I think Fleur is such a great example of how content can evolve after having a baby. She still posts a lot of her pre-baby style content around beauty and home etc. but has also slowly merged some baby/mum content in too.
kirsten_ducky @lilypebbles I agree, I’m a slightly older viewer at 45 with two older teenage boys and I think Fleur de Force had a good balance both early on after giving birth and now with a good mixture of content. X
I completely agree, I was thinking of her too. She does it really well.
Yes I agree! I love her content!
I completely agree! Fleur has always been one of my fave YTers! She’s always been classy and down to earth!
She has also done a great job of showing some glimpses of her daughter, but not featuring the baby on her channel. The baby doesn't get to choose whether they're online, so I like Fleur's approach of fairly minimal exposure.
I love how realistic you are Lily, so relatable, sensible advice, responsible attitude towards others. A great influencer.
Frances Rose I agree 👍🏼
Yes, agree. That's why I love Lily's channel. In a world of online "perfection" it's nice to see someone who is relatable to you.
Frances Rose thanks so much that’s very kind xx
I love your baby content. I follow you because of YOU and your journey as a woman so you should keep showing us your experience in this crazy world. There are enough beauty or fashion videos I can watch but I am here for you.
Take all the time off you require. It isn't a holiday, you are raising a child! Know that there will be many loyal viewers remaining and excited for your return xx
LucyLuu completly agree 👌🏻
LucyLuu thank you x
Absolutely!
Hi Lily, I think Louise Petland is a good person to talk to/ look at. Because she shared a lot of Darcy as a baby and toddler but now has successfully phased her out, so that she’s only included if she wants to be and when there’s a specific event that is relevant and even then it’s kept to a minimum, usually Louise talks around her. Which is nice because you can do the children focused content, e.g. kiddies clothes hauls, but the babas need not feature.
I have so much respect for you for taking actual maternity leave! Obviously we will miss you, but I think it's the most sensible and healthy decision in the long run (for you and your baby and I think for your channel as well). I mean maternity leave is such a normal and natural thing for working women in most of Europe, so why shouldn't you be able to take it as well? X
Elizabeth A thanks for your support x
I‘m so glad your content changed! I think we are all at a similar age and i feel like we‘re growing together 😊
Can you and Anna do a video in mothercare (because Anna used to work there) I think it would be hilarious
yes! that would be so good
I've always been a fan of yours (watching your videos for like 5 years already) but I think that since you've put up the more adult content such as the wedding, renovation and especially pregnancy your videos have become even more enjoyable. I love to see how realistic, relatable and down to earth you are. Its amazing to follow your story, there are tons of beauty videos but none lifestyle ones that are like yours, so keep them up
In terms of putting your kids online, I love Louise Pentland's approach. Over the years, she has started to share less, especially now as Darcy is older, but shares more of the baby, Pearl. I would love for you two to do a collab as you are the few RUclipsrs I still love and watch! x
That would probably the best collab ever. I love how they both are so mature and honest with their audience.
I don't get why people keep saying this though because she shares A LOT of Darcy.
@@wa6184 Compared to what she used to share, she doesn't. Also, she's VERY selective with what she shares and has made a point about explaining this quite a few times x
You're doing such a great job these days. I love your content (I don't even want kids myself
I think it's good that your content is/will be changing. So many you tubers that I have followed for years, whilst being the same age as me, haven't grown up with me. I think it's good to be relaxed about the birth too. I wanted to start in the suite and have a pool but I was induced and little miss had other ideas... It was all fine in the end. Good for you taking time off too. You'll be amazed at how much your priorities change once she's here. X
My best advice for prospective new mums is to buy a day planner (ones where one day is a whole page) and take it in your hospital bag. When baby is born you use this to write EVERYTHING: including baby stats, memories, appointments, tips (you get from nurses, lactation experts etc..), sleep times, diaper details (poo, pee, colour of poo - doctors may ask about this at baby wellness visits, also lack of wet diapers later can indicate dehydration). I've had three girls and used a planner and I found it really helpful when doctor asks about the number and colour/consistency of poo and milestones. Also I would record the baby's normal temperature so I had something to compare to when they got sick. Also, you can get a sense of your baby's natural schedule by noticing patterns and then you can plan your day around their nap times etc... Lastly (altho should have been first), you can keep track of your breastfeeding so note down which side your fed from and for how long etc... Sorry this was long-winded but I wanted to pass on my knowledge and help you out! I'm sure you'll be an awesome mom! :)
The maternity/paternity leave in Europe sounds amazing. The US really needs to get on board and change our practice. I think it’s great that you’re planning a maternity leave for yourself. You and your family deserve that time together!
It's not selfish to build a career and enjoy your life to the fullest.
Aww this was so lovely Lily and real! I think your approach is spot on! Go with the flow, I thought I would need all the drugs and ended up having a water birth with my first and it was incredible, also incredible what your body is capable of...It’s a difficult time when the bubble stops and the visits stop, but I have a big family so I always had someone to pop in, I was driving about a month later again so I just got out is often as I could once the injections stage was over, we went to baby swim and sensory classes etc...Ahh it’s such a wonderful time so enjoy ever second of it. Unfortunately both of my pregnancies were awful with me being constantly hospitalised with hypermesis but it was worth it all as Harrison and Layla are 9 and 6 now 🥰 Anyways all the luck and love in the world to you and Rich x
My parent's are the age of many of my friend's grandparents so when you said you felt pressure to do things earlier because your parent's are older I really felt that. I have also been experiencing a lot of anxiety as I get older about the realization that one day I won't have them around anymore which full on freaks me out. It's nice to know other people are experiencing these same feelings.
Definitely be the person who constantly sends photos and videos, my sister had a baby six weeks ago and I can't get enough of the pictures and videos she sends!
This was so good!!! Loved your honesty!! We truly appreciate it. I love your baby content just as much as your old content because at the end of the day I watch this videos because of you and your personality
I was waiting massively for your Sunday video! Absolutely love how honest you are with us, your audience. Me as a person who has been watching you over last approximately 6 years gonna miss you loads on RUclips if you will disappear, but will make sure that I keep up with you on Instagram if you’re there at all! Don’t worry at all, exactly it’s a new chapter for your and your family (you, Rich and the baby) we all gonna understand it’s not easy to be on social media when you just had a baby! Will be waiting for you !
Also lastly, over the moon for you and Rich about having the baby! Congratulations ❤️😘
I loved this! You’re always so honest with us and I think that’s so amazing because you really don’t have to be. Thank you for sharing. I cannot wait for all that is to come!!xx
You’re so relatable, it’s such a breath of fresh air. I feel like if I were pregnant I’d be like you, I’d have similar worries, I’d do similar things. Loving the content!
I’ve really enjoyed your context ever since you’ve become open about speaking about your pregnancy experience. I am 31 and 14 weeks along with our first and it’s so nice to have someone like you to follow to help me through this! Thank you!
Fantastic video!! My only suggestion is to do a little research on what to expect once baby is born rather than just ‘wing it’. As a midwife I find soo many parents spend hours researching baby prams, bottles etc but nothing about what to do with the baby once they’re born ie normal sleep patterns, feeding patterns, settling techniques, normal bowel movements and urination and also how to recognise a good latch, milk transfer etc etc and I’m constantly being asked why their baby is crying a lot on night 2 after being born and parents not realising this is a totally normal thing and experienced by almost all parents...I’m sure as you’ve got sisters and nieces, nephews etc you’re more in tune with these things but it just surprises me how little research parents do on how to actually care for a baby and how to know if they’re thriving or not. Thank you for your very honest responses to all those questions! I’ve been loving all the pregnancy/baby content and I’m sure there’s lots of new subscribers (like myself!) now you’re pregnant so I wouldn’t worry about numbers and view count etc...just as you’re going into a different phase of life your followers may change but I’m sure many will stay the same as you’re very relatable ☺️
Yes definitely, I agree. I’m lucky I have my sisters and mum around and I’m also doing NCT which should help a bit x
Agree.....labour is the shortest part and everyone puts the most focus on it......the fourth trimester is the hardest and most rewarding and the least focused on!! Living the content x
LOVED this :-) Thank you and just wanted to say, you are looking fabulous while pregnant- good luck with the rest of it xx
I loved what you said in that last answer about being the one that is the most important person in someone’s life. I think it was really honest and encouragingly vulnerable. Does that make sense? Maybe not, but I found it really endearing 😌
PLEASE PLEASE take your time! And go with the flow. Take as much time off as you need and want to. We will be here :) I had a baby six months ago and I am just now really getting into doing what I want and need to but I will be off till Christmas ❤ Also the one tip I can offer that helped me sooo much was reading up on birth and labour so you are prepared for what can happen and then trust your midwives and go with the flow in the moment. That will give you controll, knowledge is power ❤
aw, this video made me feel so happy for all the good things to come for you, rich and your family.
Postnatal anxiety is real. I suffered from it badly. The most positive way I’ve seen somebody deal with this is Anna Sconny Joly (sorry if I’ve spelt her name wrong) After having her 4th child, she would get ready every morning and walk within her area with her baby. If I ever had a baby again I would do the same. Walking and getting out of the house can be a really great way to get some fresh air and this can really help with anxiety.
I used to the same - first thing in the morning, no matter how tough the night had been and how anxious I was feeling, i would just throw some clothes on and go for a walk with the baby. Everything seemed much better and more manageable after that!
Yes, get out of the house! With babies, children of any age. You have to get out or you go a bit nutty...or at least I do!
Love the honestly and candidness of your videos!! You’re such a level headed genuine mommy to be, so inspiring! Love your content and will love it once the baby is here too! 💕
I love it!!! Lily, take your time. We will be here when you come back! Work things are my number one scare when I think of having a baby, our generation is all the same! So proud of you for trying to be an exemple that is ok to leave! Sending my good thoughts for you and your baby!!
Thanks for sharing all of your A's to the Q's....love how organized and together you are with your pregnancy.
Love love love how honest and open you have been throughout your pregnancy. So much respect for it. And love that your saying your taking maternity leave. you'll never get that time back and should enjoy it while you can! You look absolutely beautiful in this video. ❤❤
Thank you so so much for this video, so lovely and realistic. Love this!
Love this video so much! So sincere, honest, funny and informative. Also loved how you stayed true to yourself, not promising things you can't promise and not hide your uncertainty or not yet knowing certain things. I could relate to you so well in this video (33 weeks here, yes.....you don't get used to the kicks) thank you, please do more of these ❤
I’m not pregnant nor have a baby , yet this video was so interesting to see. Love your content, Lily never change x
This was such a good video, caught myself smiling throughout. Loving all the content FYI!
You look so stunning in this video! I love the way you’ve approached answering all these questions, so well thought out and authentic. Loved watching this video as I feel like this time in my life in imminent so it’s good to hear a fresh and fair perspective from a wonderful woman like yourself. X
I like your plan for mat leave . Enjoy your time with your baby 👶🏼
Had to stop to comment. Please please please keep an eye on movement. I have two children. With my second I hadn't felt him move at 39 weeks for the day but as I was busy I didnt notice too much until the early evening. When I couldn't stir him with drinks, music etc I rang the hospital and went in with my Mum as my husband works in London. I thought it would be fine. Fast forward two hours and they gave me an emergency c section, my husband missed it. He had a knot in his cord and hsd pood. If I hadn't of gone in he wouldn't of survived, they told me I had saved his life. He is now 4. I had already lost my Dad to cancer the year before so this was a scary time.
My point is don't ever worry about going in feeling you are wasting their time, or leave it until the next day or think they are slowing down for Labour. I cannot stand people who scare expectant mum's and it's something I have never done. BUT with this I tell as many people as I can as it could save a life. Take care xx
As a mother of 3, I have to agree here. Movement is key, so getting to know how often baby would move or what would trigger movement is vital. Great advice and very well done for following your intuition, best gift us mothers have!!
@@annajames1065 Thank You! Thank God I did, my husband said at the time over message - maybe he's slowing down for Labour..we are both so pleased I didn't listen to him! It's just something I have to tell people now even though I hate adding worry xx
Deanne Winks absolutely. I totally agree. I’m so glad everything was ok for you in the end x
I'm the same stage as you Lily but based in Ireland. Advice I got on movement which I think is good is to know what's normal for your baby as opposed to x amount of kicks during the day. I know my little Bug is really active between 9 and 11am, chilled then until afternoon and then go,go,go until about 10.30pm. I know that I should ring the hospital if that changes and there's less movement at the times I expect. We were also told that baby doesn't slow down movement before labour at all, it's a myth, so reducing levels need to be checked out. @Deanie Winks glad all was ok for you in the end. x
@@lilypebbles Thanks so much Lily, we are so lucky and thankful. Good luck in your pregnancy ❤ x
We will wait for you no matter how long your maternity leave is ☺️😘😍lots of love from Madrid!🇪🇸😍☺️❤️😘
You are glowing Lily! Your hair looks so lush dark and long 😍 Love the content, keep it up. We’re here for you and your life/ journey!!
I love your content!! Can’t wait for all baby stuff!! Xxx
I think it's really great that you want to be an example and especially that you give yourself and the little baby girl that break! I will be watching your videos whenever you're back.
thank you for your honest, realistic and fun talk. I really really enjoyed it.
Really enjoying your content at the moment Lily, very informative and interesting. Very best of luck with baby x
Loved this video, Lily! You give some great advice 😁
This was so good!!! ❤️ I’m 20 weeks pregnant with my second and have been loving following along!!
Can’t wait for this! Shall be watching while eating my cereal 😜
I'm in the process of moving out of my parents house right now to move out for march 1st and this video is perfect to watch while i pack my bookshelves and desk items ☺️☺️ i love that you are giving yourself mat leave, it's so so important. Your body takes time to recover and that impacts your mental well being too, you need to let yourself fully heal.
Loved this video Lily! Really enjoying following you on your journey :) It sounds like you will probably have a similar approach to Fleur when it comes to what you are planning to share of your daughter and it seems to work nicely. It must be so scary when you share a lot of your life online and you have to make decisions like this that the average person wouldn't have to consider! You had me tearing up at the end with what you're excited about, so cute! Really excited for you and wishing you all the best xx
That was the sweetest answer, that you want to be that someone who someone needs the most. I think I feel that very strongly too, that wish to care for and about someone in a whole new way and intensity.
Thanks for sharing so many personal things with us, it's really nice to hear your point of view. Like Frances Rose commented, I really appreciate how realistic you are and feel like it's such a nice way to look forward to motherhood myself.
Loved this video, Lily! You seem to be very sensible and real about the whole thing
So sweet for taking the time to answer all our questions! Soo excited for you two 💞💞
I loved your video ❤️ I’m mentally getting prepared to get pregnant next year. Working on my body and mind, doing research now and then so I don’t get stressed when I’m going to actually be pregnant. This video helped me.
Love the way you expose your thoughts and the process you have while making a decision. 😘❤️
For snacks and food - Powerade was the only thing I could intake during the labour. Made me hydrated whilst giving enough power. We kept it in the cooler bag because I gave birth in July and it was hot in the birthing suite. Highly recommend (given that you like the taste of it). As for post labour - anything you like.
Enjoying your content so much ❤️ You are glowing 😊 Hope everything will go smoothly for you and Rich, can't wait for baby Fridge 👶
Lilly you will be great, just go with the flow. Enjoy it, they grow up in a blink of an eye. ☺️😘
This was such a lovely video and very informative.
Pregnancy suits you so much, you are truly glowing. :) I love this content, I am here for all of it.
Hi Lily, I don’t comment much but I felt very compelled to after watching your video. I’ve followed you for a long time, and am not in a similar life place as you ( I’m not pregnant, own a house / doing renos, married, etc.). Even though I’m not, I really do enjoy watching your content - maybe one day I’ll search your past videos when I’m in similar circumstances for reference.
One of the many things I enjoy most is that you have a variety - vlogs, beauty, real life things, etc. I just wanted to share that I am along for the ride of your pregnancy and mom life. Even though we don’t know each other I’m so happy for you, and I’m excited to see how you grow in this transition of life.
Another thing I really enjoy about your videos (and instagram) is that you are honest. To some it may come across as moany, but everyone has shitty days and times they feel like laying on the couch. And I appreciate that you don’t fake it and you rather tell it like it is!
I know I speak for a lot of your viewers that we will be here throughout your ‘maternity leave’ waiting for you and we are willing to wait however long you need. We understand this is a special time and encourage you to do it, we will be here waiting to welcome you back. We can’t wait to see her beautiful face and share in the joy you will be feeling !
Wishing you all the best in the remainder of your pregnancy and a healthy and happy birth.
Shelby (from Canada!)
Your pregnancy is racing by ... your wee bundle of joy will be here before you know it!
Hi Lily, as you mentioned maternity pay/leave: It's very true, that part of being self employed absolutely sucks. I had 3 weeks off and then went straight back to work teaching Yoga and it was way too soon, I felt so much pressure that my clients were going to leave me, miss opportunities etc. In case you wasn't aware/forgot or maybe just didn't mention in the video, do head to the gov.uk website to fill in your form and check how much maternity pay you can be owed being self employed. It's not much but every bit helps. Opportunities come and go, you won't be missing out on anything, the only thing you can't gain back is enjoying the time and experience getting to know your baby. I'm currently pregnant with baby no.2 and have a completely different attitude to what I did 5 years ago. You look amazing and I'm loving seeing this side of you.
Thank you for answering my Question Lily 💛 praying the rest of your pregnancy and birth xxx
I for one love how you content has evolved. It feels organic and I like that. Take your time after baby we will all be here when you are ready and happy to see whatever you and your husband choose to share about parenthood. All the best.
LOVE this Q&A and long videos from you because I just love your channel and personality! We’re so excited for you, Lily! 💕 You’re also inspiring me right now because I’m also pregnant (baby girl is due in August!). 💕
Ah, Lils this was SO lovely to watch! I was quite late on the Pebbles bandwagon and joined like a year ago but damn, woman I love you! haha I thoroughly enjoy your content and really feel like we're on the same wave-length so I wouldn't worry at all and totally trust your instincts with whatever you decide doing with your content in the coming months and years. As some people have mentioned in the comments, I think Fleur has had a very similar approach and as a long time viewer of hers, it felt very natural to transition along with her. Can't wait to hear the name and see if she has your or Rich's eyes which is probably the weirdest thing to say lol... oh and I am in love with your hair color in this light! Sending lots of love to you , Rich and Fridge! haha x
Best Q&A !! You make the best content in the whole youtubesphere
I've found this saying to be very true in regards to the newborn and also later stages: The days are long, but the years are short! If I may suggest, it's very important to feel the movements (not to count them or get obsessed, but know your own "normal" and follow any deviations from that) and call the hospital if they are not as usual. And I don't want to scare anyone, but better be safe. My doctor had a few cases where women didn't call the hospital and the next morning it was sadly too late. I also had a similar experience - woke up one morning and just felt that something is off. My daughter was never very active but that morning I could not feel her at all. Thankfully my midwife suggested I go to the hospital and long story short I was admitted, induced and at the end had an emergency C-section because the baby was in too much stress. And lastly, Lily this was such a great video!
Really enjoyed this video. I'm about the same stage in pregnancy. For us, getting pregnant wasn't fully planned - I'd come off my pill but we weren't actively trying. I feel very blessed for that. I'm also one of those people who sleep on my back and the struggle has been real to stay on my side! I've got a pillow that has a front & back support so kinda holds me in place which is great. I'm also glad to see you be so real about wanting to take time off, your followers will be here when you get back because I think we all appreciate that you want to spend as much time with your little girl in the beginning as possible. Enjoy it all! Oh & thanks for the tip in the earlier video about H&M jeans! How on earth did I make it to 25 weeks without those in my life!!
loved how truthful you were in the video answering those questions.
About hospital bag and snack - isotonic drinks to keep you going and some sweets for the sugar rush I'd say. Chances are you won't be thinking about eating.
Motherhood is the best/hardest journey there is, but it is so worth it xxx
I like how no-nonsense your are about everything! I can relate a lot, specially not having preconceptions about how the birth “should” be, etc. I think we’ll start trying at the end of this year, and I hope I stay as practical and relaxed about how I’m about everything with the pregnancy and future baby, just like you :)
Love this video!! So glad you were so honest...new mum here, my baby girl is 6 months old & I still use the bath thermometer, it was a gift, great for removing some new parents anxiety. Wishing you a happy & healthy pregnancy & birth x
This was definitely the most relatable baby video that I have watched. I'm currently 20 weeks pregnant and SO much of what you said and your opinions are exactly how I am feeling. Definitely made me feel less alone 😊 really enjoying the baby content!
Loved the video 💜 love how realistic you are about the whole thing. I think Fleur De Force has a nice balance of including River.
So open and honest. I have two children and am so excited to see your journey with your first. You will be a lovely mummy.
Having your own personal fan club is the best. ❤️ Those little chubby hands. I miss my kids being small, wah!
I can't put my finger on why, but I LOVED this video and Q & A. Real, thoughtful, practical, made me feel so at peace with my own life decisions and the pace of my life. Such an inspiration and it felt empowering somehow.
When I watch you it like I'm taking to a friend. I'm 32 and thinking about kids and it terrifies me. I can't just leave them and go to work. Thanks to being a great content creator and whatever you decide to do, I know I'll be excited to watch!
This was very cute! You seem so happy and relaxed
As much as I appreciate the effort you put into everything you upload, I think, ultimately, most of us watching your content do so because of YOU, you know? Personally, I love seeing you go through all of these milestones and love to see how YOU evolve as a person after going through them. I guess what I'm trying to say is that yes, your content will change after having a baby but I think it'll just be a new and exciting side of you that we're going to get to discover along with you. Whew! I don't think I've ever commented something this long lol, but I've been watching your videos for a long time Lily and I'm super excited for baby Pebbles to come! Congrats to you and Rich
so excited for you!!
I smiled all the way through this. You're such a wise and real person. Xx
I'm expecting my first baby in may so it's been wonderful watching your journey at the same time! It's interesting seeing your experience as a first timer too
I’ve only recently discovered your channel through your pregnancy content, and have to say I loved this video! I’m currently 21 weeks pregnant and can relate to so much you said - I really miss shopping as well 😂 which is something I hadn’t even considered! I think your maternity leave sounds perfect, you just have to do what’s right for you (not to sound like one of those people!) and live in the moment ❤️
such a good, honest and realistic attitude ! really enjoyed it
Hi Lily. I love be your content, whatever you do because it's always so real and honest. Thank you. Actually thinking about it, you're my favourite RUclipsr. I wish for you a happy, healthy baby, that sleeps well, feeds well and likes her own company. I got blessed with a boy that gave me time to myself, which helps with the sanity during the challenging time of adjusting to new life. Stay healthy and happy and strong and enjoy it. Oh, and trust your Mama-self! XX Lots of love
Yes!!! Sharon Farrells baby bag video was the best! Love that idea! 💗
What a lovely relaxed Sunday video! :) Your video and your realistic points of view overall made me really confident that I can do it, one day! :)
long time viewer. I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant and really appreciated this video!
Love this Lily!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I love your vids! Im 14 weeks pregnant with my first and totally agree with lots that you said RE first trimester. Lots of love ❤️
Great video ☺️ Re hospital bag, I wouldn’t pack too many snacks for labour. By the time you’re allowed into hospital you’ll be so far gone the last thing you’ll want to do is eat! However snacks are good for after the birth when you realise how hungry you are. Same for magazines, music, aromatherapy stuff. Save it for at home when you’re killing time waiting for things to get going. At hospital you’ll be in the zone! Good luck xx
Love your video! I've got to empathise with you on your worry about getting no sleep. Before kids I was the same as you, I couldn't function with little or no sleep. After my first child who woke up 3 times a night for about the first 9 months then once in the night until she was over 1yr old, I felt so terrible at times but I adapted to the lack of sleep and have actually felt much better with my second child. Don't get me wrong I have my tired moments but all in all I've adapted better than I thought I would. I hope it's the same for you (or your daughter is a better sleeper than mine was!) X
I’m single, absolutely no babies on the horizon, no babies in the family, I know no babies, but I still really enjoyed this! Also, I have to say how beautiful you look. Pregnancy suits you!
Loved, loved your video!!!! 😍😍
Your hair looks sooooo amazing!
It's so funny because I have done everything like you just about a year later. Getting engaged, getting married, buying a house, renovating the house. So I thoroughly enjoy your content because it's like a preview to the next stage of my life. I'm 27 so a few years younger.
snack on high calorie dense (nutritious) foods... for breast feeding particularly and general energy levels after pushing a baby out!
Also, your HAIR girl, sooooooo nice!
Mona S that was my first thought.
