I would love a twin item video!! I am due with twin boys on march 13th 💙💙😅🤯🥰 I found your channel when I went searching for advice from other twin moms 💖
I have 8 and I found that buying as I need and as I go was better than stocking up. Especially diapers. Every child grows differently. The most expensive diaper you buy are the ones you don't use.
Swaddling its such an odd concept in Spain. We don't do it. I babysat when I lived in the US, so I saw it a lot and go used to it. Now whenever I tell someone from Spain about it, they all look at me with disbelieve and say: they tie their babies with a cloth? haha. I am not judging but it's funny how some things are cultural.
As a pregnant mom of 4 I can totally attest to this! 🙌🏼 you are so right!! If you want to make the burp clothes more fun, sew a cute piece of flannel receiving blanket in the middle of the cloth diaper! That’s what I did. 🐥
Love your picks and your nays are spot on. Baby towels... I hate how they won't fold & stack with other towels. You should totally do the twins video, too. My advice, as a mom of twins: 1. Buy all matching boring plain socks, cause you don't need to spend precious time matching them. Oh, and one of every "cute" pair will go missing. 2. Buy a mesh zipper laundry delicates bag to put all those socks in, so they don't clog your front loader washer drain. Or if you have a top loader, a bag keeps you from having to reach into the abyss to get all the tiny socks. 3. Clorox 2 is a life saver for the brand new white onsie that your baby pooped on, even if you forgot to pull it out of the diaper bag and treat it the moment you got home.
My boys never wore newborn any thing, they came out 3 month size in clothing. Mind you they was over / just about 9 pounds, so 😳 on the bigger size lol.
Yes agreed my first was a 7lb exactly he could fit newborn however my second was a chunk at almost 9 lbs we couldn't get newborn over her head lol good thing we brought backup size clothing to the hospital
I'm probably the only mom who loved the softness/smallness of my son's baby towels and washcloths. Especially the towels with the hood attached. As you grow in your motherhood, you realize what works for you and what doesn't. Loved the video
I need to wean my daughter out of her Love to Dream swaddles, but I keep procrastinating. She will seriously have wide open eyes and by the time I zip it up she’s asleep. Love them!
Your video was spot on! I am a mother of 4, pregnant with # 5. I have gone all out for every baby, well.. because I just love buying baby stuff. After baby 4 I gave away everything thinking we were done. So buying for # 5 I promised my husband I would go minimal this time. You have reminded me what essentials looks like. Thank you. My husband thanks you.
Glad you talked about the Ergo carrier! I’m due in 4 weeks exactly & finishing up my senior year of college. I’m going to be baby wearing to class for the last month & a half of the semester & bought an Ergo for that!
I’m 22 weeks pregnant with #7 and I have a set of twins (5 years old) I would love to see what your must haves for twins were..also baby towels and wash cloths are so pointless especially when your newborn is screaming and you’re just trying to get someone to hand you any towel because the one you thought was in the bathroom is now gone
100% agree! I had the EXACT same favorites - Copper Pearl was way better than Aden & Anais blankets. And the angel care tub is still going strong for my almost 2 year old. Baby wearing can be soooo intimidating, but practice at home with a full, happy baby for short amounts of time, until you and baby get the hang of it. I promise it's a game changer. I was afraid to make an investment on a baby carrier but I'm so glad I did! Great video!
I am here to watch Angela talking! She is so beautiful and its relaxing to watch her for me! Also learnt a lot for the future when I will have my baby!
I got lucky and I have a few friends that had boys last year. I have been gifted so many boy clothes/ baby items and I haven’t even had my baby shower yet! 🙌🏻 I’ve been putting off buying anything unless it really speaks to me until after the shower. I’m obsessed with these videos especially on early mornings where a kicking baby wakes me up. Lol
Yes yes yes on the twins video!! Almost 14 weeks pregnant with twins and feeling very “lost in the sauce” about the must haves. These are babies number 5 & 6 for us so we’re not newbies but I feel like we may need more then what we usually need for our babes.
I just gave birth to my 6th child and we homeschool as well. I've been really enjoying your videos and find myself looking to them for ideas and inspiration. Thank you!
I love these videos even though we just had our second and last baby in December! Definitely agree with the Baby Brezza formula thing! It's a lifesaver in the middle of the night when you're half asleep. Even my dad who is snobbish about not needing a lot of the newer high tech baby stuff loves it when he's watching my daughter. My best advice and what we did for our second child is to wait to buy a lot of baby stuff until your baby is here. Every baby is so different and you will save a lot of money by just making a nest egg and just waiting to see what they like. The first week all you really need are clothes, diapers/wipes, a safe place to sleep, a way to feed them and a carseat to bring them home. While we were in the hospital with our second we paid attention to if she liked being swaddled, rocked etc and which formula/bottle she liked. Then we ordered everything online and everything was there when we arrived home or shortly after. Also sign up for all the free boxes you can like target, walmart, amazon etc. You recieve samples so you're not paying money to see which diapers, bottles, pacifiers your baby likes. It will save you a lot of money in the end and you can donate whatever you end up not using from them.
Aaryn Williams mentioned that she rented her Snoo. That might be a more affordable option. Plus, you don't have to worry about what to do with it when your baby outgrows it.
PJs with mittens that can fold over we’re great for us! Also, adding to the Velcro thing- Velcro bibsreally startle my kiddo- he flinched every time he hears it!
Yes, please to the twin video! Love this-it’s so much more helpful than the videos made by new moms who have money to burn. I’m always like, Girl, I’ve got a kid in college right now, I can’t afford all that mess! 💕
You. Look. Amazing! 👏🏻 Wow! The twins are still so small, unbelievable how well you lost all the weight! You look even better than before and crazy how young and rested you look like, you have so much on your plate! Go Mama!
May I just say I love your sass you sprinkle throughout your videos. I had my first baby last year and wish I had that newborn ergo carrier and Moses basket. Definitely getting if there's a #2. Finally! Good to see SOMEBODY put the momaroo and snoo on a regret list so people consider if it will actually help their specific situation.
The nosefrida is also great for sucking stuff that they put up their nostrils or ears. But totally agree to just pass on single purpose products. I will say I still remember this awesome ducky wrap around towel I had when I was preschool/elementary school age. Used it for years.
I love your videos. Both the family vlog and here. Just makes me happy. The twins and my daughter are only a few months apart so anything you do for the twins I’m zoned in 100%.
Its crazy how you have to give a disclaimer over anything that ever involves your opinion. I would hope that we live in a world where we don't get offended if a STRANGER thinks oppositely! lol I am having baby #9 in June and I am going SUPER minimalistic this time around like never before!!! I loved this video!
I bought so many different swaddles and my son hated having his arms tied down. I wasn’t able to use any of them. I should’ve knows because every ultrasound appointment his hands were by his face. It comforts him to have his hands close to his face.
Going thru these comments everyone on their 7th 8th baby and I'm just here 10weeks wit my first 🤣 video was perf for me I love this vid saved this new mom a fortune 😍
Seriously knowledge about good products is a big reason I want a 3rd baby! It’s like by the time you figure out what’s worth the money you are done having kids (in my case)
Why don't you try to resell that giant expensive bed thing that you don't use ? There must be a parent out there that'll love to find it for a little cheaper that it is in store !
When we got our dog she was having some separation anxiety so I tossed on my moby stuck the puppy in and out the door to pick up my oldest from school got a couple strange looks but it worked
I don’t have kids but I just love watching your videos! You have such a calming, warm voice. I put your videos on when I’m working around the house and it feels like I’ve got a friend sitting on the couch chatting! I’m also really loving the way you’ve split the two channels - I still really enjoy the family videos, but also LOVING the Angie videos and following along on your journey (and decluttering at the same time!!)
Hi Angela, I now you don't know me from Adam but I am one of your new subscriber's and I am adapting two girls. I want to thank you for all the love your shereing with me It's bring me to tears that I'm going to be a full time Mom and my husband is finally ready to be a Father to our family. ❤️ I have struggled to have a baby for 12 years and two years ago a wandrful woman who is also my friend has just give me a chance to be a Mother to two sweet girl's we are so excited we can't what to bring them home thanks again. 😊
My baby girl is 3 month now, my first child.. she has SOOO many cloth, more items than I bought in the past 10 years for myself EASILY.. we got SOO much stuff from friends that already had their babys and also new stuff from family, I doubt she can even wear each item once before she will grow out of it, it`s just crazy! But then again she looks just so cute in her little outfits
We were expecting a standard/chunky baby and got our little skinned rabbit. My mum said the same thing about not stocking too many baby clothes because you can always get more. She was an hr away for the first two weeks and had to buy me a ton of long sleeve 00000 clothes which he stayed in for a month!
I actually have gone through some wipe warmers! We have always cloth diapered, so I use my wipe warmer to hold today’s wet cloth wipes. Baby bath- we got an actual tub because I hated sitting there waiting for the big tub to fill enough for the little bath positioner thing. Baby carriers- I actually hate stretchy wraps. I feel like they are way too hot and too prone to sag. I much, much prefer woven wraps. And a good woven wrap will last for the entirety of a baby’s wearing time- even into the preschool years. I do also love a woven ring sling for a tiny baby because it is just easier on me when I’m sitting and standing and using the restroom.
If you’re like me and get stressed out by wraps then get the baby k’tan! It’s so simple to use, comfortable, and versatile. I like my ergo and my lillebaby for hiking and back wearing.
I just wanted to say, I LOVED this video! I learned so many of these things with my first kiddo, her reflux was SO bad. And all the swings and bouncers and things we got (we tried hard and had many losses so we were very excited about our little rainbow baby) but we didn’t use a single one! Now pregnant again with baby number two, and watching this was the reality check I needed to not go down that swarm again! 💚 thank you!
Ahhh my gosh! This is probably my top baby video out there. Thank you for being so informative without having so much fluff we see in so many videos. Truly appreciated and I definitely got some new tips 🖤
I absolutely loved this video my youngest is 8 months old now. She was my second girl after 3 boys. I have lots of regrets hahaha but something that has always been a favorite from child number 1 is sleep sacks and receiving blankets. My biggest regret- and I didnt learn the first 5 times.... the 6th time is the charm.... I regret buying carriers.
I bought a love to dream swaddle for my baby having seen you recommend it in a previous video and I loved it! It's the best baby thing we bought and I always recommend it to my friends!
My babies are 19,17 & 13... I'm still here for it though 🤷💗 The things I see in the baby sections of stores 😩 Loorrrddd majority of it is so unnecessary if we're being honest !
Loved this 🙌🏼 I’m having my first baby and my goodness the stuff out there is overwhelming also I think a lot of influences promote things for the ‘sake’ of it. Thankyou for providing honest, informative info. You’re amazing 🤗
An other possability to make bottels would be to use a CoolTwister(only 10-15€) you just put boiling water in at the top ,formula in the bottel then the water runs through it and has the right temperature for the baby to drink.So it only takes about 2 minutes to make a bottle (including boiling the water). Maybe that can help a mom who does not want/can‘t spent much money 😊 And thank you for taking the time to speak so long and show everything😊
My absolute favorite baby blankets are Muslin, mostly Aden and Anais. I prefer a couple sleep sacks over swaddling. Honestly all 3 of babies never liked being swaddled. I love the lifefactory baby bottles. Flour sack towels are absolutely the best for using for burp rags and for using for cloth diapers. My favorite cloth diapers are Alva and applecheeks. For disposable diapers I like the honest company diapers. I loved the foldable baby bath thing can’t remember the brand, but it has mesh in it as well. You have a great list and glad you shared what works for you. 💖
Perfect timing...in my third trimester for my second pregnancy! Yes! Totally agree about the baby gadgets. When in doubt wait to see if you need it! My son was 9lbs 11oz, newborn size lasted like a week. 0-3 months is the way to go! I have to giggle because we LOVED the velcro swaddles...worked great for us! 😂 We never ended up using sleep sacks or wearable blankets ever, but people love them! Just goes to show that every baby and family is different 😊 you do you boo 😘
I'm a homeschool momma of three littles, our youngest has her first birthday next week. Can I just say that you seriously serve as my inspiration? We want a big family and adoption is def in our future, so I've been known to binge watch both of your channels. You are amazing, thank you for all of the effort you put toward your blogs and raising your kiddos! Just one question, not quite related to this vlog.. how do you keep your kids from feeling jealous and fostering such a love for each other? Dont get me wrong, my girls love each other. But we also have days of 😬🤦♀️
Oh gosh- my kids fight too! I think that’s totally normally. My sister and I were best friends and mortal enemies at times. 😂 we just always try to remind our kids that home is where we should be kind to each other and where everyone feels safe and loved.
I mean I'm 20 and I still feel like screaming every time I have to go for a shower 😂😂 Also you will definitely catch me walking around my house with the dog in a baby carrier, to get ready to become a parent 😂😂
My due date is in three weeks and this is fantastic info! I do wish I saw this before ordering the Velcro swaddles/baby straightjackets 😅 Love your sense of humor.
You might end up liking the Velcro swaddles you never know. I loved mine and my babies didn't get out of them, so if you already have them just try them they might work for you.
Loved everything about this video. The sarcasm throughout was 👌On. Point. What we did for our son was beg/borrow/steal the bigger expensive stuff to see if it worked for him (a lot of it didnt including the baby swing), and buy as little as possible. We regretted that in some areas, ie cheaping out on the baby bassinet and just trying to use the multilevel pack n play, and learned from those mistakes. Next baby we will definitely be getting some kind of more comfy/snuggly sleeper for them. For the most part though, I am happy we didnt waste a ton of money on the most expensive stroller/toys/clothes/etc
I dont know exactly what about this video felt kinda like you are a news anchor woman? Or on a commercial. The auto is different the angles and outfit was very professional and straight forward! Not bad but I definitely noticed the differences!
Angela: "Would you be interested if I made a video about..."
Me: YES.
💗💗💗
Same
Yes please I have 19 month boy girl twins
I would love a twin item video!! I am due with twin boys on march 13th 💙💙😅🤯🥰 I found your channel when I went searching for advice from other twin moms 💖
My clothing rule is 5 outfits per size 3 sleepers per size. It has always helped me keep things simple and stress free.
This woman be raising 8 babies, amazing. I’ve subscribed...
I have 8 and I found that buying as I need and as I go was better than stocking up. Especially diapers. Every child grows differently. The most expensive diaper you buy are the ones you don't use.
Swaddling its such an odd concept in Spain. We don't do it. I babysat when I lived in the US, so I saw it a lot and go used to it. Now whenever I tell someone from Spain about it, they all look at me with disbelieve and say: they tie their babies with a cloth? haha. I am not judging but it's funny how some things are cultural.
“I just put a sock on that fool’s hand”
I’m dead. Deceased. 😂
Bailey Carter I laughed at that too! 🤣
About newborn clothes: they usually don't get too much wear and tear, babies don't live in them for too long, so they are perfect to find thrifted!
I love the divine intervention with Benjamin’s second basket 🧺
Not even a mom yet, but a nanny and have worked in children’s homes, and love these videos. love them
28 weeks today and 18. I’m finishing up my senior year of high school and I’ve been feeling quite overwhelmed lol so this helped a ton!
As a pregnant mom of 4 I can totally attest to this! 🙌🏼 you are so right!!
If you want to make the burp clothes more fun, sew a cute piece of flannel receiving blanket in the middle of the cloth diaper! That’s what I did. 🐥
Love your picks and your nays are spot on. Baby towels... I hate how they won't fold & stack with other towels. You should totally do the twins video, too.
My advice, as a mom of twins:
1. Buy all matching boring plain socks, cause you don't need to spend precious time matching them. Oh, and one of every "cute" pair will go missing.
2. Buy a mesh zipper laundry delicates bag to put all those socks in, so they don't clog your front loader washer drain. Or if you have a top loader, a bag keeps you from having to reach into the abyss to get all the tiny socks.
3. Clorox 2 is a life saver for the brand new white onsie that your baby pooped on, even if you forgot to pull it out of the diaper bag and treat it the moment you got home.
Buy the grow socks I had 3 kids aged 5, 3 and 1 all in the same size
My boys never wore newborn any thing, they came out 3 month size in clothing.
Mind you they was over / just about 9 pounds, so 😳 on the bigger size lol.
No Longer Posting Videos Do To Our Safety same!
My first was 8.4, my second was 9.8, and my 3 was 7.11. My youngest was the only one to wear newborn...but for only a week lol
Yes agreed my first was a 7lb exactly he could fit newborn however my second was a chunk at almost 9 lbs we couldn't get newborn over her head lol good thing we brought backup size clothing to the hospital
I was 11lbs when I was born rip my mum I guess lmao
I love how you don’t see color as a problem !💯✊🏽🥰❤️🙏🏾 glad there are people like you in this world! Your kids are beautiful ❤️🥰😘🙏🏾 God is Good🙏🏾💯🥰
The diaper inserts are called flour sack towels! They work sooo well as burp rags! We also have the same baby tub and it's great!
Jess F oh yes I bought them in the kitchen area at Walmart
Jess F those are the Gerber prefolds! We used to use fsts in our cloth diapers though
Please do a video about favs and regrets for the twins!! ❤
I'm probably the only mom who loved the softness/smallness of my son's baby towels and washcloths. Especially the towels with the hood attached. As you grow in your motherhood, you realize what works for you and what doesn't. Loved the video
Really enjoyed the style of this video. Really watchable. Agree with your advice too. I have a 3 month old. And I never learn
So great you used the changing basket “flat basket” as a place for him to get some tummy time in . I wouldn’t think to use for that.
I need to wean my daughter out of her Love to Dream swaddles, but I keep procrastinating. She will seriously have wide open eyes and by the time I zip it up she’s asleep. Love them!
Your video was spot on! I am a mother of 4, pregnant with # 5. I have gone all out for every baby, well.. because I just love buying baby stuff. After baby 4 I gave away everything thinking we were done. So buying for # 5 I promised my husband I would go minimal this time. You have reminded me what essentials looks like. Thank you. My husband thanks you.
Glad you talked about the Ergo carrier! I’m due in 4 weeks exactly & finishing up my senior year of college. I’m going to be baby wearing to class for the last month & a half of the semester & bought an Ergo for that!
Your bath story cracked me up! We have 5 kids 7 and under, so bathtime is also more of an assembly line vs recreation situation 😅
“I just put a sock on that fool’s hand” I freaking love her 😭😭😭
I’m 22 weeks pregnant with #7 and I have a set of twins (5 years old) I would love to see what your must haves for twins were..also baby towels and wash cloths are so pointless especially when your newborn is screaming and you’re just trying to get someone to hand you any towel because the one you thought was in the bathroom is now gone
I LOVE all your fun comments, analogy, and goofiness. 😍 A breath of fresh air and makes me smile. 😊
The zip up swaddles SAVED me with our newborn twins we fostered! They are my FAV product!
My daughter is now 7 weeks and I’m glad you shared this because I love your videos!
100% agree! I had the EXACT same favorites - Copper Pearl was way better than Aden & Anais blankets. And the angel care tub is still going strong for my almost 2 year old. Baby wearing can be soooo intimidating, but practice at home with a full, happy baby for short amounts of time, until you and baby get the hang of it. I promise it's a game changer. I was afraid to make an investment on a baby carrier but I'm so glad I did! Great video!
Its funny how my babies are 15 and 16 and factory is closed lol!! But i still watched every bit of this video ! :)
That's what I'm say'n 😂😂 Mine are 19,17&13... Yet here I am 🤷🙌
Twin vids is what brought me to you when we found out we were expecting. All the twin content please!
I am here to watch Angela talking! She is so beautiful and its relaxing to watch her for me! Also learnt a lot for the future when I will have my baby!
My 3rd baby is due in July and I have winged it with my other two and I'm wanting to be a bit more put together with this one. Lol
Winging it totally works 💗
I got lucky and I have a few friends that had boys last year. I have been gifted so many boy clothes/ baby items and I haven’t even had my baby shower yet! 🙌🏻 I’ve been putting off buying anything unless it really speaks to me until after the shower. I’m obsessed with these videos especially on early mornings where a kicking baby wakes me up. Lol
Due with #4 in the summer and things have changed so much since I last had a baby (7 years ago!) Thanks for this video
I’m adopting too and so grateful for this info! Thanks! :)
Yes yes yes on the twins video!! Almost 14 weeks pregnant with twins and feeling very “lost in the sauce” about the must haves. These are babies number 5 & 6 for us so we’re not newbies but I feel like we may need more then what we usually need for our babes.
I just gave birth to my 6th child and we homeschool as well. I've been really enjoying your videos and find myself looking to them for ideas and inspiration. Thank you!
I was just looking into the design dua Moses baskets! I love the look of them. That little shorter one is actually a changing basket.
I love these videos even though we just had our second and last baby in December! Definitely agree with the Baby Brezza formula thing! It's a lifesaver in the middle of the night when you're half asleep. Even my dad who is snobbish about not needing a lot of the newer high tech baby stuff loves it when he's watching my daughter.
My best advice and what we did for our second child is to wait to buy a lot of baby stuff until your baby is here. Every baby is so different and you will save a lot of money by just making a nest egg and just waiting to see what they like.

It will save you a lot of money in the end and you can donate whatever you end up not using from them.
My baby essentials are ordered at the Amazon DEFONO store, it's cheap and I love them
Angie you are my absolute favorite youtuber to watch because you are both beautiful and easy to watch while remaining totally relatable ❤️
Well gosh- what a kind thing to say 💗
I completely love velcro swaddles. They've worked way better for my kids than regular swaddles.
Agree on the bathtub though!
Aaryn Williams mentioned that she rented her Snoo. That might be a more affordable option. Plus, you don't have to worry about what to do with it when your baby outgrows it.
I’ve watched a few of these now but when you said how much experience you’ve had with babies I am SUPER PUMPED FOR THIS. Definitely subscribed now👏🏻👏🏻
I just wanna know how you can have such a beautiful clean home with 8 kids!!!!!!!
PJs with mittens that can fold over we’re great for us! Also, adding to the Velcro thing- Velcro bibsreally startle my kiddo- he flinched every time he hears it!
Yes, please to the twin video! Love this-it’s so much more helpful than the videos made by new moms who have money to burn. I’m always like, Girl, I’ve got a kid in college right now, I can’t afford all that mess! 💕
Please make a twin must haves video! I am 32 weeks with fraternal twin girls. Love your family and your videos!!!
I also have a twin baby, my baby essentials are ordered at the Amazon DEFONO store, it's cheap and I love them
I’m expecting twins in June and would love a twin version of this video!
You. Look. Amazing! 👏🏻 Wow! The twins are still so small, unbelievable how well you lost all the weight! You look even better than before and crazy how young and rested you look like, you have so much on your plate! Go Mama!
May I just say I love your sass you sprinkle throughout your videos.
I had my first baby last year and wish I had that newborn ergo carrier and Moses basket. Definitely getting if there's a #2.
Finally! Good to see SOMEBODY put the momaroo and snoo on a regret list so people consider if it will actually help their specific situation.
The nosefrida is also great for sucking stuff that they put up their nostrils or ears. But totally agree to just pass on single purpose products.
I will say I still remember this awesome ducky wrap around towel I had when I was preschool/elementary school age. Used it for years.
Even as a second time mom, this video is SO HELPFUL. Thank you so much for sharing this video!
I keep hearing negative reviews on the Mama Roo. I'm feeling very thankful for these types of videos.
Please make a twins video! I just found out I’m having twin girls and need all of the tips and advice you can share! 💕
I love your videos. Both the family vlog and here. Just makes me happy. The twins and my daughter are only a few months apart so anything you do for the twins I’m zoned in 100%.
oh, Angie!
I laugh so hard when I watch you. I love your humour and personality!
Its crazy how you have to give a disclaimer over anything that ever involves your opinion. I would hope that we live in a world where we don't get offended if a STRANGER thinks oppositely! lol
I am having baby #9 in June and I am going SUPER minimalistic this time around like never before!!! I loved this video!

The love to dream swaddles were a life saver for my twin boys! Hands down would recommend them to everyone lol

As a new twin mama I’d love a video! Your pregnancy videos with twins were a lifesaver
I would love to see a must-haves and regrets version for twins!! Then I can be prepared if I ever have twins 🤣
Baby Brezza is an absolute lifesaver!
I actually have gone through some wipe warmers! We have always cloth diapered, so I use my wipe warmer to hold today’s wet cloth wipes.
Baby bath- we got an actual tub because I hated sitting there waiting for the big tub to fill enough for the little bath positioner thing.
Baby carriers- I actually hate stretchy wraps. I feel like they are way too hot and too prone to sag. I much, much prefer woven wraps. And a good woven wrap will last for the entirety of a baby’s wearing time- even into the preschool years. I do also love a woven ring sling for a tiny baby because it is just easier on me when I’m sitting and standing and using the restroom.
If you’re like me and get stressed out by wraps then get the baby k’tan! It’s so simple to use, comfortable, and versatile. I like my ergo and my lillebaby for hiking and back wearing.
Wooh Love to Dream is an Australian company! I wish I’d skipped swaddles all together and gone straight to the Love to Dreams.
I just wanted to say, I LOVED this video! I learned so many of these things with my first kiddo, her reflux was SO bad. And all the swings and bouncers and things we got (we tried hard and had many losses so we were very excited about our little rainbow baby) but we didn’t use a single one! Now pregnant again with baby number two, and watching this was the reality check I needed to not go down that swarm again! 💚 thank you!
We’re very close to being active with our adoption agency, I’ve watched so many of these videos, but I really loved yours!
Wow. 8 kids! You're amazing.
I am 17. I don’t plan on having kids in the next 10 yrs. yet I’m watching this and fully enjoy it lmao
I love how you look , I love white and your make up is so natural and you look fresh and crisp 💕💕💕
YES! Swaddles with zippers are the best! I've tried the velcro and it just never worked, they always escaped!
Size 2 is generally where kids stay for a while so if you wanna do the baby fashion show go size 2
Ahhh my gosh! This is probably my top baby video out there. Thank you for being so informative without having so much fluff we see in so many videos. Truly appreciated and I definitely got some new tips 🖤
I absolutely loved this video my youngest is 8 months old now. She was my second girl after 3 boys. I have lots of regrets hahaha but something that has always been a favorite from child number 1 is sleep sacks and receiving blankets.
My biggest regret- and I didnt learn the first 5 times.... the 6th time is the charm.... I regret buying carriers.
Isn’t it funny how some people’s must haves are other people regrets 😂
Pregnant with kid 4 and totally agree with this stuff. We did not use formula enough for a machine, so I will skip that. Everything else so useful.
I bought a love to dream swaddle for my baby having seen you recommend it in a previous video and I loved it! It's the best baby thing we bought and I always recommend it to my friends!
Yes! Such a life saver!
My babies are 19,17 & 13... I'm still here for it though 🤷💗
The things I see in the baby sections of stores 😩 Loorrrddd majority of it is so unnecessary if we're being honest !
I absolutely love your personality in this video! So funny!
We used the Halo Sleep Sack and it’s Velcro and we loved it!!!!
Loved this 🙌🏼 I’m having my first baby and my goodness the stuff out there is overwhelming also I think a lot of influences promote things for the ‘sake’ of it. Thankyou for providing honest, informative info. You’re amazing 🤗
Wow girl I’m a soon to be grandmother and I have learned a lot so thank you 🙏😊. I’ll be watching more videos 👍
Jennifer Corso....New Grandma too congratulations! Great that we can update our skills .
An other possability to make bottels would be to use a CoolTwister(only 10-15€) you just put boiling water in at the top ,formula in the bottel then the water runs through it and has the right temperature for the baby to drink.So it only takes about 2 minutes to make a bottle (including boiling the water).
Maybe that can help a mom who does not want/can‘t spent much money 😊
And thank you for taking the time to speak so long and show everything😊
My absolute favorite baby blankets are Muslin, mostly Aden and Anais. I prefer a couple sleep sacks over swaddling. Honestly all 3 of babies never liked being swaddled. I love the lifefactory baby bottles. Flour sack towels are absolutely the best for using for burp rags and for using for cloth diapers. My favorite cloth diapers are Alva and applecheeks. For disposable diapers I like the honest company diapers. I loved the foldable baby bath thing can’t remember the brand, but it has mesh in it as well. You have a great list and glad you shared what works for you. 💖
Perfect timing...in my third trimester for my second pregnancy! Yes! Totally agree about the baby gadgets. When in doubt wait to see if you need it! My son was 9lbs 11oz, newborn size lasted like a week. 0-3 months is the way to go! I have to giggle because we LOVED the velcro swaddles...worked great for us! 😂 We never ended up using sleep sacks or wearable blankets ever, but people love them! Just goes to show that every baby and family is different 😊 you do you boo 😘
I'm a homeschool momma of three littles, our youngest has her first birthday next week. Can I just say that you seriously serve as my inspiration? We want a big family and adoption is def in our future, so I've been known to binge watch both of your channels. You are amazing, thank you for all of the effort you put toward your blogs and raising your kiddos! Just one question, not quite related to this vlog.. how do you keep your kids from feeling jealous and fostering such a love for each other? Dont get me wrong, my girls love each other. But we also have days of 😬🤦♀️
Oh gosh- my kids fight too! I think that’s totally normally. My sister and I were best friends and mortal enemies at times. 😂 we just always try to remind our kids that home is where we should be kind to each other and where everyone feels safe and loved.
I mean I'm 20 and I still feel like screaming every time I have to go for a shower 😂😂 Also you will definitely catch me walking around my house with the dog in a baby carrier, to get ready to become a parent 😂😂
My due date is in three weeks and this is fantastic info! I do wish I saw this before ordering the Velcro swaddles/baby straightjackets 😅
Love your sense of humor.
You might end up liking the Velcro swaddles you never know. I loved mine and my babies didn't get out of them, so if you already have them just try them they might work for you.
I liked my Velcro swaddles. You might end up loving them. Give them a try. ;)
Loved everything about this video. The sarcasm throughout was 👌On. Point. What we did for our son was beg/borrow/steal the bigger expensive stuff to see if it worked for him (a lot of it didnt including the baby swing), and buy as little as possible. We regretted that in some areas, ie cheaping out on the baby bassinet and just trying to use the multilevel pack n play, and learned from those mistakes. Next baby we will definitely be getting some kind of more comfy/snuggly sleeper for them. For the most part though, I am happy we didnt waste a ton of money on the most expensive stroller/toys/clothes/etc
I dont know exactly what about this video felt kinda like you are a news anchor woman? Or on a commercial. The auto is different the angles and outfit was very professional and straight forward! Not bad but I definitely noticed the differences!
I put my cat in my boba wrap to practice while I was pregnant 🤣 she actually loved it and fell asleep!
Can you do a baby registry must haves?? Not just for babies, but fun to toddlers too!
I was planning to do a toddler favorites too- activities and toys etc. 😊
Yes please!!
