Youre so relatable! I love when you do real life like this on youtube.
Aw yay! So glad you liked it!💕
A ditl video! Now I feel like my imaginary friendship with you is a little more real 🤣
I love watching these type of videos and this one is great bc it is real. You are real. Love it
😊🥰💕 so glad you guys can see I’m just an average mom!
I really love these videos. You’re a normal mom, not like one of those perfect, Pinterest house moms
Exactly what I want you guys to see💕
This is why I also love your videos real life 👌🏻
Yaaaa!!! Love these types of videos! It makes me feel somewhat normal lol. I only have one little one and can’t keep it together 🤷🏽♀️
I love these real life videos! I'm a mom of three as well (3 y/o, 1.5 y/o, and a 3 month old) and it's like a breath of fresh air to see a relatable day in the life! Thank you for sharing with us! From one tired momma to another, you're rocking it! 🤍
Aw I bet you are too momma!💕
I 💚 these DITL videos of yours so much! So real and relatable.
💕💕💕
Omg I got so excited when you said you were gonna review the medela free style flex lol! 💕❤️🙌🏼 I cant wait for those videos!
Because of you I have been ep for 8 months so far! Lansinoh was my favorite pump and I was an over supplier until 2 months ago now I make just enough! So thankful for your videos. I found the fb group you recommended as well
So happy I could help momma! Congrats on 8 months, that’s awesome!🥳💕
Just clicked to watch and I’m so excited! You are perfect mama, and you look beautiful in the morning.
You’re so sweet! I always think I look like a gremlin😅
LOVED this vlog! Now im craving more lol... cant wait for the next one! Your girls are ADORABLE X3! ❤️
It’s inspired me to do more since you guys have enjoyed it so much!😊💕
Your girls are gorgeous! Watching your videos has been helping me so much with my pumping journey ❤
Aw thank you so much! Happy to help momma💕
I love this video style! So relatable to everyday life with kids.
I also exclusive pump for my 6 month old. I have a chronic under supply. I’ve watched a lot of your other videos and tried what feels like everything to increase, but nope. In your opinion can supply be increased 6 months postpartum (when supply has been an issue the whole time)?
Thanks for your videos. That was the main resource for me learning about exclusive pumping!
Im wondering about the same mine is about to be 4 months and I'm struggling with my supply and trying not to stress about it while still trying to figure out everything as I go..best of luck to you and I hope it works out 👍🙂
Aw so glad you liked it! Supply probably can be increased, it’s just harder. If you’ve tried troubleshooting momma then it may be time to see an IBCLC. While not all are fluent in exclusively pumping they can probably help you find a cause for the undersupply. Hope you get some answers soon but you’re doing awesome regardless!💕
Momma Alia , thanks for replying! A couple months ago I did speak with a public health nurse for my area about it (I live in Canada and lactation consultants don’t seem as easy available - at least in my experience- here than it would appear to be in the US). She mostly suggested things I’ve already tried and even asked several times if I would consider just nursing my baby instead, after I told her I exclusively pump. For a number of reasons nursing did not work for us so this seemed like the happy medium. I politely told her ‘no thanks, it’s not for us’. All she really suggested that was new was to get up in the middle of the night for an extra pump session. I’m already on prescription medication from my OB to help, though it doesn’t seem to help too much.
In any case, I will continue to do the best I can, and try not to stress that much over it.
Thanks again!!
I love your videos I love to get informative and even if it's considered nosey when you're doing these type of things even when it's when you're with your girls I like to see everything do not shorten your videos
😊💕 thank you!
Definitely do more of these! You’re so relatable and there are very few bloggers who still are! Maybe 1 a week (to start haha)
It’s inspired me to do more since you guys loved it so much!💕
This is so nice to see the REAL life of it all! I am a Mom of 1 and breastfed and even watching this getting a vision of what it'd be like with 3 children...wooohhh! I give you credit! You're a great Momma and are doing an A+ job!
Aw you’re too sweet! Just trying to manage over here😊💕
Honestly I loved this whole video. It really showcases who you actually are, which we see on Instagram but in most of your videos, we don’t see this side. You are so funny, relatable, and lovely! I would definitely like to see more of this! I know it was a lot of work, but this was so great!
You’re too sweet! Agreed, I want to do more!😊💕
I play the same game with picking the toys up under my couch lol! Love your videos and how real you are!
🥰💕 in solidarity!
I almost bought the Medela flex, but with my job (it’s a family owned business I basically run most of the time and I work by myself a lot) it’s so hard to fit pump breaks in so I decided to get the freemie so that I can pump at work or while I’m working discreetly
Yesss so excited for this.
🥰💕
"it's because CHAOS is a thing", yesssssss! I have an 8yo, 5yo and I'm 38 weeks now. Start homeschooling on Monday and I'm actually relieved I won't be getting the oldest two off to school first thing in the morning.
Yes, silver lining I don't have to worry about that anymore!
Loooooove these videos 🥰🥰🥰 you're such a funny girl 😁
😊😘💕
Your so good about your supply! Love that your sharing about it but also bringing awareness to over supply not being normal. Still sad that the milk bank said no. 💖
I like that you mention you oz because I also have an over supply I pump like 18-25oz each time and I always have to tell people it’s not normal 🤣
Good for you momma! That’s awesome! I wish more would so others know not to compare themselves!
“I love that for you.” The best phrase ever 😂🤣
It really is😅
I had an over supply with ly son but i exclusively nursed and used a haakaa to collect what my son didnt nurse out and i would bag and donated it to a friend who had lack of glandular tissue. I used hm4hb to find her and i helped feed her son for 12months. If i used my spectra i got alot of milk out but exclusively nursing was way easier than EPing for me
What an awesome breastfeeding journey momma😍 super glad you found something that worked for you!
I’m 6.5mpp down to 3ppd making 45opd. My freezer has 4,800oz. I enjoyed watching this video because it was relatable to me as an oversupplier. Thank you for sharing your day! I also have a 2 year old so finding ways to entertain them both is the hardest.
😊😊💕
Really enjoyed the video!!! We still haven't watched Frozen 2. Waiting for it to be in Red box tomorrow.
Soooo good!
Lmao at 16:57
Every. Time. We are .5 seconds from home 😭
Love this video and how relatable it is! You should do more drive with me vlogs I love it!
😊💕 i will!
I can so relate to you on so many levels ❤️I can’t wait for the freestyle flex video 🥰 I really need all the details 👍
😊😊💕 coming next week!
This video is everything! I’m a stay at home mom with 3 boys 5, 2 and 9 months and my day goes pretty much like this too! Except we have finished our breastfeeding journey. I do miss it though! Thank you for this video!
😊💕💕
Hello, do I need to rinse my pump parts out before putting them in the fridge to reuse later? I haven’t been rinsing them out ...just putting them in the fridge. Thank you 🙏🏼
I think you’ll get a different answer no matter who you ask. Officially the recommendation is that you do but I’ve been there and don’t rinse mine. If you have a medically fragile baby or premie I would rinse them out🙂
We put in to possibly PCS (army relocation) to ohio for my husband and he requested blacklick area cause his buddy is stationed there. I homeschool and if we go there i will still hoemschool but i commend the people who do multi drop offs
Literally watching while pumping 😂 I’m still nursing most of the time but I EP’d with my first so it almost feels more natural to pump lol
😊💕
“They should be telling me to get my ****
together” 😂😂😂😂
Honestly😂💀
How long you leave out your first few pumps till you stored them?
Only until the next session like I showed. Then I store the milk
have you used the medela advance lately?
No, I haven’t!
Did you find any problems with introducing caffeine this time around? Have you noticed any difference with Lexi as compared to your first two with sleeping/gas/fussiness?
No! I can’t remember noticing a change in any of my babies with caffeine!
its an illllluuusssssiiioooonnn lol i feel you!
🙈🙂😅💕
What type of flanges do you use again?
21 mm Medela!
Why do you not use a double pump or hands free pump system? Just wondering!
I am hands free, just can’t see it! I made a video recently explaining single versus double pumping!
cleaning the grime out of the little green machine is impossible, do you have any tips? :/
It’s not perfect but immediately after use fill up your sink with super hot water, turn the little green on, stick the hose into the water and let it suck it up. If all else fails they have replacement parts on amazon which I’ve done lol!
Are you still planning on doing part 3 of the storage bag reviews?
Yes! It’s been hard getting shipping on the few I had left to review so it’ll be up as soon as possible!
Lol about your little ones hair my daughter is almost 4 months she was born with a full head of hair but shes always looking like Coolio even though I do my best so I feel u on that.
I gave up trying to tame it😅
Can you please do an updated bottle video?
Do you mean bottle review? If so, there won’t be one. It caused issues with feeding last time I did ones years ago. Lexi eats well from her Joovy boob bottles so I don’t want to do anything that would change that😊
What bottles do you use to feed?
Joovy Boob bottles!
Did you start pumping in the hospital or did you nurse first?
I nursed after birth until around day 2 and then I pumped because my oversupply already started. I have a naturally elevated level of prolactin so it comes on pretty quick.
What can I do to boost my milk supply
I have a video on my channel in my EP series about it!
Okay.
What kind of car do you have that fits 3 carseats? :D
Subaru Ascent 7 seater😍 there’s a couple videos on my channel about it!
@@MommaAlia thank you I'm going to go look now!
I have a 6 year old, 5 year old, and 2 year old, and I have a hard time dropping off and picking up my kids too....I tell my kids we are a hot mess in the morning 😂
Oh I feel that😂💕
The breaks for mom stern voice i felt that in my soul. This is me with my 5.5yr old and my 1.5yr old. They bicker than my son tries to be "cute" and say he wants boob 😂
😂😂💕
Would you consider having one of your kids taking the bus? Perhaps your oldest? Maybe it would be a cute big girl thing for her too ♡
They’ll be in a different school district so the bus won’t be able to take them. But I have nothing against them taking it if they were able to!
😊💕💞
🥰💕
"Lets do this"
*chugs coffee*
I feel you 🤣
😂😂💕
