DAY IN THE LIFE AS A MOM | Romee Strijd (VLOG 73)

[@vegasvegan3799]

I love how you guys are so real about your baby and not pretending it’s easy and sharing good and bad days with her. She’s adorable. you’re great parents.

[@katmandoot5941]

I love how Laurens directs questions to the viewers. I chuckle every time.

[@TheColdestWater]

Salute to all the moms out there like Romee who try their best to juggle every aspect in their lives! You're doing great! Keep going!😀😀😀

[@tokyodoru]

Its not that hard when ur a millionaire super popular and famous and a model tho is it lol

[@97DHannah]

Dude let’s not be so bitter😂 even if she’s a model, she’s so real and down to earth and is the last person on earth who deserves hate - juggling babies and work is hard, period.

[@tokyodoru]

@Helian lmao everyone has to make sacrifices for their job there's drs saving lives operating 8 hours a time who don't sleep see family and don't make a quarter of her earning in their lifetime AND HAVE KIDS so you need to check your own logic

[@leahflower9924]

Holding a baby and a camera at the same time isn't that easy actually lol I've tried in the past

[@swagmf111]

@@tokyodoru don't compare... being a model is not that easy like people try to show. we got it she's rich asf but for modeling you have to give up on a lot of things. she's a mom now, she's about to have her second child and it's difficult. you don't live her life, you can't judge her. and stop spreading this negativity we got it that you're jealous of her, but don't embarrass yourself😇

[@123nienke123]

I don’t think you’ve made a vid about this yet but before Mint was born, you showed a lot of the stuff you got for her and you. Curious to hear what you and Lourens did and didn’t end up using/ liking!

[@cindypodebright3454]

Yess!! I think there's a lot of people showing many preps for their babies but i'm also curious did they ended up using all of them or not.

[@leahflower9924]

Now let's show you my body in the mirror you can't even tell I had a baby we know romee lol

[@kateharrison9347]

#reallife. Love how honest this video was. Life isn’t always crazy exciting, especially with a new baby. You’re tired, sleeping becomes one of the most exciting things. So good to see and I take my hat off to you both for loving your baby and making the sacrifices you’re making.xx

[@zarinaromanets7290]

Yes to ALL the blueberries!! And to answer Laurens's question, we do enjoy hearing about your lives and journey as parents. It's especially nice to feel connected to people during the mask era when we all feel so apart. Lots of love from Washington state USA! 💚💚💚

Romee can you please do a video on PCOS and what you have been doing to combat it ? A more in depth video of what you went through because it will greatly help me

[@kikiarhi5301]

Yeah, I really miss her honest talks. I understand she is a mom now, but it would be really helpfull for someone to hear

[@dailynwray7940]

not sure if this is helpful, but there's a youtube called "With Love, Leena" and she has a video on pcos that I thought was really nice :)

[@brieb4317]

Omg I had no idea she had PCOS!

[@lupedavis8809]

Yes please!!!!!!

[@arianamansouri9275]

See a NaPro Dr for PCOS. My NaPro trained Dr has me on progesterone for 10 days out of my cycle and my symptoms are 95% better! I use Marquette Method to track fertility

[@angelriddle8184]

I am stuck at home with Covid right now and your guys’ disagreement about “tummy ache” had me laughing so hard! The way laurens looked at you when you said “look it up” was priceless. This is the content we love

[@sydneywheeler6755]

girlllll, mommy looks good on you. The joyful glow you have these days on your vlogs is just wonderful to see. So happy for you, tough lady.

[@GertrudeBiggsley]

I love the honesty in the video about how tiring it is to have a baby and how much work is involved!

[@SB-hz3or]

I would love to hear you guys talk a little about how Mint is doing in daycare, how many days she will be going and how you made the choice that it was the right time for you to start her there. Where Im from children usually start daycare around 2-3 years so I am very interested about your experience! :)

[@Rere-cl3le]

Romee as a mom ✨perfection ✨

[@n.vision9109]

I would like to see more conversation between romee and laurens. About topics that you both are comfortable with, of course. Love seeing the relationship dynamic

[@jennyelsie]

For the question: I would like to know how your relationship has changed for both the good & the not-so-good since you had Mint?

[@n.vision9109]

Ohh yes hope they answer this

[@lydiasalerno2320]

Good idea!

[@m.m.574]

it is obvious that since Mint was born, Romee has been more tense and stressed and nervous, she used to smile more and was much more relaxed in her vids before the baby. You can see it 11:53 they never talked like that in previous vlogs and I've watched all of them.

[@natasja8201]

my short workout was 10 minutes of jumping rope XD

[@HelloMoto_]

I would love to hear you talk about how your life has changed since the baby as well as how your relationship has changed/evolved. I don’t think there’s many videos about this and it’ll be nice to hear it from you :) thank you

[@melissa11.11]

Aww, I hope Mint feels better. Natural fibers, purees like: pea, avocado, sweet potatoes, pumpkin..etc. can help move things along. Sometimes potatoes, cheese, bananas, rice cereal, pasta can cause backups. I'm sure she'll be fine soon enough xoxo ❤

[@marychas8862]

Haven’t seen such a beautiful mom before😍Can’t believe that you handle the motherhood and stay as gorgeous as before👏🏻

[@keschmesch]

Its her job

[@tabathascheipe3154]

You mentioned giving Mint beans. Depending on the the type it can be very very upsetting to little ones stomachs sometimes for over a day or two. Just thought I’d mention it. I hope she’s feeling better!❤️

[@Letsmarchishere]

True

[@julek.7039]

Dear Romee, I felt you sooooo much when you talked about the evenings when you just want to have some time on your own but also know you won‘t get a lot of sleep and should go sleeping as early as possible. I have the same struggle at the moment and yet don’t excatly know how to solve that Dilemma. Both sleep and me-time are so important to be able to stay strong everyday for being loving and caring moms. I really love your vlogs every week, you often talk about the same Things I struggle with at the same time so Thank you so much for Sharing!❤️

[@yazz3245]

Hi Romee, a tip to help Mint with her constipation: put some dates in water for an hour, and give her the water to drink. Magic! Also plums can help just make sure they’re not sour.

[@suonona5352]

I second this comment; prunes(regular or juice) also work like a charm for constipation. It's what my pediatrician recommended to my mom when I had terrible tummy aches as a little kid

[@evalopez189]

Plum juice 👌

[@katepadilla]

I've also found pear juice to help with constipation.

[@jarasimonson4040]

Hey! Just wrote this pretty much in Dutch :)

[@realtalk675]

Thats a good tip thankss eating vigs helps too but not for a baby

[@madlyn792]

I was so happy to see this vlog, you guys are a breath of fresh air!! Romee you are such a beautiful mom, and Mint is so cute! I know you are a very busy momma but please keep making more vlogs. God bless this family.

[@kennalime5644]

Romee getting fully vaccinated, saying what she doesn´t like about other "influencers" that create too much hype and mentioning the ones that use very few blueberries!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!

[@blondeprincess2101]

5 blueberries 😂 so glad I'm not the only one to use nearly a punnet lol . I love seeing both vlogs in Dutch and English it's nice hear you in your natural setting and when you both speak English and not sure about a word it's very endearing . I hope Mint is feeling better xx

[@kaylabruner1045]

Thank you for blessing us with seeing Mint's face -- she is SO freaking cute

Don't worry, Romee! 🥺 we love everything and anything you put in your videos coz you're genuine in everything you do and we can see it and feel it so, it's never boring watching you but, always fun and relaxing 🥰 Love, from Algeria 💜

[@friedajansma816]

What really helped for my kids with ‘tummy ache’ is biokult (for infants) powder in their food. It is a probiotica, I gave it them everyday. Take care💕

[@claudiat.846]

I would like to know, when you realized, you deeply love each other and how you stay a couple, despite being parents etc...Love you!! 🥰

[@mariastathopoulos782]

My little boy struggled with constipation when he transitioned to solids. It was SO hard! I would highly recommend pear, prune (soak prunes in boiling water) and ground clove purée. It seriously works so well. Also, biogaia probiotic drops. 🤗💜

[@jessicagarretson9756]

As an expecting mother I appreciate all the mint content! I’d love to know what your newborn, too baby essentials were for Mint; what worked for you versus what didn’t. You’re great parents!!!

[@lexiewart674]

Will we get a house tour when it’s finished? Is that too invasive?

This video washed my soul with warm water as a young working mom myself❤ love your authenticity both of you!❤

[@alyz8376]

What i love about romee is she is one of the most successful models out there but she is so relatable !!! Is like watching your sister or your best friend ❤

[@jaenongbet]

When Laurens said that some people did not like the Dutch vlog I disagree because I like any video of you guys and I watch everything and I feel nothing but love watching your family ❤️

[@eliivanova8623]

Hi Romee I love your channel. You and your lovely family are such an inspiration! I have been doing your exercises for the last 3 years and I have managed to transform my body to a big extent to an angel style body (of course, not so skinny, but the shape is a lot alike). Keep up doing what you do, and good luck with everything!

[@Alinanais]

watching this while eating a bowl full of yogurt chia and lots of blueberries, a bit of honey...you are great Romee, you are a very good mother and it will get easier, I promise...I was there and I remember how I felt my life was on stop and now miss those moments! big hugs

[@anjfaustino7594]

I love your Nederlands vlogs because it helps me learn the language more since I am studying it as of the moment

[@SamElle]

mint is growing up so so quickly!!!! ahhhh you're such an amazing parent and I really aspire to be like you!!

[@NaeReads4Utube]

Thank you so much for the new video. We love all the videos whether in Dutch or English. You guys are the best looking family. Mint is such a doll!! I love seeing you guys at work and seeing your interactions with mint. Whats going on with your house!! Laurents and Romee are Gorgeous!! I also love seeing food vlogs from ya'll.

[@Abe-rz1nm]

Stomachache and tummyache is the same - but we use 'tummyache' as more informal, like if you are talking to kids. Your English is near perfect so don't worry! Plus yes I use a good cup of blueberries each time too!

[@maraburton2629]

I’m just imagining.... Romee: yes we’re looking to transition her into daycare because I travel a lot for work Daycare worker: oh what do you do Romee: oh I’m just a Victoria’s Secret supermodel

[@Nemixs21]

I love it how the show that difficult season when babies do not want to go to sleep! Both of them are great parents! Both of you are doing a great job. Romee, when my son turned 9 months I was so tired as he was waking up just like your baby and so finally I listened to my mom and I left my baby cry at night for two nights and after that my baby was sleeping 12 hours! Anyways, I am not saying that this is what you should do or anything like that , but I just wanted to share my story. :)

[@melissawoodman1655]

I dont speak dutch so for me english is best cause its sooo sweet and entertaining when you guys try to work out the language💕whats really great and fun is just a whole lot of family, work… maby more of laurens and bub aswell… conversation between you too with mint! Like anything is great, i could watch for 1hr…. Its natural, sweet and funny and so lovely to watch you guys mucking around because you are genuine and not trying to be something other than the darling family you are and that makes me happy to watch everything you both do!!!! Lots of hubby and mint is good too🙏🏻👍🏻

[@jules.iiiiii]

love this kind of video! dutch videos once in a while are fun, but english videos are just easier to watch.

[@user-pe2yx9kt4e]

9:51 Ahh I have wondered about that for years!!! Was so surprised by it too!! Thank you for bringing it up. I like your method, and would totally do the same :) tbh if I use something like chia seeds I don’t even use a spoon anymore, I just pour them in. I think putting more fruit in is healthier anyways. That was how my parents raised me. We would eat quite a lot of fruit. Quicker to just wash it all at once and throw it in a bowl too.

[@zakcooked325]

Romee was defs born to be a mom! Aw, mama Romee and papa Lau

[@たなかはお-k2b]

your so honest about the mom and dad duty.i have a beautiful toddler too and parenting is full of love and joyful but sometimes really tiring and you just want some time for yourself.

[@enkhzulzand-ochir1064]

You guys are as real as you guys can be. I am personally so proud of you guys. My eldest baby was waking up so often at night too. I really do know the lack of sleep experience myself. Beautiful baby Mint would be sleeping well very soon. As long as she starts walking she is going to be so tired and wont be waking up so often at night 🥰😘😘😘

Some questions for you guys from someone in the US: ps love you guys! -have you spent time in the US since covid? I know you guys split a lot of your time pre-covid. -what has the schedule between Laurens and Romee been with Mint/does one person spend more time at home? -will Mint learn Dutch and English? -when do you think your house will be done? -how has your house process been so far? So much love for you guys!☺️❤️

Hi Romee, you are my all-time favorite model/influencer/vlogger !!! Please do a vlog about modelling&travelling and how are your expenses covered (who pays for airline tickets (first-class or economy class), hotels (5*-4*-etc.) in general which expenses are covered by the company/agency who hired you and which are covered by you. How are you getting paid, like by the hour or by day etc. What kind of clothes can you keep? Who pays for the dinners, hair&make-up.....etc. A second vlog I really would like to see from you is a vlog about the weight loss diet you have followed to get in shape ( because you mentioned that when you were a young model you have struggled with your weight). Thank you very very much, and always be so positive as you are now!!!

[@allysazarah9208]

For constipation I find that any fruit that starts with P will help them poop. When my 3 kids (4, 2.5 and 7 months) are constipated I puree up some pears, or prunes, or papaya. Anything with more fiber helps and I cut out the dairy for a couple days especially cheese. I also don't give too much bread, pasta, rice etc for a week or two.

[@emilyribnicky9410]

Prune juice helped my babies a little bit with constipation but I just found out about Milk of Magnesia and it works so much better! You can get it at any regular pharmacy. I give my baby 2.5 ml when she’s very unhappy and pushing and can’t poop and it works like magic. It makes her poop within a few hours and then it almost unplugs her- she goes like three more times and is so happy! Hope this helps!

[@marlene55527]

[@lorenarodriguezdiez8349]

Hi Romee! We had the exact same thing with our baby at the same age. No worries! It passes quickly. The issue is that at thesame time she tries to push to poop, she doesnt yet ubderstand to relax her sfinter...so she cant poop and that is very frustrating. But they learn quick, you will see :) In the meantime, when you see she is trying, you can help her rising her knees to her tummy, or holding her with her knees up

[@xxSweetsasxx]
