As a med scientist, thank you on behalf of the entire medical community for finding alternatives to antibiotics. The world has become so accustomed to relying on them to treat every infection to the point where we're going to have some seriously nasty resistant bacteria in the near future. The less you can take, the better for everyone! Also I am 9 weeks 4 days today, second pregnancy, second baby :)
Can I just say Im 17 and you are such an amazing role model for me! There aren't many people like out there who are so cool. You don't hide your faith and I really admire that. So thank you for being the role model and inspiration that you are for me. I always get so excited when any of your videos and vlogs come out!
It is just so amazing how a baby can grow from the size of a poppy seed to an asparagus in just months. God's creation and the way he designed everything is so amazing.
people say that when you're pregnant with a girl, they take away from the mothers beauty, but that's not the case with Natalie! how is she so gorgeous all the time?
yay for young living! I've used them for 10 years. I've tried so many brands over the years and always have gone back to YL. I've NEVER needed antibiotics for mastitis and have had it at least 5x.
i was pregnant with twin identical boys when you were pregnant with your boys and now i am pregnant with a baby girl and am at 29 weeks :) what a co-incidence ! congratulations to you!
I absolutely love watching these updates! I'm a little behind you, 28 weeks 3 days with a little boy! My biggest symptoms the past two weeks have been an ongoing battle with the Flu! I've been searching all over for natural remedies because taking anything in pregnancy really makes me uneasy. So happy you were able to cure your mastitis naturally! That's amazing!!
Wow our due dates are only a couple days apart! My symptoms are mainly fatigue, and back pain. Baby is getting big and kicking all the way up to my ribs lately. My belly is growing behind on the growth chart and my doctors are concerned that my little one could be swallowing too much of the amniotic fluid. I have a doctor's appointment to get another ultrasound in a few days to be sure. I'm praying for the best, but during my wait your videos really make my day (: Thank You! & congratulations on your bundle of joy!
Mastitis is so so awful. I'm glad you're feeling better! I think I used colloidal silver (approved by doctor) to cure mine, amongst other things when I was nursing a few years back.
I'll be 30 weeks on Monday and my little guy reacts to light the same way! He is incredibly active, especially when I'm laying down, but if I pull up my shirt he stops moving. :)
I am 10 weeks behind you! It's such an exhausting but rewarding experience. I've also been making pregnancy updates if anyone is interested in checking them out! Loving your hair this week Natalie xx
I am just a bit behind you at 30 weeks today! FT mom expecting twins. Heartburn is picking up! I stopped gaining weight though, for 2 weeks now, which is strange. I'm +41 lbs but was expecting to be close to 45 by now. Have a doc appt/ultrasound Thursday, so will check growth then. Congrats to u!
Stephanie A Sometimes, even while pregnant with twins, you can go a couple weeks without gaining weight! Would be more worrisome, if you hadn't already gained such a good amount of weight! If I were you, I really wouldn't worry too much. Plus, its not good for the babies, when mommy is worried, anxious, and stressed. Sending you and your babies lots of prayers, that all is ok, and all of you are healthy! =D
Stephanie A I'm not preggo with twins (this time, lol), but I've had plenty of weeks where I haven't gained weight or even lost a little. I think it's our body's way of regulating healthy weight gain during pregnancy. As long as it's not drastic I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Oh PLEASE, I BEG YOU, do a video or two on YL EO! My kids have been SO SICK this season and my anxiety has been through the roof!!! I just discovered thieves but there is SO MUCH information out there, I feel like it's too much (considering how stressed I've been over all this). I love your vlogs and discovered this channel! I feel like I trust your experiences and what worked for you if you would please take this in to consideration🙏🏻🙏🏻
Jazzy 79 actually I literally JUST put the Thieves oil on their feet two nights in a row and my son's fever broke the first night (only 8 hours with a fever and flu!) With this flu, fevers have been coming back and his did the next day..so last night I did the same thing and it broke again (I mean, full on bed soaking sweat). This is the "normal pattern" this strand has been making HOWEVER it has seemed to take a 6-7 day time frame on most people!! Do they work that fast?? Some people swear the oils can work "miracles" for lack of a better word. Also, I am looking for a diffuser that I really want (haven't actually found "it" yet) and I want to start diffusing Theives in our rooms during cold and flu season from now on. I have had several people try to sell me YL and another brand or two, but I'm mostly put off by the "pressure" to buy and more interested and influenced in hearing actual real and personal stories so that it is more "my choice" as I am not easily convinced by people who usually sell products as income, of that makes sense.
85michellemybelle Okay, I completely understand! I love YL Essential Oils, and I know a ton of people, who use them as well! Since you're not one, who is sold on a product easily, especially when the person selling the product, is making money off of what they sell, why don't you go to YL website, and see if you're able to try a trial box. I'm not sure if it costs money, but I know the company sends out trial boxes, with an assortment of different oils. There are several companies nowadays, who sell Essential Oils, so I know where you're coming from. The biggest thing, you need to watch out for is; purchasing Essential Oils, that are not 100% natural. That's why, when I purchase them, I always buy the 100% Organic All Natural Essential Oils. Those are thee safest to use on or for children and are safe for pets, as well! As far as, a diffuser, there are so many to choose from, and after speaking to a few friends, I chose to skip on purchasing a diffuser, and instead, bought a warm mist humidifier. Works a lot like a diffuser, but cheaper, and you can use it, with or without the oils. You can also, use a cool mist humidifier, add essential oils, put it in your kids bedroom, and run it all night! You can run it all day as well, if you're home. Are you the type of person and mommy, who doesn't like to give your children Children's Tylenol or Children's Advil, Children's Benadryl, or any type of pain reliever or antihistamines?
Jazzy 79 thank you so much! I have read not to put the oils in a cool mist humidifier that doesn't specifically state that you can with that particular humidifier-I was wondering why not (I have googled and searched and can't find an exact reason). I run humidifiers in their rooms and I noticed with some essential oil diffusers run just the same (i.e. Drop a few drops into the water, etc). I would honestly rather just do that with our current humidifier than buy a new one just because it says "essential oils" on the box, you know? I do not mind the Tylenol and ibuprofen while I am trying to do research but of course I'd love to omit them if essential oils will replace them! I actually love YL website as it is so informative! I will definitely look at the trial boxes and see if they're available, thank you!
I'm so happy you have beat the mastitis! I'm sorry if my comment regarding your breastmilk/breastfeeding disclaimer on your last update was offensive. I just have had the worst time breastfeeding because of the lack of support/normalization.
I too, am 31 weeks prego, love ur channel, and also love essential oils, i use plant therapy brand but love making DIYs with them :) we decided not to find out babys gender so the anticipation is killing us ♡ only side effect i can complain about is having no energy lol!
I thought the bird chirping was nice haha. I am an avid youngliving user as well. so glad you got relief without antibiotics. I work at an urgent care and the doc is shocked when I cured my bronchitis without antibiotics and significantly quicker.
HI I'm new here and I have been watching both of your channels today. I have boy girl twins that are now 12, I also have two older boys. I love that I found you and look forward to watching your family. I had mastitis after my first son, mine turned into a blood infection and I ended up in the hospital :(.
So glad everything is great with your baby girl! Can't believe how far on you are, your bump is looking gorgeous!! My due date is tomorrow with my baby girl, can't believe I'll get to meet her soon!! 💖💖
We haven't had a situation where they worked for antibiotics but my son kept getting a yeast infection between his neck, chin, and chest when he was about 5-6 months old. We did 2 weeks of oral and cream antifungal and it did nothing! The doctor then started to think maybe it was infected and wanted to start antibiotics. I started searching for natural remedies. I used coconut oil mixed with lavender and tea tree. It was super diluted but within 48 hours it was almost completely gone. I sent pictures of before and after and I think the nurse practitioner was completely shocked. When the office staff called for a follow up and I told them what I did they wanted pictures. Their jaw about dropped to the floor! I was so mad I even let them talk me into all the creams and antifungal! Thank goodness I didn't let them talk me into antibiotics which can make yeast even worse!
I used Progessence from YL for the first trimester because my progesterone was low. And a few months ago I cured my pinkeye with breastmilk! Yay for no drugs!
Hey Natalie, I love that you have found ways to avoid antibiotics! I also struggle with different medications and try to avoid antibiotics if I can! I was wondering what type of contraception you used or plan to use after baby girl? I have had issues with mood swings and was wondering if you found one you like best? I realize this is a personal question and if you don't feel comfortable please don't worry about it! I love your channel and all of your updates! Thanks so much for giving us all such a wonderful channel!
I'm 12 weeks and I'm so ready to find out what I'm having. I have a little boy already so I hope I get a girl this time but I'm happy regardless. I can't wait to see what you pick out for her and to know her name. If I have a girl her name will be Talia.
I will be 30 weeks on Tuesday. I had nausea and headaches this week. Realized it's the prenatal vitamins I've been taking that made me nauseous. My doctor actually found something else wrong with me but no symptoms so I'm on medicine for a week lol. But baby is doing just fine it didn't affect him.
Hi Natalie, I saw in your baby register that you would like to have cloth diapers. Did you use them with the boys or you just want to try? would you talk about that in the video or share your experience? That would be helpful. Or generally, after pregnancy series, you could do baby caring series :-) THANK YOU FOR SHARING :-)
I actually started using essential oils a year or so ago for the same reason: I don't do we'll with antibiotics. The side effects of antibiotics were often worse than whatever was ailing me!
Recently found your channel and love it :) I have three kiddos of my own and love essential oils too. I've never heard of getting mastitis during pregnancy! I only struggled with that once during nursing. Or maybe your still nursing your twins? Great job mama!
31 weeks today. I am so thankful for getting over the flu. But I've been having a lot of backaches and my sinuses are horrible some days I can breathe and some I can't lol but I'm starting to feel more tired lately we just closed the deal on our new home but it needs to be fixed up a little. Hopefully these weeks go by fast I'm so done with this pregnancy
i'm 31 weeks + 4 days, and i'm still strugeling with nausea, have had it this entire pregnancy. :( i'm still down 11 pounds from m startweight, but baby is doing great :) heartburn is picking up, wich isn't helping on the nausea.. but i'll manage :P can't wait to meet her!
can you do an update on your toddlers preschool, and how do you preschool and be pregnant at the same time. needing some advice on starting my 2years old son doing some home preschool
That information is actually very useful!! I also have mixed a few things with herbs and EO. I had a blister that got infected and I successfully cleared it with calendula/rose poultices.
Thank you so much for the information!!! Im 34 weeks pregnant..The dr didnt diagnosis me with mastitis, but i know that is what i have. I was just told to massage and let the milk leak. Im afraid if i do that i will continue leaking or possibly not produce . I have not has fevers (thank god) . Did you put the warm compresses directly on the nipple aswell?
@@NatalieBennett Thank you for replying. I seen a labor and delivery Dr. yesterday (sadly, ive never seen just 1 Dr due to this pandemic). It seemed like she didn't believe this was mastitis because im pregnant, but I have mastitis when my son was 5 months old. I was able to relieve it with warm compresses and pumping, unfortunately i can't pump since im pregnant. I will keep on with the warm compresses until it heals. Thanks agian for the video. 🙏
Natalie Bennett You're definitely, all baby! I love your cute little baby bump. Its crazy, when you tone up your belly and have a "four-pack" or "six-pack" and become pregnant, and you can still see your muscular and toned tummy, even at 8 and 9 months pregnant. I honestly believe, after you give birth, your body is going to bounce back pretty quickly. And, after working out for a few months (when you're able to) you'll be all toned and healthy again. I'm so happy to hear, that you were able to cure your mastitis with homeremedies, especially essential oils. I'm a big believer in 100% organic essential oils for a number of illnesses, colds, infections, etc.! There are definitely, times when you need antibiotics, but if you can try homeremedies first, at least, for a few days, to see if they work, instead of taking antibiotics, its much better for your gut and your overall health. I've cured bladder infections, UTI's, yeast infections, rashes, head colds, sinus infections, migraines, nausea and vomiting(during pregnancy and when having the flu or stomach bug) stomach aches/gassy and bloated stomach, muscle pains and spasms, insomnia, fatigue, etc., ALL with homeremedies and or 100% Organic Essential Oils. It is truly and utterly amazing, all of the natural remedies, that are out there and accessible, but most people, choose to go in to see their Dr, and are prescribed antibiotics and other medications, which end up killing a lot of good bacteria in their bodies, not intentionally meaning to, but that's exactly, what antibiotics do when they're taken.
Aloha Natalie! I'm currently 31 weeks right now and I'm wondering, did you get any vaccine shots during your pregnancy? Also did you choose to vaccinate your babies? I'm kind of on the fence about it and was wondering your opinion on that.
+Melissa Giraldo I encourage you to do your own research and listen to both sides of the issue. We have chosen, however, to never share our stance on the issue for the privacy and peace of our family. :-)
I will defiantly have to remember this video! Just in case I experience this, I am 6 1/2 weeks pregnant ...again! Baby number 2, pregnancy #5 & antibiotics and I do not mix well... you should make a little video on how you use essential oils during pregnancy, I would like to get into them more! Cannot wait to see the little baby girl haul! xo
I'm so happy you avoided the dreaded antibiotics! We feel similarly about them. I haven't taken any in years, my husband hasn't in even longer, and our boys have only ever had them once each in their 5 & 7 years of life. We use oils and healthy living to avoid them.
I know placenta encapsulation isn't for everyone, just curious as to what you thought about it. Also, are you going to cloth diaper? I started cloth diapering my youngest and will be this next baby do about the same time you are.
What's your thoughts on people smoking weed? Also have you got my letter? I sent a letter to you, then you did a mail video but I don't think that my letter was in there... Your a goal to me :) I've watched your videos from day one haha on both channels :)
Omg!!!! U seem to have really popped within the last week....as gorgeous as u look..we seem to be very tired around the eyes ....hope u are resting enough..take care

yay for young living! I've used them for 10 years. I've tried so many brands over the years and always have gone back to YL. I've NEVER needed antibiotics for mastitis and have had it at least 5x.
You look gorgeous Natalie! I'm so happy you cured the mastitis without taking antibiotics, it's so much better !! Can't wait to see baby girl ❤️

Have you ever tried Essential Oils?

So glad you are feeling better! And yay for no mastitis!
I'm so happy you have beat the mastitis! I'm sorry if my comment regarding your breastmilk/breastfeeding disclaimer on your last update was offensive. I just have had the worst time breastfeeding because of the lack of support/normalization.
Also, your hair looks amazing in this video!! I love the loose curl look. Congrats again on your baby girl ❤️
Who would put a thumbs down?? Unbelievable!! x

Just love your videos. Do you plan to have more children after this baby ? You're a natural mommy
Hey Natalie,
I love that you have found ways to avoid antibiotics! I also struggle with different medications and try to avoid antibiotics if I can!
I was wondering what type of contraception you used or plan to use after baby girl? I have had issues with mood swings and was wondering if you found one you like best?

My cousin just had twin girls at 28 weeks pregnant, so I can imagime what your little one looks like and she's probably bigger!
Hi Natalie 😊
Do you dilute the oils with anything before applying to the skin?
Thank you... Virginia
You look amazing! I'm glad your pregnancy is going well. I'm going to look into essential oils, I've never liked taking pain killers etc
Hi Natalie, I saw in your baby register that you would like to have cloth diapers. Did you use them with the boys or you just want to try? would you talk about that in the video or share your experience? That would be helpful. Or generally, after pregnancy series, you could do baby caring series :-) THANK YOU FOR SHARING :-)
How did you get mastitis while pregnant?
How eventful was your pregnancy with the boy's?
I actually started using essential oils a year or so ago for the same reason: I don't do we'll with antibiotics. The side effects of antibiotics were often worse than whatever was ailing me!

Natalie Bennett You're definitely, all baby! I love your cute little baby bump. Its crazy, when you tone up your belly and have a "four-pack" or "six-pack" and become pregnant, and you can still see your muscular and toned tummy, even at 8 and 9 months pregnant.
I honestly believe, after you give birth, your body is going to bounce back pretty quickly. And, after working out for a few months
(when you're able to) you'll be all toned and healthy again.
I'm so happy to hear, that you were able to cure your mastitis with homeremedies, especially essential oils.
I'm a big believer in 100% organic essential oils for a number of illnesses, colds, infections, etc.!
There are definitely, times when you need antibiotics, but if you can try homeremedies first, at least, for a few days, to see if they work, instead of taking antibiotics, its much better for your gut and your overall health.
I've cured bladder infections, UTI's, yeast infections, rashes, head colds, sinus infections, migraines, nausea and vomiting(during pregnancy and when having the flu or stomach bug) stomach aches/gassy and bloated stomach, muscle pains and spasms, insomnia, fatigue, etc., ALL with homeremedies and or 100% Organic Essential Oils.
It is truly and utterly amazing, all of the natural remedies, that are out there and accessible, but most people, choose to go in to see their Dr, and are prescribed antibiotics and other medications, which end up killing a lot of good bacteria in their bodies, not intentionally meaning to, but that's exactly, what antibiotics do when they're taken.
I'm 31 weeks today with baby girl due 11/24/20

You look so great! I hope I look half this good when I am 31 weeks!!! I am 11 no so only time will tell!
I’m 31 and holy moly my only symptom is that I just find myself I don’t want food I want JUNKKKK!!!
Aloha Natalie! I'm currently 31 weeks right now and I'm wondering, did you get any vaccine shots during your pregnancy? Also did you choose to vaccinate your babies?
I'm kind of on the fence about it and was wondering your opinion on that.
+Melissa Giraldo I encourage you to do your own research and listen to both sides of the issue. We have chosen, however, to never share our stance on the issue for the privacy and peace of our family. :-)
I will defiantly have to remember this video!
Just in case I experience this, I am 6 1/2 weeks pregnant ...again!
Baby number 2, pregnancy #5 & antibiotics and I do not mix well... you should make a little video on how you use essential oils during pregnancy, I would like to get into them more! Cannot wait to see the little baby girl haul!
xo
yaaay for YLEO!!

Can u start doing throw back Thursday on your vlogging channel? xx
I'm so happy you avoided the dreaded antibiotics! We feel similarly about them. I haven't taken any in years, my husband hasn't in even longer, and our boys have only ever had them once each in their 5 & 7 years of life. We use oils and healthy living to avoid them.
What is your Instagram it say the link is broken or the account was deleted
cabbage leaves is the best cure for mastitis
Are you going to be able to do a vaginal birth this time? Will you be doing placenta encapsulation?
I know placenta encapsulation isn't for everyone, just curious as to what you thought about it. Also, are you going to cloth diaper? I started cloth diapering my youngest and will be this next baby do about the same time you are.
