Period! Love Nicole and her family ❤

Agreed !

Girl yes! The mind definitely changes after kids. Intrusive thoughts are totally normal. We all have them but a person with an anxiety disorder definitely reacts and dwells on the thoughts more. It's awful. I've learned to just laugh at the thoughts and not let it scare me or spike my anxiety. I just roll my eyes and think " that'll never happen " 🙄 Just shows you are a good person and empath and that's why the thoughts scare you. Maybe look up OCD pure O to see if you relate? Kai is absolutely adorable. He looks like his daddy. It's great to see you back on here. I've watched you for years💕

[@Ashleyiza]

If you look up Ali Greymond KZbin channel she is SO helpful with this

[@alliemanzo6434]

Same, I had them especially with your first child. It’s a love so big and pure that you can’t imagine living without it and therefore our fear kicks into fear even when it’s so irrational. They do go away. For me when my first born was 2 years old I noticed I felt more at ease.

[@TheDdgtz]

@@Ashleyiza Yes she helped me a lot! 💕

[@linette8948]

OMg thank you for sharing. I love that perspective to laugh, and remember that it would never happen. You truly just made my outlook. 🤍

[@tanishawallace3661]

Wow this!! Also feeling every emotion they feel, my daughter is almost two and I feel like I am just now disconnecting from her emotional spazz but when she was first born, she couldn’t cry or scream without me tearing up or ready to have an emotional breakdown with her. This is another sector of parenting that no one prepares you for, emotional stability! 🥹

[@M0nicv]

“I talked to my wedding planner about Kai’s first birthday party… it might be a little extra” LMAO YOUR WEDDING PLANNER?! 🤣 I love it sm!! 🤣🙌🏼

I lost my mom a few months ago and when you shared how you called your mom to come over it was so special. I got so emotional. Cherish the time with her just as you cherish the time you have with your sweet baby boy ❤ I love to see the woman you are as a mother.

[@simple_naildesigns]

So sorry for your loss 🙏🏽

I stood in my kitchen, Drank my coffee, and watched your video like it was the news🫶🏾 I look forward to these.

[@lauraramirez3144]

Im sad that we don’t get these as often. But I’m also so happy & proud of you! Thank you for continuing sharing your life with us 💓💓💓

[@adriannamartinez1747]

The fact that I’ve been watching you for years and now you have one of the cutest families is amazing and I’m extremely happy for you ❤️❤️❤️

[@alykayeee]

I can confirm my anxiety increased so much after having my kids. I’ve struggled with it my whole life but it definitely got worse. I feel like intrusive thoughts are natural once having kids. It’s our job to protect them so we naturally are on alert all the time which in turn allows those thoughts to happen. I’m so sorry you had to deal with that. It’s the worst 😔 I hope Orange and Blue are doing okay ❤️

[@Ididntwantayoutubehandl]

Exactly me. We’re definitely not alone, which is why it’s so good to share our experiences and help each other. ❤️

[@catmama54]

It’s been so long. Kai is getting so big and what a beautiful boy he is. I hope Orange will be ok with his dental work. 🙏

[@leannes5412]

I’m so happy for you and your growth in life and as a mom. I’ve been watching you for like 10 years. It’s amazing to see the woman you are today compared to 10 years ago. Love ya girl. You’re amazing. You have a beautiful family🥰

It’s so sweet watching you grow!! I haven’t been watch as much as I did when I was younger but girlll you still doing your thang and married with a cute baby. May the universe continue blessing you

[@angelmarie082]

My daughter is 10 and I still get those thoughts sometimes Your story really resonated with me because my anxiety flared up after I had my daughter, at 30. I never really had anxiety at all until I had her I had to go on a low-dose anxiety med at one point, I’m doing much better now hang in there mama❤️

[@laurenwilliams3693]

Mmm

[@riccismith8648]

I missed ur videos and I was so excited to see this pop up. The baby is sooooo adorable. One toy he may like if u dont have it already is a bouncy seat and it spins and has toys all around it. My son Connor loved it soooo much.

[@leahkneeshaw7194]

You & Jeremy really suit being parents!!❤️

[@yolandamariesmith]

No idea how much I needed this. I’m seconds in and instantly feeling less alone… thank you Nicole. ❤️

[@mrsverovalera]

I can relate to the anxiety attacks. After having my first child I had so many anxiety attacks but thankfully over time got them under control. Totally normal!

[@tonilasHai]

You are literally the only Influencer I can sit and watch you talk the entire vlog!

[@pickle86]

Those thoughts are totally normal, loads of parents have them. Part of it is because they are so precious to you and you’re primed to protect them, so sometimes your mind gets carried away!

[@jackie461]

This took me back in time, when my son was a baby and my anxiety levels spiking, all while one of my kitties had gotten ill. Such a bittersweet period of my life. Good luck w everything. 🙏🏼👍✅💖

[@rubycastillo2359]

Did you know you were the first influencer i started following on KZbin? Your so real and genuine. Love ya....miss you🥰

[@alexandrasanteex1892]

That little boy is the cutest and blessed to have parents like you guys.

[@Clarebearz]

As a mom of 2 sooo many things in this video were very relatable lol Thanks for sharing this new part of your lives with us, Sending you lots of love Nicole! 💓

[@BeeKay4444]

Omg I LOVE those albums. You will be so happy later on. My son is 25 and I wish I had done more of this type of stuff when he was small.

[@enchantedtamara]

Awww I totally understand about intrusive thoughts with your baby - I used to get like that, too! And so sorry about your anxiety attack - they are the worst! Baby is getting sooo big! I can't get over how much he looks like his daddy! And your Pumpkin Spice nails are soooo cute!💗💗

[@melissamacdonald3281]

Girl, the thoughts happen with everyone!! I have had the most horrific, ridiculous thoughts go through my head and my baby is now 11. It happens for a while. It’s because we love so much.

[@mserrato20]

Kai is the cutest baby ever ! I’ve been watching you for a while (10 years) so happy to see you as a mama now. You and Jeremy are great parents.❤️ Mana playing in the background 🎶🤩

From someone who’s been watching you for 10 years, you’ve come such a long way. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!

I love how real and raw you are this is literally so relatable 🥺♥️

[@arlakennedy6517]

Ive been a Mother Baby nurse x 38 years...one word for everything you are feeling, thinking and experiencing....Postpartum Hormones...it can go on for a year or longer. You will come through it with flying colors mama!! Kai's a doll and you and hubby are amazing parents! Prayers up! Keep smiling that beautiful smile Nicole! 🙏❤️😍

[@BeeKay4444]

Ahhh Kai is absolutely adorable! So so cute. Motherhood is such a mixture of emotions and feelings. The anxiety for me was next level when my son was small.

[@b_r_a_n]

the little 'nicole keating' in the corner🥲🥲🥲🥲

[@michellemuniz2778]

Wow!! Do we all have that thought?! Literally you started the sentence “I’ll be holding Kai” and I thought in my head omg is she going to say the stairs because me! And you did!! Ok there was soooo much validation that I needed in the “episode “ of car chronicles ! Love Nicole so much for this!

[@imeldavaldez545]

It’s good to have music or sound playing while your baby is sleeping. This will help out soooo much and make him a heavier sleeper. small things like that can have such a great impact on your life. It’s tough being mom. I remember you always valuing your sleep lol

[@toribrownt16]

Not Nicole mentioning the “Rihanna Red”!! Lol I still get that as a recommended video in my feed 😅 💜143

[@Isss16]

Nicole thank you for giving us the photo and album info! Can always count on you to give the very specific details! ☺

[@GiftedLegna]

Postpartum anxiety is “a thing”. You’re not weird or the only one. Keep giving yourself grace & time. Motherhood has no manual, you’re doing great! He’s the cutest wittle chunkskin. I chuckled about the pictures. I was thinking the same thing when looking at pictures of my daughter- “I need to print these, heaven forbid I can find a charger or the file gets corrupted” chile!!! Lol

[@Phoenixprincessnessa]

I get anxiety attacks too but I’ve learned to handle them as I’ve had them for a few years now , I get them a lot when I’m alone or scared about something . I didn’t realize that panic attacks && anxiety attacks are two different things but thank you for the insight ! I’m going to google it when I’m done watching this video , I first watched you years ago ! I love how you did your hair congratulations on the newborn ! My newborn turned 1 month on the 18 ♥️ he has the same outfit you showed on the video 🥰 stay blessed 🙏🏼

[@kalishajnz]

After my brother passed I started sleeping with the tv or radio on, it helped soothe me but now I'm used to the noise. Idk why that loud ass cart made me laugh but it did. It's cool hearing that you guys plan on having another baby. 💜

[@Amy-dh6bk]

So glad I’m not alone with the ‘tv on/off’ issue! That baby of your is adorable!! Love watching, thanks for sharing. Ps, your mom is there for you, like you will be for your beautiful baby boy! ❤️

[@untracybul]

Hey Mamas. I had the WORST postpartum anxiety and it is COMPLETELY NORMAL! There’s nothing weird about it! You are doing your best and your little man loves everything you do for him! Hugs to you Mama. ❤️

[@iamericamarie_02]

As soon as I brought my babies home from the hospital I would leave the TV on at night or have music on to get them use to the noise it was such a big help because I could not sleep at night with out the TV on

[@Zelina1321]

I'm so freaking happy for you Nicole. I literally grew up with you. The first video I watched of yours was the diy ombré hair 11 years ago! 🥹

[@Allthingscristal]

The fact that i still have those thoughts with a 8 year old and 1 year old, totally normal. The big 1 is a huge reason to celebrate and do what feels best to you. Kai is so biggg omgg time flies. Im alone with my kids mostly and i freak myself out every night checking doors and what not. I love your vlogs (even if its 1 a month) lol and been a viewer for years. Please have a play date with carli ! ❤️🙌🏻 we need thatttt full circle moment!! Xoxo

[@veronicayzaguirre2029]

Girl, the first birthday is always gonna be extra! It’s a one year celebration that y’all made it and they’re totally worth it! Be extra and hire a photographer; it’s totally worth it

Intrusive thoughts are very real, it has about to do with many factors. I realized me cleaning my diet eliminating meat & dairy & adding more fruits and veggies they’ve been almost non existent

[@krislachiva2675]

Watching you be a mom is my fav. You’re such a great mama 💙 Kai is so lucky to be your son! I haven’t watched you since day one, but I started watching you when I became a mom bc I finally discovered KZbin, so it feels like we’ve come full circle lol.

[@richievanessa85]

I do the same thing . I have anxiety and whenever my bf is not home I have to have the tv or a light on. When he’s home I can sleep without the tv on because then I feel safe. Your not the only one girl so don’t feel alone love.❤️

[@kristenlima7945]

omg 1. he is the cutest baby ever!! and 2. that is the best playpen I've ever seen!

[@starismalej8202]

Those thoughts are completely normal! At times annoying but they are always there lol my boys are 14 and 4. I’m currently living with anxiety and depression and being a mom you’re always on high alert with everything! It’s tiring 😩 but they make it so rewarding ❤️

[@ariathompson3920]

I related to SO much of this- from breastfeeding to intrusive thoughts to anxiety and House of Dragon almost being too much! Thank you for sharing so honestly of yourself, nice to know other people are going through it too 💗💗💗

[@ashleymoran8006]

Kai is SO sweet and handsome. I can’t handle it 🥺 I love how real you are about your motherhood journey. The anxiety is real and our brain changes for sure. I have the WORST thoughts sometimes, for absolutely no reason. Over time things will get better and when you and Beebs are away from Kai and have time to yourselves, enjoy it as much as possible!! You cannot pour from an empty cup; don’t put yourself on the back burner forever mama ❤️🙏🏼

[@claudiacarolina3128]

GIRRRRRLLLLLL - so many things I could relate to in this vlog haha .. i kept nodding "uhhuhhh" with everything you said ... mom thoughts, squeaky carts, brushing hair, .. sending you love

[@priceliss]

He’s honestly one of the cutest babies I’ve ever seen!!!😍😍 God bless him!

[@kristamt9752]

I totally feel you!!!! I have anxiety to begin with but after my son it heightened like crazy!!! My poor Mom did a lot of running in the night to come calm me as my baby Daddy worked out of town. Thank you for being honest ❤️

[@TheBeautyBudgetMama]

The anxiety is totally relatable! Sending you love and hugs. I really think us moms deal with so much that some times our systems go crazy.

[@heatherholyland157]

[@devyn1994]

I know when my kiddos were teething they slept like crap and did the same - crying a ton, inconsolable and bad with sleep and naps. Love watching these videos! Such an amazing person! And you’re so relatable and real! ❤

[@Gothmother78]

The intrusive thoughts never end when you are a mom, lol. My sons are now 25,23,11 and 9… and I still can’t stop thinking things and trying to figure how I will prevent them! It’s the worst! Your baby is soooo precious ❤️

[@mrs.rebekahmarie6945]

I had those same thoughts with my first one. I never told anyone because I felt so crazy. Years later I learned that’s part of Postpartum depression. So glad you are talking about it. You are not alone.

[@ecc4l]

I must say you are completely a Mom! All the feels of this whole video from the anxiety, to being scared of certain things you enjoyed, to “those girls were completely talking about me” it’s the Mom package!! 😂 we can do it! Mom power! 💪🏼

[@pvm0723]

Girl postpartum anxiety is very real. And with it comes the intrusive thoughts. I definitely had them. And it sucks sometimes. Don’t be afraid to talk to someone or ask for help

[@michellef609]

Omg! I started watching you a little bit before you had the Rihanna red hair. I cant believe how fast the years have passed by 🥺

[@NaturallyNoni]

I had bad anxiety too after my first and I still have it from time to time. You’re not alone! Postpartum comes with a lot of changes and is so hard sometimes.

[@SweetFace11607]

Absolutely! Your entire world after having kids is night and day! Everything changes and it’s because the love you feel for your baby is the most intense and fulfilling. Your instinct to protect is at an all time high and unfortunately the mind also thinks the worst as a result. My oldest is 24 and youngest is 7 and it hasn’t changed! One day at a time! Hope your anxiety stays at a minimum. You’re doing great!

[@SweetFace11607]

Thanks Nicole! If it’s possible to pass along the prize to someone else, please do! I’m thankful for your time and effort making videos and sharing your life. As a mother who also works from home, It’s hard to make friends (and it’s hard to trust people to be honest!) so I’m so so so thankful you make videos because I feel like we’re Friends and you’re directly sharing your life with me. If that made sense!

[@SweetFace11607]

Also, a tip on teething… I get a washcloth and run it water… get it damp and put in the freezer. Babies love “chewing” on the softly frozen towel and it helps with the pain .

[@arianafigueroa3132]

Omg so relatable about the intrusive thoughts! I go through that often!

[@MsJaymar00]

Omg girl that is a miniature Jeremy 😂😂😂😂 my daughter turns 1 this Saturday and I’m so happy we are going through this together ♥️ feels good to hear one of my favorite KZbinrs is going through similar situations ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@chelsea_jackson]

They sell baby knee pad and non slip sock combo packs on Amazon that you should try for Kai. We don't want him hurting his little toesies digging them into the floor. Also to help with the tv situation next time try sleeping with an individual airpod. 1 ear for you and 1 ear on Kai.
