This is soooo great. You have such insight and it's so inspiring to see you share this insight with people who might be going through similar. Even if someone hasn't had a baby, it's worth remembering that any huge life change is going to make you feel some type of way! Thank you ๐
i do not always watch you so forgive me if you have made mention of this before, but do you actually breastfeed your son besides giving him the breast milk from the bottle? and if not is there any particular reason for this? Thank you Take care and since we are being so honest nothing has started yet sis so put on your armour, breastplate of righteousness, helmet of salvation, belt of truth, shield of faith, shoes of the gospel of peace, and sword of the Spirit because trust me you are going to need them in the physical and spiritual. Shalom
โI wanted to throw him to the skyโ ๐. I felt so bad for laughing at this line. I respect you soooooo much for this video ๐. You are brave, strong and beautiful and I appreciate you.
Itโs really hard being a mum. I had my first when I was just 18 and although i got pnd in a way it was easier because I never got a chance to really โliveโ before I had her. Iโm 32 now with 3 girls and my youngest whoโs 7 had a seizure in her sleep the other night, so Iโm back to being scared, tired and vulnerable again. I would say 2 children is just about manageable but if you have a 3rd thatโs when it becomes manic. Itโs gets easier though, the teen years are the worst,then you really lose control of them and canโt even have sex anymore ๐ฉ
Iโm so grateful for youtubers sharing real experiences of life after having a baby; Iโm 24 and I think Iโve just learnt so much through the story of others- Iโm not there yet lol but itโs like having an older sister explaining things- thank you for sharing, itโs all about taking one day at a time, youโre doing well ! x๐
I agree, raising a child is no joke in the early days. And I think you have to go through it to understand it fully. I also agree that we have to salute ourselves for the smallest bit of progress. I understand that whole not being in the mood to do anything. It's like the breaks you get from the baby feel like they should just be "me" times. I can relate. Keep at it. You get stronger and things getter better. But yeah, its quite a journey.
My love you do not have to apologize at the beginning of your video. Baby we understand.. you're a mum and baby boy comes first and foremost . Miss you though Ms. RHEA. I would love to see a video with you and your sisters on how they feel about being AUNTIES! I miss that feeling well I don't my niece is 13 years old. But I miss her baby days. โค๐ช
My son is 16 weeks on Thursday and I feel your pain trust me it gets easier but the early stages especially the first few weeks are hard your emotional and in disbelief that your a mum and your boobs and just everything itโs hard I know but it will get easier. Make sure you wind him after feeds to prevent him developing colic as that can cause uncontrollable crying in babies, stay strong ๐
When you were describing wanting to throw him out the window I nearly cried ๐ because I felt the EXACT SAME way last night with my babygirl who is 6weeks. She just would NOT stop crying. Knowing that you as a mother have felt this same way and are transparent about how hard motherhood is and how drastically your life changes afterwards gives confidence to new mothers like myself โค๏ธ you are doing amazing x
Thanks for the video. It is not common knowledge that having a baby especially your first one is a proper emotional, hormonal roller coaster. When I had my son I had in-law drama which almost drove me to suicide. FOR REAL!!! I survived with prayer and an amazing husband. Girl pace yourself and you are doing really well. Wish I had this advice back in the day.
I had this stress for months not weaks flipping drained me. But i also think its the enviorment and how your feeling. I could write a book but yeah motherhood aint easy. You just adapt to your baby until a routine can be put in place. Glad ur expressing u because people dont know behind the scenes especially when added obstacles are in you way. Mothers the rite 1s are not a force to be messed with. God highly favour you and family xxx
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.โ Matthew 11:28-30
Jesus will help you EVERY step of the way. So amazing to see your transparency. I love all of the comments of other mums saying, yes she's right! You're doing amazing!!! AMAZING!!
Can I just say Rhea you are one of the realist YouTubers out here…. when you said you wanted to throw your baby into the sky I laughed so hard and it was throwback to when I had my three girls when they were babies. One of the positive sides of social media is that many women now can express the reality of being a mother …..back in my day ๐ป๐ป. Lol we had nothing but I own instincts and family to get us through.
Thank you for being so real and sharing such a great video with us I hope it will help many mums & big up to all the mothers out here Youโre doing an amazing.
That outfit though, you look fantastic! You went through it but it is all part of it because like you said you are now a mother, wait till he is 18 yrs hahahahha. Just kidding but it is all good but enjoy it though because like you said you are now a mother but enjoy ๐ it though, they grow up so quickly!
Hey Rhe Rhe! Never apologise for the fact that you're putting Little Man and Lloyd FIRST. Social media will have you believing that you can have it all and still find time to upload a 1000 selfies a week when in reality motherhood is taxing both mentally and physically. The trick is to vomit out whatever you're feeling and not internalise it because doing that allows them to grow like a cancer. You both are young parents so it is a lot to get used to and at times it will test your relationship but you guys just need to talk it out between yourselves and with other close family and friends and you'll be just fine. Also feelings of guilt hit every parent once in a while it's a normal reaction but read as much as you're able about the psychology behind what you're feeling and attend some parent groups and you'll find you're not alone in that. All the best to you and we real fans will be waiting when you're back to posting as long as friggin' YT doesn't mess with the notifications!
Also sweet not trying to be finicky but check what you are drinking as it might be in your milk and resort in lack of sleep for the baby. For example you mentioned coffee, caffeine in your milk might result in a lack of sleep for him. Supporting you from a distance coz I been there…TWICE! ๐๐๐
Thank you for your honesty! Motherhood is glamorised to the point at which most mothers struggle to tell the truth about what occurs! Letโs be real about the experience, it isnโt all positive, itโs tiring, restrictive and life changing and there will be beautiful highs and heavy lows! You will go through a rebirth of your identity Rhea, but it is all part of the process! Iโve had two and Iโm still figuring it out as with different milestones comes numerous challenges! Give yourself time and be patient with yourself as you find your way! โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ
Iโm so glad youโre getting back to yourself. Iโd love to hear a rant about breastfeeding and breastfeeding in public. I breastfed for 18 months, fucking hated every minute of it but we did it and we reap the rewards now 2 years later. I was always very discreet with breastfeeding just as personal preference Iโd keep myself covered with a Muslin but Iโd still have people starring and making comments nonetheless!! Just think of all that money youโre saving ยฃ12 for a tin of milk????? R u ok???? One tin a week?????? Nah we aint doing it.

Imagine being this genuine, strong, beautiful & intelligent! We love you Rhea, you are an amazing mum ๐
Teenage mums get so much shit, but howwwww are they doing it? Having a whole toddler screaming at you at 19? Never mind doing it as an adult. Nah bye

Love you Rhia ๐ฅฐ
We appreciate your openness. I don't know how mums juggle it all.
We are in God's hands ๐๐พ
I love this Rhea! I can 100% relate to this right here, take your time.. motherhood is a lot. Keep on keeping on โค๏ธ๐ช๐พ

You look great and it's really good to make sure you take time for yourself ๐๐๐ฝ
Throw him into the sky ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ bless you Rhea. Thank you man, no one tells you this shit!!!
If you believe in god, you believe in magic.

(3:10) – What ?
There is no god.
God is a delusion.
I don't believe in magic.

Thanks for keeping it real, a lot of new mums don't! I really appreciate it even though I don't have a child yet.
Well done for making these vid. Motherhood for the first time is no Joke.
