Thank you Fourie. You once taught me Labour Law Certificate at UKZN in 2016. We gained. I have a formal qualification now. 👏 👏 👏
Such important insights! Love how you wonderful humans are always pointing us back to ourselves, the intelligent design of our bodies and encouraging a curious mindset. Your course is absolutely incredible, and worth the investment a hundred times over :)
Very informative! Great discussion about a complicated topic.
Thank you so much for sharing with us here, as a first time mom i had no idea where to start with my baby girl who now is 4 and half month old for EC,and i just started today with her to hold her on the potty and peed every time. im so happy and will contine trying. thanks again.
Just had my first I really wanted a natural birth but my waters broke and I wasn't having enough contractions so after getting a pill to "get things going" I was shaking uncontrollably and throwing up with no breaks between unbearable contractions, I was terrified I wouldn't be able to move with the epidural but after I got it (apparently a fairly light dose) I could dance around and go on the birth ball no catheter and went to the bathroom on my own 😊 I did almost pass out when I tried to stand the first time after the birth though 😅now I'm debating whether I'll be willing to try a natural birth on the next one despite being so anti epidural before this one 😂 my entire labor and birth from the moment my waters broke to baby coming out was 12h which for a first kid I think it's pretty good 😊
Have you ever tried Dove sensitive skin bar soap for your husband? I know you go for everything organic, but trying this soap might help. I tried organic soap years ago because of sensitive skin. I can't use any soap that has a fragnance. I got such a rash from the organic soap. Went to the doctor and he said it was an allergic reaction. I didn't link it to the soap until I dropped the organic soap and switched to Dove sensitive skin. Only then did the rash disappear.
never cleaned a house until became a parent... wow... 🤯
A lot of South-Africans and for that matter, Namibians, grew up with domestic help. If you are not from there, it might be a weird concept. With unemployment so very high, it has always been a way to provide employment to women who otherwise would not have been able to find work. I didn't grew up in a house where it made financially sense. Anyways, we were 3 girls, so it were us and my mom who did the cleaning, laundry and cooking. Something that came in handy when we mkved to Canada. So it wasn't something new for me. However if you was a family that could afford to provide this employment opportunity to a woman so that she can feed her own kids, why wouldn't you?
Clicked and then seen CALGARY!? 😍 we’re nearby and I’m a realtor who helps move doctors to Canada!
Hi! I have super sensitive dry skin too! I live in alberta, during the winter, i have my humidifier going, and i also keep a pot of water steaming on the stove all day long too.
We're from Namibia that always has sun. Moving to Edmonton that has a lot less sun, I was like, the sun shines and we need to go for a walk right now. Then my husband would say, no he wants to first finish with what he's busy with and then we can go. Half hour later the sun was behind clouds. And I felt like I could go sit and cry because I missed the opportunity to be in the sun😂. Now it doesn't bother me that much anymore. But it was crazy in the beginning and back then Edmonton received more rain than what it's getting the last few years. Which means more sun for me😊
If you ever want to move within Alberta - Medicine Hat is a small city in the south and we get 330 days of sun! I’ve always known us to be the sunniest city in Canada but google only likes the big cities 😂
Learn to skate, cross-country ski and snowshoe.
When its below -15 go for a walk in the woods. The trees eliminate all wind; so that there is no wind chill. It's the wind that makes being outside feel so much colder.
I really appreciate your matter of fact honesty with the non linear learning journey. For a long list of reasons, we didn't feel able to try EC with our baby as a little baby (not least of which not even having time to explore it as an option until she was 9+. months). But we are trying now with her as a 12 mo old. Obviously we miss more than we catch, especially pees. I feel like we let her get used to even the wet/moist feeling even in cloth nappies, which is a little frustrating --mostly for ourselves, feeling a little bad that we let her sit in her soiled nappies long enough that she eventually got used to it 😢). Still, even after a week of trial and error at transition times we can already see she has quite a bit more body awareness. Our goal isn't "nappy free", and I try to remember that, as you say. I am mostly trying to improve communication, try to give her a bit more dignity to eliminate more not in her clothes/nappies, improve her body awareness, and maybe even make potty training a bit easier in 6+ months
Very informative ❤
Great video!! Thank you. Im wondering how many diaper you went through? Although you still changed the diaper and kept her dry, do you think you still saved a number of diaper changes by doing EC? Were there times where you offer the toilet and the diaper was still clean so you just put it back on?
Hi there - yes. So many times, where I would simply put the same clean diaper back on. We used cloth diapers so the actual number of dirty diapers doing EC was much less than if we didn't do EC, but there are more "changes" (taking clothes off and offering) because of the choice to offer potty during transitions or when it seems like she needs to go or if she went. People not doing EC may not immediately change or change as often. Where I did as part of the process. So initially it is more effort, but it becomes less and less because of that initial "investment". Elba is now 20 months old and her last poop in a diaper was around 8 months (and it was in the car because I couldn't pull over on the highway). She currently only wears a diaper for nighttime sleep. So over time it becomes less and less dirty diapers.
@@carmenfourie5346 amazing! Thanks so much for the reply. Last poopy diaper at 8 months?!? Amazing. My husband is on board with EC and cloth diapering, but I’m doing the research on this one so I’m just trying to set our expectations. We both mostly work from home so I’m excited to give this a go. All the best 🤗
The way she looks at you 😍
Im in baby planning mode and youre channel is super helpful. I can completely relate to the concept of not being able to relate to others based on how I do things vs them. But it's always fun when you find that one person that gets it and you can just go nuts talking about your quirky habits that no one else gets!
Carmen I just found your channel, and it's lovely to find a fellow video creator in Canada! Gearing up for winter here too, although we're in Ontario and probably have a slightly milder winter than you guys. We don't have a garage in our current home, so organizing our front foyer at the beginning of each winter season has been KEY in us getting out every day. Loved the video!
At what stage does the chairperson gets details of the alleged charges? prior to the hearing or at the hearing?
I found the beginning confusing, we shouldn’t use past period history to predict when our period would come- but use a period tracker? Which tracks period history to predict future periods lol
I don't advocate for the use of period trackers to predict ovulation. I only recommend them in so far as they are used as a tool to log information for women to have an awareness of their cycles. Sorry about the confusion. I cover tracking in more detail in other videos.
I really enjoyed this style of video!
Great insight Carmen 👏🏾
Hi Carmen, you’re making awesome content as usual! Can you make a video about independent play and toys you purchased for Alba?
Hi Carmen, really good content! Can you make a video on vaccines you got for Alba? :) she is so adorable and thriving! Or any research you’ve done regarding vaccines
Oh Carmen, I'm so glad I came across you! Sooo many of your parenting decisions are the same as mine! The struggle is real.. people judge us and think we are constantly judging them by our decisions. It's so hard to find people from our tribe! Thank you for speaking about your parenting choices!

Why is this video not viral?? One of the most sensible and sensitive video about pregnancy. I really liked it when you said why symptome spotting is not bad as we want to enjoy the whole journey.
I appreciate all of this and honestly as a fan of medical information, knowing my own body and also a nurse I thoroughly enjoy these videos! ❤ I knew with all of my pregnancies that I was pregnant with or without symptoms because I just felt a shift and knew things were different 😊
omg yess
Very helpful thank you!
Very useful information, thank you!
Hi, is severance pay compulsory. My company has closed due to insufficient funds and 30 staff retrenched in a day with the process not followed. We dont know if we will get paid out correctly. Many thanks for all of your very informative videos.

Hi Carmen. Thank you for your Videos. If you are retrenchment and are in your notice period, then get a job externally. Are you still entitled to your severance pay?

HI CARMEN CAN YOU GIVE ADVICE FOR A CONSTRUCTIVE DISMISSAL
Sure. On my channel (look under videos and scroll back because I made it quite a while ago) is a detailed video on constructive dismissal and on my website you'll find some useful templates.
Many handy links, thanks!
Hi Carmen, well informed video, need some assistance regarding current retrenchment as per S189A. Can employer decide selection criteria for dismissal as well as redeployment (alternative) in other business units? Employer has host consultation but never gave us any opportunity to propose, who needs to go and who needs to stay and who can move to the other business units. About 30 employees been handpicked by a hiring manager without consulting with us, but we were advised to apply for job when they become available from other business units
