You’ll have to take another trip to b&m cause they have cat scrub daddy’s at the moment!
CAT SCRUB DADDYS?! 🥲 I’m sold. Heading there tomorrow 🤣🤍
I need one 😆 ❤
@@GemmaLouiseMiles i LOVE your beautiful cats.
Oooh what colour? X
I love autumn and winter. I am not a summer girlie and when I tell you that every summery warm day that goes by I genuinely say to myself ‘I made it through another day’😂😂
Omg we are the same girl ,, I thought I'm the only one 😊
I love autumn too😊
@@HannahCoziCorner welcome to the squad
Me too😅
@@khloemarie8530 ❤️
I forgot to also mention that you make the smallest things so romanticized and I love it. It makes me feel more thankful for the little things like cozy weather.
Can we just appreciate the skill it takes to make such an aesthetically pleasing, warm, inviting, feel good vlog. Honestly, Gemma you're so clever and creative. Your vlogs always stand out from the rest, you've got a real eye for what looks inviting to a viewer. I appreciate the work and time you must put in to each video. I'm trying that peach cake! 🤤 Xx
I agree
Raising a child is the hardest & loneliest thing I’ve ever done. I’m sure so many mothers (& fathers) can relate. You’re not alone & we so appreciate you being honest & sharing your thoughts xxxxxx
Thank you 🤍 sending so much love
As a mother of a 23 year old! Everything you are feeling and experiencing it completely normal and it gets better honey. You are doing a fabulous job as a mum. Never doubt yourself you are doing great
I used to be a real autumn girl, until I became a mother. I felt 'trapped' in the house during autumn and winter, and I find spring and summer so much more entertaining since I had a child! Still love the cosy days during autumn and winter though, but spring is definitely my new favorite season.
one of the hardest parts about the wonder that is motherhood......the effects on your sanity.
I’m just like you in that my anxiety flies through the roof when my routine is thrown out the window. We got a new puppy two weeks ago….and I’ve been quit depressed and like a lump in my throat also every single day. My routine is THROWN out the window and I feel as though I can’t control the situation. I’ve been trying my best in realizing there is so much control and power in just letting go and going with the flow. It’s so hard but it really gives you peace ❤ also remember people are only showing their good days……not their bad. You are a strong wonderful mom who uplifts soooo many women ❤️💙
I really get the nostalgia thing, sometimes it is just what you need to lift your spirits. I'm revisiting children's books at the moment, but 80s/90s films that come to mind for me are Splash, Overboard, Troop Beverly Hills, House Sitter, Don't tell mom the babysitter's dead, Beethoven, Ghost, Look who's talking and Uncle Buck
Aww, it's ok to have those down days. You are human, and it's totally normal! Just make the most of the good days and remember it's a bad day, not a bad life. Everything will be ok ❤
My dad has been diagnosed with lung cancer and i have been feeling completely down. I come to watch your videos to forget for a while before reality hits again. Love u gemma x
I feel the same exact way with always longing for autumn weather. It gives me the biggest boost of serotonin ❤❤❤ I get so grumpy in the heat 😢
Motherhood is really unpredictable....hats off to all moms
When you said you feel like your mind is watching your body, I feel the exact same thing some days. It's weird, and I feel like the day went by so quickly. It means we're exhausted, taking care of a baby is a sacrifice. If you want, try to sleep during the day, even if it's for some minutes, it helps a lot. Sending you strength and love from Switzerland! 🇨🇭 ♥️ Thank you for all the inspiring videos! Oh and also, when you filmed in the store I felt like I went shopping 😂 👍
I am definitely an autumn girl!
look into dissociation. that "out of body" experience, can be a coping mechanism for the stress you're feeling
Ugh living in the middle east with 35°-40° summers, that storm looks like an absolute dream right now! Luckily I can turn the aircon on and pretend to have a cozy autumn evening with Gemma as well 😂❤
Thank you so much for talking about self care! Moms are always taking care of others and it can be draining. Doing a little something for yourself is necessary. We love you!!! 💕
My favourite season is spring. Because of the sunny weather (makes me happy 😊), pleasant temperature and everything starts blooming. Beautiful 😍🌸🌼🌿
Gemma, I love it when you go shopping. I love to see what you have in the stores over in the UK. I hate summer as well. I'm crocheting pumpkins right now, so I turn up the air conditioner and light a fall candle and think it fall. I think every woman goes through what you're feeling. I did 27 years ago. No one really talked about it back then. I'm so glad you shared your feelings with us. That way, you are helping other young moms out. I'm just letting you know you're not alone. Have a great week!! ❤😊
The Outsiders is a classic 80s film with some gorgeous& very talented actors. The Lost Boys, fab movie! Classic Dirty Dancing & Back to the Futures 🤍
loved this vlog, I appreciate you opening up about your anxious thoughts I am in exactly the same boat, I had my little boy 9 months ago and I am feeling exactly how you are feeling now, although it is not nice you are feeling that way but it is comforting knowing that I am not alone, so I appreciate you discussing the real struggles of motherhood 🥰
I watched your vlog, paused it for a few minutes and thought “Oh Gemma thank you so much again for brighten up my day with your calming and comforting vlog, while i’m sitting on my sofa struggeling with anxiety and my mental health right now.. I carried on with the video and suddenly u start talking about the exact same thing as i am going through right now. I just want you to know, that you are not alone as well!❤️ Btw the symptom you talked about is called Derealisation. It’s very common with anxiety and it will fade away some day. Just don’t think about it too much. Thank you for everything. Sending you so much love from Germany!
Everything you said is so right, being a parent is so hard and it makes you feel bad seeing posts on social media that only show the good things... But I think it's more normal to struggle. I have a 3 and a 5 year old and it can still be draining and hard but like you said it's so worth it for the good times!
Watch lost boys... I love that! X
Don't ever feel alone with the weather, I am British but I live in Spain, so Summers are hot. But i literally do a dance under the rain when it rains. I am the hugest fan of rain, storms etc...i don't know anybody else, only you❤❤❤
Loveliest person on the internet, you’re a true Gem! ❤
The body/mind separation thing is called disassociation. A very common anxiety symptom. Thank you for talking about the difficulties of motherhood. You are not alone.
Gemma makes me laugh so much and feel rather happy with how excited she gets trying food and drink! Literally love it! She is so excited about life ❤ it’s the little things right?
Good morning Beautiful People 😍
Hi from Namibia🇳🇦❤️
Good morning ❤
Good morning
Hi Gemma, I’m a new follower I started during your mama era. My baby is almost 9 months, so I kind of feel like our babies grew up together virtually. I just wanted to say that I’ve followed many mommy vloggers during my post partum days to try and relate or get some inspiration and you are the only one that makes me feel so validated. All of your rants about motherhood not being as glamorous and easygoing as so many portray it, I feel like it gives most mothers such a false image and as you said makes you feel very lonely. So I just wanted to say thank you for making me and I’m sure I can speak for many others mamas out there, feel seen. Sending love ❤️
You are literally the only person that can make me want autumn in summer 👏🏽🍂😂
Sooooo true
Gem, you are just that a 💎 GEM. Motherhood is hard, I struggle everyday with motherhood and I am already a grandmother of 5 beautiful children. Hold onto your values, your habits and routines, that’s what’s going to carry you through. You will feel better soon, much love ❤
I hope you start to feel better Gemma. I'm alot better now but when my anxiety was at its worst it's very hard to concentrate on anything and you feel like you're not there - derealisation. A strange feeling. If not already having therapy it may really help. What helped me (not through therapy, but youtube videos 😂) was understanding why the anxiety happens and what your brain is doing. It really pulled me out of it xx
Yess I love the rain and autumn time. I’ve always liked that you love that weather because 99% of people I know say they don’t like the rain and find it depressing, meanwhile I find it cozy and comforting 🥰
I also get what you’re saying about having anxiety and feeling out of body when things are out of schedule or hectic. I’m a planner and like things done a certain way, and it always makes me really tense and anxious when things aren’t going according to plan or my surroundings are messy lol this is part of the reason you’re one of my favorite RUclipsrs. I feel like I have a lot in common with you 🫶🏻
I am literally looking at autumn decor online today 😂 fluffy pumpkins anyone?
You are doing a great job mumma! Just go with the flow and look after yourself x
Goonies, labyrinth and brat pack movies all the way. Love the 80s.
Motherhood is hard and very unpredictable but worth every single moment. Thank you for opening up as we all have good and bad days so its nice to hear we arent alone. Sending you lots of love 💕
Oh my goodness, the cuteness of Tilly & Teddy ! I cant deal xx
You are very real genuine and relatable and a fantastic mother ❤❤
Love a cosy Sunday video from you Gemma! Going to pop the kettle on and watch this morning ❤ makes me secretly excited for Autumn 😂 xxx
Omg me to I'm craving autumn, was even looking at pumpkins on amazon, I'm so glad I'm not the only one, how funny 🍂🍁 xx
Thank you for being honest Gemma. I remember very clearly feeling how do at the moment when both my children were tiny, I felt like each day was a rollercoaster… the highest highs and the lowest lows! Everything will be ok and you are doing an amazing job, a caring and kind mummy. I loved the music throughout this video, so comforting and the lamp in the kitchen is such a nice touch. My favourite films are ‘you’ve got Mail’ I watch it every September without fail as it’s a cosy autumn feeling and me and my husband watched ‘father of the bride’ last week and loved the nostalgia! ❤ hope that you have a good week x x
Please never stop talking about your love of autumn in summer because I am right there with you and that part of your video made me so happy
Oh Gemma, you’re just soo refreshing to watch! 🤍 I can relate to you so much with everything you spoke about motherhood, feeling vacant, feeling like I look like a potato, mixed emotions all the time. You’ve made me feel so much better just by hearing you put into words exactly how I’ve been feeling. So thank you xx
Hi gem, don’t usually comment just follow you , but after you spoke about how you were feeling on mental health wise, well have to say bloodyhell girl don’t you realise what a brilliant mum and wife to be you already are, you are beautiful inside and out, just having a baby makes the hormones go wild, I have three daughters and two are around your age so believe me I know how you feel, so always remember ya never alone ya got all of us to rant to whenever ya want and ya doing a great job, you are fab, so keep doing ya amazing vlogs and don’t forget how much your valued. 😻😻
You bring so much comfort
Your doing great Gemma it’s totally normal 2 feel great 1 minute then feel low. Don’t be hard on yourself ❤
Hi Gemma, just wanted to comment a bit on the bit on the end of your video about the metal heath struggles your having. I had post partum depression when my babies were 10 months old. I didn’t get it straight away and everything you have described was exactly how I felt. I would recommended going to speak to someone about it. I had a really good nurse practitioner at our doctors who just listened (and provided lots of tissues). Sending love xx
love the b&m shop with me & haul. I’m actually so excited for all your autumn / winter content already 😂😩💖
When you said “defrosting Michael Buble’” 😂 I hollered!!!! I’m right there with you !
Love your videos Gemma, love tilly and teddy content and the sneaky autumn vibes 🧡 thank you for speaking about your mental health, it’s so brave and so important and everything you said made total sense 💗
Best Saturday morning!! Tea, snacks and Gemma!!!
Movies:
-ET
-Never been kissed
-Willow
Also about being vulnerable. I don’t even have kids yet but I totally understand the body & mind being disconnected
I get that way too sometimes xx
Sounds like 80s movie marathon is a wonderful way to decompress & rest your mind xx keep on keeping on beautiful & thank you for sharing
So excited for the video Gemma❤love your videos so much 💖 always look forward to them on the weekends
those cadbury animals were literally my childhood 😭😭, im honestly so done with summer rn the heat is mad and the mozzys are driving me nuts lmao, so excited for autumn & winter 🤎, i also have trypophobia, its horrible aha, i always get the picture too i cannot even say the word holes out loud without the picture coming to mind 😅😖
I’m already waiting for your autumn and Christmas content!! ❤ there’s something so comforting about watching your videos 🥰
Glad you are all feeling better and took time out to recharge , it’s lovely to see you back and I throughly enjoyed your vlog ❤️ I dread hot days anything over 22 is too hot for me I could live in a Autumn season all year round, we are going into winter here in New Zealand in fact I have just watched your vlog and in bed listening to the rain on the roof( super cosy) xx
As I was watching you the weather warning went off Here in Texas Thunderstorms are rarely cozy sometimes a Tornado 🌪 comes along with it . Thanks for sharing your video have a great weekend
my favourite part of the week is you uploading! i look forward to it so much. Got my coffee ready ❤
Hi there! I work with a sleep trainer very closely and she told me that if a baby is waking up within an hour of falling asleep, it's because they are overtired! The ideal nap for a baby a year old is about 12-2pm with a bedtime of 7pm 😊
I missed you last week Gemma!! But I'm so glad you're all feeling better and out the other side take care ❤❤❤
You’ve got mail is an absolute 90’s classic and one of my absolute favorites , reminds me of autumn my fav soulmate season🧡🎃🍂
We got a grow clock which has a sun when it’s morning and a star at night, it comes with a story which is great 🌞 I always think that when you think yourself sometimes you can fall asleep and feeling like you have had a full nights sleep but when you look at the clock it’s only been a short time. My son used to wake up ready to play so we got something he could understand when he couldn’t tell the time 🙏🏻
how much i loooove your cozy vlogsss 🍭
Yes I am definitely with you on the autumn and winter love it best time of the year xx🍂🍁❄️⛄🔥☕❤️
Gemma this video is making my day! ♥️ love this one so much, watching this this morning with a coffee and it’s giving me life 🫶🏼 love the rainy days, cosy calm vibes and I’m here for it! xx
Also 100% love your honesty in your videos, I experience the brain fog ‘vacant’ feeling a lot when I’m anxious or certain stages in a month and it’s so hard to try claw back some feelings of anything! And get back into your body ♥️ but just know that those days are temporary, you are not alone 🥰 you can see just by your videos that you are an incredible mum!! Noah is the cutest and sweetest little boy ♥️ I really tapped into the ‘Cyclical living’ to help understand my random moments and it’s really helped 🥰 so thought I’d pass this on! Have an amazing day ✨xx
Alwayd turn to your vlogs whenever i feel alone! And im sure you are doing Great with everything. Thank you❤
Haven’t watched in Gemma since forever cause of a busy schedule. But it feels so good to watch u again, Gemma cause you’re my role model. Imma keep up w your videos
I just sat down to watch, as you were talking about the thunderstorm, it started raining where I live which I have been waiting for. I hate summer, soo excited for your autumn vlogs eeek
I love your vlogs, especially leading up to Autumn, they’re just so relaxing, and cosy ❤ And about how you’re feeling, it’s totally natural to feel like that, I remember feeling exactly the same way, it’s the exact feelings it’s hormones and the extra stress of having a baby to look after.
I grew up in the 80’s 😅 and my favourite is ferris buellers day off and any American 80’s film tbh. Loved Night rider ❤
I’m the same i hate summer and love autumn/winter. I just can’t deal with the heat and the brightness it’s too much 😂❤
Ahh missed you Gemma last week ..great vlog and like you i loveee the winter but also i love the sun have a lovely weekend xxxx❤
I love fall so much..I missed you last week hope you all feel better ❤ your hair looks amazing ❤ I look forward to seeing your videos..Noah looks so sweet in his little car
hiya Gemma, I know this isn't your most recent video but atm life isn't easy and I just wanna say thank you, because when I am having these low patches you are the first person I wanna watch on RUclips, Your a beautiful soul and full of positivity just like your family. So thank you for doing what you do . I know I'm not the only person you help xxxx
Hey, Im new to your channel and I just love your videos so much. I can really relate to the moods your in lately and feeling out of body feeling. Take care and hope you all keep well 🥰
OMG so glad to see a video from you this week!! 😁😁😁 sorry you have all been poorly 😢 glad you are better ❤️❤️❤️ my Sunday nights are not complete without your videos and some red wine lol 😉 love ya Gemma xxx
The never ending story is one of my favorite movies!
Great video Gemma your videos are always so relaxing & cosy i love them 😊
Oh my god Gemma I'm exactly like this too waiting for autumn! My hubby always tells me off for wishing away the summer. I'm already prepping all the autumn activities I want to do, including watching your autumn vlogs!
Excited to grab a cuppa and watch this 💓💓💓 xx
Omg we are literally the same 😂 it’s currently winter in Sydney and I want to cry every morning I wake up and it’s cold like ITS SUCH A VIBE AHHHH it’s windy and freezing today while I watch your vlog under the blankets.
I was standing there cleaning listening to you in the back round and I had goosebumps I’ve never heard it described exactly the same way I felt.. but I use to say it felt like a dream or so form of de ja vu I kept having but I was there in my mind but not physically.. as soon as you said, blanking out and brain fog.. then you carried on it really hit home. Your not alone.. mine did develop tho so that’s why I’m recommending seeing you GP I don’t wish to scare you at all.. ❤
The honesty in this video Gemma you are admirable 🤍 I just want to say I have two children and I also heavily rely on routine and structure every day, it’s just part of who I am. I really tried to embrace that my second time around and honestly as much as our children are unpredictable a LOT I find that some things can be structured still and I really learnt to be kind to my own needs in that aspect and what brings me peace as well as balancing my children’s needs 🤍 I felt the same as you for quite some time after my first baby, people don’t talk about it enough, But it really does get better. You are amazing 🤍 PS: This video was lovely as always 😁
‘10 things I hate about you’ absolute classic! 🙌🏼 also really appreciate your mum talk! Needed 💙
Nice to see you home safely after your holiday ❤😊
thank you for the honest talk at the end of the video. you are doing great!
I feel you with the disassociation it’s really hard , I feel like we’re quite similar because you have the deep empathy like me too and I’ve recently been diagnosed with autism. You should look into to see have you any neurodivergence ❤ it’ll help when you have those low moods wishing you loads of love you deserve to be so happy you have an amazing life ❤
I listen to autumn music all year! ❤😂
I am very sick since 4 years and have 2 children (age 4 and 7 when it started) it is the hardest thing ever... without my husbalnd or my mom I wouldnever have survived... so I know how hard it is to have children when you are not feeling good! Happy it is over for all of you 🙏❤
Back to the future is one of our classics so glad your back xxx
Hi Gemma, what a cosy surprise - brilliant vlog as always 😊
Oh Gemma. I loved watching this video. You never look like a potato!! I love the way you look forward to your Starbucks drinks( so expensive now😢) and then enjoy them so much. I must admit your live for B&M and Home Bargains made me start shopping there. Thank you for sharing how you are feeling at the moment about motherhood. My daughter is 28 but i can relate to a lot of the feelings you are feeling at the moment, sleeping habits, illness etc Motherhood is so hard. We never stop worrying. I hope your family enjoyed your cake. It looked so delicious. Have a good week ❤ Yes autumn is the best season.
I highly recommend the slow cooker liners when you use the slow cooker, I get mine in bulk of Amazon as I haven’t seen them in the stores but you’ll love them ❤
Finally your vlog is here ❤
Was Missing your vlogs best entertainment for summer
I loved Dennis! Also, My girl & Stepmom are my fav films from my childhood! X
Peaches and cream with rain is fabulous omg dead cosy
Oh my gosh Gemma, what you’re saying about Noah’s bedtime is exactly what my son did at exactly Noah’s age. From one year to about 15 months he woke up around 9 every night and just wanted to get up. I made the mistake of putting him in bed with me and going to bed early to accommodate that. It was really bad as he just wriggled and squirmed and I used to get really stressed with it. A friend told me to leave him to cry and go in every ten minutes and just be very calm but very firm that he needs to stay in his bed and say night night and go out again. I did it for one night every ten mins, 3 times so 30 mins total and then he went to sleep. The next night he woke up and then just went straight back to sleep and then he had broken the cycle. Maybe something to try. I know it’s awful when their routine which is also your routine is disrupted. Rest assured it is not your fault! It’s just babies. You’re doing a marvellous job. ❤❤
Yes, that worked for me too. It’s called the Ferber Sleep Training Method and is amazing.
@@saradresdner6146 😍
I totally feel you ❤ Im a perfectionist/controlfreak and run around on autopilot for my 15 month old boy who also is struggling sleeping and at the end of the day I just totally collapse/shut down!! Try to be soft on yourself, you are doing an amazing job and try to remind yourself that 'its a fase, it will get better ' ❤❤❤
My kids loved Labyrinth when they were little so I know every word to the songs. We watched Gremlins every Christmas. My favorite 80"s movies are The Breakfast club, Pretty in pink and 16 candles. Loved them all! Love your videos Gemma.
i also really dislike the summer, i could happily leave somewhere where the temp never reached over 20 degrees😂 the only person who understands my longing for the cooler autumn is my mum and everyone else just looks at me like i’m insane when on a lovely summers day i’m over here wishing for rain and orange leaves😂 your blogs give me a hint of that though even in the summer months ❤️
