I just have to say thank you so much!! I’m 42 and definitely not pregnant but because of a hernia I carry my weight as if I was and it is so hard to find videos that actually help with that, hence the reason for looking at pregnancy videos, but your tips were actually really helpful to me!!!
Mate I have read the comments and I hate to be the bad guy but at the end of the day you are a man and men don't always have the luxury of stability. The rent is $600pw so increase your skills to earn more money or move back home with your son. I hope you get well and realise the world owes you nothing and you make your own destiny. Your son probably doesn't want to move into instability. Be strong for your son and teach him how to be a man. Don't complain about it because it won't solve the problem. The solution is simple, make more money and become financially secure enough so your son wants to be with you. You have a shit load more than most blokes out there with a massive online support network of complete strangers. Be grateful for what you have. Good luck
Now THAT looks like tortellini. I made some and watched a different video on how to fold them and they weren't quite right! They were delicious but just different shaped. Thank you and God Bless!
😂 haha I actually take that as a compliment 😛 “playful” is one of the words I like to use to describe my style! Obviously not to everyone’s taste but I like it 🤷🏻♀️😝
same here…we had 3 losses…now I am on progesterone injections and suppositories and finally able to get to second trimester. I wish you the best of luck.
Thank you for this Video, I'm a soon-to-be first-time mum in Australia, and like you rightly said there are not many birth videos out here for Australia mums.
Fair enough and accurate☺️ We can all call it what we like - I just like the term “baby bump” as I wasn’t intending to hide my whole pregnancy, just the bump for a short time before I was ready to announce it 🥰👍🏻
@@Laurenloveslaughter I can see what you are saying! The term "bump" can just be really confusing as it also is a verb. I also think its confusing because it is more of a contour of the abdomen- I guess it can be chalked up to semantics... but I worry about people throwing the term around as a joke (as I have heard before) VS someone who is actually in the realm of gestation.
at 28 seconds was the best disguise lol .. also padded bras can sometimes help depending on your body shape because it sticks out further than the belly and the clothes drop down like a curtain from your bust down. And double layer crape material that just drops
Good luck with having your second baby. I’m a midwife in England and they usually come quicker 😉 Edited to add, make the most of being in hospital for 4 days to get to know your new baby. Once you’re home it’ll be go go go! ☺️
Thanks so much Noelia! :) Bubby is now 8 weeks old (I'm a bit late putting this up haha!) and definitely came very quickly!! (about 2.5 hours from first contraction to being born!!- it was so funny watching this video back because I think I mentioned about 4 times how I was planning on getting an epidural - lol - that didn't end up happening!! All worked out perfectly though! Thank you again! xxx
I haven't seen someone beautiful glowing gorgeous when you you have a cute baby bump what brand of diapers are you going to use Pampers or huggies or luvs wish you and your family happilys
15 and going thru a pregnancy scare 😖🤚 i’m planning on hiding it for as long as possible (if i’m pregnant) because of my home situation, i don’t want to cause a fuss all to have a miscarriage. wish me luck.
So glad it can be helpful!! Oh yes I know these ones are quite pricey but I’m sure there are lots of similar options out there! All the best for your pregnancy and congratulations!! 💕💕💕
Hello! The overalls were from Sportsgirl (a few years ago but I think they may still do some similar ones?) but the white peplum top was a really old one from Forever New and they unfortunately don’t do it anymore! (I’ve been wanting to buy a replacement as it’s one of my fave tops, but haven’t found one yet!) sorry I can’t be more helpful!! 💕💕 thanks for watching! Xx
Hope it helped a little! Yeah, I can only speak for the Bandia ones as they’re the ones I kept but they’ve been pretty good! I also got some from Ripe maternity that were not mentioned in the video that I liked ❤️. Wearing them for my second pregnancy now and they are serving me well xx
Heya! Yeah I think they would work! Worth a try! My favourite pair of maternity jeans ended up being a pair from Ripe Maternity called the “isla jeggings” looked pretty much like normal jeans except for the front pocket parts that were stretchy so maybe worth checking those out too (although they’re an Australian brand so maybe not as easy to get hold of a asos is you’re not in Aus!) hope that can help a little! 💕💕💕
Great tips, thank you for sharing! Can't wait to do shopping for all these cute sneaky outfits. I don't want to announce to anyone lol. Especially at work, I really hope to find better one soon
Congratulations on your pregnancy! So glad the tips are helpful! Hope all goes well with your work and you can enjoy your pregnancy! It's such a shame that we need to hide these things sometimes but wishing you all the best!! Let me know if you have any other pregnancy style video ideas or suggestions! I'm hoping to make some more soon! xxx
Thank you for these videos, so helpful. We just bought a pasta maker. I binge watched all the videos on cooking with Nonna! She is the cutest.. You two make it look so much fun. Thanks again! I cannot wait for Nonna's pasta sauce too!! 🙂🤗
I never knew that they are tips for hiding pregnancy.... So I can now see that I'm not bring crazy on wanting to hide.... Am 8,weeks and I wish I could reach 6 months without being noticed ... Thanks
You’re welcome! Wishing you all the best! Yeah it’s a shame sometimes we need to hide these things, but I hope at least it will be helpful for you till you’re ready to announce it!! 💕💕💕💕 thanks for watching and commenting!! Xx
I recommend you adding the extra help of hiding your baby with non harmful body shaping undergarments like Spanx or control top tights since you have this added pressure. For wearing a set of suits I'd say safety pins expanding the waistband on the skirt, then the jacket done up. It's a little tight but when the bust is forward of the waist, you wouldn't ñook pregnant. To use your jeans that don't close anymore, put one of your hairbands into it, the type that's kinda like a rubber band and cut it to tie around the button so it fits. If the constant peeing starts to get suspicious, discreetly buy a pair of Depends and then take out the trash after using them. If you're still in school then bring panties in the backpack and put them on when classes end so your mother won't notice a lack of panties in the laundry. Squeezing a lemon into your water before bedtime helps reduce morning sickness by 65% according to experts and unlike ginger, lemon aren't associated with tea so they won't think it's odd you're putting some in the grocery store cart. Hope this helps you out.
im a married adult (not that it matters) financially independent and alllll the rest and I too need to keep it between myself and my husband until the baby is born and is 6 months old loooool some people just find the news hard
Sorry you have to hide it but hope it all goes okay! Definitely try the tucked in button down top trick! That was the best for me at least!! Good luck! <3 <3
You're so sweet Laura such a wonderful, caring gift. I'm sure she's going to love it. Nice to see you back. Always enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for sharing 😊💕
Ah that’s a shame about not being able to get leave! Sorry to hear that but hope everything goes well for you and that these tips can help a bit!! Congratulations!! ☺️💕💕💕
Loving those pieces Lauren. I like your style of clothing and the high waisted jeans look very comfortable too. Nice to see you back. Thanks for sharing 😊
