My 5am morning routine as a mom of 4 (how I structure my morning for self care & sanity)

[@robynnohlingfnp-bcrd7539]

10 minute workouts in my PJs with swarming small children is the ONLY way I’ve been consistent - and those seemingly measly 10 minutes make such a difference ! You go

[@jessrawlings7532]

The pressure to wear workout clothes first thing in the morning and workout during the 1 hour before the kids wake up is real! Your morning routine actually feels doable for me 😭🙌

[@Homeschoolmama-fl1vu]

Yesss, I feel it too! I’m so grateful she shared this. It’s so comforting to know other Momma work out in jammies too and it still counts! I know that sounds silly but wow society pressures. Please Christ, not the world 😊

[@staceyabraham617]

This was SO encouraging. Thank you for talking about the seasons where you couldn’t always get up before your kids too! This was so honest.

[@jamie-leewatson3565]

Love the honesty of this! Super relatable and realistic. You almost convinced me to wake up earlier :)

[@madisonbuccola9300]

Thought I was the only one who works out in PJs..so relatable!

[@PrettyLittlePlantBased]

Same girl!! lol

[@gemmagold3826]

OMG THANK YOU so much for sharing your "sloppy" pajama work outs! This is actually so motivating and helpful.

[@PlumOrchardFarm]

I’ve been working out at home since my son was born 6 yrs ago and I’m stronger and more muscular than I’ve ever been in my life. My son also loves to “work out” with me lol. I agree that it’s good for our kids to see us prioritize our health😊

[@laurenslaughter2440]

This was so encouraging! My daughter is four now, and ever since she’s been born, I’ve been telling myself I need to get up early so I can get x, y, and z done before she wakes up, but I get so discouraged thinking there’s no way I can do it all before she wakes up, so I end up not even trying. This was such a good reminder that I don’t have to do it all - my “morning routine” doesn’t have to end just because she’s awake. Duh! 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@AmeliaUnleashed]

I feel you about the working out! I used to see it as focused, quiet time, self care before kids too. I like your perspective change, now it’s mamas movement time while the kids move and play. Doesn’t have to be ideal to work! I will have to try this! ✨ and YES pjs. Great idea!

[@poechristhemfitz]

I have been trying to do this for about a year and a half but I have given up trying to wake earlier than my oldest (3yo). I tried 6am for a while only to have him always wake up either with me or within the first 15 minutes after. The few times I tried 5am he would already be sitting at the top of the stairs, ready to throw his first demands at me. My little one is 1 now and she has always loved her sleep - but recently her brother has started turning on the big light whenever he gets up to leave their room, leaving her in a bright room. He was my first baby and he's a lovely boy overall - but he was not put on this earth to please anybody, it seems, and from the first to the last moment of him being awake our day is a complete whirlwind. And if I wake up early, it that chaos just starts earlier too. So I have finally surrendered my mornings to them for now 😪

[@thehomeblondy]

Such great tips! This was so encouraging as a first time mom who is just feeling motivated to get back into a morning routine 9 months later

[@canadiangirl8775]

I’m not a usual ‘commenter,’ but this video was so good! We have 3 little kids who are 5 years and under and I forgot how much I enjoy getting up before them to drink my coffee and read my Bible. Thank you - will be getting up early tomorrow! 🎉❤

[@sarahbearden6967]

I just loved this! Thank you for the encouragement you provide from a realistic, authentic, and approachable perspective.

[@nicolefischer444]

What a beautiful cozy home🥰 i have a question,what time do u usually end your day and go to bed to start waking up at 5am. Thanks for sharing❤️

[@natashafurduy]

Great job mama! I want to start getting back up at 5 am, makes such a difference.

[@erikapena-terrero5272]

Another mom who exercises in pjs here 🙋🏽‍♀️ I’m a pregnant mom of 3 (pregnant with girl #3 and mom of 1 boy like yourself! 😊) Thank you for reminding me that it’s normal to want to sleep in when pregnant and during the first months of the newborn stage. I’ve been feeling SO guilty for sleeping in and surrendering to the mess so I can prioritize sleep. I really needed this message today. New subscriber, thanks so much for your honesty 💕

[@thedesertdaydreamer]

Love this! I only recently felt like I had the energy to start getting up at 5 AM to have some time to myself and it makes a huge difference in how I feel throughout the day!!

[@JenniferEnos-z6c]

8 weeks postpartum here. I relate so much to having this boost of energy and motivation after low energy and not feeling well for 9 months. These videos are awesome! Thank you

[@hilarybilary9145]

I would love to see your non toxic, natural makeup routine!

[@Woopthereitis90]

Your videos are so inspirational to me, and they really get me motivated. I love how practical and to-the-point your tips are. As a mom to a toddler, expecting my second, still working part-time (and maybe picking up some extra remote work on the side soon to contribute more financially) I get SO overwhelmed at the thought of my next baby coming up and how I will possibly have any semblance of a life or routine. I love how you find ways to get it all done without offloading tasks or depending too much on others for help - sometimes we just can’t do that and have to learn to be self-sufficient. It’s been a huge mental and physical challenge for me but seeing your content has been a big consolation. Thank you!

[@elizathies6303]

Love this video! I have a 4, 3, 2, year old and 1 month old and can relate to this so much! Great work!! Definitely a struggle over here trying to get the kids to maintain their rooms.

[@barbaravyse660]

Wow 🤩

[@emmaashburn3373]

Great video but we can hear I think your bracelets or something clinking together the whole time

[@katrinasimmons9288]

This video is so relatable. I’m now 4 months postpartum with my 3rd baby and if I’m going to work out at home, more times than not, it’s in pj’s too. This time around I’m leaning into getting things done, even if it’s not perfect or ideal and being happy with “good enough”. It’s a busy season of life that we’re in and I’m focusing on progress over perfection and contentment in that, instead of frustration. You’re doing great, mama!

[@macyl5635]

I have no kids and I’m watching this while working out in my pjs!! Lol

[@michelletarr4313]

Do you cosleep? My daughter sleeps with us and I wonder if she would wake up if I set an early alarm to wake up.

[@janetmoreno21]

Would love to watch more videos about your life as a Catholic woman and mama!❤

[@sabreen45]

How do you do this with 4 babies?! I have one and all I want to do is SLEEP!

[@barbaravyse660]

I have two cats that wake me up at 3:30 am for breakfast #1. This has been going on for 13 years 😅. I thought they’d outgrow this.

[@Melmidd]

I'm curious to know what time you go to bed?

[@sigridflora]

Hi Becca! Thanks for sharing reality!!

[@philippians1213]

Hi !! I am a mom of three ! But I am having few health issues like migraine and vertigo. I would love to wake up at 5:00 AM and do everything for my family. Please any suggestions for me ?

[@Nekteck]

This is inspiring! Balancing self-care and managing a busy household is no small feat. 💪🏽❤

[@LoveleighLifestyle]

Can you share your “fragrance recipe” of oils

[@amberlin8668]

I already get up at 5:15/5:30 but my 3 year old ALWAYS knows and wakes too 🫠. Excited to finish watching your video though and dream of this alone time lol.

[@120mitchmd]

Im an energy conserver 😅 #notlazy so sometimes i exercise in my pajamas🤣 or else it will be another excuse

[@ambernicole8486]

Your videos are so encouraging to me! A great reminder that I can (some day- soon, I hope) get back to some kind of daily routine and actually get things done, or do even a little self care when I get past the postpartum stage 😅

[@christinesohn7030]

All this is realistic when your partner it’s watching the other kids 😅 workout and so on 😂. Is very difficult to do that when one mom is alone in the morning w barely support

[@by_grace_alone1334]

This was both extremely relatable and motivated! ❤ just subscribed!

[@shervin6711]

I love that your kids looked like they were interested in your work out. I wonder if they would be more motivated to " focus" if you had a "mom and me" video workout? ( So they see what to do) Give mom more of "a break." So cute!

[@ljaycee]

Such an encouraging video! Spot on that your advice is healthy, but approachable. Love your content!❤

[@VikaFursov-sf4vw]

Do you have a link to the stand you have your berky water filter in? I’ve been looking for something just like that. Thanks!

[@caitlinrachel18]

This video was so REAL and honestly so encouraging as I am about to have two under two!! 🫶🏻

[@nadiak2202]

Thank you Becca for being real!

[@DenisseIcaza]

Thanks for sharing the BIS Marian Virtues study. Now I really want it ❤😍

[@TheHennaRealm]

Curious about what time you hit bed to be able to get up at 5am cause my 8 hr sleep is a non negotiable as a mum😅

[@joannedoran3215]

I’m interested in this and also have 3 month old but I have never really been a morning person. Have you always been a morning person? What time do you get to bed?

[@shayleeglaziner]

I love how real you keep it Becca! Pregnant with twins so about to hop from mama to one to mama to three! Been watching you forever and always leave inspired :)

[@staciemurray514]

I would love a video on different oils you pair together for scent and also what they boost in your body while breathing them in💛

[@delilahmertoglu]

This is the only mom morning routine that has actually felt realistic to me. Thanks for sharing!

[@teisharichins1195]

You always inspire me! Thanks for sharing ❤

[@Homeschoolmama-fl1vu]

Will you share some Mom uniform easy presentable tops? 🩷

[@shervin6711]

The family looks like they are enjoying your new house❤

[@AppalachianTransplant]

Please take.off your bracelets before filming. They're really loud.

[@peaceofdatass5289]

lmao i literally can't even imagine someone telling me to take my bracelets off bc my audio quality is too good 😂 girl seriously stoooop that's too much

[@kelceydennis8023]

What coffee do you use? Is it organic?

[@SummerD0712]

You are honestly one of the most encouraging honest moms on the internet, thank youuuuu for this video!!! You seem so realistic which is why I love you!

[@kellyroy7248]

This was such a lovely and realistic morning routine! Can you explain how caffeine on en empty stomach affects hormones? I’m pregnant with #4 and rely on intermittent fasting to lose the weight. I do drink black coffee while fasting though! 🙈

[@wisdomrelaxation8395]

Your sound is very hight

[@angelwings2977]

Hi Becca I have enjoyed watching your content videos have been very helpful. Can you tell me where you purchased your pretty duvet bedcover? Looks very airy and soft.😊

[@RainieRobinson]

I love your kitchen so much!! Thanks for sharing your morning routine! I totally agree - definitely makes the day so much better❤

[@Ritoula065]

I totally agree. Also started doing this with pjs and my kid around and it makes all the difference

[@PrettyLittlePlantBased]

Here for the sloppy not perfect Mom workouts. I hear you! Thank you for sharing your beautiful routines with us. Love from Seattle! ❤

[@AmBeauty28]

You’re phenomenal!!! Keep doing all the amazing things you’re doing! ❤

[@aniqauddin990]

Omg ur so hard to listen to

[@amandayeates185]

thanks for sharing this! I am loving your white chairs and sofa...are those white slip covers on your furniture, if so where did you buy them? Thanks for the inspiration!

[@RLiberty94]

Thank you for sharing this encouraging video. I’m not a mom yet, but your video really encouraged me to have a more solid morning routine before just jumping into my day, which is what I usually do.

[@tarrynpitts6538]

I am in the best shape because of the consistency of working out at home, its more convenient and i actually keep up with it. I dont do anything crazy, i walk a lot as well. Occasionally ill throw in a super energetic hiit routine depending on my body and cycle. But overall i do a routine in my pjs too and my body loves the movement! Then combine that with moving all day long chasing kids and cleaning, cooking, getting outside...i have been feeling good! Loved this video! Something i have been wanting to do but put off is not having my coffee as soon as i open eyes 😶 your routine has inspired me to start tomorrow. I do feel the effects of it now that im getting older. I think food first would help, a slow wake up.

[@bridgetlong-ks7in]

Loved this video! Can you share what wallpaper you have in your kitchen? It’s gorgeous!

[@ashleycoronado2801]

I'm so excited to get back to my early morning routine! I'm pregnant with baby 3 now and just can't do it. I know it will be a while before I can go back to my 5 am routine but I'm looking forward to it!

[@elizabethsmith6952]

You're so inspiring! I woke up early today to hike with a friend. FYI, in your monologue at the end whenever you moved I could hear your camera focusing.

[@User_NohaAA]

thank you, you really inspired me and encourage me a ton because I am pregnant and very depressed and didn't manage to get anything done but the free guilt pregnant attitude is really what I needed to hear... thanks !

[@jonathanbrown6751]

You look terrific right out of bed! Girl not me i look like i got ran over and throw in the fact i usually cant stop sneezing from the morning allergies its a mess. Lol

[@Homeschoolmama-fl1vu]

any plans to homeschool? 😀

[@candacedavis5291]

Is your water dispenser a Berkey or what kind is it? We have horrible water here since we moved to the south & I’ve been thinking of getting one

[@aalfaro93]

Would love to hear what your plans are for family planning now that you are thinking you are done having babies!

[@sirvlogalot]

do you physically go out of the house to do your dietician job?

[@wanderluster3905]

She’s not a practicing dietician. She does Young Living and KZbin

[@karinatsaruk7831]

Wow thank u for such a realistic routine!! I relate to this video sooo much ❤️ so encouraging knowing they r other moms with similar mornings

[@christinat.7264]

Lol, me too in exercising in my jammies. 😂😂😂. Thanks for sharing your routine.

[@jennaconnour9671]

Thank you for your honesty! You are inspiring and a great mom! Would love to see a makeup routine video. ❤

[@marshahollings]

I wish I could join your program, however it is too expensive

[@nicoleotte2433]

I had that same white dresser and hutch growing up. Took me right back to my childhood!

[@ericamoore7128]

You are remarkable

[@GeinaVellaSmith]

Such a realistic inspiration you are, thank you! 💕

[@MamalyssAndPhil]

This was so inspirational, loved this ❤️

[@lisakrushinski9436]

What oils do you use as perfume?

[@fafnirdrache1733]

I love that you Share about your Routine ❤

[@jjgolden214]

I really enjoyed this video :)

[@winonaandreamagpayo1541]

What oil do u use to put on your skin?

[@lysandra_silva]

What toothpaste do you use?

[@RA-yg7ss]

“I don’t really drink much caffeine” yes uses espresso machine multiple times a day. There is a lot more caffeine in 1 espresso than 2 cups of coffee

[@tarrynpitts6538]

I actually love having a shot of espresso with milk because it is around 65 mg of caffeine which is way less than my pour over cup of coffee. My normal cup of coffee from a pour over is definitely more towards 100 mg to 120mg. Espresso really isn't that bad. I do believe she mixes the beans with a water processed decaf to cut back on caffeine as well.

[@peaceofdatass5289]

why are you micromanaging her video? wooow lame

[@mikaylal9906]

Love this video!
