Moving, pregnancy symptoms & making a will | Ep. 88

[@anitaalesik23]

Haven't listened to you guys in a while. But had heard so much hate towards your family. Was kind of bored today and decided to listen to one of your unplanned podcasts and man, you guys are great. I see you being genuine. I love how you don't try to come out perfect on social media. I see your marriage being a safe place, especially for your children. Please, don't give up on each other, be supportive of each other as you have been. Don't listen to haters, you carry a good light that irritatates the ones in darkness. Proud of you!

[@nakazzirose]

Where did you hear or seen them from? I've never seen or come across them. They are the nicest people in this world. I love that they mind their business 😊😊😊😊

[@brooketaber]

I just want to let you guys know that you are so uplifting! I know that you talk about deep and difficult things sometimes but in all your podcast has been making me feel so grateful and happy with my life. You two are so good at lifting each other up that listening has helped me to focus on the positive things in my life. It's also helped me recognize that my own relationship with my husband is so wonderful and I'm so blessed ❤️ I've begun showing him more appreciation and encouragement. I am 10 years older than you two but you guys are such a light and inspiration. This has become my favorite podcast. Thank you and I can tell Abby isn't a huge fan of the social media and vlogging part of the job but you seem to be loving the podcasting world and it seems to bring out some joy in you and it makes me so happy that you found a part of this journey that seemingly makes you happy 😊

As a gymnastics coach who is trained in concussions, you need to go get looked at. Especially since you have had one before. Undiagnosed concussions that aren't monitored can turn into a traumatic brain injury which is life altering. You also definitely shouldn't be going back to the gym or doing any kind of exercise until your doctor says it is safe to do so.

[@2lea0123]

Yeah, I was about to say, even minor concussions usually get you sent to a neurologist to make sure everything is ok. It’s important to go to a doctor.

[@rachelrybar8838]

Even after 20 of them, doctors don’t refer you to a neurologist. They all say, “You’re young and will get better.”

[@anjeekutz5262]

My sister has a TBI and her life and everyone in it have gone through A LOT!!@

[@WannaBeVintage]

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury, often refered to as mild traumatic brain injury in the medical field. However, it is true that return to physical/cognitive activity too soon after the injury can exacerbate or prolong the duration of symptoms. It's especially risky to get long term symptoms if you get another impact to the head soon after a concussion.

[@sheliadrennan653]

Gym shouldn't have let u leave with head injury very dangerous u could die in Sleep from. Blood clot

My husband and I always watch a show at the end of the day. It helps us unwind from the busy day with work and our little ones. Not once have I felt that it disconnects us. We love our downtime to sit and watch what we both enjoy and still chat before after or even during. Choosing to connect is a choice regardless of what activity you do once kids are in bed. Gotta do whatever works for each couple!

[@jillr759]

Oh no, get out and walk! They are your relaxing time? Yikes

[@RobinHollon-o1q]

I have listened from the beginning. I’m a mother of 6, but I’m retired and a grandmother. Our oldest is 40 and our youngest 23. I love you guys!!!

[@sarahconnelly8092]

You guys speak so well together there’s never a boring moment !! Love it

[@maybeme94]

I think the way you do your podcast is wonderful. Very informative, respectful, honest, occas lighthearted( sense of humor…yes!) I respect the limits you’ve set regarding including your children. You won’t regret it…. Also, just delivering a podcast creates a healthy separation of work and home time. Meaning it insures family time that is intentionally private. You all keep on keeping on. You are appreciated, seen and respected. You’ve also included a lot of interesting couples and I don’t think you’ve ever judged them if they have included children. That’s important to be non judgemental while maintaining different boundaries from those you interact with. I’m a 68 yo gmother…mother of three, grandmother of 3. And I have 4 siblings… Take care, hope you enjoy continued success and you maintain your healthy boundaries! ✨🙏🏼✨

[@sarahmariab00]

I relate to you so much Abby; as a mom its so easy to get into a habit of just pushing through whenever you are feeling bad or are literally in pain, so when your husband needs to rest and lie down with something it can feel very frustrating... like oh man common lol. but its important to remind ourselves that we all need and deserve rest :) Very nice of you to recognize and apologize for it!

[@tashanicole8890]

the vegas incident is why i suggest everyone learn sign language. its such an easy language to learn.. then you can communicate anywhere, loud concerts, across the store, etc. it’s so useful

[@fenpurser5891]

Been listening since the first episode!!! This podcast is part of my unwind routine every Wednesday afternoon after a long day of teaching!

[@Nat-A-lie_goober]

CONCERT!! Screaming, singing, dancing, and vibing to music is way more rejuvenating for me than a spa!

[@kharris7247]

I’ve watched every single episode and been here since the beginning, can’t believe it’s been that many episodes!

[@virginiarumuly8875]

I've been around with them for awhile. I remember the first vlog I watched was when they got their edited wedding video back. Back at the beginnig of their marriage. I haven't watched every single video, but I've watched them on and off ever since that one. So I've seen all their life changes and all their moves. You guys are like extended family for me.

[@chrisdoden132]

I know just what you mean Abby. Vomiting is so painful. I pull muscles, pop vessels and get the most horrible headache. I do the same thing-don’t move at all. I avoid it at all costs.

[@Westerngirl-z5d]

Must be nice.. vomit all the time, have vestibular/hemiplegic migraines every single day

[@rkeppel4243]

Matt & Abby, When talking about the Mendez brothers you have not considered the control an abuser has over their victim. It seems so easy for us to say, "Why don't they just leave?" Please re-evaluate your thoughts on the case.

[@af612]

I had 10yr copper IUD and got pregnant year 6 of having it and lost the baby. Pregnancy can happen with it and most of time u lose baby. U need to go get check just Incase and if u are and it's very early in maybe there is a chance of removing IUD and not having any complications and being able to carry baby. Praying for y'all. Please update us but my advice is go to Dr ASAP to get checked!!

[@jennig7543]

I had copper IUD as well after 3 years of having it I was preggo 😂 we are talking back late 2015. My god sister has Mirena iud her period was delay and then she no more period . My friend had skyla she period was delay but no preggos.

[@sandyruther2745]

Me, too. I would never recommend a woman get an IUD.

[@leisaann]

My son is 6, and I feel this. I'm fine with it 80% of the time, but as my son gets more independent, I feel a little lost

[@leen34568]

yeah exactly what the other mom said. what happens when the children leave? when they grow up and find themselves? it’s really freaking scary.

[@laurendonnelly5622]

I am a health student and one of the biggest reasons your head bleeds a lot is because the blood has to get there against gravity the force to pump it is greater and lots comes out.

[@annalt6426]

I’m not a single parent but my husband works 5-6 days every week like many other people and when I’m sick he can’t just call off all the time, you just have to push through. Sometimes that means watching tv all day 😅

[@georginacullen4852]

Food is the first thing they can control that’s all it is. Persevere. They learn fast and one night hungry is better than a lifetime of a really picky eater. Simply because when their form of control works they will continue it just because it’s a learned behaviour. When my son did this I started involving him in the cooking progress. Taking him to buy the produce, getting him to wash it and help put it in pans etc and when he’d ’made it’s guaranteed he’d eat it all. But if I’d given it him no chance! 🥰 hope it Helps xx

Please get diagnosed properly! Especially when you are a spouse, a parent(anyone that is a caregiver). Gee, do it even for yourself, even. After my husband passed away @ 43 years young from cancer when our son was 4 years old, I had no choice but take my son with me if I had a Dr's appt. or had to go to urgent care or emergency room. Just like they say on the airplane with the oxygen(take the oxygen for yourself first, before you get those you are in caring for their oxygen).😊❤

[@elipan7915]

I love watching your videos and listening to your podcast. I am a new mom and I can totally relate to what Abby is saying about identity loss and getting your pink back after pregnancy.

Been here since day 1 of the podcast. Love watching you guys grow. Crazy it’s been this long, but at the same time.. feels like I’ve watched you forever. You are both doing great. Love the “DUDE” fam!

[@cassiebaker5970]

RN here- head injuries due tend to bleed a lot its true. Also Abbey you should just take a pregnancy test- better safe than sorry. Especially since there can be a lot of pregnancy complications with an IUD. Getting pregnant with an IUD is more common than you would think. My aunt got pregnant with my little cousin on an IUD.

[@hey10124]

And pregnancies on IUD’s can often end up being ectopic which needs to be addressed sooner before it ruptures a tube and becomes life threatening. Just for peace of mind I would reach out to my OBGYN and ask for a blood test for good measure. Nowadays it’s typically fairly easy to message through a portal and have a lab order sent to your preferred lab so you can pop in and out real quick.

[@JewelandHart]

I've been here since your first apartment and me and my husband are around your ages. It's been fun to grow up together ❤

[@janinemaxwell4297]

I know someone who got pregnant with an iud but lost the baby and I have heard most lost the baby because it’s meant to stop the foetus from implanting. And if everyone else around you have been sick it’s probably just a bug

[@patriciacastaneda8479]

Nothing wrong with watching TV….. it’s like watching your podcast… I could be doing laundry or reading a book to my grandkids!!

[@beautiful-mt9pd]

I have been here since the 1st episode. Been following you guys before you were pregnant with griffin! So happy for you

[@jstbarnett]

I've started watching about 3 years ago and then I went back and watched the oldest videos as well. One of our grandsons turned 2 September 2 and the other grandson turned 1 on September 9 so I get the two under two. I'll tell my husband "You know Matt and Abby, well Griffin did this or Auggie did that" so I would think of our grandsons, Matthew and Elliott, being close to the same age developing about the same rate. Congratulations on your new home.

You guys are such an inspiration to me and I am proud to be able to call you my American neighbours. Abby, I totally get you, vomiting for me also feels extremely uncomfortable and I totally avoid it at any costs and just pump water all the time to try and distract my brain from focusing on the nauseau I experience. Matt I hope you feel better and please get checked out by a doctor. I was wondering what happened to Matt's song ”Stop the Carousel”l? It is one of my absolute FAVORITE songs and I was bummed to find it unavaliable on the channel.

Can you guys do an empty house tour of course with your privacy in place. We are wanting to move to and are interested in the market now.

If your kiddos love to climb get them nugget couches! I bought two for Xmas when my kids were 1 and 3, they are 4 and 6 now and it is STILL their favorite thing to play with. They can build forts, obstacle courses, climb, slide, use them as couches for popcorn and movie nights, or use them as extra beds for sleepovers. They are pricey but it is literally the best money I’ve ever spent on a “toy.”
