- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2020
- As a mom to a large family, I have been through a lot with parenting, pregnancy, homeschooling, etc. We have learned a lot along the way and how some key things that work.
With being a large family we get asked all sorts of questions and ideas about to handle certain parenting dynamics. I love helping other moms with ideas of what has worked for us.
A couple weeks ago I put a poll out on Instagram and on RUclips Community page asking for you questions... and today I'm answering them! I hope this Q and A helps you guys out! I love answering your questions and getting to know each of you better along the way!

“children aren’t expensive, lifestyles are”♥️ thank you for that reminder.
❤️❤️❤️
Yeah this is really good.
I love that comment, children aren't expensive n lifestyles are! 💯

God truly does always provide! I believe this with all my heart
Amen!
Love your videos! I'm a 23 year old mom of two and I want a large family too and a homeschool. You are encouraging!
Aww thank you!
Thank you for a great video. I love the statement one kid is hard, two kids are hard..its just hard! Love your channel!
Thank you!
Been looking forward to this 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thank you!
Thank you so much for answering my question ❤
Really enjoyed this video and listening to your answers/perspectives on everything
Thanks so much for your support!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I just recently discovered your channel and am loving it! I appreciate your humbleness and your bubbly, genuine personality, and I admire that you aren’t afraid to be bold in your answers to certain questions and stick to your convictions. I hope you continue to do more Q&A’s.
You are too kind! Thank you so much! Honestly it’s hard to answer some questions simply bc you know you’ll receive backlash. But I hope I can be some sort of encouragement to others.
This video brought me so much light and positivity! I felt like I was being more selfish and cold-hearted as the number of children grew in our family. Thank you for mentioning the importance of just a little me time it really does help me have a better attitude towards my kids.
Oh mama I hear you! ❤️❤️❤️
I like the way you correct your children with extra chores that benefit the family.
Love all your videos. I’m expecting number 7 in few months so finding your videos inspiring 💕
That’s awesome congratulations!!!
You are a wonderful loving mom. All you can do is all you can do. Don't feel guilty because you cannot do everything. Your kids are LOVED FED CLOTHED AND HAVE A ROOF over their heads. Your doing Great!!!
Thank you!
I really enjoyed this 🥰 you're so right, God does truly always provide! It never ceases to anaze me!
Thank you! And amen!!!
Thanks for this. Beautiful heart and responses. So encouraging xx
I just have to say I love you lol.. you're so cute! Thank you for answering my question 💝
You are too sweet!
Your channel came up in my suggested and I am hooked!! What a wonderful family..I have been binge watching for 2 days 💕
Oh wow! Thank you so much!
@@FieldsFullHouse your personality and laugh is infectious in the best way! Your comment about the time with God carrying us through the day really spoke to me. I feel it’s no coincidence when we get reminders from others testimonies of God’s love just when we need it. Have a wonderful evening!!
@@lisaj2521 thank you! 😊 yes, I think that’s the way most busy moms (or people in general) connect with God. It doesn’t have to me a ridged scheduled time.
I absolutely LOVE Once Upon a Child. I rarely need to buy clothes brand new but if I do it's usually only from Target and Walmart.
Same! I like Ross too!
@@FieldsFullHouse Yes! That is my favorite place for my clothes, especially maternity. Otherwise it's Walmart/Target for me too.
@@vyktoriajenkins1501 my older girls now love Ross too! So it’s getting more dangerous to n Daddy’s wallet! 🤣😂
Here watching! ❤ I've been looking forward to this. 😊
Thanks friend!
Glad to see ya.Awesome video your a wonderful Mom with patience. God Bless.
Thank you!
“Unless you keep having kids like me”🤣. You crack me up.
🤣🤪
I can’t believe how much we have in common!!!! Love your videos!
Thanks!
Aww thanks friend! I appreciate you mentioning me. ❤️
We are so much alike in so many ways! Can't wait to see if there will be a sweet baby #11. ❤️ I want more. I guess we'll just wait and see what God has in store.❤️
I know it! There have been so many similarities between us! I kinda want to have another baby too... then on hard days... I think nope 🤣
Thanks for talking about Gather Round! I would love a video more on your thoughts about GR and more specifically how you are using it!
YW! I might do a video! We do really enjoy it!
Great q & a! You are awesome! ❤️
Thank you so much!!
Thank you for sharing and answering all those questions 😍🙏🏼 I saw it all 😊 Strive to be what god wants us to be, and not everyone else 💕 Love and blessings from Johanne, Norway
Thank you! Yes we need to put our hope and trust in Jesus! :)
Thank you for your openness and honesty in answering all the questions - we are a nosey lot lolol
YW! Thank you for your support!
I loved this Q&A! So many questions I always wanted to know but too polite to ask. 🤣 I've never caught how old you are, if you've said or if that's private I understand. I have 7, ages 2 thru 19. 4 girls & 3 boys. I've exclusively nursed all 7. Our youngest is 25 months now and we're not pregnant yet. She still nurses a lot. We've placed our family size in God's hands since getting married at 18 and they're all spaced 2 to 4 years apart primarily from breastfeeding. I'm 37 now and the "not pregnant yet" worries me. I pray about it but still worry about my age and fertility possibly waning. It's been heavy on my mind lately. Thank you for the reminder that it's out of our hands and God's will is sovereign. I needed to hear this tonight. 😘 I've enjoyed getting to better know you & your wonderful family. 💗
I’ve wondered the same thing about my fertility! (Believe it or not 😂) I’m so glad to have helped! We all need encouragement. I know I do! I’m 36. I was 19 when we got married.
And feel free to ask me what you’ve wondered or you can message me ❤️
Christy- I've wondered that at my age 34 but I know people in their 40's still going strong having babies. God has the perfect plan for us all. ❤️
@@Abiding.Farmhouse yes I’ve wondered the same thing about my age! My mom was 40 when she had my sister. As my mom would say “kids keep you young!”
I had my three youngest at 36 38 42.
Great video....and this is coming from a MAJOR animal lover. 😊
Please take care of YOU in the decision to have another baby. Blessings to you and each member of your beautiful family.💕
Lol! Thank you!
I will!
Loved this 😊💕
Thanks!
"It's called Get. A. Job" 🤣 Best response! 👏
I just recently found your channel and have been enjoying it. I've always wanted a large family, but have struggled with infertility. From the beginning of our marriage, my husband and I wanted to put the number of children we would have in His hands, yet I didn't like that the answer might be "less" instead of "more". However, through infertility the Lord has taught me so much, and I am now blessed with two healthy children that are a testimony to His faithfulness. 🥰 I don't know if we will ever be able to have more, and I still struggle with feeling like that chapter may be closed without my having a choice or say in the matter, but I know that His plan will work out for my (and my family's) good.
That was a lot to unload on a first comment 😳🤣. Anyway, thanks for sharing your life and family!
wow... thank you for sharing that with me! And you're right we don't always know what the Lord has in store for us and we are learning through each path. Prayers and Blessings!
💜 the q & a
I really loved how you said children are as expensive as you make them. I feel like allot of jealousy comes with it as well so people say stuff in the moment to justify themselves. My sister in law was planning and trying hard to have a child and I unexpectedly had twins due a week before her. When I found out the genders she accidentally texted me instead of her friend on how disgusted she was with me because it was her turn to have kids. And all that to say their opinions shift after the years gone by but of course my family still remembers. I just find it hard to not take offense and its great to hear positive opinions from other moms like you.
Thanks for your family positivity.
Have a great day!
Oh my!!! That is a lot! I would have a hard time forgetting that too!
Sorry for so many comments. I’m commenting as I watch. I’ve had breast implants myself after baby number three. And while I have continued to be able to successfully breast-feed I’ve also noticed that I get mastitis or severely plugged ducts frequently with the last four babies. To the point that I say I’m not going to nurse anymore ( then for one reason or other change my mind ). I just find it’s fascinating that you had a similar experience.
That’s hilarious!!! We do have so much in common! 🤣
And mastitis is the worst!
I WISH my babies had nursed for 45 minutes! I loved that time, but after the first few weeks, all of my kids would nurse 10 minutes and be done for 3-4 hours, then 10 minutes again…it was convenient, but not snuggly😁
This is so true also I find different children react better to different discipline we are about to have baby 11 and there all have so different personalities
Yes! Every child is different!
I love this video! I might try a Q&A on my channel 🤔. We'll see.
You should!
I totally think you made the right decision to bottle feed (even if you hadn't needed the breast reduction). With so many children, it is HARD to sit and nurse a baby while trying to juggle x, y and z. I have tried to nurse all but one of my children and have only been successfully this last time with my fifth. We are still nursing at 16 months but this child is the most dependent and still wakes every two hours at night! I told my husband the next baby gets a bottle! The only reason I continued to nurse was bc we had a lip revision done in order to nurse that was so traumatic and I felt like I owed it to my ds to nurse as long as he wishes. It's hard, it's exhausting, it's put a huge damper on my relationship with my preschooler and looking back I think I should have formula fed. I'm on team fed is best!!!! You are an amazing mama!!! Kudos to you 😊
Thank you! Yes the time it takes to nurse can be so long! (I do miss it) but I also have so much I need to do and I want to be available to all my children. It has worked best for this season of life I’m in.
❤️❤️❤️
Feeding baby is what matters. Formula or breast it doesn't matter which. There is too much pressure to breast feed.
I agree!
Haha, just got to the 10 vs 11 kids in a 12-passenger van issue. We are now 13 people and I drive a 12-passenger Chevy Express... 😜
But our children are a bit more spaced out and we have a couple drivers with their own cars 😁
It's crammed quarters! LOL I would like a 15 for more cargo space!
I'm sure you hear it a lot, and maybe it sounds weirdo, but we would be great real-life friends, lol. We have so much in common, you are just living an opposite life with mostly girls in FL and me with mostly boys in MN. Thanks for sharing all your answers openly. I have been wondering a few of them, and now I know :)
not weird at all! I totally get it! But MN! LOL How cold is it there?
@@FieldsFullHouse Well...we have been unseasonable cold the last few weeks here, even for us. We have been in the 20s and 30s, normally it should be 40s-60s. Last week we got 7 inches of snow and a good amount has stuck around! I guess we broke an all time October snowfall record. All our beautiful falls leaves got snow dumped on them. It is supposed to get back to the 40s and 50s next week...at least I hope. I do not enjoy our negative winter temps, but I also can't do the heat of your summers. I enjoy a nice 60-80 with a breeze, haha. I always say I just need a few weeks a year in the 90s for all the swimming and I am good.
Do you have a schedule for math? Or any who struggle and take a long time? Or get a lot wrong and have to re do problems? We use teaching textbooks and I couldn’t imagine sharing one computer with 5 kiddos!
We don’t have a set schedule. And we NEED 2 more computers... it’s on the list soon! lol! Bc that is a huge issue. The older girls math can take them a little while to get it done. Jackson does it first thing in the morning. So that helps. We have had to change the problems and have kids go back to make sure they understood the concept for sure. Our biggest issue is only having one computer.
I was so sad when we decided to stop watching poldark! I really liked the show. Ah!
It was a good show! Except for that creepy part! Why did they have to put that in!
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! YOU Look beautiful🌺🌹
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. You're so sweet! I have a question for you - is that your natual hair color or do you foil your hair? It's lovely 🥰!!!
Btw, my last baby took about an hour to nurse as well... sometimes longer! I totally can understand your decision to use formula. I ended up switching to formula when he was 6 months old. No shame in either decision 🙂
Thank you! It is my natural hair, I did have highlights over a year ago... so not sure how much is left! 🤣
@@FieldsFullHouse Well it's absolutely beautiful!
Those long nursers are hard!! One of my older kids that I nursed took a long time too...
Thank you!😊
Love 💖 love ❤️🥰
Also sorry Q&A with you and your hubby fun fun
Sorry, I asked you a question and I posted it on the wrong community post. I asked you if the kids play any music? Instruments? Anyway, nice Q and A!
Oh I’m sorry! I missed it! They dabble in piano. I want to get formal lessons going again. Nathan plays the guitar and teaches them some.
Nice! I play guitar too! I've been for three years now. How I got into it, it's a long story. 😊🎸
Have you asked your children if they feel they are getting what they need all the way around?
In what way do you mean? With school?
School, emotionally, spiritually, physically?
Gotcha... we are always open and talking about all the things..
Does the sleep deprivation ever end or get better? 😬 it’s the one thing that keeps me from wanting a large family
Some kids (babies) are great sleepers.. some are not! Lol! We’ve had a good mix of good and not so good sleepers... so yes it does end and it get better. At least for us it has ❤️ Kinley sleeps every night from 10pm to about 5-6am at 2 months old.
I wore Cover Girl for a couple of decades...then I heard about EWG through the Cancer Schmancer site by Fran Drescher, there’s a product checker that you can plug your makeup, moisturizer, shampoo, etc into for health/toxin info 😬 I think I went thru every stage of grief and shock lol...
Ugh don’t tell me that!!! I haven’t looked into any of the products that I use. I need to! But it’s so overwhelming!!!
I think a lot of people confuse Discipline with Punishment. They think a kid needs to be spanked or yelled at. I agree that teaching a kid not to do something works better.
I agree
Do you get 1:1 time with each child?
Yes. We make it a priority.
My kids were bottled fed. I’m glad they were because we ended up having to put them on soy formula.
It’s easier!
I think a lot of ppl assume us large family moms automatically will ebf
Yes they do.
What is ebf?
