Baby 101; part 4 (7 month old, 8 month old, 9 month old baby)

- I cover diaper changes, changing baby's clothes, trimming baby's nails, giving baby medicine, baby sleep, baby play, feeding baby solids and more. For moms and mom-to-be who need a refresher course on taking care of a 7 month old, 8 month old, 9 month old baby.
Hi again! Thanks for being here! This video is part 4 of the Baby 101 series which covers the basics of taking care of a baby! When I first had my daughter nearly 5 years ago I had no clue what I was doing and I did not live near family. I needed to be taught EVERYTHING about taking care of my girl and I needed lots of emotional support because I found mom-life really challenging. When I had my son Wilson 9 months ago I decided I would use my channel to give the same kind of love that I needed back then. In this video I will show you everything from how to change a diaper on an extra wiggly baby; how to trim baby finger nails; how to change baby's clothes; what to use for dry shampoo when you aren't showered but need to look a little cleaner; how to play with your baby; baby bath time; feeding your baby solids; our nap time routine; how to give a baby medicine when they really don't want to take it and everything I know about baby ear-infections. I look forward to reading your comments and seeing the things you do with your own growing babies!

Love your no nonsense down to earth style! Thanks for modelling a non judgmental approach to motherhood.
I love how raw and real your videos are. I feel like so many other moms on RUclips show their babies when they’re in a calm state and it makes me feel like my son is more active and crazy and uncooperative than other babies lol thanks for showing mom life the way it actually is!
okay the advice to dress your kid in clothes that make you love them more is so helpful!!!
I’ve been struggling with depression and anxiety, and it worsened after a really hard break up. Your videos bring so much joy to my life. So thankful for you and your beautiful family ❤️
Gina Im so sorry you have been struggling but thank you and Im happy i can be a support to you! You are so loved. ❤️❤️
“I think maybe being a mom is a little bit like being a clown” I couldn’t have said it better haha. I’m learning this now as a first time mom and it’s great to know I’m not the only one thinking it!
Going to be a first time dad in September! Just finished binge watching all your vids and it has definitely helped relieve some of the stress! I love that your videos cover a lot of the day to day small nuances of childcare that most people just gloss over. New subscriber!
Congratulations!!!!!
Gosh, you really are the best. I was about seventeen the first time I changed a diaper... I found myself in a situation where I had to help a friend and I realized, "Oh my gosh I have no clue how to do this..." I'm due at the end of June and after doing so much research, no one tells you how to do these basic things like brushing their hair or clipping their nails. Thank you so much.
For some reason my 8 month old son LOVES getting his nails clipped! He sits so still and just watches😂 I got lucky on that one!!! Haha. Love this video!
Donnotheboy haha that is the cutest thing 😍😍
Omg....what a blessing! 😀👍
Wow I've never heard of any baby sitting still when it comes to getting their nails cut. That's something I find the hardest and still haven't mastered despite having 2 kids
AyeshaRameez i was so scared the first time I clipped his nails that I was shaking (he’s my first and only baby and I had heard horror stories) but he just sat so still and now at 8 months old he still sits so still every time and let me tell you this boy doesn’t sit still for ANYTHING!!! Lol
@@itscool770 you have definitely got lucky in the nail department then it seems
Quite often I just purée whatever we ate- spaghetti, pasta, soup, etc! My 7 month old loves it!
Sending love from Canada 🇨🇦
M M good idea! I need to do that!! I haven’t been pureeing enough i don’t think! 💛💛
😁😁😁 the nails and the medicine being very helpful and hilarious story of how he usually spits it out instead of taking it like he is now
Thankyouthankyouthankyou ❤️ you make this only child with no childcare experience feel like She can do it when the time comes!
"usually in front of a mirror it works really good"
You just slay me. 😂
Anna Rocha 😂😂😂
You’re a true friend for laughing at me with me 😍
I just found this 101 series a couple hours ago, and lucky me you've added a new one today!
kittenswithbows aw yay! Thank you for watching!!
“I like you, I WOULD shower for you, but I didn’t” hahaha I adore you ❤️
I laughed So Many Times during this video! Jess is the funniest and most relatable mom ever. Thank you for these videos, friend!
He's such a cutie, love the curly hair!
My favorite clothing when my son was a newborn were the thin gowns that tighten up at the bottom and loosen when you need to change a diaper. Sooooooo convenient.
These videos are absolutely perfect for this virus thing going on, saving people the hassle of having to figure it out on their own:)
Can you add in playing with him? I need some ideas about how to play with my 6 month old lol. Sorry if this is weird.
Seconded, need this! He's having his abandonment anxiety now and as soon as I put him down he cries, unless I find ways to distract them. And I only know so many...
Good luck to you momma!
@@Kingatje that's normal and will pass soon once he realizes there's nothing to be anxious about because you always come back for him. It's actually good for him because it helps develop trust.
Thank you for all your 101 videos you make. They are my favourite and I really get so much peace in knowing I'm not alone in facing all the challenges you describe. I'm a mum of 2 and still need these reminders. I wish I had all this advice given when I had my daughter 4 years ago.
I love all your content and find it unique because there's not a lot of mums who talk about basic things that can be difficult. We have this idea that we have to pretend that we are coping fine otherwise society deems us as a bad parent. Seeing your content always makes me smile. God bless xx
Hey Jessica! Honestly your videos are such a joy to watch. I'm a new mom and watching your funny light hearted and kind videos has been helpful but also just a great part of my day! THAAAANK YOU
Loving these 101 videos, thank you so much for sharing what you have learnt with us. The tips are amazing, but it's also really helpful seeing you do these things in real life. I can't remember if it was part 1 or 2, but the reason I have been able to get my 5 week old to sleep in her own bed for the last few nights is because of your videos. Now I sleep much better between feeds as Im not positioned awkwardly like I was when co-sleeping as I was so scared of rolling on her, which was killing my back, and she's doing much better at napping throughout the day and letting me poodle around the house without having to be attached to her 100% of the time. Thank you
It’s crazy how much you have to learn to do in such a short amount of time. My babygirl is almost 9 months and learning all these things you’re explaining by yourself is hard when you’re alone. Thank you for making these videos! ❤️
Thank you so much for these videos! My husband and I live in Mexico while the rest of my family is in Tennessee. It’s been scary to be pregnant with our first and be alone! But your vids make me feel like I have a big sister here with me ☺️ I just discovered your channel today and have been watching non-stop 😅
I love the baby updates! My son is 6months, so our babes are close in age 🤍
love these videos as a young nanny they are super helpful!
your spirit is so warm and loving 🥰😌
LOVE this video!! you are so great and helpful, you always put a smile on my face! thank you 💗
Grace Parks thank you so much!! ❤️
I'm a new mom... I'm expecting a baby in November or December and I love your tips! Though, my house is a bit crowded and messy... So, I have to get down an start to work on my house more! Thank you for all of your advise. I'll make sure to come back to these for help in the future when the little one is born!
Aw the little car thing, Go Green! And what a beautiful baby :)
Thank you for sharing your experience. First time mom and I think I'm developing depression already just because of the cycle of taking care of my newborn who is now almost 9 month old and just couldn't get hold of things I used to do. Like I was good at multi-tasking at work and at home cleaning and I get things done back then just how I wanted them to be. But now, things have changed to the point I get questioned and/or instructed on how to take care of my baby. But they do not know how difficult it is specifically if you're just alone (my husband works almost all of his time and helps me sometimes). It is just overwhelming and there were days that I couldn't take a bath, and held my pee for almost 4 hours. It's overwhelming, really. So thank you thank you so very much! From the Philippines.
Jess, thank you VERY much for this series! :-) I am expecting my first in July and I find your videos really helpful and also, and the most important (!) full of amazing positive energy I really admire and appreciate.
Tereza Dvorakova aw yay! Congratulations and thank you for watching!! You’ll be an amazing mom ❤️❤️
I love the way shes been soo her self love it what a beautiful boy you have x
Night time diaper tip: we had the same problem, we use the huggies night time one BUT someone told me to size up one size and it works! Maybe that will help? ❤️
Nina Vaughn awesome thank you so much I will try it!
Adding a booster pad (Sposie is the one we bought) to a night time diaper has helped us.
Yes thats what we did at well.. And the best once for US were Lilidoos
Imagine Jessica being your mom... you would think you could do anything in life, because she is such an encourager!
i'm 15 i don't have a baby but i might move in with my sister for a while so i can watch my nephew while she goes to work
You guys are the best! 😍
Becca Prins we think you are ❤️❤️
He is soooo cute!
How cute!!!!!
Sposie Overnight Booster Pads (Amazon) are amazing! We size up and use one of these and no more pee outs overnight.
I don’t have a baby but I babysit young kids and this is SUPER helpful!!!
love your videos and every time that you say you're a professional :D :D
Julia Goldsmith-Pinkham 😂 thank you so much!! ❤️❤️
🙌🏼 I was literally about to search RUclips for how to change a diaper on a wiggly one. My 6month old just rolls all over the place because he prefers to be on his stomach over back. All the sound effects!
Stephanie F H hahah sound effects all day long! 🥳
Probably too late but Spoosies diaper inserts ( Amazon) are great for overnight protection...we used them with our two boys inside their diapers and then later inside pull-ups. Also add a puppy pad/ disposable pad underneath the sheet for quicker linen changes at night should it get far as you phase out of pull-ups.
You are soo funny. :D i love your Videos . You have a good personality. Thank you for being you. :*
Thank you for making this video! I would love if you did a video about how to entertain babies at all stages. Do you do any Montessori?
Hannah Janatsch yes i would love to make a video like that! Im not actually sure if i do Montessori because i don’t know much about it! I can look into it though ☺️
@@jess_hover I'm due April 22nd and I feel so lost when it comes to the idea of how to entertain my baby. Can't wait for this video!
Hello,
I don't have a child, but I'm relearning some babysitting tips and education.
Thank you !
He is a FAST crawler!!!
Very beautiful baby
We use the pampers baby dry. It holds ALL the nighttime pee in.
Biggest fan! love you! thank you Glad you exist:) #coolestmomever
Hey Jess! Iamcommenting here so that there’s more chance of you seeing it , I have been seeing your older videos , and I just wanted to suggest maybe your son has motion sickness , where he doesn’t he feel good while driving like many adults.
gosh hes such a cute little guy :') ♥
Bad am Sorry thank you!! ❤️❤️
So helpful! My baby is 6 weeks in 2 days. I have so many questions! Is there a way I can maybe chat to you please? It's mostly about sleep training, when to do it, how to do it, what pacifier to use because my boy isn't taking the Tommy Tippy, how to keep baby awake while nursing because he falls asleep while drinking. I don't want him to link eating and sleeping and have him wake up when he's not entirely full. Please help!
Ok that blush with the tube...😍 I went to their website but there’s like a bunch of options-which shade are you using?
Cameron which website did you go to? Root Pretty i use Krea and in Boom Stick by Cindy Joseph Im not sure! It’s a deep red .. kind of berry looking.
💓
hi i love your videos i have a 3 month old and she crys alot how do you stop a baby from crying
Ear infections are a pain in the butt! My daughter has had them chronically since she was about Wilson’s age. Most kids got middle/inner ear infections because their ear tubes are so tiny gunk and bacteria can get trapped really easily and cause an infection; this can also happen as a result of a cold, since there is more ‘gunk’ that usual (ew). This can spread to the outer ear and - like you said- water will make it worse (the whole bacteria love a warm wet place thing). From what I can understand the ear infections are super duper painful and just makes the kids feel a bit poorly, but most will grow out of having them too frequently by about the age of five. I love your videos so much, you are such a lovely calming person to watch and I send you all my love xx
EDIT: my daughter always found that the best relief was using heating packs on her ear along with over the counter medicines - obviously might be more complicated for a baby though :) I hope Wilson is feeling better soon and you are doing an amazing job!
youtube account thank you so much this was so helpful!!!
Clip their nails when they're asleep. So easy!
that hair is too cute
Hey hey! I noticed with my boys that when I sized up at nights, they stopped leaking. Maybe that might do the trick for you?
My son peed out of hello bello, honest co, and pampers. Huggies are the best for us, we’ve never had a leak with them!
Hey Jess, how did you manage to transition from the swaddle to the sleeping sack? I feel like my baby wouldn't be able to fall asleep if not swaddled... Btw my baby boy is three months old. Thanks for a word of advice 😘
Sina Widmann hi! I transitioned him once he started rolling over. But first i swaddled him with one arm in and one arm out to try to help him transition. Both my kids have been happy in the zippadeezip sleep sacks :)
Ear infections are completly normal.just make sure hes not getting repeated ear infextiona because all infections can cause a hole in the eardrum also a good use a to put a warm washcloth on the ear can help him feel better
My 8 month old son is a difficult eater. He shuns the veg purees and goes for the fruit or hard carbs, I gave him banana pancakes this morning and he loved them. The way I get him to eat his veg is pretend to give him a small crumb of bread, then I put the spoon of veg into his mouth. I feel so guilty tricking him like that but I do end up giving him the crumb after each spoon. Also I don't intend to keep this up, just until he's familiar with the veg 'taste' and tolerates it more.
Hi Jess, have you tried Gentle Steps? They’re five dollars a package at our Dollar General. They are sooooo absorbent. They get my little girl through the night with no leaks.
- edit -
Also, I had extreme ear infections as a child, to the point where they were talking about surgery, and my mom used ear candles and they cleared up.
Chey D i haven’t heard of them but I’ll look into them!!
Also thank you for letting me know about ear candles ❤️❤️
"You wanna put your kids in clothes that make you love them more" LMFAO how awful that that's true hahaha when she's screaming in a cute outfit it's always easier 😂 my girl has an ear infection right now but we can't get her into the Dr because she has a cough, and because of COVID-19 they're not letting anyone with any cough in the office:( so we have just been doing warm washcloth and baby Tylenol but I can't wait to get her checked out. We have started baby led weaning and so far she loves bananas and baked carrots. Her favorite thing to do when she's being fussy is go outside, which I've heard even since she was a newborn that a change in temp (warmer or colder than indoors) calms them down and so I try to take her on a walk everyday or she just sits in her stroller while Dad works on the truck and she's happy!:)
My daughter was the same! She still loves going outside, although now at 15 months she thinks she's grown now 😂
@@sitcomchristian6886 oh no lol!! Ours is 6.5 months so luckily she can't do much without us yet 😂 easier to keep track of🤣
I always put a body to hold the diaper cause im scared it will fall 😂 is that unnecesary? Kisses from Poland from a first time mom! ❤️ Be safe 🥰
Try Kirkland diapers they are the best!!! Costco brand
How do you sleep train your babiess
I've discovered that it's easier to pull up a pant diaper on my son when he's wiggling a lot, and if he's a bit sleepy and lies kind of still it's easier to put an open diaper on him. ^^,
If you don’t have access to antibiotics for an ear infection steaming an onion and (when it is cooled down) putting it on top of their ear while they sleep is a good natural remedy.
I’m babysitting a 9 month old on Wednesdays and fridays and I meet her tommorow and I really want to make a good impression 😭🤜
You’re so funny
When he is not performing for his fans lol 😂 go figure thanks bruh 😎
Your kids are so adorable ♥️ btw Jess, I can't find you on Instagram. Is it still open?
It should be @jess_hover. I added her today.
@@rebeccachaudhary4123 just found it, ty!
@@centref0lds1 you're welcome :)
Omg yes! My baby boy wiggles SOOOOO MUCH when I change his diaper . Lol have to distract him with a toy
Edit: hes 7 months
Wow , the whole peeing out of his diapers at night, same with my son. Almost every night , this past week , it was every night 🤦🏽♀️
P.s. I keep editing my comment because I’m watching while I comment
❤️❤️ thank you for watching! I love this comment :) i hope you find a good solution to the diaper thing! Lots of moms left helpful suggestions & Im hoping one of them works for us!!!!
omgosh his hair got so much lighter
I'll take a diaper here please uh oh 😬
Watched all four parts...officially terrified of ever becoming a mother. I'd probably be that idiot who feeds their baby something poisonous without knowing...
I have faith in you, girl! You have no reason to be terrified because the fact that you are is indicative that you’ll be great parent!
@@user-jt4nu9fy6q Thank you ❤️ Praying for that day to come 🙏❤️
Hey ☺️ i highly recommend you for taking care of infants of your close family or friends to become over this fear. I luckily have 9 cute nephews whom I loved taking care of. It is definitely a great benefit to have some practice with babies of all ages, as you will feel much more experienced & prepared for your future kids.
@@inanebabbles9555 I'm an only child in a very elderly family and have no close friends who have babies. I know it's been a year since my comment but I feel even worse these days haha
@@mumijevi (i wrote a lot sorry) Think that there are 13 year old girls nowadays who get pregnant and deliver a healthy baby. Imagine what new moms did back in the days where no RUclips videos or written guides were available. Sure, the women got help since they were home with their mother in law/other close women that stayed at home as well, but I still remind to myself that they had no fancy equipments, not an advanced medical help, and probably some of the older experienced women at the family were ill or died young due to those times medical situation was bad. I just want you to know a baby needs to eat, to sleep to continue his development, and we only help him to stay warm and to stay clean by changing him or bathing. My sister has 6 kids. Of course the first ones (they are twins) had all the equipment, care and help. But as the number of kids went up, so her awareness did, that kids don't need that much. Her latest kids are twins as well. She found out some techniques that helped her maintain with 4 little kids& newborn twins. she rarely jumps when they cry, she doesnt feed them on her hands - she puts them on a pillow and place the bottle on them in an angle so the food reaches their mouth. They share a bed together. They play independently. And those nb twins are already 2.5 year old now, healthy and strong. I'm just trying to say, that again, babies don't need that much, and of course as they get older, we educate and teach them the basics. Im sorry if it's long. I hope u read it. There are some people who just know they don't want kids because of career or other reasons. If that's not the case and you actually want to be a mom, let yourself into it, relax, we all cried and got confused at first, but we learn to be better. I still recommend you to take care of babies, try to at every occasion you get. Ask the parent that you are familiar with to hand you the baby for some minutes . You will feel wonders&joy. I myself had an abortion at age19. Then I got an ectopic pregnancy & then another one that ended up with a miscarriage. Today I am nearly 24 y/o, pregnant at 20 weeks. It was not planned but I know that is all for best. I myself live alone with my partner. We are far from our families (my family doesn't want to talk to me), and I have no real real friends as well to be honest, so I will have to deal with it on my own. With my bf. I thank God for the opportunity i was given with my nephews, since it got me prepared. I am sure I will be shocked, tired and upset, but I know this little one will get all the love he can get. Thank you for reading, I look forward for your reply. ☺️
I need to sleep in a diaper 😑
