Abby should have her own podcast called "the book club" were she reviews books with friends !!! I would love something like that !
Same! ❤
Yes!!!!
Send that to Matt and Abby ❤
Love this idea totally need something like this in my life!
That’d be so cute! 🩷
Every compliment that you gave them seems SO GENUINE! That’s what makes them so fun to watch/listen to. All of you guys seem like really great people. ♥️
I loved that you shared your genuine reaction to your unplanned pregnancy! So many people don't instantly feel happy and excited. It doesn't change how much you love that baby. When I saw thar line at 19 years old my heart dropped. I always wanted a baby. I always wanted ti be young. But actually seeing it when I didn't plan it, I would have got canceled for my reaction is all I'm saying😂but my daughter is the biggest blessing I could ever receive. I would want her as mine in every lifetime. First reactions don't count😌
I agree! Even if you want them and want to be pregnant it's still scary and overwhelming.
I couldn't agree more! I like to believe that my kiddos were meant to be here but almost all weren't planned. First 2 are 10 months apart and that was shocking and hard so I got an IUD after #2 and within 18 months I was pregnant with #3. IUD was still perfectly placed and should've prevented it but just didn't. #4 was planned but born 2 months premature and was going to be the last baby. Fast forward 8 years and hubby no longer supposed to be able to make babies and baby #5 was born.
My reaction to finding out I was pregnant with 3 of my 5 kiddos was most definitely not overwhelmingly joyful but I wouldn't trade any of them for the world!
There is a transition from 2 to 3 children but anything after that is a piece of cake
I had a very isolating situation from 2020-2023 and honestly the biggest thing about me finding myself and not being in that isolating situation anymore I literally give zero f's about what other people think of me. It's the biggest lesson I had to learn and it is SO freeing honestly
I think I need to work on that myself… I was so isolated during lockdown that I reflected a little too hard lol
Yes! Agreed!
Being open-minded and believing all things are possible. Besides, it's so much fun to talk about during family and friends friendly debates. I love ghost stories!!
Such a genuine podcast, very enjoyable. Thanks for sharing.
Loved it! Love Matt & Abby! Fairly Odd Sisters! ❤ You all are doing a great job!
Would love a deeper conversation on your faith, the differences, your identities......go deeper. We all know their story already
Agreed!! 100%
The world is too judgemental for that. Why do you think they choose not to speak of such things? They’d be cancelled instantly by people who believe differently than they do. I’m sure you know the rules of conversation..No talk of politics, religion, or money. It ensures all parties involved are safe from being berated by people who aren’t you. It’s not a bad thing. It’s being polite.
Ps- I didn’t know their story, so I thought this was a great podcast.
@@Nicole22022God tells us that the world will hate Christians just as they hated Jesus. But that shouldn’t keep us from speaking about our faith and beliefs. Not talking about it is denying faith in God’s eyes. Because we should be living for him and not of the world. So we shouldn’t concern ourselves with what others think of us because judgement only matters when it comes from God.
with that, talking about beliefs doesn’t mean you are pushing others to believe what you believe. It’s just sharing something that’s important to you. Others can disagree if they’d like.
@@elephantshoes21xo Every human has the right to choose whether they want to speak of their religion or not. Nowhere in the bible does it state that people HAVE to do that. It’s their right to their choice, it’s not yours. If you want to shout it from the rooftops, then go ahead. It doesn’t mean these people have to. Mind your own business just like how they’re minding theirs😊.
And if you could please show me where exactly in my comment did I say anything about pushing people onto a religion?
With that, I would suggest to make sure you know exactly what you are saying before you actually go ahead and say it. Thanks!
I love yalls podcast! I look forward to every episode!! Love you guys!🩷💚
This was so good, I always love these sessions.
just loving this podcast - Matt & Abby saying ummmmm together priceless ♥️
My former sister-in-law found out she was pregnant again when she was three months postpartum with my nephew after having my niece. They were such fun kids. My niece was the brains and my nephew was the brawn. She was the leader in all their shenanigans.
I loved their podcast episode with yall so I am her for them on your podcast❤
Loved this! Matt and Abby are so sweet.
This was a really great podcast. Thank you
I have a lot of respect for you guys Matt & Abby. You’re a good example!
4 of my favorite people on CZcams! This was such a fun pod! I just came from the Unplanned Podcast!
Great episode ❤ love this podcast ladies!!! I always laugh!
You 3 girls are truly amazing and so extremely blessed to have a young relationship and work real hard to keep that marriage together. Being young and putting your family first is really hard to see these days. I wasn't blessed like you. Watching you guys made me understand alot about my 6 girls and 2 boys about loving someone at a young age and wanting a life with someone. I'm more open minded. As for the beenie boys you are amazing, loving and supportive husbands. I wish people would really try as hard as you guys to stay together. God blessed you. ❤
Love Matt + Abby so much! 🤍 Their story resonates so much with my husband’s and I’s. We’ve been together since I was 14 and always knew. It’s so wild. Love hearing them talk about their stories! 🥹
Matt looks like he wants out lol that's the vibe I get
Just fyi, there no such word as I’s. The sentence should be “with mine and my husband’s”
@@SummerBaby728 Noted, thanks! 👍🏼
I love all three of your family's! And I enjoy each and every video and podcasts you put out there! Pay NO attention to the haters! ❤❤❤
Yess love when you all collab!
My babies are 11 months apart. Both born in 2021. So I get it. Wouldn’t want it any other way. Having Irish twins is amazing.
❤Love Matt&Abby heard their story a few times but for some reason hasn't gotten old❤much love
I love that you mentioned Mental Health being a thing that people did not understand back then. So many cultures still think that when someone has a mental illness, they are possessed, and I've witnessed firsthand that this is so not always the case.❤
Lo+Sara you’re doing great! Keep it up ya’all make me smile
Loved the back to back podcasts ❤
I loved this! Matt and Abbey are my favorite couple
Love this podcast!! I can’t wait to watch Abby’s and Matt’s. All you guys are great!!
My sister has a video of when she was recording my son on video telling us goodnight and you could hear a woman in the background breathing and then she said, “hey Sonny!”
Which is odd because that what I call my oldest son. I have never seen a spirit or ghost, but I have seen and heard weird things.
Watched Matt and Abby’s episode yesterday with you all and ended up having nightmares thanks to your ghost stories. Lord I wish I had Matt’s mind set!
Yeah me too and then I didn't sleep well either
Soon as I heard that they were going to talk about that kind of stuff, I decided to watch the next day, early in the day, knowing I’d have nightmares or even worse, night terrors. Love following all of these couples & realize not all are affected but scary stuff, but could have done without that part of the episode.
Yeah, I made the mistake of looking up the history of the area they mentioned…scary!!!😳
Matt would believe in Ghosts/demons if he heard my story, I am kind surprised he doesn’t believe in them considering his faith.
Mee too!!
wath a gread potcast so real, thank you all. and its youre life and you will love its ather for ever. love from the Nederlands.
Loved this episode ❤
Loved the energy guys🎉😂 keep em coming
Thank you for sharing. I also follow Matt and Abby. I ❤ all of you. Great sharing. Your podcast are always so good, and I have just fun watching. I am disabled and have so many serious health issues. I am mainly bedridden, but your podcast makes me enjoy my day. I feel like I'm hanging out with friends. ❤❤😂
I love your comments Matt! I know my husband felt it too! The emotional stuff comes. My husband and I spent A lot of time with our Parents and children, and church. It's about God and the haters are probably dealing with struggles they are not looking to God or relying on the people God gave us for support. Negativity comes from struggles between their negativity/positivity in their life. They are not looking to God for guidance. I will pray for these people!!!!
Lo, your hair looks beautiful natural like that! ❤
I really enjoy your podcasts.. and I watch Matt and Abby's as well.
I applaud you all for putting your personal lives out in the public.
I know that can be tricky.
My philosophy is.. if you dont have anything nice to say.. don't say anything at all.
We are all different people.. just trying to do the best we can.
I appreciate your honesty.. and the realism. I never got to have kids.. but its okay.. I was just a really good Aunt.
Congrats on your family's and kids. Both are a true blessing.. of which I am sure you are thankful for.
Keep up the good work and positive outlook on life. It's a gift. Enjoy.
Love you guys so much
Congrats. This was a very interesting show.I loved it
I was 7 months postpartum when we got pregnant with our Second Son. I get the Stress! He was 6 weeks ank our oldest Son got Chicken Pox with 205,3 temperature, passing out on the floor. Second Son had Collic being breastfed, and we had just moved into a new house for us in a town I didn't know anyone. I was connected to my husband, Mom and the Pediatrician non-stop! I was also diagnosed with Delayed Postpartum from our oldest 's life threatening birth and then this.
I had to trust the people God sent me. It was extremely hard.
I had my baby girl in 2003 , two years after leaving school , met my future husband almost 9 months later , we got engaged two days before i turned 20 and he 33 , moved into our very first family home , ended up being flooded a year later due to heavy rain , six weeks later found out i was pregnant , 2008 son was born in the bathroom , august 2009 got married
I just love all 4 of you and LO! Your bangs are great!
Abby should act!! I’d love to see her in shows
What's up from Missouri!!! Ten yrs ahead of M&A but so still so relatable and entertaining!! ❤
Pleeeease do a podcast about your hauntings! I need the full stories!
I second this comment!! 😊💯🙌🏻
Its on the unplanned podcast
@@AMo-df4fe not the entire story they had to sum it up and said they were missing so many details to the story!
The greatest gift you can ever give your children is two parents that love each other!
I loved this! Yall all my favs!❤❤❤❤
you guys have a beautiful friendship s2
So I just saw ur haunted stories on Matt and abbeys podcast we need all the detail on yours I could listen to u forever
Matt & Abby are wonderful.
Best podcast I love these chicks. Such good family vibes
Love Matt and Abby! 💚🩷
I think Matt and Abby especially tries to make themselves to be better than other people on social media ❤ 58:28
My parents did not think my man was going to be my man. It was the first adult decision I ever made! But it took me years to get there, because I respect my parents so much.
My husband and I have 5 kids! Married nearly 13 years. ❤
I love you guys. Mean people suck. All six of you plus kids. It’s amazing watching your families. 😊
Per my toddler's "The crayon book of feelings" book, you can have multiple feelings at one time about something. You can be "terrified and a little excited". You can be super happy about having another baby and still feel like things are tough. People need to chill and show a bit of compassion.
Preach sister PREACH
This was such a great podcast. Loved it. Watch all you guys. Great show!! 💕💕
I love Matt & Abby!❤
I was 3 months postpartum when I got pregnant on accident with baby number 2! So we have we two girls that were born within a year of each other, 4 days apart. It was sooo hard! I relate.. very much.
My first child was 7 months when I got pregnant with my 2nd child. They are 16 months apart and I had an absolute blast with them, I would not change anything.
This is really awesome to hear because I'm pregnant with #2, they will be 15 months apart, and I am SCARED 😂😂 I had a super awful postpartum experience with my firstborn and I can't imagine doing that again while also having a crazy toddler haha
I love all you guys you’re so great. I started out watching Derek and Sara Sarah, but then I started watching everybody and I just love all your pop up whatever it’s called. I just love you guys. I look for you guys all the time.
You make me smile❤
You’re all so doggone cute! I could watch you for hours! 🥰💕🤗💕
Honestly, just a side note: transition from 2-3 was SOOOO much easier for me than transitioning to 1. First baby was the hardest transition, hands down. 1 to 2 was so much easier because I already (kind of) knew what I was doing, and while 2 to 3 had some challenges to figure out in terms of more people needing me than hands I have, it was still a much more seamless transition than the first. Granted, I think a healthy gap, if it works out that way, helps, and the oldest really does become such a big helper! :) Loved the conversation!
also, another side note :) I have 3 boys (and a daughter who passed away at 24 weeks gestation)... and I still want 2 more children. I always had 5 set in my mind when thinking of my family an how many kids I could picture having. 5 was it. I get overwhelmed very easily, and my 3 boys are super energetic and I get worn down quick, BUT, it's always around the one year mark of the youngest that I start thinking about getting pregnant again... and closer to the 2 year mark where I am ready to get pregnant again. I'm feeling almost ready to get pregnant again. My boys are currently 7, 4, and 1. Even during the times I don't feel ready to be pregnant again, I still have the feeling that my family is just not "complete" and maybe since our daughter isn't here with us, I will always have that incomplete feeling... but I really do think once we have 5 children with us, I will be ready to move on to the next season of our life. Every family is different, and when you know, you know :)
I reacted exactly the same when I found out I was pregnant back to back and it was my third son.. my mom was also terminally ill and I was putting my oldest son in kindergarten. God just gets you through it ❤
Awe I love Matt & Abby i follow them as well ❤ love you all ❤
I live in AZ with my fiancé and Hendrix (our Frenchie) and I would totally join Abby’s book club! 🫶🏽
I had my last two (4 children total) at 38 /39 years old.. they were 13 months apart! I’ve had all 4 via C Section ❤ I was showing my oldest how to take a pregnancy test, as I had some left over from just being pregnant. I peed on the stick and told her “IF I was pregnant there wld be two lines , but this will have one because I’m not pregnant now” . I walked away to put away towels and she came running up to me a few minutes later and said “mom there are two lines “ … I stood staring at that test for SOOO long before taking several more .. all positive! 😂
This is the best
i absolutely would like to hear about Matt and Abbys faith/spiritual/religious beliefs.
Love Lo and Sarah 🩷💚
I can totally understand how Abby felt when she found out she was pregnant again. When my oldest was 2 months old I found out I was 9 weeks pregnant with my youngest. They are Irish twins and the same age for 2 weeks and 4 days. I felt it was easier having 2 so close together. It felt like having twins.
Girls!!!
Just came back from watching your mentioned ghosty podcast with unplanned, it was fun!
Sarah! We NEED to hear more of that Fork Canyon story, especially I’m curious about the moment you saw that knocking guy’s shorts! Where was he standing? Was he that close you couldn’t see his upper body or was it covered behind the branches or something? Did you see him move? PLEASE tell us more 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Yes matt an abby
Lo an matt should do a song together
I think I’m a little too early too ❤ love ur podcast btw
just love the opening music 🎶🎵♥️🎵🎶
I'm like Matt. I care more about what other people think about me! I, like Matt, wish I was more like you. I have been called Sassy and doesn't care about what others think about me but this video has caused me to see things about myself.
Yes, I have a brother who is narcissistic.
I had a conversation with him one day, " It's not easy being me!" he said to me.
I told him, " It's not easy being your Sister"! I love him but every day of my life I have felt in his Shadow. My Daddy and Grandpa adored me and I adored them! Both have passed on to Heaven! I have loved them and I love Brother but he needs prayer for his narcissistic personality. He thinks of himself to be perfect. No One is perfect except God. He is divorced and living with/off Mom. There are a lot of things that just need prayer. It's a HUGE STORY!
If you want more I am open to talk to you and fill you in. My older brother and I graduated from a private school. My older brother just graduated and I was Valedictorian, Homecoming Queen,Head Cheerleader, Captain of Volleyball Team, and the Only President of the Student Council in a Fundamental Baptist Church/School!
I would love to help you with a topic. I love you Lo,Sarah,Matt and Abby!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I would absolutely love to Arizona to join Abby’s book club🥰 such wholesome humans❤️
Sweet Abby, I know just how she feels finding out you’re pregnant when your baby is so young. 😭 My two girls are 1 year and 19 days apart.. Irish twins mommas!! 💗💖
My sister Stephanie is my younger Irish twin and then my youngest sister Claire came a little over four and a half years after I was born.
I was the same way! I had my daughter in 7/2003, then had a space… then both boys in 2010, 10 months 5 days apart… then had my fourth in the first half of 2012… so at the time of my youngest’s birth I had a newborn, 17mon old, 27mon old, and a 9yr old. It was insanity. Now they’re all teens and early 20’s and it’s great… but I don’t know how I maintained sanity for the early years.
Irish twins are under a year apart. My mom was married in July of 59. Had her first baby on june1st 1960, her second June 8th of 61, her third (me) May 22,62, and her fourth June 7 th of 63. Then over the following 7 years had 3 more girls…🤯
associates degree is a huge accomplishment as well Lo!!
Love you guys
My brother is 12 months and 18 days younger than me. He has two that are a year apart as well. Mine are between 2-4 years apart with 8 kids (set of twins in there too)
I think the Beestons are far from perfect but they are people that are willing to speak the truth ❤
Me encanta Abby es tan simpatica y alegre.
Omg can you guys do a podcast episode on your ghost stories 😎
Lo covering up with the pillow is so relatable and sad at the same time as a girl who is insecure about how I look
I found out we were expecting at 7 months pp with twins 😂😅 it’s what you imagine, hard!! But wouldn’t trade them for the world 💞
Abby is SO ADORABLE!!!!!!
Love y’all
My bed shook by itself. Chalked it up to wind till my husband told me it wasn't windy out. Turns out it was an earthquake. Which is super rare for central IL.
I remember my Mom telling me to "blow the dots apart " in the ceiling.
My husband said he told all of his coworkers that they were pansies but then my Mother was in his way. I wanted to slap my mother but couldn't. My husband was so respectful but asked her to please stop talking. My sister-in-law whose birthday was that day and she was witnessing her nephew being born. The room was full of love so I understand why God blessed us to have him live through the life threatening birth. The Doctor was preparing me for a Still birth.
This Son is so very intelligent in the Web World. He is an Upper level Web Architect! God has blessed us!!!!
I can relate to Abby, I found out I was pregnant with twins at 3 months post partum 😅
2 love these families. My brother and I are literally 12 months and 2 weeks apart I know my mom was very very overwhelmed having me just turned 1 also had a 6 year old and then a newborn
When I got pregnant with my 3rd I also had a lot of mixed feelings like abbey and thought it was very bad of me to feel that
Yall are so rad and wonderful, i would be stoked if yall added more intellectual color to the conversations. Even the dreams episode could have used some research to root the conversation before looping in listener experiences. It would add so much color and nuance into conversation. There are soo many dope pieces about community and love, even bell hooks “all about love” or “communion,” touches upon a lot of the topics yall touch upon
GREAT suggestions but you are giving this crowd waaay too much credit. If I heard bell hooks come out of any of their mouths my head would explode. Also "research" "intellectual color" and "nuance" allude to an educational level, intellectual curiosity and professionalism none of these people care to possess.
can you guys please do a podcast on your haunted house stories/experiences! pleaseeeeeeeeee!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏
I love all of you guys
I love Lo saying “Ghosts are real” 🤣
Miss you guys haven't seen you all n the babies lately where y'all been at guys
Why would someone hate or judge them for getting pregnant after 5 months? I was pregnant at my 12 ish week post baby check up after a cesarean. I was literally on birth control, I took it every single day, I went to every dr apt and did everything I was supposed to do. The pill absolutely did not work for me and my ob was as SHOCKED as I was when they realized I was pregnant by the very end of July after giving birth April 26th. My first son Nathan was born April 26th 2005 my son Ian was born April 19th 2006. They are 11 months 3 weeks apart and nobody hated me. I was married and they were well taken care of and loved 😍😍😍 also I am 38.
Cool podcast❤❤❤
Matt should listen to The Exorcist Files podcast. SO GOOD. And also very logical and informative. Presents the information in a very centered-on-the-truth sort of way.
