BABY GIRL HAUL: bit.ly/babyclothinghaul note: This update was filmed when I turned 32 weeks pregnant. This was BEFORE my hospital visit with pre-term labor. That experience will be in next week's update. As I've explained before, I purposely release my pregnancy updates the following week to give me time to shoot, edit and upload them consistently for you all. Love you all!!!!
I always liked that u have boundaries when it comes to filming. You seem to have a great balance when to film and when it's time to put the camera down and focus on your family. Keeping you in my prayers :)
I have followed you since you announced your pregnancy with the twins. Since then, I finally had a little girl of my own (after trying for 2 years). However, my water broke at 26 weeks and I had her at 28 weeks and 4 days. We are very blessed, and she is completely healthy. But after you announced this pregnancy, I was worried it would bother me too much to watch your updates after 28 weeks because my nerves are still so raw from everything with my little girl, and if I'm being honest, I feel jealous sometimes, of what I missed out on. I honestly have not watched any of these updates since your 26 week update because the memories came flooding back. But for whatever reason, I watched today, and I'm so glad I did. It probably seems ridiculous that it would bother me so much, and it feels ridiculous telling you all this. I just want to thank you for being so positive and understanding throughout the hard days and the tired days, because having a premature baby is not in any way easy. A year later I still struggle. Instead of bringing my baby home right after birth, I spent 77 days watching her grow and fight for her life in the NICU, 4 hours away from our home and our family. So, thank you, for encouraging moms to push through and being such a positive example for when things are very hard and it would be so much easier to not be pregnant. Thank you. â€
Don't feel ridiculous, dear! I am so glad you spoke up and shared your experience. What a crazy journey you've been on. I'm honored that I could even be a little encouragement. I admire you for your strength. I know you'll be able to share with a mom someday your experience and really bless her with your insight. Things happen for a reason and it seems you're already able to look at your struggle and gain strength from it! Rock on!!
Natalie Bennett I'm actually a nurse and always said I would NEVER do labor & delivery, or nursery, or anything of the sort. Until this little girl. I started as a nursery nurse in November and I have loved it! I have had the opportunity to share with moms going through what I went through and it has been such a blessing. God gave me this girl and our journey to change me and call me into the ministry He wanted me to be in, no matter how much I was trying to deny itđ
C. Harris wow! It takes a special heart to work in those kinds of units. Someone has to be willing to do some of the less pleasant things to care for others. I'm sure there are are so many touching moments as well. Glad your baby is ok.
C. Harris sorry to ask this here. My husband is in the USA right now and we live out of the country. Due to placenta previa my doctors are saying my baby might be very early as well. With my toddler I breastfed only but with this one when she is born may be too young to nurse....so what formula would you recommend that is good for preemies?
m0nkey I pumped for my daughter since she was to small to latch. We did wind up switching to formula when she was 6 months old due to an allergy. But there is a special preemie formula the nicu uses for babies who aren't getting breastmilk.
my back loves when i lay on my back too! but yes the babies go wild when i do. I try not to stay there for too long, but it does bring relief on those sore spinal discs and muscles!
bless u Natalie. we sure know that you're so genuine and sweet in your videos you don't need to justify. we absolutely love watching your vlogs n keep praying for you n your baby. đ
That's so sweet of you to say. With both of my channels growing, I have seen much more negativity in the comments and just wanted to clarify why I look and sound happy in my videos (even when I'm having a bad day.) Making videos is my passion and it lifts my mood any time!
I'm 28 weeks and feeling like I still have SO much time to go. As much as I'm uncomfortable, I'm so grateful for a healthy pregnancy and definitely praying to go full term. Thank you for this encouragement Natalieâ€ïž I needed to hear it today!
Coming from a mama of a 34 weeker (I had severe preeclampsia) thank you so much for speaking on how important it is to not wish the baby would come early instead of baking til the end. The NICU is hard and I would have given anything for those last 6 weeks of discomfort! I'm looking forward to every day of my next pregnancy âș I love your positive attitude, it's so contagious!!
32w 4d. It's like I've been pregnant all my life & I feel so happy when I think that I've day I'll not be pregnant. But having said that I want my baby to be there for as long as it has to.
I can't believe how far along we are now! I'm 30 weeks on Sunday. When I found out I was pregnant I had no idea what to expect so I went right to CZcams to try and find someone about as far along as me that I could follow so I would know what to expect. I've been watching you the whole time and I love your updates :)
I found myself nodding along with everything you were saying!!!! I love how honest you are. I found my second pregnancy SO much harder because I had a toddler to take care of and chase after and you have two toddlers, so I cannot imagine how tired you are. Try not to be too hard on yourself and don't beat yourself for having a bad day. You are not alone, it happens to everyone! Pregnancy is hard and taking care of little ones while pregnant is even harder! Sending positive thoughts and good wishes your way!
You are a very beautiful and glowing! I gain 60 pounds in my pregnancy and I have 15 pounds left to loose. It is definitely a journey. Prayers for you and baby girl!!!
31 weeks today. I just want to say THANK YOU for the pick me up in your video it really made me feel better. I just have to trust the process and baby girl will be here when she's ready.
I'm so glad you made that comment. I hear moms want to have their babies early or tell me how lucky I was to have had my boy at 35 weeks and it breaks my heart! He spent 5 days in the NICU and it was the hardest thing I ever had to experience. Good luck with the remainder of your pregnancy and lots of love from Uruguay!
Oh honey. You are one of the most genuine youtubers I know. I love the fact that your videos are so genuine. Every week when I watch I just feel so encouraged. God is using you to bless so many other mamas. I'm sorry you've had so many negative comments. Thank you for sharing your life with us! I'm not even pregnant, but we are ttc baby #3! We have 2 boys 4 and 18 months. Planning to re watch these when I'm pregnant again. Sending much love. â€ïž
I'm also 32/33 weeks and goodness I'm so exhausted and aching all the time. My belly is measuring small but the baby isn't so these movements are definitely going from cute to OUCH! My ribs and bladder are probably crying at this point. I'm ready for baby to be here but I think I'll secretly miss being pregnant, (even though I've had tons of complications & pains) I'd do it all again. †Creating a little human is the most amazing thing I've ever done.. wow I'm about to cry now, so I'll stop here and say Thank You so much for your videos! They really make my day! đ
I would have LOVED to carry my baby to full term! So thankful he is healthy and thriving but having him 5 weeks early made a huge difference!! So glad you encouraged people to be thankful and patient!! đđŒđđŒ praying for you're labor and delivery!!
Hey Natalie! It's awesome that you have this outlet. As a mom of 3 little ones I know how important it is to have a little me time, and be able to do something that makes you happy and is your own. Your doing an amazing job as a hard working mommy and I enjoy all your videos.
Thank you so much for the encouragement, you said exactly what I needed to hear. Iâm watching this video (again) years later and it really calmed me down. Iâm so glad you documented both of your pregnancies! A warm hug full of love đ
Thank you for the encouragement!! I've been in and out of labour and am now only 30 weeks and know she's safer in there than out but at the same time I'm so done with the roller coaster of up and down that I want it to be done and just have her here and safe. Thank you again!! Needed it after spending the day in the hospital đ
I just want to say I'm so glad I happened upon your channel. You are such a positive light! Don't let any negativity dampen your spirit. Also, I have a 17 MO daughter -- little girls are soo much fun, you will love having a baby girl. And... I'm 11 weeks with #2, here I go again!
Thanks for the encouragement! I'm actually just exiting my first trimester, but my first born went to 42 weeks, so this still feels like it applies (both present and past!). It's also nice to hear that you have tough days, too. (Not that I want you to feel bad, but it's nice for the sake of perspective...). I'm also going for a natural vbac, so I'm definitely cheering you on!!
Iâm at 32 weeks pregnant today, and I totally relate with you about the hormones and the baby movement! Thank you for keeping these videos in a playlist for us new mamas :)
I love watching your updates on baby girl! I kept track when you were pregnant with your boys--so much fun seeing the changes! When I was pregnant with my son--who is now 5 months old--my last trimester lasted for what it seemed like forever...had him at 38w5d pregnant. I love my Maverick so very much!
Fellow twin boy mama here! My little goobers came unexpectedly at 32 weeks, and you're totally right...it's so much better to keep 'em cooking if possible! I was so lucky that we actually had very limited health issues considering my boys had twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome - one babe needed a transfusion, but other than that, they only were on oxygen for one day, and just had to be in the NICU to grow and learn to eat. We were there for 5 weeks and it definitely would have been easier to just be pregnant for those 5 weeks but we were so thankful they were as healthy as they were, and that the nurses were so incredible!
I'm really happy for your family! You really show me the beauties of pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting. God really blesses you with so many great talents. Thanks for your teachings. God bless.
I'm 27 weeks pregnant and kind of frustrated because my case is so complicated! I am getting chemotherapy treatment as I found out I have breast cancer at 15 weeks. Thankfully Bub is growing normally and hasn't had any adverse effects from the drugs. The doctors are still confused about when to induce me, and they were thinking I might have to have my baby at 36 weeks, but I wish I could go longer. I love watching your updates though! It's great to keep up with your experience.
I totally get it I really do I have 4 children and terrible 2s isn't easy and your dealing with 2 plus ur gonna need to heal and rest after you have your baby but its a lot harder when there's a newborn on top of the boys . I just know youll do just fine and adjust to a routine and I think you'll do just fine . All happiness and the best to u and the rest. That's why I watch you cause your such a pure hearted person
I'm 23 weeks tomorrow and this is my first pregnancy. I feel like so many people try to get labor going before its intended and necessary. I know being in the 3rd trimester will not be the most fun experience to have in hot weather but I wouldn't have it any other way. I just started to watch your videos and I love your personality! I pray I will make it to 40 weeks, due July 3rd with a baby boy :)
I love how real you are discussing this. I'll be honest, I've thought the same thinking, if I had mastitis I don't know if I could smile while talking about it! But what you said makes a lot of sense and it's nice to know you're like the rest of us :)
I just commented this on another video but with A growing channel comes more and more opportunities for negative people and comments. I hate that it is that way because is loyal viewers "know" you and love your positive attitude/personalityâ€ïž It always baffles me that people on CZcams are not allowed to look awesome and be positive! Haha it's like a "no no" in the CZcams worldâșïžâșïž. Love your videos!
These updates are so helpful for first time moms like me...i know what to expect next week...even though every pregnancy is different but still helps alooooooooot. Thankyou natalie â€ïž
I'm one week behind you in my pregnancy and I TOTALLY understand what you mean! Some people don't realize that these videos are just a small moment of your day and pregnancy while chasing small ones around all day is exhausting! Most days I'm lucky to do my hair right now đ
You are glowing Natalie!! So very excited for baby girl to arrive đ My older sister is due March 25th with her second boy!!! I'm too excited for him to arrive as well and that will be my 7th nephew, from all of my other siblings' children as well! And I've just been waiting for a little niece for the longest now but that's okay, it will be great to see your baby girl grow!! I am so happy for you all! Also my sister is also planning on a vbac! So hopefully everything works out for you all as well!
Aww... Natalie, you look lovely as ever. I don't think you should be made to feel like you need to explain being happy and joyful. Having joy, even in the difficult times, is a fruit of the spirit. Not to mention, you are carrying beautiful and precious life in you. I am just about 32 weeks pregnant now and I am feeling exhausted also. It could be that my husband and I are moving into a new and beautiful house from our apartment. Even though I am not doing much I still feel exhausted going back and forth. I also have been having some painful contractions. It may be because I am a little dehydrated. I was woken up in the middle of the night last night with them. Turning on my right side helped to make them stop though. I don't know why that is, do you? I want her to stay in there as long as possible but there is also a part of me that is inpatient to meet her. Thank you for the encouragement! Lovely video as always! :-)
I wish you'd show more of the hard moments!! I feel like not enough people are genuine in that way on CZcams. Or even talk about them more in Vlogs/updates like these!
I am 32 weeks and also overly tired, I feel not sad but just unmotivated to do anything fast pace or that takes a lot of energy. God bless I don't have a single stretch mark on my stomach or back of hips, BUT I have them all over my butt and side of butt/upper thighs! My baby was also head down at my 30 week appointment,
Natalie thank you so much for the advice and encouragement!! I am struggling with impatience already at just 22 weeks! I was worried that is would just continue to get worse but the reminder really helps! :)
Tell me about it. I'm 31 weeks and by this point I just want to be on bed or I'll fall asleep anywhere. Unfortunately I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and I have to be active and monitoring my glucose levels. I definitely feel moody, emotional and very sensitive about everything. I'm just learning to deal with it and trying to be relax. So I understand you Natalie. We're almost there! Your videos give me strength and guide.
Im almost 34 weeks! Im due 2 days before you so we might have little birthday buddies! Im having a little baby boy and my symptoms this week have been swollen hands and feet and a really sore back! Also i am extremely exhausted!! We are naming him Kody! I absolutely love that name and already it suits him! He is a very active little fella! And ive also been through pre term labour at 30 weeks! Was the scariest thing in the world! Was getting very strong consistent contractions and we were all ready fir me to give birth, So i got in the birthing pool so i can get some pain relief and get ready for a water birth and within 5 mins the contractions completely stopped out of nowhere! Im so blessed that this baby wants to bake for a little bit longer! Im now on strict bed rest so all ive been doing really is baby shopping online! Hehe! Im from Australia and it is super hot! Its been up to 45 degrees celsius and i feel like i an going to melt! Its been very hard to stay on bed rest so ive been getting in the pool trying to get some mild exercise by just floating around and its been great! Im also really wanting to start doing my own Mummy and Makeup vlogs after baby is born but i dont exactly know which camera to get and how to edit the videos but if i do end up getting all set up id love for you to suscribe to my channel! Also sorry for this huge comment but i have one more thing. You are so inspirational to me and your positive vlogs from your other channel has really helped me some days! So thankyou so much for that! Oh and by the way, you are so pretty!! Xoxo
So exciting! It will be so fun to experience having a little sibling. I love being MUCH older than my younger brother. We have a very special bond as a result.
My son turns 2 at the end of April...and I am currently 35 weeks pregnant with another baby boy. I have a c-section scheduled for March 31st. My OB wanted me to do a vbac. At my 20 week anatomy scan we found out that this baby has a 2 vessel umbilical cord. My first also had a 2 vessel umbilical cord. So since one of the vessels are missing there is a risk of the vessel that's working twice as hard giving out. If that happens my son could die before he's even born. Needless to say the closer we get to my due date, the more dangerous it gets. That's why my husband and I are choosing to do another c-section.
Thank you for that! Not that I want my daughter to be born early, but I did tell my husband last night I was done being pregnant! I'm 32 weeks as well :) (as of tomorrow) I look forward to your video's every week!
You look stunning in so glad baby girl is still in cookinđ I totally get the days your grumpy a mom and pregnant I have them as I have a almost 4 year old son and I'm 20 weeks pregnant. I have days when I don't want to talk to anyone and don't want to leave the house. But I also have days where I put make up in get dressed and drag my butt out of the house and do my mommy/wife duties. Bless you Natalie
I'm so glad you two are okay! My birthday is April 24th and I only know one person who has that birthday. So I wonder if you'll have her on my birthday!! You're such high spirit! You're always so happy in your videos and that is one of the things I love about you! It makes my day better.
I am gland you are doing well and baby girl is growing! :-) I have that same scarf and I love it! It's one of my favorites! It's so soft! :-) Looking forward to the next update!
Hello Natalie! I have been a subscriber since your pregnancy with your boys and I love your Chanel so much! I am always making sure to watch your new videos! You have such a cute little family. I am currently pregnant with my first! I am due June 1st with a baby girl and I am beyond excited to experience motherhood! I also cant wait to see video of your girl and also the twins getting her. How do you feel about them meeting her for the first time? I think they will be such great big brothers! I hope your little one stays cooking in your belly a little longer and when the time comes you have a safe, smooth labor & delivery!
My mom had my twin brother and I about a month early because we were doing something to her bloodstream and then had my little sister in a vbac two years later and said the vbac was so much easier to recover from, so I hope you can have the type of birth with baby girl!
You and I are only like a couple days apart :-) or maybe a week. either way I love listening to you and your symptoms; our pregnancy has been a lot alike, in fact the day you went to the hospital I went to the doctors because of my contractions. plus we both live in the same state. anyhow can't wait to watch your week 33 video I have been keeping an eye out
Hey Natalie...Hope you're doing amazing ! I don't know why but I really want to see you and Weston sit down and talk about the baby and what it's like to be expecting a girl ! I know it might be hard for you but the last time I remember watching Weston talk about her was in the Gender Reveal vlog. It's been really long. If you could please give it a thought. Love from India
Hello Natalie, im 32 weeks preggers with a boy first pregnancy and bursting already. I had to have an extra scan this week as my tummy was measuring over as they said but baby checked and everything is okay. My next midwife appointment will be in two weeks time as i am low risk, i will also need to be doing my 34 weeks blood soon too which im dreading. Just wanted to know do you feel a big difference from being pregnant with boys and to this pregnancy with a girl?
I'm turning 32 on Saturday which is exciting but then I have other two girls that I rain around after which makes me tired so ur not along with ur going thought.
Nisha Sharma I had an epidural line placed in but there was no medication until we decided to proceed with the c-section for the 2nd baby. The first birth was drug free!
Are you biting your fingernails? im always reacting like that if im stressed out or nervous. i hope everything goes well and you feel better soon đ greetings from Germany:)
This is what my description box says, but I'm also going to pin a comment so no one is confused: note: This update was filmed when I turned 32 weeks pregnant. This was BEFORE my hospital visit with pre-term labor. That experience will be in next week's update. As I've explained before, I purposely release my pregnancy updates the following week to give me time to shoot, edit and upload them consistently for you all. Love you all!!!!
Natalie Bennett awah ur such a gem! love you keep up the good work ur editing is SO Good and I hope ur days are filled with less stress! ur boys are the cutest by the way and I'm sure ur daughter will be too! xD im5w3d pregnant today. talking about a long wait xD
Hawaiian Punch I had an epidural line placed in case I needed medical intervention such as a c-section. There was no epidural medication during my birth with Liam but once they decided to do a c-section for Judah they started the putting meds in the line.

I have followed you since you announced your pregnancy with the twins. Since then, I finally had a little girl of my own (after trying for 2 years).

I needed those words this week. I'm so tired of being pregnant đ but thank you!!!
Watching this 2 years after you posted! Thanks for the encouragement...I'm also feeling tired and emotional at 32 weeks! X
Me too! 32 weeks and exhausted!
Huh ...tiredness ....so true
My wife too! and the boody hormones! but just keep thinking about skin to skin and having that little one on your chest!
my back loves when i lay on my back too! but yes the babies go wild when i do. I try not to stay there for too long, but it does bring relief on those sore spinal discs and muscles!
bless u Natalie. we sure know that you're so genuine and sweet in your videos you don't need to justify. we absolutely love watching your vlogs n keep praying for you n your baby. đ

Thank you!
you are always so positive, i have no idea how you do it. i saw a rude comment and you responded so nicely. i don't know how you do it!

I just had twin girls two months ago, let me tell you, you're realness is so helpful for me, most twin moms don't say it's hard.
Thank you for the encouragement!! I've been in and out of labour and am now only 30 weeks and know she's safer in there than out but at the same time I'm so done with the roller coaster of up and down that I want it to be done and just have her here and safe. Thank you again!! Needed it after spending the day in the hospital đ
I just want to say I'm so glad I happened upon your channel. You are such a positive light! Don't let any negativity dampen your spirit. Also, I have a 17 MO daughter -- little girls are soo much fun, you will love having a baby girl. And... I'm 11 weeks with #2, here I go again!
32 weeks with my 6th baby and 8 in my heart
Thanks for the encouragement! I'm actually just exiting my first trimester, but my first born went to 42 weeks, so this still feels like it applies (both present and past!). It's also nice to hear that you have tough days, too. (Not that I want you to feel bad, but it's nice for the sake of perspective...).
I'm also going for a natural vbac, so I'm definitely cheering you on!!
Iâm at 32 weeks pregnant today, and I totally relate with you about the hormones and the baby movement! Thank you for keeping these videos in a playlist for us new mamas :)
I love watching your updates on baby girl! I kept track when you were pregnant with your boys--so much fun seeing the changes!
When I was pregnant with my son--who is now 5 months old--my last trimester lasted for what it seemed like forever...had him at 38w5d pregnant. I love my Maverick so very much!
Fellow twin boy mama here! My little goobers came unexpectedly at 32 weeks, and you're totally right...it's so much better to keep 'em cooking if possible! I was so lucky that we actually had very limited health issues considering my boys had twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome - one babe needed a transfusion, but other than that, they only were on oxygen for one day, and just had to be in the NICU to grow and learn to eat. We were there for 5 weeks and it definitely would have been easier to just be pregnant for those 5 weeks but we were so thankful they were as healthy as they were, and that the nurses were so incredible!
I'm really happy for your family! You really show me the beauties of pregnancy, childbirth, and parenting. God really blesses you with so many great talents. Thanks for your teachings. God bless.
I'm 27 weeks pregnant and kind of frustrated because my case is so complicated! I am getting chemotherapy treatment as I found out I have breast cancer at 15 weeks. Thankfully Bub is growing normally and hasn't had any adverse effects from the drugs. The doctors are still confused about when to induce me, and they were thinking I might have to have my baby at 36 weeks, but I wish I could go longer. I love watching your updates though! It's great to keep up with your experience.
Allison Maxwell oh my gosh that must be so hard for you to deal with, i am so sorry for you. i hope everything goes well for you â€ïž
Allison Maxwell oh my goodness! What a tough situation. You and your sweet baby are in my prayers.
I totally get it I really do I have 4 children and terrible 2s isn't easy and your dealing with 2 plus ur gonna need to heal and rest after you have your baby but its a lot harder when there's a newborn on top of the boys . I just know youll do just fine and adjust to a routine and I think you'll do just fine . All happiness and the best to u and the rest. That's why I watch you cause your such a pure hearted person
I'm 23 weeks tomorrow and this is my first pregnancy. I feel like so many people try to get labor going before its intended and necessary. I know being in the 3rd trimester will not be the most fun experience to have in hot weather but I wouldn't have it any other way. I just started to watch your videos and I love your personality! I pray I will make it to 40 weeks, due July 3rd with a baby boy :)
I love how real you are discussing this. I'll be honest, I've thought the same thinking, if I had mastitis I don't know if I could smile while talking about it! But what you said makes a lot of sense and it's nice to know you're like the rest of us :)
I just commented this on another video but with A growing channel comes more and more opportunities for negative people and comments. I hate that it is that way because is loyal viewers "know" you and love your positive attitude/personalityâ€ïž
It always baffles me that people on CZcams are not allowed to look awesome and be positive! Haha it's like a "no no" in the CZcams worldâșïžâșïž.
Love your videos!
These updates are so helpful for first time moms like me...i know what to expect next week...even though every pregnancy is different but still helps alooooooooot. Thankyou natalie â€ïž
I'm one week behind you in my pregnancy and I TOTALLY understand what you mean! Some people don't realize that these videos are just a small moment of your day and pregnancy while chasing small ones around all day is exhausting! Most days I'm lucky to do my hair right now đ
You are glowing Natalie!! So very excited for baby girl to arrive đ My older sister is due March 25th with her second boy!!! I'm too excited for him to arrive as well and that will be my 7th nephew, from all of my other siblings' children as well! And I've just been waiting for a little niece for the longest now but that's okay, it will be great to see your baby girl grow!! I am so happy for you all!
Also my sister is also planning on a vbac! So hopefully everything works out for you all as well!
Aww... Natalie, you look lovely as ever. I don't think you should be made to feel like you need to explain being happy and joyful. Having joy, even in the difficult times, is a fruit of the spirit. Not to mention, you are carrying beautiful and precious life in you. I am just about 32 weeks pregnant now and I am feeling exhausted also. It could be that my husband and I are moving into a new and beautiful house from our apartment. Even though I am not doing much I still feel exhausted going back and forth. I also have been having some painful contractions. It may be because I am a little dehydrated. I was woken up in the middle of the night last night with them. Turning on my right side helped to make them stop though. I don't know why that is, do you? I want her to stay in there as long as possible but there is also a part of me that is inpatient to meet her. Thank you for the encouragement! Lovely video as always! :-)
I love the message you give to all your pregnant viewers, love your videos, I always watch them đ
I wish you'd show more of the hard moments!! I feel like not enough people are genuine in that way on CZcams. Or even talk about them more in Vlogs/updates like these!
I have a feeling you will have an Easter baby! All the best to you and your family.
That's the feeling I have too!!!
I am 32 weeks and also overly tired, I feel not sad but just unmotivated to do anything fast pace or that takes a lot of energy. God bless I don't have a single stretch mark on my stomach or back of hips, BUT I have them all over my butt and side of butt/upper thighs! My baby was also head down at my 30 week appointment,
Natalie thank you so much for the advice and encouragement!! I am struggling with impatience already at just 22 weeks! I was worried that is would just continue to get worse but the reminder really helps! :)
25 weeks and I feel like my whole body is just 1 giant stretch mark lol
Tell me about it. I'm 31 weeks and by this point I just want to be on bed or I'll fall asleep anywhere. Unfortunately I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and I have to be active and monitoring my glucose levels. I definitely feel moody, emotional and very sensitive about everything. I'm just learning to deal with it and trying to be relax.
So I understand you Natalie. We're almost there! Your videos give me strength and guide.
Im almost 34 weeks!
Im due 2 days before you so we might have little birthday buddies!
Im having a little baby boy and my symptoms this week have been swollen hands and feet and a really sore back! Also i am extremely exhausted!!
We are naming him Kody! I absolutely love that name and already it suits him!
He is a very active little fella!
And ive also been through pre term labour at 30 weeks!
Was the scariest thing in the world!
Was getting very strong consistent contractions and we were all ready fir me to give birth,
So i got in the birthing pool so i can get some pain relief and get ready for a water birth and within 5 mins the contractions completely stopped out of nowhere!
Im so blessed that this baby wants to bake for a little bit longer!
Im now on strict bed rest so all ive been doing really is baby shopping online! Hehe!
Im from Australia and it is super hot! Its been up to 45 degrees celsius and i feel like i an going to melt!
Its been very hard to stay on bed rest so ive been getting in the pool trying to get some mild exercise by just floating around and its been great!
Im also really wanting to start doing my own Mummy and Makeup vlogs after baby is born but i dont exactly know which camera to get and how to edit the videos but if i do end up getting all set up id love for you to suscribe to my channel!
Also sorry for this huge comment but i have one more thing.
You are so inspirational to me and your positive vlogs from your other channel has really helped me some days! So thankyou so much for that!
Oh and by the way, you are so pretty!!
Xoxo
Charliee Belle i love this comment. Good luck! X
Jade Morgan thankyou xox
Can't wait to see baby girl! My stepmom is also having a baby girl that is due right around when your baby is. So, I'm super excited. đ
So exciting! It will be so fun to experience having a little sibling. I love being MUCH older than my younger brother. We have a very special bond as a result.
My son turns 2 at the end of April...and I am currently 35 weeks pregnant with another baby boy. I have a c-section scheduled for March 31st. My OB wanted me to do a vbac. At my 20 week anatomy scan we found out that this baby has a 2 vessel umbilical cord. My first also had a 2 vessel umbilical cord. So since one of the vessels are missing there is a risk of the vessel that's working twice as hard giving out. If that happens my son could die before he's even born. Needless to say the closer we get to my due date, the more dangerous it gets. That's why my husband and I are choosing to do another c-section.
Thank you so much for the encouragement re patience to wait for baby to be ready to arrive - I'm in my third trimester and phew!
Still crazy to me that you went through TWO completely different types of births in one day! Strong mama!
didn't even realize your due date is around easter! an easter baby would be so cool!
Thank you for that! Not that I want my daughter to be born early, but I did tell my husband last night I was done being pregnant! I'm 32 weeks as well :) (as of tomorrow) I look forward to your video's every week!
god bless u an ur babygirlđ we are both 32weeks pregoâșam so happie wen i see ur vlog pop upâșđđ
and we are also having a girlđđâș
Can't wait to see the baby girl today
You look stunning in so glad baby girl is still in cookinđ I totally get the days your grumpy a mom and pregnant I have them as I have a almost 4 year old son and I'm 20 weeks pregnant. I have days when I don't want to talk to anyone and don't want to leave the house. But I also have days where I put make up in get dressed and drag my butt out of the house and do my mommy/wife duties. Bless you Natalie
Absolutely loved this weeks video!
thank you! this video was just what I needed today...32weeks and very tired...
I'm so glad you two are okay! My birthday is April 24th and I only know one person who has that birthday. So I wonder if you'll have her on my birthday!! You're such high spirit! You're always so happy in your videos and that is one of the things I love about you! It makes my day better.
That's my brother Luke's birthday and she could very well hold on until then! I'd be thrilled if she shared a special day with my brother. đ
I am gland you are doing well and baby girl is growing! :-)
I have that same scarf and I love it! It's one of my favorites! It's so soft! :-)
Looking forward to the next update!
Love your encouragement to us pregnant women
As tired as you may be, you look beautiful!
Hello Natalie! I have been a subscriber since your pregnancy with your boys and I love your Chanel so much! I am always making sure to watch your new videos! You have such a cute little family. I am currently pregnant with my first! I am due June 1st with a baby girl and I am beyond excited to experience motherhood! I also cant wait to see video of your girl and also the twins getting her. How do you feel about them meeting her for the first time? I think they will be such great big brothers! I hope your little one stays cooking in your belly a little longer and when the time comes you have a safe, smooth labor & delivery!
I had my baby girl on the 2nd and I'm over the moon
I loved the bit of encouragement! I needed it lol!
They want your channel for a few months that we were blessing you, Natalie.
My mom had my twin brother and I about a month early because we were doing something to her bloodstream and then had my little sister in a vbac two years later and said the vbac was so much easier to recover from, so I hope you can have the type of birth with baby girl!
That type of birth if you want to*
All the best to youâ€
greetings from Germany đ
Aww Haha I find that when I lay on my right side my baby goes crazy just as you explained. makes it hard to sleep
I needed that encouragement †thank you
You and I are only like a couple days apart :-) or maybe a week. either way I love listening to you and your symptoms; our pregnancy has been a lot alike, in fact the day you went to the hospital I went to the doctors because of my contractions. plus we both live in the same state. anyhow can't wait to watch your week 33 video I have been keeping an eye out
you look radiant for a super mama , thanks for sharing
This is so awesome!
I just noticed my cousins due date is a day before yours she has a 3 year old s old son and is having a girl April 18th
Hi natalie, I.m 31weeks and 4 days. I.m starting to suffer from lower back pain. Would you have any tips on how to help this. Thank you
Speak to your midwife. . .
Hey Natalie...Hope you're doing amazing ! I don't know why but I really want to see you and Weston sit down and talk about the baby and what it's like to be expecting a girl ! I know it might be hard for you but the last time I remember watching Weston talk about her was in the Gender Reveal vlog. It's been really long. If you could please give it a thought.
Love from India
Thank you so much for your encouragement! It really spoke to me, this is my first pregnanc and it hasnt been easy, so thank you!
Thanks for encouragement :-* I needed it ;-)
I've been feeling sick and tired this week, too. 32 weeks, FTM. đ«
Hello Natalie, im 32 weeks preggers with a boy first pregnancy and bursting already. I had to have an extra scan this week as my tummy was measuring over as they said but baby checked and everything is okay. My next midwife appointment will be in two weeks time as i am low risk, i will also need to be doing my 34 weeks blood soon too which im dreading. Just wanted to know do you feel a big difference from being pregnant with boys and to this pregnancy with a girl?
I'm turning 32 on Saturday which is exciting but then I have other two girls that I rain around after which makes me tired so ur not along with ur going thought.
32 weeks in 2 days âșïžđ with a boy.
I thought you had an epidural with the first twin? Awesome job if it was natural!!!
Nisha Sharma I had an epidural line placed in but there was no medication until we decided to proceed with the c-section for the 2nd baby. The first birth was drug free!
Natalie Bennett Superfrigginwoman!!!!!
my grandbaby was only 4 pounds she was very healthy got to go home.
Also, what is the lip color you are wearing!?
Like I said last time my Danielle was the same age as your boys are when I was prego with her baby sister so I know what you are going through,
Omg when i lay certain ways my baby gets mad too lol so i lay to make him comfortable lol.
Are you biting your fingernails? im always reacting like that if im stressed out or nervous.
i hope everything goes well and you feel better soon đ greetings from Germany:)
Iâm 32 weeks pregnant and weâre gonna name her Natalie.â€ïž
Melon not squash
why didn't u mention the preterm labor scare in this update?
vasilisa banks her updates are a week or so behind so it probably hadn't of happened at this point, it will be in the next pregnancy update no doubt x
cally jenner oh haha thank you (: I was just curious
vasilisa banks not a problem đ
This is what my description box says, but I'm also going to pin a comment so no one is confused:
note: This update was filmed when I turned 32 weeks pregnant. This was BEFORE my hospital visit with pre-term labor. That experience will be in next week's update. As I've explained before, I purposely release my pregnancy updates the following week to give me time to shoot, edit and upload them consistently for you all. Love you all!!!!
Natalie Bennett awah ur such a gem! love you keep up the good work ur editing is SO Good and I hope ur days are filled with less stress! ur boys are the cutest by the way and I'm sure ur daughter will be too! xD im5w3d pregnant today. talking about a long wait xD
Were you having a boy ?
A girl
@@misbahkhan9624 congratulations
I thought you had an epidural the first birth...
Hawaiian Punch I had an epidural line placed in case I needed medical intervention such as a c-section. There was no epidural medication during my birth with Liam but once they decided to do a c-section for Judah they started the putting meds in the line.
Natalie Bennett I see! Hoping baby girl comes as smoothly as brother Liam and you get anther natural birth!
