Holy shit, your mom’s ‘not imparting wisdom unless it’s asked for’ thing is sooooo impressive. I can’t believe she’s been successful at that for all these months, and love that she actually loves it!
Your mum saying "I'll follow it like a satnav" to your parenting style when looking after Rowan is honestly the most lovely thing to hear. Your mum seems absolutely amazing. We need more Mama Witton videos!
A bit random one, but youtube recommended your channel to me and I was like ‘why does this girl look so familiar?’. And it’s because we have met with our babies in the neighbourhood (once at the pub and once library). I happen to be a local Jewish mum, ha ha, so if I ever bumb into you again I’ll say hi.
The video was pretty much all sunshine and rainbows, apart from Debbie's mini socialist rant. Hannah I could almost imagine your mum going on about how the workers of the world need to unite. It was unintentionally funny, given how juxtaposed it was to the rest of the video. Debbie is incredibly based.
When you first mentioned how your parents treated a call for ‘mom’ as a call for either parent, I was blown away! It is such wise advice that I hope to take into my parenthood journey.
It's interesting you say witnessing your parents argue then resolve their argument was such a positive experience. My parents always argued in private and then when it came to my own marriage I had super unhealthy conflict resolution approaches because no one ever modelled healthy communication about disagreements. Well done to mum!
@@MustBeM honestly, really interesting to see hannah's point of view... don't have kids yet but i always thought that when i do have them, arguing with my partner should be done behind closed doors, i guess because of the fact i witnessed aggressive conflict as a kid, similar to you. it does make sense to model positive conflict resolution approaches tbf, just such a contrast to what my parents did haha
@@MustBeM I think it really depends on the argument. If it's small disagreements, it's good to see healthy conict resolution. If it's a more serious disagreement, which obviously do happen, (eg finance discussions etc) maybe they can happen away from kids. But in general, if you're not screaming and shouting at each other, and you have a healthy approach to disagreements, then I don't think it's bad for kids to see!
🥺 Your mom seems so sweet. Love that she's decided to follow yours and Dan's word and not impart her advice unless asked for, how peaceful it would be if every family member did that :)
As a girl mom who is now a boy grandma, I laughed so hard at the wee fountain during the nappy change. Same exact thing happened to me the first time I changed my grandson's diaper, but the poor little guy peed on his own face. 😂
I'm an aunt of four with only one nephew who is the oldest and three nieces. Interestingly enough my nephew never did that but my youngest niece did it all the time for a while. Quite impressive actually. 😂
15:00 😆🥰 My grandma used to boil baby toys every night, but then she found my uncle chewing on barn boots, and decided if it didn't hurt him, she'd never boil a toy again. He was fine, and is an engineer now.
My mother made me promise (when I was 15!!!) that once I had kids I was not going to do baby signing with them. She just found it to be a completely ridiculous technique and wanted to be sure that she wasn't going to have to see that with her grandchildren. Completely insane from any angle. I remember explicitly refusing to promise her that. I recently brought it up in a way of "remember the absurd situation when you wanted me to promise something I wasn't going to do if I have children?" and she still stands by it and is still upset that I refused to make that promise. What I'm trying to say - I love Hannah's mum and her approach, mine is going to be a nightmare.
Why am I crying through this? Maybe it's cause I'm a mum too and imagining being a Nana myself? Or just how amazing you and your mum's bond is. What a wonderful video
As much as long distance grand parenting sucks I have one set that lived close by and one that lives far away and me and all my siblings have a much closer relationship with the ones far away because while we see them less often, when we do see them it’s for longer and you get to spend full days together
one of my fav videos of yours! weirdly a tb to the collab days - reminded me how comforting it is to watch a chat between you and someone you know so well, between all the super informative vids and interviews you do!
The water thing is that, babies need to fill up on milk, so if they're drinking water they'll feel full and not eat enough. In starving areas, they'll give babies water to help them feel full (sad) but a baby that feels full on water will end up underfed.
Your Mum is so sweet and lovely. My parents are totally the can't not give unwanted advice sort so its very refreshing. I totally see similarities between you and her.
I FCKING LOOOOOVE your mum! Amazing Video - love the chemistry between the both of you and your relationship. Especially with myself having non relationship to my mum I love to see such healthy relationships.
If only all parents respected their kids this much. My dad struggles to accept that I’m an adult (I’m 30) and treats me like I have no idea what I’m doing as a parent, even though my child is 4 1/2 now. So he just inserts his opinion even when it hasn’t been asked for and especially if I remind him that I didn’t ask. It’s so incredibly frustrating.
I saw the previous video of you and your mom for the first time a few weeks ago and I thought she was just the most fun person, and then guess what, this new video never showed up in my subscriptions, I saw it in my recommendations on pure accident, so I almost missed it! Your mom seems like joy to be around
I wish could have grandparents who would look after my bubba 🙃 live in a different country which makes it impossible but don't think would be offered even if we were closer... maybe one day. Loved your mum! 💜
I wish I had a mom like yours. Mine was pushy and nosey and mean about everything I have ever done in parenting. And she is really not one to talk because she really did a screw up on how to raise a little girl. But my dad has always been supportive. The distance is a big issue with my dad he is in Minnesota and we are in Arizona so it’s very much spotty visits a couple a year. But hopefully soonish we will all be a little closer together
This just made me reflect on what I would do different to my parents and I came to the conclusion it’s physical closeness and verbally expressing love and emotions. Because I didn’t get that (and I don’t blame my parents both come from a generational and family background that was less than ideal) I’m SO closed off with letting people witness me. Don’t think I ever told someone I loved them or received that sentiment in words. Let alone touching? What are casual hugs? That’s what I will do different. Had an epiphany 😂 Also love your mum!!
Same! I don't really do cuddling or casual hugs with friends. I get super awkward when someone even puts their hand on my shoulder while talking to me or something. The only person I'm fine with cuddling is my partner and it turns out I'm a super cuddly person haha I even remember once I was like 7 and asked my mum for a favour and I said "I'll give you a kiss if you allow me to do X" like it was such a huge thing! We didn't kiss at all
I'm with your mum on the apps, my toddler is 2 and I had to record every feed, sleep, poop and sick for 3 months to get an allergy diagnosis and I hated it so much. I also didn't use an app, I wrote it on post it notes 😂
The first time I saw Mama Witton in a video was years ago, when you tried to make chicken Kiev! I think that was back when you were a uni student and your channel was Hannah Girasol 😁
thank you to both of you for sharing your wonderful family moments and expertise and optimism!!! Jewish traditions: there are so many words that I would love to learn more about it's just I'm not too much of a book reader, also usually relying on the people that read the books 😂 - I would LOVE to learn about Jewish traditions more in person, I mean, from personal experience, how family really do celebrate / keep up traditions. I just don't know how to do that, I mean, it would be weird to run around and ask who might be Jewish, not to mention asking this question as a German. I'll just keep my eyes open for opportunities! Greetings from Munich! alex
On the trains thing. I've heard from a guy who works in the train industry and makes stuff on youtube about trains, that some of the privatised trainproviders really mess things up themselves as in logical sense things. Some of them rely on staff comming in on there free days to run the trains. It's like just hire more staff so that trains aren't cannceled and paked like pickles in a jar...
First boy in 114 years?! My husband's cousin was the first girl for 78 years and now it's all girls on his side. My side is very mixed but I 100% knew it would be a girl.
5:27 we stan debbie and this is why I'm flying direct to manchester for eurovision this year unfortunately 😢shame bc I would've loved to see the scenery but the companies are so extortionate!
My grandpa called it being initiated into the club! You didn't know what his co-workers were on about until he had his first son and my dad initiated all over his shirt. He walked into the office the next day with a big smile on his face knowing he hasn't initiated and also knowing that he needed to put a clock over the penis when changing a diaper!
My father was the same with the praised he received for merely raising us. Once one of my mum's friend said he was so nice for "babysitting" in front of him. Oh boy. Big mistake 😂
"I still blame Thatcher" is a mood and I love your mum.
gross
I came here to say the exact same thing!
Holy shit, your mom’s ‘not imparting wisdom unless it’s asked for’ thing is sooooo impressive. I can’t believe she’s been successful at that for all these months, and love that she actually loves it!
My mum does this too and it's so sweet as a new mum! So helpful for me to learn but also I know she's there when I need 😍
Same here. My mum would absolutely not be able to help herself
Your mum saying "I'll follow it like a satnav" to your parenting style when looking after Rowan is honestly the most lovely thing to hear. Your mum seems absolutely amazing. We need more Mama Witton videos!
This is what my mum would be like! Plus be a proper granny and completely spoil my kids
A bit random one, but youtube recommended your channel to me and I was like ‘why does this girl look so familiar?’. And it’s because we have met with our babies in the neighbourhood (once at the pub and once library). I happen to be a local Jewish mum, ha ha, so if I ever bumb into you again I’ll say hi.
Please do!!
"I blame Margaret Thatcher still" hell yeah debbie !!!

@@alecburrett7482 lol, if moaning about trains made you socialist, then there wouldn't be any Tories.
Your mum's easy-going nature is so lovely and explains so much about the way you are.

I’m not a parent nor do I want to be, but I could’ve listened to hours of this 🙂
Can I just say your mum's boundaries!!! "You just tell me what to do and I'll follow it like a sat nav". That analogy!!
I’d love to be a woman like your mom. Stunning.
Hannah's mum is lovely, and spot on about privatized rail. Bloody nightmare.
Having printed out pictures to play with has really helped my little one recognize their grandparents & other relatives.
Oh, your mom is lovely! The way you are makes so much sense now haha
This video was a wonderful time, thanks you two ✨
15:00 😆🥰 My grandma used to boil baby toys every night, but then she found my uncle chewing on barn boots, and decided if it didn't hurt him, she'd never boil a toy again. He was fine, and is an engineer now.
I could listen to this for hours! A podcast with you two would be amazing ❤
Your mother is such an excellent person and mother. Her perspective on you as a mother is so wonderful and refreshing.

I agree with the Avanti trains
Utter shite. Coming from Glasgow to London is never smooth sailing 🤬
Why am I crying through this? Maybe it's cause I'm a mum too and imagining being a Nana myself? Or just how amazing you and your mum's bond is. What a wonderful video
We love Debbie! Two Mumma Witton’s in one room makes for a wonderful video ❤😂
This was lovely 🥰 Mama Witton is amazing. I could listen to her for hours! We need her on the podcast

Go OFF Debbie, more rants about shitty public transport please!
Your mum gives off the best energy
Your mum is great! The trains/Tatcher rant was precious :D
what a lovely, delightful human being your mum seems to be. and you have the same beautiful eyes! would love a video with your dad some time too.
one of my fav videos of yours! weirdly a tb to the collab days - reminded me how comforting it is to watch a chat between you and someone you know so well, between all the super informative vids and interviews you do!
I'm half german and your mum looks so german to me, I almost expected her to start speaking with a german accent!
Such a good conversation with your mom! I really enjoyed this!
My god, your mum is amazing! She should be a regular :) So fun and well spoken. Thank you for the video.

I love your mum complaining about the transport system in the UK, my entire family agree 😄
Watching this on Christmas and I couldn't have asked for more wonderful wholesome content 💜
So nice to see your mom.
Loved this. Your mum is such a joy, see why you have grown into such a beautiful, open wise women. Rowan is so bloody lucky what a great family 🤍

So Hannah gets her love of data and recording from her dad, not her mom, noted :D
I feel the same about breastfeeding while on my phone🙈
