- » Welcome to 24 hours with our newborn! Join me during my calm, slow & intentional postpartum self care routine.
I made a big effort to prioritize my wellbeing postpartum & I'm so glad I did because it's overall been a very positive and empowering experience. I spent a lot of time learning & preparing to set myself up for success and I'd like to share that process with you.
Linked below are some of the postpartum resources, reads, people to follow & products I loved and found useful.

HEY!! Please read the info box, I've linked so many postpartum resources & tools for YOU!!! 😊❤️
You are a godsend! Xo
Hehe all these kinks and I still have a question 🫠 I’m sorry!! Where’s your laundry hamper from?
@@lexusgabriela it was from Homesense! :)
@@stephaniekojec
..
@Karissa Pukas any chance you have a link to the mushroom and wild rice soup recipe! Looks and sounds so delicious!!
38 weeks and it's so nice to see that you can have a relaxing, healthy time during the newborn period. Everyone talks about how you never sleep, you'll be miserable, your marriage will be ruined, etc. But that doesn't have to be true!
It's hard when all you hear about parenthood are the scary potential 'what if's' right? Who wants to live in fear? It's not to say those things don't occur- but it's also not everyones experience. I think people need to let others have their own fresh experiences and not push their perspective on others. You don't know what it will be like until you're doing it- and even then- there's always choices / ways to make it work for you. Wishing you well with your birth and postpartum- YOU GOT THIS
For some cuples , kids are one of the reasons of disptings in marriage, one of the reasons you don't have any second for your self as a mom😔 especially when you have 2 or more kids . And nobody understands you, people say ,,you wanred kids, you got kids". This is like a pin in my heart and breaks my heart...we as moms are accused for we born babies 😮💨😔
Having a supporting partner and a supporting team definitely helps the process. Some moms dont have that and it makes the situation hard.
@@jessicaFtw 100000%. It takes a village.
Hey looping back. Hope all is well in your world💕💓
You two are rocking it. I'm not pregnant but if I'm ever blessed to be I will refer back to your recommendations. Goldie is absolutely precious and her name is such a match! I can't imagine your obsession 🥰
Thank you Tiffany
So perfectly filmed. I really understood what motherhood must feel like with a newborn. Beautifully captured. She's lucky to have you.
It is wonderful to have someone on your side to do this with, not every man is a responsible father as such. ❤️Calming to watch, know you are lucky
agreed...
This was one of the most accurate newborn routine I have ever seen! Goldie is adorable 🥰 And I smelled awful too postpartum 🙈 Nobody warned me about that!
Oh same! The weird hormonal BO and industrial amounts of sweat!? So bizarre 🤣
So much sweat. Always damp hahaha
@@KarissaPukas is it sweat, is it milk, who knows 😅 I was always damp and smelly. Now baby boy is 10 months old and eats: I'm sticky.
I read that the smell helps babies find your armpit area/boob for nursing: but I’m like why does it have to smell like Taco Bell and can’t I just smell strongly like an ice cream shop instead ????? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Really, baking cookies??
I'm envious at how high functioning you are at only 3 weeks PP! The first 4 months of both my postpartum experiences were an absolute blur of sleep deprivation, anxiety and feeling terrible physically and mentally. I didn't cook, barely cleaned, barely showered, I could only do things for my babies and had nothing left to give to myself or my home or my partner after that. But something about the 4 month mark I always start to feel like myself again and can function like a normal human. Idk why it goes like that for me.
Hey, everybody's hormones/body/ baby/ birth situation/sleep situation/ support etc etc etc is different. Your babies had YOU and that's what they needed
@@KarissaPukas That is so sweet and so true 😭❤
In truth it is like that for most people. Thank you for such an honest post, I am somewhat disturbed by the childless women swooning over such a perfect day. It is a perfect day!! In an alternate universe though, try getting through a day where you've crawled exhausted out of bed after a brutally broken night with your third baby to discover you've bled and leaked everywhere, your screaming baby has poo up to her shoulder blades and the cat has just vomited in the bathroom.
I am torn between admiring a lovely mother who is clearly doing wonderfully well and concern over expediting the myth of effortless perfect and guilt free motherhood.
Also what store did that husband come from 😄
Every day is different, but this was a pretty average day for us. There's no lack of poo explosions when your baby poops like 6+ times a day lol. I didn't bleed everywhere because I wear the period undies I show in the video. Obviously our day would look different with subsequent children- but that's not our reality :)
Motherhood isn't perfect, but no one is setting any standard except the one you set for yourself ya know? I do believe in a guilt free motherhood. I refuse to be guilty for meeting my own needs :) Motherhood doesn't need to come with guilt.
Thanks for watching
@@KarissaPukas what's the name of the period undies?
Your environment is very organized.. clean and refreshing.. perfect for a new baby and new parents.. I see even your little dog receives love all the time.. you are both embracing your new baby.. such a wonderful video... I escaped the world for a few minutes.. thank you!!!!
It is so nice to see a full daily routine with a new born. As someone who does not have kids it helps to understand what new moms are going through. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks :) Everybody is so different too! My best friend had her son two weeks after I had Goldie, and he was a 4/ 5+ times a night waker. Everyone has something going on. I have a lot more compassion for parents that's for sure!
@@KarissaPukas Goldie is soo pretty adorable and fresh baby....share her more vedios
Totally relate to the post partum BO.. and the constant breathing checking 😂
Lola licking Goldie's ear during her tummy time was so sweet 😍
My little one is 8months tomorrow and I can't believe how quickly it's gone, watching this video has me reminiscing over those early days of having a tiny beautiful new baby 😍
Try Lume deodorant . It was a game changer for my sister after having her baby and dealing with the hormonal bo
This was so beautifully captured Karissa... I'm sure a memory for you as much as a joy for us to watch
Thank you!! It's so fun to have. Editing it, we couldn't believe how much she's grown and changed since this stage. It's incredible really. Appreciate the comment
I love how you and your husband are such a team! It doesn't always go like that. You guys are rocking it!😍 Also baby girl is so adorable.👼 Even though the newborn days were very hard for me I miss them. Every moment goes by so fast.⭐
I'm so happy that postpartum (and breastfeeding!) went relatively smoothly for you! I had the opposite experience and it's so nice that you didn't have to experience what I did.
Sending you love
"omg I can't believe I made her" is the sweetest line 🥰
I do not have babies nor will I ever be able to have my own, and I LOVED watching this. You’ve grown into such a beautiful woman. I’ve been watching you for longer than I remember! You are going to be the best mama ever. Goldie is adorable and a very blessed little one to be in such good care with you and Glen and Lola. I’d like to take a second to acknowledge the enormous effort you put into the description box. That’s hours of research for a new parent to find! 😍
I always appreciate your comments
Goldie is absolutely adorable! It's great to see you taking care of yourself so you can be at your best to take care of your baby. You and Glenn are doing a great job!
I love how organized everything is, the color theme, the decorations, the baby’s room 🥺😍
Meditating with Dad is about the most precious thing I've ever seen 💛
Beautiful video! On one hand you and Glen made this all looks so easy and fun and on the other hand I just fully realized through your video that caring for your newborn is a full time job! You guys are a great team. Thank you for putting all your tips and resources in the info box! 💕
This filled my heart with such gentle joy. Blessings upon blessings to your beautiful family, dearest Karissa! 💜🦋
Currently watching this with my 3 week old & my heart is so full. 🥰 thank you for capturing such an awesome video & always keeping it real 💖
Congratulations
Would love to see a more detailed video on your night routine as family and/or tips for creating a calm/serene environment ♡♡♡♡
Thank you for sharing these previous moments with us! It's so nice to see a couple with a similar lifestyle to mine experiencing this!
Soooo sweet!! I remember these breastfeeding days like they were yesterday. It is DEFINITELY a full time job! I did this almost 10/11 months for both of my kids and while working outside the home full time. Very hard but totally worth it. Goldie is so adorable and so tiny!!! I love it! So so cute and precious. I loved this video
Beautiful home, beautiful parents and super beautiful baby! Thank you so much for sharing 🤩🤩🤩
What a wonderful video! Congratulations! Goldie is beautiful! Warms my heart to see you so happy and fulfilled! Lola is such a sweetheart, how precious. I'm sure you will treasure this video always.
Beautiful video, brought me back to the time when I had babies at home, now mine are 7 and 11🌸❤️ love the relaxing vibe and routines !!
Super organizados.
Y el niño siempre tranquilo, con sus rutinas muy bien distribuidas.
Mi experiencia me dice que lo están haciendo mb.
Me encanta!
Such a sweet and informative day in the life! You all are doing great, such a beautiful family❤
Beautiful video! Blessed with a chill baby and 2 parents at home full time.
This was so beautiful to watch, love you and your family!!
Tolle kleine Familie,mit dem süssen Hund und das Baby einfach toll!!!!🤩🤩🤩❤❤Mensch und Tier mein Herz geht auf ❤
So joyful to see my stranger friends as parents 😊 🌈
You have a great routine. Glen is such a helpful Daddy. You guys are such a cute little family. 🥰❤️
Lol watching this while doing my own tummy time. It’s a disability thing but I find it funny twinning. Love all the parent/baby content, it gives my heart hope for the future. Always makes my day seeing Goldie
Oh this brought back many memories!
Thank you for sharing with us!
Thank you for this video! I'm 31 weeks pregnant and I feel so much more relaxed and excited about postpartum life because of you :) I hope I'll be as calm as you two are! :D
😇😇
Love this video! I’m becoming a nanny for a newborn soon so I’m just generally curious on the typical routine. I also loved the dog playing in the laundry basket during the video. Children and pets are so good at reminding us to appreciate the little things in life.
Great job mom and dad especially the team work very zen and calm
Wow this video was so comforting, cozy and just lovely!🥰
I love the way you narrate. Beautiful video. Wishing you and your family the absolute best! ❤️
This is so beautiful! Congrats to you both for creating such a beautiful little human ♥️
I loved this so much! So many wonderful resources and tips. I also just sobbed my eyes out watching you feed and care so sweetly for your baby girl. Lots of love your way, mama.
Thanks Alexandra 💖
Inflation has me looking at your house, gadgets, and ingredients in awe. You ha e such a chill baby! So beautiful!
She is/was such a chill baby, we're very lucky. We definitely prioritize being comfortable at home over other things! We don't travel anymore & we just have one vehicle etc as I work from home. You def can't have it all these days lol. Thanks for watching
The sweetest ❤️ Baby stretches are the yummiest. Thank you for sharing
I’m loving this routine. Goldie is sweet baby ❤️
I looove watching these types of videos now that I'm close to my due date. I just cant wait to hold her!!
Love how everything flows so well congrats on your baby and sweet dog 🐶🐶
I am 17 weeks which feels like I have so much time left before baby is here but this got me so so excited !:) you and glen are a wonderful team
Oooh the happy face of the baby because its in company of mommy and daddy is just everything I needed todau
I am still in my early weeks but watching your videos is so relaxing and inspiring for me, thank you for all the info and sharing such a special time with us
I’m so happy for you! ❤️
Really loved this video !
This was so sweet ❤️. Thanks for sharing!
Gosh this looks so relaxing! I'm pregnant with number 2 and the postpartum time I had with number 1 was definitely harder than this appears, in many different ways. To actually have time for red light therapy is a real luxury. Great for you that you have that though. And I can't believe she only woke up once in the night!!! My daughter wouldn't sleep unless she was on someone for the first 7 weeks, so we were doing lonely night shifts for that period, until she started to accept being put down for a bit. And then she would want a feed 3 times a night. So it's great to see such a good start to parent life here and that you're enjoying your beautiful daughter, but for anyone else, please don't feel discouraged if your experience doesn't look like this ❤️ Every experience is unique xxx
this video was so peaceful. thank you! i knew i was stressed from the day, but it wasn't until i felt all the tension melting that i realized how tense I was.
What a beautiful day! My girl is 2 1/2 months old and she still wakes multiple times in a night, so it’s great to see Goldie only waking once or twice! She’s such a lovely baby. Our girl only recently became happy or calm while she was awake. Before, if she was awake, she would cry and cry and cry, we could never do tummy time or reading because she was just miserable the whole time. But we are slowly getting into a routine where we notice her wake windows and sleep signals and try to spend as much time during her wake windows playing with her, reading to her and getting her on the floor for tummy time. Goldie is beautiful and I’m so happy for you guys!
That's really tough Ashley, no sleep sucksss! I'm glad to hear you guys are finding a routine that works tho. It's hard sometimes hey - but it's wild how fast things change too. Lots of love to you and congratulations on your sweet girl
This was beautiful, thank you.
Best CZcamsr Award!! Lol thank you for all the links and descriptions below. So helpful
I love this. I'm due in October so always looking for ideas on routines and products 💞💞
Beautiful video! Your family is blessed 🤍
This was amazing!!!! Like watching a good show I wanted more!!
Thank you for doing this!
Loved it. So happy with videos like these. Thanks!
Love the mushroom 🍄 decor in the nursery so cool!
This video was so beautiful thank you for sharing it the pospartum routine 🥰🥰
Hi Karissa, this is a great vlog. Little Goldie is beautiful 💗 I too, drink Earl Grey tea ☕️ delicious. Xxx
So lovely of you to share 🧡
Amazing video. Congrats again!
I love your voice over and editing skills 😊
🥰 she’s lovely blessings to you and your family! I’m here on my 37+3 days pregnant and can’t wait to finally meet my baby girl 😍
Such a lovely video!!
OMG Lola is just the BEST!! 💝
She is the kindest, sweetest and genuinely most caring little personality. We are so lucky to have her
You guys are doing well.You make everything go so smoothly . My daughter just gave birth too and I know from first hand .It not easy. Well done guys and on a great job!
Celebrating 3 weeks with my baby 🥰 Awesome video
This is very relatable and Goldie is the cutest! After birth I found myself losing a lot of hair and the experience was miserable and I'm sure a lot of people here can relate. Tried a lot of hair supplements and the only one that worked is baby blues hair vitamins, it was a life-changer!
This was so beautifully done! You are so blessed with such an angel baby. My boys were no way this easy. Full of colic and reflux and sleeping issues. I wish my newborn days were like yours. I almost cried a few times watching this just how beautiful your little family is and how precious that baby girl is. I’m so happy for you 💖
I think most newborns aren't like this. I just hope this video doesn't create an unrealistic picture of what life is like with a newborn. My daughter woke up every 45 minutes for a long time and i had trouble breastfeeding which a lot of people do.
Shes lucky to have it so easy and hope it lasts for her.
Hey Kirsty! As I know you know, every experience is different. It's impossible (and not at all realistic) for one person to capture a multitude of experiences and showcase them. As it's my channel sharing my life and our experience, people should take it for just that. OUR experience. Some people will resonate with it, some wont :) It's not up to me to represent a reality that isn't mine ya know? Thanks for watching xx
Congratulations🥰 keep up the great team work 🙌
This is so beautiful and strangely so soothing and calming to me
So realistic thank you for showing
I absolutely loved this! My little guy is 17 months but this brought me right back. You captured the chaos in such a peaceful way♥️
Hey, can you help me if you have used children's clothes that you don't want to send to me, my children?
😇😇😇😇
Great vid .. I’m 51 with no kids and enjoyed it! You seem to be chill and doing a great calm job! Keep up the great work xo
My son slept in our bedroom in his snoo for 5 months. When it was time to transition him from our room to his and from snoo to crib, we just followed the snoo’s weaning directions for about a week. Then put him into his own room and crib and had no issues. My son is now 15 months and sleeps from 7:30 p.m to 8:30 a.m every day and still takes 2 (2 hour) naps 🙌🏽
That sounds great ✨💓👌🏼 We waited until about 6M with Goldie 🥰 I tried the weaning feature for a few nights but we found it no different so didn’t continue to bother. She’s been in her crib overnight for the past month and a half and 12 hour sleeps, we’re really lucky!
I'm so jealous. My 12 month old was / is such a rough baby. I can't imagine that schedule.
Really enjoyed watching.
Congratulations! Goldie is gorgeous just like her mom and dad.
She's gorgeous, congrats!
beautiful family. You are so blessed
Aww man she has changed so much already!!
Be thankful there are many new mom's out there that don't have this sense of ease and everything at their disposal, I was one of them 22 year's ago, my husband and I had no support and we definitely did not have such a nice place to raise our child in, remember that always.
I don't take my life for granted. Thanks for watching
What a precious baby girl. 💓
so inspiring
This was very comfortable to watch. I learned so much, although i am not pregnant but will probably be a mom one time in the future :) Congrats on your beautiful baby🥰
Great to watch. My BO & a super oily scalp took months to get under control. I honestly just think my body hormones needed time to recover, not necessarily products that worked better 💛Sending love!
This was so cute, and reassuring to a soon to be mama in her 33rd week of pregnancy 🙏🏻💗
You got this 💗 Wishing you well mama
Oh my I'm 7 months pregnant with my first child and I cannot wait to be a new mom, this made me cry. Thanks for sharing ❤️
This was so fun to watch! What a lovely family 😍🥰🥰
Yes
Lola is so sweet!!!
This was so nice to watch. You are incredibly lucky. After giving birth I could not get out of bed for about a month or so. Max was to sit up and eat or take a shower. It’s amazing to see how much you can move around and do during the day. Having 1-2 feeds per night seems to be amazing… good job!
Every experience is different hey
Waouh quel super papa, impliqué et investi. Il a de la chance ce petit bébé 😊
Vous semblez être une super team 👍👍
J'adore la méditation papa/bébé 🤗🤗
Merci Nini!
I got this vedio randomly,and ended up watching whole you guys are so positive
Keep it up and blessings to your cute daughter 💕
This was so pleasant to watch
