Carys literally just gave birth to THE most perfect baby girl, is THE best mother & looks THAT good? What a freaking warrior queen😩😍💖

[@Smophify]

All babies are perfect 🥰🥰🥰

[@jjm3009]

James was so right when he said no asks carys how she feels about James body and how it’s changed why do people ask about how James feels about Carys’s body? He’s such a genuine guy and I just love them both so much.

[@Imogenhorton.]

Your body is amazing and YOU are amazing! xxxxxx

[@laurarussellx]

I can't to see you beautiful baby and I am subscribed to your channel

[@andersgabriel3]

I guess I am kind of randomly asking but does anyone know of a good site to watch newly released movies online ?

[@sophiewilson1336]

Amber looks so much like James!!! She’s beautiful!!!💜

[@lilyellacb]

She’s so so cute isn’t she🥺

[@jamescarter8542]

Am I the only one that thinks she’s Carys’ double 🥺💖

[@jodiejarvis8055]

@@jamescarter8542 I see carys so much too

[@gracebeas_177]

Carys looks so cute in that headband

[@kirstyhendry7782]

James is so supportive of you and your body!!🥺 the way he smiles when you talk about your body being magical... ugh, boys in the back take notes💓

[@ellie7952]

I can't picture them without Amber now!!!

[@GeekChick6]

Cracking up at Carys saying “is doggy the actual name of the position” in a serious voice 😅😅😅😅

[@keirapattison3493]

The way James’ face dropped when he thought she spent £90 on a yoga mat 😂

[@98emochick]

Watching this in front of my 4 year old and now he keeps telling me, the man(James) needs to put the lasagna in the oven 😂

[@aliced-j9576]

I found the whole lasagna saga way too entertaining 😅

[@abieli6012]

This made me chuckle😂😂

[@BellaBella284]

Carys seems like she’s grown so much in confidence since becoming a mum, it’s so lovely to see. Side note on the age gap thing, smaller age gaps might be harder when they’re younger but we have a 4.5 year age gap and I feel like our older child misses out sometimes because we still have a toddler. I wish we’d had a smaller age gap and they had similar interests (although they really love each other).

[@nalves6505]

Funny you feel that way, I'm expecting my first and I've always thought that having a 3/4 year gap would be better than having them back to back, it seems so exhausting on the parents and on the development on the older one...

[@BellaBella284]

@@nalves6505 I definitely think it’s harder having them closer together when they’re smaller. It’s just that I feel if they’re closer together you get that part out of the way all at once then when they’re bigger (the part of childhood they’ll remember anyway) you can be doing fun things all together. Getting out and about isn’t the same with a baby/toddler too. It’s probably a case of ‘grass is greener’ though. There’s definitely pros and cons but my friend had her first the same time as me and her second 20 months later and her kids like the same things and they can all do things as a family without having to think about the baby/toddler stage because her kids are more grown up. Rambling now, definitely pros and cons :)

[@leannepayne4081]

Just want to say one more thing: Everyone is different. I breastfed both of my kids, and I got my period back 2 months after giving birth. My sister is the same. My sister in law is period free for about a year after giving birth. We all breastfed. Also, you can get pregnant while breastfeeding. I got pregnant about 9 months after giving birth while I was breastfeeding. My mom did the same. It just varies person to person.

[@anni_helli]

I think Mama doctor Jones had a Video about breastfeeding and getting pregnant. She sad something like you have to breastfeed at least every 4 hours no period and a few other things

[@Alyssa-io9gj]

I’d love to see you do a glitter stretch mark photo shoot!

[@alessiatrabucco9725]

Omg yes!!!

[@gemmarose5185]

the way James smiles at amber every time he looks at her is adorable

[@sofiakara22]

The way you both still ensure Mila knows she's loved just melts my heart 😭 she's such a gorgeous dog, I'm obsessed with her! Amber is a doll, she's so cute!

Yes about the swelling... it’s been 22+ years since my youngest was born and it literally felt like I had balls 🙄😂

[@busybee173]

I always remember my health visitor saying, lots of people will give you advice/old wife tales, just say thank you very much and go with your instinct you know your baby better than anyone 🐝

i love a classic james and carys q&a!!! love you guys, you’re the best parents to the cutest baby everrrr🤍🤍🤍🤍

[@SkyLight-yv9ui]

James is such a sweetheart!! Love seeing the dad side of him

[@naomismith4224]

Carys is so stunning and glowing and you guys are smashing parenting, baby amber is adorable xx

[@carried1113]

So proud of how honest you are. I am sure you are helping a lot of people who may be afraid to ask about things you have addressed.

[@ffiontill5924]

James is honestly such a pure good person it’s so lovely to see such a wonderful family! Creating more wonderful humans to make the world a kinder more compassionate place to be. Love you guys x

[@poppyfailes1971]

It is so amazing to see how you’re growing as a couple and how you’re both just glowing with confidence and being so honest with us all🥰 just makes such a difference for you to not dance around the subject and try and pretend everything happens perfectly etc. I love you 3 so so much!!!!

[@chloeclark5459]

I love the fact that you’re so respective of every other person and how their journey might be but it also upsets me that you feel the need to explain yourselves. You’re both doing amazing and you know your baby more than anyone, just keep doing what you’re doing and she’ll turn out amazing ❤️

[@brittanyclemons6457]

As a women who has questions and fears about pregnancy I love your honesty and transparency in your journey. There's so many things that I think all women go through that no one wants to talk about and so many women think they r alone in their experience. It's so beautiful ❤

[@lilyellacb]

I clicked on this faster than they could say hello guys!!😂You’re both glowing🥺Carys that headband is stunning🤩

[@bethkrehn979]

That is the best thing to do, make the noises, run the vacuum, washer, drier, and dishwasher. I love you guys so much.

[@dionbird137]

My (half) sister from my dads first marriage is 15 years older than me. She is my best friend & we know each other inside out, we speak everyday and I spent a lot of time in hers (in Cardiff) helping out with my nephews & nieces. It’s the best! So don’t worry about any age gap! Love you both & baby Amber is so beautiful 💗🥰xx

[@paxtonmraz6939]

I’m just so happy for them I can’t explain it in words. Their joy and excitement just makes me so thankful for them and their little family. And now I’m so looking forward to having my own little family in the future.

You can still get pregnant whilst breastfeeding 😊

you guys are so open and I love it, thankyou for normalising talking about all these topics 💞💞

Just sat down for my lunch break! Perfect timing, love you guys💕

[@rachelguthrie3474]

This is sooo cute!!! Your relationship seems stronger than ever and Carys you have that bad ass mama confidence that is so lovely to see ❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺

[@JessicaCheape]

So refreshing to hear you both talking so openly about your experiences and even just the body confidence. I stand by my previous comment that Carys should be everyone’s body confidence guru! 😊

[@kaygodden6330]

I agree with james about kids being closer together in age, defo has such a positive impact on the relationship between them I think. Love you both x

[@veronicasvlogs96]

I love this video so much! Your honesty & positivity is what the world needs 💖 Such a great couple 🥰 Also, your headband is so cute 🧡

[@charlotteesmith7194]

James is actually hilarious, every video he just seems more and more humours and comfortable, you both bounce off eachother so well & are a true inspiration for the young generation. My boyfriend and I have religiously watched your pregnancy journey and cannot wait to follow along as baby amber grows up 🥰😇🤩

Clicked so fast! Just the distraction I needed 39 weeks myself and currently possibly in early labour 🥳🥳🥳

Good luck 💕

Good luck!💞

[@creepingjesus88]

I legit LOVE how yous two talk about something, even if you don’t have anything to say. I didn’t realise how the body was after birth never mind my partner! It can be horrific thinking that’s how your body is on your own without knowing it’s the norm. Yous are doing more for schools than schools are. Thank you so so much 🙏

[@missbrownskin0]

I think it’s great that you both treat the day like a day and night like a night. Love it!! Carys also seems so much more sure and confident with herself and what she is saying. Love it! X

[@shanbazjojo]

Absolutely loved this Q&A❤️ Thankyou for being so open and honest☺️

[@ffiontill5924]

Yes appreciate your body, you don’t have to love it 24/7 but your body got you through a pandemic! AND a pregnancy?! Incredible!! And it gets you through everyday too. Sending so much love to you all xx

[@hannahstewart1191]

You both are like a breath of fresh air, so enjoyable to watch!! Little Amber is also very adorable x

[@tinahampton1318]

Please don’t believe that you can’t get pregnant when breast feeding it’s very much an old wives tale, I know several people who’ve ended up with new baby while nursing! You’re all amazing and baby amber is perfect! ❤️❤️

[@mathilda12]

You can literally see how in love James and carys are! It’s soooo lovely ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Olivia-kc2vc]

I find it so refreshing to see you both laughing, joking and still being obsessed with eachother even after having the baby, I think a lot of marriages can struggle with the change and they do say ‘a baby either makes or breaks you’ and I truly think you were born to look after this baby, and future babies, remember to keep your relationship as ‘Carys and James’ as well as mum and dad 🤍✨

[@skylahgoodwin9970]

Just how positive you guys are is so beautiful, I’m a soon mummy to be, with all the emotions you guys really help me feel happy just by watching you guys ❤️ amber is beautiful congratulations again xox

[@emmastirling9369]

Love you you guys and I love how being parents just makes me glow 💕 Amber really is beautiful xx

[@lesliemarin5424]

Thanks so much again for being soooo honest with your Q&A like usual. Super helpful ☺️

[@jasminemoss3783]

i feel like James and Carys have gone back to younger them again, its soooo cute!!! such a happy little family and i'm so here for it

[@PelekanNest]

So pleased for Carys and James that Amber is such an easy baby, and that they've had such a lovely newborn time, but just want to give a heads up to anyone on here expecting a baby that it may not be like that! I was under the impression that newborns generally were so sleepy and calm, but our daughter had colic, and the first 3ish months of her life were so incredibly difficult. I was feeding constantly round the clock, and she screamed aaaall the time! I couldn't set her down to even go to the bathroom without her screaming 🙈 it was so hard. And I'm listening to Carys and James talk about how they were shocked at how little crying there's been etc and am just like, "that was not my experience at aaaall!" And I was just so unprepared for it. So just want to put that out there! But fingers crossed for happy calm babies for everyone expecting! 😂

[@LBRach]

After all 4 of my babies I got my period 4 weeks after my bleeding had stopped. I was breastfeeding. Some women don’t have periods. But you can get pregnant while breastfeeding so you will need contraception. Xx And yes it’s normal to be very swollen and bruised down there.xx

[@labradormom3656]

Same for me. Fully breastfed and periods came back after a month, bang on time every month. I felt a bit cheated 😂😂

[@maisiemanfield]

Carys’ sassy-ness is giving me life!! I loved this! 😂😍

[@evamarie7938]

20:24 the sass!

[@kerrywood407]

With your tear then having stitches that would cause some extra swelling. It’s lovely to see you both looking so well and happy. Your doing fab xxx

[@chelsealevaiyaakoubi1781]

I literally had to rewind this back at the “report back” I am crying 😂😂😂 so funny!! You look amazing. Your both amazing parents and people xxx

[@user-wj8ng7yr6d]

You both are amazing first time parents, love seeing you both together with Amber. Thankyou for being so honest with answers, not enough people are honest with life after a baby.

Love the headband Carys!! So precious that it matches Miss Ambers little pants 🥰🥰

[@amberd1430]

Oh my goodness!!! The swelling!!! I had a second degree tear and episiotomy and WOAAAH no one ever told me about the swelling after. Totally feel you on that one🤣🤣

So gorgeous watching you both looking so happy and natural first time parents. I have a six week old and he’s my first baby and YES to the swelling - Jesus! 😅 it was so hard to fathom what was going on down there, notice any stitches etc as I was so swollen 🤯 but I was amazed how quickly I recovered... you’re both doing amazing x

[@daisydalabrugv1262]

You are the best mother your daughter can have. All mothers are the best for their child. Nobodys perfect and can do everything but we do the best we can for our babies❤️

[@bradiemitch]

Carys you look absolutely gorgeous! You guys are such amazing parents 🤍

[@caitlinmartin3233]

Thank you for being so lovely and saying a fed baby is best. There’s so much judgement surrounding breastfeeding and I worry about it for one day when I have a child. My mum and Nan couldn’t breast feed so it’s highly likely I won’t be able to either so it’s great for you to speak about that xx

[@madster.]

I'm a longtime sub that doesn't comment a lot, but I really want to extend a sincere congratulations to the both of you. I've watched all of your videos since beautiful Amber entered the world and you two seem to be made for parenthood. You're doing amazing, I am so over the moon happy for you, and I am grateful that you have allowed us to see her ❤ she is perfection and I wish you three all the blessings in the world.

I must say carys and James seem SO happy and carys is GLOWING! Love it! Also my brother and I are 10 years apart and we are the best of friends. My mom had my 2 brothers 2 years apart and they don’t even talk now. So age gap really doesn’t matter.

[@sophdear8245]

[@desireejohnson4947]

I'm laughing so hard 🤣 You two crack me up!! "Stretch marks are sexy" I always thought so too but the "ex now" never thought so. Screw him! 😉😁😆

[@lisalu3994]

I didnt tear with my 2nd and walked out of the hospital 8 hrs after giving birth in the ambulance on the way there. Each birth can be different so don't worry that you'll end up with a tear if you choose to have anymore children.

[@ffiontill5924]

Yay an upload. Just want to say you guys are doing amazing! And keeping up with socials too like how?? Such a beautiful family! I heard about the quiet thing and it makes total sense cause if you think, Amber was in your belly and could hear everything, your heartbeat and all the noise outside too and all the other ongoings in the human body so I have heard that it’s recommended to just go about normal day to day activities and not quiet. xx
