Howdy! Thanks for your patience with today's video! It's a good one filled with stories from the time JJ was born up until now! We hope you enjoy and have an awesome day! Thanks guys!
It’s so nice to hear you mention Jared and how good he’s to you! So glad you talked about keeping baby June with you at the hospital, I took a violence class and a pretty heavy subject was obstetric violence, and so many ladies talked about how rude and how hard it was for them having their babies taken away to be poked and what not when they DIDN’T wanted them to! So glad you stood your ground! Hopefully that’ll help ease any anxiety to future mommies have ☺️🌷
ellie, i’ve been here since before jackson was born and i’ve loved watching your family grow so much, i feel all the feelings with you. i just wanna say i’m so happy for where you are now, and so proud of what an amazing mother you are. jared is great too. but growing up without a mother really makes watching you be such a good one, so much more special. thank you!
My heart swells for your protection of her. I did the same thing and my husband advocated for me. I also refused them to poke my son at all. It’s heartbreaking that they feel the need to push while we protect tiny babies from feeling ANY pain. 💕
You’re such a good mommy!! You’re absolutely right. She doesn’t need anything but you mama. ❤ proud of you and keep protecting your kids. God is with you
I haemorrhaged badly shortly after my daughter was born. For 2 full days I was sedated and had transfusions. When I was finally reunited with baby, there was no milk. She had been bottle fed so I just continued. I was really disappointed, but soon recognised that I could have died, so decided to just be happy to have my baby in my arms. I agree with you about not having nurses prod my little one. I spent nearly 2 weeks in hospital but it was worth every monent and gave me a special bond with my baby. Jennifer June is just beautiful.
THAT'S IT QUEEN!! you are so strong and I respect so much that you stand for the good of your family. I fallow you since the beggining.. I was like 12yo and you were my exemple for what I wanted as a family. Prayers to Jared, you and your Family.
I agree 💯 with your choices of delaying pokes. Way to stand up for your baby and asking what would they have done if sugars were low. We need to ask these questions more. - From a nurse of 29 yrs. ❤
My daughter had 2 “sugar babies “ and the first thing they did was give them a bottle ( which they devoured) and I ( granny) went through to the room where they checked them and took blood 🩸. She had 4 babies. Now the sugar babies are 21 and 18 . The younger 2 are 14 and 10 . ALL healthy and happy. Love from Granny in Australia 🇦🇺.❤
I absolutely LOVE seeing a baby GIRL in your arms Ellie! I know you were a “boy mom” and were content with that but I always had my fingers crossed for a baby girl for you guys!!! It was such a surprise when the reveal showed a girl I was floored and now seeing her and how girlie her outfits are and how you truly truly love and enjoy every single bit of having a girl! I have two girls and a boy….and it was amazing having the best of both worlds! Having a boy is amazing but there’s just something about having a baby girl too 😊😊❤❤❤ she’s absolutely perfect!
Thank you for this! My daughter, Juni (short for Juniper) is three weeks today, so it is great to hear another mom’s journey who is just a bit farther along than us in our breastfeeding journey.
You go mama!!! Advocating for you and your baby is exactly what you are supposed to do. I am in nursing school and also a doula and I will for sure encourage mamas to make whatever decision they feel is best for them and their babies. 🤍🤍🤍
Thank you so much for sharing this! Couldn’t agree more with everything you went through/are going through. Wish I advocated for myself and my babies more with the first two!
Loved Your Video. Jennifer June is Such a Angel just Sleeping All the Time. Ellie You Look Fantastic and So Does Jared. Prayers for Your Sons Toe. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
As long as you got/get her and the rest of your kids vaccinated at some point. It is so important. Not just for her but for immuno-compromised kiddos and adults too.
Love this video! I’ve been breastfeeding for 8 1/2 months now and in the beginning I wanted to quit so many times but I’m so glad I stuck with it. Your daughter is beautiful 🥰
Well I just want to say that as much as poking the feet makes them tired, it’s not recommended to constantly breastfeed either during this time. It causes them to be hypoglycemia from working so hard. Just wanting to educate others who may decline blood sugar checks
I totally agree with following what your baby is wanting. I did that with my son. And felt so much better not being stuck. Though it did hurt when there was appointments or something comes up
Jared, good luck with your hip replacement. I’ve had both of mine replaced. I waited way too long before I had my first one, which was about 15 years ago. I’ve had no problems and the pain is gone. I wish the same for you.
I’m gonna tell you right now…be happy that you didn’t quit breastfeeding her because being that she is meant to be your last baby….you will truly miss and crave that bonding and just that beautiful feeling of holding your beautiful baby close and being able to give them the most amazing thing they can possibly get! So do it for as long as you possibly can!! Trust me! You will kick yourself if you don’t
Thank you for sharing your experience Ellie! I am so grateful for your insight! You did what you felt was best for you and JJ! You’re a wonderful mom and and I’m so so happy to hear that she has been a dream baby! Tender mercy!
I agree with you, as long as she was alert and nursing, there was NO reason to check her sugars. Also, I had a baby in NICU for 11 days and I was unable to nurse him but pumped. He refused a bottle and went straight to the cup father exclusively nursing for 18 months. Thank goodness she will take a bottle. It was a nightmare at times but I miss that precious time now. Lol My first baby stopped nursing at 10 months but would take a bottle.
Omg she is so precious! I’m pregnant now with a little girl, after being a boy mom for years and just seeing the 2 of you together, has me in a lot of feelings. 🥹😭🎀 love your family.
She's so precious! With my only son, I chose no bath and no Vax at hospital and it was the best decision ever. He will be 3 soon and glad I stood up for my baby. It's our choices and I'm so glad we have them! He's only had three total.
If my daughter hadn't been "poked" in the hospital, she could be brain damaged now because she has PKU and it was those "pokes" that told us that she has it. Those "pokes" can save lives.
i wonder if the reason she is so easy going is because she didn’t have to be traumatized at the hospital as soon as she enters the world! nothing wrong with protecting you baby
I agree with following the baby’s cues. That’s how I raised my babies and they were great sleepers and great eaters. I never had any problems with them. One thing I think we do differently here in Australia is that we give our babies a bottle with some water. So even breastfed babies are getting used to a bottle as well. Water is offered once a day, in between feeds to keep baby properly hydrated. They start doing this in the hospital. 😊
When you start adding sugar back in, why don't you check out plant-based ice-cream? There are some great options. I like the nut-based ones. I can't have dairy because it totally messes with me.
Jared I hope you do go ahead with your total hip replacement. Not sure is the USA you can keep your old hip but here in the UK we don’t let anyone keep body parts, this is for many reasons.
If I knew 6 months ago what I know now, I would’ve done things differently as well. I’m glad you and Jared support each other and are firm in your wishes. 🫶🏼
Great content lately guys and lots of care taken in how you impart that. Am a mama of 3 who's breastfed for a total of 5 years collectively ❤️ Thanks so much for sharing the anti-inflame recipes - I'd forgotten about zoodles 😂
Everybody should know this, and i was upset when my daughter was born, for the first five days (born in Novara, Italy) i don't know what the hospital gave her, she never suckled... once i was home i initiated breastfeeding, it took two weeks of effort. Once breastfeeding took hold, i gave her the breast for eighteen months. When a mother is upset, family needs to step in and monitor the hospital.
If you get backlash from not wanting your baby to be poked and prodded at then that’s just sad! yOU are HER mom and you know what’s best for her and clearly she is a happy healthy little baby!!
Is being vaccinated in the hospital an American thing? In Canada the first vaccines aren’t given until 2 months old. Checking blood levels isn’t a vaccine.
Typically, it’s standard practice in American hospitals before the baby leaves to give a Vitamin K infusion, which is a shot but not a vaccine, and the Hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours. And then the next round of vaccines begins at 2 months.
Instead of ice cream, you should try making nice cream with frozen bananas. Maybe it will help with missing ice cream but should still fall within your diet restrictions.
Great tips ellie I'm going to show my friend this video . She's a 17 ye old mother and we want her to continue nursing as long as she c as n . She has a great milk supply as well but don't think mom is letting baby empty her out cuz baby falls asleep then mom falls asleep so they are doing a bottle 1x daily for a supplement .. thanks for the encouragement so proud of you for giving little Jennifer June the best thing in the world YOUR MILK !
My girls were vaccinated until they tried forcing middle school ones. I learned we all have choices for anything. And I started researching. Always stand firm in what you want. Autoimmunes can be hereditary. We have very similar issues. We’re trying our best do things clean, and healthy & with placebos as my girls call them 😂🤷🏼♀️sending you love 💜

Don’t be afraid to speak your mind she is YOUR baby YOUR decision i love you guys😍😍😍😍
Proud of you for sticking with your mama instincts!!
Good for you! Your baby, you make your own choices!! Don’t worry about backlash, your decision!
I am so glad you stayed firm. Everyone is different but if it is not absolutely necessary there is no need. Good for you mama.
You’re such a good mommy!! You’re absolutely right. She doesn’t need anything but you mama. ❤ proud of you and keep protecting your kids. God is with you

This is good info and insight for those who don't know they can fight for what they want for their babies n not feel pressure to do as Dr told

Ellie, I have to say you are absolutely radiant. I can see such a glow in you.
So proud of you for standing up for your beliefs! Also, thank you for being so open and transparent. ❤
Love this video! I’ve been breastfeeding for 8 1/2 months now and in the beginning I wanted to quit so many times but I’m so glad I stuck with it. Your daughter is beautiful 🥰
My 9 month old was a sugar baby. His levels were so low. Was in hospital longer with him then any other kid. I'm honestly glad you opted out of it.
She is precious!!! It’s wonderful that you both worked as a team and stood for what you believed in.
Sooooo proud of your mama instincts and sticking to them. This mama totally gets you xox
Well I just want to say that as much as poking the feet makes them tired, it’s not recommended to constantly breastfeed either during this time. It causes them to be hypoglycemia from working so hard. Just wanting to educate others who may decline blood sugar checks
Love the diaper. They were given out when I was Pregnant (87 & 90). I always used them because they're PERFECT!
Well done Ellie, you are a wonderful caring & loving mum. 🥰
I totally agree with following what your baby is wanting. I did that with my son. And felt so much better not being stuck. Though it did hurt when there was appointments or something comes up

Ellie you are an amazing wonderful Mum you did what you wanted to do for your beautiful JJ, no judgement here 💗
Proud of you Ellie for not letting the doctors dictate!

Yep, those are cloth diapers. They are awesome!
Glad to hear that mamas are still using cloth diapers for burp rags! It's all I used with my girls way back in 2002 & 2003. They're the best!
She's so precious! With my only son, I chose no bath and no Vax at hospital and it was the best decision ever. He will be 3 soon and glad I stood up for my baby. It's our choices and I'm so glad we have them! He's only had three total.

Praying for Jared and his health issues. JJ looks just like him
If you can eat Tofu, get some silken Tofu and blend it with some frozen fruit such as a berry mix, healthy Ice cream for Ice cream cravings.
WOW! Jared and Ellie you look great💕
Babies don't need to be poked and proded instantly. It's so dumb the society we live in.
Certain cases sure. You did the right thing.
i wonder if the reason she is so easy going is because she didn’t have to be traumatized at the hospital as soon as she enters the world! nothing wrong with protecting you baby
She is so precious
Tommy and Jennifer June are so cute!

Tommy is sooooo adoreable !!!
Of course Jennifer is so beautiful !
Ellie, is Aditi your LC? You and Jennifer June look so happy and healthy!
tommy reminds me of jared dad, same energy
Loved this video. So happy for the success with this beautiful journey, and makes me really want to have a baby girl ❤i miss nursing so much

Y'all my favorite family as well Deru crew & Bonnie plus her family 🩷 been watched them since Calvin was born
Great video, so relaxed, informative, and the baby is also calm, and just beautiful!!
Tommy is the cutest little boy .
Totally with you, Ellie! ❤
If I knew 6 months ago what I know now, I would’ve done things differently as well. I’m glad you and Jared support each other and are firm in your wishes. 🫶🏼
I didn't vaccinate any of my babies in the hospital either:)
Aww that was such a great video. I really enjoy all your videos ❤️🙏.
Great content lately guys and lots of care taken in how you impart that.
Am a mama of 3 who's breastfed for a total of 5 years collectively ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing the anti-inflame recipes - I'd forgotten about zoodles 😂
Thank you for opening up about this!!!
Hiiii 2nddd. Who loves Ellie and Jared❤️❤️
Good for you both! 👏My kids never got all their pokes either😉

Hey Ellie and Jared
Just wonderful!
What is your favorite book?
Is being vaccinated in the hospital an American thing? In Canada the first vaccines aren’t given until 2 months old. Checking blood levels isn’t a vaccine.
Typically, it’s standard practice in American hospitals before the baby leaves to give a Vitamin K infusion, which is a shot but not a vaccine, and the Hepatitis B vaccine within 24 hours. And then the next round of vaccines begins at 2 months.
Came to look for this, I was so confused. I don't have any kids (yet), but my sisters do and they never talked about it so that's interesting to know.
@@phonebayli ahhh ok. Vitamin K also given in hospital in Canada, but not hepatitis. Thanks for answering!
Hepatitis B vaccine is usually given before baby is discharged from the hospital!
@@phonebayli it’s weird how different it is in usa vs Canada
Thank you for sharing!
Jennifer June is so cute. ❤❤❤
Gosh you look like Julie in this video!
JENIFFER JUNE I SO BIG!!! WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN!!!! JARED A FRIEND OF MINE HAD A HIP REPLACEMENT AND
SAID IT WAS A QUICK RECOVERY.
I can't eat dairy either, so I have Lactaid ice cream so good 🍼
I know the feeling I had my baby girl January 18 ,2023. I just want to go home I spend a week in the hospital.
Congratulations
Instead of ice cream, you should try making nice cream with frozen bananas. Maybe it will help with missing ice cream but should still fall within your diet restrictions.
Jared, you’re an amazing dad and husband! Hope you get your new hip and can keep the old one in a jar. That would be cool
Great tips ellie I'm going to show my friend this video . She's a 17 ye old mother and we want her to continue nursing as long as she c as n .

Out of curiosity, is she vaccinated now?
None of your business
