You’re doing such an amazing job mommy!! Love that you keep it so real. I remember these days. You guys got this! Such a learning process 💕
Paige Guzman very much so ❤️❤️❤️ a big learning time ❤️
As a soon to be 4th mom-THIS…this right is pretty much it 😂🥰
Iiiiiiiiiikl
I just found out I’m pregnant with my FIRST baby yesterday needless to say I’m terrified and binge watching UA-cam newborn routines.
Kris Jackson your gonna be greatttt! Enjoy it! Life creating inside you is the coolest experience ever! It’s all so so sooo beautiful! I’m posting a labor and delivery q&a this week along with more newborn vlogs 💛
I'm doing exactly the same cause Im a month pregnant and I am scared lol
Hannah Marie Almeyda Ruiz girl congratulations! We’ll get through it!! #NewMomsClub
Lys Heaster thank you so much!! Looking forward to it.
Same! I found out I’m pregnant five days ago
I really needed this. First time mom here and I am so worried about having my baby boy who is due in August.
Every other video I have seen is glamorized and is by more experienced moms. I needed something real and not seem scripted.
You are doing a great job!
thank you soooo much im super glad you enjoyed it! I hope you will like other videos of mine as well!
Expecting my first baby in August also. Baby boy
Expecting my first baby in August too.... Baby girl :) xx
expecting my first baby in august as well, baby boy 💙🥰
Congrats to us all :) We shall be entering motherhood very soon, god willingly. Looks like there are a few of us that are having summer babies!!! Xx
I loveeee how raw and real this is. I'm expecting in June and keep watching night routines with newborn and it's all wayyyy to "easy and fake" looking. Shows nothing of the mental toll for new mommies, actual dealing with sleep and crying, love that you do. Thank uuu super helpful to prepare
Absolutely! I remember those first two nights being very tough on us so I thought “i need to just grab my camera and take glimpses” and I’m glad i did!!! It didn’t last long! He’s now 1.5 months and has started sleeping through the night 👏🏼 so there’s night and the end of the tunnel! And then they just basically need to eat and sleep! I have a labor and delivery q&a I’m posing on Monday I believe, and some newborn vlogs. I’d love for you to subscribe and stick around for them 💛
Thank you for keeping it real! I feel like a lot of postpartum/newborn videos I’ve seen are really glamorized and make it look like a piece of cake which in reality, it can be really difficult between the recovery pain, little sleep, and just figuring things out as a new mama! You’re doing so great!❤️.
YES YES YES ! I agree
Most babies don’t even cry in those videos and they wake up perfectly after 3 hours lol.
awe i remember the first few days with my first. so sweet! and you're right you don't even know what to do as a first time mom.. lol however since I'm 37 weeks pregnant with my 3rd and have a little more experience now compared to back then , I wanted to tell you things I WISH people would have told me.
1. keep day light bright as possible, and night time dark... aka try and do night feeds with little light. or laying down(OMG makes breast feeding soo much easier.)
2. put a lot of diaper cream on before bed. A little pee in a diaper is ok. I was one of those first time parents that thought you had to change a diaper the moment it gets wet or the moment your baby wakes up. and no you don't want your child sitting in a dirty diaper, but if its not a lot of pee at night time with diaper cream it will be ok. trust me on this one, it'll cut those long feedings in half and hell go right back to sleep a lot easier without being messed with so much.
3. SLEEP GOWNS! and the love me sleep/ swaddle. = LIFE changing.. go buy it now, seriously.. now.
4. don't wake a sleeping baby! do this for your sanity. If your baby isn't severely underweight its perfectly normal and ok for the baby to sleep 3 even sometimes 4 hour stretches. and that means YOU SLEEP 3-4 hours stretches!! and this is major key for recovering and happy momma=happy baby. He'll most likely have a longer feed when he wakes or cluster feed through out the day to keep up.
i hope this helps, I had to stop half way through.. now I'm gonna finish the video.. Good luck momma.. and remember you just had a baby. It's ok to say no to visitors, its ok to ask for help, its ok to cry when overwhelmed, its ok to need a break, its ok to feel the deepest love you've ever known and emotional. Give yourself grace, take it slow.. slow slow slow.
Jasmine Kaney oh my goodness thank you!!!!! That was all actually really helpful! I do like asking moms questions and learning bc I’ve never done this before! I’ve found some are like “my way or no way” and i don’t like that kinda advice. But yours was all so great!!! Someone else told me about day/night lighting and that made total sense! We didn’t do that at all in the beginning!!! The diaper thing I’m that way after every change I thought he had to be clean at all times. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️ and yes now 1 month out, I have my ideas on “waking him” so then at 5 days old I’m glad we woke him bc we needed too his weight wasn’t good. Even still his weight isn’t good :( I’m looking forward to when he finally gets up there and better. He’s lost weight and docs are concerned so we keep going back to appts frequently. I think we’ve finally got something going for the better right now! We make sure he eats every 2-3 hours during the day depending if he’s sleeping or not, just to get the milk in him. And then at night we no longer wake him. (When he finallllly hit his birth weight our doc told us we could stop waking him at night time) just last night he had a 5 hours stretch! 🙌🏼 he will get there... we are working with him to get better!
Is it the love to dream swaddle???
@@LysHeaster yes!!!!! its seriously all we used with our second girl
@@LysHeaster I'm sure thats super frustrating! Are you still having pain w/ breastfeeding? is it possible he might be lip or tongue tied? that can make things super painful and also make it more difficult for him to efficiently feed, whether bottle or boob. Kellymom.com is an awesome recourse for breastfeeding if youre interested.
Jasmine Kaney thanks
I love how real you are like yes I just peed on the floor and no I’m not cleaning it up right now I love you ❤️
hahahha thank you!!!!
She pooped
Now THIS is a realistic newborn video! Im a mom to 3 boys, expecting baby boy #4 and none of the videos I find are as real as this. You’ve got this!
THANK YOU!!!!!!! 🙌💛
I agree ! I have four kids ! Very real !
Tough part of first time parenting! As a mom of two soon to be three my experience is don’t worry about waking your baby unless he’s not gaining weight. But obviously do what makes you feel comfortable!
Sasha S yeah, that’s what I’ve learned now since then ❤️ he was loosing weight at that time and not up to birth weight yet, so we were advised to wake him still. And even so now at his 1 month appt today he’s lost weight since his last appt two weeks ago ;:(
Lys Heaster they’ll lose at first, with breastfeeding. But if it’s not a substantial amount, I wouldn’t be concerned. 💜
In the beginning they need to be woken up because their sugar can’t sustain on their own. But after 6-8 weeks they can.
Keeping an Open mind that’s really not true at all. They check their blood sugar at the hospital. Unless they’re premature or there is concern about their weight/blood sugar to begin with, you do not need to wake a sleeping baby.
CrystalBee ok well I was educated a different way then. As I understand it for the first month or so baby’s do need to be woken to be breastfed. There are many things to consider why but hey if you are comfortable not doing so good luck. For me and my two girls who I exclusively breastfed that’s what I felt most comfortable doing. But I also had them co-sleeping with me so it wasn’t hard or inconvenient.
This was the most real vlog I’ve seen with a new born! Brings back so many stressful and hard feelings for me since it was so hard for me during that stage. Sending you love, you got this girl, you’re doing amazing! 💚✨
Bee Luvin yes! That stage was a rough one 💛💛💛
I really really REALLY appreciate how real you kept this! It helps other first time moms like me feel more confident that we are in the same boat and feel less pressure to have everything perfect. Motherhood is so beautiful nevertheless! You're doing awesome thank you again! I'm going to be a mama I'm Sept so watching videos like yours now is helpful!
THANK YOU for that comment! It makes me feel better about sharing and keeping it 100% honest with the feelings I have. I have several other videos like this that may help you too! Or you may just enjoy. I'd love it if you subscribed! 💞 and congrats mama!! This is such an amazing time! (but still can be challenging)
When I first got home with my baby girl I had to cook and clean, I didn't have special help, I didn't worry about it because moving around helped with a faster recovery.
your a great mom im sure!!
Thank you for your completely honest video about the struggles of being a new mom. Not just with setting a routine but also recovering from giving birth and the challenges that brings in addition to trying to care for a baby on little to no sleep.
Allegra Swan absolutely!!!! I want to show the good and hard times of life! Thank you so much for your support in this comment! Helps me know I’m doing something right!
I'm to young to be a mom, I'm to young to be a mom, I'm to young to be a mom
Shamalamakiwi go work in a daycare. You’ll get rid of the fever real quick lol
@@karlynnward2277 hahhahahhahah I wish.
@@karlynnward2277 my guy,,, i babysit once a week, teach preschool, and no matter what i do, baby fever DOES NOT GO AWAY
Can't wait to have my baby. 40 weeks and 5 days. She doesn't want to come out 🥺
I canNOT believe you even had the will to vlog! I wish I had! I’m so glad you did though. Loved watching this. So REAL! And you’ll love the memories someday. 💛
Savannah Lewie yeah it’s was a pretty wild time that’s for sure 😂🙈 a whirlwind going through motions 💛 his looks in his face have changed like crazy since then in a month!
You're doing amazing, I saw your most recent post on instagram and honestly dont listen to the mom shamers, everyone handles postpartum differently, being a mother to a newborn differently, everyone handles life differently to be honest. You're doing what you know is best for wesson and it shows, he's a happy, healthy baby and handsome as all hell, you're amazing Lys dont let anyone dim your light.
Katie Wood awww thank you Katie! Tha k you sooooo much! 🖤
I’m really obsessed with these New born baby nighttime routines! And out of all the routines that I have saw your’s seems like the most realistic (I don’t really know how a baby nighttime routine is supposed to be because I’m only 14 LOL) but I wanted o say that your an amazing mother! And your son is extremely adorable ☺️✨👌🏾
thank you soooo much! i am glad you enjoy it!
Finally a REAL all night routine! Thank you for sharing💕
Sierra Mae absolutely! Thank you so much for watching and appreciating it ❤️

You're a really good mother
Shamar THANK YOU! Thank you thank you!!!!! Need that 🙏🏼
Girl!! I'm at the point in my life where I actually want a baby and the fear of the unknown is what has kept me hesitating.. then I found your vlog. Thank you so much for being so raw and real for your viewers. this is the stuff I wonder about. Whats the first week like? is it scary? is is overwhelming? you honestly make it way less scary! I love your vlogs!!
aww omg! Thank you SO SO SO much for that comment! That makes my heart very happy to hear!💛
This terrifies me, and I'm being induced tomorrow. D: You're doing a great job!
don't let it ❤️ birth is a BEAUTIFUL thing! I LOVEDDDD mine, and do it all again tomorrow if I could! I was also induced, and I had an absolutely amazing experience!
Pink Cool i hope everything goes well💕
Omg how did it gooo
Pink Cool yes update us when you can! How was your experience mamma!
30 weeks pregnant with my first baby, this video is so helpful, we need realness 💫
Yes yes yes I so agree! Thank you! I get crap for it a lot and it makes things hard to grow on youtube. So thank you hearing that!
Pray girl. Take it easy. Congratulations with your new baby. My grandmother told me to sleep when the baby sleeps. She was right! Take care
I love how all the diapers and stuff are organized in those baskets!!
i looooove baskets and organizing!
I’m due in 10 weeks n I really needed a non glamorized video like this, thank you!!
Absolutely!! Thank you for your comment! I have another video in this format. A real 24 hour vlog
Hey we're do around the same time good luck
Keep baby in your room if you don’t! Have everything on your nightstand. Baby wakes use the hatch baby for light, nurse baby etc and back to sleep! I have my second baby a week ago and I’m awake 30 mins max when he wakes.
Oh yeah we've got it down good now ❤️ Now I'm 1.5 months postpartum, It doesn't take long to feed him at all anymore, just the beginning did from getting use to it all him and I ❤️ I love the hatch baby sound machine! And yes he's always been in our room in a bassinet next to our bed ❤️❤️
I am 6 days postpartum. Man, your video is spot on. Our baby girl doesn’t wake up to eat earlier than 3 hours. It does not matter WHAT we do . She does great during the day. Then night rolls around. 😩. So hard. I don’t think I’ve had more than 8 hours of sleep since she was born 6 days ago. I’m so weak in my back as well that I hit a wall and can’t stand. My husband does so much for our girl, and I don’t know how other women are up running around.
awwww love and respect to you mama!!!
This is one of the first REAL videos I’ve seen with a mom and their newborn. I’m only 15 weeks but jeez I know nothing and it scares me! I wish more women weren’t afraid to post the “gross” or “embarrassing” moments and stop being so uptight! I really appreciated this video!
Hannah McKay Aw!!!!! Thank you thank you!!!!! I love to share the good and the hard times both! Everyone’s life is so complex and different, but we ALL have good and hard times. Thank you for your support in this video and in my channels purpose... i really appreciate it! More than you know! Makes me feel like I’m doing something right
I’m about to be 16 weeks. When are you due?
“Waking” the baby to feed is called dream feeding. It works wonders and helps him sleep longer. Which is the ultimate plus for mom 💕
I have done dream feeds on him now 💓
Lys Heaster how do you like it?
Thank you for posting this! Very real life. I have a 3 week old and this makes me feel less lonely. You're a great mama.
Yay! Our babies are so close in age! My guy is now 6 weeks today! 🤍🥺 thank you for watching! And commenting! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I love how real this is, thank you for being authentic!
Absolutely! 🥰
Girl after I had my baby (via c-section) I was soooo thankful for those over sized pads they give you in the hospital. The ones that pretty much cover your entire front and back like a diaper. Because being in labor for o we 18+ hours with all of the fluids they were giving me, I peed myself like 3 times in the hospital evasive I was in so much pain I could t get out of bed fast enough and make it to the bathroom in time. It was terrible. Your doing an amazing job! My first two weeks with my baby was exhausting! You have been doing an amazing job!
thank you sooooo much! I used the hospital pads, and allll of them I brought home with me
I am not a mom nor do I plan to have a baby soon but I have never seen in anyone else’s video the raw news of truly what mothers endure after giving birth and I really didn’t realize all the pain you still feel after and it’s just really nice to see the reality of it so I know Someday and your baby is so precious 🥺
Aw! Thank you so much. That is so great to hear that it touched you in that way. Thank you for your comment
I dont know why im watching this so early😂😂 im 21 weeks with my baby boy and binge watching these
you are a great mama and are excited! YAY! I did the same thing. Soon enough your baby boy will be 4 months old!
Same girl I’m 9 weeks 5 days and still watching these😂😂😂
Finally I see your video, been looking for genuine moms with their nighttime routine with new borns. Most of them is about a month/months old... I love how you have kept it real. I mean I’m going to look like a mess when I have my baby girl in 8 weeks. I love how real you actually made this. Thank you. Subscribing to you for your realness. Xoxox
alie balie thank you thank you sooooo much! I appreciate that comment and the subscribe 😭 i always like sharing my honest thoughts weather good or bad
Have a 8 day old here! Girl I can completely relate to this vid! Stay strong we'll sleep normally again one day!
Yesss! 💪🏻🙏🏼 I’m glad you can relate and we’re in this together
One day scares me 😂
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. I feel ready now. I had my first 7 years ago but I completely forgot how everything goes idk how I did it being 17 and I didn’t watch videos like these I just winged it all. Thank you 🙏🏻 I’m scared but if a young me can do it then an older me can do it 👊🏻
YES MAMA! I loooove that mentality! You have got it. I went in completely blind too and then thought I should share share one of our first nights home. It was much more than I expected
Same here. Had my first 7 years ago and im pregnant again! I've done this all before but every baby is different and I'm STILL nervous lol im 31 now so I feel like the sleep deprivation might hit me a bit harder this time around
This video really helped me because I’m expecting my first baby in the beginning of June
Julie Balkom awww congrats!!!! And I’m glad it did 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Me too doing it alone first couple of months scared but cant wait
Im having a baby girl, she’s due very soon! I couldn’t be more scared but I am so exited to be a mommy!
You will be so so so amazing! Those last few weeks can be anxious as can be I totally get that. You will be incredible! Speak positivity into you mama! Almost time to meet your beautiful babe
Thank you so much for sharing the downs and craziness of first time, freshly postpartum mom life. I can feel your pain girl. But every day gets a little better. Hang in there and never ever forget to ask for help
Marlene Gonzalez thank you for that! 💛💛💛 it has definitely gotten better since 💛
I'm 10 days postpartum with my 1st. I am lucky I didn't have an issue with going to the toilet. But man the night's are hard!!! You showed a real night time with a new born. I appreciate the real.
THANK YOU! thank you for watching and the comment. it means so so sooo much to me! My son is now 2 months old today! Thats so good it didn't hurt for you going to the bathroom
Those first few seconds are real!
Yesterday I found one of the newborn nappies my 2yr old used to wear( not literally 😅) and honestly bawled because she’s such a chunk now 😭😭
You are amazing Lys. Thank you for sharing this. This is the side that evryone tries to hide cause they aren't perfect but, you just had a baby and that is perfect...love you. Stay safe and healthy and here are my best wishes that baby Wesson keeps getting stronger and bigger. You are doing an amazing job Momma...
Didi K thank you thank you!!! Stronger and bigger is my wish too 🙏🏼💙 thank you as always!!!
You are doing great. It’s so hard being a new mama. My baby is 1 now and I’m also a younger mama. Will be 25 in June 😱 I remember the first few nights. I would just sit and cry because I couldn’t figure out what was going on. I exclusively pumped for an entire year. My son decided he didn’t want to latch after week 1 so I pumped every 3 hours and bottle fed. My milk supply increased sooo much by doing that. 🤷♀️ and breast milk is good for 6 hours out at room temperature (fresh from pumping) so it was amazing being able to sleep for longer than 3 hours. Your doing great though! You do whatever is best for little man. They used to say breast is best now Fed is best. 😁
Miranda Denman yes 💙 fed is best! I had bee exclusively breast feeding, but grand would give a bottle of my milk in the middle on the night to let me sleep
But he has lost more weight, so the past two days I’ve just pumped and given him bottles of my milk. How did you sleep more than 3 hours? Sorry I’m not following that part and I wanna know ❤️❤️
So I pumped every 3 hours on the dot. And I had a oversupply of milk so in the beginning I would double pump and sit there for a sold 15 mins no matter if I was producing any milk or not into the bottle. So I would get 4 ounces-5 ounces total from that pump session. I would give baby and bottle to daddy and say goodnight 😆 no really even if it was during the day and I needed to sleep if I had enough milk pumped to take a longer nap I would totally do it. And my son also had his days and nights mixed up too. I will tell you what helped us was a good sound machine and the “halo” sleep sacks. They literally were a life saver!! I got mine from kohl’s. They have all different sizes as well so they can use them longer. 🤷♀️🙏 I hope this helps! But for real. Your doing great. It’s extremely scary and overwhelming in the beginning. My aunt told me “the scariest hood you’ll ever go through is parenthood” 😂 and boy is that true.
I love how real this is . I was starting to have high expectations beacuse of other bloggers videos
My son is 12 weeks old now,as im alone night routine is a nightmare,sometimes every 2 hours sometimes every half an hour,as i dont have to much milk he feels hangry most of the time,i feel tired all the time
i totallllly feel you mama! hang in there!! its gonna get better soon
I love how real this video is! Congratulations on your baby boy🥺💕 I’ll be getting induced in two days and I’m so excited yet scared!
Life With Yaya be excited! Continue that! Your gonna be meeting your sweet babe you’ve waited so long to meet! It’s a big mindset thing! Hang in there mama! And KNOW you got this! It’s NOT an awful process, not at all. 💗💗💗💗 it’s BEAUTIFUL
I love how raw and real this is. I remember those days of being a ftm. I’ll be having my third in 5 weeks and it’s been six years so it’ll be like starting allllll over lol
Chrissy B ❤️❤️❤️ have you had baby?!
Lys Heaster Yes! He turned 8 weeks old today 💜💜💜
First time mom and due in 9 weeks and love the real ness of this video
thank you so much and CONGRATS!
I will be a first time mother in August 2020. I’m so nervous, I’m the youngest child of 3. I’ve never even been around babies!! I am so nervous to say the least. I don’t know baby routines or anything. This is such a true video, you are doing great. Our motherly instincts just kick in, it’s natural..
Yes! You will do so good with your baby! My son is the first baby I have been around myself.
Love this video , I’m 40 weeks waiting for her to come out and nervous because I have no idea what I’ll be doing either 🙃😂
HOW WAS IT MAMA!? How are you doing
Lys Heaster she finally came a week later and I love it. The first week was the worst though❤️
Same here girl. I am 31 weeks and i am nervous as hell
I remember having my first born lol everything is new . You are trying and doing good .. with my second I got a hang of things when I’ve been there and done that . Now my kids are 5 years old and 1 years old
💝
I don’t have babies nor am I pregnant but I love watching these kind of videos!
You are doing great!! I foster kittens and I'm fourteen, so sometimes I have to wake up every two hours, and I have no idea how you do it! He is the most precious baby!!
Shaylyn Bratcher was that’s cool!!! Thank you ❤️
This is the best video I have seen. I am due next week and I have been seriously stressed about how perfect everyone seems to cope/look and feel. I really appreciate you doing this, thank you so much.
I don’t understand how other first time moms are like going outside and cleaning and doing all of this stuff...I literally couldn’t do anything for so long. Even still, 2 months in, I rarely do more than bare minimum 😪
Does the after ease actually work? I’m due with baby #3 in two weeks and I wanted to buy it but keep hesitating!!!!!
I’m terrified of the healing process I’m due in December and I’m horrified of everything that happens afterwards when we’re you out of pain and feeling close to normal
1-2 weeks! after the first few days it was bad at all. like 5 days maybe, then it was just slight. BUT that was only because I tore more than normal. I know many girls that weren't in pain at all like I was. The pain was very manageable as well

Ik this is not as recent of a video but your son is precious! I have 2 kids my daughter just turned 10 months and my son is 2 yrs. I miss them being this little except for waking up so often during the day but its so worth it. Way to go Mama! I remember going through this stuff especially hurting when I peed in recovery it was soo bad. I love how real this is. Birth and recovery is SO hard! Especially emtionally omg.
This is THE BEST vlog about being a new mom!! Thank you for keeping it real 🙌🏾 im due July 6th and this video is extremely helpful!
Raquhel Stone thank you thank youuu 🙏🏼🙏🏼🥺 so great to know it was so helpful 💛
This is the BEST video I have seen so far !!! Usually Vlogger Moms are all glam and glitter and make everything seem so easy. You Girl Rock ! :)) I am 32 weeks first timer and probably will do the same "surviving" and figuring everything out once we will get home from the hospital. Wishing you all the best !!!! You guys are superstars !!!
thank you so so much! I am glad you appreciated it!!
Thank you for sharing this is the realest video I have seen so far.
I am due on 25th July . Any advice or suggestions . I am planning for a normal delivery . I don't know anything post delivery routine or any other routine . How to take care of ourselves . Baby , I know but my body , how it changes what happens, what to do , I am nothing aware of
This is the most realistic routine I've seen so far, Im do any time now and this was so helpful and is gonna make me feel so much better when the time comes. Thank you!
Ugh those days.. you’re doing an amazing job
Shelby Williams yeah those days 😂😭 they get better right?! 😂
Omg I 10 weeks pregnant with my first and I am so terrified and every video I have watched make it looks so easy and beautiful which made me so nervous of getting it wrong and not being perfect ! But watching this has made me feel so good because this video is so real and genuine! Thank you so much for sharing 💕💕💕💕💕
Great job guys! Wesson maybe have his days and nights mixed up if you have your house lights on while feeding him during the night try a small lamp/night light
Natalie Morris thank you ❤️❤️❤️ we had been doing that, and recently actually heard not too and that makes sense, so I stopped ❤️
Every baby is different ! ❤️🥰love the vids very relatable !

This is so relatable. I am also not giving formula to my baby ( although it’s easy method to get some rest) and every nurse suggested that breast milk is the best for babies. We are also first time parents, parents couldn’t come and our nights are exactly the same. You did so good!
If you're a newborn mum and watching this...you do not need to worry about feeding timings unless you have a newborn that is struggling to gain weight. Babies will tell you when they are hungry by crying and rooting. Babies who are happy and full with no apparent gas will fall asleep and provide wet nappies. Don't wake a sleeping baby, they will wake up when they're ready to eat. If your baby has eaten and has a dry nappy and is still fussy...remember, babies want to be cradled by their mum to feel safe and secure, and they'll feel this way for the first few months. Newborn babies do no know what a routine is and will not benefit from it until they are a couple months older. Just relax, feed and change and love your baby. That is all
6 months pregnant here✋ and i just found your page! you're doing great!
Lys you're truly beautiful and we all understand what you are going through! I just wanted to say thank you for keeping your vlogs so raw for us subscribers that are still too young to have children of our own! You are doing great! Keep up the good work!
Cassidy Sherrill Aw! Absolutely!!!!! I would’ve liked to see something like it, so I’m glad to get good feedback on it ❤️❤️ makes me know to make more content like it!
@@LysHeaster It's kind of helping me see how to handle a newborn. I baby sit and I've held newborns but never my own newborn. I baby sit a 5 year old sometimes. So again thank you for that too!
During the night try to keep the baby's room dark, dim the lights so the baby eventually will differentiate day from night. Also, they get stimulated at every light they see, especially during the night.
You're doing o great job, everything will be leaned as you go, trust your instinct the most!
Yes ❤️ thank you! We definitely do that now and he's been sleeping through the night for about a month now or more!
new mom as well and couldn’t be happier !! 💙💙 i have the exact same thing happened to me , my poor baby boy got so used to being held it has been so rare that he will last more than 30 min asleep on his back , any tips or tricks ??
You’re very early on in this video. I’m sure you’ve figured it out by now. Didn’t take me long, as a new mom, to bring my baby to bed with me. It’s the best thing in the world! So natural, normal and convenient! You won’t smother your baby. I remember waking up at every little sound that he made. When he was hungry, I knew it and would just nurse him back to sleep. So beautiful and easy.
Amanda Jackson I’m glad that worked for you ❤️ us moms know best for our babies!
I am a first time mum, my baby is 4 days old and refuses to sleep in his crib or anywhere that isn’t in our arms for more than 30 mins. My fiancé and I are doing shifts through the days and nights to make sure neither of us falls asleep holding him. It’s fine because he’s so tiny I know it’s just what we have to do at the moment. But I’m watching these newborn routines like 🤭 I wish my baby slept in his crib lol. I’m also struggling with breastfeeding my nipples are sore and scabby, my milk is trying to come in but I’ve been having to wear nipple shields and now he won’t latch onto my nipple without the shields. We’ve been having to supplement with formula and I’ve tried manually pumping a little bit today and he really seems to enjoy that. He is so much more satisfied after drinking from a bottle than my breast. I think the shields stop him from getting very much too. Sometimes I just sit and sob my eyes out. Everything we’re doing is what is best and working for us at the moment and I’m sure I would still be crying even if everything was ‘perfect’ but god nothing can prepare you for being a parent. He’s so amazing I love him so much my heart hurts when I look at him and I’m obsessed with all the baby cuddles it’s such a strange bizarre feeling being so extremely tired and emotional and feeling so helpless all the time but the amount of love you have for your baby and how I wouldn’t change anything for the world. Not sure what I was getting out of this comment I just needed somewhere to get it out! This is such a real raw video and I really appreciate it x
AW! I feel this comment like none other. Mama! THANK YOU for this vulnerability and realizing that motherhood especially new postpartum motherhood isn't this easy dream. We had that same thing happen with our son!! I have info what helped us! I am going to film a sleeping video today and post it hopefully tomorrow, if not friday! Wesson now sleeps 12-13 hours a night! Insane! To correct things young is the best in my opinion.
This seems so much more realistic than most. Thank you! Great video.
Thank you so so much! I appreciate that!!
I LOVE IT how you make this video so real!! I think for a lot going to be moms this is really helpful
Love the realness girl! 🤍
Barrows Of Love thank you ❤️ I’m glad to share and help people!
This is amazing - thank you so much for being so vulnerable!! It seriously helps me out so much!!
Makenzie Burnett absolutely! I’m SO SO glad the vulnerability is helping 💛 it’s such a crazy time!!
Thank you for being so transparent and upfront !!
Absolutely!! Thank you so much for watching!
I always woke my sleeping baby.. it calmed my fears😂😂 you’re doing a great job!
thank you for that comment 💘 I totally agree now and feel confident in that 100%! we woke him up for a while until our doc said we didn't need to because he was up to birth weight.
I’ve always heard that you should wake a newborn just so they get into a routine and pack some weight 😊 but whatever works for you and your baby is what is best!
Thank you for that in a positive way
Love it HOW real this video is!!!
Okay but no one told me I'd pee myself while trying to go to the bathroom. Once I'm in the bathroom I have to run to the toilet and I end up peeing in my pad and sometimes on the seat and floor. I don't have time to fill my bottle up so I use cold water that I filled up my last bathroom break (3days postpartum)
This is so helpful 😍😍 Thank you for sharing your journey!! You’re doing amazing
I am super glad! Thank youuu
It's so nice to see someone how is so real thanks so much Hun ♥️♥️♥️
Emily Dickinson absolutely ❤️❤️❤️ it could’ve helped me when i was a pregnant!
My Mom has told me not to wake the baby up ... he will let you know when he is hungry! My baby is due in 11 weeks and first time Mama here too. You got this but I would say let him sleep until he wakes himself up and is hungry that way he is getting into his own natural pattern down pat . ❤️
Thank you for being kind about that topic ❤️ He now sleeps through the night and it works for him. At that time he wasn't up to birth weight yet and was having weight issues on top of that, so we did have to wake him being so young to make sure he was getting as much milk in him as we could or else he would've slept all day almost
