This video was over an hour before my editor cut it down and it's still long hahahaha - I put timestamps in the description box so you can jump to certain sections if that's easier ❤

I also linked all the videos I mentioned in the description box - including my video on toddler discipline, our colic experience + tips for sibling transitions! 🥰

“A blessing and a gift, not an expectation” - this mindset can help with so many things in life! 🙌🏿

Having a baby with reflux is a million times harder than not. This should be recognised! X

Hi Beth! Kind of a silent follower here most of the time, but I just wanted to say I really appreciate all your Christian motherhood wisdom and advice, and it has personally helped me so much on my journey! I can’t wait for your new product ❤️

@Happyhappyjoyjoy2325 3 months ago

I would LOVE to hear you say more about your thoughts on “open womb” theology! It feels like I am always getting recommended videos that are very pro but I’d love to hear some of your personal and biblical thoughts on why you don’t subscribe! Even just a short would be so helpful!

Would love a video on toddler sleep struggles and tacking siblings sharing a room. I have a 2 and 4 year old both boys and we’re on the struggle bus over here!

Firstly, I am pregnant also with my 4th (congrats!!) and I’m just looking at your turtle neck and wondering how you are not boiling hot in it during June time and pregnant! 😆 I am in tank tops and dresses 24/7 😆 secondly, absolutely so good for kids to share bedrooms. Statistically proven it helps with so many different life skills and communication/problem solving when siblings share a room. Bonus because you don’t have to sit in with them and put them to sleep! They have each other and are less afraid of the dark together. ❤

Tears in my eyes. Appreciate you sharing the perspective of the older women in your church who still have a God-given desire to love babies and that can be fulfilled in other ways. I’m pregnant with baby #2 alongside your pregnancy and had my first when you were having Rosie. Really love connecting with you!

Wow. This video was packed with wisdom!! Thank you so much for taking the time to give your advice and thoughts on these questions! It has opened my eyes to a lot of everyday things that impact me; marriage, children, homeschooling, etc! Much love!

I agree with you that the way a home operates in a marriage really depends on the season of life and what works best for everyone. When I am on mat leave and physically doing better postpartum in that year I naturally take on more in the house because I am home, where when both my husband and I are teaching during the day we have to work as a team to make the house run smoothly. But when I am pregnant and teaching full time my husband will step up and take on more cause I get really ill during pregnancy and need the rest. So yes each season looks a little different and that’s okay 😊❤ 👏

Thanks for spending the time and energy to put these together 😊 God uses them to encourage and challenge my spirit! Praying for you now and also very excited for when you reach 100k soon!

@peytonhutchison9335 3 months ago

I really appreciated what you said about growing your family/wisdom/obedience/open handedness. Always thankful for what you share Beth! ❤️

Hi Beth, loving your videos especially your vlogs and your videos on motherhood. I’m a mum of 2 boys and I agree with another comment I’ve seen - could you share what your daily / weekly / monthly rhythms are to keep on top of your household?
I work 3 full days but I’m home the other days with the kids and I really struggle keeping on top of everything! So would love to see what your rhythms are so I can try and make more of a ‘timetable’ of when things need to happen to hold myself accountable! Thank you!

@dreamchord4544 3 months ago

Such a gift to watch you navigate this season! Hopefully planning #4 soon and likely our last. I'm so sad about it already but I want to learn to be content with what God gives us and know that only He is my ultimate fulfillment, not having babies ❤

@haileylloyd9780 3 months ago

We have similar experiences!! My third had rocked our world , I was soooo confident going into my third postpartum only for her to cry all day and night. She has CMPA ( cow milk protein allergy ) I had to cut dairy and soy!! It took us 3 months but She’s a completely different baby now! Even after all these months that have passed I think my nervous system is still wrecked 😅🫣 I will always remember her as the crier 🥲 but now she’s chill and passing the third child vibes which we loveeeee!!!

A note about to-do lists for anyone struggling with them: I do a few funky things with them. One way is dividing it into "must do" and "should do / would like to do" which helps me prioritize tasks and also gives me grace when I don't complete the "should do" side. I also do short-term quick lists where I can do everything on the list in under an hour, and I dedicate an hour to rapid-fire get everything done. (Usually I turn on my espresso machine that times out after an hour, so coffee is my reward lol.) Lastly, with any style of to-do list, I like to write down and check off the things that I didn't have on the list but I ended up doing as I ran about the house doing the other things. Basically, I give myself a lot of grace and a lot of credit, and that has saved my perception of the never-ending to-do lists. I break them down into what works for me! ❤

you are such an encouragement ! thank YOU for being here❤ i’m grateful for your genuine love for the Lord, and the honest wisdom you share. this channel is a blessing.

@julia_zaniewski 3 months ago

Yes!!! I totally agree with the things you do to prepare your kids for baby! I posted a couple videos on my socials of everything we did to prep our one year old!😊

@jessicaderamos1121 3 months ago

Yes! 🙌 I relate so much to what you were saying about baby #4 and feeling complete. You said it so beautifully! My husband and I have always said 3-4 kids, currently at 2, but same thing I don’t want to fully close the door and I don’t know if I’ll ever fully feel that moment of yes we are done, only time will tell and God ❤ my mom wanted 4 but number 3 brought on a lot health complications making it unsafe for her to have number 4. You truly just don’t know but you also have to be aware of the journey too ❤ 👏

@arrianacguerrero 3 months ago

We are living such similar lives. I have a 1, 2, and 4 year old and I had my 4th baby 2 months ago now. My 3rd was the hardest transition and I honestly don’t know how I made it through that. My 4th baby has been such an easier transition and completes our family. Love and appreciate your insight and tips, and we have very similar values and ways of managing our households ❤ thank you for your videos!
