Girl! You’re eating motherhood you shouldn’t even worry about vlogging you’re managing so well and are literally my mom goals ❤❤❤❤

[@MoonlightandGuitars]

She is. This is also her work, and she's not paid maternity leave being self employed. She's still killing it, but it helps ME and maybe helps others to remember this is her job, not just a hobby she does out of love (though I'm sure she still does)

[@lil4282]

this is said with genuine love as a fellow adhder - i'd put money on you, kurt and fox having adhd. The constant overwhelm, lack of executive functioning, forgetfullness, need to be moving or doing something constantly is so relatable and seriously understanding and being able to sort our workarounds and support systems for it might be sooo helpful. Esp with kurt being dyslexic as well which is super common in adhders! The creative energy + charm is a big plus but it can be so tough!

[@Paigeloren]

Sarah! You should lowkey hire someone to do the cleaning or something 3x a week. (Or daily idk ) And then maybe a sitter or nanny 3x a week too? Or more? I know that seems crazy. But during her cleaning & someone watching the kiddos you could go take care of urself. Meet a friend for coffee, get a massage or facial or just simple fun beauty appointment or just relax on the beach. This one woman said something that has stuck with me! She said think about life and the things we do as energy points. So if you wake up and you have 0 (neutral) starting point. & say If you slept bad -3 points. If you have a rushed breakfast & it’s just an energy bar or you skip breaky even -2 points. Say u & ur hubby got sassy that morning -2 points. If you are running late and are stressed and don’t like ur outfit -4 points. If you constantly are going through the day and don’t have anything that is + points. Then she said if you have to take care of others, you’re not actually able to give everything to them fully cause you’re coming from a place of depletion. So each thing you do for someone it actually drains you even if you want to do it for them. Vice versa - If you wake up well rested and got long good sleep +3 then if you eat a good breaky you love & enjoy it and it’s healthish +3 if you get some time for yourself or some quiet time and can workout or slowly get ready and enjoy ur time +3. If you meet a friend for coffee +2. If you go for a shopping trip +3 if you do something u enjoy for yourself +2 So then when you need to do things for others take care of everyone, you can give from a full place. It won’t deplete your energy all the way. Also, youll be teaching your kids on a subconscious level for them to take time for themselves and to really really care for their own happiness. (Which is the most important thing) you’d want your kids to live a full life and prioritize things that make them feel peaceful and happy. I learned that my mom did everything right in parenting & was and is an amazing mom. I felt so loved! Buttttt I grew up & just realized I wasn’t taking the best care of myself and wasn’t that happy. I realized I actually was doing exactly what I saw my mom doing in childhood. Monkey see monkey do! It was on a subconscious level though! Cause at the time she was so amazing to us but I guess I was picking up her lack of doing fun things for herself. She wouldn’t really ever truly make time for herself or care for herself mentally cause she was so worried about making everything great for us! and I started doing the same things and it’s because I didn’t see any different growing up. So now I’m prioritizing things that make me happy! Haha. So wild how that can happen. I also want to say I think you’re an amazing mom and you already seem to take amazing care of yourself and the home and you cook amazing healthy food and I feel like you’re killing it! But if you feel like a rat on a wheel and in a drill Sargent household it could just be the season but that shouldn’t excuse you from living a life you look forward to everyday! (I’m sure u do love ur everyday) but it just feels overwhelming. And I honestly think life is too short for it to feel like that every single day even if it is for a season! Your peace of mind and happiness is so so so important & I think you should see what and who you can bring in to help take a load off so you can make some more moments for you. Things you look forward to & find a way to have others help so you don’t feel like you’re behind. Maybe this season is learning how to lean on others and not feel guilty or bad about it! ❤❤❤

[@bubbles454536]

I love this. So well said and a good reminder for myself as well! Thank you for posting ❤

[@justinebraks0303]

Yeah, good reminder for me as well! I know it’s hard to post things like this. It can be hard to know how to give productive encouragement. Thanks for sharing your story. ❤ I too am in the thick on motherhood and am trying to figure out how to balance life. 😂 It’s a beautiful & wild ride! Thanks to Sarah for always keeping it real!

[@beyondbeautycoach7782]

Tbh, I totally relate with doing things your not “supposed to” Good Mothers have intuition when something is dangerous or you don’t feel right about things when your baby reaches milestones. I would put my 4 mo in a bumbo on the counter to see what I was doing. She was getting so bored, and I needed to get things done. People are so judgmental these days and everything is unsafe.. we’re so much better than back in the day of actual dangers like leaving your baby in your house to go grocery shopping or baby walkers with baby gates open to stairs.. I fell down those as a baby. If mom’s don’t relate to this then they’re lying that they don’t do things like that! lmao

[@saraclapham9005]

I would definitely get a cleaner if I was in your position. Even if its just for a season 💕

[@taylorsmith8214]

Sarah - You could also pay your mom to be your cleaner and tidy upper!! She might like the extra cash and then gets to spend more time with you and her grandkids 🤩 I used to get paid to clean my grandpas house and it was a win win. Instead of paying someone to come he paid me and I got to spend more time with him and I did more than a regular cleaner would and I was faster! Win win

[@tinatomato92]

So many people think they need to do these crazy/perfect/planned/well thought through things for their social media channel to entertain their audience when all they need to do is to truly be themselves. It’s the real, raw authenticity that draws people in and that’s exactly what you do ♥️ Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing the real life vs. some unrealistic staged life like most people on social media do. Thank you for being your unapologetic self. It’s the reason why we love you and your channel so much. Don’t ever think you have to do anything in particular to entertain us because it couldn’t be further from the truth. It’s your energy radiating through your videos that we all love so much 🥰 And when I say energy I don’t even mean positive energy I mean YOUR energy wherever you are at in that moment. P.S.: sending you so much strength, positivity ans optimism, you got this Sarah ✨

[@Bhoney-11]

I think we like sleep deprived Sarah, she's hilarious and delulu 😂

[@SarahsDay]

😅😅

[@csengebujdoso1112]

I thought the same, I feel so sorry for her but the lack of sleep definitely makes her and this vlog hilarious 😆

[@moiracheng]

thank you for being so candid in the car sezzy. i think people forget that though motherhood is beautiful and being a stay at home mum is also a privilege. it’s still SO MUCH work. thank you for making me feel seen 🤍 constantly praying for you and your family in this season! 🙏🏽

[@SarahsDay]

Fully!! I love it and feel so beyond blessed but it is sooo much work!! Kurt and I both agree that running our own businesses and being AT work is a break and way easier

[@tabitharees6621]

Sarah, been watching for a good longtime, well before babies. I am so grateful for this very honest portrayal of Mum life. Don’t apologize for anything. Thank you for what you do share, it’s a game changer for the next generation of mothers who watch you. It’s real! This isn’t easy. I am a 39 year old Mum of three and nearly 8 years into running my own business and 5 hours away from all of our family, so we do everything pretty much on our own. It’s been deeply hard at times, and I’ve personally repeated “I don’t want to wish this time away…. But I feel like I’m just surviving” it’s a very real reality and I think it’s so Important to share it! It’s the only way we can start to really address how we support families and mothers. Thank you, again for being brave and sharing your journey.

[@paintsketch]

I AM FEELING THIS. Your discussion in the car resonated with me 100%. We could be the same person. I have three girls and my youngest is 10 months, so the struggle to be productive, be there for your kids, play with them etc, and then make a good dinner, keep house, it alllll adds up and you feel much pressure to get it all done. I think you’re normal. I’m so thankful for you and the realness, and I am praying for you and Harlow baby. Love you Sarah!! ♡

[@ed185]

Og subscriber here - 31 y/o - who was in university back then when you started and I had acne and gluten intolerance and a heartbreak with you - and I just connected over that and my love for fitness and I trained 12 times a week - yeeears later I also am a mom of two boys and I also had perioral dermatitis ever since my first pregnancy and we’re praying for our 3rd baby.. I’ve even been to Australia and LOVED it - the only difference is I became a doctor and I don’t love my job hahahah and I live in Germany and I don’t like the weather here and we are not yet married and I envy you for growing your own business while I was just watching 11 years 😅 I watch you to see how you do sports next to your kids or how mom life is beautiful !! I love my mom life and my boys!! I feel like you’re the mom friend I need in my life because I’m sad most of my friends don’t have kids or don’t want kids

[@emmaroseclaire17]

Sarahhh!!! 🙋‍♀️ I met you when you were filming from your bed in your parents house 😂 I vividly remember you filming meal prep stuff in their kitchen, and your breakup sadness/snow video is something I seriously go back to in my mind all the time to remind myself that there’s so much possible in life from here ❤ I feel like I’ve grown up with you and you’re doing AMAZING. Whatever, haters can hate, but one of the best things is caring less and less about the judgement. Thanks for being honest and transparent instead of perpetuating such an unrealistic picture of motherhood/balancing work and family and self-care etc. you’re doing the most!! And your gorgeous, big-hearted boys are seriously the sweetest and look up to you so much. Just keep taking care of you and trusting your instincts. You got it momma!!!! 👏

[@kariannkirk]

Sarah, we’ve missed you! As far as leisure when I have a newborn my “me time” is laying down and resting even if I can’t sleep. I just came out of this phase with twins. I literally didn’t sleep for 7-8 months straight. When they were newborn it took an hour to feed. They’d sleep an hour and we were back up feeding again. That hamster wheel lasted for 7 months. By month 4 I was SO desperate I almost hired a night nurse for a few nights a week but decided to power through. 😅 every night and every feed my legs almost wouldn’t work to get out of bed and up to the babies. I was SO tired, it definitely feels like a form of torture. I also don’t enjoy that phase. I just realize it’s a season and it’s all a blur! I also have older kids which feels like time is flying by. Every school year feels faster and faster if that’s even possible.

[@AngelFish479]

In the UK shepherds pie is made with lamb, and cottage pie is made with beef, neither have pastry they're exactly how Sarah made them

[@RosieJ7223]

Sarah LOOK INTO MY EYES: I full on support hiring a housekeeper or nanny/ babysitter. Yes, I know money doesn’t grow on trees, but if you can swing it I know in my heart that domestic help is crucial. Even if your parents babysit and you have family around, another set of hands I think is a need, not a want. I have a husband who is a domestic unicorn and we’re still not enough. It’s not you, it’s the project. More hands on deck, my friend! Remember this: Mary Poppins was a magical nanny and even she needed a cook AND a housekeeper 😊 There was an adult to child ratio of 5 to 2 in the first movie and 4 to 3 in the second and I think that’s just about the right amount thankyouverymuch 😎😁🥰

[@conniebryant197]

Love that with everything you have on your plate, you prioritize making healthy meals for your family which is priceless. You should definitely give your self grace. This season goes by so fast!

[@SarahsDay]

🥹😭thank you so much!! That’s honestly my love language

[@shannonreynolds1052]

The not being ready for the kids coming home is SO REAL 🤣🤣

[@ievagorbaciute5354]

Agreed so true 😂😅

[@christina5545]

I’m never ready 😂😂

[@GnMDAILY]

Sarah I’ve been watching you even before fox , I’ve always wanted to start KZbin but i was always thinking “ who would watch me “ I’m now a mother to a beautiful 1 year old and happily married of 4 years , I got so inspired from your vlogs which is why I decided to start doing KZbin as well !! Don’t ever feel negative you genuinely inspire people and are such an amazing soul 🫶🏻 I had to double comment because you deserve all the support , from one mama to another 🫶🏻 keep going girlie you’re an inspiration ♥️

[@smallem]

Fox sounds like my son...full of energy, insanely sociable, just never wanting any downtime. When you mentioned about not knowing what he'll be like having to sit down at school, i had this thought too. For the first few years we put him in a conventional school. Feedback from teachers was always the same - he doesn't want to sit down, finds it hards to focus etc etc. We realised that wasn't the right school for him as the teachers didn't know how to handle kids that didn't fit into their box, so we moved him to a Wardorf Steiner school where they learn through play, aren't sat down all day and spend a huge amount of time outdoors, and it suits him perfectly! So if you come across these challenges, just remember there are always options and conventional school isn't for everyone because kids brains all work so differently!

[@Rubyyyyyy-r6t]

Hiiii Sarah, honestly if you don’t see this I totally understand I have been a silent supporter for as long as you have started KZbin, but I just wanted to tell you, you are one of the most amazing women I know and your doing an amazing job in mum life, worker mum mode and honesty just life in general, I honestly love you sooo much x

[@MrsEspino]

Thoroughly enjoyed this chaotic and very relatable vlog! 😂 You are doing an amazing job Sarah! I've been watching you since you started and our eldest are the same age, i got 2 boys now and man i feel this so much. The struggle is real with 2 boys and you are juggling 3! That makes you a rockstar. Moms just really have this super power to get through the most difficult days. Just so you know, i see you. You are not alone. Maybe this is the season to lean in to some help, be it hiring help with the house, a nanny or delegating more tasks to your partner. We're still good moms even if we accept support. Sending so much love to you from Philippines. ❤

[@meganbriercheck2614]

I’ve gotten into the habit of making 3 times during each day that I do for me: two that are fun and one that will make me feel good after. For example my two fun things would be painting/coloring and the other reading and the thing I do to make me feel good is workout. It can be 20 minutes for each thing, it’s just making your important things trump your urgent things. Some of those things I do with my kids too! It can be done, I’ve just really tried and focused more on me because when mama is happy, everyone is happy. Hope this helps! Love you Sarah!

[@OOtwiga]

You do this so gracefully Sarah! I honestly could never. I would love to see a video with you and Kurt talking about how the kids effected your relationship, intimacy, how dynamics changed etc. If you have time for a sit down video ever

[@kirlynz2554]

The mouse on a wheel feeling (and just the general physical, emotional and mental burden of being a woman) is sooooo relatable!!! And I don't even have kids! I literally don't know how moms DO it, y'all are heroes and should be treated as such. But girl, PLEASE hire some help wherever and however you can during this season of life! Try to relax the expectations that you hold yourself to, because we always expect the most from ourselves. Much love and please be kind to yourself! 🩷

[@Bhoney-11]

You're gorgeous! Little bafffled why anyone would comment negatively about Harlow being on the bench... isn't that the norm when you're a mum? 😂 Unless I've just discovered, i do have a rebellious side 🤣

[@codylee.w]

lol… same. It’s the one and only way to be cookin 🤣

[@itsashlynelizabeth]

@@codylee.w I always did it too. They literally can’t move lol

[@katie8325]

I saw an awful tiktok yesterday of a mum who had a baby on a bench in one of those bumbo seats. the little girl managed to throw herself backwards and off the bench. She fractured her skull and has been left with ongoing issues with seizures. It’s not worth it.

[@Bhoney-11]

That's awful, but use a bit of common sense... I have beautiful memories with my kids while we cooked meals together

[@MoJams901]

Sarah, I find watching your videos relaxing no matter how fast paced, hectic, or crammed packed your content is. I love it all. You're real, raw and transparent. Never stop being you!! I've watched you since a break up or two before you met Kurt. Xoxo

[@kyliehenline5022]

Usually a silent follower here 👋 buttttttttt, I felt SO SEEN in this vlog! Like litterally my brain feels like a scrambled mess today. I’ve hit a wall so early today but it was SO nice to watch/listen to you while I made dinner. It felt like a girls night catching up. To what you said about thinking “who is going to care to watch this?” ME! This tired mama here. I live watching other moms do what I’m doing. Keep it up mama you are doing great! 🤎

[@MelissaAfonso-pf3ry]

Random tip about opening jars - if you bang the side of the lid with a wooden spoon or something similar, it releases the air pressure and you can open it so easily after!!!

[@antoniaduque5892]

Yes!! I was coming to share this tip 😅 also, you can put on dishwashing gloves and it will open like a charm!

[@missjesskaye]

I bang the side of the jar on floor or bench

[@Miriam-y5o]

As the oldest of 9 kids and someone who grew up in a pretty stressful environment, I think there comes a point where you just have to realize that everything doesn’t have to be perfect for you to be happy. Life happens and that’s ok. And also we can make things a million times harder on ourselves by being super type A and obsessive and pressuring ourselves to be perfect at everything. Life is hard but some parts of life are only as hard as you make them. So don’t be too hard on yourself.

[@briehouston6186]

Honestly this was one of my most favorite vlogs, I’d love more of these! & yes pretty sure the way you’re feeling towards house cleaning, laundry, etc is just life as a mother. It’s nonstop!! You’re a glowing gorgeous mama!!! Thank you for posting

[@allymitoc]

I giggled so much through this but also had lots of aha moments... So I am an Aussie mum (Manly beach, Syd) living in Romania (Eastern Europe)... and one thing I notice is the mums here don't have anxiety. So after watching your video and seeing ME in you (the wanting/needing to move non-stop, always something to do, feels less relaxing to relax than doing something) .... I am wondering if we are this way as a symptom of culture rather than truth. Like us as mothers know better than anyone that motherhood is literally non-stop; whether you have one or five kids! But, we also "do it to ourselves" ... the over scheduling, over achieving, perfectionism etc etc. Take from this what you will, but to finish, you're hilarious and doing well (and we all put the babes on the kitchen counter so don't stress haha)...but something that works for me is reminding myself the rush is only self-made. The need for perfection. And it's definitely because of the season we're in. I don't reckon it'll be this nuts forever! So maybe we can surrender to just doing rather than relaxing, but what we SHOULD do is to work on our mindsets... our hyper energy translates into the kids and we don't wanna pass our anxiety onto them, right? Anyway. Gorgeous vlog. We all feel seen. All the best Mama xxx from Romania

[@dianaschulz8101]

I think you are doing very well. That is easy for me to say - when I know how much you are struggling. I am at my WORST when I am tired. So I do get it. Vlogging is voluntary, motherhood is not when you are at the milestone you currently inhabit. Figure out your priorities and execute them as well as you can handle. We can wait. Also, worrying about critics, -- not a priority right now. That goes along with VLOGGING IS VOLUNTARY. Anyone who has been around (watching) for even a small amount of time knows that no matter how tired you are, you would never do anything to jeopardize the safety and good care of your precious children. WORRYING ABOUT THOSE OPINIONS ARE NOT A PRIORITY FOR YOU. You keep doing YOU in this mode, as well as you do it (though it seems to you like you barely have your head above water) until you walk out of the other end of this tunnel. You were so sad about the thought of this being your last pregnancy and child, just weeks before you gave birth. You know what happens after the baby is born - that period is always a blur. Do as your heart tells you. Do your best and calmly soak in those days with Harlow. You have a great back up system - and no doubt, they will step in to help when you feel you are on your last ounce of energy. We all love you, and your family. That should be the last STRAIN on your mind. Succeed as you always do...... Big Long Hug here...... Love to you all.

[@georgia9406]

It’s so nice to see you happy and bubbly again. You’ve been dealt some really hard cards in regards to motherhood and you’ve come out so much stronger. You’re such a selfless and amazing mother ❤

[@tinyhabitsofme]

I can tell you honestly that I used to do the same thing with my boys when they were babies to get dinner done. In the (same) bouncer and on the counter. They weren't hanging over the edge, they weren't bouncing and it was completely safe because they are strapped in and I was next to them the whole time. And they were happy to be involved. I love your honesty and you are such an amazing mum! xo

[@christina5545]

Watching this video couldn’t have come at a better time as I am feeling the EXACT same about the overwhelm motherhood. I work part time and have toddler twin boys. I feel like a hamster who can’t get off the wheel often and it sucks!!! I hate also feeling as if I’m just trying to get through the days and not enjoying it, but unfortunately that is the reality sometimes and for a lot of us moms. Keep up the good work!! I keep saying to myself it’ll get easier although I’m also very aware that may not happen for a longggg time 😂🫠

[@AshleyGoodwin-o9h]

4:45 I’m honestly so happy you showed Harlow in the bouncy chair on the counter, cause I am also a mom of three and I did the exact same thing. Guess what? All of my kids are alive and well - so you do you, girl! ❤

[@kellyshuttleworth2997]

Sezzy! Hi! Mum of 3 here, and I just want to say that you are doing amazingly! I left the house with two totally different shoes on once when I was postpartum. Also... I kept forgetting random things like my 3 year old daughter's library folder and her teacher sent a book home for her in a ziplock bag! I didn't know whether to laugh or cry! My treasure children are 5, 3 and 1, so we are in the thick of the chaos. It is wild and wonderful at the same time! I love your vlogs so much! In a way, I feel like we have gone through this new season of life and motherhood together, so thank you for the time and energy you put into your KZbin videos! I honestly don't know how you manage it. Sending lots of love from South Africa!

[@xseaangelx]

For all the haters, if Harlow WASN'T on the counter when the glass shattered, he would've been hurt by glass.

[@Paigeloren]

This one woman changed my life with this & I think it’ll help you too ❤ Think of life as a system of energy points. Every action, experience, or interaction either adds to or drains your energy. If you wake up neutral at 0 points but had a rough night’s sleep, you’re already starting at -3. Skipping breakfast or grabbing something unsatisfying? -2. A tense exchange with your partner? -2. Feeling rushed, stressed, or unhappy with your outfit? -4. By the time you get through the day, you’re running on empty-yet still expected to take care of everyone else. But when you intentionally fill your own cup, everything shifts. A good night’s sleep? +3. Enjoying a slow, nourishing breakfast? +3. Taking time to move your body or have a peaceful morning? +3. Meeting a friend for coffee? +2. Doing something you genuinely love? +3. When you make space for joy, you build energy reserves-so when life demands more from you, you’re not constantly running on fumes. And here’s the key: When you take care of yourself, you’re not just doing it for you. You’re setting the subconscious standard for everyone around you-especially your children. No matter how much love and effort a parent pours into their child, kids absorb more from *what they see* than what they’re told. If they grow up watching a mother who never prioritizes herself, who constantly pushes through exhaustion, they will carry that pattern into adulthood. They’ll believe that self-sacrifice is normal, that their own happiness should always come second. That’s why prioritizing your own well-being isn’t selfish-it’s essential. Your life shouldn’t feel like a never-ending cycle of exhaustion, even in busy seasons. If every day feels overwhelming, that’s a sign to *adjust, not just endure.* Life is too short to put your peace and joy on hold. If you feel like you’re drowning, maybe this season isn’t about pushing harder-it’s about learning to lean on others, guilt-free. Because the truth is, when *you* are fulfilled, energized, and happy, *everyone* around you benefits. -

This is used a lot for chronic pain too but as spoons 😂 so I start my day with 10 spoons and doing stuff takes up spoons and sometimes you get to midday and have no spoons left and need to rest and regain spoons

[@Choose2Feel]

Okay, I'm almost 40 and I've been following you since the beginning. You're such a silly goose, I just love your vibe and attitude. I feel the same way about 'relaxing' - always guilty and thinking 'oh, I should be productive instead', but I force myself to take a bit of time, even if it's just 20 minutes - of a show + warm drink and a treat. And I also remind myself to move at a slower pace when I'm racing around trying to get the house tidy or moping for example.. why are we always rushing thinking that we'll get to relax afterwards? Good job with your beautiful boys little mama xo

[@ValeriaDelRio-i3q]

Sez iv been one of ur followers since the gecco and I remember u always saying that ur a productive bee who doesn't know how to stop and always is on the go w.anything and everything. I wouldn't say hyper productivity is from motherhood its just who you are as a person. Do what makes u comfy, but if that's an aspect of you that u feel needs some level of adjustment so u can feel a sense of breath than by all means do it. Idk how ur daily schedule is but maybe just find a window a day or once week in ur schedule even if for a few min to sit down and relax even if for 30 min and turn it to a routine as uve turned exercise into an aspect of ur weekly you time routine. Everyone deserves a time to breathe and u most certainly deserve it ❤

[@TaylorRomano-n1i]

Here since day one ❤️ I feel like we are besties (you just don’t know me at all hahah) Your videos are a part of my regular routine, and my girls sit and watch them with me. They know these are “mommy’s movies” 😂 Thank you for sharing and always being YOU. I leave watching your vlogs with such renewed positivity and energy to be the best version I can be, and that’s just from watching you KILL IT and being so real and raw. Thank you for being a part of my family all these years ❤

I don’t usually comment on yt videos at all but I have to say - You’re so real for this. My third baby is about to turn 1 and I’m feeling like I’m still finding my feet. It’s rough out here in these streets! We are doing the best we can and you are doing what you know right now. Day by day, nap by nap. One thing r&r thing a week for you Sarah, start small.

Hit the lid of the beef stock jar right on the top edges (maybe like 4-6 times all the way round) with the back of a knife (or something metal and dull.) It will release the air and make it a breeze to open!

[@JessLeeVanB]

I've switched accounts a few times, but I had to go back and check. I've followed you since the "Overcoming Heartbreak" video 8 years ago when you went snowboarding. I would love if one day you could put together a video or playlist of what all you did to overcome your infertility. Obviously not right now as you've got your hands full. But it's such a heartbreaking time filled with desperation that I wouldn't wish upon anyone. I don't think people realize how hard it is unless you experience it. When you were going through your journey, I was nowhere near that point in my life, so I don't remember all of the details. But seeing you with three babies gives me hope. We pray to be blessed even just one time.

Sarah, I also don't know whether to laugh or cry. I just know the sleep deprivation all too well. Both my girls never slept well until 13 months. And I mean bad, waking every hour or so. I was a shell of a human being most days. I had a very similar experience with my second who had reflux and was born small (under 5 lbs) so I had to continually feed her. Both my girls were small like this and colicky and it was so hard. Also, did the elimination diets with them which just took extra joy away from me I felt. I just wanted to say you're doing amazing! These humans are such a privilege to watch grow but dang it's exhausting! Here with you! Love from Canada!

[@ToniEdge]

Sarah you are soooo valid for feeling the way you do. As mom's we do so much and put so much stress on ourselves to do as much as we can in one day because we know how much we have to do. In stressful times all I can do is take a deep breath and honestly, my time away is the gym and I need it cause I need my time to myself and that's my only time if not I break. You're doing AMAZING though! You are literally the person I try to strive to be as a mom and as a person! Thank you for being so real! ❤

[@RebeccaMcGoldrick-q4c]

I can relate to this video! I’m struggling trying to run my business well you could call it 2 of my businesses and working for my partners business (3 jobs) as well as both boys in school (6 & 8) they have sport 4-5 days a week and between work, housework, afterschool sports, trying to fit in homework and family time getting home 3 nights a week around 7:30-8pm it’s hard. And exhausting 😅 You’re an amazing mum, the boys will appreciate everything you and Kurt do for them. I love watching your videos because they’re so relatable, real and honest. ❤

[@dominikafreegard6701]

Not Sezzy asking who would want to watch these videos and I’m just thinking WHO WOULDN’T? This is the most relatable video I’ve ever seen in my life and honestly it’s so refreshing! Thanks for being so open and honest.♥️ Also whoever says they’ve never had their baby in a bouncer on the counter they’re lying.🥴

[@GnMDAILY]

Girl your so relatable!!! Being a mum is rough !!! Your doing A-mazing 🫶🏻

[@maddiehargis327]

I’ve been here since the very beginning! I was 14 y/o at that time (now 25) and I feel like I literally grew up with you 🥹 No matter if it’s every 3 days, once a week, or once a month - your videos always bring me such happiness and comfort!

[@bharbradeluna4600]

I've been an avid subscriber since 2016... since forever!! And can I just say how much you slay juggling everything from being a business woman, to a wife, to a mom of three and also taking care of yourself. YOU ARE WHAT I ASPIRE TO BE. And you continue to inspire not only me but so many young women out there! Totally appreciate the disclaimers but to be honest you don't owe us any of that.

[@gemmcraft]

I felt that sigh at the end of the car chat in my bonesssssss. That sigh when the you're so tired that you might cry on the exhale but you keep it in because you don't have time to cry. I was there 6 months ago, but things are better now. You've got this Sezzy ❤❤❤

[@momocan2323]

I can’t believe how much you’re struggling because you literally look like you’re glowing! 😄💕

[@SarahsDay]

Thank youuu😭😭💕

[@theweekly-report]

🎉. The reason we watch? Dude you’re a good person and you do cool shit. Like being a mom in the trenches. It’s real. We like you. We like your family. That’s why we watch.❤ it’s so nice to see that even in the struggle you prioritize healthy meals and activities with your kids. Sorry you’re not getting enough rest, it’s torture. ❤ hope it gets better for y’all soon.

[@i_h2081]

Fox being excited to learn new things and read the bible ❤❤❤ so precious

[@jessicaturner7935]

Your such an amazing mumma among many other things.. these days won’t last forever and you’ll get there. My baby girls now 16months, for her first 8 months she was severely colicky but she soon grew out of it and sleep/ “normal life” seemed to return in due course. I know how long and exhausting these days feel but you got this!!! You’re all your bubba and boys need. ❤

[@brookefinchum]

For a season I got to be "mom help" and it was seriously such a blessing. You're at a place you can do that. Even a day or so. Have someone help pick up, get the cleaning, put up groceries.... all the normal "mom stuff" that you can delegate..... it's a blessing for you but it's also a blessing for that person who gets to jump in for a day or so and observe your mamahood up close 🫶🏼

[@maddispencer1232]

Love how honest you are about life and motherhood, you make us mums feel a lot less alone, we appreciate it 🫶🏼

[@lolololalalani]

First time mom with a baby that had infant dyschezia and also didn't sleep for the first 6 months🙈 (and still isn't a great sleeper) Your vlogs are so relatable! It can feel really isolating, hard, and like you must be doing something wrong when you don't know anyone else going through anything similar. Thanks for sharing and helping all us mums with little ones not sleeping for whatever reason feel a little less alone. Wishing you and your family all the best❤

[@SmileforaSecond]

I can absolutely relate to everything you said. I have two daughters under two and I feel like there is no way to relax because taking time for yourself means that you fall behind in your house becomes just unmanageable. I relate so well to your comments, and I really hope you can get some solid sleep soon. I’m right there with you. Also, if anyone says anything about you putting the baby on the counter, that person clearly has never needed to keep multiple children alive at one time while trying to use sharp knives.

[@poetryxisxmyxshield]

Hey Sarah watched you since the being and grew up with you as we are the same age 😂 I also have 3 young children similar to you. 5, 2 and 9 months. It's wild and I 100% feel you I don't know what day of the week it. Is I can't speak in sentences this is my normal of doing chores and looking after the children and doing the school run! Your doing amazingly I've had to put my business on the back burner for now (sports massage) as with my partner having his construction company realistically I can't go back to work any time soon 😭 Just try and chill in the little moments I know it's hard but there will always be laundry there will always be cleaning there will always be something to do. But these little guys will only be little for so long. Also you need to catch a break when ever you can and self care where possible to maintain your health (maybe not so much your sanity) We hit the 9 month sleep regression early and my middle child go sick and I don't think I slept in 2 weeks I got hit with the flue and the whole house fell apart. My partner has practically begged me to never get sick again😂 Keep smashing it. The days are long but the weeks fly by. X

[@emmagee1990]

Hold the jar horizontally and tap the lid on the counter and rotate it around the rim whilst tapping - works every time!

[@Bsavannah]

14:07 Sending prayers your way Sarah. May Jesus, our closest companion, bring you peace and joy in this season ❤

[@analaura_ad]

I've been watching you since the workouts in your room at your parents house and every new vlog is still a treat for my days. You're so strong, that's for sure, but i love listening you deep from your heart and vulnerability, reminds us (and maybe even yourself) that you're simply a human being doing its best to live a good life, even when its chaos, we're all simply doing the best we can. And if you still wonder if anybody wants to hear you, I would say that I absolutely would love watching you doing nothing, chilling, drinking tea, going for a walk, or anything that just allow you to rest and contemplate everything you're already doing amazingly.

[@MirjamBrugger]

Little hack for opening jars if you can't open it haha. Just grab a small spoon and go under the lid. And then pop it open as you push the spoon down under the lid. Literally malakai could do it then!☺️

[@zaneolgamiglane]

I have been watching You vlog for soo long, and I still love Your content. You just make me feel like I am not crazy :) I have just one kid, a girl, that always needs atention, and is active, I love her so much, but that moment of "I dont know how to just sit down and do nothing" relates to me so much, because my fun is going for a 2 hour run or bike, that is my dream me time :D But yea, I just wanted to come here and say, that You inspire me not to change and embrace the active, always on person that I am. Wishing You the best! xo

[@lisavanhecke4085]

I feel like you are in the same situation then my mam was when mijn little brother was born. And really the only thing that helped was we got a kind of nanny for 1 or 2 days a week but mam was still at home. It felt like she was moms friend how was helping out. I just wanted to share this because maybe this can be a solution for the fact that you feel like running behind every time. But for the record, you are doing everything you can and you are ROCKING it!!!!! (Even if it doesn’t feel that way) xxxx

[@chelseyjohnson501]

Maybe it is normal to just feel this way as a mom. Just constantly taking care of someone or something. And not really having time for anything else. I have three young children and love them with all my heart. I'll do anything for them. Some days I just don't even feel like a person though. If that makes sense. I'm just there to take care of other people. Idk. Glad you brought it up in the video. It's an interesting topic. I don't have any mom friends besides me sister and sister in laws. Would love to hear from other moms about it

[@hanelno]

Fun story time, a cautionary tale if you will: My mother burned out and became severely depressed when I was 8. She was working full time, and on a Saturday would get up make a loaf of sourdough, give me breakfast, drive me to football, go to the gym in the meantime, pick me up, clean the house, make an elaborate meal with everything from scratch to entertain guests that evening… rinse repeat. Sound familiar to many of us? That severe burnout had her on bedrest for a year. Her brain has never fully recovered and she still, 24 years later, can’t handle certain stimuli at the same time (like going to an imax) because of the damage she did to her brain. This affected the way she could then show up as a mum and she still feels bad to this day for not ”giving us the childhood she wanted to” (it was still great btw). Anyways. We don’t get stressed from doing too much, we get stressed from lack of recovery. You can do a lot, but not at the same time as you are not resting. There’s time to get back into that in another season of life (talking to myself). ❤

[@Joannaa111]

You NEED to get a chopper! One of those ones where you put the veggies in and smack it down. It will save you so much time dicing! I just got one recently and it’s become my personality at this point 😂

[@SarahsDay]

I love cooking though and love using my Japanese knives!!

[@traceychapman4825]

I thought you meant chopper as in helicopter haha

[@ashleym.2506]

Don’t ever let your inner doubt or the haters tell you that no one wants to watch you or hear what you have to say. No lie, you are my favorite KZbinr and I check EVERY DAY for your videos haha Watching your videos feels like such an escape. You are killing motherhood, being a wifey and a total boss lady! From one Christian mama to another… you are doing great! Straighten your crown and keep doing your best, you are a daughter of the King and He’s got you! #overstimulatedmomsclub

[@meoalveo]

This vlog was one of my favourites ever! It’s so real,abadoning the organising, we’ve all done it! This is such a realistic life vlog, would love to see more!

[@jaystel2381]

You are doing a brilliant job Sarah. It’s so so hard. Don’t feel pressure to vlog. I can’t imagine having the energy for that in the newborn trenches. Your followers understand ❤

[@evolisation]

This video is so relatable for any mum with a baby and older kids. You're doing amazingly! I have a 7mo and 3yo and we share the exact same struggles. I keep reminding myself that it's just a phase.

[@sammyrei295]

6:09 👋 hi Sarah!! I have been here since the very beginning ❤❤❤❤❤

[@daisyclifton5210]

Me too 🎉

[@Sarah-rd9wn]

Me too!!

[@aleksandrabrooks1572]

My child haven’t slept for the 3 first years of his life… literally No naps, just power naps of max 20 min alone eventually on me for longer🤪ate non stop, never wanted to seat in a car seat, stroller was the biggest enemy…no bottle, just breastfeeding. Waking up every hour then from 1 till 4 am running around and yes I have tried everything and everyone …when he slept through the night at the age of 3 we didn’t know what’s going on 😂it almost killed us really hard time … now his almost 6 and the best thing I. The world ! Sending you lots of good energy and patience and strength! It’s very difficult mostly sleep deprivation someone who didn’t go through that will never understand it’s just something else

[@rebeccabravo6144]

I get it! My son (2) is also very active. He walked at 9 months & after that just started climbing everything. Benefiting his older sister because I used to be a helicopter parent 😂 I always say he was sent to me as a lesson. So I refuse to go anywhere that’s not outdoors or kid friendly until he’s a bit older!

[@emilypodschweit7556]

Anyone else feel a little sad when she was questioning why we watch her vlogs? Because we LOVE you! And love your family! You keep it real and there’s not a single other channel on KZbin where a busy mom keeps it real ! Thank you for taking time to upload! 💕💕💕

[@sharmilamcdonald1529]

No hate, I love the honesty, the rawness and realness of motherhood. Harlow on the bench is so real ❤

[@jensenparrish2382]

Just a reminder that REST IS PRODUCTIVE. As moms, especially SAHM, I think we feel the need to be super productive to prove our worth. But if you truly are hitting a wall and cannot think clearly or function, your body is screaming for rest. Easier said than done (mom of 4 here!) but give yourself Grace! Sarah, you’re an amazing mom! This is just a season!

[@sophieminhajuddin9221]

Wow your killing it even if you don’t feel like you are my boys are 10 and 11 and our daughter is soon going to be 8 and I find when they are younger it’s so very hard but I feel like as they get older and at school it’s crazy too as they have school after school activities but you just have to do your best while motherhood is such a blessing and a privilege it’s so tough mentally and physically especially when you have other children but keep going your doing amazing 😊

[@heather6404]

Oh ny gosh girl. I'm due in June with our second and i literally have promised myself and let my husband know that i am dropping as best i can the need fo feel productive, or to fill any free time with the pressure to do more instead of just sit down for ten minutes. I am the opposite of a procrastinator so it's tough for me to choose to not do anything when i know there are things to get done

[@greentree730]

I feel Mom's do too much sometimes. It is nice to have things clean and organized, and nap. Hire out some things. Sometimes someone hires a mother's helper. Someone who can work with you, change laundry, run to the store, or even a kid pick up, babysit short times while you run out, prep dinner? You can do it all, with full sleep. Sleep deprived and wanting the whole package might be tough?

[@KameronMarie-l5z]

Sarah, I've seen you struggle with a jar too many times. PLEASE hit the lid of the jar against a hard surface all the way around the circumference of the lid and it will pop right off. Everyone needs to know this!! Can people like this comment so more people know this? lol

[@amberhanrahan]

I appreciate the effort 👏 I can’t fathom making time to get all those different shots too! Yes, productivity is like a drug. But when opportunity presents for ‘me-time’ I prioritise laying down for at least 20 mins, put on a guided mediation and focus on breathing. I fall asleep every time! 😴 But if I told myself I was going to nap, I wouldn’t allow it! Self pleasure, meditate, nap, then an uninterrupted meal.. that’s my plan, if I’m lucky😂

[@KK-xm3oc]

Thank you for being so candid!! I just had my second baby and feel so drained! I always feel less alone watching your videos ❤

[@joanasantos3558]

Not a mom but I’m so inspired by your energy and good vibes. You’re doing a great job, the boys are such special little ones and your family is beautiful. Hang in there Sarah

[@SavannaTaylor-i7h]

Sarah!! This is the content we want girl! This is real!! You are such a busy amazing mother, and this is the phase of your life that so many girls our age feel! Everything you do is so relatable. You're doing a fantastic job and you deserve the world!

[@balu6777]

I just adore and love watching you. I casually found your channel searching for hpv info and you were honestly so helpful and gave so much positive energy. I healed and got pregnant 1 month afterwards, my baby is 6 months and is so funny and refreshing seeing myself in some of your situations. Please keep going!

[@Muffguff1]

The pressure you are feeling as a mum is called the invisible load...all those tasks and things we have rolling about in our brains every 2nd of the day! Its not just you! Loved the realness of this vlog :)

[@danicasawtell7148]

Lol! Thanks for making me smile! Even in this season you are finding moments to just be silly! You are an amazing Mum. But 100% find pockets of time for you!! You bloody deserve it Mumma! Some days cook beautiful home cooked meals, some days…. Get take out. Or get a loved one to cook for you? But I struggle with this too. As a Mum of two young girls. I struggle to just sit down and relax!! And I think we are guilty of putting too much unnecessary pressure on ourselves? Anyway! From one fellow Mumma to another. You are amazing. But seriously.. sit down hehe 💋 Xoxo

[@chiaracarissimi6950]

I've been following you since the beginning and I have to say that your vlogs are always my favourite. I don't know why but you just make me happy in a way and I'm more than interested in seeing your life as a stay-at-home mum honestly because you're such a rich and stimulating person! Love you ♥️

[@melokebeni2784]

6:19 I just spent the past couple of days rewatching your old videos because I enjoy them so much. It's honestly a treat when you post and you are one of my favourite KZbinrs/ influencers. So don't think that no one wants to watch your vids.

[@samanthavolk4577]

I'm curious if you've done a video at some point to explain healthier substitutes for someone who recently received your cookbook (eeeee!!), but now I'm trying to slowly replace my ingredients with your healthier options used in your recipes! I'm just noticing there are a LOT of ingredients I'm having to google on how to replace to use up my pantry supplies first! And some I'm not even sure what they are! Lol I'm a BIG newbie! If not, no worries, you're a busy mom, and I don't expect one made!! But I'm just searching your old videos atm and curious if I'll find one! 😊💛

[@ashlyntiara]

for tight jars, use a utensil and bang the sides to make tiny dents that release air pressure!

[@edenkrammes6401]

Ugh you’re doing so great Sarah! I just had my first baby within 3 days (I think) of when you had Harlow! 🎉 Saying a prayer for you guys now and I am inspired by you as a boy mum of three! 🥰

[@SheEquipsHerself]

Been here since your parents house, pre-Kurt!! Love watching you grow. Also, no one cares about your baby’s safety more than you, so don’t listen to the haters ❤😊

[@taylorkaufman4574]

You're seriously the best, Sarah! I've been watching you for YEARS! I have 3 kids as well, and it is so hard, but I absolutely do it ALL. Between mom, wife, boss mom with working. You're amazing!! I hope Harlow is doing better for you. ❤ I love seeing when you post it makes my day!
