG stories with Naz's reply to these comments, I thought "Maybe in the video she said some misleading things or was being defensive when she talked and that's why people got so upset". Then I watch this video and I think Naz is patient enough and wants to share with her followers, so she explains her decisions when she totally does not have to, and people still have the audacity to criticize? God bless Naz for her patience and for putting up with all of that. This job is absolutely not for everybody.
Pumping is definitely a full time job! I did it with my first for 9 months and now im doing it again with my 8 week old. Its so exhausting but so worth it. You're doing great mama..and you look stunning!
Who else does not have a baby but absolutely loved all the information that naz gave in this video!!
you’ve really blossomed into this role as a new mom so beautifully Naz. Appreciating your growth rn because its commendable. You’re doing a great job mamacita!
Breastfeeding wasn’t for me either. Any woman who does it is a champ honestly.
Never knew breastfeeding would hurt. That’s why we should never judge anyone because we don’t know 🤷🏻♀️
Cassandra HongMai right? as soon as my son would latch I got this overwhelming feeling of anxiety and it messed with my hormones every time. Formula is a lifesaver. ❤️
My son is almost 3 and we can’t get him to wean 😅
Yep! My milk came in so fast, and my breasts became so engorged, I cried for days. We ended up switching to formula and it was the best decision ever.
Mayra what do you mean wean?? I have a babygirl 6 mo and I need to know lol
You're very open and honest and have been even before pregnancy but even more so when it comes to talking about being a first time mom. I'm currently pregnant and will be a first time mom as well so it's helpful to hear about other women's experiences. You're doing what is best for you and for your son, you're both happier and that's what matters at the end of the day. No one else's opinion matters and everyone should keep in mind that what works for one mama may not work for others and that's okay! Keep doing what you're doing, Von is getting what he needs no matter how you choose to feed him.
congrats on your baby, I am praying for a safe delivery and a healthy baby stay safe hun
I gave up BF after 3 weeks . I literally HAD NO MILK . Second time round I wasn’t going to let it get me down like it did the first time. We all do what we need to do for our babies and tbh I don’t think it was really for me. It hurt so bad every time he latched . Don’t worry first time mums honestly. Please don’t put yourself down about it like I did ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yesssss! I wasn’t producing anything, pumping just drained me because i couldn’t even fill 2oz bottles, and it was draining me emotionally, and on top i instantly got postpartum depression, i know some moms tried to help but it’s like they wanted me to freaken forcefully bf, like... what? i’m happy you did what made you more comfortable, if my other pregnancies and afterbirths go differently and i’m able to bf that’s ok, if not that’s ok too!
Lizzie Estrada Hernandez it can be really difficult everyone thinks we can produce milk but I struggled to get 2oz from a pump too
Going through this now :(
I’m a simple person I see Kavon I click 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Same 🥰
Gabi and Tino I just subbed to your channel
Lovely Leah 🥰🥰
Thank you so much for using my music so consistently in your videos (including this one)! I'm honored, and I have more coming very soon :)
I just had a baby 3 weeks ago , this popped up in my recommended.
1. New Subscriber ♥️, I fell in love instantly.
2. You have explained to the T why I want to stop breast feeding. Your reasoning explains it for me perfectly! Thank you.
There’s nothing wrong with as a mom you just don’t like the way it feels or you are uncomfortable. The mom matters as well. As long as your child is being fed, all that matters.
Love how informative this video is Naz💖Not everyone has the same experiences in motherhood! My son is 8 months and exclusively breastfed and we still cosleep! However sometimes I wish I would’ve done things differently because I never get time to myself , it’s difficult to even leave to the store because my son is so attached to my breast. He will refuse bottles so bottle feeding isn’t even an option! I love the bond tho , it’s beautiful and I love being so close to him 💖 My point is, no way is the better way! There’s no strict rules to motherhood , as long as your baby is fed and loved that’s all that matters. You’re doing an amazing job , love these videos 🥰
Just wanted to say my daughter is 9 months and exclusively breastfed. She will not take a bottle whatsoever! I too wish I would of introduced the bottle more to her in the beginning. I love breastfeeding tho but I completely agree! Just know someone out there is going through the same thing as you😭❤️
I was in the same boat. My goal was to breastfeed my daughter till she turned one but I got a little frustrated not being able to do things because she ALWAYS wanted to be on my breast so I tried to introduce the bottle around 3 or 4 months but nope I bought almost every bottle there is and rejected all of them , tried again but with a sippy cup at 1 .. no way , I couldn’t stand hearing her cry until she couldn’t breath finally tried again on May 1st cold turkey, at 22 months old and she didn’t even cry ! 18 days of no breastfeeding ! Definitely a bittersweet moment tho.
Omg yes!! My baby is exclusively breastfed and he is 11 months! I wish I would’ve introduced it and kept going with it but I got PPD/PPA so I felt like pumping and breastfeeding all day was doing so much and when he was two weeks I tried formula and he hated it! So I’m still here and I have definitely learned from this baby. Like just barely he has been leaving my side even if its for a few hours his grandma has been taking him and let me just say it feels so good because I have been with him for 10 months straight & I needed that break
It doesnt even look like this is your first time being a mother....you seem so organised and prepared...❤
My boy is now 12 months and we are still going strong breastfeeding! I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Proud of you Naz for finding what works best for y’all and not allowing others to get to you about their personal opinions.
I love that your so open about your experience with motherhood. I feel like it's so needed. He's changed so much already. Von is such a cutie pie. You guys are always looking out for your subbies. I'm sure some parents could really benefit from trying the program.
I’m happy to hear you found a solution that works for both of you! If you do ever wanna focus on managing your let down you can see if your pediatrician can refer you to a lactation consultant because there’s definitely some tricks and tips they can give you.
you’re a great mama! i agree with you 100000%, my little man is 13 months and there is always judgement around mothering but at the end of the day, you have to do what’s best for you, your baby & family! 💙 thank you for being so genuine. you’re doing a great job!
Naz could you do a video about how you pump (like which pump you like) and how you store it and get it ready? I feel like this would be awesome for those who’d like to learn more. ❤️
I was just looking at the little ones program! Glad you had success, and grateful for a coupon code!
Is she deleting comments or are yall lying lmao i see nothing but positivity in the comments and people
Just delete the haters comments...I’m exhausted from seeing them for YOU! You seem like such a great mom, can’t wait to use your tips when I become one 😊
I’m happy you haven’t hopped on the wagon of all these you tubers creating stupid intros with songs that I just skip thru every single time. Keep it nice and simple and straight to the point. That’s why I love your channel
When Naz was talking to Nala I couldn’t help but hear Mels voice over lmao. Who else 🙋🏻♀️
It really sucks that people have to hate and judge so much like leave her alone 😭 don’t feel bad about anything or any part of your experience honestly your videos have been so helpful to me I’m pregnant for the first time and seeing your journey has provided me with a lot of comfort, I was so sad people were hating that you were making a lot of pregnancy/baby related videos because I look forward to those I was so sad when you posted your last pregnancy related video 😭 post what you want and do what you wan you are an amazing person and an amazing mom to Von ❤️
I am SOOOOOOO PROUD of you for having him sleeping in his own room already! (I am a developmental therapist for babies 0-3) Everything else sounds good too!
Chuck B them sleeping in their own bed probably gives them a routine. Mother sleeps better and so does baby, you won’t have a toddler in your bed every night when you train them young
Chuck B I guess everyone is different, I’m due to have a baby in a month so I hear all the pros and cons but I would be more afraid of rolling over the baby or constantly waking up from
Any noise like naz stated. I have the owlet so I will just have him in a bassinet near me an thanks for the info I’ll see what works best
I wouldn’t be comfortable with having my daughter sleeping in a separate room from me. Especially since she wakes up to eat in the night I would HATE to have to go to another room to take care of her . I co sleep she sleeps in the bed with my husband and I in the middle with a docatot and we’ve never had any problem with squishing her or anything she sleeps up higher and my husband and I sleep lower on the bed . It’s the best choice I’ve made cuz if anything I just wake up and have her at hands reach or she wakes up and sees momma and poppa right there and never has to be scared or anything .
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO! I just had my baby two weeks ago and I was having such a hard time with latching. Like you said breastfeeding was so stressful for me and the baby, not the magical moment where oxytocin is released lol. I'm pumping all day everyday as well and feel this has made all of us so much happier. I love seeing you bring awareness to this decision to pump. You go girl!!!! Can you do a video on your pumping essentials/schedule/how to keep milk supply up?
Thank you for making a video like this. Thank you for bringing attention to the fact the mothers needs are always pushed aside and forgotten.
I am expecting my first child and I would LOVE to pump and bottle feed since I would like my parents and husband to bond with him as well! I don’t see anything wrong with your decision, as long as your baby is healthy and you’re happy with your decision, no one should judge. 🤍
I’m honestly so glad you’re making these videos because when I get pregnant I’m definitely going to need them
I’ve been taking a break from social media too. I only use it if I want to watch something or look at something. I’m no longer just carelessly scrolling and I’ve been so much more present. It feels amazing.
I 100% encourage everything you said. I am having the same story but in a different way. Gave birth 5 days ago and from the very first day my baby didn't latch properly. I live in Australia, many midwives, lactation consultants came to help my baby and I with latching but it just didn't work. She would suck for 5 seconds and then stop again, remove her head or start crying. I felt very anxious, guilty, blamed myself and all I was doing was crying. Eventually we started giving her my expressed colostrum and top up with formula. After watching your video I am encouraged more to just pump and give my milk by bottle just like you as long as it's breast milk and baby is eating something and growing, I am happy.
Thanks for sharing this amazing video Naz. You are awesome mum to Kavon. You do whatever works best for you and your child. All the best xx
Naz from one mommy to another🥰🥰 YOU ARE 100% right!! FED IS BEST!!! Von is still getting mommas milk and thats all that matters!!! From a mommy who breast fed for 18.5 months on the breast and pumping-You STILL are breast feeding!! Pumping is a full time job in itself!! Pay no attention to any negativity, you are doing amazing!! Also what you are doing with babyboy when you remove the bottle is called “paced bottle feeding” and is actually exactly how you are supposed to feed a breastfed baby with a bottle🥰🥰 Awesome job mama!!
Yo breastfeeding full time is soo hard omg I did it for 3 months before I introduced a bottle to my baby boy! Your doing great Naz! You do what’s best for your baby and your family
omg!! the little zoom ins you did on von while he was drinking 🥺 HES SO CUTE AND ADORABLE.
Thanks for sharing content like this! It’s so helpful for mommy to be like myself!
I totally understand you. I always felt I didn't have milk and she was hungry. All I cared about was that she was fed. I love how you share. You tell it like it is. ❤️
can’t speak for everybody but i know a lot of the mommy vloggers/influencers i follow are stay at home moms whose methods and opinions are fit for their lifestyle. obviously everybody does what’s best for them and their family but i appreciate a lot of your choices centering around the fact that you’re a person too! having your baby sleep with you, breastfeeding are all things super vital in the mommy community that they all SWEAR by but no one discusses the cons to them. i appreciate your perspectives naz, definitely teaching me so much when i have a baby of my own
Im so glad i watched this video. Everything you said is spot on and i can totally relate. Thank you for speaking out on this. More people need to be like you when it comes to feeding babies. Usually people who judge have no idea what the journey really is like.
NAZ!! TAKE THE TIME YOU NEED WITH YOUR BABY! they grow so fast during these times! We will always be here!💚💚
I stopped breastfeeding too! Because I had post partum depression - and BOTH my children would receive my negative energy and be all moody so I opted for formula! STILL DOESNT MAKE US LESS OF A MOM!!! You’re doing great 💗💗💗💗
You do you babe! Every mother knows what best for her and her child. It’s important for the mom to think about herself too 🤍
I love you so much!! thanks for being honest and real. I'm not a mom but seeing you being a mom has taught me so much and I feel like when my time comes I'm going to watch ALL your videos so I can be an amazing mom like you
This baby is gonna have the best facial expressions I can already tell from the thumbnail😫😂
I APPLAUD YOU👏🏽 you really DONT know what motherhood or parenthood really is until you experience it!! That is why I just can’t wrap my mind around the fact of ANYONE not even having children feel they can have an opinion about parenting! I’m a new mom with a 5 month old. You are doing sooo amazing!! We got this💞
I am so proud of you! You work so hard and anyone can put their two cents in if they think they know better but it doesn't matter because at the end of the day -it is your life!. Big fan from Australia ❤
Aww it’s so nice to see how a great mom you are. You’re definitely such an inspiration as a person and as a mom. Blessings for you and your family.
Definitely one of my top fav videos from your channel ! It was so informing & good to have a lil sit down talking time with everyone. You’re such an amazing mommy & it’s making me look forward to being a mommy one day 🤗💗🙏🏽 i also like how the breastfeeding & sleeping schedule/ his routine went into detail because I feel like we only get told basics
So now a mom gets hate for wanting to spend time with her baby 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
As a new first time mom, this video made me feel so much better. My newborn is having a hard time latching on and he gets to angry and fussy. Watching this video truly made me feel better because I was also thinking of pumping and bottle feeding him like you. I was starting to feel like a bad mother for not breastfeeding. But like you said “fed is best”. Absolutely love watching your videos & Kavon is so beautiful. Congratulations to you & Mel ! & thank you again for this helpful video as all of your videos always are!❤️
I just want to say I’ve been watching you for a few years and I just love how open and genuine you are with us! I personally LOVE your lol videos and I don’t have children yet not many moms share and probably in fear of being criticized but at the end of the day it’s your decision! Much love Naz 🤍
I hate that you have to explain yourself! Like people if you don’t like Naz’ content keep it moving! Content is created for people who are interested! Leave your nasty comments to yourself. Naz, you are a great mother and you don’t need to explain yourself to anybody! Hell, you don’t even have to show us your day to day life! The real supporters appreciate you & don’t have anything negative to say about you! We love your content! I’ve personally been following you since prom days and makeup grwm! So keep up the great work! Take all the time you need to enjoy your family and newborn! 💙
Next week I’ll be 5 months and I’m loving all your baby content!! You’re so honest and there’s some moms that don’t agree but I’m glad I’m not the only one thinks a certain way about things lol. This video was awesome, thanks mama you’re doing amazing!!
Omg I thought I was the only one with this problem. I was literally stressed and also my baby as well because of how I would breastfeed her and would start crying and getting angry all the time but I'm glad I ended up pumping and giving her my milk instead of breastfeeding her. So she's happy and I'm happy with how we're bonding with feeding now. Thank you Naz for this video this made me feel so much better, knowing that there are other mom's out there who's gone through the same thing. You're right "fed is best" 😊 as long as my baby is getting fed and happy then I'm happy 😊😘❤️
This video made me so happy 😭 watching you in mama mode giving advice on everything you’ve learned so far is amazing! You were made for this job. 💛🦋🦋
I love you Naz!!!🥺 I respect you so much and hate seeing people coming at you over ridiculous things! I see you girl.. your real fans see you and we love and respect everything you do, you’re such a role model for me and so many girls💙 Sagittarius gang♐️
wow Naz i’m soooo sorry that you have to deal with these people 🥺 you and Mel NEED that time! your real fans/followers will understand! we love you, Mel and Kavon!
I dread pumping. I had an oversupply in the beginning and was pumping every hour. Now my baby latches and I only pump at work. Pumping and breast feeding are both difficult! A sacrifice for sure but wouldn’t have it any other way ❤️
I remember I used to get hot flashes in the first two months when I was breast-feeding my son so I know exactly what you mean. But now that the hot flashes are gone I actually prefer breast-feeding over bottlefeeding. It’s just so much easier for me I don’t have to keep warming up and preparing a bottle of milk for my son.
Everything Naz said lol you are right, just take a break if you need it Naz, we'll be here whenever you get back and breastfeeding isn't a must, yeah it has its benefits but it's not mandatory to do, it's better to just do what is best for you as a mom not go off of what people think and say you should do! Everyone is different, different lives, situations, and people!
I also can't wait to see Von's room, I see it's coming together!
I started pumping and bottle feeding as soon as I came home from the hospital. My baby's latch was so bad my nipples were bruised and cracked and It was EXTREMELY painful to feed her. Breastfeeding is fr a full time job and im glad you made this video bc I was feeling guilty and felt as if I was taking away from our bonding. Its nice to know im not the only one❤
I have such an appreciation for new mothers bc you’re constantly going through trial and error to find the perfect balance for your child. Kutos to you for truly trying your hardest to make your child happy, only you know how your child feels and reacts to different circumstances so anyone else ESPECIALLY people w no children should just take notes and wait till you experience it first hand. 💗🖤💗🖤💗
Thank you so much for being real with us, Naz. ❤️ You explained everything so well... I’m not a mother yet but I’ve heard a lot about breastfeeding and postpartum and it’s kinda scary. But you’re handling it amazingly!! 😊
omg Naz ! I’ve been watching you forever and it’s such an amazing thing to watch you and your family grow! You shouldn’t ever have to second guess your choices/decisions especially when it comes to the beautiful family you are raising !! You’re such an amazing youtube to even think about the viewers and plan ahead of time to create content for us to watch while you rest with your family and that alone speaks volumes! I wish you and your fam bam the happiest times ♥️♥️♥️
I love you, and I’m so happy for you. You make motherhood look so good💗
You are a very good mother. I see you are really putting thought into what works best for you and your baby. I’m so proud of you. Thank you for being so honest and sharing your opinions. 😊
Naz we love you so much...we absolutely understand you need to take care of yourself and your little family. Take all the time you need, enjoy the baby ❤️
Y’all should make a video of naz speaking to mel in Farsi for a whole day 💀💀
I honestly feel the same! I’m glad I wasn’t the only one! Breast feeding in the beginning was very stressful for me. My son wouldn’t latch and I knew he wasn’t getting enough that he needed so I would only pump and bottle feed. After a while I noticed my milk supply drop and I began doing every other feeding! It’s just whatever makes you happy and I feel like we all find our own way of doing things that make us happy and comfortable! You’re such a great mom for that! 💗
Thank you for introducing the sleep program! My 10 mo old does not have the best sleep schedule especially since this quarantine. I bought it and will be trying it out today!
Glad Von is doing good! He's looking so much like you lately!
Also they say your Baby doesnt need a perfect mother, he needs a happy one! You guys are doing great!
Breastfeeding is hard. Tried to stick with it with my son too but had other complications after birth so was too uncomfortable to focus without all the stress. I also worried about my baby's hunger so gave up & used formula. It also worked that my husband could help with feedings. Had a lot of guilt at first but completely agree with you; Fed is best. Glad you found what worked for you!
I honestly was expecting you guys to take a break when Von was born but you guys just went straight in with the videos and I admired that bc i know that would have been a lot. Take all the time you need bc you deserve it💗💗
Please continue to update us on all baby things . Im due next month and Im loving watching you and your advice .
