Today I was teaching dance and this little girl started cruing while her mom was in the bathroom. I put her on my hip to stop her from crying, and she stopped. When her mom came out, her face was like 😱. She said that the little girl never let anyone other than her parents hold her and I was the first stranger she had been OK with holding her. My self esteem skyrocketed 😂😉😘
Awww that is so adorable💕

When she sneezed 😭❤️ Too cute for my life 😫
Aria is genuinely one of the most beautiful baby girls I've ever seen ❤🎀 Congrats to you and your husband!
yes pls do talk about your recovery! it's really helpful to know more about these things
I love pregnancy, labor and delivery videos. I always love hearing how other's went through it all. I have 2 boys, my oldest had the longest but smooth delivery because of the epidural. As for my 2nd, quickest but most painful, all natural. Motherhood is amazing and I would never trade it for anything! ❤❤❤❤
Congrats Jen! I'm so glad that your birth was calm and that Aria arrived safe and sound! Loved following your journey--thanks for taking us along for the ride. Enjoy every single moment with her! They grow up so so fast! xo
I have no clue how you didn't cry while explaining everything, I was crying of pure joy 😭 this is such a beautiful video and following throughout your whole pregnancy was such a blessing. Thank you so much for sharing your whole experience and I wish your new family only the best! 💕💕
Jen, I'd love to hear about your recovery, and just more about your birth experience, and mom experiences. I'm not pregnant or married, but desire both in my life. 😊
thanks so much for sharing your story jen. honestly hearing stories about labour is so terrifying but as soon as you brought little aria out I can only imagine how worth it it all would have felt afterwards. she is absolutely precious!! congrats!!
I really loved hearing your birth story. So real! From one extreme to another. When each of mine were born it never ceased to amaze me what our wonderful female bodies are capable of. That, and the emotional (& hormonal) turmoil too.
Your little daughter is lovely - just like her mommy.
You are going to be great🍀
Aria is sooo adorable! Her smile lights up the room! Congratulations Jenn and thanks for sharing your story with us all!
This was so sweet to watch. Ive been following you for years and it's such a precious moment to see you grow and start a family of your own! Thank you for taking us on this personal and magical journey of yours!!! Love you!
You look so fucking beautiful, I don't know how you do it since you're now a new mom
Great video !
Congrats on your new family 👨👩👧
Thank you for sharing your personal story 💕
seeing how joyful you are around your daughter makes me so excited to be a parent in the future !!! 😊
Watching your video clip made me tear up a little because I can see how happy you are with your precious little bundle. And I will never experience that joy as I am unable to have children. Ugh, my apologies for sounding so down. Anyway, I just want to thank u, Jen, for sharing your labor and delivery experience with us. Congrats on your beautiful daughter! She's adorable. :)
Hugs
This is such a lovely comment :)
nothing is impossible to them that believe. i have heard miracles of women without any womb conceiving. God will make you laugh and surprise you with your bundle of joy:)
17:48 I had to replay that sneeze 😳☺️
squee it's so cute
My goodness that sneeze 😍
Loved hearing about your pregnancy journey. Really appreciate your honesty of what you went through. And CONGRATS! She's so adorable.
OMG I"M SUPER HAPPY FOR YOU! I remember watching you when i was in high school like 5 years ago. you we're like a big sister to me and now you're a mother!!!
so proud of you... I am a labor and delivery nurse in NYC. Glad that you pushed for only 45 minutes, you really let your body take control =) looking forward to hear your recovery story.
This video is so helpful and encouraging! I will be due in 2 months and was always scared... Thank you so much! Please share more mom/baby must haves and other videos.
Hi Jen, just watched your video. That was a long but wonderful delivery! You are amazing! Should be proud of yourself. Both mummy and daughter look beautiful! Can't wait to watch more of you both. May God bless you and your family. 😊
You are just so great. No one could ever be greater than a mother.
This video made me smile the whole time! I feel like I can relate to you in so many ways when I was pregnant and gave birth 2 years ago. I was only 4'9" and I had my son at 40 weeks. He was almost 41 weeks until I felt uncomfortable cramping, right away, I left to the hospital at 7 in the morning. But then! I had also ended up waiting the next day for him and he came out weighing 7 pounds and 8 ounces. Hehe.
She is so beautiful! Life is amazing! Congratulations to you and your significant other! Life as parents will be even more rewarding for the two of you!

Omg already two months!!! I'm so happy for you. Keeping you in my prayers!
Congrats Jen! So happy for you and your husband! Aria is so adorable! Can't wait to watch your recovery story video!
Just finished watching! Congratulations Jen! ❤️❤️❤️❤️I am overjoyed and I believe God was with you when you were trying to get Aria out. You are such a trooper!✨ I am so happy for you and your family too ❤️ God bless ❤️
Omg i almost cried when you were talking about it was a whirlwind, reminds me of how I felt too. She's such a cutie!!!! They grow so fast! Hope you're recovering well & enjoying motherhood!!
Congratulations Jen! I was watching your videos while I was pregnant with my daughter so she probably recognises your voice ☺ She's nearly 8 months and now you have your own little girl. We're going to enjoy watching you and Aria together. I picked a 'A' name for my daughter too!
I would love to hear about your recovery! it's encouraging hearing all the real stories. btw your baby looks beautiful xx
wow just wow! I never knew just how long and complicated the whole labour process can be!

Aria's little sneeze was SO CUTE!!! Congratulations Jen!!
Aria is so beautiful! Your story made me think about my own two births... my daughters are 1 & 5 now. Yay for wonderful baby girls! I am so glad you came through her birth smoothly. You are strong and amazing and a great mom!
my heart melted when she sneezed! bless you and your beautiful family
Jen, I just wanna say, thank you so much for being honest and sharing about your tear. I would really love to hear more about the recovery process. I think there's not many people out there who are willing to share the fears of childbirth and only focus on the joy of having a baby (which i am sure is definitely joyful) but I appreciate being giving the option to learn more about the entire process, good and bad :)
Congrats on the baby!
If you don't mind, can you please do a video on the tear/recovery/your experience? I know its a bit of a gross/taboo topic but it happens and not enough people talk about it. I would love to hear your story! Again, super happy for you and your family!
Thank you Jen for sharing your story! I was pregnant the same time as you and so it was fun to follow your journey along with mine! Congratulations!!! Can't wait to see more baby vlogs!!
Congratulations! Thank you for sharing your story with us! Labor is a pretty amazing experience! Glad you and Aria are doing well! Enjoy being a mommy! Time goes soooo fast!
It's crazy the different reactions to inducement. I was induced at 6:30 in the morning. Never got above a 2 on the pit because my contractions were so strong and back to back. I was fully dilated 4 hours later and 30 minutes of pushing and my little girl was here! I'm glad your delivery went well! Your baby is adorable!
aww how cute. and how beautifully she grew up! so big :) holding up her head already?! time flies~
I'm 6 weeks pregnant with my first baby and omg this was sooo helpful and I want to hear more about your recovery! I need to know all the squirmish things that most people don't talk about!
Congrats again!! Aria is adorable ü
You are such a positive and sweet young Mom.. It was really a joy to watch your video. Your Daughter is gorgeous. God Bless..
She is soooo cute!
Congratulations Jen and your beautiful Ari!!! It is so inspiring to hear your story from yourself, I really appreciate the way you sit down and genuinely talk to us about your delivery experience. Thank you so much for sharing and I wish you and your family all the best wishes xoxo
Big Baby Girl is very beautiful. Congratulations Jen
Aria is so adorable! Congrats! I've been following your channel for quite awhile but this is the first time watching your labor story. So very similar to my labor story. I had to be induced at 42 weeks. The induction process was long and slow. I wasn't making much progress from any methods used on me to get me to dilate (to the point I had asked for a c-section but was denied lol). But from the time I was ready to push it took about 45 minutes for babygirl to arrive. It was very calm and zen-like atmosphere too. My daughter is now 13 y/o so to hear your story just totally brought back memories 😊
"39 weeks came around, and I was like "baby could come at anytime" and then 40 weeks came around and I was like "baby can really come at anytime" then 41 weeks came around and baby had to be forcibly evicted." 😂😂😂
hoangnguyennnnnn lolol cuz 41 weeks is past her due date and placenta is calcifying and ageing plus baby is growing bigger inside
Haha when she sneezed I audibly said bless you 😂 she's beautiful! You're going to be a great mother 😊
Awww!!! That's so sweet!!! I really am glad that you guys both are healthy!!! ❤️❤️❤️
You and Aria look absolutely beautiful. You are glowing from happiness and healthiness. So happy for you Jenn :) xo
I would actually like to hear about the recovery process if you wouldn't mind sharing. Thanks for sharing your Labor and Delivery story! Aria is absolutely adorable! Congratulations to you both
Aria is absolutely beautiful. Loved your labour story. It sounds like you had a great experience. I had a great experience with my second baby earlier this year too. Hope to see more mom and baby videos soon xx
Jen - Congrats! You look great! My son had terrible reflux too. We bought the dex daydreamer and that saved us! I totally feel your pain about the recovery. I also had 2nd degree tear. When your eyes watered up I wanted to give you a hug. Mommies are sooo strong!
the highly anticipated vlog! congrats, jen!! aria is a beauty! i love hearing other mommy's labor & delivery stories and being able to relate to so much. i just delivered my baby boy 2 months ago. i was induced and i also heard to ask for the anesthesiologist early. nurses told me he would be available at 5:30 but he actually couldn't come to my rescue until 2+ hrs later. i'm 5'1" and delivered a 7lbs 15oz, 21 inch long baby boy. we are so in love :D
Awww! this is too much for me. I'm so happy when I see you so happy. Literally I wanna hug you! Aria is a beautiful girl. I hope you and all your family be healthy. Greetings from Costa Rica 😘💙
I'm 23 and no where near having kids, but my dream is to be a mom!! I loved hearing your story :) Thank you for sharing!
July 14th baby like me! Congratulations Jen! My daughter was 8.5 lbs and had a big head. The nurses actually told me my baby had a headache coming out because it was so hard for me to push her out. They had to use scissors on me in two places and I ripped. Recovery was super difficult for me. Your daughter is so adorable. Again congrats!
That adorable sneeze haha. CONGRATS she's beautiful ♥️
ohhh when she sneezed 😍congratulations on your beautiful baby girl! she's stunning.
Aww you are such a beautiful mommy! And Aria is so precious! Thank you for your story! Every birthing story is different- and it helps to hear yours
My son was also born on July 14, 2016 and i was also induced. I was induced because i had really high blood pressure (not like me to have high blood pressure) & they wanted to avoid pre eclampsia. Im so glad i found your channel. I subscribed ❤️
Such a beautiful baby. Congratulations to you and Ben.
I love to see your joy of your baby!! A literal baby! 👶 congrats!!! 🍾🎈🎊🎉
Aria is adorable and you look beautiful! And baby sneezes are the cutest :)
Congratulations. Aria is adorable. May God bless you and your family.
Congrats on your baby! She is so precious! And you look great too! ❤️😘
aawww 😍Aria sneezing is the cutest thing ever!
wow! Thank you so much for sharing this experience that's very personal to many. I've learned a lot here and was very inspired by your courage. Really happy that you made it! Love your story.
Best wishes.
So amazing seeing the final pregnancy video, she is so beautiful
Congrats Jen! I was a big baby but I'm 15 now and only 5'1" and 91 pounds. So it just goes to show that baby weight sometimes doesn't affect how big the baby gets later
so happy for you for you and your beautiful healthy girl! sorry that you had 2 tears, it must be so painful and tough to heal from, but you're stronger because of it! wish you and ben and aria all the best! xx
I love seeing both of you together! so much love! congratulations!
Congrats on your baby girl! She is so beautiful.
I went all natural, no medication with my son (only child), I was in labor for 20hrs and 7 minutes of that was pushing and he came out. I too was quite(the lady in the next room was so loud). call me crazy but I loved that pain. I also teared even though my son was 6lbs. All in all I'd do it all over again.
She's a natural in front of the camera! That was the cutest sneeze ever lol 😊
Baby Aria is so adorable ! Such a beautiful creation !
Youre so so amazing and i know youll be an awesome mother!
Thank you so much for sharing your labor story! I is so encouraging and informative for moms to be!
Shes gonna be a beaaautful girl!! Her eyes are so bright :)
Congratulations! Im such a creep I waved at my laptop when Aria looked through the camera AHAHA! She is so beautiful and looks so much like you! I'm so happy to be able to see your family grow! Thanks for the video really enjoyed it!
Beautiful story! My favorite video of yours. Congratulations! 💓
your snaps of her make my day she's so cute
Your baby girl is precious! What a roller coaster your body goes through right? Im just happy to hear that both you and baby are happy and healthy! 💗
Aww I'm 5 years late, but congrats!!
I'm so sorry about the tears. I've never had kids but I'm so appreciative of your straightforwardness and honesty. My mom still talks about the tears/cuts her doctor made. It was really traumatic for her ☹️
A beautiful labour story! Your little girl is beautiful. I had a 3rd degree tear due to my baby coming out with one hand on his cheek! The stitching up was worse pain than the giving birth! I almost blacked out at that point due to the fatigue and pain. But it was all worth it! My little boy has just turned 3.
Aria is just perfect!!! What a cute baby. Congratulations!
Aaww her sneeze at the end was so cute. she's so adorable! 😍😍😘
I know right! it was the cutest thing ever! ❤😍
when i was induced with my son, i dilated to a 10 in one hour and a half! however pushing was much more painful this time. this was my second child, with my daughter, i went into labor naturally and it was only 5 hours total. God bless you and your baby girl!!
what a beautiful daugther you have! And what a pretty name you gave her. Enjoy this wonderfull time with this little bundel of joy. loves
Haven't watched Jen for such a long time and I saw this on my recommendation section and I had to read twice omg. So fast time passes fast
It's soo greaaat to have you back!!! Congratulations Jen!!! I miss you
I feel like crying tears of joy... You're so beautiful!!! Praise the Lord for rather smooth delivery... You deserve a pat on the shoulder for sure, Jen!! And hello cutie Aria 😍
So, so glad everything turned out well for you and baby! Also, I'd really love to see that recovery process video. I'm many years away from having kids myself, but I love hearing about the whole process, especially when things don't go perfectly, since it probably won't be that way for me either.
She's so cute!! I kept my favorite headband from my girls so they could use it as a garter for their wedding. ❤️❤️
She is so beautiful!! Just like you :) glad your delivery went smoothly!
Your delivery was a blessing, you are so lucky.
YAAAAY! BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!!! LOVE YOU JEN! YOU'RE DAUGHTER IS BEAUTIFUL!
Glad to hear you had a calm labor! She's so adorable! 💖
Please do a video about your recovery. I'm expecting, due in March, and it's so nice to hear other first time moms' personal experiences. It helps ease some of my pre-birth anxieties!
Aria is a beautiful baby and you are a beautiful mom. Congrats !
Congrats!! She is so gorgeous. My delivery was so similar to yours except my water broke. I went to the hospital, had pitocin because I wasn't contracting and was in labor for 30 hours. The post-partum recovery was the hardest. But 18 months post partum it's hard to even believe I went through all of that. It's amazing how strong a woman's body is! Also, my son had terrible reflux until he was about 9 months but it does get better!
