Blanca's postpartum struggle... 

you guys are so focused on not traumatizing your kids they are going to be traumatized about that. You can only try your best and you are doing a good job dont stress out about it too much

I 100% have to agree with Jonathan even if Franco is only 2 they know they are smart and it’s important to teach them desde chiquitos what “NO” means because if not they become spoiled and want to do whatever they want when they want and no one can tell them no

Jonathan is right you do have to teach Franco consequences to actions ofc don’t over do it he did a great job like he said he wasn’t in a dangerous situation it’s best for him to learn from his parents not from the world. Now he’s more cautious with doors which was the main goal Blanca got to let your kids learn 1 way or another again it’s best if YOU show him instead of others because we want what’s best for them you have to take that with every aspect of their lives from doors to personal life experiences they’re going to go thru. Blanca is an amazing loving mom and Jonathan is definitely going to be the best person they’ll learn from. Perfect duo ❤ yall will raise amazing children together

Childhood trauma has hurt me immensely. I don’t write this for sympathy but at 6 I was put in foster care for a year and past around to different families for 3 months increments. I was finally adopted but into a “Amish” strict family hundreds of miles in the middle of New Mexico on a ranch. We were homeschooled and separated from all social life and electronics. I don’t know anything about tv shows, music artists, nothing. I graduated and then “ran away” at 21. Now I am suffer from so much stuff. I have no family at all. Besides my husband and babies. 😢❤They are my blessings and I thank God for them. All this to say i told my husband everything about me on our first date. I let him know I’m not normal. And I would be hard to date lol! Now we’re about to have our 9 yr anniversary ❤

It made me teary 9:35 because im those moms that doesn't get help. I still have my mom but shes not those moms that will help out when needed or while your healing... my husband helps for a few days or a week before he goes to work...and then thats when at 1 week of delivering i start doing it alk. Cooking, cleaning picking up and dropping kids off school...while taking care of a new born and dealing with your postpartum body and everything around it. Its super hard i wish i had help.. 😢

kids are so smart! they do understand so much than you know.

Honestly giving our kids confidence is key . Because that’s how they can also stand for themselves and have the freedom to try everything

Blanca Yea your partner also needs their alone time we all need it and so good for yourself..😊

Hi yall! Parenting is tough and never gets easier. Every year you learn something new and there are new needs for the child. It’s a never ending cycle. Focus more on your relationship and make sure yall are okay so the kids feel love. If the parents are not okay the kids won’t be okay in the long run. I say put your partner first and the kids will feel the love in the home. Cause if your mad at your spouse it can effect your mood and your kids won’t see the best version of you. My son is 8 and I learned this the hard way :(

I’ve read that when a child plays with his /her dad they reach the max level of oxytocin and when they get hugs from mom they also reach high levels of oxytocin that’s why they prefer to play with dad and cuddle with mom . ❤

Yes I’ll forever be grateful my mom was a gentle parent, never physically hit us, used bad words and always encouraged us to be who we wanted to be and made us feel safe and was so patient! And plan to gentle parent! Yall share wonderful advice

It’s tough girl. Three kids one in school a toddler, a 2 month old. It’s hard, no help. Everything just me and my partner. But still very thankful. We do what we can. Not try to over do it because that’s when it gets stressful. And yes you’re very blessed, but you didn’t ask for it. I didn’t ask to not have not have any help, it’s just life. As long as our kids are healthy that’s all that matters. Don’t over think it. Just be thankful you have your babies. I know it’s easier said than done, but you got this ! Remember you’re feeding your baby through you and it could affect her. I am too so I can’t stress it. She’s going to be 2 months on the 19th and she wants no bottles or formula which is stressful but I see it as she’s better being next to me while eating and depends all on me. See the positive through it all. God Bless you momma 🤍🙏🏼

You guys are breaking Generational Curses!!! This is amazing and all Glory to God for the wisdom and knowledge! You both are doing a Great Job! Keep up the great work you two and spreading that Wisdom! Also walk in Freedom in Jesus Name! 🙏🤗♥️

Jonathan makes Blanca sound like a crazy girl 😂😂

Hi yall ❤ I just liked to pop in and say this podcast hit home. Even though I don’t have kids, I always watch and listen. I grew up just like Blanca did. I feel where she’s coming from 100% i felt so heard by just listening to yall right now. Wow.. the inner child in me feels heard ❤️

Bless your heart Blanca🥺 I got teary eyed when you started empathizing with the mommas with little support. I’m a single momma but God is my support and he has never let me down or left me alone especially during in my pregnancy and raising my son. But this definitely hit home as a single mom. Please don’t let ANYONE guilt trip or shame you for the life God is allowing you to live🥹🙏🏼 Love you and you’re doing an amazing job momma. Everyday leave it all in Gods hands the hate, the guilt, the hurt and especially the things you don’t understand leave it to him♥️🙏🏼

I would love if you can bring ur mom to the podcast to talk about how she went through the struggle with ur dad please

Thank you guys for being so open and vulnerable ❤️

Good morning Blanca & Jonathan! Lately I’ve realized I haven’t been the best mommy, I just end up with tantrums all day and fighting. I don’t know where to start the change & I feel like asking myself weather it’s an inconvenience for me or if it’s bad for my kids is gonna be so helpful. I swear these podcasts are pushing patience onto me ❤ thank you both for sharing these tips/ experiences.

Since I started following Blanca and seen her become a mom and her gentle technique on parenting. I myself have implemented that in my life with my four kids! I am a single mom and even though their dad is around. Most responsibility is on me so to my kids I'm the mean parent! hearing them or being scared to come to me even though I lay no hands on them really made me so sad. I grew up with both parents and a really close relationship with my mom! Knowing my daughter would open up to my mom and not me or telling her grandma not to tell me so I wouldn't have to worry broke me. She is only 12 and hearing that made me question my parenting skills! I love to hear others so I can learn and grow as a person even if I have four kids or 32 years old. Because the trauma my kids are going through, I didn't have and I don't know how it is to grow up with just a mom\Dad.

I loved this podcast. It definitely hit home. I have 2 kids, and I understand what blanca is going through it's definitely hard . Thank you, guys, for always being so open with us.❤

Not Blanca equating TikTok to attending therapy 🙄 tell that to Jonathan's mom

I live for the podcasts every friday! I remember watching you guys back in the apartment you guys had and the sunflower merch blanca put out🤍 y’all have grown so much, may god keep blessing you and your family🤍

I never want the pod to end, I love hearing you guys ❤

I think this might be my favorite episode so far. Thank you!

I loved todays podcast, i like hearing conversations like this. This is the reason i love this channel. Keep doing what you're doing guys ❤

I’m currently feeling like Blanca and five months postpartum and I feel sad and then happy and then sometimes I just cry for no reason so I know I don’t feel 100% with my first son. I didn’t feel this way. I never felt depression or alone, but currently working on it and then I push hard every day because I want to be good for my kids.❤

Thanks for talking about this! For some of us, we end up going through all this all alone when your friends abandon you because you’re the first to have a baby. Like every new mom says, you truly don’t know until you go through it and now you’ll always be there for the next mom.

wow, loved this podcast. Made me think of so many things and put them into different perspectives. More podcasts like this please! 🫶🏼 love yall and Ms.Belen is adorable 🩷🥹

This is my favorite episode forsure ❤️ thank you for this.

Blanca and Jonathan, my respect for ya’ll has grown. I recently started creating content on TikTok and even just editing those silly videos are time consuming . I can’t imagine y’all who have great videos and find a way to edit and post. Especially right now in the thick of post partum! Yall are superhumans

Just know I was not feeling it at the gym this morning @5am . And I checked my phone and notification came out Yall had posted ! You guys helped get threw this!!! Love you guys🥰

omg been waiting for friday 🥹🥺 so excited to watch 💕

I love and admire both of your perspectives on parenting! Thank you for impacting our generation AND the ones we will raise with your advice 🫶🏻

Loved this pod , it was so real and raw 🤍🤍

Question (not in a bad way) ❤️ How come your dad doesn’t live with yall? If your mom & sisters lived there ?

Preparing my hubbys lunch for work while I listen 😍😍 5:28am

Thank you so much for this podcast!!

I hear Jonathan, and I hear myself😔 I don’t know if it’s the older child in me or that I have both my parents together still growing up as well with similar parents styles.. idk but this is the realest podcast I’ve heard 🥹

this really hit home i grew up with no parents my grandma raised me and my husband grew up with both his parents and i love that we both have different ways of seeing parenting but we agree to do the best for our kids even though one of us won’t agree with that specific thing i was never hugged or was told i love you by my parents and i make sure i tell me kids everyday how much i love them❤

I love this episode, currently raising a baby boy first time mommy. Our babies have the perfect formula to live a good life with this knowledge! More of this!

Love y’all and your conversations ❤

The entire episode Chef kiss. Great job guys as always ! ❤

I love this podcast. Both of you are amazing humans and I relate so much to you both. ❤

Omg Blanca you are so amazing and thank you for sharing deep insights of pregnancy. I just wanna say I have a nephew 3 yrs old very smart and his language and comprehension is so advanced reminds me of your baby Franco. Unfortunately my brother and the mom are no longer together so they share custody and I feel bad that him being so little has to go through that but I also see how amazing he is and adapts so well to it, even at such a young age. I just want you to remember that he is also adapting to a baby sister and eventually she will come to an age when he will be able to play more with her that he will feel so grateful to have a baby sister. embrace the blessings sweetie pie you are so strong and you have an amazing family and fans that adore you 😘 including me!

Blanca I completely agree with you about not knowing what it’s like until you have your own kids. I have been there so much for a friend because I now know how hard pp is

I watch every single podcast love y’all !❤

You guys crack me up and omg Blanca , you’re literally awesome bc YES. Nobody talks about how graphic postpartum is and honestly I felt the same way PLUS my man had gotten sentenced to prison only two weeks before I gave birth so I was going through it! But yea you guys are my fave , so funny and such a great couple. I’m rooting for you guys, ALWAYS❤

The fact that you guys have grown so much is amazing!!! Estoy muy orgullosa de ustedes! Que diosito los bendiga y siempre llene de luz sus caminos ❤ Blanquita te mando un fuerte abrazo ❤️ you are doing amazing girl! 💕

I have a 32 and a 27 and a 22 and I didn’t know about gentle parenting I did hit my kids a couple times in a traumatized way but I got help and God blessed us with a little boy who now is 12 and we try to always think before we take actions , I totally understand it’s hard being a parent and I was a young teen parent but I learned and got help .. it is out there .. love y’all this was a great podcast ❤

Thank you Blanca for speaking out about Post Partum. My journey was rough and I felt so alone with my thoughts. 🥺

Yey!!! It’s 5:43 in California ♥️ always looking forward to hear y’all this early 🤗 HAPPY FRIDAY!

I have 3 under 3 and I’m 9 months pp and it’s been the first time I’ve struggled with ppd. I’m alone all day with the kids until my husband gets home from work and it’s really sad to have no social life nor friends to talk to 😢I’m so happy you have the supportive help

I hope RU-vid lasts a long time or that you guys never leave us because I love the both of you but I also wish to know how amazing Belen and Franco grow up to be with the way you guys are raising them! 💕

Please do more couple counseling type podcasts 😂 makes me feel better about what I’m going through. Hearing you guys talk about your relationship makes me realize the issues we have are normal.

I have a 9 year old and a 9 month old, living in two different worlds. My baby was a new born and we were running from school, to gymnastics, to soccer with my nine year old. Didn’t have a nice relaxing day at home for months. Blanca enjoy the time you have with your baby girl and the help you have. I know that mom guilt is so real but focus on your blessings. Sending you much love 💗

I loved this podcast!!❤️

Honestly this whole podcast hit me ! I’m in my postpartum time en mi cuarentena with 3 kids trying to not traumatize them. Doing our best to parent. But I’m literally Blanca the soft one &&’ my husben is the firm one. It’s hard my first son is calm my second one is wild &&’ my baby girl she be sleeping all the time right now. Them to be confident strong and faithful. Dios los bendiga💕🕊️🙏

I relate so much with Blanca and her upbringing. Our moms have showed us that gentle parenting is possible but we have the great privilege of having good, present husbands

I am 43 years old and still learning. You guys are doing amazing. I hope i can be a better mom and mend my mistakes 😢

Yaaaay!❤ I’m getting ready for work! Just what I needed 🥰

Even if you had no village you would still be the parents that you are today guys. Of course a little harder but your intentions would be the same. I have no village but I'm still breaking generational curses and it makes me happy to know you have the help. Every journey is different and it's nice to see and hear that even with a village we still have similar issues because kids will be kids wether you are a single parent or not lol. You guys are doing great and Belen is such a cutie ❤

lol! You guys make me laugh with the whole locked door 🚪 😅 hay no! Too funny 😄

You guys are doing AMAZING! 🤍 Love y’all 🤓🤓🤓

Taking a Child Psychology course, seems like Jonathan parental style is Authoritative. “Children of authoritative parents tend to show self-reliance and independence, high self-esteem, high levels of activity and exploratory behavior, and social competence.” It’s a rough guess but this parent is both affectionate and brings control. A study was done with 2-7 year olds with this parenting style, so implementing discipline and consequences at an early age is effective. Because of social media, gentle parenting is a word used to describe permissive parenting which is low controlling and high in affection.

Happy Friday 🥰🥰🥰🥰 love watching the podcast 🫶🏼🫶🏼

Yay an upload, i be catching up with you guys while coming to do laundry . Saludos Desde NY. ❤

It does not matter how you raise your children. My parents are church ppl and my dad never got borracho or hit us. He wanted to raise us different frm what his dad the asshole was to him and his siblings. My mom was more firm but she's was cool. 2 of my brothers became drunks 1 a gang member and we were raised in a good home. No matter how gentle or mean you raise them they will always choose their own path and as parents we just have to pray that they choose to do the right thing. Cos as parents we knw we did our best.

Not me wanting to cry with this podcast 😕 because I’ll be in labor soon and then will officially have a newborn and 2 yr old 🥹🤍 . Love how Blanca is so real !!!

LOVE THIS PODCAST ♥️♥️♥️♥️

I 100% feel you Blanca I went thru the exact feelings about my toddler the mom guilt. Just the mom guilt! It’s like if it’s your mind against your own mind like the thoughts are just there and as much as u want them to go away they don’t. Thankfully mine went away with time. But I truly suggest you distracting yourself and keeping busy! I remember I would tell my hubby to take me out the house and we would visit my parents or the store or park or eat. I know I wasn’t suppose to much cus of la cuarentena but in that moment I didn’t care cus I didn’t want the thoughts to get me. Pls don’t forget that baby blues are normal and should go away and it’s just a hormonal thing that should level. If it doesn’t u need to seek help! Cus then it’s PPD

Breakfast & podcast time ☀️🤍

es difícil girl pero es algo que realmente no se habla siento que se debería pero realmente muchas veces uno calla para que luego no digan que somos exageradas . yo tengo 5 niños y tengo 31 años eh pasado por mucho pero siempre eh tratado de cambiar mi mente siento que yo sola eh tratado de ayudarme a no dejarme caer en depression o el posparto cuando sentía que estaba mal yo misma me decía que tenia que salir adelante y que tengo muchas razones para echarle ganas !! es difícil pero ay que echarle ganas !!!

Blanca sending love and prayers your way! 🤍

Great conversation had! 👏🏽🙌🏽

I’m the gentle parent and my husband is the ima raise them before someone else in the street does!! That’s his saying. (Edúcalos en la casa antes de Que en la Calle Los eduquen)

Hey guys, just listening in and heard Blancas sister they with you! . Would would you ever let your child Belen at that age go live with somebody else and I think that would be a great subject to talk about because I know a lot of kids that have resentment because their parents left them in another country because they wanted to do better for themselves, and the child has resentment. The parents have a guilt and I just think it would be a neat subject to talk about if y’all want to touch on that ever I would love your

Literally the best ever!!! Seriously this is all soo true I literally felt everything and every word Blanca said. Post partum is soo hard

Love you guys ❤

I love your video broadcast from the beginning to the end. Both of you guys are amazing,blessed,loving,wonderful, parents. A big shout out to Brenda and Jonathan. God bless Blanca and Jonathan and Franco and baby Belen and both of your family’s and all of your family and all of your friends. Lots of love and blessings to Blanca and Jonathan and Franco and baby Belen and both of your family’s and all of your family and all of your friends. From your family from RU-vid.🙏🌈🩶🩷🩵💚💛💙💜⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

I love the podcast in general, pero estás Topics I really really enjoy and love them. I have 3 kids and I wish I had the support system Blanca has. Right now, mi cuñada está embaraza (she has had 3 miscarriages) and we are all really happy and excited. Cada q los escucho pienso en toda la ayuda y consejos que le puedo ofrecer a mi cuñada y a su esposo. Thank you for sharing your experiences ❤ love you guys

Good morning to my favvvvvs!!! I agree on the podcast meet and greet 🥹💕

Yes!! ❤❤❤ you guys

Jonathan said “natural consequence” and I was triggered! Lol have you heard of Ruby Frankie 😅 ( but I get it wasn’t that deep) lol

I love this vlog. More videos like this. Different topics in relationship.

Happy friday my podcast favorito!! Awh by the tittle i hope our girly blanca is ok! Queen remember you are made for this and you are doing a great job we all love you girly💖🙌💕👑

I’m not judging you guys communication with each other but to avoid escalating arguments I would recommend being open minded to each other’s POV & not always wanting to win the battle or always be right. Iv been reading the Subtle Art of not giving a fuck & it talks about how everyone has different values which brings out diff. opinions on things. And like Blanca said as long as Franco is getting taught the right lessons/values then all that matters is you guys supporting each other in doing that. 🤍 I look up to y’all as parents! I don’t have kids yet but hope to be as patient as y’all.

Just in time to get ready for work💗

I’ve watched you guys since the beginning 💘

❤ amo amo amo este podcast que te recuperes pronto yo es como se siente cuando das a luz yo tengo tres niños no es fácil cuidarlos ❤❤❤❤❤❤

I am a teacher and the word no can also mean a boundary. Sometimes kids won't understand and they will keep asking why this and why that. But if you take time to explain the reasons behind your no, it is always received better than just flat out no. Because I agree no sometimes seems harsh but an explanation attached to it is better. Sometimes no, can be because mom and dad are tired.

Un VIP un VIP lol Never miss any episode ❤️love you guys

Tell me why I'm always cracking up when you guys argue 😂
