Not me watching this @ 5 months pregnant and sobbing thinking about when my baby is born..... Fr though this was wonderful to watch and put me at ease. So many moms want to hit me with how "awful" it's going to be once baby gets here,and it was magical seeing you have a night with baby that was peaceful and loving. Thank you for this video! 💗💗
I just miss this so much, I didn't realize how much I would. She was born in December, at 5am during a wake time, I watched the snow fall with her from the window. It was magical.
I absolutely loved the middle of nights together. I labored from 2am-6am and she was born 6:10am...I found she'd often be awake in the wee hours of the morning looking our the window...those quiet moments were my favorite tines with her.
I thought my insomnia growing up was bad but now being at home with a one month old I barely get any sleep at all. It's incredible how our bodies learn to adjust to barely getting any rest or sleep after going through 9 months of pregnancy, giving birth, and then caring for our babies once they arrive. My daughter wakes up about 3 to 4 times a night for feedings and diaper changes. I'm exhausted but my body seems to run on a natural high.
@@ava1ynn821 it's getting easier now with my 8 month old. I have been sleep training her since she was 4 months old but she does still get up throughout the night several times during the week.
thank you for sharing your experience.. @@Iamjessicakouassi I find people who try to convince themselves that they're happy (aka "im running on a natural high") in spite of their struggles (aka sleep deprivation) really invalidating for what women truly experience post partum. I cant imagine how much they're also truly struggling trying to put up a front.
such a great example of what it's like 👍🏻👍🏻 and you have a good attitude ! it's doesn't last forever ! and it does help to know you are one of thousands of mommas up in the night with their babies too ❤️ we all fight through together 🤗
this is soo encouraging for me :) im becoming a ftm in february and am so nervous about how the nights will look once hubby goes back to work after 2 weeks. this made me feel like i can do it with the love and guidance of the Lord !
You can do it!! I was so nervous too but honestly your mommy instincts will kick in and you’ll just do what you need to do. God bless you and your little one!♥️
So nice to see your husbands involvement when he can jump in. My husband and I are expecting our first little bean July 2023. I imagine my sweet husband will be as helpful as possible too. Thank you for such an insightful video! And thank you especially for that last part with your pep talk. So helpful. I feel like we can totally do this.
@@MsWorldMine…..what 😂 how has a scientific thing like breast milk been politicized? Breast milk absolutely helps for stuff like that who says it doesn’t 😅
Love your outlook on the hard parts of having a newborn! I’ve also got a newborn who only wants to nurse on one side at a time. So great to see how you handle this at night while maintaining supply. ❤
Thank you so much for showing a realistic night with a new born!! I have a two week old baby girl and my nights look very similar. So comforting to know us mummas are in this together xxxx
Sitting here baffled as a new mom wondering how on earth people are this organized and have time to film/ edit these videos while parenting a newborn 😂😅 My bedroom/ nursery looked like this before he was born and now it’s like a tornado went through the house. These parents are doing an amazing job and we are all doing our very best ❤
Love your honest feedback. Me too! My mum helps heaps but on days she cant be here i struggle to get anything done! Love to all new moms, however you do❤
Girl go on and speak the Truth. So refreshing to hear you speak about Holy Spirit. LOVE. I’m almost 6 months pregnant with our little girl, and I currently have a little boy who just turned 1 in November. So our situations are so similar! Love your videos!
Omg that head back on the headboard nursing is soooo relatable right now. This ^^ is literally my life right now! Love you friend-you’re an inspiration and doing amazing ❤
You definitely made it look manageable ❤watching these videos are helping me so much just with the overwhelming thoughts of how I’ll manage when my new born gets here. First time and low key nervous but through Christ all things are possible 🙏🏾
Refreshed to see another mama on RUclips who mentions the Lord and His sustaining grace 😁 I feel like it would be easy to shy away from comments like that but you don’t and that’s really encouraging. ❤️❤️ great video! Thanks for all the work you put in!
I just discovered your channel and wow your videos are so relatable! I am a new momma and my baby is currently just over 4 weeks old. Watching your videos with your newborns and seeing how often they wake up in the middle of the night has been so reassuring to me.
I hope you don’t mind (I don’t normally comment actually). But what my husband and I do is…I go to sleep at 8.30pm. I pump. And then my husband does the bath, feeds the baby and then comes to bed around 10pm. Then I’m out of it and wake up for the next feed. That gives you a good stretch of sleep…highly recommend.
I have been married for 26 years now. I think it's hilarious how the husbands can sleep through what we go through in the middle of the night with the babies. Just so funny to see other men sleeping through it. Lol
That just happened to me for the first time, I always thought that my husband is so helpful and would do anything for me 🤣 Our baby is 3 days old and i am in pain of a c section. Well my husband checked if I could get up with minimum pain and when he saw that i was ok, he suddenly slept back with a snore, i was like what the hell! Men are another level.
@@Niaa979 hopefully in all seriousness we all know that it's best for only one person to be awake. Like how I sleep through any late night drives 🤷🏽♀️
Thank you for posting this! I am going to be a first time mom due in June and I have been having a lot of anxiety about everything that is to come/ not believing in myself that I can do it. Your videos have really been helping me a lot seeing it super real. I feel like a lot of youtubers cut out the hard parts so thank you for showing this and making me feel so much better.
This was really helpful! I feel like you showed the parts that most youtubers usually cut out, so thank you ! I've been watching you since you've started and I'm now 6 weeks pregnant with my first!! I'm so excited and am definitely gonna watch your videos in a new light. Keep it up mama, you're amazing !
I have a 5 months old baby and for about 3-4 days he is waking up only once per night. This is such a relief after 5 months of sleepless nights. I hope soon he will sleep for the entire night), and me too)
I’m a first-time mom with a 5-week old and my routine is pretty much the same as yours! 😅 That makes me feel better. My baby still wakes up every 1.5, 2, and/or 3 hours at night😩
Omg, I'm expecting my second child and totally forgot how it was with a newborn. My two year old has been sleeping through the night for about a year now (pure blessing I tell you), and the idea of waking up every two hours or more kills me!! Haha. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Thank you soooo much for taking the time to film and share this. Due in a few weeks and it’s so helpful to see this in action having never done it. I especially appreciate your prayers in the morning. I’ll definitely be doing that. Thanks again!
Well, I like the part where you mentioned about your faith that keeps you going in the morning. It was simple and light heartening. Very refreshing. I'm currently 20 weeks I am looking forward To the rewards and challenges ahead. This video was very Enlightening, educational, and just downright sweet.
Thank you so much for making this video. The guidance you've provided by simply letting us glimpse your process, it has been incredibly helpful for those of us navigating this process for the first time. I appreciate you!
The encouragement at the end of the video felt like God wanted me to hear that through you. I am a new mom and nights have been a challenge. Thank you for those verses and encouragement that I am not alone. 🙏🏻❤️
Love your content as a ftm who use to live in Ontario. I have been watching your channel for a year now since I found out I was pregnant. My son is now 4 months. Not sure where I learned this hack for the haakka but if you put it in an empty coffee mug it is much harder to knock over!
Im 20 weeks this Friday and my nesting has kicked in full force. This was so helpful and exciting to see what a night may look like for us. Thank you thank you ❤️
Thank you for this video! I am 30 weeks pregnant with baby #2 trying to get ready for the newborn nights - my firstborn is almost 6 years old so it has been a while and I need a refresher.
I’m currently pregnant with my third baby, and this video is so beautiful! This video was real, yet hopeful and I love it! Also, do you have a box spring; I asked because we do and Im trying to gauge if I’ll need the maxi for taller height vs the normal one. I wish I would’ve known about the bedside cosleeper from my first pregnancy 4 years ago! Definitely just subscribed, blessing to you and your beautiful family! 💕
I was so blessed both my boys (well not really boy's anymore they are 22 n 20) were good sleeper's and only woke up 2x a night. I used formula and my husband and i would tag team feeding. My first started sleeping all night at 3 weeks and my second at 4 weeks. I remember my friends baby was 8 months and waking up every 3 hours and i couldn't understand why until she informed me that my situation was not the norm at all. Props to all the moms and dads who can function on a few hours of sleep!😴
I'm not a mom or pregnant yet, but I've got so much respect for you... And am amazed by your hair. How do you wake up several times a night with your hair looking like you just brushed and curled it? Is it naturally wavy or straight? Hope it's not weird to ask. Best, Sasha
Haha aw thank you so much!! Honestly my hair is pretty coarse so it holds a curl really well 😂 a blessing and a curse because it doesn’t feel very soft!
Nothing to beat a nightly bath. You wont dry out his skin. It relaxes the entire body - for adults too. Don't forget an all over massage when you've bathed him. It works a treat. I used it with my triplets daily and they always slept well and were calm. I would never skip a bath or shower myself so certainly don't for my babies.
I love your videos! I’m expecting my first in July so these have been so helpful. Random question. Where did you get your dresser? I’m looking for something similar for his nursery, but it’s all self assembly and I’m worried about the quality. Thanks! ☺️
Just found this video and it gave a lot of insight and encouragement as my husband and I are about to have our first baby in the next few weeks (more or less but probably less). We both have been pretty nervous as the time bomb is ticking down for baby day and just trying to figure out and wonder how in the world can we make it as parents and raise Killian. The Lord has helped us and been with us each step of the way and brought Killian into our lives during a year fraught with death and nearly every appliance breaking down. Killian has been a joy for us and we look forward to welcoming him, though it’s still pretty scary at times.
When you put baby down for that first sleep and then come to bed a bit later, do you have a camera or anything on them? I’m anxious to leave my newborn alone even in the bassinet and was curious how you guys manage it :) Love seeing this real look at nighttime, it’s very encouraging to see that I’m doing some things right!
Thank you for the effort of doing this videos!! ❤ becoming a ftm in February and this videos. Are so helpful to have a better idea of what to expect and a beautiful way to handle it
Currently got a 4 day old I know the early days are hard but you made this look so easy, my little girl will feed at night but will not sleep or she’ll just settle for 30 mins 😮
It Gets better Mine did exactly this during the first week and then it got better Still would not go Back to sleep at night and wanted to be aware whiwh was hard bit at least i knew je could sleep 2-3h after that. Made it easier Keep up the good work 🔥
Thanks for showing this! Where do you get your night lamp ? It seems like a nice one that’s not too bright. Also where can I find such a beautiful bedside bassinet ?
your video came into my feed but i have an almost 9 month old now this makes me miss the newborn phase😢 my baby boy actually slept 9-12 hours every night at 5 weeks with the occasional 1 wake up at night to feed, he’s now up every 1-2 hours and definitely doesn’t go back down as easily! such a good video though, im a second time mom but i would’ve loved to see this before i had my first!
Great video! Wish I had youtube to look things like this up when I was a new mom, but youtube didn’t exist when I had my first😂 My daughter is having her first baby soon just wondering if the bedside cradle bed you use is still available to purchase? It’s gorgeous and looks like a great set up for baby! Thank you for this! Blessings to you all! ❤❤❤
I had my first baby at the age of 21 and at night I didn’t do anything at all my husband did everything for his child, he even stopped working for two months just to take care of his daughter .
My fiancé works nights but he would get the baby for me during his leave! I would feed him and then we would continue sleeping. Breastfeeding certainly was a journey
I’m a toddler mom and this is what scares me most about having another, I had such terrible PPD I still get flashbacks to those sleep deprived days. I didn’t have Jesus, there was a lot out of my control it was really hard but your words and perspective are truly inspiring especially the part about the Holy Spirit. This video helped me heal a bit of my ptsd from the newborn days with my daughter. God bless you and your family ❤️ thank you for making this video
I’m watching this jealous of the newborn days. I cosleep and BF my 11 month old still and for some reason my son will wake every 20 mins. We’ve been at this stage for a few months now and it’s harrrrd. Hoping to re sleep train again Monday as he’s off nursery for a week, he’s finally not sick, not teething and we seem to be coming into the clear 😅🤞🏼
Yesss take the pressure off - some of these extensive routines at like 1/2 weeks old are honestly unnecessary haha. They are going to do whatever they're going to do at that stage. 🤪
FTM due in April! This video was so helpful and encouraging. Much better than the "just wait till your sleep deprived 😂🙃🤪🤪🤪🤪" comments. Like let me be excited for a baby damn
Im pregnant and i can't get myself to sleep until about 4am. It's 1am and I'm watching this 😂 Great video! I wonder if my body is getting me prepared for night times with baby. I get 8hrs+of sleep i just end up sleeping in instead. 😅
I'm so happy your baby wakes up every few hours because it means mine is not the only one! 😭😅🤣 Sorry, but I've seen other RUclipsrs' babies sleep pretty much through the night at 8 weeks, but my baby is 7 weeks and gets up at about 3am and 6am (I try to get her down at around 10 and I usually feed her before I go to bed which is like 11.30)... I realize your baby is only 5 weeks old but it still makes me feel better 😅😂😂❤
How do you like the Mom Cozy hands free pump? I’m expecting baby #2 in June 2023 & I keep seeing Ads for this! This time I really want to invest in a good pump. Do you find it stays charged for a good amount of time?
I love it so far! Love that it’s not clunky and it always gets a good amount of milk out for me. Battery seems to last for like a week but I usually only pump like 8-15 mins per side!
What pillow do you use for breastfeeding? I love that shape, it seems much easier to use than traditional breastfeeding pillows. I have yet to find one that is comfortable
New subscriber, what beautiful Words at the end of your vlog, thank you for encouraging me for this day. I have an 8 week old and sleep depravation is Still a reality for me. I'm glad God put this video to encourage me that this won't Last forever, and we need to ask Him to give us strength for each day. Thank you. Loved your video 🥰
Having my fourth . Breastfeeding also. But have to be back to work full time at 6 weeks. Luckily my husband stays home with our littles but man it’s so hard going back full time so soon
We did this with our first too!! Tbh in this video I had to make the room brighter than I usually do at night wakings so you guys could see anything - a lot of the time I just use my phone flash light hahaha

Props to all the moms and dads who can function on a few hours of sleep!😴
This was sooo helpful! I truly just have no idea what to expect as a ftm, so thankyou❤
I'm not a mom or pregnant yet, but I've got so much respect for you... And am amazed by your hair. How do you wake up several times a night with your hair looking like you just brushed and curled it? Is it naturally wavy or straight? Hope it's not weird to ask.
Best, Sasha
Haha aw thank you so much!! Honestly my hair is pretty coarse so it holds a curl really well 😂 a blessing and a curse because it doesn’t feel very soft!
I have a 2 week old those middle of the night feedings are no joke lol. Thanks for sharing
Nothing to beat a nightly bath. You wont dry out his skin. It relaxes the entire body - for adults too. Don't forget an all over massage when you've bathed him. It works a treat. I used it with my triplets daily and they always slept well and were calm. I would never skip a bath or shower myself so certainly don't for my babies.
I don't think she meant the bath itself was the culprit more so the products.
I love your videos! I’m expecting my first in July so these have been so helpful. Random question. Where did you get your dresser? I’m looking for something similar for his nursery, but it’s all self assembly and I’m worried about the quality. Thanks! ☺️
Just found this video and it gave a lot of insight and encouragement as my husband and I are about to have our first baby in the next few weeks (more or less but probably less). We both have been pretty nervous as the time bomb is ticking down for baby day and just trying to figure out and wonder how in the world can we make it as parents and raise Killian. The Lord has helped us and been with us each step of the way and brought Killian into our lives during a year fraught with death and nearly every appliance breaking down. Killian has been a joy for us and we look forward to welcoming him, though it’s still pretty scary at times.
Aww I loved the video! It gets me so excited for next year when we will have a newborn 💕 (first time mom wohoo)
Congrats girl!! So exciting!
@@BethGraceMoore thank you!! 💕
Oh wow you’re doing such an amazing job, it’s amazing to watch you 🫶🏼 all the best
When you put baby down for that first sleep and then come to bed a bit later, do you have a camera or anything on them? I’m anxious to leave my newborn alone even in the bassinet and was curious how you guys manage it :) Love seeing this real look at nighttime, it’s very encouraging to see that I’m doing some things right!
Do you have a baby monitor?
Thank you for the effort of doing this videos!! ❤ becoming a ftm in February and this videos. Are so helpful to have a better idea of what to expect and a beautiful way to handle it
Currently got a 4 day old I know the early days are hard but you made this look so easy, my little girl will feed at night but will not sleep or she’ll just settle for 30 mins 😮
It Gets better
Mine did exactly this during the first week and then it got better
Still would not go Back to sleep at night and wanted to be aware whiwh was hard bit at least i knew je could sleep 2-3h after that. Made it easier
Keep up the good work 🔥
Thanks for showing this! Where do you get your night lamp ? It seems like a nice one that’s not too bright. Also where can I find such a beautiful bedside bassinet ?
your video came into my feed but i have an almost 9 month old now this makes me miss the newborn phase😢 my baby boy actually slept 9-12 hours every night at 5 weeks with the occasional 1 wake up at night to feed, he’s now up every 1-2 hours and definitely doesn’t go back down as easily! such a good video though, im a second time mom but i would’ve loved to see this before i had my first!
Great video! Wish I had youtube to look things like this up when I was a new mom, but youtube didn’t exist when I had my first😂 My daughter is having her first baby soon just wondering if the bedside cradle bed you use is still available to purchase? It’s gorgeous and looks like a great set up for baby! Thank you for this! Blessings to you all! ❤❤❤
love the vlog-style videos!!
I had my first baby at the age of 21 and at night I didn’t do anything at all my husband did everything for his child, he even stopped working for two months just to take care of his daughter .
My fiancé works nights but he would get the baby for me during his leave! I would feed him and then we would continue sleeping. Breastfeeding certainly was a journey
I’m a toddler mom and this is what scares me most about having another, I had such terrible PPD I still get flashbacks to those sleep deprived days. I didn’t have Jesus, there was a lot out of my control it was really hard but your words and perspective are truly inspiring especially the part about the Holy Spirit. This video helped me heal a bit of my ptsd from the newborn days with my daughter. God bless you and your family ❤️ thank you for making this video
Mom: A title just above queen❤
Hey I love your baby’s crib! Where is it from ?
I’m watching this jealous of the newborn days. I cosleep and BF my 11 month old still and for some reason my son will wake every 20 mins. We’ve been at this stage for a few months now and it’s harrrrd.
Hoping to re sleep train again Monday as he’s off nursery for a week, he’s finally not sick, not teething and we seem to be coming into the clear 😅🤞🏼
What a hope by the end of this video! Amen His grace is sufficient
Moms are superheroes.
A diaper caddy would be useful for your bedside table that way you have everything organized and you can take it around the house if needed 😉
Thanks for sharing your expereince! I was wondering where you bought your crib/bassinet?
Which light do you use in the corner please? I’d like to order one today!
You're so gorgeous! This was so helpful and I cried a bit at the end
Great video!! Where’s your water bottle from?
Love this! 😍relieved a lot of my worry about enforcing a sleeping schedule. My son is due January 10th
Yesss take the pressure off - some of these extensive routines at like 1/2 weeks old are honestly unnecessary haha. They are going to do whatever they're going to do at that stage. 🤪
Hi I’m just wondering what app do you use to record you have such good video quality❤
FTM due in April! This video was so helpful and encouraging. Much better than the "just wait till your sleep deprived 😂🙃🤪🤪🤪🤪" comments. Like let me be excited for a baby damn
I’m a FTM due April 24th! And I totally agree…I can’t even count how many times I’ve heard that😅 Good luck to you and the baby!
Also, ftm, April 26! And I agree! Like I know it will be hard but also incredible, and let me be excited!
Hiiii love your video! Kinda random but what nightstands do you have? :)
Thank you SO much for sharing this was totally helpful and encouraging! Such a beautiful family you have so blessed!
Im pregnant and i can't get myself to sleep until about 4am. It's 1am and I'm watching this 😂
Great video!
I wonder if my body is getting me prepared for night times with baby.
I get 8hrs+of sleep i just end up sleeping in instead. 😅
This is so helpful i am due with my first baby in 6 weeks 💗
So soon!! Congrats to you and good luck 🥰
I'm so happy your baby wakes up every few hours because it means mine is not the only one! 😭😅🤣 Sorry, but I've seen other RUclipsrs' babies sleep pretty much through the night at 8 weeks, but my baby is 7 weeks and gets up at about 3am and 6am (I try to get her down at around 10 and I usually feed her before I go to bed which is like 11.30)... I realize your baby is only 5 weeks old but it still makes me feel better 😅😂😂❤
My son is 13 months and he still wakes up every few hours... sometimes he gets back to sleep easily but mostly he wants to be nursed
Where you got your coffee table from ??? So pretty!!!
How do you like the Mom Cozy hands free pump? I’m expecting baby #2 in June 2023 & I keep seeing Ads for this! This time I really want to invest in a good pump. Do you find it stays charged for a good amount of time?
I love it so far! Love that it’s not clunky and it always gets a good amount of milk out for me. Battery seems to last for like a week but I usually only pump like 8-15 mins per side!
Is the bassinet the Maxi or the Original - I am thinking about purchasing with your code!
We have the maxi! :)
What pillow do you use for breastfeeding? I love that shape, it seems much easier to use than traditional breastfeeding pillows. I have yet to find one that is comfortable
New subscriber, what beautiful Words at the end of your vlog, thank you for encouraging me for this day. I have an 8 week old and sleep depravation is Still a reality for me. I'm glad God put this video to encourage me that this won't Last forever, and we need to ask Him to give us strength for each day. Thank you. Loved your video 🥰
Having my fourth . Breastfeeding also. But have to be back to work full time at 6 weeks. Luckily my husband stays home with our littles but man it’s so hard going back full time so soon
You’re such a great mother! And you’re baby’s so cute! ❤
Loving this content! I’m taking notes since I’ll be in this situation myself soon enough!
We switched from a white light to a red light lamp at night, it might help you as well. 😊
Great video … my little one is 3 months old this week.
We did this with our first too!! Tbh in this video I had to make the room brighter than I usually do at night wakings so you guys could see anything - a lot of the time I just use my phone flash light hahaha
