  • Ahhhh, secret's out! Ben and I are ready to start the biggest chapter of our lives. The newest member to our lil fam is arriving this fall. This whole experience has been huge for us and I just wanted to share a slice of what was going through my mind.

      Romans 6.23
      For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
      Mark 1.15
      15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
      2 Peter 3:9
      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
      Hebrews 11:6
      6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

    This is probably the most real, raw, refreshing video that I have seen about pregnancy. I feel like women are compelled to feel 1000% happy and joyful and grateful about pregnancy 24/7. As if there is no room for a woman to feel like a human being who is anxious and nervous and fearful and doubtful when she's bringing another human being into this world. And most of the time women feel guilty and won't be honest about these feelings for fear of being judged and being seen as ungrateful and undeserving. So when you see CZcams videos about pregnancy, it's all the beautiful and happy and wonderful. But I mean if I tell someone right now that I don't think I'd like to have kids in the future, people will go ballistic. So thank you for bringing this into light. Let's normalize this.

      @@Drake00000010 you are not one to tell someone if they are in the right stage in their life to have a child, she didnt say that?
      just bc the baby was not planned it does not mean it cant be a good stage to have a child, just bc she was shocked and a mess about it doesnt mean she cant feel good about it after the initial shock has passed. and from experience i can tell that when you have a boss ass bitch mom, youre gonna be fine even if you dont have a father. most likely the child will have other male figures in their life to be there for them anyway.
      sure abortion is an option if she feels like its the right thing to do, but its not your place to tell someone if they are in the right stage or not. and the child will be absolutely fine even if the father is not in the picture.

    I related so hard with all of this. The PCOS, hitting 30, the fear, and wishing I was just excited. Made me tear up. We had our first baby last July and now I can't imagine life without her. She is my world. Congratulations to both of you and thanks for sharing and normalizing this type of journey.

    As a single 27 y/o man without children, I tend to find it hard to relate to pregnancy announcement videos. But the footage and descriptions in this video are so raw and real that I was actually moved to tears and can somehow envision those fears and doubts you had despite my gender and never being put in that situation. I for one still have no desire for children but if what every one else says is true then I will get more interested as I get into my thirties. This video really was well done and I truly only hope for the best for you three! Congratulations!

  • @vargkvinnan
    @vargkvinnan Před 3 lety +270

    I love how real this is. More people need to see the "I'm scared as shit" side of this situation because even if you're someone who has always wanted to be a parent and has meticulously planned a pregnancy, there is still fear for many reasons. And to anyone who needs it: ALL YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID AND NORMAL.
    Don't beat yourself up and feel guilty for feeling fear, doubt or even wishing you weren't pregnant anymore. And if you've already had a kid, don't feel bad for feeling stressed from being a parent and sometimes wishing your life were different. It happens and doesn't mean you're a bad parent.
    You are human and being human is complicated. Our moods are always changing and our lives are stressful. And things like pregnancy literally change your body's chemistry both during and after. That complicates things further.
    Feel what you need to feel. Talk to someone when you need to talk. And no matter what path you take, you're not wrong and your emotions are normal.

I pray that, though I might not have a family of my own, i will get to have my friends' kids as kind of my own family, and that I will be as much of a part of their kids lives as I hope they are in my life, because i know i will love the little ones just as much as i consider my own friends like my family.

    My sister and I have been watching your videos since 2013, we were each 11 and 14. Being Korean American, we grew up following you like you were a big sister to us. You didn't only open our eyes to fashion and makeup, but you also gave us advice on how to be more confident, and just how to be a good person in general.
    We have already cried many times to your videos(your wedding with Ben, what you have learned in your 20s..), but this made us cry so hard. My sister just screamed my name when she saw the notification, and we ran to the sofa and sat down to hear this beautiful news together.
    We just want to say that we have faith in you and Ben to be amazing parents. I know this because you literally raised us to be good. Without you and your channel, we wouldn't have become the people we are now. We are so full of emotions that can't be put into words. We love you and your family with all of our hearts. Congratulations on starting a new chapter of your lives!

And if you make a mistake, like we all do, you will communicate and learn and grow because that is the type of person you are. An abusive parent won't be willing to take that step, to communicate, to fix. Don't you ever worry, you are going to be amazing.

      @@imjennim Congratulations, dont worry you will be fine, pregnancy, motherhood will Definetly change everything, but in a good way, it is like a test the relationship with you and God (doesnt matter what religion, God is the One and Only Creator of everything). Motherhood gives you so much love and Joy that you couldnt imagine you will feel, trust me, your heart will expand so much... But of course hormonal changes, lack of sleep will make you tired sometimes, but always remember it is temperary, the baby grows so fast, and remember in the end of the Day it is a Blessing to carry a baby and give birth to a New human being (so many women dream to be a mother). Be gentle with yourself, trust God, dont worry, babies and kids want happy parents, not Perfect ones. P.s. Pregnant women always a step closer to God whether she belives in Him or not, (so you will noticed that your desires and wishes comes true quicker at this period of time, i noticed from myself when i was pregnant i won the giveaway i dreamed of lol) and where there is Faith there is no fear:)

I’ve always struggled with intense anxiety around the idea of being pregnant, having kids, etc., and I’m so glad you shared your raw feelings in this way. Thank you for showing it’s okay to feel negative in light of such seemingly positive news, and that everyone is allowed to feel anxious but also excited and everything in-between. We’re human, and no one should feel ashamed for whatever emotions they feel at these big life milestones. You’re an absolute queen, and I’m so happy for you both.

    I got pregnant at 32. Married at 30. When I found out I was pregnant by using the test kit, I was alone. My husband was overseas for work. I cried in the bathroom for the longest time. My relationship with my mom was never good. So I questioned myself "Would I be a bad mom?" "Would my kid love me no matter what?" I went to the doc to get a retest because I still didn't believed I was pregnant! My daughter will be 9 this year and I love her to bits! She is the best thing that ever happened to me and being a mum is the most best and rewarding, the most tired and never ending job, the most unappreciated job where you will always be judged, but No Regrets! You will be a great Mom Jenn. Yes, we will doubt ourselves all the time, and think that sometimes we just wanna give up, but Moms are strong! You will rock at it!
