DAY IN THE LIFE AS A MOM (VLOG 65) | Romee Strijd

[@darellrodriguez4045]

I like how she doesn't try to sugarcoat stuff and is open to talk about her struggles

@Marjorie oh yeah ?

[@Sara-ww6jf]

@Marjorie let her live

[@darellrodriguez4045]

@Marjorie one thing doesn't have anything to do with the other

[@lucillewurl9223]

@Marjorie Stop hating on her for literally living her life. Everyone has struggles, rich and poor. She’s worked hard to get where she is today. Also, you need to stop judging someone’s whole life on what you see in a KZbin video. Your just a bad person, and it shows.

[@esmee7167]

Okay i don’t see anybody saying this but Laurence seems such a involved, loving father. They both are great parents

[@CandyAppleUT789]

They are so perfect for each other I love their story

[@hannahstampy]

I wish this was just normalised, and not something we are happy and somewhat surprised to see..

[@loisahn]

I know right he seems very very involved with the taking care of the baby. A good father!

[@kulakova7]

It’s so refreshing to hear in social media, when somebody famous admit that they struggle sometimes as well with simple things like we all do. So thank you for that Romee, that you are just as normal and humble as the rest of us without herd of nannies and housekeepers! 🥰

[@kulakova7]

Btw you should definitely watch a film called ‘Tully’! It’s about a struggling mom of three and true sites of motherhood.

"mint was crying and she shit in her pants" 😂😂😂 shes a baby hahaha. idk why but that really made me laugh. Mint is gorgeous Romee

[@Bubblyfy]

😂😂😂😂😂

Lmao that killed me haha

[@susibuehler6106]

Omg I saw this comment a second before she was saying it in the video!🙉 Talk about good timing😄

[@Vanessa_vo2]

Yeah that was hilarious

[@jodyhaas2248]

I laughed so hard...I was not expecting that! LOL

[@mariavictoriabertran3121]

I love how she just naturally shows that she is pumping instead of hiding the process, go Romee!

[@Cinthianunezcernadas]

'I'm not gonna wear any make up' Jeez, if my skin looked like hers I wouldn't even own any make up. She's absolutely gorgeous! Love your content, keep it up! 💛

[@uhlexseeuh]

aw, no matter your skin type you don’t have to wear makeup! it’s hard but it’s really important for self image to accept your skin! :3

[@rue3354]

My skin is not like her but I still don’t wear makeup. Not wearing make up helps your skin get better.

[@irma1363]

@@rue3354 Not only that, but once you stop covering up your skin and get used to seeing your bare face all the time, you don't mind the little flaws so much anymore (in my experience at least). But makeup is still fun to wear from time to time!

[@Elinebrondijk]

@Marjorie literally leave, if you hate her so much why comment on every single comment that compliments her? you are still watching her videos. We call that fan behavior. You’re pathetic. And don’t even start about her “whining and crying” She just gave birth what do you expect. Rich people can have problems. Romee worked hardcore everything she owns. Again leave.

[@moofushu]

I once asked a new mom who was a friend of mine "what was the most surprising thing about being a mom?" She said "the loss of privacy." She said she can't shower alone because she always had to keep her baby close by or shower with the door open so she can hear her baby. She said small thing like that was the most surprising to her. A few years later when she was so happy with her toddler I reminded her of what she said and she forgot she felt that way. She said it was tough in the beginning but she couldn't imagine her life any other way now.

[@plantlifeinthesouth2024]

Lol, yes, moms can't shower, use the bathroom, or ever sleep when they want lol. Things I used to take for granted. But I love my baby boy more than anything in the universe, and I wouldn't trade mom life for anything!

[@kaylalipii]

It's hard at first but after a few months is gets a lot easier. I think it's just about getting used to being a parent it gets easier with time

[@RenataValcarcel]

I lost my privacy after getting my husky when I was 17 😂 so… when my baby came it was just another soul with me in the bathroom 🚽 🚿

[@annieg.678]

That’s so sweet 🥺

[@loisahn]

This is very true! It's very very tough in the beginning, especially during the first few months, with sleep deprivation and constant fatigue. It gets better as the baby grows, much better after the first year.

[@mam09d]

Romee, you are such an amazing role model to young girls. I love that you shared how you are adjusting to motherhood and trying to juggle your life as best as you can. We’ve all been there, babies or no babies. Keep doing the best that you can ❤️ You are an amazing woman.

[@ananyadas2042]

Mint looks completely like her father. Her smile,her everything is like Lauren.

[@ananyadas2042]

@i'm ugly and i'm proud who said that? Lauren ia also very cute and handsome. And lets see what miracle can genes do.🤷🏻‍♀️

[@leahkartsonakis6030]

@i'm ugly and i'm proud dude what, he could be a male model if he wanted. They are the most attractive couple I’ve ever seen

[@tiffinyanderson4403]

I’m a head posting this comment but show yourself grace. You have a young baby. Your full of emotions which are hard after childbirth. It’s a big adjustment and responsibility becoming a parent. I think it’s awesome you’re not painting everything is “perfect”. So that others watching this will be comforted knowing it’s ok not to have everything done. I’m a routine and organized person. But by our third baby I had to learn to let some things slide and to hire help when I couldn’t see it all. Kids, career, house, laundry etc. You and Lauren are excellent people and Mint and now June will learn from you both.

[@annjay2581]

Crazy to think that I'm her age and can barely take care of myself. Major respect to every new mama my age (or every age). That shit aint easy 🙄👌

[@julittafriesen7040]

Well, she lucky. She's tall and beautiful, that certainly helped her out a lot. It gave her lots of confidence, that maybe not so good looking shorter people won't have.

[@ΑγγελικηΛαμπρου-ν9ι]

Being a mum is not an easy thing, never was. Most elder mothers and grandmothers had real difficulties, such as full absence of husbands in everyday life and at the same time criticizing everthing in a mean way. Your Lawrence is there for both of you and that makes everything more special.

[@sarahvma]

Hey Romee -- I just wanted to say that I had low supply, too. It was incredibly hard and I'm still able to combo feed my baby with a couple of pumps a day but there's definitely no need to sacrifice your mental health just for breastmilk. Your baby has you and that's the most important thing.

[@tilliecohen2861]

Yes, totally important not to stress out over it! Your baby has you! and she will also have nourishment even if you have to stop with the breastfeeding.

[@holosapiens]

Its more important for the baby to have a not stressed mom!

[@princesscharlott1983]

Soo hard - fee is best, but I think as a bf mum when your supply drops/wanes, you totally beat yourself up. Always a solution mind.. medicinal or not..

[@princesscharlott1983]

Excuse me, not always.. but often

[@kittbabe.2825]

She is that kind of person who makes you sincerely wish that only good things happen to them!!

BEST VICTORIA'S SECRET MODEL MOM EVER😍💪

[@taganga26]

Romee, you really don’t have to do it all. After a while and as she gets older you will have time for more things, this happens to every mom. Thanks for being honest about feeling overwhelmed and crying, we all have been there. Mint is beautiful! you guys are doing amazing!

[@kasiowelove1]

As a perfectionist and a total freak when it comes to organization and tidying up the life, I totally understand your struggle. It’s very hard to relax for people like us and when someone is telling you „oh, just let go”, it’s making it even worse. Sending you tons of love ❤️

[@alidap1393]

”I am not gonna put any makeup on” Cause your skin is already perfect!

[@heidihardebeck7816]

OH MY GOODNESS! Mint is so adorable!!

[@giulichiappero3496]

Romee, it's amazing how you are managing everything. Don't be so hard on yourself and thank you for being so open on how being a mum is like.

[@greta8104]

Thank you Romee for making everyones day better!

[@sahm22kids]

She's sooo cute! Trying to keep a spotless house and stay organized was the hardest adjustment when I became a mom. 13 years later with 3 older kids - it is STILL the thing that stresses me out the most. Focus on the areas you SEE the most and get to the other parts of the house when you have time. -----> Have a designated basket to throw things into and stick it in the closet. Out of sight, out of mind! Then when you have time, go through it and put things back where they belong.

[@saint7413]

I just want to tell you that your vlogs have such a great vibe, very authentic 💛

[@martan.347]

Watching you is like watching myself. Thank you for that video. You can't imagine how much that helps me that I am not alone. Thank you Romee.

[@andreaclara5774]

Awhhhhh Mint is getting so big already 🥺 she’s a cutie! Also I’ve gotten my eyebrows laminated before and I wouldn’t recommend it. Just because they are left super dry almost like the ends of ur hair, and you have to wait for them to grow out so ur natural hair grows back soft. Also in order to keep them up you have to put eyebrow gel or something on them unless you got a handy spoolie brush at all times :)

[@cchang1110]

I just want to send my appreciation to Romee for even though she was exhausted and lack of rest, she still tried to make the effort on sharing her fans her daily life and experience. Thank you so much Romee! You and Laurens are amazing, I wish your whole family safe and in great health~ Many Blessings*

[@i.g.2760]

This might be strange to say, but it feels so incredibly comforting to watch mommy Romee! Like her vibe is so peaceful and warm, love it :)

[@GimlifigliodiGloin197]

Romee 💕 don’t feel bad for “feeling exhausted of the situation” 😓 it’s totally normal at some point wanting to give up everything because you’re so overwhelmed with baby, house, you see yourself in a mirror being a disaster and you don’t don’t have time or strength to tidy up everything. I think you are a wonderful mom, Laurens is a great dad and Mint is such a loved baby 💖 it’s not going to be that hard forever, keep going you’re doing amazing 🥰

[@remaabg]

Hi romee a tip as a new mom from a nurse at the hospital she says to produce more milk you need to eat big meals and it's definitely worked for me when I don't eat or drink enough I don't produce much milk! But when I eat big meals throughout the day it's crazy how much milk I get! Anyways just some advice for a new mom ❤️

[@mariagiangiulio9887]

Hi girl! My baby was born 2 weeks after Mint and I totally understand you! I feel like it’s almost this anxiety that I get from a messy house, constantly pumping and cleaning bottles and pump... just know we’re going through this together 🙏🏼

[@hugoquin606]

Mint is the cutest and you are such a great mom

[@NastassjaLilja]

Thank you for being so honest and open. I could immediately relate about having a messy kitchen or living room & feeling so stressed about that and i don't even have a baby. I always enjoy watching your vlogs. It's so refreshing and makes me feel like im not alone. 💗

[@victoriatennyson2705]

I can’t get over how beautiful and sweet baby mint is!! What a lucky girl, she’s got amazing parents 👼🏼

[@jessicataylor3020]

Such an honest perspective on motherhood. I have a daughter and she’s almost 2 now but I vividly remember feeling the exact way that you feel with always being overwhelmed with keeping up with everything in the house, with the baby, and taking care of yourself. It is not easy but it flies by. Cherish every moment. I always had to remind myself of all the precious time I needed to cherish with my daughter and I continuously had to weigh the options of stressing out about all things I had to do vs relaxing and spending time with my little one. You will one day look back at all of this and instantly feel like all the moments you took to just pour into non-stressful cuddling time with baby and putting aside the housework was totally worth it! I wish I could say it gets easier and there will be less to do, but instead it just becomes more normal and apart of the routine. It won’t feel so taxing and more rewarding because you will see the fruit of your labor as a mom and your little one will grow, learn, and be so fun at every stage. It’s such a rewarding experience even though it can be exhausting. Don’t be so hard on yourself. You are not alone.

[@mollycostello9117]

I was actually putting my 13 month down to sleep and Romee said "she shit her pants" I literally burst out laughing and woke the baby 😂😂😂

[@clara8378]

It must be so crazy being a baby falling asleep in one place and waking up somewhere completely different

[@ashleyodell25]

My baby nephew’s first outing to a restaurant, he took a nap right before & woke up with the biggest eyes & crazy shocked expression it was hilarious.

[@rubyscott7570]

Firstly I’d just like to say mint is gorgeous ❤️. Also, thank you for sharing real life with us. You talk about struggles and feelings and hard situations, I really hope you know this is normal. I know that doesn’t really help or solve the problem but at least you know your not alone. 💘💘

[@arianamansouri9275]

Hi Romee! It gets easier! You’re being a great mama. Good for you for admitting you’re struggling. Enjoy your getaway. Thanks for letting us see your life. God bless you 3

[@natasja8201]

Ik vind het alleen maar fijn dat je laat zien dat je gewoon een normale vrouw bent die met de dagelijkse dingen bezig is en daar nu moeite mee heeft.

[@chanique20]

Your baby is gorgeous, so cute! You are doing amazing! I struggled with balancing everything with a baby and work. I found that reducing standards on certain things (it’s hard), prioritizing, and outsourcing tasks when we could afford to instead of buying more stuff gave us back so more time for things that were important! Also pumping breastmilk and working was the absolute worst 😭

[@zuzanah5229]

Romee! As someone with a 6 week old baby girl myself, I can completely understand where you’re coming from. I have to have everything clean and organized which helps my anxiety! It’s so hard with a baby! It’s definitely a learning experience to just let things go and learn to not let it get to me. What helps me is to remember that she’s not going to be this little forever and to try to enjoy her more than to spend time worrying about my house not looking up to my standards.

[@llehsir]

I've done eyebrow lamination and love it! Your brows arent "Stuck" in that upright position, you can still move them and use brow gel to manipulate them to look how you want

[@roxannar3820]

Romee, you all are doing PERFECTLY not just fine but actually perfect. Because it’s visible it is all done in love. The hard days the sleepless days as a parent with endless things to do, the house, the laundry, will always be there . Literally. Give yourself grace to know how important your sleep is even the little bits you get right now. Allow yourself grace and love to know that the more rested you are the better you can serve your baby, family, and mostly yourself . Mom of three here. And 100 guarantee you it seems so so hard right now , because it IS. Do not let it weigh on you that you’re slacking here or there. You’re tending to baby and your partner, and do not let yourself care go forgotten. You are where you need to be exactly in this moment. Those overwhelming moments, stressful , deep breath let the emotion come and go , don’t bury it down. You’ll find it more relieving to allow yourself all of the grace possible every step of this chapter.

How you’re feeling is so normal and so much a part of new parenthood. Mess makes me mad and overwhelmed too but having a young baby it’s always going to happen. It does get easier in time - she’s still so young and you’re in the trenches, in the hardest part! I think also after a few months you’re so tired from months of sleep deprivation. It will get easier, and it’s okay to struggle, it’s okay to have bad days, it’s okay not to love being a parent every single day, and it’s okay to ask for help! You’re doing amazing!
