I love the brown trousers with the white top 😍

[@robinpeckford6547]

Also obsessed with the brown pants and white top ❤

[@brittmorgan7668]

Thank you for your videos Beth! I am 5 weeks PP with my first baby and I have watched your videos since before I was pregnant. You’ve given me so much hope and taught me so much. This new season of motherhood is scary and exciting and having your channel as a guide has brought me so much comfort. I look forward to your videos! Praying that God blesses to you and your lovely family!

[@BethGraceMoore]

Oh wow, that means so much - thank you so much for being here and allowing me to be a part of your motherhood journey! 😭❤️ congrats on your new babe!

[@kaylapowell4261]

Same here! I started watching her when I was pregnant this year and now I'm 6 weeks PP with my little boy🩵

[@natalieleach8957]

I’m impressed that you are functioning so well and doing stuff right now with 3 kiddos and little sleep. I have a 3 yr old and 10 month old. Just want to encourage you and pray for you….praying that the Lord gives you extra rest and strength for each day. You’re doing great mama!

[@magnolia7322]

I have used natural cycles for years and it works great! I wasn’t consistent at taking my temperature with the thermometer since being a mom with so many night wakings and lots on my plate so I got an oura ring and it’s so much more convenient and I don’t have to think about it (so nice when you already have enough to think about being a mom)! It’s an investment but it’s worth it to me!

[@user-kc2hh5fh2q]

I also have the natural cycles and oura ring combo and love it!

[@BethGraceMoore]

Ahhhh I would LOVE one but they're so pricey!!! Can totally see how it would be worth it though

[@graceprice6351]

@@BethGraceMoore I’ve heard some insurance companies can help with the oura ring cost and you can use FSA/HSA funds towards it as well! Not sure if all that is true I haven’t looked into it myself but just an idea 💡

[@BethGraceMoore]

I hope you guys are having the sweetest, most restful (😉) summer so far! What's something you're looking forward to doing this summer with the kids? Share some ideas here!

[@HandyHijabi]

Definitely going to be trying the chicken recipe! 😍 Happy belated birthday Beth!! We’re actually preparing to welcome our very first baby this August, God willing 💕🙏🏽✨ so I’ll be spending quite a bit of time re-watching a lot of your first-time momma videos and soaking in as much newborn baby cuddles as possible 🥹🙈 pls pray for us 🙏🏽 sending lots of well wishes to you and your family!

[@kaylapowell4261]

As much as we can with our current 6 week old😅

[@micaelablogs]

​@@kaylapowell4261 haha that was my thought too because I also have a 6 week old! and two toddlers 😂 so I will mostly be hanging out at home playing outside and watching my chickens run around

The splash park has been a life saver for toddler entertainment

[@FamilyAndCo]

Hi Beth, your channel is inspiration, thank you for being so honest about maternity topics❤

[@KellyCoetzee-k4c]

Always love coming over for your videos, Beth! You are such a blessing and inspiration to me. I am a mama to a 2.5 year old son and oh my... Motherhood is pretty rough sometimes... And of course... So sweet and special too! Love and blessings! - Kelly

[@lindsey2302]

I have used the daysy thermometer for all 5 years of my marriage and I swear by it! It has been amazing for me and you don’t need to pay a subscription. The technology of it is great and customer service is amazing as well

[@TheMennomilist]

Happy belated 28th birthday! I loved being 28! I hope you will too. Your postpartum has returned so fast already! I am over a year and still working it off, and with my kids I had in my twenties it took 6-9 months. Great job! I do think that you got your period back is why your post partum belly has been returning faster. A good period helps regulate a body better. I got my period back 4 months postpartum with my first two and so that is why it took only a few months for me to get back. With this last one, it took 11 months to come back which was crazy and so I have only had two cycles and NOW I am seeing changes happening in my body even though I eat healthy foods, don't overeat, and workout constantly. I am sorry you got your period back after 6 weeks though. That would be sad. It is nice to get a break from a period for a few months, at least.

[@alyshamaceachern3446]

Would love to know where the red gingham dress is from ❤️❤️

[@EmmaLandén-q4y]

I use tempdrop for temperature in combination with fertility awareness symptom tracking (cervical mucus). I track everything in read your body app 😊

[@mikaelakirk2503]

Hi! I’ve used natural cycles with my Apple Watch wearing it at night and flipping the watch to the inside of my wrist for a more accurate reading! Works great! I’ll continue to do the same thing but I’m pregnant now with the my second and due in September. My first born and the new baby will be 14 months apart! 😅❤ so I totally feel and relate with the quick turn around and very regular period coming back at 6 weeks pp. we shall see what happens this next time!

[@shaniacockerham3563]

Your daughters voice when she took a drink of your drink ❤

[@CapsuleKnits]

Regarding cycle tracking: I‘be been using the tempdrop sensor for 3 years and it works very well :)

[@Proseccoandpacifiers]

I love my oura ring so much! I was using it for about a year before I went off birth control to conceive my son and it did an amazing job during those few months (compared to Ovia and ovulation tests). I haven’t been using it postpartum to track as I’m trying an IUD right now. But it is very comfortable to wear and sleep in and the app is very user friendly.

[@jasmynsreality]

Can’t wait to see the new room

[@natalymcmillan2572]

Beth- have been watching your videos for an incredibly long time! It’s been so beautiful to see your family grow! I’m currently pregnant with my first and was curious- where did you get the crib? It’s stunning!

[@ourwildflowerhaus]

where is the plaid carrier from? it’s darling!!

[@Jocah21]

Hey Beth, I would love you to make a video about the transition of you sweet new baby girl sharing the room with your oldest daughter. Thanks

[@melbop618]

Vivian’s voice is sooooo cute oh my goodness 🥹

[@nikiwestergren]

loved this video and love that you show a realistic picture of motherhood!🤍 i’m 2 weeks PP with my first baby and so grateful! even though the sleepless nights have been catching up with me 😄🤌🏻 its been such a blessing 🥰

[@savedbygrace7772]

What baby wrap were you wearing in the beginning of your video? Also do you know the name of the blue dress from pink blush?

[@BethGraceMoore]

That’s a Solly wrap ☺️I had a code with them back in the day - not sure if it’s still active but worth a shot! bit.ly/3lnfOjz BETHGRACEMOORE15

[@Allthingsbirth245]

Ugh I am the same. 8 weeks PP and I got my period back at 7 also and with my first I got it back at 8 weeks. People keep telling me it’s not my period that it is still part of the postpartum lochia but I stopped bleeding around 3/4 weeks this time around so I find it hard to believe the lochia stops for 3 weeks and then starts like a period all over again. Idk postpartum is so confusing for me. I’m trying to chart but I don’t temp and have also been looking into a device. I am thinking about getting the copper iud with no hormones but I can’t get into my Dr until next month. So here’s to hoping I can track correctly 😂

[@allysonfisher8934]

I have really loved using the Marquette method for fertility awareness! It uses the Clearblue fertility monitor and charting. I learned the method with an instructor through Vitae Fertility but there are multiple other platforms to find an instructor. As another mom who has gotten her cycle back early after both pregnancies, I have so much trust in this method of natural family planning 😊. Good luck!

[@megangrosso1756]

I use this same method through Vitae Fertility! Game changer! I have so much confidence in the method!

[@mariahandsons]

Where is the diaper bag from at 10:01 ish?

[@irene9062]

I haven’t tried it myself, but I hear very good things about Daysy fertility tracker

[@constancedgordon4]

So jealous of all the girlfriends you have. I have 1 friend who lives in the same state as me but we recently had babies 1 months apart and we rarely get to text much less hang out. Also finding it hard to just function from day to day. Maybe because it's my first baby and you're a pro as a mom of 3? 🤷🏾‍♀️ Idk, but I can't believe you're able to do so much!

[@meksu7385]

Where's the wedding guest dress from? :)

[@iska.gittings]

i have been waiting for a video !!!! thank u

[@rkfernandez9723]

We use Couple to Couple League NFP for cycle charting (which is the Sympto-Thermal Method of charting). Wow, six or seven weeks postpartum is really quick for your cycle to come back. Mine typically doesn't come back until closer to 10 or 12 months, taking a cycle or two to regulate before I've gotten pregnant again. I was reading about Exclusively Breastfeeding vs Ecological Breastfeeding. I've wondered if the later leads to more of a delayed return to one's cycle (as that has been my experience), but women's bodies can be so different. I'd be curious if you've heard of Ecological Breastfeeding and if that fits your style of your breastfeeding journey?

[@BethGraceMoore]

@@rkfernandez9723 I would say yes to everything except we do use pacifiers! But I nurse on demand day + night and it still always comes back around 6 weeks!

[@rkfernandez9723]

Ah ok. Interesting to hear. Thanks for sharing. Women's bodies can respond so differently. Also, wanted to mention, you handle 3 under 3 with such grace. :)

[@orlewiczjlo1989]

I do the Marquette method after my second. I was scared about the cost but I’m regular and it isn’t as expansive as I thought ( need to buy a box of stock every 3ish months and buy cheapies ovulation strips to cross check it if a day malfunctions on an expansive sticks.) I would get an instructor even though if you are use to tracking most of the rules you will pick up or get easily. The monitor you can find second hand or a lot of people just give them to you a lot of times. piece of mind and very little rules compared to other methods is worth spending and budgeting out for. Love your videos you are such a good momma ❤

[@micaelablogs]

I'm a big fan of naturalcycles! I'm also 6 weeks postpartum with 3 under 3 and I keep thinking "crap I need to start taking my temperature again" 🤦🏼‍♀️😂 one of my favorite things about pregnancy is not having to worry about birth control and periods lol

[@micaelablogs]

I'm intrigued by the oura ring because it would be so nice to not worry about manually taking my temperature in the morning

[@BethGraceMoore]

Hahaha I am in the same boat right now - keep forgetting to put my bracelet on at night to track temp 😳

[@micaelablogs]

@@BethGraceMoore oh shoot! I thought something I could wear would fix my problems 😂

Where’s the white bin you put the clothes away! It’s nice and big.

[@aly7409]

I love temp drop!

[@Tapcg]

Tip to stop your chopping board from moving around is to put a wet cloth underneath it

[@jasmynsreality]

Wow 6-7 weeks postpartum is so quick. I didn’t get mine until 10.5 months and that’s because I stopped breastfeeding

[@BethGraceMoore]

How does it feel to be living my dream... 😂

[@Hannah_MK]

I also always get mine 6-8 weeks postpartum! Benefits are that once you get a period, at least you can more easily track your fertility instead of being unsure!

[@jasmynsreality]

@@BethGraceMoore lol it was great I can’t lie

[@amiliasofia7563]

How do you go on a night out when breastfeeding a newborn? Do you go home if she wakes? I haven't been out in years 😂 xx

[@BethGraceMoore]

@@amiliasofia7563 haha bring her with me and feed while we’re out 😂 or feed right before you leave and be back before the 3 hour mark. But I usually just feed on demand anywhere we go with a nursing cover!

[@doravalencia2214]

Lol after my cousin's wedding my 3yo kept talking about her getting married 🤣 idk how many different ppl shes getting married to and our family dog.. "when im older i get married to Rico" "i only want rico hes my favorite" lol 😆 😂 mine too baby mine too

[@micaelablogs]

I asked my two year old who she's marrying at her pretend wedding and she said "um, people" 🤦🏼‍♀️ gotta teach that girl about monogamy lol

[@BethGraceMoore]

Hahahah this is SO cute

[@amysingh4]

The fertility awareness method I use is the Billings Ovulation Method. It has to be learned with an instructor but I understand my body sooo much better with this method, and it’s one of the most effective ones out there (lots of studies backing it up!) It doesn’t require any gadgets either which makes it super affordable; just tracking your body’s sensations. I’ve also heard really good things about Symptopro if you want to take your temperature. I didn’t pick that one because it’s not as great for postpartum, but since you get your period back early it could be a good option for you. In general, I’m a fan of spending money on an instructor rather than on tech (though Billings instructors in BC are free, which is amazing!)

[@mori.kurogawa7936]

Am I confusing you with sb or didn't you say you had endometriosis? If you do, you shouldn't have your period like, EVER unless you are actively trying to conceive. Then you need to to take dienogest or at least the minipill to prevent it from spreading too much. Sorry, if I mixed you up with sb but to anyone else : please take endometriosis seriously, the damage it does is partly irreversible and can cripple your organs for the rest of your life!

[@delilahmertoglu]

I don't remember her ever mentioning endo

[@cynthiaperovich310]

It simply depends on your situation. I have endo and no doctor has ever told me to be on the mini pill to avoid periods except when i was younger and had horrible horrible cramps.
