GOT YOUR TOES | VLOGMAS

[@AranelJawbreaker]

My mum got back to work after a week I was born. My grandparents were around since day , they picked me up from school everyday. I loved being with them and I still had plenty of time with my parents. And I guess I just learned from the start that people have jobs and things to do. And I think I grew to be a decent human being. Don't ever feel bad cause you need someone to look after your child! We all need a bit of time to ourselfs and to get things done were kids are not too handy to have around. From what I see (which is just so little of you daily life) I think you're doing brilliant.

[@samanthasea7]

My grandparents were such a huge part of my life and it made me who I am today. don't ever feel guilty about having others take care of Delilah!

[@smileyy728]

Oh my god I feel like a proud auntie seeing Delilah grow so much day by day. It's so cute how she just wants to explore everything now.

[@rosierose5735]

It's vital you have time away! The relationship between children and grandparents/aunts and uncles is precious! It's so special for grandparents to have that time alone, it's like having their own children back as babies but without the hard work! Also as parents you need time to recharge and reconnect! You are not leaving her for days! She's gorgeous, shes a delight!

[@Sarahr98998]

I agree! My brother and sister-in-law just went on a quick trip and left my 6 month old nephew with my parents. We had SO much fun having one-on-one time with him!

[@JustifiedJJ]

You've really got this mum thing down! Especially for a relatively young mum, you seem so confident on what is best for Delilah. You go girl! xx

[@TaylerNorrie]

I love the way your natural hair looks with your bob!

[@shananicoletaylor3924]

It must be so hard being a first time mum on youtube, especially taking part in things like Vlogmas. Rhiannon, no one here is judging your parenting skills, so please don't worry about explaining to us why you do things. If Delilah is watching TV, she's simply watching TV! We all know you well enough to know how active you are with her, and that you don't just dump her in front of the TV for hours on end :) I have so much respect for you to be able to show your new family off like this and not letting the negative comments on your parenting skills affect you. You're doing an amazing job! xo

[@EmzieBelle]

She's a dead ringer for Doug! I'm so excited to see her grow up and change!!!:)

[@marouamia]

i've got a love/hate relationship with vlogmas. because i get so used to watching my favourite youtubers every day. that i don't know what to do with my life after it ends. 😂😭

[@Marina-cq2yt]

woah, you after the shower with the 'scruffy' hair was really pretty! I think beach wavy hair suits you so well! and of course you need time for yourself & also time to like, clean/do laundry/go shopping etc :p Just like you said; happy mom = happy baby.

[@amixeblu]

Don't apologize for leaving her with her grandparents! ;) I went to my grandparents since I was 3 months and my mom's maternity leave ended (she was a full-time working mom all her life). So yeah. ;)

[@MsCherylB183]

Delilah is so cute!!! Xmas is amazing when kids come along xx

[@MsCherylB183]

She may be on the edge of teething... Have u tried giving her a bit of baby paracetamol when she is unsettled to see if that helps? Only a suggestion xxx

[@nikkimaltby]

It's lovely to see all the development in Delilah especially as she is now reaching for the toys. I totally agree with your point on how to parent, it's your baby you do what's best for you. I always look forward to your vlogs and love seeing your little family

[@alishaallkins5838]

saved the best vlogmas til last! :)

[@BeckyMD26]

You can tell that you and Delilah are getting more sleep, you look a lot more refreshed!xxx

[@jadecyr9164]

Hey, Rhiannon! I'm loving these videos with Delilah. My baby sister was born back in September, and I'm her primary babysitter. Watching you in your adventures in motherhood have been so informative with baby development. She also has a blast when she sees Delilah on the screen. I hope you, Doug, and Delilah have a great holiday!

[@flowerbreanna]

I've been so excited for this!!! Delilah's first christmas is going to be so magical!

[@saggiorpiioxgalaxy]

My my my Delilah 😍 She is sooo adorable, even her little breathy noises are so adorable. As long as parents give their babies a secure & intimate connection as primary caregivers, I agree that it's okay to leave your baby with people you trust. All of us need to catch a breath to recharge.

[@rachelginther4200]

SO HAPPY you are doing vlogmas. I so love your videos!!! And Delilah is the freaking cutest!

[@chibimena]

D is such a little beauty. I'm obsessed!

[@Khvost_]

People often lie when they say that someone else's children at this young age look pretty, but Delilah actually looks very pretty!

[@georginadrake4050]

So sad that you had to explain the babysitting situation to those that don't understand 😕 I couldn't agree more with your reasons though and it's even been proven to be beneficial for mum and baby to have short breaks from each other from a couple of months old onwards! Stick to your guns Rhiannon, you're doing great! ❤️

[@RhiannonAshleeVlogs]

+Georgina Drake I just wanted to get my point across to other mums who may be made to feel guilty :)

[@flymeaway7.]

I love seeing Delilah grow through the vlogs!! I am already obsessed with vlogmas! :)))

[@palindromee]

When I was born my mum went back to work really soon so I was with my nan and grandad from a really early age, it continued as I grew older and 19 years later I am still so incredibly close to my nan and grandad and see them at least once a week even if it's a Skype call from uni. Please please please don't feel like you have to justify your parents looking after her, or babysitting at all for that matter. It's about finding a balance with babysitting and the bond between grandparents and a child is so so important, I'd be so lost without mine ❤️

[@irishrose0211]

I just want you to know I always look forward to your vlogs! I had a baby like 2-3 weeks before you and it feels like I'm talking with a friend sometimes when I listen to you.

[@umbumgo]

Loving these videos! Loving vlogmas so far- hope I can keep up xx

[@harpreetd9490]

not sure if you have already but look at a book called Wonder Weeks. Or there's an app, chances are Delilah has gone through a leap and she's come out the other end more developed ie. happier on her own etc. it's amazing and I could apply every leap to my little boy.

[@annalauraamenta]

She's seriously the CUTEST!!

[@DearlittleDaisy]

Ohhhhh she's such a little cutie. I'm so excited to watch all your vlogmas videos! xxx

[@chrissy817]

I totally agree with what you said about babysitters! totally gives them more confidence to start preschool and such:)

[@carolinelapointe7144]

I'm so happy for vlogmas! Delilah is growing so fast, it's amazing.

[@TheLittlestDarlings]

Screen time is the best babysitter! Never worry about "too much" screentime! 😂it's the only way I get editing done 🙈 Iggle piggle Is the worst though!

[@karlabonilla800]

So happy for how things are going for you! My brother had his baby when he was 18 and I would help him all the time with babysitting and feeding since he worked loads. Don't ever feel bad for taking a break and a breather, it's a massive responsibility and job to take care of another human life 😊 You are doing an amazing job and we're all proud Xx

[@DCosta98]

I don't have words to explain what I feeling when I see your videos, idk you are so cute, natural and truly happy.. it's lovely the way you live, the family you have and the love that you pass to us. So, really thank you for making my days more special and very cutie with your lovely baby, (she have mosttttt part of her face similar to the dad, I think but the eyes are definitely yours, the way she look's to everyone and everything) So idk I just love this channel, love you, your family and your way to live. So, kisses from Portugal with so much love ❤️

[@RhiannonAshleeVlogs]

+Daniela Costa thank you so much 😘

[@emam.9269]

You + V Neck T-shirts = a match made in heaven

[@Lisejust]

Your vlogs are seriously the best videos in my subscription box! I love your little family! So sweet and beautiful!

[@spenc799]

Delilah is such a cutie! Her checks look like she stuffed them with food like a little chipmunk. I'm so happy that you're doing vlogmas. Woooooo!

[@elizabethstrain8334]

your natural hair is so beautiful omg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@1871kezza]

Rhiannon do not ever feel that you need to justify anything you're doing as a parent. What ever you choose to do or how you are with Delilah is completely you decision. Been watching your vlogs for a while and as a new mummy I find comfort in seeing a fellow new mummy going through the same daily struggles and delights as myself. It's so awful to hear that you and Doug receive nasty comments, people need to just chill the fuck out. Delilah is absolutely gorgeous 😘Wishing you and your family a lovely Christmas and new year.

[@VanishekThe]

omg your natural hair is so beautiful! I love that waves :)

[@theshoebridgess]

Delilahs hairs getting so long & fluffy, I love it!!! x

[@thatsmystyle3648]

Completely agree with everything that you were saying about babysitting. Each to their own, but I personally I find it so important to have time way from Mila as well, like you said it really is refreshing and I feel like it makes me a better mum. It should never be something that we should feel guilty about, especially as it's important to give relatives special bonding time with them as well. Enjoying your Vlogmas so much! Also how do you manage it all? I can hardly find time to get one blog post up a week!

[@KylaPlanet]

Love an impromptu haul!

[@liv91]

My mum had to go back to work after a few weeks when I was born as she just couldn't afford not to. I spent a lot of time with my grandad and grandma and grandad. You do what you do, like you said!

[@laurenwestwood6061]

She's getting so big now, what a cutie. 😘❤️

[@695loubie]

That purple dress for Delilah is adorable!

[@milikoshki]

Delilah is so cute!! It must be amazing to watch her personality grow each day :)

[@MrsKatieQ]

Ahh I'm loving all these videos! Yay

[@ellashipley96]

Her eyes are gorgeous! Excited for your vlogmas vlogs xx

[@superduperstrange899]

Omg her little leg rolls. Adorable

[@reneminii]

Your hair looks so nice wavy/natural!! I'm so jealous! Xo

[@eliFreakland]

you guys literally have the most adorable baby ever like goddamn

[@mimiteen15]

I absolutely love your new mom advice, I find it's a good idea to get Delilah babysat so you can get some alone time for a bit. My sister had my nephew 5 months ago and she finds it hard leaving him alone with anyone. She started recently leaving him with my mom or myself for a bit so he can get use to being looked at by other family members. 😊❤ I found ways to entertainment the little one and it was fine even if he started crying for a bit.

[@tanyahogben]

My Marley who is 2 now, was a terrible sleeper when he was a baby.. at 6 weeks I found out he had acid reflux.. I really hope she starts sleeping better for you. She is such a cute baby!! Makes me so broody! Xx

[@hannahrose5985]

I hate the fact that you always feel the need to justify yourself every time you do something that people might possibly take offence by (like putting her in front of the telly so you can have a cup of coffee). She's your little girl, and you know what's best for her. Besides, anyone can see that you're a sensible caring mum :). Love your vlogs, Delilah is absolutely gorgeous xxx

[@lisadixon8983]

My children have such a lovely bond with my mam and dad, I think it's important for grandparents to spend time with their grandchildren. Delilah seems to be changing and growing so much lately, such a cutie 😍

[@MaisieCorbett]

We've bought a little seat bath thingy, if that makes sense haha, for our little one, but one that you pop into the actual bath rather than a little bath that you can move around :) I love everything that you bought! This is really random but when you're folding D's clothes away and it's on a faster speed, it sounds like the sims noises haha! ON ANOTHER really random note, I love that plant in your bedroom! Where is it from? You need to have a little time to yourself! You're a mummy now but you're also still a human being! I'm glad you're happy with D being babysat with her grandparents, it's lovely for her, for your parents and for YOU! x

[@hannamaria11]

Love your vlogs and am so thankful that you take the time to do vlogmas !

[@Marina-cq2yt]

I love you vlogmas already, I'm so happy that you're doing them :)

[@melissagrindon9074]

My fave vlogmas so far 💕💕💕

[@Aeae11_]

When she's in her push chair maybe try putting a toy in there thats like a book or something that she could do something with such as flipping the pages. Just trying to help with the crying!:) Love you guys!!

[@patkapapatka]

I love your vlogs - they make me so happy and cozy :3 and Delilah is so cute and you are great parents!

[@JordgubbsGlasss]

Im so happy about vlogmas!😍

[@mandododo2]

Loving these vlogs!!!! It makes me feel really cozy watching your everyday life with adorable Delilah

[@primarfacie89]

Don't worry about little D watching tv :) her days are so long, the time spent watching tv is such a small portion of the day

[@MajaJohanssons]

Your thumbnails are killing it!

[@RhiannonAshleeVlogs]

+Maja Johansson :)

[@CPBurgesss]

Have you ever thought about using a dummy? I was sooo against them before I had my son but for times where he was inconsolable or in public it was a life saver!

[@lovingSOhard]

Charlotte Burgess I have been meaning to suggest this the past few vlogs.they are life savers,when the baby is fed changed and still cries it can be a great comforter x

[@RhiannonAshleeVlogs]

+Charlotte Burgess same here! I have tried a few times but she just doesn't like them :/

[@CPBurgesss]

Aw no, what a shame! Poor wee poppet!

[@TheLeni1986]

[@suchetadas9744]

Just in a minute!!! YESSS 😁

[@emmax8834]

You're such an amazing mum rhiannon☺️

[@millieaiton8395]

wheres your necklace from?!? xxx

[@rueroxanne972]

There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with having someone babysitting your child. The parents get a break and as long as the baby is happy and safe and looked after, there is not a problem

[@kimfoley7836]

Delilah is so beautiful! Look at those eyes :)

[@amypalmer2272]

When I was pregnant I said I wasn't EVER going to let her watch tv so young. Now she watches it every day 😂

[@wildmali]

SHES SO CUTE

[@eineohrfeige]

shes definitely got doug's eye shape

[@hadgles9398]

Why do you use these 'sleeping bags'? I'll have a baby and really want to know if it's good.

[@JessIAMM]

Delilah's cheeks will be the death of me!! lol

[@bridgetcatherine7202]

Really enjoyed watching your video. Can I ask where did you buy the toy from that Delilah is playing with on the floor at 17:13 as I really want to get one for my little one. Thanks

[@RhiannonAshleeVlogs]

+Mummy Bee IKEA! her colourful ball and book are also from there :)

[@anacantarero7570]

Love your videos!

[@indicamberr]

omg, I died at that intro xD

[@meudirahmatia]

her eyes are so beautiful

[@Ionavenus]

love !!! thanks for share !!!

[@sakiko__238]

Delilah is soooo kawaii💓

[@missjaadee]

random question, but would you consider getting a tattoo that is related to Delilah?? X

[@noor-pq6uy]

-jadeweekesx x i believe she once said that she's over tattoos and they're not her thing any longer, but i'm not sure.

Delilah is so adorable! :')

[@hollymorton822]

So cute☺️ I had to go to a childminder when I was 6 months old until I was 12. My childminder is like my second mum❤️

[@hollymorton822]

(12 years)

[@learebecca8285]

Cutest baby ever 😍😍😍😍 those lovely, gigantic eyes 💕

[@sanaechaan]

Oh im so early, hi Rhiannon ❤️ sending love from Hungary!

[@Marina-cq2yt]

These sensory classes and things you go to, is that included in UK health care? Like, is that the norm for babys & mamas over there? Or is it something that you pay for and is separate from like, hospital/health care? Like is it a private business? I'd love some of those classes :)

[@RhiannonAshleeVlogs]

+Marina Henriksen I paid for both her massage and sensory classes - usually you can pay for one class or a term of classes which equals around 6 sessions. Some let you have a free taster class before you book on :)

[@Marina-cq2yt]

Rhiannon Ashlee Vlogs That's so great! As far as I know that's not very common in sweden, but I'd wanna do it!

[@lerabollera]

it depends where you live. I took my son to baby massage, baby yoga and many other groups and they were completely free. It just depends on what your local children's centre offers.

[@valeriechaza8947]

are you going to feed her baby food hay that can be a title of vlogmas

[@charlotteandrews6237]

Im in London from the 5th to the 20th of December, would be amazing if you did a meet up ! ( from Australia so not many opportunities to meet you :P ) thanks !

[@helloaanaa]

Sweetest Delilah!💕

[@polab3165]

Can you drink coffee when breastfeeding? Is she still brestfeeding?
