Could you do a packing video for your hospital bag in a vlog or make a whole video on it?😊 and the baby shower looked awesome! We are both getting close to meeting our little baby boys💙
If you clicked on this video and you were just diagnosed with MS, I am telling you from lived experience, you are going to be okay and you're going to be able to figure this out. I was diagnosed at 26 and now am 39 years old. Medications for MS are changing the long-term outcomes of this disease. You can get your education, fall in love, have adventures. You might have to get used to being in medical spaces on occasion and you will get SO good at understanding medical insurance, but you will adjust more quickly than you think. You've got this.
We have two dogs, ( a blue nose pitbull and a shihtzu) and it’s so sad because they do get forgotten a little in the early stages of parenthood. You’re so busy and sleep deprived that it’s hard to make the extra time. We were so blessed with friends and family taking the dogs for walks or even overnight stays to keep them entertained 😅 my daughter is 2.5 and now they are all besties. It’s so cute. 🥰
Hello everyone , this video made me tear up , I’m currently 26 & was diagnosed in September 2019 … & today June 23,2024 I’m back in the hospital due to my vision.. similar symptoms of what you were talk about it .. I came on RU-vid today to try to get some motivation bc I thought I was alone 😢.. & I’m not, I do feel better … it’s going to be okai ❤
I did the same. I waited to start treatment, I thought I would just fix my habits and do what they did in the documentary, 4 months in and I had my second relapse. Just like everyone says in the MS society: your MS is benign until it isn’t. Your next relapse might leave you completely paralyzed.
I feel like I still haven’t come to terms that my daughter is the same baby I grew in my body 😂 and she’s 5 months old. It’s so weird. It feels like a distant memory and she’s been in my life forever. It’s a really strange thing to go through! Just remember to take it day by day, moment by moment. Try not to think too far into the future because it feeds our anxiety. ❤️❤️
I can totally relate with what you were saying about pregnancy and realizing that your life won’t be the same after your baby is born. Personally for me it felt like I could only mourn my life with no baby only when my daughter was born. Before that, even though I knew, you can’t really realize it. She is now 5 months and we are living our best life. Definitely an adjustment though, just keep doing what you are doing, everything will be fine 😊
Once he is here you will figure it all out trust me life will happen and everything is going to workout . Your going to ask yourself what you did before you had him and know that he is what life is all about
I had a guy tell me that I must be hungry waiting in line for a breakfast sandwich and at the time I laughed but I wish I would have went off on me never say anything like that to a pregnant woman so rude I told my bf at the time and he said he would have said something
I appreciate your vulnerability on here. I totally understand where you are coming from. As a mother myself, but to an 18 year old I actually am going through similar emotions but on the opposite side. My son is about to go off to college and he won’t be at home. My emotions are all over the place. I don’t know what life is like without him and it makes me sad. Sending you all the hugs and love. I know it seems like a lot right now and it is but it is the most rewarding thing that you will ever have happen to you. Sending all my love.
As a mom to three, I just want to give you a big hug. I remember feeling the same things you are when I was pregnant with my first. While having a baby is such a blessing, it’s also very scary. Two things can exist at the same time. I’ve been around babies all my life, but absolutely nothing compares to when it’s your baby. The unknown is terrifying. You were made to be this sweet boy’s mama and no one on this earth will know him better than you. I know you don’t need reassurance, but I’m just here to validate your feelings.
Thank you for sharing your vulnerability! I’m 34 weeks as a first time mom and can relate to how you are feeling so much. 🥹 Definitely feeling very emotional lately! I’m proud of you! You got this mama ♥️
Aww I’m a mom of two and I can tell you, I felt the same way with both pregnancies! All your feelings and emotions are so valid. But I promise you everything is going to be ok, you have an amazing support system. The anxiety of the unknown is scary but you will be a natural once you hold your son and all those worries will go away. You are doing amazing. ❤
We are due around the same time. I think you may be a week or so ahead of me. This is my 3rd. I will have 3 under 4. Motherhood is ever changing and everyday is different. I just try to have an open mind and go with the flow. You got this. You will be a great mom❤❤
Motherhood comes in stages and there’s no easier parts. Which I wish someone told me cause I kept “waiting” for it to get easier and it’s just different types of hard as they grow up. The first year of their life is definitely challenging, you’re learning to be a brand new mom all while keeping this little human safe AND being a wife. So just know that you’re not alone, feel your emotions and ask for help. ❤ support is what we need.

I am 72 with ppms. Diagnosed about 25 years ago. I assume you were diagnosed with rrms. Have heart that they have excellent meds for rrms and you may have only minor symptoms. I have a friend who is my age and is 25 years in with rrms. She still works, is active and has only minor deficits.
I am a first time mom as well and we have used the Moms On Call as a reference ever since he was a newborn - it is a lifesaver & I definitely recommend using it to reference when needed! 🤍
You are going to be the best mother to your son. Always follow your instincts, they are never wrong. Never forget you are the mother and you know what is right for him. ❤
So sorry you’re going through this. Can I ask if you’d consider dietary changes which seem to be helping people with autoimmunities and other serious conditions? Keto? Carnivore? Joe Dispenza meditation (he’s helped many people to heal themselves)? Trauma healing? Fasting? I don’t mean any disrespect but I have heard of many people healing by significantly reducing on their carb /sugar intake. Your body is a mean healing machine! Keep us posted.
Mine started with a mini stroke in 2017 and it was scary. Never saw a thing again. Hit my head at work in 2019 and they did an MRI and found the lesions on my brain. Didn’t have another onset until few weeks ago in April 2024 when I was working on a car and had a flare up and it caused my words to start slur real bad and just cleared up a week ago and I don’t feel myself. This does suck I have 3 kids and they’ve already lost their mom. I have to stay strong for them. They make medicine almost impossible to get or afford and that’s what scares me more than anything
Can you do a baby names I love but won't (or might) use video? Also yes every time I tried to have my husband feel baby move he would stop haha now he's almost 11 months old. Goes by so fast💙
Third time mom here. My biggest piece of advice to a first time mom is to prepare however you feel is necessary. Just take it all in with an open mind (very similarly to going into labor itself). It’s so important to remember that all the books, courses, etc. are solely based on someone else’s experience with their baby. My first two kids are complete opposites. Even my pregnancies with them were polar opposite. My first and third babies are carbon copies of each other not only in looks but also in temperament. All three are girls. Having a baby is all about trial and error. There are ebbs and flows and you will truly know best the second you meet your baby for the first time. Congrats and get ready for the best moments ahead 🩷
yeah girl, you will be shocked how naturally it will come to you when he gets here. i think social media is ultimately detrimental to a new mom. yes some stuff is helpful here and there but overall it’s toxic.
I’m so traditional I need traditional invitations and RSVP cards and hard liquor lol. But we are drinkers it will definitely be missed if we didn’t have it. Like you said do what’s best for you it’s your wedding. Great info on the dress I’ll be looking into a rack dress now
I was dx'ed when I was 22, just after graduating with my BA. It was so scary. I'm now 46, and while I have some small issues along the way, the treatments available now are amazing. If you ever need a friend to listen, I'm here.
