Thanks so much 🥹 That’s a huge compliment!!
Congratulations on your baby boy!! All Praises to the Most High that you and baby are doing well!🤎🙏🏽
Thank you so much!! 💗💗💗
What a blessing that you went to the doctor and not try and ignore the symptoms. So many times we as women worry about others and not ourselves. Thank you for sharing your story, many women will be helped if they go through a similar situation. Congratulations to you and your husband, on your handsome baby boy, adding to you guys beautiful family.
Exactly! We really do!! So scary 😭 Thank you so much for watching and your kind words 💗
I'm so glad this medical scare didn't turn into something worse. I'm glad you're on the path towards healing. I know what it's like to suddenly lose a mother at a fairly young age so this story was particularly touching to me. What a blessing that you're now a mother of 3. I remember when you had JUST moved to Namibia. It's amazing how time flies. Anyways it's always great getting a life update from you. Until next time wishing you a healthy life.
Hiii! You’re one of my original subscribers!!! I never forgot you or our similar experiences of losing our mothers 🫂 Thank you so much for your continued support of my channel all these years. 🙌🏾🩵
Last time I watched you only had your first born son. Wow God is good. Congratulations mama 💜
Right! So much has changed and time flies!! 🤯 Thank you for sticking watching! 💗
We missed you. Please don't leave us any longer😊🥹❤
Thank you so much! I miss you all too ❤❤❤
I'm so glad you are recovering. You and your husband have beautiful children! Ekandjo is an absolute doll baby! Please take care of yourself and make another video soon.
I'm grateful that you are recovering well and that your mother-in-law is loving and helpful to you and your family.
Beautiful baby and family. Thanks for sharing your experience with us. Our people who are still living in the usa still need to see your great experience to encourage them to leave.
I’m thankful too and thank you so much for watching!! 🙌🏾❤
Your videos are so beautiful, so positive. I love your story. 🇯🇲 1 💕 love. Namibia, Namibia 🇳🇦. You have such a wonderful family.
Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m a Kenyan in the uk and the hymns your husband and mother in law were singing reminded me of home, same hymns, different languages ♥️
Wow! They’re very beautiful! I enjoy them a lot 🎵 🙌🏾
I'm glad that you are alright.
Please remember to wear compression socks whenever you travel long distances (car, plane, etc), walk, or have any medical procedure. So glad you are okay!
Yes absolutely!! Thank you so much for saying that! Especially for those long haul flights to visit the US!! Appreciate your support ❤❤❤🫂
So glad you’re well! Continued prayers for your health and wellness! Also congrats on your new little bundle of joy! You’re such an inspiration for me as a solo traveler ❤😊✨🙏🏽✨
That makes me smile ♥️ Thank you!!!
Thank God u went to the hospital for early diagnosis and treatment! And that baby girl with you ! U got the best friend for ever !
Congratulations to you and Family! Ekandjo is soooooo cute. All thanks and praises to the Most High. Good to know you are well.
When you began describing the symptoms, I immediately thought it sounds like a pulmonary embolism. My grandfather died at 45 years old from a pulmonary embolism. His was due to being in a diabetic coma for a month a therefore not ambulating. His started as a DVT in the leg and traveled into the lung. I’m so happy you followed your gut. So many people do not. 🙏🏾
Yes, the symptoms are so easy to brush off!!! They’re tricky and that’s whats also so frightening and dangerous about them! So sorry about your grandfather; 45 is very young! 😞 Thank you for sharing his story ❤️ and for watching! 💗
Wooww! I’m glad you listened to your body. Praise The Most High you’re alright and have a wonderful community around you. It seems like the hospitals are great there! ❤❤ Take it easy and enjoy the new baby.
Same!! 😮💨 And yes! I have had excellent health care providers!! 🙌🏾👌🏾❤
That song in the beginning. and the end..so beautiful. Thank God for His grace and mercy! You are a warrior, and I'm sure your mom is proud of you for sharing your testimony and her memory. Thank you for not giving up on your channel; you were my first introduction to the possibility to move to southern Africa (that spider video! 😆)
I wish you a smooth and speedy recovery.
I'm soooo glad you are OK! I have been waiting for your return. What a beautiful bundle of joy! You are truly blessed to have your mother in-law. Sorry to hear about your mother. 🌹
Beautiful video Kaylin. I’ve been watching you for years and this is my first comment🙂. Baby is beautiful and strong. So happy you are ok. I’m a 🇨🇦 Nurse, don’t forget to wear compression stockings for long distances. Also, needles can be stored in a plastic container (ie. old jug) and taken back to pharmacy for disposal. Continued blessings to you and your family🙂🙂
Thank you so much for watching all these years and for the important advice!! Taking notes on all of it! ✍🏾 💗
The song in the last clip is so fitting. Praising Jesus, especially the part in the song that says “he carries all my burdens”. Thank you for sharing your experience, as someone who is not a parent yet but am in the planning stages this is type of information I would never have known about. We thank God that you are alive and on the road to recover. And welcome to the world little Ekandjo.
Kaylin, I'm so glad that you pay attention to symptoms and not just brush them off as something else. Your children are beautiful and we need you to be around for them for many more years. All my best wishes to you and your family.
I am 82 now living in Queretaro, and I had a c section at 37. Rebecca will be 45 on 3 17 2025. i was widowed, when she was 7. My only child. She teaches in Bali.
Sending hugs Judi! 🫂🩷
God bless you my dear sister, wishing you a quick recovery xxx
Glad you are doing well and your son is so handsome ❤❤❤ May God cover you and your family And Psalms 91 ❤❤❤❤
Omg, all of your babies are gorgeous 😍
Thank you so much!! 🥹💗💗💗
I’m so glad you caught this and you’re on the mend. Thank you for raising awareness!
Absolutely!! Thank you so much for watching ❤❤❤
Beautiful video!! The singing edits were perfection. Great job!! ❤❤❤
Thanks so much sis!! 🫂🩷
The babies are beautiful!!! Praying for total healing
Thank you! 🙏🏾❤️
Hi Kaylin and hubby. Congrats to no.3. Missed your shares...I wish you "centuries" of health. God be with you & fam.
Thank you!! 🩵
Wow! This is a wonderful story. I am so happy you listened to your body and you have such a supportive community of people around you.
God be praised. So happy you listened to your body and got needed care. God bless you and your beautiful family.
Thank God for your health, Sister🙏🏿. Congrats on the baby boy, another king. You have nothing to apologise for, your video is perfect and very calming, as per usual❤❤❤❤❤
Thank God you're fine and the baby as well. Great family.
So glad you didn't ignore those symptoms and even more glad that you have trusted medical professionals! I had a Jamaican friend tell me when I told her I wanted 10 kids, "Kids take life from you. Have 2 and sit down." LOL I laughed so hard because she was sharing serious wisdom. Giving life does take a little from you but its worth it. I can't wait to be a mom and I'd like 4 instead of 10 LOL. I wondered why did you chose to have a C-section instead of a natural birth?
He is sooooooooo adorable!! I'm happy for you and your family. Also glad to hear you are well! ❤🎉
Thank you so much!! 💗
@@AfroAmericaninAfrica You're welcome 😊 ❤️
Glad that you are well! Baby is beautiful!
Wishing you a speed recovery mama. And congratulations to the safe delivery of your son.
Please, take good care of yourself, rest and let the body heal nicely before you concentrate on taking walks. Sending love and hugs.
Speedy recovery to you and God bless you. Thanks for sharing your personal story, my wife has had health issues of blood clouts as well..🙏🏾
Praise God you're all right and recovering! I have been following you for a while and find your videos inspiring and so informative. Blessings from New Jersey.
This made me miss home so much I can’t wait especially the singing , the baby is so handsome ❤
Great to see you back and well with our bouncing baby boy. We missed you and love you so so. Hugs and kisses to you and the whole family. Love Andrea's family Ott❤❤
Congratulations for a new edition to your family. Sorry for the complications you went through. God is good always. Stay safe and blessed together with your lovely family 🙏🏼
Beautiful children, sending distant kisses to the newborn. Babies are so much energy, so sorry you not feeling well. Mullein Leaf tea from Dischem might be helpful for the lungs/ chest but do your research. Wishing you deep healing.
Thanks so much sis and yes, they really are!! 😩 Thank you for the recommendation! Will definitely research and check that out!! 🩷
I understand it’s sweet heart in yes grandma is golden spirit remember you’re loved spiritual too and mom will always remind you how strong you’re she always with you in spirit she is your ancestor angel may you have a healthy recovery beloved keep smiling and healing. ❤️🩹💐💜☺️
Congratulations🎉 I just love the singing absolutely beautiful. I had my daughter just 13 days after you had your son. Which is cool my daughter was born September 3rd and she was due October 6th. I had to have an emergency C-section due to preeclampsia. I also was born with a hole in my heart too. So glad he's doing great. And you as well blood clots make me paranoid. My mom had those too.
I'm so glad, you have such supportive family, Keep doing well guys, we are waiting for Ekandjo to be baptized at Okahao ELCIN church keep keep well,
Thank you and yes, that’s the plan! 🙌🏾😊
Always puts a smile on my face when you upload, thank you. So glad to hear you are recovering. Much love ❤.
I'm so glad and thank you so much for watching!! 🩵
Hat injection is very painful.
I remember being hospitalised for blood clot in my lungs immediately I got the COVID vaccine.
The doctors called it pulmonary embolism.
Quick recovery.
It makes me get worried especially when I feel my body acting funny.
Much love from Kenya
So glad you have pulled through. Please take care. Thank Goodness for women’s intuition. Blessings my dear.
Wishing you a speedy recovery ❤❤❤

Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful son! I’m so glad to hear that his heart is healthy. It's wonderful that you were proactive and had a responsive doctor who, by the grace of the Most High, averted what could have been a tragic loss. I thank the Most High YAH that both of you are doing well. I also enjoyed the singing by your husband and mother-in-law. Please share more in the future. YAH bless you all! 🙏🏾🤗🙏🏾
Congratulations on the birth of your son! 🥳 Very handsome little guy. 😍

Congratulations, madam! I am very happy that u'r back, as I was quite aware of ur 'sabbatical' to give birth! I have been a keen follower of ur channel, and I quite admire ur courage & determination in 'plunging' into Africa - ur ancestral root - despite d obvious inconveniences & risks involved. I had been longing (& praying) for ur comeback. Praise and glory be to d Almighty God for seeing u, & indeed ur entire family, through! Congrats! Congrats! Congrats! Africa welcomes u wholeheartedly, madam! Best wishes to d baby, and indeed to all ur children, husband & d entire extended family.
I am so happy you and the baby are fine. You will continue to be in my prayers (as you were when you announced this recent pregnancy). God is good, and He will continue to protect and guide you to the best of health, abundance and success. Thank you for sharing your experience. All the best to you and your beautiful family. Long live Africa! 💖💖✌🏾✌🏾💗💗🖤🖤💚💚 More beautiful videos of your family members singing will be much appreciated. 😊😊🎶🎶❤❤😊😊
Your mother was so beautiful ❤️
You are so kind! Thank you SO much ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for this share. I thought you were done at two😊 Blessings🙏 Thank God you did not die from the blood clot you're such a spiritual person with a good heart and God spared you. God is great.
Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️
Ayyyyeee!!! Congratualtions on yalls newest edition. Thank you for listening to your body and sharing your story with us so that we can also be informed about Black maternal health in the US and abroad.
Yes absolutely!! Thank you for watching!!
Glad you are ok.
Many blessings to you and your family! Such a handsome baby boy!
Hi Kaylan. I would just like to offer you some hope and tell you that you will be just fine. I also suffered multiple blood clots on my lungs and had heart failure right after my c-section in 2019 here in Windhoek. The worst part of all of it for me was that I could not breastfeed and that broke me more than my diagnoses. I am glad you and baby are both fine, and that you listened to your body. I too thought it was exhaustion and brushed it off and if it hadn't been for my doctor friend who convinced me to go to the emergency ward, I would have probably never went.
Wow so sorry you went through that! Thank you so much for sharing this. It helps to connect with another mother who experienced this. And yes, thank goodness for your friend!! How are you doing and feeling now? Sending love 💗
Congratulations and welcome back🎉
Thank you sis! 🩷
Beautiful baby boy ❤❤❤
Congratulations! I'm still in America. I wish I had a life like yours!
Appreciate it!! I am homesick 😭 it’s been five years since I last visited! 🤯 but I totally understand what you’re saying!!
Congratulations!!!!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ I just want to say that you have 3 BEEEAUTIFUL children. Lance and Shell smiles are so infectious because every single time i see those big grins…here comes mine!!! 😅😅 And I cant wait till the baby gets older to see his big smile as well! I am soooo glad too that you listened to your body mama. You keep doing that and you will be fine., and yes, i too believe that your mom was watching over you as well. 😊 May God continue to watch over and BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.
Thank you sooo much!! 🥹🥹💗💗💗
