Love your message of bouncing forward and not “bouncing back” I have an 8 month old son and only now starting to feel more normal and energetic in my life but it is a new normal. Thank you so much for that insight ❤️
Thank you for saying that things will get better. So many times, other moms will just be like “wait until THIS happens, then you really won’t sleep…” or something similar and it’s extremely discouraging. It’s nice to hear positivity and that there is a light at the end of the sleepless tunnel
I just want to say I really appreciate you sharing your struggles without talking down on motherhood in general. I’m so so sick of the “I hate being a mom” mentality…
Thank you so much! 6 months postpartum, and I’m finally emerging from the newborn fog and feeling like I don’t know who I am anymore. Great tips on embracing the new things and bouncing forward!
Thank you for sharing your journey! You are doing and looking great! I am currently about 7 months postpartum with my second baby and the one thing I would say is that it is a little bit more challenging the second time around on many fronts…and this pandemic is certainly not making it easier. A good reminder to us all: have some grace and patience with your body and all the changes you are going through. ♥️
These videos are so helpful! My kiddos are 4 & 5, yet hearing all of this helps me 💕 I’m on my 3rd round of postpartum PT- now pelvic floor specific and it can feel so disheartening not making the progress I want, but I have to remind myself I am progressing. Thank you for your candidness!!
I am 5 months pregnant and you are the most inspiring mama to me....I can relate to pretty everything about your outlook on life, fitness, mental health and nutrition. Thank you for being so real- you are SUCH A GEM!!!! 💜
Thank you so much for this video! I’m currently 3 months postpartum and I’ve been feeling a little insecure about my body, food choices and exercise. And thank you for sharing your supportive and caring mindset on healing and recovery. 💖
Thank you for this video!! I’m 8 mos PP and I am following your lead with a lot and learn so much!! ♥️♥️ thank you for the positivity because I was struggling with body image, I’ve also FINALLY seen my pelvic floor therapist and it has also helped so much!!
Loveee your videos! My 1st just turned 8-months, the last few months were SUCH a struggle omg. But always get some new helpful tips or just feel better watching your vids!
I love how you show real mom life and not hide it and show a perfect life like everything comes out just right . This makes women not feel alone and less stress . Well at least for me . Thank you 🙏
100% love your philosophy of intuitive eating on healthy foods. That’s what I have done postpartum and while nursing…really focused on eating well but no restrictions on calories…seriously always hungry because of nursing haha
Thank you Nicole, first time commenting but i regularly watch your videos, you inspire me in my motherhood, i also have first baby who is now 6 months so as you discover things with Sage i pick up all your good advices 😁🤭 Sage is adorable, love her 🥰
Wow so informative!!! I’m almost a year postpartum and definitely love everything you mentioned. It does take time. Thank you for this. Also, Sage near you while you were working out is the realest shit I’ve ever seen as a mom LOL!
You look amazing. I am 9 months postpartum and slowly beginning to feel like myself again. The videos you shared are very helpful. Thank you. All the best.
Thanks for sharing. I'm almost 6 months postpartum and definitely craving feeling like my old self again. I say that about the 4 month regression all the time. At least with the NB stage you're still hopped up on hormones to keep you running. That 10 lbs that stick around is definitely tricky, I plan to do as you said and just really focus on what I'm eating. Since calorie restriction isn't great for anyone let alone while breastfeeding. I'm just starting to feed purees this week so I really hope your secret project is a baby cookbook! And I hope it digital! Paper + kitchen is always a recipe for disaster for me.
Hi. I love all your channel! Your tmi story had me laughing so hard! And then when you were exercising and Sage bopped you the second time I lost it again!🤣 Thank you for your honesty and for sharing your life with us. 🙂💜
I appreciate how real you are. The upclose body update was helpful. I’m no where near that after baby#2 lol I wish I looked like you ❤ I’m on a calorie deficit while breastfeeding and I’m staaaarving at 6mpp
I’ve been following you from the very beginning but your videos just keep getting better and better. As a new mama I find these chats to be so encouraging, refreshing and honestly make me cry because I realize I’m not alone. Thank you for taking the time to make other moms feel heard and understood! 💕
I just noticed you moved. Congratulations on your new home. Sagie has grown so much and she’s walking. Omg🤗 sorry I’ve missed so much… I just had a unmedicated birth two weeks ago and this is my third baby and only son. Hi cashew hi Matt.. you look great Nicole ❤️
I've never been so grateful to relate to someone peeing themselves... I had an emergency c-section 9 months ago and laughing postpartum is excruciating! I was sitting in our brand new glider and my husband made me laugh. In trying not to laugh because of the pain I literally started peeing and could NOT stop! Which of course was even more hilarious! I'm just so thankful I had towels down for whatever reason because the glider would have been destroyed! 🤣
Can I just say that although I don’t have children I think you’re so awesome to share your private journey as a mom. Also wanted to mention that you look noticeably thinner since the past month
I got a horrible & painful clogged milk duct (thankfully it didn’t turn into mastitis) after doing an ab workout when I about a month postpartum. Moving at a slower pace postpartum is so underrated! I will definitely be moving at a slower pace for my next baby even when I feel my mind feels like I need to be moving at a faster pace.
I'm 3 months PP and this is so helpful to get an idea of what to expect. Just coming out of that 4th trimester that was pretty brutal and I'm starting to feel human again lol everything is SO different! but in the best way possible...
I so appreciate your honesty and body positive outlook. I feel like as women both we and the media put a lot of pressure on moms and ourselves to “ Get back their pre pregnancy bodies.” Which is a bit insane, we spend 9 months literally growing a human putting our bodies under huge amounts of stress and physical changes. So many women experience postpartum depression or trauma from labour, not to mention exercising intensely is prohibited for the first 4-8 weeks after delivery. I think exercise is super important after giving labour but working your way up to walking 1-2 hours and caring for your baby can be a sufficient workout. I find exercise is most important for faster recover and to gain strength and mobility back. We need to focus more on projecting the message of healing and strengthening our bodies after birth and let the weight loss come naturally and gradually. Which can take 9 months or more. Thank you for mentioning pelvic floor strengthening. It’s so often overlooked . People rush into a workout regimen and hurt themselves because their body is still recovering.
I love this video. Thanks for sharing. Also when you were working out and Sage kept hitting you in the head, was so #momlife. Also “I drink water, herbal tea, herbal coffee and wine” 😂 so good.
i just so so so appreciate your positive message regarding body and caring for yourself. thank you for clarifying you are not a weight loss channel. you enjoy life and do not let things like food, body, etc. hold you back from living! as a new mamma, your approach to life in this area is one of the reasons i love your channel. you are such an inspiration, and i adore you and all you bring forward to the world!
I make your cookie dough protein balls ALL THE TIME! We love them so much and always keep them in the freezer. I have also figured out how to wing it to make about 2 of them when I run out in the freezer.
10.5 months postpartum here with first baby. Stated to feel better like a month ago... feeling a bit more like myself. But hard to find balance and time and still need more sleep. Such a huge life change. Can totally relate to peeing on the floor and the pandemic and the whole thing about not being able to connect with other mothers… mommy groups and stuff like that.
I totally had one of those poop moments lol. It was about 3 days after having baby and while I was changing her diaper on my bed, she just exploded poop all over my chest and face, the whole head board and wall behind me.. It was in my eyes and mouth even. I can't even remember what I did with baby as I ran to the bathroom lol. Horrible but hilarious now lol.
😂 when Sage bonked you in the head with things I couldn't contain my laugh lol. Totally relatable as a mom of 2. You can't do much without constant interruptions 😅😂
Can I just say how comforting it is to see sage switch back and forth. I honestly thought my daughter was the only who did that lol I feel like most kids nurse finish them go to the next one hahaha
I usually never comment but let me just say that we’ve never related more lol when you started singing the song from the toy. That is the story of my life. I have a 9 month old he’s starting to get bored of the same old toys.
Their is a lot of research on waiting 3 years or more to get minerals, nutrients back. Cus you lose 4 lbs of minerals in pregnancy. Which is important for mama and babies
Dear Nicole, I've been watching your videos since a long time and even more since you had a baby. I have a one year old too. I really appreciate the content you are creating, both baby and food related. The only thing that I mind lately is the duration of those videos. They are a bit too long. I often skip your new videos because I cann't afford to take 30 min or more to watch it. Otherwise, all the compliments to everything you are doing 🤗
You can also listen to it at 1.5 x speed if it doesn't wierd you out. I do it sometimes for factual RUclips videos when I want to just listen to the information being shared
Thanks for your advices 🤗 But watching in several times or at 1.5 x speed is not something I enjoy. For this video in particular I understand that it had to be long if there is so many questions. But for the rest, I believe it could be shorter and still not lose on quality.
@@milicadjajic9166 I understand, her voice is soothing and I watch it at normal speed too. I don't mind watching more scientific / teaching material stuff at higher speed and find the chipmunk voices entertaining 🤣 I guess watching it in pieces like others suggested is a better option. Think of it as a mini series 😆
I had a very traumatic birth story, but one memory that brought my husband and I to tears bc we were laughing so hard was when my water broke and I am sitting on the edge of the hospital bed with it gushing all over the floor, all over my husband and then I started peeing but couldn't tell if it was still my waters or pee 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I mean everything was soak around me and on the floor and my poor husband 🤪
Nicole : dont restrict on food. It makes you body goes in starvation. Me (15months since my last anorexic restrictions) : amen. It take years to reverse that mode sometimes. My doctor works hard with me on food. Big changes that were made to help me be healthy And LOOSE WEIGHT : whole fat milk, tones of nuts, grains, fruits and veggies galores... You hungry after diner??? Get more! Since doind that ive lost 15lbs!!!! Eating more good stuff sometimes means inches off! On top being more healthy. Also learning to eat without guilt. A big favorite of mine lately, chips with peanut butter.
Like you said the number (lb) does not say anything. I went back to my pre pregnancy weight in less than 2 weeks but my body look like I was 4 month pregnant for a while. I never really came near my pre pregnancy body and now I am pregnant again less than a year after. I really don’t care. I agreed on feeling healthy more than anything.
Will my waist ever go back to what it was? I am 10 months pp and everyone tells me that I look great, but I can’t fit ANY of my pre-baby clothes. It’s not even close. My waist is 4 inches bigger than pre baby. I don’t have any diastasis recti.
I gained 65lbs during pregnancy and nursing did NOT help me lose weight lol and I wasn't even overeating. had been stuck at 145 for months postpartum (I'm normally 115-120). I just weighed myself 11 months pp and I'm at 134 without even trying. I think when I stopped thinking about weight is when it starts to come off
I do think there is something to not stressing out about it and just focusing on healthy habits and allowing your body to finds its healthy weight. Thank you for sharing this I think its so nice for other mamas to hear
I 💯 relate to you! I am glad you are feeling like yourself again that’s great and encouraging for others who read your comment. I sort of had a similar journey to Nicole when it comes to the weight loss and gaining some strength back in the core & PF but my second pregnancy took a heavier toll on my body. I have gained quite a bit more weight (20 lbs heavier this time) and 2 sizes at least. I still don’t feel 💯 like myself and tend to think of my current body as a “temporary” body, which I do realize is not very positive, and I have also been dealing with chronic pain on the right side of my body which has gotten worse this time and made it hard for me to be as active as I would like, but I am still giving it my best and trying to be patient. We will all get there…whatever that means for everyone! ♥️
I relate to this. My daughter is breastfed and 6m old.. I lost a lot after giving birth, then gained some, and at 5ish months I naturally started looking closer to my pre-pregnancy body, but without trying.. I had decided I was going to go with the flow until I weaned and had no expectations.. our bodies are magical
Love the poop story lmao 😂, after I had my oldest daughter the nurse came in told me to chew these tablets I asked her what they were. She said oh for gas it helps move things along, 2 hours later more tablets to chew. Fast forward 6 hours later I'm yelling at my husband help me get up I have diarrhea!! Omg 😳 the nurse pumped me full of laxatives. Later that night I remember begging the night nurse to stop giving me them to me ..
Hi Family 😘😘😘😘 Omg Mr.Matt 🥰 So Adorable 🤗 loved that Moment when he touch 🍑 's Head 😭 loved how he helps reminds me of my Hubby 😘 sometimes I'm into so much stress n he comes n help me cook wash dishes we should appreciate what they do👍for us to make us feel better 🙏take care😘😘😘😘 n Nik u look Amazing 😘
I'm 18 months Post Partum and Im still feeling exhausted, no energy, getting no sleep and my hair is literally falling out.my Toddler has never slept through the night😭
@@shannassecret4225 I've tried many things including teas for my stress...unfortunately nothing has worked so far. I have high daily stress and very little sleep that's probably why I'm so drained and tired all the time. Plus my son wants to nurse 4x a night! I havent had a break since his birth...I'm literally at home with him 24/7. We have no family or friends in our area to take him once in awhile and my husband works 6 days a week sun up sun down. Oh and my son has never taken a nap during the day! Ever! Only on my back or my arms....so no break there either! 😭
My 9 month old has pooped all over me 2 times. The first time was the day she was born. After I pushed her out and as they were putting her in my chest she pooped all over me.. The second time I was changing her diaper on my bed and she projectile poops just like sage did. It’s was all over my dresser, my arm, shirt, and carpet😂
Love your message of bouncing forward and not “bouncing back” I have an 8 month old son and only now starting to feel more normal and energetic in my life but it is a new normal. Thank you so much for that insight ❤️
I feel exactly the same and I wish there more influencers showing this side 🙏💕
It really does take some time and I personally was surprised it took me a good year because no one really talks about it
Same girl, I literally did not feel like myself and even loathed seeing my body at one point but am doing much better
Finding the ‘woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth’ ebook should be your top priority, even if it’s the last thing you do in life
Thank you for saying that things will get better. So many times, other moms will just be like “wait until THIS happens, then you really won’t sleep…” or something similar and it’s extremely discouraging. It’s nice to hear positivity and that there is a light at the end of the sleepless tunnel

Your body healed amazingly! I was impressed by your body pre-baby, during pregnancy, and after! So cool
Thank you for sharing your journey! You are doing and looking great!

3 months postpartum here and it feels GOOD to hear your experience ❤️🙌
Hope you’ll have a wonderful weekend! Your blogs are great to watch!
I literally toppled off my elliptical when Sage started running interference on your postpartum exercises! Thanks for the much-needed chuckle.

I laughed with you at your story of Sage as a newborn. :) I always enjoy your videos and look forward to them every week!
🤪
Omg your tmi story was so funny 😂 I don’t have kids yet, but this helps to demystify postpartum. Thank you for sharing!
I wasnt sure if I was going to share the full story but why not lol

Love seeing your videos !! Sage is growing up so fast 🥺 your videos always make my day 💓
I couldn't agree more, I get so excited when I see that notification
I know she's so big now!
Love this! Thank you 😁♥️🌼
I’m legit LOL’ing out loud after your pelvic floor peeing story omg.
LOL you welcome
I've never been so grateful to relate to someone peeing themselves... I had an emergency c-section 9 months ago and laughing postpartum is excruciating!

I'm just so thankful I had towels down for whatever reason because the glider would have been destroyed! 🤣
I'm six weeks post partum and a first time mom. I found this video so helpful! Thank you for the inspiration.
I hope it wasnt too long! I had a lot I wanted to fit in
Can I just say that although I don’t have children I think you’re so awesome to share your private journey as a mom. Also wanted to mention that you look noticeably thinner since the past month
I got a horrible & painful clogged milk duct (thankfully it didn’t turn into mastitis) after doing an ab workout when I about a month postpartum. Moving at a slower pace postpartum is so underrated! I will definitely be moving at a slower pace for my next baby even when I feel my mind feels like I need to be moving at a faster pace.
Off-topic, new hair color looks great!
You are wonderfully refreshing!
❤️🙌So informative! I love your videos. My little guy is almost six months old.
Hey! Your videos are so informative and fun! Thank you! Where did you got Sage’s chair? 😊
I'm 3 months PP and this is so helpful to get an idea of what to expect. Just coming out of that 4th trimester that was pretty brutal and I'm starting to feel human again lol everything is SO different! but in the best way possible...

I PRAY I look like you at 1 year postpartum. You look so good.
Oh my gosh! I'd love to hear Matt's perspective on the poop/pea story you told. 🤣😂
You and your body impress me so much 🥰
I’m dying at all the hiccups during the exercising 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Same!!!! Girl same!!!!
This is my favorite video of yours, HealthNut Nutrition. Nikole, I wish you had been around when I first became a mother.
Aww 🥰
Loved it 🤎
I make your cookie dough protein balls ALL THE TIME! We love them so much and always keep them in the freezer. I have also figured out how to wing it to make about 2 of them when I run out in the freezer.
Im making them tomorrow!
Is it just me or did I just listen to Sage telling her Mom at 18:22 "no, no don't do that" 🥺🤣 when she was fastening her high chair
She's so cute 😍
You are relatable & I’m so thankful for your channel. Thanks for posting your content. 😃
That salad looks sooooo good! Recipe coming soon?

It was in my eyes and mouth even. I can't even remember what I did with baby as I ran to the bathroom lol. Horrible but hilarious now lol.
Yes yes yes...to real life postpartum ❤❤❤❤ We have had very similar experiences 😆🤣😂🥰
Anyone else hoping the secret project is a toddler food cookbook? 😍 Whatever it is I'm excited!
All will be revealed very soon!
😂 when Sage bonked you in the head with things I couldn't contain my laugh lol. Totally relatable as a mom of 2. You can't do much without constant interruptions 😅😂

I also wasn’t sure if other babies did that but it’s comforting to know for me too!
Awesome !
Thanks for this! Love your channel! What kind of meditation do you do?
I do recorded ones I got from my hypnotherapist so I dont have a link but you can find so many guided ones online. I'll try to share some soon!
Your so awesome!
Ok, that salad.....can we PLEASE have the recipe for the buffalo chicken Ceasar salad? You're making me so hungry haha
I usually never comment but let me just say that we’ve never related more lol when you started singing the song from the toy. That is the story of my life. I have a 9 month old he’s starting to get bored of the same old toys.
I cannot find the links to the workout videos you liked to help with diastasis recti? thank you!:)
U are amazing 🥰
Their is a lot of research on waiting 3 years or more to get minerals, nutrients back. Cus you lose 4 lbs of minerals in pregnancy. Which is important for mama and babies
Cute video with sage!!! She's a great eater!!! ♥🍜👍☺
Lovely 💜
A Baby Cook Book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How did you make the buffalo chicken for the salad?
Have you ever done a video about baby proofing your home? I haven't seen that...
Can you do a relationship topic post baby after a year?

I just weighed myself 11 months pp and I'm at 134 without even trying. I think when I stopped thinking about weight is when it starts to come off
I do think there is something to not stressing out about it and just focusing on healthy habits and allowing your body to finds its healthy weight. Thank you for sharing this I think its so nice for other mamas to hear
I 💯 relate to you! I am glad you are feeling like yourself again that’s great and encouraging for others who read your comment. I sort of had a similar journey to Nicole when it comes to the weight loss and gaining some strength back in the core & PF but my second pregnancy took a heavier toll on my body. I have gained quite a bit more weight (20 lbs heavier this time) and 2 sizes at least. I still don’t feel 💯 like myself and tend to think of my current body as a “temporary” body, which I do realize is not very positive, and I have also been dealing with chronic pain on the right side of my body which has gotten worse this time and made it hard for me to be as active as I would like, but I am still giving it my best and trying to be patient. We will all get there…whatever that means for everyone! ♥️
I relate to this. My daughter is breastfed and 6m old.. I lost a lot after giving birth, then gained some, and at 5ish months I naturally started looking closer to my pre-pregnancy body, but without trying.. I had decided I was going to go with the flow until I weaned and had no expectations.. our bodies are magical
Love the poop story lmao 😂, after I had my oldest daughter the nurse came in told me to chew these tablets I asked her what they were. She said oh for gas it helps move things along, 2 hours later more tablets to chew. Fast forward 6 hours later I'm yelling at my husband help me get up I have diarrhea!! Omg 😳 the nurse pumped me full of laxatives. Later that night I remember begging the night nurse to stop giving me them to me ..

I'm 18 months Post Partum and Im still feeling exhausted, no energy, getting no sleep and my hair is literally falling out.my Toddler has never slept through the night😭
@@shannassecret4225 I've tried many things including teas for my stress...unfortunately nothing has worked so far.
I have high daily stress and very little sleep that's probably why I'm so drained and tired all the time. Plus my son wants to nurse 4x a night!
I havent had a break since his birth...I'm literally at home with him 24/7. We have no family or friends in our area to take him once in awhile and my husband works 6 days a week sun up sun down. Oh and my son has never taken a nap during the day! Ever! Only on my back or my arms....so no break there either! 😭
Oh that's awful!! I'm so sorry 😭
I forgot to mention this I loved that Brand in this very moment 👀 I'm eating Cereal 😋 cascadian farm organic ❤ the farmland 🙆♀️Omg how funny😅🤣😅😄👍

This channel makes me smile so much :)
She doesnt know it but she inspired our family to vlog too
Feel like my arms just look so bad idk ive gotten lazy and she hangs in the playpin lol everytime i go walking with her i like gorge after 🤷🏻♀️ 😅
I have to say I have a different opinion on this channel than before.
that does not tell us anything... but of course having a baby changes everything.
My 9 month old has pooped all over me 2 times. The first time was the day she was born. After I pushed her out and as they were putting her in my chest she pooped all over me.. The second time I was changing her diaper on my bed and she projectile poops just like sage did. It’s was all over my dresser, my arm, shirt, and carpet😂
