I’m 40 and breastfeeding my boys was the hardest thing I every accomplished. Labor was hard but this was an everyday challenge for at least 6 weeks. Don’t give up though it gets easier!!

[@rachael.b.87]

Love this video! 💞 I’m almost 3 weeks postpartum with my 3rd daughter and totally agree about breastfeeding… it’s hard at first but 100% worth it. I’ve learned that it’s different with each baby… truly a learning curve.

[@JillsCreativeLifestyle]

Seeing your grandparents with baby girl 😩♥️♥️♥️ love seeing how well you and James work together. Killing the parenting game right out the gate. So much love to you and your beautiful family. Thanks so much for sharing ♥️♥️♥️

[@nicolesilvernell]

I just found your channel and I am LOVING the honesty and transparency ✨

[@MarissaLace]

Thank you so much 🤗

[@nicolesilvernell]

@@MarissaLace just watched like 6 months worth of your videos today 🙈😂 your content is so good

[@carolyn8320]

You would love -La Leche league -they are the most incredible earth mothers! They don’t judge with any of the different ways you might want to do things.They made everything so wonderful for me! I kept going to meetings with my daughter until she was over three years old. Take nursing week by week. If you nurse for two weeks terrific! If you nurse for five years great! Whatever you do is individual to you and everything is a win! Remember when the baby sleeps/naps- YOU SLEEP!

[@MercedezRodriguez]

This was perfect! Lovely to hear your go-to’s one week home! Thank you!!!!!!!

[@honest.homemaker]

The Haakaa helps a ton for when you’re feeding from the tap, and need something to catch the other side! Lifesaver! She is beautiful and you’re doing an amazing job, mama 🤍

[@clairelizabeth22]

We busty ladies have a whole different BF journey, for sure! I love BF but “setting up shop” was definitely my reality! Bless this beautiful family!

[@MarissaLace]

YES

[@Bellepepperr]

Motherhood looks amazing on you! I’m so glad you guys are all doing amazing 🤩

[@MarissaLace]

Thank you!!!

[@stephaniedawson910]

Definitely wish more people talked about all the things that go into breast feeding. Lol I had like a nipple suction thing, a shield, all the things lol I was so bummed I couldn't just whip it out and feed my daughter. We eventually got better at it but also supplemented. Fed baby is best. You are doing so great! You look fabulous! I swear you and Mr manifested look even more infatuated with one another. So sweet!!! Love to all!!! 🥰

[@KayleeHoggan]

I just wanna say that I freaking love you!!! You inspire me!! I am pregnant now and I am so glad you are sharing things. Some things even, that I did not know, so thank you!!! You’re amazing mama!!!! ❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️🥰❤️

[@MarissaLace]

Thank you!!!!

[@jesicalynndemetrio2018]

Your partner is so sweet and chill!

[@jackietorres2444]

i am really enjoying these videos, marissa! i am 20 weeks pregnant and watching your videos is really helping me prepare for a positive birth experience. i am looking forward to a “first time mom’s must haves” video. 👶🏼💕

[@MarissaLace]

Yes those will def come! Ily!

[@katelynstookey9544]

The most amazing feeling! I HIGHLY recommend a haaka if you don’t have one. Helps save so much milk from being lost. Happy healing 💕

[@MarissaLace]

I have one and have really been loving the Elvie curve more!! I def need to give my Hakka a few more goes!

[@demiharper9817]

Protect grandma and grandpa lace at all costs. 🥺✨

[@stephaniedasilvaox]

Here watching! Better late than never! 💕

[@frandiaz9075]

Swaddles are life!!! For me, such a hack for baby to sleep more ♥️

[@2231michelle]

The worst part of my hospital stay was the lactation consultants coming in to “help.” I definitely felt pressure from them and it was so uncomfortable trying to use flimsy pillows. It was much easier at home! I’m so happy you’re having a great BF experience!

[@MarissaLace]

Hahah the flimsy pillows!!! The nurses and consultants all were amazing i think yeah just my experience was i felt too much pressure to get it right! I’m sure some people LOVE having all the hands on help!

[@xoTaraNicole]

You are so inspiring! You are juggling so much but the happiness and joy you have as a new mom is so genuine! You both are doing so amazing as new parents and I’m so excited for the vlogs to come!💕

[@xoelisamarie]

Tell grandma lace I said ScoDucks! Glad to see postpartum going so well for you! Sending you love always

[@celinatalk]

You are doing amazing!!! 💕 She is perfect!!

[@raecat90]

So proud of you! Breastfeeding is hard work but so rewarding!! Awesome job Momma

[@JaymeeLeigh]

Literally diapers are life after labour. pads? we don't know her LMAO. such a life saver. my #1 recommendation for new mommas.

[@MarissaLace]

Omg yes i hate the pads

[@mariaisabel204]

Hahahahaha I felt that I pooped this morning you pooped this morning !. Your the best girl lol 😂

[@nicoletyro4554]

Your glowing mama!!! 🤍

[@JillsCreativeLifestyle]

The affirmations with baby girl…best mama ✨♥️ and miss Hailey’s head popped up checking on you guys.

[@MarissaLace]

I love that so many people commented on this because i didnt even realize i was! This is how i talk to myself and the dogs hahah!

[@SuzRenee1984]

You’re doing awesome mama! Beautiful video!

[@laurabarkin904]

Ollie swaddles are the best!

[@gracens1380]

Congrats on week 1!!🎉

[@hayleyblake3311]

Breastfeeding is so hard! I totally felt the same about never seeing anyone have to set up so much to do it and position the baby perfectly etc but it won’t always be like that! Now at 6 months I can just whip it out and don’t have to do anything special.

[@MarissaLace]

Hahaha right?!! It was so funny to me! Such a learning curve!

[@bratmari]

It gets even easier too after that. My son drank breast milk til 17 months and they just know what to do after a while!

[@blushingbits7487]

I used the breast friend with my first and the down part for me is I felt attached to it. I needed it whenever I nursed 14 months lol. So going out was planned around next session cause I knew I needed it.

[@MissRachelMarie]

You’re amazing- so happy for you both

[@MarissaLace]

Thank you love!

[@ChelseaBland0511]

Wow you are a rock star!! Way to go Mama

[@monicawright3697]

You’ll be able to do all that down the road. The first baby isn’t always the easiest. I found that laying down was the easiest way to nurse because I could rest while feeding her.

[@thestylediet8843]

hey girl - congratulations! where are your sweatpants and cream distressed sweater from??

[@MarissaLace]

Sweats are target and sweater is Tj maxx from last year!

[@mirismear2658]

Mariss.. You should be so proud of yourself! Look at you! And Mr. manifested/grandma and grandpa lace! You guys are doing such a good job! Congratulations 💜✨

[@AG-yh6wq]

Breast feeding gets easier, you don’t have to set up shop every time, you can start wearing shirts/clothes again, and it becomes enjoyable. Try the laying down position it works wonderful w a larger chest. I’m still bfing at 17 months, we can’t give it up, it’s so comforting for her and I know she’s getting great nutrition so it’s still working for us.

[@tdubb77]

I am just so happy for you 🥰✨

[@gracens1380]

Yes, I am completely with you about breastfeeding! It is so full on and absolutely No One conveyed this to me. But I was able to do it for a bit with both kiddos am was glad for what I could give them. If you ever need/want to supplement, my kids did well on the Earth's Best Organic Gentle formula.

[@Lins.0089]

I took a stool softener after birth. Was nursing after eating some creamy pasta and got the bubble guts. I screamed for my husband to grab the baby and RAN to the bathroom. Never in my life had I come so close to shitting myself.

[@TheJuna1989]

I fought my the swaddle... I don't know why, but they are a game changer!!

[@MarissaLace]

Hahahah swaddling is so tricky

[@Nicole_Ashley95]

I got a bunch of swaddles for my baby to hate them 😂 he has slept in just a sleeper since like 2 weeks old

[@bratmari]

Btw when you add text to your videos they go too fast before I can read the whole thing. Can you leave it on for a second more?

[@kariolsen791]

Breastfeeding is so hard. I am having my third baby next month and hoping to successfully BF this last baby of mine. Only breastfed for 2-3 weeks with my other two because I just could not figure it out. Learning as we go! Finally feel prepared this time around!!! You are glowing Marissa, motherhood looks beautiful on you! 😘

[@MarissaLace]

Thank u love! Agreed it has some tough moments and requires patience! Feels like we are getting the hang of it now!

[@kariolsen791]

The fuckin puppies snuggling in the covers with u and their daddy 😭😭😭😭 ur fur babies look so content and happy

Omg the dogs are loving the baby so much! Trying to be super intentional about extra love and attention for fur babies too! Hailey and Brody got a trip to the spa groomer which they love and all the dogs have been getting daily rides 🤣🙌🏻

Mr: Talking about scrubbies on the tooth brush Marissa: I just birthed a human go take a nap love u

[@heathermurphy2860]

BF was seriously the hardest thing for me. Like labor and my CSection were a breeze compared to BF. I had a really tough time mentally the first three weeks because we had issues and I ended up going to exclusively pumping with some formula supplementation. I had to do what was best for he and I and BF was just making us both upset. It was the hardest decision with trying to let go of guilt and failure feelings. We’re almost 6 weeks now and it works for us and both are happy! Therapy has been a huge help too with dealing with it all.

[@MarissaLace]

I love that!!!! All about making the best choice for you and baby!!!

[@aniovakimyan3258]

I literally just finished watching your labor and delivery video, and this popped up. How crazy is that?

[@MarissaLace]

Yay!

[@soniapadron2780]

Love it🥰

[@Msseawitchh]

Also, Bf with larger ones is rarely talked about. It’s a whole other technique!! Keep up the amazing work!! 💫

[@MarissaLace]

It’s a different game 🤣

[@MakeupbeMegan98]

What breast pump do you use??

[@daniellejoy116]

LADY no one talks about how rough breastfeeding is 🙈🙈 I just had my first 5 months ago and I wish I would had researched more!
