- A Day in My Life As A New Mom (3 Month Baby Routine) | Vlog
Please SUBSCRIBE here! bit.ly/2de1gQj
It's been a while since i've done a day in my life! Here's a glimpse into my routine as a new mom to my 3.5 month year old son, Levi (we've had pretty much the same routine since he was 2 months).
Previous Vlog: • I don't feel like Myse...

![[신태용인터뷰] "이런 말 해도 될 지 모르겠지만..마지막 꿈은 한국 대표팀 복귀" Wawancara Shin Tae-yong (STY) dengan pers Korea](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Yxc4dHQW7T0/mqdefault.jpg)
Taylor, I can tell from this video alone that you’re putting a lot of effort and hard work into becoming the best mother and wife you could be. I wish you and your family an outpour of endless blessings.
I don't have much to add to this lovely sentiment above but to say I'm so happy for you and your son is so adorable. Love from your hometown ;)
Sa ß
So sweet
youtube.com/@mohsinayub6361
im someone that sees pregnancy and motherhood as extremely tiring and something I can never take on myself but watching you do it makes me happy knowing there are others like you strong enough to do all this and happy to take it on. the effort you put in to caring for him is amazing to see and ik he's gonna grow up a lovely little gentleman with all the luv and care he receives. love n blessings baby
I'm the exact same way. Although this may also have to do with the fact that I have a lot of health issues, and I'm having to stay with my parents again for help. I think in general I still just can't picture myself being a mom, but then I think of the future when I'm a lot older. I wonder then if I'd be lonely and feel a bit empty at that point if I didn't have a child. Being a woman is hard lol.
just about to comment this same thing. she’s an amazing mom and you just visually see how happy she is and how much love there is. knowing the full journey makes it even sweeter to watch ❤️
It is tiring, but what in life is not? Going to school, working, trying to be productive in life is tiring but the thing is the change that mindset. Like trying something new, it always scary to try something new or different. It takes practice and time to learn.
Stop thinking you can’t and think you can. Yes some days it’s tough some days are not it’s the same with being a mom. It just another added responsibility as a adult. I have 2 kids and pregnant with baby #3. I never thought about how hard it would be having kids, I always children.
If you aren’t ready yes please don’t have kids till your ready, but also please don’t feel scared and feel like you can’t do it other wise this is how you will feel your whole life with everything new.
@@morganmariex It's like I was reading my own comment. I'm in the exact same situation. I think pregnancy + motherhood would push me past my breaking point honestly..
@@ayasinx8797 I think because she initially REALLY wanted a baby and so did tom and they had a pretty harsh IVF journey she may see things a bit differently and more in a "positive" light (: like all the things that would make us utterly insane she is taking with stride lol
These videos have been really healing for me in a weird way. I actually have no desire to be a mother right now but I lost my mom about 3 years ago to cancer and there is something about watching a mother love and care for her child so purely that is truly healing my soul ❤️ You are a Goddess and I admire every mother who is raising a child with so much love
Your mom loves you so much ! Stay healthy, that will be her number one wish. Good luck on your journey, and I hope that you have the most happiest life
My most heartfelt best wishes to you. Your Mother's spirit will always be with you. As will the love she had for you.
Same. My parent are alive but I feel like I dealt with what is termed "childhood emotional neglect" so often stuff like this is incredibly triggering for me. BUT - it's also helping me explore a different lens of motherhood and maybe can heal some things for me too.
As a kindergarten teacher, the amount of effort and energy put into the Elsa performance was a perfect 10/10! Great job mama you are such a natural ⭐️
Levi looks like the happiest little guy already and it’s easy to see why! I can feel so much love from you and Tom in these videos, you’re both doing such a great job already 🥹
My oldest had a “flat head” and I worried about it for 6 months until I looked at my husband’s head and it was just as flat and tall! Often it’s genetic but our heads are hidden by hair as grown ups.
You’re doing so so SO amazing! Lots of love.
This made me laugh 😂 so true! bless you and your family x
I asked our pediatrician if my daughter’s head shape “was normal” and the doctor responded, “well do you think your head shape is normal?“ I was like ‘very well then’ 😂
Guys the head shape is result of pressure on the head when the baby lies in the same position often. If she pays attention to lay the baby on its side, it will recover in a few months.
@@handesaydar7870 my son had flat head and even thought we did so much tummy time, it never corrected itself. We needed to get the helmet but it wasn’t so bad… he loved his helmet and he looked super cute in it. He only needed it for 2 months so it went by quickly. I highly recommend the helmet!
I had cranial osteopathy when I was a baby as I had a bad flat head after being induced for so long. It really helped me in the long run
SUCH A HANDSOME BABYYYY
ETA: as a pediatric therapist, I love how hands on you are with play even if he can’t actively participate 100% yet 🥰
Just curious but, should the mother be always hands on with the baby?
@@Moon_lulu The way Taylor actively plays with Levi is beneficial for so many reasons (secure bond, mental stimulation, cognitive growth, learning language and non verbal social cues are just some of the benefits.)
@@jamierobinson1496 Oooo thank you for taking the time to answer 🤍 Im really curious cause when I have my own baby in the future, I want to be a hands on mom like Taylor
@@Moon_lulu it’s really great that you are planning ahead and asking questions to prepare yourself to be the best mom when that time comes for you. I have an almost 15 year old daughter that was a 24 week preemie. Because of that I researched and practiced attachment parenting. I now have a very secure, healthy happy child. It’s quite similar to how Taylor parents from what I observed except most people who practice it do more co sleeping than what I observed. Now I see Taylor is baby wearing now and that is a huge part of attachment parenting. I think you’d be interested in reading up on it. To start I’d suggest The Attachment Parenting Book (that’s the title) by William and Martha Sears it’s on audible too if you would rather listen than read.
@@jamierobinson1496 Thank you! 🤍 and that's very nice that you have a secure, healthy happy child. I wanted the same for my kid in the future ☺️ And I will search and read that book, cause I'm very interested to know. But I appreciate you recommending to me a book, I bet it will be very helpful. Hope you have a good day ahead. 🤍
When Tom went to grab Rosie it was the most adorable thing ever! She gets so excited and incredibly happy to see the outdoors.
Can I please know the breed?
I also really want to know the breed!
@@risma9148 Rosie is a teacup poodle
It’s so cute how they can scoop her up in one hand! I wish I could hold my dog like that and cuddle him. My dog is like 4x the size of Rosie though and doesn’t even fit comfortably on my lap.
2 videos in one week?! 😍 Have an amazing day Taylor, Tom and Levi ❤️
As someone who’s never planning on having kids, watching your latest videos feels a little bit like living through motherhood through you but minus all the hardships. It’s generally just really calming and satisfying to watch your videos because they’re so raw and as real as KRplus content can get
Same for someone who loves babies but doesn’t want kids I love these videos
I don’t know what I want… I love babies to death and I could spend every single day of my life taking care of a baby from now (20) till the day I die and die happy. But this baby is real person, and this baby will grow up. And I don’t really love kids… just babies. But babies don’t stay babies forever, and I don’t want to end up being a bad mom and not giving my child the proper love and care they need. I don’t know, I want kids so bad but I don’t want to fuck them up like me.
You're doing great Taylor ❤️ One piece of advice, and every baby is different so this may not apply, but we try to have baby nap in non-quiet environments as well so that no matter where baby is, they don't need absolute silence for naps! Makes it easier as you and baby start to go out more!
My mother used to take us to church when we were babies and we'd sleep during choir rehearsal. I remember thinking when I got older how did we sleep thru that?!
@@jmason1770 haha your mom knew what she was doing! It's so common for first time moms to think silence is key, but it's the opposite, what a great memory!
Depends so much on the situation! Our baby was super sensitive to sounds as a baby, got better once he turned one. I kept getting the same advice and tried and tried, kept crying from exhaustion because people criticised me for being overly careful about sounds when my baby finally slept. So its not always a good idea! Whatever works, just go with what works and let's the mum sleep as well😅
@@Bunnybananabunny That is SO important to remember, every baby is different, and at the end of the day mom knows best, happy mom definitely equals happy baby! Sorry you had to go through that!
@@Bunnybananabunny Being a light or heavy sleeper is genetic! So it really does depend on the person. If you’re a light sleeper - silence or white noise is key!! I cannot sleep any other way while my sister is a heavy sleeper and will sleep through sirens going off. Our 23 and me results reflected that in our genes.
Levi is so sweet. I’m literally crying looking at this routine. My son is 10 weeks, but our life looks so much more messy because of the reflux and other stuff. Levi is lying there and playing, we don’t have any of that, my newborn cries or sleeps :( Lately also cries during feeding. Hope our life will look more like this routine some day.
Same! Watching her put lotion on her baby made me wish I could have that kind of moment. But my baby will always puke on the changing table or anytime she's mad 🤦♀️
@@jamiewatchesyoutube Oh I know that problem very well. Also my son has eczema and the cream I use is a steroid, that’s also stressing me out, no relaxing massages and happy vibes hah
To be honest I never thought looking at someones happy baby will make me so happy and so sad at the same time. I really hope things will get better for us all, „this too shall pass”, right? Looking at how fast newborns grow, I really think we should appreciate every day as it is. Not always so easy to do that tho :)
When my sister was born, she was exactly like that. I felt like she was crying all the time, especially at night. But after 12 weeks she miraculously stopped crying so much and got into a routine. I was 5 at the time but still remember pretty clear the amazing loud crying voice of my sister. Believe in yourself and don’t stress too much about not being in a consistent routine right away. I always have a huge respect for moms because communicating with a new born is never easy 😂 Wish you the best.
@@marcelal.8688 I was told by six months is should get easier. Which is atleast something to look forward to. I love my baby with all my heart but im going to definitely try to forget this time in our lives haha
My baby scratches herself during any changing.
My mother always said that as a baby the sleeping positions I would choose always made me look like I got shot. She would laugh her head off everytime she thought about it. I never understood what she meant by that until I saw your son during his first nap haha!
Wow, Taylor. I just finished watching your whole infertility series. To finally finish it and having a new vid as soon as I finish with you living the maternity life you always wanted is MAGICAL.
You being a mom makes me happier. Never have I EVER cheered so much for a person. All love in the world for your family!
You should get a white noise machine for Levi! You'll be able to move around the house freely without fear of waking him.
she has one
I usually see motherhood as something tiring and exhausting, but with seeing you now I understand why it makes you and other moms so happy. I loved it, thank you for sharing with us🤍
yeah that's because they are rich
@@series161 and their kid doesn't have colic or reflux etc and is a good night sleeper.
I can't wait to see how much more adorable Levi gets through the years. And trust me, the "years" will go by fast! I blinked and my daughter is already a senior in highschool.
I wish I knew earlier on about "brushing" the baby's gums and get him used to brushing. My son's first dentist visit, he pointed out that we needed to brush his teeth twice a day because there were signs of milk rot; it completely gutted us and shocked us. We're much better about brushing our son's teeth and are better educated. Carol did you guys good!!
Short naps are developmentally normal :) Don't stress about 20 - 30 minute naps. They will lengthen on their own around 5-6 months.
I'm dying of cuteness, this makes me want to be a mom so badly, you don't make motherhood feel suffocating in any way :)
I found baby wearing to be great for the not napping problem. My favorite was the Didymos wraps, especially their ring sling and the more sturdy baby carrier. They are gorgeous, breathable, and sturdy woven fabrics, especially their jacquard and linen fabrics. It took him a bit of time to get used to it and took me some time to learn how to wrap them (the baby carrier is easiest), but once we both got used to it, it made my life so, so, so much easier. I could do whatever I needed to do with both my hands, and he'd just hang out, and often fall asleep. You could make a whole video about baby wearing and wrapping.
I really liked that you talked about figuring out the "new you." My son is almost a year old and I had severe PPD/PPA...well, still have it. I think I am doing better at figuring out the "new me." But it's always comforting to hear that the transition isn't always seamless.
I love how much Levi interacts with the both of you. The excitement he has when he sees the both of you is apparent. And not doing everything you wanted to do is ok. It’s fine if you only brush your teeth or hair. Or just change your clothes. It’s ok. No one will be upset if you don’t get any of it done! For me it was always spending as much time with my boys when they were little.
They grow up and change so quickly, that every second matters. Before you know it, they’ll be all grown up. I have a 10 yr old and a 19 yr old. Both boys and I remember the day I brought both of them home. It’s amazing how quick it has gone by and I still see them as small tiny babies.
Enjoy it all, and don’t sweat the “small” stuff. There will be time for that. Each stage in Levi’s life will bring lots of love and adventure. You both deserve all the joy and blessings in the world! He such a cutie and reminds me of my kids. I’m sending your family lots of love! 💙
The 100% attention and care you give him is so touching to see. Levi is incredibly lucky to have you as his mom. It’s great to see you doing stuff you love for yourself as well I’m not a parent so I can’t even imagine how difficult it must be
Just a little tip for your breastfeeding in a sitting position: Use a pillow to rest the arm on that you are holding the baby''s head in. It will help you with your shoulder tension so much! The best are actual nursing pillows. I believe you even had one during pregnancy for comfort in bed.
Levi is such a happy baby! Growing so well within a loving family. I hope you, Tom, Levi, and Rosie are doing well and are enjoying parenthood!
I found you on tiktok when we were both pregnant at the same time, and my son is only 1 month older! I feel like I was watching a day in the life of me almost lol! Nap time is so sacred in my house too, and my son has the exact same two toys that he loves to play with 🥰
Congratulations from a fellow Canadian/new Mom ❤️
Congratulations on your new motherhood! It’s so cool to share this community with everyone as we all grow and change. 🥰
Levi is just about the cutest baby I've ever seen! You are doing so well, Taylor!
Seriously I was like OMG that baby (her baby respectfully) is so so so freakin cute!!!
Babies need to get used to usual sounds, I ran everything, after a short time it’s just white noise. Life is never silent, it will make every sound startling and scary..adorable family…blessed
But it I can’t sleep with a blender going 😆 I think moving the super loud machines away (his room is right next to the kitchen) is fair enough 🤷♀️
Love how you and Tom are enjoying being parents to Levi to the fullest.
Hahahaha you have to love when the husbands change diapers. Their reactions and sound effects are great. When I had my c-section with my first son he came out peeing and peed all over the doctor. His reaction was "Well he is a little pisser already". Levi is getting so big. He is adorable.
Aww loved seeing you caring for Levi. My kids are grown now, and I so miss looking after babies, so this is lovely to see 💕💕💕💕
Levi is the cutest thing I've ever seen!! His little face makes me so happy, you're doing amazing mama ❤️
We are really grateful that you are allowing us to follow your family’s new journey with Levi! Thank you for trusting your community enough to share these special moments and heartaches! Sending much love! ❤️
Seeing you with Levi after going through so much makes me so happy! I can tell that you cherish every second with him! Youre an awesome mom. Much love to you guys!
Levi is adorable! Taylor you’ve been glowing lately! It’s fun to see a glimpse into other people’s lives. I’ve been watching your channel for about five years now and I’m so proud of you how far you’ve come!
Ahhh he is so cute and getting so big and all smiles🤗It's so beautiful seeing Taylor interact with her baby!☺❤
He is so precious. This makes me miss my son at this age so much. 3-6 months is such a sweet time, even though their naps are annoyingly short, haha. I think my son was taking like 5 or 6 per day with how short his naps and wake windows were. Naps got longer at like 7 months and his flat head slowly got better when he started rolling on his own~ I also love seeing his lovely safe sleep space. You've clearly put in so much work researching everything for him.
Knowing the journey of you and Tom to become parents makes it feel so touching watching this. I teared up 3 times watching this video. The joy and love you and Tom are experiencing even in the most mundane day to day moments is just so beautiful. I’m so happy you and Tom got to realize your dream of having sweet Levi, it really did have to be him!!
He's such a happy baby❤️makes my heart feel so full🥰. Sending so much love to the family❤️
I can't tell you how many times I teared up while watching this video. I'm so happy for you Taylor! You look so good as a mommy. I remember finding your workout videos when you were in Japan and following you from there. It's so amazing to see you grow in multiple ways! I pray that things continue get better and better for you everyday 💟💟💟💟
Taylor you are the most wonderful responsive parent. You hit the nail on the head saying the hard times wont last forever. And thank you for being so honest - it is so refreshing especially as alot of youtubers can really sugarcoat parenthood and make it look much easier than it is. All the love
Thank you for taking us along the journey Taylor. Love watching you learn as a mumma. As a 31YO, single independent woman I still appreciate & LOVE your content xo
Watching you grow as a mother and as a woman is so exciting. You are so sweet and gentle and Levi is just beautiful. I get choked up watching you all.
I was always afraid of having kids but seeing you with your baby is so heartwarming that i completely changed my mind now❤ I hope that one day i can experience motherhood too😊
You are so strong and such a light
White noise it great to help baby sleep, washing machine, a fan on or rain sounds on asmr. Absolutely cute and wonderful. Love from England❤️🇬🇧
He’s a doll! If i can recommend - get him used to noise and not quiet. Start with white noise or music. A friend would plug in the vacuum and let it run. You all will be much happier if baby fits into your routine.
I just really want to praise you for your editing. It’s nothing too fancy but I appreciate that your videos are well planned and relaxing. We can definitely see that you put work and thought into your videos❤️
I would love a video on Tom and Levi. How Tom is doing, what it was like from his point of view the first couple months, things they do together, ect!
Love you! It's amazing how we can see all the changes in your life throughout the years. Keep up the good work mama!
Losing my brother ten years ago left my life empty with cool Auntie vibes and your videos give me a sense of what it would have been like. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family Taylor 💕
Sending you a virtual hug!
@@amandamfds thank you 🥺 I needed that
I remember the first months with my 1st baby 🥰 As mothers, we do everything and have the time to do so, which makes those such wonderful memories. With each child however, it becomes more difficult to be as attentive & meticulous with the little things, so enjoy every moment Momma 😘 Such a beautiful time
Seriously so excited to have 2 videos so close together. (Obviously you do it when you can girl. Dont oressure yourself) You are doing amazing Taylor. Levi is perfect in every way. Just make sure you remember it's okay not to be perfect, to mess up. No parent is even close to perfect. You are such a loving, truly caring mother. Remember to take time to yourself and that it's okay to not be okay sometimes.
Happy to watch your videos and see you as a mother. You really are an incredible mama!
Levi is growing up so quick. Take your time enjoy every minute. It’s so of good you sharing your little family with us x
these videos will be the sweetest things for Levi to see when he grows up, every time i watch them i can't stop thinking about how incredible our mothers are 🥺 both of you will be such good parents and seeing the journey after so much hardship is so beautiful, and Rosie is my favourite dog ever I've never wanted a pet but she's the only one I'd change that for 😭
All of you make each other so happy. It's absolutely lovely to watch 💗💗🌻
Levi looks soo cute and calm. I could watch them all day haha. 😍 Hope you three and Rosie have a wonderful day. xoxo Alex
Its so heartwarming to see you being such a wonderful, caring mother Taylor, my hearts literally melting AHHHHHHH
I cry every time I get to watch someone else share their journey of motherhood. It takes so much out of a person. There's a lot of happiness but there's sadness to some aspects too.
So happy for you both that Levi’s such a happy baby! I’ve been watching you for years and years & just so happened to get pregnant about a month or two after you did! My baby girl is 2.5 months now and I’m loooving the new mom content! Keep them coming please (when you have the time, of course). It’s hard to do anything these days, my little one also naps mostly 20-30 min naps in her crib during the day too. Wishing you and Tom tons of lovely moments in the years to come! 🤍
He's so adorable 🥰 a mix of Tom and Taylor. I think he got his eyes from his dad, and his nose and face shape from mom. Such a cute little baby 😍
I can't believe you are a mother now! I'm so happy for you!!! Like I remember when I used to watch your videos with Sharla when you were in Japan. I'm SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! You are doing a GREAT JOB! I can't imagine how hard it is to be a mother and you're definitely doing amazing! So much love for you and your family!!💖
Watching your video brings me back memories of my newborn 33 years ago. He is now a big young man & I really miss those days when he was Levi’ age. Soak in the present moment & enjoy the busy time now. It is so worth it!
Levi is such a cute and gorgeous baby. Enjoy your time with him, it will go lightning quick.
I can feel the love and care through the screen 🥲💞
Taylor, I feel so genuinely happy for you! You really flourish in motherhood and you are glowing from the inside out. I'm really happy this journey led you to this.
I’ve been following you for so long 🥺🥺 I’m proud of you Taylor !!
I recently found your channel, and I love watching y’all. Levi is so cute!! Thanks for sharing parts of your life with us.
Welcome to the family ❤️
So great to see you adjusting so well to motherhood.
His smile is everything!! Such a beautiful family and sending you blessings your way!!
The shots of Levi sleeping are hilarious! T-posing on all of us.
Thinking back to your journey, and seeing you with Levi is so beautiful - love the mom content, so happy for you :)
So nice to catch a glimpse into life as a new mum! You're doing amazingly! I'm 11 weeks pregnant with my first and so excited to be a mother.
I really really Love your videos, especially your vlogs and all mommy - baby content. I Love how positive you are. The First baby year for me was a cultural shock. It was tough on us but it all became better around my boy turning 8 months.🥰 Can‘t imagine my Life without him anymore.❤️ But you all seem to be just genuinly happy and positive and calm. I‘m so happy for you.❤️
wow this is the soonest i've ever watched your videos xD right time right place! Love you Tay
Omg he's so cute. I'm loving to see Taylor as a mother 😍🥰 she looks so happy 😊
Awe Sweet Taylor ! What a wonderful vlog !! I keep noticing so many good things about you, Tom, Levi and sister Rosie. Levi is so active and alert, receptive, responsive and the interaction shows how much time you and Tom have spent time. You both are good parents. Take time. You will get your past life and this one blended. I used to teach ring and roller classes. That roller for 10 minutes is restorative like yin yoga... To restore you need 10 min minimum!!! Excellent IMHO. So proud of you. It's hard to figure out how it's all going but you are doing it. My prayers are with you and your precious family. 💗💗💗💗💗
What a great mother you are. Don’t worry about uploading or getting anything much done. This is a very intense bonding time for you and your baby and it will be over before you know it and never repeated (at least not with this first child!). It’s important to rest a lot, to not be too ambitious in what you do, to try to find time to take care of yourself. Like I said, it’s super intense and super repetitive, but this is the all-important bonding stage between mother and child. You are doing an absolutely terrific job, Taylor, unbelievable that you’re a first time Mum, you seem to take everything calmly in your stride and I must say your little Levi is an extremely beautiful, super alert and clearly bright little boy. It only gets easier from this point on - until they become teens (!) but you’re a long way off that, so that’s a bridge to cross many years into the future! For now just enjoy his smiles, learn what he likes, loves and dislikes, and try to provide him with new sensory stimuli everyday. Encourage him to try crawling, even though he’s still very young for that, and encourage him to begin to grasp small objects from your hand which feel different - crinkly paper, cotton wool, something sticky, something sandy, something wet and play and trace these different textures against his skin. Babies learn so fast and so much when they are stimulated and well done with the music, keep introducing him to non-scary, non-loud different types of sounds, music and instruments. The more he’s exposed to in a safe and caring environment, the more his growing brain will assimilate and the more developed and intelligent he’ll be. Try reading him some books which have different characters and different voices so you can help him experience all the different types of tones and voices he will begin to be exposed to in the real world. Nursery rhymes are great too as they often have funny sounds and repeated language and rhythms. All this will help his development and his understanding in a fun and stimulating way. Most of all, well done for getting through the day with a smile on your face. I have simply no idea how you manage to actually film some of it for us too!!! 😊
He is adorable! When my kids were newborns I would just do business as usual. Vacuum or blender I just used it even when they were napping, I didn’t want to change things up too much. I would just have a noise machine in their sleeping area. They could sleep thru anything 😂
I love your vlogs Taylor, it makes me look forward to these moments to come in life, and I feel so nostalgic about my time in Hong Kong. I miss it!
Taylor, seeing your videos with little Levi spark so much happiness for you and your family! I've watched your videos for so long now and you still continue to inspire me with your content, sending my love x :)
I can't tell you how happy I am for your sake, Taylor. I've watched your videos for--what is it?--6 years now, off and on (loved your christmas-series in 2016 btw haha) and a few months ago I remembered that you struggled with fertility. I wanted to check in, see how you were doing, and you were very pregnant. Dude. I was ecstatic
Thanks to you and Carol for the gauze tip, I'm LOVING all the mommy content, also Levi has the most adorable expressions and sounds, keep up all the good work, you look beautiful and so happy!
Right?? Good idea
Oh Taylor! IT's been forever since I watched you. You are such an amazing and nurturing mother, you are raising such a beautiful little soul! 🥰🥰
So amazing to watch your dream come true Taylor, we know how much you wanted this and it’s so freaking cool to see you be a mama
Can't wait to see the day where you are available to fly to canada so that levi can visit family. Hopefully everything goes well in the future 💜
You're managing SO much better than me at 3 months. I promise, it gets easier!
This made me feel so calm, I love your family! And Levi is precious 🥰
Levi is literally the perfect mix of you and hubby 💞
I’m a mama of 5, and watching how good you’re doing with just your first is amazing and i wanted to let you know that! I do have un-asked-for advice😅 try a white noise machine. I tried this with my 5th baby and she took two 2-3 hour naps and slept all night. I put it on pretty loudly while she’s still awake and falling alseep so it doesn’t wake her. I was also able to vacuum and do daily things while she slept! You’re doing a great job mama bear!!!
I swear one day Levi is going to come at you with "You put on the Internet me peeing on a wall???" XD He is the cutest baby! Tom and you are obviously doing a fantastic job. What helps for flat heads is tummy time. Levi seems already so good at it! The muscles used to lift his head will tract the bone and righten the shape, so the more tummy time the better! You can also check when he usually gets more pressure on that part of his head, for example in the crib he naturally has his little head turned to the right side to be able to look at you, you can put him on the other side of the crib so that he will want to look at you and turn his head left. Same for when he's in your arms, if he's used to be against your left side, the right side of his head will receive more pressure, etc. Just a few tricks! Also what helped me immensly for sleep is the book by Elisabeth Pantley "The no cry solution", it just respects (and explains) a baby's natural cycles and works with that. It was a life savior for me 😊
I love how you're so open and honest! I started watching you after seeing you on Safiyas channel. I'm loving the new mom content!
I see so many "mom vlogs" where they feel so "perfect" and they make me feel like a horrible mom 😅 My daughter is 6months old and coincidentally named Rosie!
I watched your whole journey during my pregnancy and it's been beautiful and touching to watch ❤️
Yesss! Please do a nighttime routine video. I’ve watched your channel for years and you’ve always been such an inspiration thank you so much. I had my son march 15th of this year it’s been so cute to watch you and Levi together as my son is also so close in age.
Honestly you are doing great. My son since he was born was only able to do one nap and that's it. 😅
Don't put too much pressure on yourself or strive for perfection. Things will be in a constant flux, change is inevitable! You will find things that used to work not working anymore (like naps). Overall you are doing great and he looks happy and healthy 10/10 ❤️
If you keep the home to quiet, the kid will have problem sleeping with noise later. I couldnt avoid noises, because my walls are not sound proof. Kiddo slept through a fire alarm but woke up from daddy sneezing in the kitchen.
I've been watching your channel since my girls were in Jr. High. They are grown and much like you are out on their own living lives having family's. I'm so happy for you and your family 🙏. God bless you
Taylor, you are such an amazing mother! I have an 11 month old and I am crying with how patient and happy you are with just being home with your boy and elbow San. I remember when my LO was 3 months and I was so stressed and just an awful mess. I wish I took the time to appreciate everything like you are with your family. It is making me really look at my life and how I am reacting to the stresses of having a baby. Thank you for uploading these videos. You are doing an amazing job.
Also, our LO slept great at night but had very short naps unless we held her. It gets better around 6 months. She started napping for 1.5 hours. Sometimes if their naps are too short you might need to lengthen the wake windows!
Oh my goodness, cuteness overload
I miss the Rosie videos haha I’m so happy for you Taylor. It’s hard sometimes merging your old self to the new mother you are but I’m sure you’ll do great! I love your videos and you’re so inspirational!!!
