MEET OUR BABY + THIRD TRIMESTER RECAP | Q&A

[@merrillgourley1164]

James’s little coos when you’re talking is just the happiest sound ever

[@miriamhamiltoncoronaca5386]

James’ features are so pronounced! Like everything is extra on him. He’s the cutest little man-baby I’ve ever seen!!! I am so happy for you guys.

[@freedom4063]

I wonder who he look like lol

[@KristinJohnss]

We are posting a very special video all about his birth on our channel this week so be on the look out!!!! 😊👼🏼

[@leynamiller]

Can't wait!!

[@macaronmaker0720]

Yay! so exited to watch it! :)

[@annamcbride7124]

Cannot wait!

[@milenaalmeida4063]

Can’t wait! Soooo excited! 🤩

[@jasdenyer9080]

Hoping I don't go into labor before then so I can soak in all the last minute tips/information possible 😅💙 Thank you for sharing all that you have thus far about your pregnancy journey. I hope you know how genuinely beneficial hearing other momma's stories has been for me. 😊

[@flossssssy]

Its so nice to see you again, Kristin! Please don’t feel rushed into a schedule/full return, spend as much time as you’d like with your little bub. We have 9 months maternity leave in the UK

[@fonjadidi]

Daaamn we got 4 months in Australia

[@savannahb.1653]

I got 10 weeks after my c section (that's without the family bonding)

[@mylittlesparks]

In Austria you can get 2 years , maybe even up to 3🙂

[@MaelysCha]

@kayla buoy No way?! Anyone can get a 1 year maternity leave in Canada? It’s up to 16 weeks only here in France 😳

[@ava168]

I’m from Germany, some woman stay home until their kid is 4 lol

[@maliyahjoynortham]

He really does have your eyes! As soon as you turned him towards the camera at the end, there was no doubt! I’m praying for you and your family always & this is such an encouragement to me as a newly preggo mama🥰🤍

[@christine.s04]

Awww! Congrats!

[@maliyahjoynortham]

@@christine.s04 Thank you so much!❤️

[@loveforgood7520]

Congratulations on new member of family!!!

[@maliyahjoynortham]

@@loveforgood7520 Thank you love!🤎

[@alyssawaitt6139]

The groin pain can be whats also called “lightning crotch” lol which is the baby’s head putting pressure on the cervix. Its actually a good thing because its preparing the cervix to thin out for labor/birth!

[@tesluxe]

good to know! I was thinking pelvic girdle pain (I’m having it in my second trimester) but this makes more sense for third trimester!

[@Kaylebfinds]

Yes I think it could be this or the pelvic girdle pain depending on if she is talking about her pelvic bone it’s self I had the worst pelvic BONE pain all throughout all trimesters 😭

[@tesluxe]

@@Kaylebfinds that is awful!! it's such a dull type of pain and one of the worst symptoms. more power to you for managing it 9 months.

[@meaganmccullah8882]

Never been pregnant, but I get lightning crotch with endometriosis, and it stops me in my tracks 💯

[@nataliesoutlet]

missed you!!

[@NellebellovesYAH]

ALL CHILDREN and some CHRISTIANS are about to DISAPPEAR! Jesus revealed that he will RAPTURE / take the children and faithful believers to safety in heaven. Jesus promised he will keep His faithful people from the Hour of Testing / Tribulation because they have kept His Commands (Rev. 3:10). Christians who are truly His will be caught up to meet Him in the air before God sends judgement on this Christ-rejecting world. “For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who remain, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord” (1 Thess. 4:16). Jesus said the Greatest Commandment is this: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind” (Matt. 22:37). The Rapture will likely be disguised as an ALIEN INVASION. DON'T BE DECEIVED! God is Holy and Just, so he has to send judgments and take “vengeance on those who do not know God and on those who do not OBEY the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ” (2 Thess. 2:8). Accept Jesus as your Savior NOW and REPENT for your sins!! We have been living in what the Bible calls ‘The Last Days’ -- “In the last days difficult times will come. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, slanderers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness although they have denied its power” (2 Timothy 3:1-5). -- In Matt. 24 and Luke 21 it says there will be earthquakes & famines in various places. There will be plagues (covid 19), wars, rumors of wars, an increase in lawlessness because the love of many has grown cold. --“See that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray” (Matt. 24:4-5). --“There will be signs in the sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress among nations, in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting from fear and the expectation of the things that are coming upon the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken” (Luke 21:25-26). Psalm 90:10 says a generation is 70 to 80 years. Israel became a nation again in 1948 so it is 73 years old. Jesus gave us the Fig Tree Generation Parable prophesying that the generation that witnesses Israel's rebirth is the generation that will not pass away till the events prophesied in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 are fulfilled (This includes the RAPTURE). Just a Few of the Many Events that will happen in the Last Days: --Jeremiah 51:42 says that Babylon, which is the USA, will be covered with “tumultuous waves”. The USA will be hit by TSUNAMIS! --Jeremiah 50:3 says that a nation north of Babylon, the USA, will make the USA desolate. --There will be meteors that hit earth (Rev. 8:7-11, Matt. 24:29). --Some Christians have had dreams and visions about the rapture happening when a meteor is about to hit earth. Here’s a compilation video of peoples dreams & visions of this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqLKgGRqnLCBgJY --The Antichrist comes into power who will get a fatal head wound but then be healed. He will force everyone to take the Mark on either their hand or forehead (Rev. 14). God warns us to not take the Mark or worship this man. If you refuse the Mark, you will be beheaded (Rev. 20:4). There is a patch coming out to administer the poison instead of a needle. It will be placed on the hand, fulfilling the scripture about the Mark being on the hand. --For 5 months, locusts will sting those who rejected Jesus (Rev. 9). SALVATION IS THROUGH JESUS ONLY (Acts 4:12). We are all sinners in need of a Savior. “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Rom. 3:23). “The wages of sin is death/ Hell, but the gracious gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord” (Rom. 6:23). Jesus provided the way for us to be freed from the penalty of sin. Jesus is God: “He is the image of the invisible God” (Col. 1:15). “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1). “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us” (John 1:14). God came into the flesh as Jesus, lived a sinless life, was crucified on the cross and resurrected 3 days later. Jesus/God had to become a human being in order to redeem human beings. He was tempted in many ways like us but never once sinned. He suffered and died for your sins. It’s the greatest love story of all time. Jesus was the only acceptable sacrifice to appease the wrath of God against sin; he imputed his righteousness to us, so that we can be accepted by God (2 Cor. 5:21). “For it is by grace you have been saved through faith- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8). We are not saved by doing works but by accepting the free gift of salvation through the finished work of Jesus on the cross. When we have his Holy Spirit inside of us, He will produce good works through us to do his Will. “For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them” (Ephesians 2:10). “For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose/fruit” (Philippians 2:13). God is at work in the life of a true born again Christian and we have a responsibility to abide/stay/continue in Christ or wander away and go back to the works of darkness or the lusts of the flesh which will lead to the broad gate - which leads to hell/lake of fire. “Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh” (Galatians 5:16). “The works of the flesh are evident, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God” (Galatians 5:19-21). “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit” (Galatians 5:22-25). Repentance Leads To Salvation according to 2 Corinthians 7:10, “For Godly Sorrow produces repentance leading to Salvation” Repentance is a change of mind, which leads to a change of heart, then a change of will, ultimately resulting in a change of lifestyle! Many have said the “sinner's prayer” with their mouths, which is not biblical, but their mind, hearts and wills have never been changed. Repentance is a daily act of turning from the world to God until we leave this earth, not a one time prayer. Jesus said to come as you are but he did not say to remain as you are. He died for us to be cleansed of our sins, not for us to keep living in our sins. The Lord REQUIRES OBEDIENCE, otherwise we will not receive his Holy Spirit (Acts 5:32). We NEED to turn away from our sins because the Holy Spirit does not and will not dwell in a sin filled, unrepentant person. All those who are saved and have the Holy Spirit, walk in DAILY repentance, in relationship with the Lord, the Holy Spirit convicts of sin and corrects. If anyone can continue in willful sin after receiving Christ and not be grieved and convicted over it, either they never had his Spirit or his Spirit left them. “If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgement and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God” (Heb. 10:26-31). Jesus said that not all who say to him “Lord, Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven. Only those who DO the Will of the father” MANY will say to him on that day “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons and in Your name perform many miracles?” And he will say to them “I never knew you, LEAVE ME, you who practice lawlessness” (Matt. 7:21-23). God said “Sin is lawlessness” (1 John 3:4). Jesus said “If you love me, keep my commandments” (John 14:15). We are resurrected unto newness of life in Christ, not perfection. Sanctification is the process by which God's Spirit changes the heart, mind and soul of a person to do His will in joyful obedience. We undergo the process of sanctification until the day our bodies are glorified at which point we will never sin again. While still in our fleshly bodies, we will stumble and fall on this journey but we need to keep getting up and running to Jesus, praying for deliverance! It’s only by the power of his Holy Spirit that we could EVER overcome and deny sin! “For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age” (Titus 2:11-12) “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous, so that He will forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9-10). “The one who keeps His commandments remains in Him, and He in him” (1 John 3:24). “Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent” (Rev. 3:19).

I can’t get over his HAIR! It looks like he’s wearing a wig for real 🤣 he’s so beautiful and amazing ♥️😭 I want to squish him!

[@annamcbride7124]

James’ little coos are the sweetest! Worlds best and most stylish mom award for sure! He’s got so much hair!

[@juriesnow595]

I’ve been watching you since you were a college girl, seeing you now becoming a mother and holding your child in your arms is such a beautiful thing to see and I feel so happy for you as If you were my friend, thank you for sharing that with us , may you and your family be gifted with life’s biggest joys and never ending bliss ♥️

[@laceycroft4757]

So excited that he is here! 🥰 Little note, I mean this in the absolute sweetest way, you may want to keep an eye on James’ head/neck position in the wrap. It is better for their breathing to have the neck extended a tiny bit to where you can see his face when you look down so that his airway is more open. Just a thought! Love you so much!

[@michaelastubson264]

Ahhh he TOTALLY has your eyes!!! I hope his blue eyes stay!! Seeing him at the end of the video had me 🥺🥺🥺 brb running to my hubby to tell him I need a baby now 😂🥰

[@larissa1770]

Kristin has green eyes! And I think Marcus has green blueish eyes. Do you know what color is James eyes? 🥰

[@lexiesmiski]

I don’t even have a husband but I’m having baby fever 😂

[@sofiaholland.]

I’m 34+5 at the moment and after a really smooth and easy pregnancy so far (no sickness first trimester, very minimal aches or pains at all, relatively high energy for months) the third trimester has literally hit me like a ton of BRICKS. Light headedness and dizzy spells due to my blood pressure randomly dropping, iron levels up and down, no energy at all, no sleep, can’t breathe as I feel so big… genuinely gone from loving pregnancy so much to quite literally counting down the days until it’s over!!! I never thought I would reach this point but my god I can’t wait for baby girl to just evacuate my body now 🤣🤣 it’s such a mind game too because she could literally come in the next few weeks or could even be another 2 months if I go overdue…. Praying to go into labour around 39 weeks tbh! ❤

[@manonymous5628]

The baby noises throughout this video are EVERYTHINGGGG.

[@Oneblessedhome]

"James you're not allowed to be this cute, seriously it's illegal " 😉😘 So cute!!!! He's perfect Kristin 🥰 Just found out we are having a boy 👦💙 can't wait to meet our little one 😊

[@jasdenyer9080]

I'm so unbelievably happy for you! I am due any day now with my little boy, so seeing you with James makes my heart throb with excitement! 💙

[@charitykaptain]

James looks like both of his parents... I wanted to reach out and hold him when he started crying🥺🥰🥰

[@Faith-Ireland]

James’ little head popping out like: mom! Stop talking! I’m trying to sleep!

[@sjaeger1433]

First time mom to be here! I have had groin pain since about 25-28 weeks 😭 I’m 33 now and just used to it hurting 🥲

[@TheLEAprechaun]

I'm so happy you got to take some time off and still really hope you continue to not rush anything and stress yourself out, but I sure did miss you and am so thankful for that little update!! So excited to see James grow!

[@sienahopebruni]

So cool that he was born 7 pounds on the 7 month on the 17th. 7 is a special #! So happy for you 💗💗 god bless you and your new baby

[@thegirlsdorm]

This video brought me to tears at the end! I’m 36 weeks with my first so I’m in the trenches of discomfort haha. I have loved following your journey because you were 10 weeks ahead of me and both of us are having boys. Made me feel like I had a friend in this! Fun fact, we also got married just a few months apart as well!!

[@mckennaknapp8040]

I am 36 weeks tomorrow! It’s been so fun following so many you tubers going though this! Best of luck to you!! 🥰

[@raegan_price]

I’m 38.5 with a boy. We are sooo close!

[@exploringespadrilles6803]

I will be 36 weeks this Thursday! Our due date is Oct. 1st. Really excited to see if we get to enjoy our first baby in September or Oct. I am experiencing swelling in my hands and my knees hurt from the extra weight and swelling.

[@maddievasiliev]

Congratulations all of you! Praying you will all have an easy and fast delivery, and a healthy babe!

[@blakejordan3742]

Okay I’m sure everyone says this but like he literally is the most handsome baby I have ever seen!!!

[@briannenicoleerman]

I love you so much, Kristin and I am SO proud of you. This last year has been so hard for you. So many life changes, so many unexpected events, the accident, the move, getting pregnant, finding a home. Most of those things being so wonderful, but all HUGE life events! And to all happen so back-to-back?! You are truly incredible! I know this last season has been a LOT and I am praying and believing that this next season will be one of REST and REJUVENATION. God is so proud of you and all that you have walked through. ALL that was stolen from you will be returned 100 fold! God bless you and your sweet growing family! Thank you for letting us walk beside you through these ups and downs ♥️

Congrats, James is so adorable. You are the best mom ever and he is so lucky to have you as his mom.

[@breetomlinson5904]

I had TERRIBLE hip pain from the relaxin hormone. I had hip pain the entire time the first pregnancy and at the end with my second. So painful and I also had, Hyperemesis Gravidarum, Diabetes, high blood pressure and preeclampsia with my second. GOD I was so ready to be done lol and then being a parent is SO hard you deff cry a lot because of fear, stress and exhaustion BUT through ALL of that, it's such a freaking BLESSING. Your heart EXPLODES with love for them. It's totally different than any love you'll ever experience.

So I'm a mental health therapist and I saw you posted right before I called back my client and I was so excited the whole session just to watch! Almost like that feeling you get when you're about to have coffee with an old friend you haven't seen in awhile. 🤍☕

[@iaimster11]

James is super adores! Thanks for having him on. My first pregnancy, I had morning sickness the worst. I had it throughout the entire time and water was the one thing that I could not keep down, which made me vomit every single time as well. Thanks for sharing with us your experience and we love you!

[@sabrinachaney3151]

Hi 🤍 whenever you have time, could you film an updated hair care routine and tell us what you’re doing to grow it out? Thanks Kristin 🥰

[@annayates6549]

I’m 35 weeks pregnant right now and having THE WORST groin pain ever! I literally almost cried last night rolling over in bed. I totally understand! The way you described it as doing 100 of those exercises a day is a perfect description

[@emilysueellis]

I’m getting induced Friday and I’m terrified 😭 but also exciteddd!

[@BethThereseReacts]

he definitely has your eyes 💙💙💙

[@jordyngrywacheski4132]

Giving me baby fever to the MAX! You look absolutely stunning, Kirstin, glowing as always. You and Marcus have clearly shown how ready you were for a baby, wow. sending the 3 of you so much love. baby James is so beautiful ❤️

[@christianabultedaob2630]

YES!! It’s called Pelvic Girdle Pain and it’s the WORST!!! Ugh seriously awful pain! I had it the last four months of pregnancy too!

[@kristyharwood400]

He definitely has your eyes, but looks just like Marcus. Perfect mix ✨

[@hannahwilliams2037]

Congrats!! I think that groin pain you’re experiencing is pubic symphysis pain. It’s pretty common, but if you experience it in another pregnancy, a pelvic floor physical therapist can help you out!!

[@snicole6731]

Came here to say this! It usually gets worse with each pregnancy unless you get support with it. There are great exercises that can help and limiting certain positions that make it worse.

[@joannaandrews4780]

What you said around 16min about sticking through and the relief and pressure will be gone and distant me with and you’re so proud I felt like God used you to speak to me and encourage me I’m pregnant spiritually and birthing my destiny and it’s really big so I feel like I’m in my 3rd trimester for that

[@HannahBirzes]

What

[@tessjones5987]

Pure little angel. Precious. Thank you for posting.

[@corinnedeleon5963]

Just want to say SO HAPPY for you & Marcus!! But also wanted to mention if you’re blessed with another pregnancy, seek out a good chiropractor!! I work as a chiropractic assistant and we help pregnant mama’s all the time with prenatal groin pain, low back pain, & sciatica!! all things that are very common in the 3rd trimester. My boss always says “pregnancy & chiropractic go together like peanut butter & jelly” :) chiropractic care throughout pregnancy also helps reduce active labor time exponentially!! praying blessings over this new season of motherhood for you, I already see how happy & natural you are in the role ❤️

[@themessymakeupmama2696]

You're not crazy!!! I know EXACTLY what you're talking about with the groin pain. I'm so sorry you experienced that. It's miserable.

[@Amy-oc2ui]

Congratulations!!! James is so cute! He really does look like Marcus with Kristin eyes.

[@gnidlaps21s11]

Your family is so beautiful and blessed!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@daniahammoud5654]

The pain you experienced sounds like pregnancy-related pelvic girdle pain (PGP) or symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD). PGP is a collection of uncomfortable symptoms caused by a stiffness of your pelvic joints or the joints moving unevenly at either the back or front of your pelvis.

[@jeanniegusme9228]

Sweet baby! My nephew looked like his mom for the first 7 years of his life but as he's gotten older he's starting to look more like my brother lol so James might pull a fast one and look just like you later! 😍 Either way, beautiful beautiful baby boy! Congratulations!!

[@ChicReal]

Baby James is absolutely ADORABLE! Your precious little peanut definitely has your eyes but I can see that he has some features of Marcus too. It truly touched my heart when you mentioned that you're not at all concerned about having stretch marks because you attribute it to the joy and blessing of giving birth to baby James. It's so refreshing to hear and see KZbin influencers like yourself being REAL and humble. I'm super happy for you guys. Much Love. God bless y'all. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻

[@maruber8606]

O myyyyyyyyy whattt!!!!!! I wasnt expecting THIS.Out of nowere .A BABY!!!

[@laurenkinnear5141]

So good to see you back!!! You are glowing, Kristin! Love you sweet baby James!

[@tarawiperi]

Yes the groin pain is a killer. For me it didn’t so much hurt with my first baby but my second and third yes. It’s like the more children you have the more sensitive you get down there and the more weight down there the more it hurts. Pregnancy isn’t a walk in the park that’s for sure.

[@mikalacatherine]

The worst pain I’ve had for all 3 of my full term pregnancies has been crotch pain. Mainly in the 3rd trimester. Feels like that whole area is ripping open depending on how I move. I think gravity and swelling just makes everything so much more painful down there. You’re not alone!

[@meganlanham25]

You likely had Pubic Symphysis Dysfunction! I called it “lightning crotch” before I found out what it really was lol. I had it with both of my pregnancies, but a pelvic floor physical therapist helped me relieve my pain enough to make it manageable

[@meganhanawalt4397]

No one tells you about lightning crotch pain before you get pregnant lol I have it once in a while too at 32 weeks!

[@beccamason5150]

🙋‍♀️I had terrible groin/hip pain in the 3rd trimester!! I ended up seeing a prenatal chiropractor which was very helpful.

[@Hillcountry_Homemaker]

Awww way to go mama!! Nursing like a champ and seem very joyful! So thankful all of our prayers were answered that all three of you are doing well 🧡 your son is absolutely adorable! What a treasure from the Heavenly Father 🌈

[@Dylancan1244]

[@soybojayjay]

He definitely has your eyes! So precious 🥺❤️

[@annamariabletsa]

Oh my god. Marcus comes in different sizes?😂 Hello James, welcome to the world little man. I wish him a happy and healthy life. He is adorable ❤️

[@martibell9185]

I’m not sure if anyone else had commented this, but it sounds like you were having pelvic floor pain. Your pelvic floor gets super weak from all of the weight and strain when you are pregnant. Walking, using your legs to move things around, lifting your legs etc can hurt so bad! It took my chiropractor a few weeks to finally figure out what was causing me so much pain. Luckily he was able to show me some stretches that HURT SO GOOD. I did them throughout the day and it helped so much. It was like stretching a sore muscle. You can even do those stretches/exercises after the baby to help strengthen your floor again!

[@abbylangley1232]

IM SO HAPPY YOU’RE BACK! we want alllll the videos! I know you’re busy being a new mom and renovating, but we missed you!

[@anajen2.0]

A video about what you actually used in your hospital bag would be SUPER helpful 💖💖💖

[@megansmanytutorials]

Please do a youtube video on your hospital bag!! I would love to see what you used/wish you brought/stuff you didn't end up using.

[@punuzii]

Congratulations! He is so cute! I just had my first baby too and I had a lot of groin pain during the last trimester and I thought it was just me as well because when I searched online, I couldn’t find a lot of people talking about that symptom

What a beautiful way to describe stretch marks. They’re precious because they’re symbols of the miracle of being able to carry a baby!

I had HORRIBLE groin pain. Towards the end I could barley walk. sometimes my pelvis would pop when I moved and it was so painful. I also broke my ankle while pregnant and needed surgery on it. So I think going through that healing process and walking uneven made it that bad.

I had SPD while pregnant( look it up!) I bet it’ll explain the exact pain areas! it’s exactly what you are describing ! I had to go to Physical therapy the last few weeks for it!

OMG! He does have your eyes!

First, congratulations on baby boy! The pain you mentioned is pelvic girdle pain. I had it with my 2nd child at 25 weeks pregnant and didn’t go away until 9 months postpartum (still feel it occasionally with harder work outs). It hurt to get out of bed, sit, stand, getting in and out of the car, walk, shower my toddler - anything really.
