BIRTH STORY / GETTING BACK IN SHAPE / WEDDING UPDATE / AND MORE (Q&A)

[@angelagotz729]

As a blood donor it's fascinating to hear someone's story who has received a transfusion. I'm glad you recovered well and are doing fine now! Lots of love from Germany to you and your family❤

[@leedlbagginshield8492]

Romee looks so pretty and her skin is glowing. I also like the transparency of them

[@davidburton202]

What a wonderful couple and so mature , I am happy young people like them exist.

[@toniapedd]

The way you still look at each other since being together so young is beautiful❣It's obvious how in love and meant to be together you are. I love the older videos when you talked about Laurens walking you home in the snow & freezing cold, the whole story.And now blessed with two kids💕💕You guys not only won the best looking gene pool but the whole fairytale romance life 💝

[@angelschenni]

You guys are one of the major role models for love, life, career, children, commitment and life choices. Thank you so much for the update ❤

[@honeycomb9156]

Mm why role models?

[@tatyanakolomeets2721]

Because they are together for 10+ years, he went with her to USA when she was working as a model, they are doing everything together, he supports her all the way, now they have 2 kids, they built their own home and are getting married. Perfect example of a couple, perfect example of partners

[@sblackmore5931]

It took me about 1 year to feel ok to work out all the time with each of my three kids. I was tired from breast feeding, my iron was low, etc. But it only took about 6 weeks of working out to be in good shape. My measurements were a few centimeters bigger than before until they each turned 6. Then it was like reversing time- I got smaller again and my old clothes fit me. You'll be happy that you spent so much time together when they're little.

[@amaliareynoso]

Laurence helping you is so heart warming 🥹❤

[@astridcomerford6309]

you can see how concerned & worried Laurence was, so glad you got blood transfusions. you are a fab, down to earth couple, enjoy your little family now. love watching your vlogs, best wishes from Ireland.

[@ninaricci8832]

Thank you Romee and Laurens for taking time and sharing little parts of your life. You’re so genuine and sweet family. Bonne rétablissement Romee, strong health to the whole family ❤️

[@UXDA_Official]

So sorry to hear about the traumatic birth experience! So glad you pulled through in the end. You make such a beautiful family ❤

[@MashaGri]

I'm sorry you had a difficult experience 😢Glad to know you're okay now! I am delighted with the names of your children! It is very beautiful. I wish you to be a happy family ❤ Greetings from Ukraine 🇺🇦

[@omglinde]

♥️

[@shadowgirl393]

Marsha , go away!

[@trinakc]

Thanks for keeping it real. It took 15 months after my first to feel like myself again and even think of starting to work out. Everyone has their own pace and challenges. I hope you recover well and find your own pace. It looks like you have a great partner to support you :)

[@nataliazolotova1754]

OMG, I almost cried. So stressful! Wish you and your family health 🥰 It's great that you decided to take it easy. Getting fit should be enjoyable not forced by some standarts. You got it!

[@mrsgingernoisette]

You guys are the most beautifully healthy and normal, educated, rightminded family in the polished world of modelling/fame etc.

[@samanthaweiss867]

Romee, I'm so sorry you went through that. Thank God, you are okay! I hope you continue to heal and feel better soon. So frightening.

[@JenniferL.3]

I’m so sorry that you went through a hard time during birth Romee, so glad you’re feeling better now. I’m super happy about the family you and Laurens have formed, wishing you all the best 🇦🇷🤍 thanks for always being a big inspiration to me!

[@Keesha]

Women’s’ bodies are truly incredible ❤. Look at you talking about a near death experience after birth, like it was a routine walk in the park. So happy you and baby are okay now❤

[@CC_Babblecock]

😂 And I don’t think she even realises she’s doing it! (Making hard things seem so normal and doable, and somehow keeping it real at the same time!). It’s so nice watching their vlogs because they are so calm, they just love life, they take the ups and downs as they come - I think they would both make great motivational speakers as they grow older, or maybe writing a book together. ❤

[@ginafriend1690]

Sorry to hear about how you went through delivery. Wouldn't wish that on anyone, but it's now behind you, thank God. I wish you guys the best in everything ❤️

[@Анна-р6ж2ы]

I don’t know why I missed this video, but you’re so COOL! It’s incredibly to see how you grew with Laurens from the first video on this youtube channel. You motivate me. Wish you health and happiness. Thank you for uploading videos🤗

[@shannonhauser8610]

Glad to hear you recovered quickly. I also lost nearly 2 liters, they didn't want to give me blood so it took me several weeks to feel somewhat fit again.

[@gscott8255]

im so sorry you had such a scary labour and delivery, im so glad everything went well in the end

[@princesscharlott1983]

You guys seem to lovely and normal - despite how easily you could be the opposite - it’s so lovely to see how homely and REAL you’ve stayed x your kids will benefit no end from this x lovely humble sweet and successful people

[@nettadebeer9936]

You are amazing…I really think you are the first couple who’s Parents first..and still the same people with your feet flat on the ground..like normal parents..beautiful

[@pannenkoekmetstroop]

Thank you guys for sharing this ! On Monday I am going to do my first blood donation, and honestly I am kind of scared. But your birth story Romee reminded me of the great importance of donating when you can. Good to hear you recovered well, enjoy the family time with the two little ones ❤️

[@denisegoosen2120]

Wat leuk om jullie weer te zien, en nog van harte gefeliciteerd. Ook heel fijn dat jullie zo open en eerlijk zijn en dat het niet altijd rozengeur is na de bevalling. Jullie steunen hier mensen echt mee! Dankjewel, en hoop snel weer iets van jullie te zien.

[@JL-ed4cb]

Helemaal mee eens!❤️

[@tootsingtonfabulucy1050]

Have a city house so that Mint can attend top school and a weekend home in the country with big backyard. Best of both worlds!

[@Bebe45648]

Top school 😂 welcome to NL we live preen equal here. It much difference between schools. Private schools / top schools don’t really exist like in Uk. Us etc.

[@Sophie-tp1ce]

And I definitely prefer the equal school systems in the Netherlands and Germany. As for Germany, the top universitites are all public (paid forby the state) and private Unis are worse and not as recognized by companies as the public ones are :) it’s an equal system with equal opportunities, which the US has clearly failed to achieve.

[@abigailgarcia73]

Their her parents not you.

[@gaiac1979]

@@Sophie-tp1ce idk when i visited frankfurt the homeless and poverty situation rivaled that on skid row in LA

[@juliav9067]

The Netherlands is literally so small that you could live as far away into the country as possible and there will still be a good school within 15 km distance, so a city house is not necessary whatsoever.

[@Alinfear]

Thank you so much for sharing such intimate information and being such a natural, unpretending, smiling family. Seeing you struggle with the same things as mom despite that you have money and fame makes you feel close as friends. God bless you :)

[@kaylabruner1045]

Thank you for sharing your birth story! It's important for women to hear all of the scenarios, good & bad. So glad you're doing better! Congratulations on your beautiful family!! xx

[@deeeesimoes]

Thank you so much for your testimony. I had the same birth complications as you in my first pregnancy and now I’m so afraid of that happening again. I’m so glad you could have Laurens and family by your Baby and your side. Because I gave birth in 2020 I could not have nobody next to me and my baby was for almost 2 entire days with the nurses…😢

[@deneenogbeide5087]

A woman is so vulnerable while giving birth. Thank God you survived the birthing process. I had PTSD after giving birth and really had to deal with the reality of what happened.

[@alisonmurrell6068]

So glad u recovered and are doing well with your children 😊

[@MandiMomOf9Channel]

I had a baby girl one month after Romee had June (so Ava is 2 months right now), and my epidural was very messed up too, they had to redo it 3 times, I had a super long labor, and my iron was very low (luckily I didn't bleed much so they just gave me a bunch of iron in my IV).

[@giuliad2245]

what amaze me everytime I hear these stories is that in the netherlands the cost of health insurance is high and then this is the service they give you back... Happy to hear that everything at the end went well! I can just imagine how tough those hours were for you both. Big hug!

[@hitomitomtom]

Aww Laurens. It must have been so stressful for him as well, not knowing what to do. But I’m glad you all have each other and everything is ok now!

[@Beingselfawarekh]

I love listening to the two of you. Your energy is so calm and fun! Thank you for sharing your experiences! :)

[@ashleybrude2846]

Wow-what an intense birth story! Praise God for advanced medicine, that they were able to give her blood and keep her alive! I bet that was a very stressful time for y’all. You seemed to work through things well together. 💛

[@haileighg1687]

It's so interesting hearing this from your perspective because I work in surgery and we do those procedures. I only ever see the patients when they roll in and I don't get to hear the whole story from start to finish.

[@zoeywillems]

Wat een heftige ervaring hebben jullie gehad, dat moet angstig zijn geweest. Wat knap dat jullie dat durven te delen, blij dat je er weer bovenop bent gekomen. Jullie zijn een prachtig gezin, geniet van elkaar ❤

[@valeried2941]

Hello from U.S. just from Philadelphia!! Congratulations and am very happy you are well now! You must have both been frightened!!!What a beautiful family! Hoping for smooth sailing going forward!

[@nataliedziatkovskaya715]

Dear Romie ❤Thank you for finding time and sharing your life with us. In one of your videos back in the days you mentioned you have an exema near your hair zone. Please please please share how you take care and heal it. Love you. Wish you and your family to stay happy and energized 🤍

[@jenr0x]

I’m glad everything turned out well Rome! Please consider donating blood when you’re able to do so. Someone else might be in your shoes and your blood will be a literal lifesaver 😊

[@ladyindigo9835]

You have a strong body so the recovery will go well! Make sure that you hydrate walk and rest! take time for some self care and relaxation! you both Are doing great!

[@erikaleonard2848]

I agree it's important to figure out where you wanna be before Mint starts school. Having that foundation and stability is very important for both your girls. The birth of June, wow, mama you really went through some tough stuff!! I'm so sorry to hear 3 needle pokes and the Dr didn't get your epidural going! And then to not have it take your pain away, that is terrible luck! 😕 Felt really bad for Lawrence wondering how they were going to fix you and heal your body! You both have a beautiful healthy family and I guess these tough times are what make it all the more worth it and special because you had to fight and be tough to have it! Sending blessings and hugs from South Carolina USA 🥰🥰🙏🫂🫂

[@CC_Babblecock]

Thanks for sharing your story Romee and Laurens, wow, I can’t imagine what you must have been thinking 😢 Sometimes I think the fathers aren’t credited enough for being conscious, witnessing everything, and trying to hold it together. Maybe you could do your own video from a Dad’s perspective in that situation ❤ Much love!

[@kawstar78]

You two are beautiful souls.

[@sashal.n9454]

Been doing 2-3 hr date nights (post nap/before bedtime)!♡ i only have one toddler but it's amazing even just that much time helped ...ideally weekly but it involves PLANNING..not always easy!♡ good luck guys!

[@Zyy225]

You guys are stronger than ever together..feels like you two keeps uplifting each other in a very beautiful way ❣️

[@ulvia4655]

Omg guys, you’re heroes! 😢 thank God everyting was fine in the end! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@wonderland2023]

I have had a blood transfusion too for anemia, it isn't easy. It takes time to feel like yourself again. Pink Stork gummy iron is nice. God bless.

[@HelloMoto_]

That is so scary, I can’t imagine how Laurens felt. I’m glad you are doing well!!

[@Erika112296]

So much love to you guys I’m glad your family is all ok!! That’s so scary what happened during your delivery Romee!

[@emmawj011]

I adore you guys for your honesty!

[@La._.Reginaa]

I just wanna know the name of the clinic where doctors cannot perform epidural😬how do you trust them with the surgery then?😕

[@MANIFESTINGMYBESTLIFE]

Yassss queen so glad to hear from you. Congrats on your two wee ones I wish you guys much success and blessings in your lives, much love from Canada. 🥰🥰🥰

[@Taureanfitness]

Awe Romee I'm so happy for you! I think you're doing everything right don't worry about getting back and shape you look absolutely gorgeous and my sister had 3 children and breastfeed all of them and her body for the most part came right back because breastfeeding help burn a lot and she was running around after the kids and working. But you're doing everything right you're focus is right where it should be on your family. I do think it's important you and your man add a date night and stick to it you need that time for each other It's so important to keep your relationship strong.You're just an amazing woman and very inspirational you're killing me killing it girl. As far as planning a wedding I wouldn't push the envelope too soon you can just get married by a justice of the peace and keep the ceremony simple and then when June is a little older plan something bigger than the 2 girls can be flower girl But I think right now it's gonna be incredible stressful

[@viewtheworld360]

Hi Romee, can you please a detailed video on what you eat in a day to loose post birth weight?

[@snowbeach7]

ty for sharing all these romee 💕. happy valentines day to both of u & ur beautiful family 💞

[@Anoukkboer]

I love that you hear on Lauren's accent that he's Dutch

[@ConveyBeauty]

Love how real you guys are❤

[@Caroline-us1hn]

I get the fact that you would miss the city vibes. I personally love the outer rings of the city. I grew up in Zwolle on like 15 minutes by bike from the city centre, but it was also really nice to have nature around. So there were the cityvibes, but also the forrest

[@Ana-gm6uy]

I adore and miss the Netherlands so much!! I used to live in Moergestel, well wishes from Mexico 😊

[@improvementTime10.3.17]

9:44 modeling is a lonely job, travel world by yourself, and it’s a hard world too a lot of rejections and effects self esteem, she only enjoyed it cus Lauren’s was there- traveled w her, kept her grounded etc

[@widukind2912]

what was ultimately the cause of the bleeding?

[@blessedmama000]

I love you guys as a couple ♥️ always stay together ♥️

[@eg8200]

Thank you for sharing the story, very touching... Sorry to skip to something completely different but I would like to ask some tips on a new baby monitor. Which one do you use now? Our Luvion Grand Elite 3 doesn't work in our newly built home because of the insulation... Also are there other products that you love using with June and didn't yet with Mint? Thanks!

[@judyderieux8484]

So wonderful to hear all about your lives💝

[@maggief1851]

Take your time for the wedding. You have done so much already. Is your life much more peaceful in the Netherlands?

[@judyderieux8484]

Hi! Romee , I have been experiencing acid reflux lately and I remember Laurens had the same problem so can you help me out and share a few tips or what helped him deal with it ?

[@teeski693]

Have your hormones tested for the headaches. You guys are the best!

[@mariafernandagacharnapardo652]

That labor was very scary… I’m glad you all are fine. We miss Laurens’ magic tricks hahaha

[@lady.d3551]

Perhaps during the school year you can stay in the Netherlands … and the rest of the year enjoying time as a family in another country … I’m sure you will meet in the middle I see kids developing better relationships when they are picked up from school by their parents or close family members 😃 Appreciate and like your honesty ☺️ I’m sure many parents can relate ☀️

[@natalyalavor]

Very interesting about birth! Romee you're brave! Congratulations you guys what you find your happy 🤍

[@Frauenhaus]

Something similiar happened to me with my third child in Leiden. We decided against a blood transfusion. Hospital staff are pushed when it comes to problematic births.
