Sam, I am currently 25 weeks pregnant. 25 years old. First pregnancy. I've been a silent watcher for years and I was so happy when you announced your pregnancy because I'll have someone I enjoy watching going through the same thing at the same time. I have never related more to you when you get emotional over your appearance. I went to the mall the other day to shop for NYE outfit and cried all day. I felt bad about what I was feeling but it was so hard seeing a different version of myself. Thank you for putting that into the video. It helped me feel seen!!
Words can’t express how much I love you, Samantha. You are my comfort RUclipsr, 100%. I have your videos on in my room to set ambience as I am crafting, cleaning, studying, or just laying on my bed staring at my ceiling. Thank you for being the amazing person you are.
Sam!! My first pregnancy was MISERABLE too. My fiancé of 9 years who I was having the baby with decided to leave me. I had to move back home and developed a gallbladder issue.. I was in and out of the hospital weekly getting pumped with morphine bc of the pain I was in from the gallbladder but also had to be monitored bc the baby. I was sick daily and lost a lot of weight. Then knowing I was about to raise a baby ALONE, living back at my parents made me so so so depressed. My daughter is 12 now and I look back on that as one of the hardest things I’ve EVER been through.. but I was strong and I did it. Just as you will look back on this and see what a strong woman//mom you are ❤ I wish you the best! Xoxo
Aw sweet Samantha, thank you for always being vulnerable with us and sharing the hard parts alongside the good parts (: we love you and are rooting for you all
I’m 25 years old, first pregnancy and I’m 17 weeks. Not far along enough to really show due to being plus size, but I notice changes and I feel a very similar feeling to you and my thought process seems to be similar and it’s easy to spiral. You being so open and honest has truly helped me so much thus far. Thank you for being you and being so transparent about things when it can be extremely hard and emotional to do so🩷
Was just watching an older Samantha Jo video, I never clicked so dang fast 🤣 I know you’re feelin all over the place, but you are doing amazing! 💚 love ya Sam!
13:50 ma’am, you are gorgeous and you are one of the best moms I’ve seen! And yes, you are a mom. You’re technically taking care of another life inside of you. Don’t feel guilty, it’s normal to reminisce. Don’t invalidate your feelings! 🫶
Not dramatic having to eat every couple of hours so you don't feel sick while being pregnant. I had that as well. I was nauseous for most of my pregnancies, especially if I went too long in between eating. Do what makes you feel good, which I think you are!!! You're doing great Sam, pregnancy affects everyone differently, just keep on listening to your body!!
You will get back to yourself and you won't only remember feeling this sick after your baby is born. I was so sick for the majority of my pregnancy with my first and I don't look back and only remember feeling ill. You'll mostly remember the kicks and ultrasounds and all the good things. That thought is the only thing getting me through my current pregnancy as I'm just a sick as before.
Thanks for sharing the good and not so good times. What you feel is totally valid. This season of life won't last forever. You're doing amazing! Thank you for sharing pieces of your life with us ❤️
Sam I love seeing you! Im pretty sure we have the same due date (literally at 31 weeks now) and it’s so good to be seen by you because it’s HARD. Something that might make you happy while packing is also throwing out anything expired. I know it’s emotional but also then it’s not moved and after like the third thing it’s so much easier. I’m cheering for you ♥️♥️
Youre so beautiful and i promise when your baby boy gets here all the emotions you've felt things you've been through are gonna erase so quickly from your mind, everything is gonna be okay just take it one day at a time girly God bless you your man and your baby boy! 😇
Queen you made me emotional. First pregnancy is so hard. Im 25 and just had my girl . My 1st month was torture and i felt the body image problem so much as a bigger girl . Love you girl. Keep pushing ❤
You are allowed to be sad about your body, but training your brain so hard to see beauty in your baby growing is so beneficial babeee! You are so beautiful more now than ever to me and I know you will see beauty soon or you will have to wait till after baby is born, like me! But I love you girl, you’re worthy, you’re special and so so useful in this world!!
Also in high school a very close family friend made a remark that stuck with me till I had a baby, was he was saying to a young man about to have a child and he was being honest man to man I guess and he said what if she hates her body more now than she ever has, and he said hey don’t even worry all woman get sexier after their first kid. And I though we what a weirdo, but I think he meant his wife, he found his wife 10000 times more attractive, and after having a child all the hormones were crazy, and then I was normal, a normal I’ve never been, a normal weight for my height- something I’ve never been, I lost 40lbs after three years of having my child and I’m shocked to say the least but I’m proud and I thank that man now for those words of encouragement when I needed them most
We are having our forever home built right now and this is making me want to purge bigtime before moving. I forgot how many groceries/spices/freezer and pantry items are a pain lol we will be eating only ramen and takeout for the last 4 weeks before we move 😂😂😂
I’m early for once so I’d just like to say your my favourite RUclipsr every day I watch ur videos I found you trying to get motivation to clean my room and I’ve loved you ever since I’m so happy for you and your baby boy I love you bc you are so positive but you also show reality and your my fav RUclipsr ever ❤️❤️🩷
Sam you need an OIL and a lotion. You NEED to moisturize when pregnant and after birth. I didn’t get any stretch marks during my pregnancy and girl I am prone to them….i stopped my skin care after I gave birth and BAM starting getting them
You’re BEAUTIFUL!! My body has changed SO many times since I was in my 20’s and, of course, we’re NEVER really happy with how we look. BUT, we are our worst critics. Nobody else cares as much as we do about our own bodies. As long as you’re healthy and happy, who feckin’ cares! And, if people judge you based on what your body looks like, fuck them, am I right? Stay positive. You’re being an amazing mom & it’s ok to feel the way you do… give yourself permission. I’ve had 2 children & my body changed after both of them, in different ways. My period even changed… it wasn’t as heavy or as painful. Yay! I’m around your mom’s age (older, I think) and I’m positive she’s telling you the same things. My youngest daughter is your age & my oldest will be 26 next month. All through high school, my oldest played volleyball and did track. She was thin, I thought she was in shape. Turns out she was anorexic. She’s 5’11” and weighed 150 lbs (maybe less). Fast forward, she has her master’s in nutrition, she’s a Registered Dietitian. When she was thin she always had reflux. When she was thin, she had no boobs - lol. Now that she’s an RD, she realizes what a healthy body feels like. She’s now a lot heavier, but NO reflux and she’s so happy she has boobs (😂)!! She just got married in October and couldn’t be happier! My point is that as long as you feel healthy and your baby is healthy, don’t worry about your weight right now. You worked so hard to lose weight before you got pregnant, and maybe that’s WHY you became pregnant so easily! You DO have time after you have BABY BOY to get back to where you were (and I know you’ll get there)! Much love and luck to you and your little family… hugs 🤗 and happy holidays 🎄
I hated being pregnant. I was never a happy pregnant person. I was nauseous and had awful heartburn the whole time and both times. So don’t stress yourself out to much.
Hey Sam! I’m not sure if you have already talked about this, but since your baby will be mixed, I’m curious to know if you’ve been looking forward to learning about styling curly hair? I’m half white and half black so I was kind of excited to hear your thoughts about it if you feel comfortable to share ❤️
Moisturizing doesn’t prevent stretch marks! So don’t worry mamas, you don’t have to waste money on creams and oils and lotions. Stretch marks are genetic. You’ll get them or you won’t. Save that money.
My Beautiful Sam you are beautiful inside and out with being pregnant or not, God sees you in the most beautiful light and he has such great plans for you. I Keep telling you that.💖💄🥰💋❤️💋
@@sarahloohoo2312 I'm aware it's her job. I'm also aware that she has had medical issues with this pregnancy and if she worked a "regular" job would be entitled to medical leave based on this. RUclips isn't her only method of income. she's big on other social media platforms and therefore doesn't have to upload on here at all. And I don't understand why people like you are criticizing her for how many videos she uploads. You aren't entitled to anything from her whatsoever. Being pregnant is hard, lots of people take time off, especially if they have complications in their pregnancies. Give her a break
@@Nashbash4397 What I think is strange is why you come to bat so hard for a random stranger who doesn’t even know you exist. You don’t know Sam nor her true intentions. Why waste your energy defending a random stranger who is far more privilege than either of us?? She isn’t your friend. editing to laugh at your suggestion that “regular” folk get medical leave when sick 😂😂 tell that to the millions of uncovered workers..
She has explained it in previous videos that she wasn't sure if she'll do vlogmas this year since there's a lot going on in her life atm, she's heavily pregnant, moving homes and has her mental health to deal with. She's even mentioned in the past that she's more active posting on Tiktok compared to RUclips currently but still tries and gets a video out for us here each week.

You are the sweetest thing in the entire world!!! He's so incredibly lucky to have a mom like you and YOU WILL BE FANTASTIC.

I totally feel you on feeling useful. My mom keeps telling me to be careful for the most mundane things and it drives me crazy.

Take care of yourself and that baby. That's all that counts. Have a wonderful Christmas.

Emotional people can heal the world. It's ok to feel❤
Queen you made me emotional. First pregnancy is so hard. Im 25 and just had my girl . My 1st month was torture and i felt the body image problem so much as a bigger girl . Love you girl. Keep pushing ❤
"That was not a ghost, that was my cat" had me rolling 🤣 😂

Good to see you, girl! ❤ Hope you’re feeling ok!
We didn’t have a coffee table for 8 years because my kids were so hyper and always bonking their heads . 😂 I get it ❤
i missed you so much i started rewatching your videos from the beginning 😂
Never clicked so fast!! Absolutely love you and your videos been watching since the beginning ❤
I was just thinking about you! I’m glad moving seems to be going well. Love you! ❤
Ok but those 10 boxes were BIG. You’re doing great!
You doing great, this is all part of the process unfortunately. All will be worth it one you meet you precious baby!!

My dog and I love watching you 🥰🥰🥰
33 seconds ago?? I’ve never been this early. ❤🎉
10 boxes is a lot Sam don't be silly ❤
3:06 For some reason I was expecting to see a creepy face 😭😭😭

I swear by the eos lotion! But I'm super sad I missed the holiday scents. They were sold out so fast!
I felt the same pregnant! ❤

The change from Vlogmas Day X to Vlogmas 2024, because only being on day 6 by the 20th is……
