a week of plant things #26 - wishlist plants unboxing, berry harvesting, watering & repotting!

[@skyangelthefan]

Mommacita, you have touched my life. Don’t worry about us not being here because of the time you need to rest and nest with Archie. We need you all healthy. Pregnancy looks Amazing on you. As a Nurse, mentally start preparing yourself to give yourself and your body patience to rest and heal. After the baby is born, it takes 1 year for the organs that have been pushed to your back area, so the baby can grow…it takes a year for your organs to shift back into place, so start preparing yourself to learn to rest and allow yourself to rest. We will be here no matter how long. Besos and belly rub 💜💜💜.

I've never been pregnant so I can't even really imagine how straining it must be. But we all have bodies and listening to them is the most important thing, especially when you're growing a whole new one inside of you. So don't worry about the upload schedule or content not being exactly as normal. Maybe easier said than done but those who understand will understand. You're probably my favorite plant tuber too (not the underground type😅) so I will watch regardles!🪴❤

[@Kira-kg4kl]

This, couldn't agree more, you need to take the time your body is asking you for ❤

[@lisaanglim9588]

Your excitement if an unboxing with all the plants you already have is fun to watch. You’re not jaded but real and honest.

[@BarbB-rk2pn]

Being a first time mom was really really hard. I have 2 under 2 by choice and it’s way better the second time around if you want to do it again! All the best on the rest of your pregnancy, you got this mama.

[@danaghostlaw3322]

You are such a beautiful person and you rock that baby bump!! ❤😊

[@riawhetstone3725]

As someone nursing a 3 week old with 2 under 2, you’ve got this! There’s nothing more anxiety inducing than being pregnant & becoming a parent 😵‍💫

[@PetraEmmy]

Oh my goodness Sherman.. Keeping Archie and you in my prayers.. He will be here before you know it. Please don’t be so hard on yourself. Get all the rest you can…I only have 1 anthurium and it’s a crystal.. but I am not opposed to getting more 🤓 and YAHOOOOOO FOR 20k🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@katiewilliams9273]

You said your so close to 20k . I looked and your at 20k . So congratulations 🎊 🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉. Put your feet up and try to enjoy the rest of your freedom lol

[@unplantparenthood]

Eeeeeek thank you Katie!!! 🥰🥰 and yes definitely trying to enjoy the short time of freedom I have left 😆

[@karmari4669]

Please take care, my dear❤Your physical and mental health are more important than anything💚You are so loved by us and your special IRL family😊Sending you all the good energy I can muster🥰

[@kaelascuriosity]

33 weeks already is insane!!!! so glad you and baby are okay 💜💜💜💜

[@jacquelinedaniels87]

Yay for 20k!!I got one stretch mark from my 2 girls, a little line between where my belly button ring used to be-to my belly button and it’s my little reminder of that time. And when I get tan, it doesn’t and gets its shining moments lol

[@christa_Bella_]

CHARMAINE !! 🫶🏽 20k Girl !!! Love your channel 🙌🏾❤️🌱🌱 Also, sorry that you’re going thru so much re the bleeding and cramping 🙏🏾 Awwww Archie 🥰

[@lisaanglim9588]

I’m glad you’re going to do one a week then I won’t go through any Charmaine withdrawal

[@aplantprocess]

I’m so glad you’re okay. What a challenging time. I felt the same way about stretch marks. My mom told me they’re the roadmap to life. That helped. It helped a little.

[@a.cheekyspaxid]

So happy to hear that you and Archie healthy!

[@Monchesque]

If you're looking for ideas that require less physical work I think reacting to the plants that people are most proud of growing that people send in could be interesting! Thanks for the video 😊

[@caseykelson1]

Ok to start… that tilted mirror on the wall by the stainless steel appliance.. tripppin me out! Hahaha

[@plantswithjoshua]

Love these videos so much. Thanks for pushing through and always delivering for us. Hope you're doing well!

[@unplantparenthood]

Thank you for watching and making all the hours of work worth it!! 🥹🤍

[@badplantsofkim]

Loved the video as usual ❤ I’m glad you’re doing that good !

[@lisaanglim9588]

The ficus you inputted is cute with the little figs on it. I want one of those, too.

[@lisaanglim9588]

I love both of your new plants. Especially the Hoya.

[@unplantparenthood]

i hope i can keep them both healthy and alive!

[@lisaanglim9588]

I don’t notice black lines.

[@juliaduffydomrose2148]

Ohhhh girly! I feel you. 33 weeks, you just wanna be DONE. I don't know what settings you're using to shoot your video. But if you put your shutter, at a number that is a multiple of 3, it might make the lions go away. Not really ideal for shooting video, but it'll probably work if it drives you crazy.

[@juliaduffydomrose2148]

*lines...not lions.

[@lisaanglim9588]

The new crystallinum looks very nice.

[@JamCanGurl]

Can’t remember if I enjoyed my pregnancy. I was high risk and I was high stressed. I had twins at 33 weeks and 3 days . Bed rest at 24 weeks 😑. They did great and only stayed in NICU for 3 weeks. 3lbs and 4.3 lbs. You got this. Archie should be a decent size.

[@littleheaven70]

Congratulations on 20k! I’m so sorry you’ve had a rough week. I had my son 5 weeks premature so I can empathise with the frustration of things not going to plan. Did they check you for Vasa Previa? If not, it might be worth asking your OBGYN if they think it’s a good idea. Big hugs.

[@lisaanglim9588]

To me the Hoya never went out of style.

[@Anah-B]

Pink Glory time!!! 🎉

[@melanieg.9092]

Was starting to rewatch videos of yours and the you drop this! ❤

[@maryperry5910]

😮I see you vacuuming with your dyson as I giggle inside wondering how many times you sucked up leaves attached to plants. 😂😂😂

[@Kira-kg4kl]

As an add in for this video and the subject of stretch marks, I know you have already had archie now and you likely won't see this comment, but a really lovely thing my sister did after she decided she wasn't going to have anymore children was she got her stretch marks tattooed as vines just as a symbolisation of life, it looks beautiful I didn't get stretch marks until the last month of my pregnancy and thought I'd dodged them until the last 2 weeks my hubby was like you realise you have some stretch marks under your belly 😂 I couldn't see them so didn't know they existed lolol

[@lillamy2896]

Its cozy to watch you and your friends videos while drinking te.(Sweden) Im not into youre kind of plants but it is still intresting to look at other People passions.

Stay strong, Charmaine ❤

In the warm weathers i can use the balcony to clean my plants and pest treat them. Lucky i don’t have that many big plants. Can you not do that too on your balcony? I have experienced some bleeding when i was pregnant with my son. And i had to stay in the hospital overnight for them to observe. Lucky nothings serious sometimes is normal a bit of bleeding.

[@lisaanglim9588]

The Brielle looks beautiful. I love the wide venation.

[@liexclamationpt]

I follow a dermatologist that will sit in the comments for an hour or two after each video drops to answer questions. Might be something to consider, if Archie allows of course.

[@carolstuff]

I know you’re ready to drop, but you’re so energetic & look great pregnant! Get some rest whenever you can. Thanks for sharing!

[@liexclamationpt]

Somebody once said that exes spin the block to see if you're still stupid, and I... have not been well ever since.

[@a.cheekyspaxid]

[@amandaking7519]

Id kill for that shirt

[@lisaanglim9588]

I had a five hour glucose tolerance test when I was pregnant. That’s a long time to go without eating. Turned out to be negative. But I weighted till my adulthood to developed type two diabetes.

[@unplantparenthood]

5 hours?!?!?! that's such a cruel thing to do to a pregnant woman.

[@ThatGirlShelbyy]

So beautiful ❤❤❤

[@melanieg.9092]

Since you were asking for topics for a repot and chat, maybe a catching up with comments could work? As in advice and other stuff?

[@lovesyorkies3395]

😂😂😂 you sound like me talking to my props….”who are you?” Pregnancy is beautiful and scary. That band is helpful, wear it as much as possible when you’re up and around. When I was pregnant with my twins, I lost weight in my first trimester, no morning sickness, went on bed rest at 6 months because I started to go into labor, had my twins a month early. My daughter was 4.11 and my son was 6.5. I was 2cm dilated when I was put on bed rest. We were blessed that we didn’t have to leave my daughter in NICU, just as long as she was eating. I was worried about that. Granted they are in their mid 20s now. Try not to over do it and prop your feet up regularly. Drink your water…oh and you’re making me nervous getting on that step stool…do be careful or invest in a sturdier one….and then you climb up the big ladder…😱 hugs…

[@cannuck3577]

Is your ficus fruiting? It takes a lot of energy to make the fruit. Perhaps it's drawing its energy from the leaves to make the fruit?

[@cynd-al]

can anthurium forgetii or mag even cross w clarinervium? i heard it was impossible and that they’re in different groups

[@unplantparenthood]

i've seen someone breed clarixforgetii! i've also seen clarixmag but didn't see who the breeder was or evidence of breeding. so not sure it's a bench hybrid or was cross contaminated. i've read so many discussions (arguments haha) about breeding clari with anthuriums in sections it shouldn't be compatible with, but who really knows 😂

[@lisaanglim9588]

Do you cook the old soil to sterilize it? Or just straight onto the next plant.

[@unplantparenthood]

straight into the next plant! i'm not too fussed about sterilizing soil.

[@rhodealexandre6583]

The spa shower is a dream! dream! dream! I can imagine my humungous ficuses in there. I think I would hand a grow light in the ceiling and leave them in there. Dear, I think you need to slow down. Your body is telling you something. Even if they did not recommend bed rest, slow down please (the lifting, bending over etc…)

[@CraftyMoonshine]

Idk why but “incompetent cervix” really irritates me 😂 like imagine if they called erectile dysfunction “incompetent penis” 🙄😅 wonderful news it all turned out ok anyway

[@unplantparenthood]

I laughed at this comment because I thought the same thing when I first heard of it. I was like damn incompetent tho that’s a bit harsh?? May as well call it stupid dum dum cervix?

[@CraftyMoonshine]

Get some rest but do what you can.

[@boopeepope56-ey5gz]

Morning hope you are having a wonderful day. I have a concern baby girl. You need a stool with two or three steps as you continue in your pregnancy. That large step to the top truly concerns me. Your reaching up.

[@lisaanglim9588]

You are looking beautifully pregnant.

[@unplantparenthood]

aw thank you lisa!! you can't tell on camera but i'm breaking out with these mini pimples and rashes around my mouth. i hope it goes away after pregnancy!

It’s called acclimating (:

[@unplantparenthood]

both words acclimating and acclimatizing are correct! acclimate is used more in america while acclimatize is used in canada and other parts of the world. :)

[@lisaanglim9588]

You’re kind of looking like you’re in a darker part of your room. Not that I can’t see you but it looks darker than the rest of the room.

[@mamalongsplants1559]

How are you feeling ❤.

[@unplantparenthood]

very uncomfortable these days!! i wish i was one of those women who enjoyed pregnancy, but to be honest i'm SO excited to finally get him out! 😪

[@maryperry5910]

I had a pregnancy scare one after having 2 children. I cried like a big baby because it wasn't the plan for another one.😢

[@loisito6189]

Oh no you shouldn’t be on the ladder 😮

yes my days of climbing ladders are over- promise!! i'm just really stubborn and always wanna do everything myself 🤦🏻‍♀️
