Oh man. It's as if I'm watching a video of us 2.5 years ago. The sleep deprivation is the worst but it will end...in like a year. You two are doing a great job. It's not easy but it is very rewarding and you're killing it. Love u all!

[@lucilasandoval3084]

I think it's great that you give such an honest no glamour into the life with a new born.

[@heynadine]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@sharda2711]

Totaly agree as many youtubers show an unrealistic side to life with a baby and it doesn't make u feel great! This vid is actually what it's like, true and real xxx

[@auntiemichelleoutdoorsygir9909]

But just think, you’ll never look at your husband and say, “I wish we would have traveled more before starting a family…” :) If only I was young again and did it all over…

[@alysaaavlogzz8011]

Must be nice to have mommy and daddy having u live rent free🤷🏽‍♀️😂

[@don-dspid2404]

No worries, the mundane routine does pass. This is the hard part. It’s nice that your parents live so close to help and guide you and Matt throught it. Make sure to get in the sun as much as you can. Helps with the mental side of things.

[@FromFijitoHere]

As hard as it is, it's so refreshing to see someone sharing the realness of it all! Especially the sleep deprivation and struggles 😅 our little girl HATED being on her back, and once she started rolling things got a little better and once she was in her own room finally started sleeping through the night. You guys are doing amazing!

[@trisarahtops8928]

You're both doing so great! 💜 I know the newborn sleep deprivation is tough, but it doesn't last forever, even though it feels like that at the time! I kind of miss those chilled breastfeeding-in-pyjamas days now that I'm chasing a three-year-old around the house 😂

[@MelanieinAction]

Glad you're sharing more real life stuff! :) I absolutely love travel but this is definitely a nice change. Excited to see your channel evolve and grow like you and Matt are currently doing as parents!

[@heynadine]

Thank you :) we really are trying to expand as creators, try new things. What other things would you like to see?

[@kathrynandtanner3773]

Totally agree!

[@1kuanchinghui20]

Your baby it's so cute 🥺

[@smurfettmm999]

Some tips from a first-time mom of a 6-month-old... Get yourself some blackout curtains for that nursery / office room. Once Elliott starts getting a little older he will be distracted by everything and you will want to make that room pitch black when he's sleeping. Baby tracker is the best app! I'm still using it 6 months later. Matt can download it also and you can link accounts so you both know what the other person has recorded. Girl, get yourself a breast pump that allows you to pump both sides at once! You'll be done in 15 minutes. Lol I'm pumping as I write this. These sleepless nights will pass. It will feel like forever but it should get better in another month or two. My son will be 6 months old tomorrow and he sleeps from 8:30-7:30 with no night feeds. I know this isn't the norm and we are lucky to have a great sleeper, but Elliott will start sleeping longer stretches soon. Good luck and give that cutie lots of snuggles!

[@heynadine]

Thank you for the wonderful advice!! 🥰 you sound like a pro already ! And yes, Matt has the app and is tracking as well :)

[@alyssafoegelle1605]

THE POSTER!! WHAT A GREAT IDEA! I'm gonna go get a poster board and have my 2 yr old and I scribble a similar design for my 3mo to check out in the hallway :D Thanks for sharing! Edit: ALSO love Baby Tracker. I used it for both my babies

[@helenvwalker7919]

Believe it or not, you will miss this dependency and intimacy with Elliott before you know it. Baby play and cuddles are beautiful. Try to make time to have proper little breaks from babycaring as soon as you feel ready. Even a couple of hours with other adults or out in nature can make a huge difference🙂

[@SupaDupaFlyGirl]

🧡🙌 you and hubby will be fine, lean on each other, and remember to get in the fresh air and sunshine. Love the raw moments, no contriving for views. Plus you revolve your day around the baby and his temperament, not on a schedule or strict routine, which is so good for your mental health. Love ya girl!

[@SugarMakesMePOP]

I just found out I I pregnant & I'm so glad you're sharing this, as simple as it may be, it is very helpful! Thank you Nadine 😊

The moment I put him in the crib he’s fussy 😩😂 this is me. I pick him back up❤️

[@maxplanck9055]

Nadine, bamboo infused clothing is great at dealing with sweat without chaffing, cotton leaves you sore,I hope this helps as you struggle through the nights a tired hot mess, a bamboo t shirt should help with comfort, much love ❤️👍🇬🇧

[@cozettekoenig6886]

You day looks exactly like my day with my six week old. We’ve officially given up on the bassinet and we are co-sleeping. It’s the only way we all three get sleep at night lol.

[@alejandrav5790]

The fact that you make time to wear make up is a win! It's been years since I had a make up routine lol Hang in there, it gets better after about 4 months. Also, I noticed you are using a nipple shield, if you haven't already, try meeting with an out of hospital IBCLC. I wish I would've done that sooner into our breastfeeding journey, made a world of difference.

[@LaurenWithoutFear]

You are being VERY productive - you’re keeping a whole human happy and healthy! And this gets better so soon. In the meantime I’d recommend considering renting a Snoo. That helped us get more sleep when little guy was a newborn.

[@singaporewalkingtourstv]

It was an interesting and pleasant video, my friend. Thank you for sharing.👌

[@phoebekerr3300]

[@PrathameshBhat7288]

HI5 buddy, nice vID!

[@marjiecleveland]

You're doing great! Elliot is adorable. Your looking so tired reminds me so much of how it was with each of my three children! It's wonderful how you both spend so much time at home with him. Precious memories.

[@u140550]

definitely, especially during pandemic times as you'll generally have more time to nuture with the child; but once the pandemic is over or at the very least somewhat back to normal you might not have as much of a time. i remember when i was a child, my parents would give me to a baby sitter or let my grandparents baby sat me. i'm so happy for them.

[@CurieuxNomades]

Hello Nadine, our children are grown up now, but we remember the first couple of months been rough, but fortunately, everything gets better over time. And, soon, you'll have great moment to share with us. 😉 Anne & Eric PS : hope you received our email

[@hjcdormouse7337]

Lol this appeared in my recommended.. I had to laugh being a mum I soooo remmber how days and nights use to blend.. I am a night owl and my daughter inherited trait. In December she will be 30 and is married but 🤔 3am thinks nothing of phoning for a catch up as she is awake, knows I will be awake and come 08:00 we will both be duvet diving until midday. I was called in to get all my friends babies into sleep routine with 100% success but with my daughter no chance gene trait for night owl to strong. Cherish these days, even when exhausted as they are gone in blink of an eye and as they get older you then realise worry we all put our parents thro as we reached milestones going to school, Driving, dating, festivals, married lol from time we conceive the worry starts it just changes with what we worry about.. But worth it x

[@adventurelifewithbob2960]

Becoming a parents is the greatest adventure of all. Congratulations, he his beautiful.

[@Rhiles44]

Wow so crazy how everyone’s routine is so different with a newborn. I never pumped or gave my daughter a bottle so I never needed to sterilize anything. And we stopped the whole waking up several times in the middle of the night to feed at 6 weeks. We just couldn’t take it anymore. She’s basically been sleeping through night since she was born So I always felt so bad waking her up to feed her. We never did the whole shift thing either as my husband went back to work After three weeks.

[@MsShellMel]

You guys look absolutely exhausted!! Take it from a Grandma ... let Elliot cry! He needs to learn that crying won't always mean Mom or Dad are gonna come running. And the sooner, the better! Him crying is also good for his lungs. :) Thanks for the update! Get some rest!! ♥

[@kutilda9444]

Thats why i dont want have kids.

[@stephiegrennell8440]

You guys are doing a great job. Just keep pushing through. The first bit of infancy is hard work. But you guys are definitely killing it. :) I remember how exhausting it was with our daughter 2 years ago. And our next little one is due in about 8 and a half weeks. So we are right behind you. 😂 It really helped us get our daughter back to sleep fast when we dream fed her and waited to change her diaper (unless it was a poopy diaper) in the morning when we all got up. Maybe that would help you too? 🤷‍♀️ Anyway. Eliot is adorable and you guys are doing great! 🥰

[@erikaplante-jean7745]

It's nice that you have time for your makeup! I only had 5 minutes for a shower because baby was just crying in daddy's arms. Breastfeeding in bed (and bedsharing) was a life saver for me. baby could sleep 12h with one or two dreamfeeds. Highly suggest, but I know it's not for everybody. If you want to bedshare, there is support groups to do it and stay safe. During the day, my daughter started to sleep on her own around 5 or 6 months old. It sounds long, but hang in there! (and of course it can change from baby to another). I'm happy for you that you have your parents so close! Good luck! After 6 months it's really easier!

[@heynadine]

Thank you for the great advice! Although I definitely don’t do my makeup everyday, and I only really shower 2 twice a week now lol but I’m getting a bit more put together lol sometimes

[@erikaplante-jean7745]

@@heynadine those first weeks are impossible! I remember taking my shower and wondering "how is this possible!?" take care of yourself

[@marlenahannah5105]

[@nataliekuruppu5907]

So happy to see a real life newborn routine.. very honest! Im a 1st time mom with a newborn…and this helped me alot. Great video! ❤

[@rebecaj6045]

Thank you for sharing! Now I don’t feel bad about how “unproductive” I was for the first basically 6 months of my son’s life. My son had Torticollus too, and what helped was: -Switching the side his head goes in his crib and bassinet, otherwise he’ll always stare out the same way -when I held him upright I’d put my cheek on the “favoured side” so he’d be forced to turn the other way if he wanted to look out -when on his back while changing diaper or playmat GENTLY hold his head on the side he should be working on more until ge got too fussy

[@rhondapelletier3036]

Lack of sleep seems at the time eternity. But it only last weeks. But honestly once you have children you will always lose sleep. It's the new normal. It gets easier. They only stay that little for such a short time. Great job.

[@saramackenzie4653]

Your doing amazing currently have a month old myself. Iv found unless your baba is a major pooper some times it works better of u change him before u feed. That way ur not waking them back up after feeding he might go down better that way. Worked for my wee boy but not for my baby girl 🤷‍♀️

[@mizzwanned]

[@lourdeswaite9465]

Yeap I called it baby boot camp. Exhausting but that is the sacrifice every parent to be should realize. You’re are doing great. My baby is now 19 and he also hated the bassinet. Loved being in complete darkness to sleep and extra cold. Figured all that out with time. He still sleeps that way. Ha. ❤️❤️❤️

[@heynadine]

Haha yea, guess every baby is different

[@christinevarghese448]

You are helping me realize this no sleep thing is normal I was awake with a newborn and four year old most hours of the night. Glad they keep growing 💗

[@jwokes13]

I love how real you are. My routine with an almost 3 week old is the same lol. If I may suggest, maybe checking in with a chiropractor for Elliott. If he favors turning to one side, he might of just prefered that way in the womb as well and have a slight shift in his cervicles (neck vertebrae) it is a gentile and easy adjustment. My girl had the same thing 👌🙂 something to consider.

[@heynadine]

Good advice! Yes we was in a twitch position, frank breeched in the womb

[@TSLDame-Crafts]

aawww, You guys look so tired. This part won't last forever, promise.

[@lynnmissen7371]

Gosh you make me laugh 1am you has no idea but 10 years ago 1am you was probably the same 🤣 you are getting the team thing down pat. Don’t babies make a heap of noise when they sleep that was a revelation for me too when the boys were little. We had them not in the room but we did do it for a little while and boy they are noisy. Elliot is so with it and it is so good to spend the time playing with him. Wow you get out of your Pjs before lunch your a super woman .. lots love

Babies and kids ALWAYS sleep better when they lie right next to their mommy.. :-) That´s the law. You can not spoil baby by doing this, common sleeping is great for your bonding and also relationship between you and your kid ;-)

[@heynadine]

Funny isn’t it? It’s like he knows the instant we put him down that it’s not beside me it’s in his own bed 😆

[@lenkanej1634]

@@heynadine Yes, he knows it well. He feels safe, when lies next to you and sleeps better. I would keep him in your bed after "morning" nursing, so you could both sleep little longer after. The first year with baby is the hardest (I used to cry a lot! :-D), but it will get better and better ;-) You are both doing great and will become loving parents. That´s exactly what your baby needs :-) Have a nice day!

Newborn stage was the hardest introduction into parenting but like so many things in life it will pass and there is something new to look forward to. Treasure these moments because it'll soon pass and then you're thinking where did the time go. My son is 12 months now and I am thinking how do I already have a 1 year old?! BTW Elliott is so adorable. Both you and Matt are doing great. Try to take time for yourself even if it's only for a few minutes.
