My third wasn't planned, but she is loved so much. She is 30 now! I don't think you should worry about admitting a child wasn't planned. You do an amazing job and are so honest, and I'm sure you will be an inspiration to other young mothers. Breast versus bottle feeding is such a controversial subject. I like the fact that you chose at one point to bottle feed for very valid reasons. I think new mothers can feel pressured to breast or bottle feed. Do what fits with you. If you are happier and it makes sense to bottle feed, then do it without apologies. I am not against breastfeeding at all. But I only successfully breastfed one of my 3 children, and I did feel guilty for years. Loved the vlog. Have a great holiday 😀
Thank you so much Joanne 🥰❤️
Yes definitely it's such a difficult subject and a baby having a bottle brings so much guilt that it just shouldn't. Breastfeeding is HARD. Thank you so much ❤️
I don’t know why people don’t like you saying Hero wasn’t planned. My eldest daughter wasn’t planned and I was on the pill, everyone presumed I’d forgotten to take it , but I hadn’t it took it religiously . I was 20 and definitely hadn’t planned to have a baby that young, but these things happen and obviously I’m so happy and proud of my daughter and loved being a mum, she was such a happy baby which was so lucky. I have 3 children, all grown up now, but if I’d had my youngest first, it would’ve put me off having any more I think 🤣She never slept and was a very unsettled baby x
Yes they do happen and we are always so happy to have them so I never understand why people get offended by it. Awww thats really sweet Andrea xx
Enjoyed that love, thanks for taking the time to do it. I know what you mean regarding certain family members, I've been in the same position, still are in a way, I use to let things get to me & it would play on my mind a lot, I would get upset, but over time I realised that it's their loss, I've been through a lot these past years but in a way it's made me stronger. xx
Yes same!! Its lovely when you come to the realisation that you can't change it so there's no point worrying! Xxx
Glad for another video!
I dont understand why anyone could not like you laurien you are a beautiful lady and curtis a great father ❤❤ i love all your children xxx
Aw thank you soo much Linda 🥰 ❤️❤️❤️

Hi Laurien I am so excited for you and your beautiful family getting your new home and once it's finalised and you can finally move in and make another beautiful chapter in your lives you've been waiting so long for this hopefully not much longer and great Q&A and you are such a wonderful mum ❤
Thank you so much Lou ❤️❤️❤️
@@OrdinaryEnglishMum you were so welcome ❤️❤️❤️
So glad you are doing so well ❤️ you really are such a natural mother it's wonderful to see! We have just found out we are expecting our third, so I am glad you said you found your third the easiest 🤣 hope you are having a lovely holiday! Xx
Thank you soo much. Oh thats amazing congratulations!! Definitely was the easiest. We are thanks so much xx
I love your q&a’s they are always fun.
Thank you so much ❤️
I empathised when you said you you’d be driving Cosmo around at 3 in the morning when he didn’t sleep, my husband did that with our daughter too. 😂 He would get stopped by the police asking why he was driving around at that time of morning to which he’d reply, “Trying to get my daughter to sleep and you’ve just woke her up.” 🤣
I can laugh now but not at the time. My goodness it was torture. Xx
Omg yes my youngest wouldn't sleep for a year or so and we used to drive in circles it was the worst year of my life soo exhausted 🫣😆
Hahahaha yes it was a tough year and a half 🤣🤣🤣
Also when Here was first born I did think he looked like Roo but now I see you& Cosmo x
Loved the question's and Answers hope you had a lovely holiday 🤗🫶🏴
Thank you so much ❤️
Hi laurien I really enjoyed your q&a your looking so happy and baby hero is a delight to see take care 🌹🥰
Thank you so much Cheryl ❤️ 💓
You really are the loveliest lady ❤
Thank you soo much 🥰 🤍
A great Q&A , little hero is gorgeous ❤
Aw thank you so much ❤️
I had the same attitude towards birth control,my husband had a vasectomy, really enjoyed the video xx
Ah thats good! I'm always worried 10 years down the line it won't work haha xx
Hi Laurien loved this Q&A so interesting.My two sons are now 38&36 almost 37.When they were young they had a bedroom each but always ended up sleeping together🤗Take care xxx
Ah thats so cute 🥰❤️❤️
Hope you all have a lovely holiday!! 💖
Thank you so much ❤️
I totally agree with the family thing hun, I feel like my sil I am only fam when it's good for her. Also I am so against kids having homework, no reason a child should get homework from aged 6❤❤❤❤
Definitely!! 🥰❤️❤️❤️
I must admit I always wanted a daughter partly as I hadsuch a good relationship with my mom but I have 2 boys who I absolutely adore and are my world. I would of liked a 3 rd baby but my husband kept giving my practical reasons not too ( space, costs etc..) and I do sort of regret it now xx🤷♀️
Hope your move goes well when it happens. Xx
Aw I bet they are, boys are amazing and so loveable aren't they. Thank you so much xx
AWESOME VLOG.........
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much ❤️ 💓 💗
I have a difficult relationship with my eldest daughter, it isn’t easy. Xx
Oh I'm so sorry Liz that's so sad xxx
Hi there just want to say I hope you all are having a nice time away.
Thank you so much we are having a lovely time xx
Hi lovely family xx

@@OrdinaryEnglishMum sorry to hear that laurien it's so stressful and unpredictable i won't believe ours till we move really hope yours makes a turn around will keep my fingers crossed 🤞 for you take care ❤️❤️❤️
I think when hero was born I saw Curtis but now he really looks like u and cosmo. ❤❤
I see Curtis sometimes but not so much as I did with the others 🥰❤️❤️❤️
You're a beautiful motivating mum. I just don't know how you do it but you do. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I'm due in August with my second and I'm just so worried about how I'll keep the house in order due to my OCD. Any advice would be appreciated xx
Hi your question resonated with me as I was very worried about this whenI had my babies and now I’m 64 and have grandchildren I look back and realise how quickly time goes and how it didn’t matter .
@janeforrest6838 thank you for your thoughtful and insightful response. I appreciate it as it eased my anxiety. Life is short and I guess we should enjoy our children whilst they're young and older. Thank you!
Thank you so much & Jane is so right. Everytime before the babies I stress about a clean tidy house all in order and once the baby is hear I dont think about it like I did. Its nice to have it clean and tidy but it definitely isn't a worry like you think it will be when the baby is here xx
@OrdinaryEnglishMum thank you laurien I appreciate your honesty and even responding as well! I am just anxious due to my ocd but I know like you said it will work out and things will fall in place. Thank you 😊
I just had to reply as this is something I too have struggled with. I have OCD and the house being clean and tidy is often on my mind. My bubba is 15 weeks and whilst they give you something more important to focus on they don’t cure OCD unfortunately but I too agree life is short and I try to remember that every single day when I have an urge to clean something. I also decided to set myself a time slot once a week where I do household chores. I do not allow myself to do stuff until that slot and I feel relaxed knowing that I’ve got that time to sort things out. I also make sure that time where I do chores is a reasonable duration that isn’t too long and whilst my husband is home to spend time with our baby. Wishing you well for your little bubba coming soon 💛.

1-2 was the easiest transition for me. 0-1 was SO HARD!
Now Hero needs a little brother 😍🩵 xx
Haha now that would be cute 🥰🩵🩵
You are amazing 😀 I really want a 3rd but I am scared to do it x
I'm becoming a second time mum. How did you manage from the change from 1 to 2, sorry if it's personal but I'm quite anxious as I'm due in August. So any advice would be appreciated. Xx
@@vforvendetta5587 1 to 2 I found great but I left quite a gap in age my oldest was 6 and was extremely happy to have a baby brother so was extra helpful 😀. Going from 0-1 was hardest for me. I was stressed too at the time but the baby just joins the family routine and it all works out. X
@keelylouise5622 thank you for your advice. We also have an age gap and he will be 6 before she arrives or just about to turn 6 depending on when she comes! Thank you for your reassurance
Thank you so much and don't be scared! It always gets easier eventually and so worth it! Xx
@OrdinaryEnglishMum thank you you're an amazing mother, dedicated and a motivation to us mothers!! ❤️
