Rachel...I never hear the AC...just leave it on lol

[@alicerice8506]

I’ve never heard it either.

[@katetomlinson1638]

It seriously didn’t change a thang when she got up to do it I swear

[@TheSiren666]

BECAUSE she edits the AC noise out. She's said this before in a vlog like last year lol

[@kaitlyndaigneault4507]

Fun fact about me , I was born at 21 weeks I live with a condition called cerebral palsy (high functioning) but that’s the price you pay for slaying life early 😂 love you guys ❤

[@MicLilly]

I was born at 23 weeks!! Barely made it myself. Couldn’t imagine 21. Happy you’re here!!!

[@ashleydailey7844]

Forever and always obsessed with Gwen also we truly don’t hear your AC so you do not have to make your mother sweat lol

[@TheSiren666]

She edits the AC out in post

[@superbirdie20]

Boundaries are actually things we set for ourselves, not for others. So “it’s none of your business” is a good start, but it doesn’t lay out your boundary for yourself. It would sound something like: “It’s none of your business. Please stop talking about it. If you continue to talk about it, I will not be able to be around you.” And then if they continue, you hold the boundary of not being around them. It’s a whole different ball game when we realize that the boundary we’re setting is really for ourselves. ❤

[@julianamendesalves5547]

21:47 😂😂😂😂😂 Learn it Rachel! Just learn it! Really, I love your Mom. She is hilarious!❤

[@shinewithheart]

You don't have to turn the ac off. We don't hear it.

[@JuliaDouglasLove]

22:30 lol that was my question and Y'ALL DID NOT DISAPPOINT HAHA!! Thank you! (I'm 21 btw, lmfao)

[@themuttsandthemal7729]

I love your momma so much she is the best!

[@SweetAshGamer]

"LGBT... Q" "IA+" "OMG I'm so sorryyy!" 🤣🤣🤣

[@nhouse7962]

As a mother myself, it is DEEP in us to worry and want to make sure our kids are safe. It has NOTHING to do with controlling it is all about making sure of safety. I let my mother-in-law and my father know when we arrive at our destinations, because I know as a parent I will worry until I know they are safely there. I think most of that (from my point of view) is the traveling, I don't need to know day by day or give my family my day by day. Just when you are traveling long distances.

[@KarlaEmmerson]

I don’t understand how she doesn’t comprehend it! I don’t have kids but a dog and whenever someone else is watching her I want to know where she is, what she’s doing, I think of every scenario that could go wrong etc etc. Of course an actual human mother feels this 10 fold, how are any of you functioning at all away from your kids 😂

[@ajs8186]

As always, your vlogs with your mum are my absolute favourites….she and I are basically the same person!😁

[@amyw825]

40 weeks is 9 calendar months!!!!

[@amyw825]

40 weeks x 7 days =280 days. Average month is 30.5 days. 280/30.5 = 9.1 calendar months.

[@layceehughes5200]

Ugh I just love your mom Rachel! ❤ you two together is the best entertainment! 😊

[@brendam455]

The ending got me 😂😂😂 shit I don't understand kids my self I get scared seeing one 🤣🤣🤣

[@melissacoviello2886]

I’m 100% with Gwen on the location thing. I’m a mom of 4 that I birthed, 2 that adopted me and a daughter in law. It might be unreasonable, but knowing their location calms me so much, same with flight info etc.

[@PrincessPeyten]

Ohhhh yeah I’ll do the rubber band thing thank you mama Gwen for the advice BTW I was the one that asked how do I not think about my creepy ex boyfriend😁😁😁

[@sarah78119]

I love how I just finished "Relax" and you signed with a "Miss you already!" And then your podcast started 😊❤

[@julianamendesalves5547]

37:59 I have seen so much in psychology/ life, that I do 100% agree with you Rachel! Worst is when people have kids just to fit in society. Big mess! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@elenormonen6875]

I like how blaze is always there

[@hollymarie113]

Loved this episode! Mama Ballinger is so great! Question for next time. Any Travel plans?

[@sharonzona4346]

I have the "cilantro tastes like soap gene" too. It's a real thing.

[@julianamendesalves5547]

Your Mom is awesome! I love her Rachel! 🥰💖

[@julianamendesalves5547]

21:48 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Learn it Rachel! Just learn it! Really, I love your Mom. She is hilarious! ❤

[@erikaNmarkieb]

I hate to break it to yall - but 30/31 days in a month is OVER 4 weeks. There’s like 4 and a half weeks in every month, which is what makes it more than 9 months. So yeessss you’re so correct that it’s technically more than 9 months, but it’s not because “months only have 4 weeks” It hurts my brain every single time I think about it

[@ambersaylor9766]

Pregnancy is counted from the first day of your last period, even though conception typically occurs about two weeks later.

[@chelled.4622]

I love Gwen's answer about patience yet on Colleens podcast you both agreed your mom doesnt have patience lol.

[@aprilgeewhiz3814]

I was thinking the same thing!! Too funny 😂

[@JulijaStrukelj]

How did you manage to start this episode exactly the same as you did last time you had your mom on😂😂😂

[@ashleydailey7844]

Btw you had this same exact pregnancy length discussion right in the beginning of the last podcast with your mom lol

[@MomHacks]

40 weeks divided by 4.34 weeks (the average # of weeks in a month) is 9.2 months :)

[@OhhhhNana91]

For me, I never minded when close family asked about fertility issues… it’s when strangers or even acquaintances had the AUDACITY to ask that boiled my blood.

[@Dani_matt]

I don't need to set boundaries with my mom it's my dad. He drives me nuts I can't go anywhere. He gets so upset and says we'll I guess we're not going anywhere this weekend as if we were most likely anyway. He acts like he makes the plans for the day. My mom does. I don't know why he's like this but it kind of feels controlling at times but I also feel it's out of love and he just wants me to be their. Cause my dad has no friends so I'm his friend and I hink as my parents as my friends but man let my little social life live a little too.

[@elisabethjane4410]

these are some of my favorite episodes🫶🫶🫶

[@tiannalecander1035]

Don't forget about the single dads

[@KathrynWard-rv4xv]

Look, in regard to peeing in the shower... I'm a new mom, my sweet girl is 5 months old. Alone time and privacy is limited 😅😅 sometimes you gotta find a way to cut time, peeing in the shower while shampooing your hair. Shit if I could find a way to take a nap during this time, I'd do that too 😅

[@coratuttobene4806]

Blaze staring straight at the camera like he was breaking the 4th wall when Grandma said the baby was so big tickled me

[@nicolecramer3847]

They actually count your pregnancy from the first day of your last period. Not your missed period. So technically we aren’t pregnant at that point.😅 it’s weird idk why they do it that way..but I think it’s why 37/38 weeks is actually considered full term.

[@melrox8809]

I'm married and have always felt like a single mother 😔

[@amylauren3058]

How tired would you be after being Colleen (Erik) or Jessica (Christopher) for a day? Love my kids but I never had anxiety until I had them LOL. Keeping humans alive isn't for the weak. Plus I was an only child, having a boy and girl I now see how they argue and fight at moments - It is exhausting. Plus the stress of financials and day care costs. I had to stop at 2. I can understand how it isn't for some people and they shouldn't be pressured to conform.

[@katetomlinson1638]

My son was born at 37 weeks to the minute, I went into labor at 36 weeks but they slowed it miserably for a couple days

[@gabbyminer9396]

As a avid chipotle lover the brown rice does have cilantro in it.

[@fredlewis1899]

Video ideas, can you do a segment where you read your viewers rants? I feel like that would be fun

[@ArtByDesign80]

27:45 BUT there are hundreds of planes…and hear about a plan crash in a general area when someone is flying… if you know the flight number…you know right away if you should be worried. Not knowing would lead to more stress and worry.

[@angelinahope6202]

Could you talk about how to move on after a break up i’ve been with him for a few years and he ends it and moves on like nothing ever happened and i still miss him

[@pootl]

Mamma B is a 👸 👑 ♠️ 👸 👑 😊

[@patriciagallant8133]

Yeah.... my adult daughters don't understand that I will always be their mother. I will always care. I will always worry. But they DO know I will always be there for them. P.S. Peeing in the ocean may not be a good thing either. I believe I developed a UTI from that.

[@Coco12769]

Who has been looking forward of this

[@MonicaTheMad]

I love hot food but I cannot eat wasabi. Cilantro either.

[@megankidd4671]

Is this an old episode? I am getting de ja vu

[@leonidasreviews2912]

What is the worst animal to be on cocaine??

[@aprilgeewhiz3814]

A bear!! Have you seen the movie?? I think it would be an elephant…

[@Isabel.Morgan]

QUESTION OF THE DAY: why do you call the little dog “little dog” I’ve never heard you actually say her name so does she not have a name? Are you gatekeeping the name? I’m just curious and I’ve never heard you talk about this!

[@watersk2013]

If I remember correctly, it was because 1) we didn’t know Abbie was Abbie at the time (all of her friends and family had nicknames), and 2) I’m sure for security purposes they needed to keep it private (possibly used in a password or something.

[@katetomlinson1638]

Bro quit torching yourself there is absolutely no difference when the ac is on vs off! Not a single sound changed and I have AirPods in!

[@RachelsPodcasts]

There is if it's left on long enough. And takes me twice as long to edit the videos/sound :/

[@katetomlinson1638]

@@RachelsPodcasts can you make a short of it so dramatic lol, but I’m curious how bad it is, we’d rather you be comfortable and happy girl!!

[@aleta5873]

And your Mom has had babies--one big baby...so her bladder's going to be weaker.

[@gabbyminer9396]

You owe you’re sister an apology on her podcast you tired to tell her her and Jojo did a podcast on Rachel uncensored and very confidently said “it wasn’t ati” it very much was Rachel way before Rachel uncensored.colleen has never been on rc. I love you tho

[@pootl]

Alot of people hate cilantro its a aversions

[@katetomlinson1638]

I’m not attracted to anyone, it can happen though I did find my partner
