I remember the episode in which you all gave the miscarriage news, and now the Lord has restored you exceedingly and abundantly-much more than we could ask! Welcome back
A time came when I realized that as a parent I just had to let go and let God because ultimately, these children belong to Him. Hyper-vigilance added so much unnecessary stress. When I made a conscious decision to let go of "anxiety based" parenting and embraced "faith based" parenting, I experienced such liberation and I know that it had a positive effect on my child. Now I feel so relaxed and parent with ease because I fully trust God that the ultimate well being of my child is in the hands of the One who created them.
I was pregnant too same time as you but I lost my baby few days to delivery that's the most heartbreaking time knowing you won't come out with your baby out of the hospital.But I chose to give God all the praise even in sorrow am still in my healing process I don't know how to handle cause everytime I see a pregnant mother I get emotional or babies.Also hospital am scared everytime I go for check up am reminded the days I was pregnant and makes me breakdown. Seeing videos of other testimonials gives me a great therapy hopefully God will see me through.
Pole sana my dear, I have been where you are and want to acknowledge your bravery in sharing this. May God be your comfort he will heal and restore. Continue to lean on Him and take it 1 day at a time.
God, I forgot how much I lovvveee the Joyride!❤ Welcome back, Ben and Wanjiru🎉 And congratulations on your baby boy😊 Wishing you a year of fulfilling experiences and wonderful surprises, this 2025. May parenthood be joyful ride for you both🥰
First of all Major congratulations to you Ben & Wanjiru🥂🥂🥂. I have been following you guys from the days of outfits, Ben doing your makeup! Love to see how far you guys have come and the progress! Just wanted to put this out there as a mum, one thing we are never told about especially as a first time parent is the fourth trimester aka the newborn stage! As the mum you will feel like your life has come to a stand still, my mum used to tell me, "you are like gari haina pumzi, lol". The baby is super dependent on you and you can barely function well independently. This trimester is the hardest for sure! Crazy thing is, its is twice as worse for boy mums, don't understand why lol. One thing for sure is that this is when you get to really bond as a couple and see who your partner really is. Once you get through this trimester, trust me, everything is all systems go!. Take it a day at a time, its new for both of you and same thing applies to baby T. He is getting used to the world, he was used to being in the belly. Also, I love how you support each other, your love is so pure! Parenthood is the best hood for sure. I love my partner even more after child birth! Also time flies, before you know it, Tawa will be 3, then 5 the 21 lol.. all the best in this new season! 🥰🥰
WOW! I wanted to watch this 7 times!! Thank you for this conversation. As a fellow mom in the 4th trimester with an 8-week-old, I related fully to everything you talked about. I'm super excited for the rest of this season. Congratulations once again to the two of you! Parenting looks great on you. May God crown you with wisdom and more favor in this joyride.
I thoroughly enjoy listening to you two! You have been so intentional in how you exist with and around each other and I'm glad we get a peek into it. Congratulations on your new baby, I know you are great parents!😊
You had me in tears when you spoke about postponing the doctor's visit for a heartbeat, waah, that must have been hard, my heart goes out to you two, praying for your healing. Happy that Tawa is here now, congratulations🎉 To God be the glory.
Joyride is back and all is right with the world. Hallelujah! Fam growing. Tawa❤ is a beautiful name. Hongera Mama na Baba Tawa🎉🎉.Wanjiru glow✨. More Grace to you🙏🏾🙏🏾.
Hi Wanjiru and Ben, congratulations on your bundle of joy❤. I’m a mum too we are 3 months soon 4 to a beautiful baby girl. I have been doing this motherhood thing alone since i was pregnant because the BD was too proud to even support me, at some point i became homeless because I couldn’t pay my rent but God is Faithful i made it through. The love i have fir this little girl is unconditional ❤❤ i hope to see more videos of parenthood here😅. Been a joyrider from the beginning of this pod ❤
So happy Joyride is back🎉🎉 the other thing that 1+1=3 is marriage. Two become one and then God holds that marriage together. I believe marriage, also should be 1+1=3
I'm screaming im crying all the way from Australia. CONGRATULATIONS mama and baba!!! wanted to fly back down to KE just to feel like I am a part of something here 😂🥳
Congratulations dearones!! I feel like hugging Wanjiru, I feel like she needs a warm hug and space to scream coz Wuehh motherhood apana mchezo!! She sounds more serious, little giggles 🤭. We thank God. All the very best 🙏🥰
Im so hooked on this ...i loooooovee how engaging it is and to think im not a parent or interested to be but i still find this interesting is just amazing🎉
This is so relatable, and thank you for sharing your story. I have twin boys 1 year 4 months now. The sleep bit becomes non existent with 2 babies. You feed one, just as you are about to go to sleep, the other one wakes up. It does get easier with time though. The first 3 months were the hardest for me. To top it up, they were preterm I had to stay in hospital for the 1st month of their life. This is where we glorify God for the miracle of life, may His name be lifted high. Wanjiru, you are doing a great job!!! Ben thanks for supporting her.
This episode was such a treat ♥️♥️So happy to have you guys back! Congratulations once again and I'm 💯 sure that you're great parents. More grace to you 🤍🤍🤍
Let me tell you Maina!!!!Night feeds are HARD!!!! I remember i used to cry and even sleep holding my baby because the thought of putting her back in her crib was just too much. My husband was there, he would wake up with me but still yoooooh. On the resentment part i never actually thought about it but the way my body changed with the cs scars i felt some type of way, I still do even now. Definitely Greatest Love of all
I love this!!! Wanjiru looks amazing. Ben umejaribu 😂 and thank you for coming back and recognizing women's labour in mothering and why compensation is valid.
Pregnancy after a loss is a complete mind f**k! The anxiety and the meds you have to take to optimize the pregnancy leave you feeling like you are having an out of body experience. It gets hard to enjoy the pregnancy. Only after you have your rainbow baby do you feel like you can exhale. We need to have these conversations more as many people are clueless about these situations.
Wooow.i just love that you are back.with love love love.and some of us we are learning from you ❤❤Thank you so much..we pray God to give you more stories.we love you❤❤❤❤❤
As someone who has been pregnant 4 times and has three kids, it doesn’t get easier with each subsequent child....tuambianange tu ukweli imagine 😂. Let's manage expectations.
I remember the episode in which you all gave the miscarriage news, and now the Lord has restored you exceedingly and abundantly-much more than we could ask! Welcome back
I like the honesty of this conversation. Parenting is hard. Motherhood is hard. Thank you for this.
and i keep saying these is my favorite podcast for the real conversations.
Yani Ben n Wanjiru ni wazazi , How life has changed for these two is crazy . Am happy for you guys f

Wow. Two things, having a child has really magnified how healthy your dynamic is and y'all bring out the beauty in a baby having two loving parents.
5:03. Ben just wakes up to tell me, "you're doing a great job"🙌🏾🙌🏾😂😂😂
God, I forgot how much I lovvveee the Joyride!❤
