HI EVERYONE!! It has been a MINUTE!! I've missed my KZbin family! My sweet little boy has been taking all my attention and it's been the best season transitioning to Motherhood with him here. Wanted to film a Q&A and catch up with what we've been up to. We also have a new Elevate Beauty Collection Launching Tomorrow!! I added our promo video at the end of this video. I've been working on these Creme Glosses for SO long and am so happy they're finally here! Trying to juggle motherhood and work hasn't been easy, but it's been so wonderful spending every day with Adriel. Let me know what other videos you want to see!

Hi Amanda, congratulations on your baby boy, he is very cute🍼🍼🍼 I purchased your lipsticks several months ago and can’t wait to receive them. I’ll explain, as you don’t ship internationally I had them shipped to my daughter who resides in the US. I can’t wait until January 2024, when she visits so I can finally try the out. Could I make a request of your daily makeup routine and what products you like using now, it would be great. 🥀❤️🌹🌺

The Internet can be a dumpster fire sometimes (or alot tbh) but im really grateful that women are sharing their experiences and ups and down in their journey to and in motherhood. There’s sooo much to learn with every woman’s experience and trials and errors. Im only 24 and not planning to have kids for another 5+ years but I LOVE mom/motherhood content. Another amazing video (as usual) Amanda !!

The internet can be super dark but I'm so thankful for the mothers who shared content bc I've learned a lot! I think it's silly we are expected to act like it's a piece of cake, instead of supporting eachother during the challenge. Challenging isn't bad, it just means hard. It transforms us into our purpose as women and I am SO blessed to have my son. It's the most beautiful journey

4 months postpartum myself and I have a 3 year old, really been in prayer to balance it all, I know God is doing amazing things for my family and His people but definitely having a hard time adjusting sometimes. All glory to God. Happy your back and hear how motherhood has been for you. Need more Christian moms to connect with.

Moms helped me SO much after birth! It's such a journey and every mother's experience is unique. I would be SO tired and I would see Adriel smile at me and I instantly recharged. It's such a wonderful journey. God really refines us and it gives us a glimpse into Jesus love for us.

I was pregnant at the same time two of my sister in laws were pregnant, so everyone called our sons “triplets” Well the oldest one got his 4 month shots and immediately after that he passed during the night. It shook me to my core. The second oldest boy, his mom decided to hold off vaccines until 1 year old after that because of what happened. I decided to proceed with his programmed vaccine schedule because I live in a highly concentrated cosmopolitan city and I would never forgive myself if he caught a preventative disease. He is almost 6 now, on the spectrum, but he always was. In my case, it’s family history related. But I do think that SIDS and the shots have a correlation 😢 I am afraid to have any more kids. The world is so messed up

Amanda, thank you for your courage in discussing the correlation between vaccines and SIDS. Pharmaceutical companies make billions from these so called necessary vaccines, despite the horrific harm caused to babies. Parents need to practicie critical thinking when it comes to what they place in their babies body. As a mother and psychologist, in the last few years post covid we have learnt so much about vaccines those related to covid or common childhood vaccines.

My grandfather was a dr and after I had my first baby he would always tell me belly wraps after birth are the worse thing you could do (yes the support feels amazing) BUT no wraps help your muscles start recovering and supporting everything like they used to. When you use the wrap it take the work out of your body and takes longer for your body to support itself! But to each their own! ❤

@@myfriendmademereadit your welcome hon! maybe hubby can have a sperm analysis done as well, to see if his cells are at a good level. Things can happen when you least expect them to. Also, not sure what type of birth control you were on. (Shot, pill, patch etc.) but it can definitely be a little harder with the shot. I only say that because you don’t have a period for several mos. And hold that same egg. Personally, I was on the pill so I was still having my monthly cycle.. know you are not alone in this process, speaking with your dr about options definitely help. But I have faith god will bless you with a bundle of joy❤️
