► TAKING CARA BABIES UPDATE
Hey, since filming there has been a lot of new information about TCB and their company donations.
Honestly, their company donations to a particular person (trump) do not align with my views. I understand people will choose to spend their money somewhere else moving forward or maybe not. In the same breathe I don't condone bullying of anyone or any reason.
I do have to say the TCB programs were pivotal in my sleep journey.
I don't currently know of an alternative program to recommend.
I'm writing this here because I always want to share all the information, so YOU can make an informed decision.

Girl ssme boat! Same boat my baby girl has crazy sleep times sometimes she keeps me up till 5 am. I have cried because i am so tired.

[@ANAYLEN1213]

It's funny that when Brittany says "If you are watching this you are doing an amazing job" Me, a person who doesn't have children yet, I automatically feel like an empowered mother. Like hell yea, I'm doing a good job 😅 🤭

[@Brittroqksz]

😂😂😂😂 love it

[@brittanybalyn]

Hey everyone I really really hope today's video helps you. I know how difficult this time can be

[@MariaandMontessori]

Hope your days turn around for the better soon!

I’m right there with you. Thinking of you hard today

[@basmaalahmad9070]

Thank u dear for ur video. I have a 4 month old son who is driving me crazy and I started taking SSRI for the first time in my life after having him and I mostly feel terrible 😞 thank u so much again for the video and wish u all the best in life❤️

[@dezilu5207]

this definitely helped me! just hit 4 month regression and I’m struggling soooo tired so thank you!

[@kandyshah2968]

Hey Brittany.. love your videos and how real you are.. i have a 11 weeks old and since the day she was born day naps seem to be her biggest weakness.. i have tried everything in my power, blackout curtains,white noise.. she will go down herself if the wake window is correct and not overtired but she will wake up right after 40-45 mins and full of energy. Night sleep is okish. She will only do one long stretch of 4 hours and the rest will be 1.5-2 hours. Hope it gets easier with time.

[@patriciaholman2187]

You crying at the end...I FELT that. Hell I started crying with you. Why? #momlife #hormones 🤪 you’re doing an amazing job, Arrow is a very lucky girl to you have as her mommy.🥰

[@ynakazawa]

Hugs😭 I’m a first time mom like you raising a 4 months old. Putting her to sleep is still a challenge but knowing there are so many moms going through the same thing gives me courage. We can do this!!

[@H0LLYg0LiGHTLY2013]

“I thought babies fell asleep when they were tired” SAME girl same, what a rude awakening... literally 😂😅😭

[@Emron2009]

I smile every time I see you post and do a little happy dance inside! My little boy just turned 7 months old, and you’re the KZbin mom “friend” I never knew I needed!! ❤️😘

[@ChelseaandNick]

You remember when we did that photo shoot like 6 or 7 years ago?! Gosh look how different our lives are!! I am so loving your content these days!! Can’t wait to use all this advice ☺️

[@NikkiBGolf]

Oh man this hit me! I just cried the other night because I’m sleep deprived and raising a baby is tough! Thank you for posting this and being real and vulnerable! Sending you all the love and prayers! 💛🙏

I started tearing up when you did. You are doing such an amazing job juggling life. I feel like you’re my friend and we’re just talkin baby stuff. I appreciate you!!

[@trishnaadhikary2947]

My baby girl is 17 days old and my mental health is already so bad I am crying everyday 😭😭😭😭 motherhood is so Hard

[@andreahyatt6657]

It does get better. I promise

[@annad9534]

It gets easier, the first 2-3 months you and baby are learning each other. After 3 months it gets SO much easier. I was in the same boat. Please ask for help or accept it as much as you can

[@afrozaahmed6346]

Hang in there Mama, it'll be over by the time you know it, enjoy motherhood

[@cassandranolan432]

I totally get this! I feel like it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I promise it does get better the older they get. But please talk to someone about how you are feeling 💕

[@vanejoya6529]

I felt the same way! My baby 6 months and life is pretty much back to normal !! Mama life is so hard but so worth it when u see your baby smile and love in their eyes for u

[@TheAndywassup]

Thank you so much for your message at the end! Hearing you talk about the same feelings I have been having means the world and helps me to know I am not alone in my feelings of failing even when I know that I am doing my best. Seeing what a rockstar mom you are and knowing that you understand that feeling makes me feel like I too can get through this point! My son is 4 months this week and it has been rough! I so appreciate you sharing your life so that we can all learn from/with you and also not feel alone since you are so open. Thank you!!!!

[@georgialily12]

You’re honestly incredible. Everything you said is right! I do exactly the same as you & my baby sleep 8-6am every night and has since 7 weeks old. We as Mums have to help, guide & support one another and that’s exactly what this video is!

[@kolfan931]

I'm nowhere near having a baby but I still watch you religiously! SO calming 💗I've also been a viewer since before you met Cody and the Our Daily Riot days 💕

[@hanetmartin]

Oh my goodness. Thank you for this video. My baby is now 5 months and I was about to cry just before you started crying. I now understand day naps better! Thank you, thank you thank you!

[@abbyb2752]

I just love your mommy videos, my daughter is 3 months old and it’s been really helpful to know I’m not alone with whole quarantine parenting thing.

[@LucyVP]

Thanks for being real and honest. My son is 9 months old and I am having the hardest time getting him to sleep through the night. I had the same issue with my toddler. Once he turned a year (he is 2.5 now) it got a little better and now for the most part he sleep through the whole night but getting him to sleep in the first place is still a challege from time to time. I’m glad you were able to figure something that helped you. Thanks for sharing that I really needed it and I feel you momma. Sending love and good vibes your way!

[@deniseparis6820]

Sending you so much love and hope... whatever you’re going through will pass ❤️ You’re incredible ... just keep going!

[@hotmessmombie83]

As a soon to be mother of 4 I do felt this video all the way through my soul. If I could I’d give you a big ol momma hug! Bless you for making this video (it’s been 7 yes since my last baby) AND for being transparent. It’s so sorely needed. God bless you and your precious family ❤️. Much love from one momma to another.

[@ClubPenguinVidsOnly]

Thank you for making such a helpful video. I feel like everything you said is very true. My 2 month old only wakes up 1-2 times a night and sometimes sleeps all the way through and I’ve done everything you mentioned, so I know you’re right. I cried and got so depressed over being sleep deprived in the beginning weeks and was so scared I was never going to sleep again, so it is very normal to cry over sleep 💕. Mothers know the baby the best and knowing no one can do it better than us is such a bittersweet responsibility.

[@Jusamua]

I cried with you at the end. I’m at that tired stage right now, so I know what you mean. Any words of encouragement always make me cry aswell. Hun, I hope this rough patch of life passes you quickly ❤️

I was also crying along with you at the end. I went thru some really rough times with getting my baby to sleep. And it really affected my mental health. I felt like I was going insane and I didn’t know how to get him to stop waking up all night! We eventually turned the bed into a toddler bed and he started sleeping great. Now he is the best napped and night time sleeper!
