2 weeks postpartum I was still bleeding heavily, crying / feeling super emotional, pumping every 2 hours, not sleeping…. Gurrlllll take care of yourself!!

[@imperial.dermatology]

@@alimueller2514 she will take care of herself, and I will also take care of her as she’s my baby. We will surround her with love, care, affection, and everything that she needs both her and the baby.

I think you’ve shown pregnancy brilliantly and the true strength of the female form. You’ve continued working in the office + kept your socials going, you’ve trainer physically, sorted your home out. It’s inspiring truly. I know some women become physically unwell during pregnancy and can’t be so active but it’s great to see someone just thriving

[@JennaHong]

I can’t get over the sitting and cooking it’s so real

[@evelingmayorga7949]

Hahahaha seriously I did that for my second pregnancy

[@michellebraddock6671]

Girl if you can bring your baby to work with you, socialize and get some work done after 2 weeks and feel good…DO IT!! I’m sure seeing your friends and family will be so uplifting and honestly give you some relief from everything ❤ Everyone is so different, gotta do what feels right!

[@imperial.dermatology]

@@michellebraddock6671 we are ready to love her and the baby!

[@tonikhn]

In Germany, you get fully paid maternity leave for 6 weeks before and 8 weeks after birth so you can prepare and recover. Make sure to take the time to heal before you return back to work, Rachel! :)❣️

[@mansoor3159]

Rachel your vlogs makes me so calm and peaceful, Thank you so so so much for making such a wonderful beautiful vlogs for us and I will always be your supportive🥹💫❤❤

[@lifewithjown]

Omggg congrats to Anna!! 🎉 and yesss pleaseee looking forward to a new podcast ep!! Vinny is so cuteeeeee during the crumble taste review haha

[@Mishmash725]

2 weeks? Goodness.. that’s not a lot of time girl! I understand that’s your mom’s practice but you also need to recover and enjoy your little one!

[@RachelVinn]

Guysssss! I said I’ll see how I feel and if I wanna get out of the house I’ll go to work for a COUPLE of HOURS not full time

[@daniellespivack]

Seriously! She’s still going to be in diapers 😂 funny but sad. Western culture has it so wrong. I greatly believe in the sacred 40 days after birth for those who can do it

[@simplyellenxo95]

Love your channel Rachel….it makes me so happy to end the night like this…😊

[@StefandCarly]

🙋🏻‍♀️ I grew up Mormon lol (I was born into the religion, however, since my early 30’s I consider myself Christian). So the caffeine question…The religion recommends to refrain from any addictive substances, like drugs, smoking and alcohol (but also recommends anything that you can become dependent on) this includes caffeine, as we all know we “need our morning coffee” lol. The religion promotes a balanced life including adequate sleep, exercise, etc and respecting our bodies as they are a temple in which the spirit can dwell in. Most Mormons drink sprite or caffeine free sodas when they have carbonated drinks. It’s frowned upon to drink caffeinated drinks, however it ultimately boils down from person to person and conviction to the religion. As mentioned I now consider myself Christian, and I now consume coffee on the daily, energy drinks (Celcius/Alani or pre work outs) I also have alcohol on ocasión. The whole caffeine thing is part of a lifestyle just as believing in Chasity or saving yourself until marriage. It’s a belief and it is ultimately our choice. The caffeine thing is part of what they refer to as “The word of Wisdom” to not consume addictive substances. Hope this helped lol 👍🏻 ❤ ur videos Rachel ♥️

[@RachelVinn]

Thank you for this explanation! 🙏🥰

[@britnilucius312]

As a twin momma, I disagree with all the negative comments about needing longer time. I had one twin in a nicu and one at home for the first two weeks, so I didn’t get any “recovery” time for myself as the nicu was 1 hour away, it was chaotic and I got through it fine and your work plan is totally doable to me!! I can’t imagine sitting in the house 24/7 for 8 weeks.. everyone needs to get out a little and I think your mom’s office will be the perfect little “break” from home ❤

[@jessssalemme]

cutest little mama to be! 💗 so excited for this next chapter for you!

[@annabenson5684]

Worried about you guys in Florida. Stay safe!

[@shailajaprakashkarbil4099]

Today I was wondering if Rachel had not uploaded any video yet And here she is ❤

[@RachelVinn]

I hope I never let you down

[@klow816]

My third transfer attempt is next month. Love your videos. They remind me of what is hopefully possible for me soon!

[@HarryThomasPictures]

Your nailing your third trimester Rachel, your kitty can't wait to meet her sibling🐈‍⬛❤️!

[@katefitzpatrick973]

Honestly if I had your situation I would want to do the same with slowly getting back to normal things by working a few hours here and there! I can’t imagine taking 6/8/12 weeks completely off work, especially when I love my job.

[@RachelVinn]

Exactly my thoughts💕

[@glencoco3142]

A lot of people say this... before they have a baby 😅

[@keiri456]

lol omg I noticed Ana’s ring in your baby shower vlog lol. 🎉 congratulations to her! Two weeks is not a lot of recovery time but maybe being out and about might help you. For myself, I couldn’t walk right even after 6 weeks 😂 but everyone is different. Hope you have a smooth and quick recovery!

[@jessiruu]

I loved your podcast Rachel! I can’t wait for the new episode to drop! 😁

[@BethMJones]

So inspiring with your workouts pregnant! Love the drawer dividers/organizers. The cookies all looked delicious.

[@Lavinia-uz7ul]

Two weeks off? In Romania we have 2 years maternity leave.

[@marchelledesir5394]

We get more than two weeks she's just choosing to end maternity leave early

[@RachelVinn]

I’m not ending it I’m just saying I might stop by the office like once a week if I feel like it :)

[@ChicSabrina]

2 years of maternity is actually so amazing. What a blessing that would be to have here!

[@alainaclay2547]

I think for your wall book shelves, I think it would look nice to have 2 on the same wall, then the other wall do like some wall art or something cute. 😘 Can’t believe we are already at 34 weeks!!

[@naomsiie]

It’s amazing you’re able to work with family! I’m planning on only taking 2 months off max from work. I work remote and unfortunately we don’t get full maternity leave pay so it’s not worth it especially when we have a mortgage and my jobs easy lol

[@katefitzpatrick973]

I think two shelves on the left wall you pointed to would look so nice when you walk in the room!

[@Tommie_Don]

You definitely have much more flexibility with that being a family practice. Glad you could still do that because I feel that it is important to keep some things flowing regularly as it does help your mental especially for someone like you who loves to work & stay productive. Good luck !

I needed so Rachel vinn lol I been to the mountains last weekend

Love this one, Rachel!❤

[@cub08]

omggg i was waiting!!❤

[@bearsb0930]

I would do both shelves on one wall and then put some kind of art or wall decor on the other wall.

[@carolinap2425]

why 2 weeks off? You’ve been trying to have a baby for years just to only have 2 weeks off that’s so insane lol and working while pregnant risking ur pregnancy even more ??? How is ur husband ok with that

[@imperial.dermatology]

Pregnancy is not a disease and physical activity is not harmful to pregnancy, respectfully

[@Nipuiish]

Just 2 weeks off,she went through all these trouble just to take 2 weeks off.Come on you work for your mother,she can find a replacement

[@RachelVinn]

I said I’ll see how I feel and go to work for a FEW hours if I want to get out of the house. I’m not being forced to do anything this is just my prediction of what will happen based on my personality lol

[@RachelVinn]

@@Meechyo69 then I’ll stay home and sleep

[@zellefied7401]

Rachel is smart, she knows her body, limit and its her life. And I am sure she has the biggest support system. Please stop with these kind of comments.

[@KellyKels23]

Man...seeing that taco bell gives me ptsd. Dropped my Mexican pizza the other night...a week after dropping my sushi. Both a complete waste, but my dog ate good while i had a tear in my eye😂😂

Is the mattress a cooling mattress?

Just curious, Are you planning on scheduled CS or normal delivery? I don't know why but most people I know is usually CS with IVF pregnancy

Hey! Love watching your videos. I’m a dental assistant and I just wanted to warn you to be careful of the nitrous oxide. You really shouldn’t be around it during pregnancy💕

[@Moreofashhley]

Her mom is a doctor I’m sure she would let her daughter who she works with know if it wasn’t safe.

[@scarlettlacy2408]

nitrous oxide is actually commonly used as a pain med alternative during labor! 😊

[@stephaniemcfarlane4434]

@@scarlettlacy2408 While nitrous oxide can be beneficial in the delivery of treatment, pregnant women should avoid added exposure due to the possibility that it can harm the developing fetus.💕

I really like how you take care of yourself and workout during your pregnancy. Some women let themselves go and use the excuse of their pregnancy and not do anything. It's good to keep active for the mom and baby..

[@ghold6810]
