I wish there were more men like Alessio in this world. You are the sweetest couple and will no doubt be wonderful parents.
You gotta think, this baby might be his only one.
They are wonderful people and he is so kind! ❤ The world needs more people like them.
There are. They live in Europe
@josefinasoderholm6488 they don't... a European here ..
There are, choose better
Storing the milk also helps Fathers feed babies with a bottle! Have fun, Allessio!
Especially now you can print a mask that looks like mom for babies that are mommy monsters and only want mommy!
Jessi looks great, Truly glowing!
Thank you so much! ❤️
She is! It’s so beautiful!
You Both are glowing! 😍❤
Especially considering the baby is like "No food for you today mom!"
@ThePasinisabbiamo tutte quelle cose Alessio caro 😊. Jessi è bellissima e non hai idea quanto sono felice per voi 🥰
I had to watch Alessio say "It picks out d'burgers" at least 10 times! That was so cute
You look radiant , Jessi!!! Pregnancy looks gorgeous on you!!! I hope those new meds are finally getting some results!! ❤❤❤
How can you ever be in a bad mood after watching these two sweeties. 🤗
Notice anything, you two? You're so happy. There is no worry and dread anymore. So happy for you. Thanks for taking us along on your journey. Can't wait for the little one to get here! ❤🎉
Exactly!! No more worries and dread. Vary soon the little one will be running around the house.
Every woman needs an Alessio ❤❤. He is so loving and supportive. Jessi is looking healthy now. It's good to see you
Yes!!! Haven’t seen her this perky in a while!!
This was such fun. Alessio did well, Jessi you look glowing.
Alessio, from a 40yo first time mommy who is also experiencing second hand infertility…YOU DID AMAZING! You are a wonderful husband and partner and the joy you have learning about all of this is absolutely the loveliest. The fact that the video ends with you saying you will learn…chef’s kiss!
“Suck out the burgers 🍔 from the kid.” 😂😂
Also, why…why is it so incredibly healing to see Jessi glowing so hard?! It makes my heart sooooo happy. 💝
Jessi I hope you’re feeling a bit better. You look great!
I’m with Alessio. I thought the products were for home use too. He gets a bonus point on the Ultra Sound wand. Lol
I lost it . When he started making the motion for “milking a cow” 😂
I Absolutely Love the look when he says "America" 😅😂
So many new products now. I had my kids almost 40 years ago. Went to a midwife. Never used anything like these products. Feeling really old and outdated😂
The breast milk bags are VERY important, store up as much milk as you can, my daughter became ill with both of her children and had to take medication, and she had to pump & dump, because the baby could not be exposed to the medication. But she was still able to feed the babies the stored up milk, without having to resort to artificial milk. Then after she finished the medication and it was out of her system, she returned to breast feeding. This gave my daughter such a peace of mind since we had the formula shortage as well.
Such a good point!!
We had bottles to express into, bags would be handy as they are less bulky.🇦🇺😊👋🏻
I was able to donate over 36,000 ounces of my breastmilk to the NICU & those bags were VERY helpful!! ❤ The 1st time I donated, I used these little 8oz bottles to store my milk in & it was SUCH a headache bringing in those tubs filled with of HUNDREDS of bottles vs every time after that, I was able to just use 2 Styrofoam coolers filled with the milk bags. 🙌🏼🥰
Please take prenatal classes including breastfeeding classes so can have less anxiety. You will learn a lot. Blessings to you both
I feel fairly confident that they’ll be taking prenatal classes😂😂😂😂
They don't need classes .. they have RUclips .. and common sense .. they'll be fine
I highly recommend learning about post partum depression together prior.
As exciting new life is, and as anticipated this life is, the human body can be really messed up after birth and if you both are aware beforehand it might help Alessio to be aware of signs to watch for.
(Even pre-birth depression can happen) only sharing because it is a real thing to be aware of, and many don’t think about it until it happens to them and they feel like it’s just them and there is so much false guilt!!❤
Very happy for you both!
💯 I lived with my sister the first 6 months with the baby and she was in bed nearly all day. When she went back to work, she called out nearly 3 days a week and they fired her after a month. Her husband took care of baby most of the day (thank God I was there to help!) It was really horrible and losing her job then just added to the depression.
I pumped with my first while trying to breastfeed and I became an overproducer. If you plan to breastfeed and you’re uncomfortable at the beginning you can use a boon cup on the opposite side for the first few weeks and store that! Seeing a lactation consultant early on can be really helpful. Establishing a good breastfeeding relationship with baby the first 4 weeks will set you up for success!
Jess is radiant and Alessio blushing anytime we talked about milk is so adorable 😂
I had three kids in the eighties and had none of these gadgets. How did I and my children ever survive 😂😂😂
I had my kids in 2022 and 2025 and never got these 😂
I did too, and I nursed them both, so I had a manual pump and nursing pads, but the rest is definitely a big ? for the average new mother. A tube of lanolin for the nipples is an absolute necessity, though. It does not need to be washed off the nipples before nursing, and will spare you the experience of bloody nipple wounds.
@raisinette35great advice!
I know right???
Same
So funny ! I can’t wait to see this sweet Baby.
So excited for you two!
Love watching you two, can't wait to see baby!😃😍
You did great Alessio! You too will be such great parents! Jesse you are beautiful!
These things weren't even around when my daughter was pregnant 20 years ago.
They certainly wouldn't around when I was pregnant 40 years ago.
Some of them were just starting to come around, 20 years ago. I could have used those silver nipple covers. I exclusively pumped and they got raw and stuck to the nursing pads.
As someone for whom this is yet to come, Alessio did great! I gotta quiz my husband and see how many of these he remembers after two births 😅 But for real, Alessio not only knew some things already, he actually attentively listens to the explanations. I wish you two smooth sailing when it comes to this part ❤❤❤
You did a wonderful job Alessio! 👏🏻 You are both going to be amazing parents and I look forward to and every one of your videos. My baby who is also conceived through IVF is due just about a week after yours. So exciting to follow your journey that is so in-line with my own.❤
GET THE PILLOW!! It was a game changer! Worth every $$
I never had one but it is the one thing from the video that I think would be SO worth the cash.
Im so happy for you guys and im so excited to see all the pregnancy cravings 😂❤
This was great video idea guys! Love the dynamic between you and I agree Jessi, you are absolutely glowing with this pregnancy ❤
You are both glowing!
So happy for your excitement! Continued prayers for a healthy pregnancy and birth of your beautiful child!!
The silver nursing pads are not only for protection. They actually have healing properties! Always use them after breastfeeding, remembering to leave some drops of milk, and your cuts and soreness will be soon gone. They are a must have!
Jessi is glowing!!!
The nursing pads in the picture are the best ones I have found. The bamboo reusable ones are far superior to the disposable ones.
He did great! Good job! … With my first pregnancy I thought regular pillows would help support the belly and I didn’t want to spend $ on the pregnancy pillow. I eventually got big enough that sleeping was extremely uncomfortable no matter how many regular pillows I used. I caved and bought the pregnancy pillow. It was a game changer! I could finally sleep. I hope you get the pregnancy pillow.
In France we don’t have a Peri bottle usually and it’s THE BEST THING in postpartum. Women should bring one in the hospital if not provided!
My babies were born premature so they hadn't developed the sucking reflex and had to be tube fed in the neonatal ward. Pumping was vital to encourage my milk supply. You need to do it every 4 hours to build the supply, so these bags are life savers. There are glass and plastic bottle options available but when you're exhausted, the last thing you want to do is wash and sterilise them. The bags are disposable so they're the hassle free option
Working women use pumps at work. And some women use pumps so their husband can participate in the feeding process. 😊
Mom said just drink a BEER to produce more Mike !!! LoL
Guinness was used for this purpose in the old days. The only thing I had 35 years ago were the nursing pads and the pump. Some might have helped, like the pillow.
My doctor made me go have a glass of red wine. My milk just wouldn't come in.
Def take a lactation class. The more you nurse, the more milk you make. Drink a lot of fluids. Breast pads are a must lol (just thinking about your baby makes the milk let down!) Pumping is a great way to let the dad feed baby. You guys will do wonderfully.
Hey from Maine! 👋🏼😎
Hope you’re feeling better!
"Can't wait to see it." Hahaha great
Love you guys!
I'm with Alessio, I thought these were going to be home products. So I knew the ultrasound, but was confused by it too.
Your choices seem to indicate you believe breastfeeding will be very difficult. It can be a bit in the beginning, but stick with it and it becomes so second nature that you can do it practically in your sleep.
I kept reminding myself that my grandmother did this 6 times practically alone on the farm, so surely I can do it with modern medical help.
You got this.
I didn't take it as she thought breastfeeding would be difficult. I that she either just picked random items or possibly got it from someone else who did this with their husband.
"to pick up the BURGERS from the kid's nose" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think all of our prayers for them worked! I'm so happy for them!!😊
I can picture alessio making a bunch of those cookies while jesse is in the nesting stage of pregnancy!
I've seen lots of good nursing suggestions on here. Have nursed lots - don't stress it will work itself out. Yes sometimes its a tough go but not always and its pretty simple. Much of it is being prepared not to give up at the first sign of difficulty. Getting a good latch is oten the trick.
Lactation consultants are amazing and such a wealth of knowledge.
You two are so adorable! Jessie, you look so much better and Alessio, you are going to be such a good father. I'm so happy for you two! ❤
Ha this was a fun video, praying for a beautiful smooth pregnancy!! ❤
Wow, most of these items were not out when i had my younger son 34 years ago. Boy, things sure has changed. I'm sure you are going to be a GREAT MOM. 🫂💕🙏
I didn’t worry too much about pumping when breastfeeding it adds a lot of pressure to build up a supply the first months, just an occasional pump for when your breasts are really full/after a feeding can built up a little stash for when you want to step out for a couple of hours the first months (go to the hairdresser/….) and be sure dad has some milk. Or if you’re worried baby is hungry you can test with some extra from the supy. Otherwise if you can be with the baby to feed that establishes the best supply for your baby. Dad can help bringing baby to sleepy mom/changing. But taking over nightfeeds if that means you have to pump at that time doesn’t really help imo! Off course you can always do formula too! It’s your choice!
This was entertaining 🤣 ❤
You can use regular pillows as well.
the squirt bidet !!! i highly recommend not just for the tearing but helps with hemorrids
The milk bags are also a way to give dad time to feed and bond with baby too.
You are correct when it comes to pumping. Some women do make more milk than others and need to pump the excess. Also, some women pump so that they can share feeding time with their partner or relatives. You can freeze your milk which is really cool. I think it last in the freezer for at least 3 months if not longer. You guys look so happy. Jesse, you look so beautiful! Not that you weren't beautiful before, you just have a different look about you now it's a different kind of beauty. So excited for you guys!!!
Wow! Products sure have changed since I gave birth in '86!
His face with the transvaginal ultrasound wand 😂 We need this for at home?! 😂😂
You two are gonna have so much fun in the second trimester!! It’s a relief! Enjoy it. The last third trimester is when you both are gonna be so ready to deliver new life. So thankful you have come so far.
I love Alessio's reaction for the pregnancy pillow. "Genius!"
Pumping is an option, but usually not a necessity. If you are at home with the baby, you can breastfeed exclusively. But pumping can be nice to have a break. In the first few weeks, the baby is literally constantly nursing. Not just every 2-3 hours. Babies are nursed on demand. Whenever the baby wants to eat, you should feed it. You also don't need to freeze any milk if you don't want to. There are a lot of options!
Also pumping doesn't work for everyone even though you might still be able to breastfeed.
I pumped a little bit with my first born because everyone said I had to. I had a storage of milk that I really didn’t need because my baby never took a bottle and I was at home, nursing on demand anyway. With my second, I never even bothered pumping. It was just me, my husband was deployed so he couldn’t help, and we lived away from family too. Nursed on demand, had no trouble with supply at all. And with pumping, you can also risk encouraging an oversupply because the body works off supply/demand. The more you pump, the more demand the body thinks you have. Can be good if you need to pump, but that soreness when you’re engorged is awful. I would just hand express to release some pressure if I felt too full as my baby’s feeds were stretching out or they were sleeping for longer stretches.
@fruityflutie100% agree
In what world do you live in where you can have a baby constantly attached to your boobs? Like you said, the baby is constantly nursing. This is NOT an option for most mothers. I lived with my sister her first months with baby and the baby never correctly breastfed, and when she did, it was painful and took FOREVER. Pumping is much less painful and takes 30 min and my sister was able to do other things. Pumping also allows the father to feed the baby, particularly so my sister could sleep, and yes, in America WORK. Portable pumps were also lifesavers when we were out. As I mentioned, breastfeeding can take 45min+ PER BOOB and who has that time!? It is not realistic and I know friends who stopped breastfeeding/pumping altogether because it basically takes up 80% of your day. To me, that was the most surprising thing about “going through this” or helping out.
@sarsonder5127so sad to read this:/ Thanks god i didn't have to work and nursed my baby properly🙏
So cute to see Jessie almost blushing. You both are adorable!
Jessi, you look so lovely! You are so bright, shining, and glowing! You also seem to feel a lot better!
Oh, I’m so happy!
I’m so excited for you both! Let be to you all! I continue to cover you daily in prayer!
Blessings! ❤
Plan to train the baby to the breast first, then the bottle so that Allessio can help with feedings also. Mama needs to rest sometimes. I am so happy for you two.
You two are so adorable!
I too remember the iced cabbage leaves in the hospital in 1987, they were sooo wonderful. Also, with my first in 1987, the hospital gave us a celebratory steak dinner for two (for me and new daddy who also was able to sleep-in in my room), with all the fixings, tiramisu, and a non-alcoholic sparkly apple drink. In 1991, with baby #2, there was no celebratory steak dinner, same hospital, same insurance. Sigh. But there were healthy lactation-promoting snacks for me every few hours, which did not happen in 1987.
You are doing great Alessio 😊 You are going to be a wonderful father as you already are a loving and caring husband.
Lactation cookies work great! Homemade is best.
Before there were Nursing Therapy Pacts we put cabbage leaves in our bra. Yes my doctor in the hospital ordered them from the kitchen when my milk first came in- i still remember the relief 40 years later lol
I remember doing that too, just the first day or two.
Same in Germany. The midwife, who came to our house in the days/weeks after birth told me to put cabbage leaves on my breasts. Worked great but only short as they dry up your milk. I had a huge oversupply. Great for those who want to bottle feed to dry up the milk and right out of the fridge, cold like an ice pack.
Yes it's an effective treatment for engorgement when you have an over supply.
Only thing I used in these pictures are the milk freezer bags and the nursing pads then of course the mesh undies and pads but not ice ones
My fav is pronouncing boogers as burgers😂
I don't know which one of you is glowing more! You both look so happy and you deserve it!
Great guess Alessio 😂
Alessio cracks me up, he is so funny and I can't wait to see the expression on his face when the little one comes into the world! You are the cutest couple and we enjoy watching you. Jessi you will do wonderful and I love your attitude about it all. You will make the best parents! A very blessed child he or she! I am going to guess and say it's a girl! I have always felt it is a girl but no matter what the gender, what a lucky baby!
I used the mesh pants. Just hand wash them for more use.
Don't worry Alessia i didn't understand the assignment either!!!😂
Wow, I wish they had any of this when I had my babies.
I wish they had these things when I had my kids. We suffered through so much without products to help at all.
I thought it was only for home baby items too, like alessio.
I didnt know some of these newer baby products.
I was thinking home stuff, as well.
Alessio, you need to get some of these products. The pillow, ice pads, breast covers. Those will help so much. Great job on guessing the products. Love from Hawaii
It just means, You don't need Everything!! Do more things, by Natural Instinct!
Poor Alessio!! 🤗
Last one, looked like Castenettes!! 💃🏼🕺🏼🎶🪇🪘
Yeah the belly band....to help counteract the weight of the big belly!
ice maxi pads - huge help!
He did amazing you are so blessed to have Alessio he is the best
"Its for the burgers 🍔 " Lol
😂
It is such a JOY to watch you two focus on the future! You are naturals at this. ❤❤
If you're anything like me, you're going to leak milk a lot during the first few weeks, so make sure you get milk collectors that you can wear in your bra or if you hear a baby cry because you will let down. I swore by the Haaka ladybugs because they kept you from making a mess when removing them.
No in Italia non esistono tutte queste cose.....solo la metà!
My prayers have been answered! So happy for you both be coming parents! May your home be full of the pitter patter of little feet for years to come!
You always hear about the “pregnancy glow”
But Jessi, you are truly GLOWING! Like a visible, radiant light coming from your beautiful face. So thrilled for you two, and praying the nausea subsides soon ❤
You did well Asessio! As a Dutch person, I have never heard of the gas passer. However I just googled and I could buy it online if I wanted... Al the other products I knew existed, but you definitely do not need them all! This is very much a personal preference thing. Many of these products have cheaper alternatives, for example I used couch cushions to be comfortable in bed while pregnant, and I used bags with apple syrup to cool my breasts after delivery.
I used cabbage leaves in my bra when i got mastitis. My youngest is 33.
@debbierudolph9489 This also works great indeed!
Great idea for a video! Enjoy your weekend! 🧡🦋😊
I'm sò happy for the two of you! Here's to a beautiful healthy baby😊.
You can put witch hazel in the peri bottle to clean and reduce inflammation. Game changer!
I love the love that you have for each other❤️ It shows even more in this video. You are so precious and I am so excited for your incredible blessing!
