I have had 4 kids in 4 years so far and going from no kids to 1 kid is by far the hardest. The more kids I have, the easier the transition is. It's still hard but I can't imagine having only 1 kid! They are like a little gang and they keep themselves so entertained. I had my 20 month old by herself this morning and that was harder than having all 4 because suddenly she put all her energy into mommy instead of her siblings ha ha
I really can not wait for your light phone video!!! I cannot wait to hear your experience and insights. I’ve had one before and I want one again but I’d love to hear how you handle all the logistics around it, especially camera and music ❤️ love love love your videos thank you for all the time you spend on getting these videos out to help and inspire all of us!!!
Right??? I'm here in Canada and it's taboo here and I've even been told off for it. I just think, what does everyone else do around the world, and what have they done for thousands of years!?!?
My daughter is almost 2 months and I'm so thankful you talk about giving yourself permission to lean into your intuition. I struggled with this so much for the first month. Definitely was insecure about "going against the grain" with some of my parenting choices, but now I'm finding confidence in doing what I believe is best for her. Thank you for this conversation and safe place to be the mom I want to be! 💚
Wow!! What you said at 15 minutes is exactly what I’ve been trying to land in my brain with a 6 month old! I both don’t know what I’m doing and it’s hard but I just wanna learn!! Thank you!! Appreciate your honesty. God bless, cheers from London!!
“Hard is apart of the journey and hard isn’t bad.” Something I have been thinking about in my own life. When I desire for things to be easy, things are actually so much harder 😂 bc I have this expectation that they need to be easy instead of strengthening and transformative.
I’m pregnant with #7 and I can attest to “suffering well”. This life isn’t heaven yet so we are meant to go through challenges etc. but I wouldn’t trade my kiddos for anything.
Been feeling conflicted about moving away from smart phones too. We don’t live close to family so being able to FaceTime and talk or use my phone to take pictures and videos of my kids has been the main thing keeping me on it honestly. I also have been struggling in this new season of life with yelling… just feeling overwhelmed when my 2.5 year old does something she KNOWS she shouldn’t do and laughs about it just really hits a nerve with my anger and causes me to raise my voice…. Really need to work on that and pray about it. Appreciate your honesty it’s very refreshing 🙏🏼❤️
I truly can’t thank you enough for being honest about “working on yelling”. That you haven’t already fully arrived and it’s a process. My mom never once raised her voice at me and I find myself regularly triggered and raising my voice and it has been so hard for me. It is so encouraging to know I’m not alone and being vulnerable about that is truly so, so helpful
That's incredible!! Also so interesting because we're told so much that the reason we are "triggered" is because of learned behaviors from childhood and childhood trauma. How did your mom do it?? Please tell me!
I’ve realized a lot of the anti co-sleeping stuff is due to liability because it is different if you aren’t breastfeeding and things like smoking and alcohol can affect bodily awareness in bed. I’m such a rule follower, so making the cosleeping decision for myself required me parsing out the details.
The topic of which child number is the easiest to add is so situation dependent. Obviously going from none to one is a big shock.😂 I had our fifth baby 5 months ago and he has been our easiest addition by far. I would attribute that to there being more space in between him and our next youngest There is in between the other children and my kids are older now. Just because there's more doesn't mean it's harder. ❤
Homeschool is a funny thing for europeans, in Germany if you don't send your child to school, the police will come and take your child to school. So no discussion there xD

I absolutely ADORE YOU!!! Thank you for reminding us to suffer well!!
I did light phone for a year. It was cool. But the phone call quality was so bad!
I am astonished that co-sleeping is a taboo. In Africa it is a MUST!! Lol I am from there

Just want to say, I am a new momma and you are an encouragement!! Thank you for what you do.
Ah so glad the videos have been a help! Learning the new job of being a mama isn't easy, but so rewarding. Sending love your way!

Also I have to say that cosleeping is very natural. This world has gone too far off the deep end from what should be normal.

For me the book: hunt, gather, parent was very helpful with the yelling

I love the answer about the number of kids. I get asked this all the time(i have 5) and i never know how to answer. Im stealing your response haha.
I'm staying, and I enjoy you and your content. It's truly a gift. ❤❤❤ thanks for sharing all this.
Thank you so much for this video! Love it! ❤

Would love more wisdom and knowledge into being a mama to five! 💜
