Thanks for sharing. Going 0 to 5 is quite something, and even with fertility treatment you couldn't guarantee that outcome. Asking for financial assistance whilst you get your feet on the ground is absolutely fine - people can help or not as that is their choice. Starting to put things on RU-vid is also a good idea - it's a potential income source and with a family of 7, that can only be helpful. You seem like a decent couple who just really wanted a family - I admire your persistence, and I wish you well in this great adventure.
❤❤I’m so happy to see they’re all doing awesome. Well done mommy & daddy❤❤❤❤❤ Welcome to parenthood, I’m a momma of 5 almost grown children, 30,27,25,22. & my little tweenager 12 year old. I can’t imagine having them all at the same time. Im also a nana to 1 year old twins Harper & Isaac 🩷🩵 Life is a rollercoaster & you’re for sure going to be on one for a long time so enjoy the ride♥️. Looking forward to watching these beautiful little bundles of joy grow. I’m a little behind as i have only just come across you on RU-vid so have a ton to watch & catch up on. ❤ Sending you all huge blessings from England. Lots of love ❤
I'm praying!!! My husband lost his mom to breast cancer while he was caregiving for her. Several years later, then we both ended up caring for a close friend whom we called Pops since was like a dad to me. He also passed about 3 years ago. I will pray you won't have to go through with the same pain. I will pray that, like your children, another special miracle will be given to you, God willing, that the Lord will heal your mom🙏
Thanks! I have been waiting. Also, I understand the delay. Singletons are a handful. Then twins, trips, quads, quints, etc....anyway, I admire you sweet people. Your quints are really thriving. Take care. Sending good vibes.
Hi- have you considered a private flight with the babies in September or October? There are many plane owners who would volunteer their jets to fly your family home. Angel Med is one charity dedicated to medical flights and you qualify. There are MANY options. Please let us know if we can reach out to these organizations on your behalf.
So much joy and love to your new babies and family, love you all, proud of you all and wish I could hug everyone ! AMAZING …..God Bless and thanks for sharing 🎉❤ 4:13
I have just found this channel, I'm in Australia. I look forward to your journey. As for the haters just let it go, you have more love in your life than they will ever have. Besides you won't have time to give a rat's anyway lol. Love and peace to your beautiful family 🙏🧡
Really enjoy seeing your family. And as an Arizonan, I'd like to apologize for the extreme heat this year. 😆 Next time, plan to need to be here in January and you'll love it. 😄 I don't see Mom being talked over. To me, looks like Dad is just trying to give Mom a break and be the one in charge of videos, take that off her plate with all she has been going through. Super cute family! Thx for sharing your lives with us.
Congratulations on the birth of your babies ! I found your name from Jamie Scott. I believe the lord only gives you what you can handle and from watching your videos, it’s apparent that you will both be awesome parents ! ❤ from Nova Scotia Canada 🇨🇦
So glad to hear the babies are doing so good! And glad that Stephanie is doing so well! I found you guys from Jamie (5 two love) giving you a shout out! You guys are in my prayers
Y'all are the cutest. Sorry you've had to deal with this hot summer in Phoenix but I'm so glad the Quints are in a good NICU! You guys are doing so well and I can tell the staff must be super comforting. I worked in a step-down NICU unit for many years and while I know you're on camera so not all emotions come through, your calmness and excitement make me smile. Congratulations on your new journey!
I can hear Stafenie. Why are people soo jealous and hateful these days? If you don't like the idea of the GoFundMe page, fine! Leave it and don't just throw out all the negative comments! I think we can only feel with others once we ourselves have had hardships in our lives and have needed support from others. It makes me sad to see so many haters these days.
Why do people like you, always think of JEALOUSY! I’m not jealous and i don’t hate this couple! This popped up in my feed and i watched and commenting , that’s my choice. A GoFundMe is the easy way out, times are tough for many . Everyone goes thru hard times in life , waiting for others to finance your family is the easy way out. They spent a lot of money on fertility treatments they knew the consequences,multiple births. They should have been ready for it and not think ,OH I CAN JUST DO A GOFUNDME or someone else can do a GOFUNDME!
Doubling down - this popped up u have a choice not to watch and if you dont like why be negative - i guess you dont want them to get help because you want it - i mean thats jealousy - coveting - we all have the right to do whatever we want - even you with your negativity can exist -
@@casaducos lol, i’m not jealous that’s insane, I’m a 70 year old mother of 4 ,i have a set of triplets (all girls) they just turned 43. I also have a son a 6 grandchildren. I’m a retired nurse, so please I’m hardly jealous of anyone at my age. smh
yes, she is the STAR, and the Dad is quite amazing too. He is soooo involved and one can tell how happy and proud he is !! What an impressive guy !! Those babies are more than adorable !! 👶👶👶👶👶 xoxo 🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼
I think they are learning how to present themselves to the public as a couple/family and that will get better as they grow as a channel. I do like the couple and I don’t think it’s all about wanting money. I think he was honest when he said he wanted to be home as much as possible to help his wife with the babies and be supportive and not be gone all the time. She will be overwhelmed to say the least. I don’t fault him at all for trying to bring in extra money for his family and wanting to be there himself. She obviously would rather him be there more than have others in and out all the time and have to pay people or even volunteers from their church. I can’t imagine the expenses of just formula (maybe eventually)and diapers that will come with 5 babies. I hope they get companies to reach out to them. Most people in this situation would need financial assistance. Someone is going to always try to find fault in how a person handles a situation. Don’t judge. There is such a threat of Covid, flu and RSV this winter, I hope he can stay home as much as possible. If you don’t like them… don’t watch them. People should just be nice.
This just popped up on my feed and I love it and thank you for giving me something positive and happy and incredible to watch - please continue doing what you do and dont listen to anybody except eachother as far as youtube - i cant believe the audacity of some of these comments but cowards and fake confidence hide behind a username- oh and i can hear your wife just fine - and its not everyday someone has 5 babies and if they do ivf its rare they keep em all - so GOD BLESS YOU it will all be ok!
Congratulations 🎊 on your new family❤I just wanted to say thank you for sharing your journey with me ❤I wish it could be more, but i donated 10.00 ❤️ Im a greatful great grandma 👵 from Toledo OH and enjoying your family ❤
Send it please stop being so ugly to them if you don’t like the way they do third things and talking and all that kind of stuff don’t listen to them but stop being rude to them they going through a lot
Exactly and so judgemental - and all these stupid opinions about how to do a RU-vid channel’s my God - they obviously clicked and watched - and commented!!
Why is your baby in a room by herself? And I don't think mom likes to talk as much as dad. Maybe that's why he talks more. I think they compliment each other well. I'm a quiet person and prefer my more outspoken friends to speak up when I'm outside my comfort zone. She seems like Maybe she might be the same. So let's not get so upset if dad talks more. Maybe mom likes it that way.
Why is Eliana by herself? I couldn't hear Stephanie when she explained it to us. I don't know how you stand that heat - I have a niece and nephew (and their son) in Peoria AZ, they say it's awful - can't even get relief by the pool, still too hot. Glad to hear there's no major issues with the little ones. Hang in there and Bless you ALL 🤩🙏
They have a blog and also an update on go fund me, but they had to move to Phoenix Arizona - which meant they left their home and families behind to have the best doctor in the country look after the pregnancy. From what I’ve read they will only stay in Phoenix long enough for all five babies to be discharged from the NICU so they can then head home to their families/ support network. That means preparing a nursery is going to look a lot different than if their home and family were close by.
❤ Thanks for the update. Names etc. Would love to see pictures each video yho. Nice to know you have an ADELINE too. One of my 7 great-children is named Adeline Lou. She is 2 1/2. Blessings to you all. ❤ Barb from Anaheim, CA.
Congratulations on the birth of your babies . This will be a long and arduous journey. Watched your first video last night. Was wondering who actually gave birth, since the Dad did most of the talking. He keeps interrupting her without giving Stephanie ample time to comment. I understand this is new to both if you, but I want to hear more of the Mother’s perspective without the Dad interrupting her.
Some of us women still know how to be a lady and be decent. Some of us women know less is more and popping off is a disgusting habit. You are not some of us women and it shows. Who do you think you are to come in here and emotionally abuse someone else's baby boy?
Every video has the same comments about him interrupting her. Nothing has changed after numerous videos, so it seems this is the format he wants. She is well spoken and enjoyable to listen to-sad that she is interrupted and does have a mic 🎤.
Have you ever thought that she may be shy and not a talker? This platform is very close to public speaking! You know you’re in a room basically talking to a camera, but your mind knows that people are watching you. It’s very nerve racking. When she gets more comfortable, I’m sure the role will change. He’s NOT holding her mouth shut! If she’s uncomfortable talking and they’re trying to make money on social media, SOMEONE has to talk!
Great idea to make the channel. i really appreciate your perspectives. Keep making the improvements (using mics, notes off to the side, not interrupting each other...) Can you also speak on the topic of reducing how many embryos you chose to transfer, which would have reduced the need for $$ fundraising + improve the health of babies?
They didn't do IVF. It was a medicated cycle from what I understand. It is medicine that helps people that have infertility to actually produce eggs and ovulate. If too many eggs are produced the cycle is canceled to prevent this from happening. The Dr's monitor the cycle by ultrasounds and blood work. They had a cycle that was previously canceled. This cycle the Dr's didn't believe there was a concern for multiples and the Dr's thought they would be lucky to get pregnant at all. It is just one of those things. This wasn't planned.
First of all, they're already here so do you even have sense? They can't go back and consider reducing the amount. Next, OBVIOUSLY you've never had a fertility comic appointment and it shows. I have, and it broke my heart because the doctor said, "I'm going to put 6 eggs in you. Your age and risk factors are too high. You get 6 eggs or none, because I'm not repeating the process." We are 41 and 60, there was no way I was willing to risk 6 kids, but my plea was for just one, just one chance. The doctor quit us, a year later I got cancer and a radical hysterectomy. In hindsight, now I would have chosen all six and I still cry to this day. These people didn't ask you to come be their TV producer or life coach. I think it's blatantly offensive you feel safe enough to even talk to them like this. Do better.
Passive agressive much? You seemingly give a compliment then you insinuate criticism and negativity. You know what they say…? “If you don’t have something nice to say, don’t say anything at all”
@@lindao7887 boy and girl never will be identical , one embryo split and it doesn’t not change the sex. Identical is always the same sex and they are mirror images of each other.
@@katuu4 ok, I meant look alikes.....sorry, I know quints where two of them a boy/girl are identical "looking" to only each other, so they don't fit your literal description.
Everyone needs to try to understand how overwhelming their situation is and they are learning how RU-vid works. Please be kind with your comments and suggestions, it can be scary entering uncertain territory. If you just can’t help yourself just switch to a different channel don’t be mean.
Nervousness makes some people talk a lot. I am embarrassed to talk I get muscle spasms in my back when I do. Reason, I talk too much and I know it. Adult ADHD self diagnosed. But very real, I notice people who are that way and I see me. I have lots of mercy and grace for them. It’s a struggle that actually comes from being made to keep silent as a child. They have great hearts are very, very transparent. Respect is not hard, let’s all try it. If his wife is okay then I am too. It’s their stuff anyway ❤️❗️
RU-vid is a business… ppl love babies you will get all the money you want.. I always paid for my own children … but go ahead ask for more money ppl will pay
What the?! Clearly mumma is emotional, you can see that from the start when he asked her a question about the babies, and tired. I think they are doing great.
It's expensive to have 1 child let alone 5 babies at the same time. Of course their going to need help. If you can't help financially, please pray for the family. Amen.
Graham wants to live a life of Riley's life and not work. Why hasn't he reached out to his father and other family members who are doctors? GoFundMe accounts are for those who are in dire need of financial assistance. He stated that he wanted to be home to assist with the babies and be able to watch them grow up. It is his responsibility to act as a husband and father and work to support his family financially.
I KNOW STEFANIE FEELS LIKE SHE'S HAD FIVE BABIES, EVEN IF YOU DON'T! IT'S LIKE THE HUSBAND SPEAKS FOR HIS WIFE AND LOVES THE SPOT LIGHT ON HIMSELF! YOU MADE THE BABIES, BUT SHE CARRIED THEM, PLEASE ALLOW HER TO TALK!!!! SHE TALKS AND SPEAKS WELL, AND IF YOUR READING THE MESSAGES CLEAR HUSBAND PEOPLE LOVE TO HEAR WHAT YOUR WIFE HAS TO SAY!!! I MEAN SHE DID PLAY A REALLY IMPORTANT PART IN THIS PREGNANCY AND DELIVERY, SO PLEASE, PLEASE, ALLOW HER TO SPEAK!!! WE ALL WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE HEARING HER SPEAK AS WELL! YOU NEED TO TRIED TO ALLOW YOUR WIFE TO SPEAK , INSTEAD OF JUST YOU, REALLY OMG!!!!
Why are strangers expected to support this family,Why doesn't their church financially support them? If god is so amazing then why expect so much from strangers?
God is amazing!! And nobody is expected to do anything! It's for those who can and want to . This world would be such a beautiful place if everyone helped and was kind to each other. What about all the people who live off the system using tax payers money. That's whats rude . But we don't have a choice in that. Government forces us to. At least this is a choice. Be kind people. If you have nothing nice to say or don't agree then just move on. Say nothing at all .
@@csandst1it doesn’t matter who set it up,they could and should ask for it to be taken down. They made the choice to do fertility treatments and knew the risk of multiples. They can financially support them then. This is a get rich quick by using the quints.
Oh my God how mean some people are! They will not be rich by goFundMe, the hospitalbill for the babies will be huge. They are not using the babies to get money, come on!
IF THE HUSBAND DOESNT ALLOW HIS WIFE TO SPEAK AND ACT AS THOUGH THEIR BOTH ARE TWO INTELLIGENT ADULTS, THEIR UTUBE CHANNEL MIGHT NOT BE AS SUCESSFUL AS IT COULD BE, I'M JUST SAYING!!!!😢
It used to be a thing of kindness for a man to say we are pregnant it means he is INVOLVED- now with this new movement i wont mention it has been distorted - i think he means he is right there with her - and obviously he is
This is meant as constructive. I am not a hater. It is hard to watch your videos. You need to quit being so controlling and let your wife talk and quit interrupting her all the time. This turns people off and people are going to quit watching and you will lose supporters.
Maybe the RU-vidthing is his idea. She is tired and has a lot of pumping to do. Maybe she's not as comfortable in front of the camera as he, maybe she has said to him from the beginning "you can be in charge of the youtube-thing, okej?"
Yep,it’s a get rich quick by milking the fact they had quints. Of the can afford the fertility treatments and knew the risk of multiples.then they can financially support their own kids.
@csandst1 maybe so but they started this channel to pay for everything. If they keep the kids private I wouldn't have a problem but it looks like the figured out kids equal cash.
Im sorry but GOFUND ME REALLY? Ya'll chose to have these 5 babies and yes i get life is expensive with medical and the day yo day life of having 5 babies in the NICU but thats the responsibility YOU CHOSE TO EMBARK ON when you decided to have them. No one should have to watch your videos and feel obligated to donate. Ridiculous
They obviously was doing fertility and when that happens multiply babies are born. They did fertility to have a baby so your telling them they should have gotten rid of the babies to not have many. Really. They are obviously working really hard to tell people thank you and they not once ask or begged for help. So why would you feel obligated to do anything. Especially be nice and compassionate. Don't watch the videos. Of course they are going to have all five again I know I already said it but that's why they did fertility to be able to have a baby. Common sense goes along way.
Then don't watch or donate. It's that simple - you don't have to get snarky about their lifestyle choice because it doesn't effect yours in the slightest!
This is the world we live in....especially on RU-vid. Many other families have done this without Go Fund Mes before the days of e-begging became a thing. They're trying to make bank of these babies already. It's very sad.
Another husband dominated video. Give your wife a mic, she needs to contribute to the video. Mom, get some of the time to talk, people want to hear you too!
If it bothers you just move on ! Nobody's forcing you to give.At least it a choice to give . Unlike our taxes that go to people who live off the system that are capable of working. But just don't want to. Getting free food and medical from taxes of those that do work. Now that's rude! This is for those who have the ability and want to help these beautiful babies. Lets be kind and understanding. May God bless this family.
I don't think they should have stopped receiving donations. I can't imagine what the cost for five babies would be. Just in diapers, wipes and formula in the first year has to be outrageous. God bless this young family 🙏
If you want to retain your audience you both need to participate. Watch your body language; no random body scratching please😮. Please organize presentation; random wandering thoughts are hard to follow.
For someone who has always wanted to start a RU-vid channel, I feel like you haven’t watched enough RU-vid videos to know the basics about what people want to see. If I was your social media manager, I would delete the whole channel and start over. First come up with a better name to attract more viewers (I think “Freels Quintuplets” would attract the most people.) You can always change the name of the channel, if you have more kids later, but right now you just need to develop your viewer base.) When you launch the new channel, put the videos in a better chronological order. Film a whole new family intro video where Stephanie talks more, so people’s first impressions of Graham will be better. After that it won’t matter as much that he talked more in the next few videos. This video should include the five babies first and middle names, birthdate and times, birth weights, original due date, and how far along they were when they were born. Have the spelling of the names on the screen, if you can. Then repost the six reasons why you’re starting the channel. Then repost the infertility journey story videos. Then repost Stephanie’s pregnancy story. Then repost the birth story. Then start reposting the updates on the babies. Do not put “Go Fund Me” in the title of this video. It puts people off. Never state a time goal for a video at the beginning of the video, it only makes you look self involved when you go over your time. Longer videos are better for the algorithm anyway. Stop looking at your watch and just tell us everything you think we need to know about that subject. Stop restarting your videos, or if you do, at least be sure to cut out everything from before you restarted. Otherwise there was no point to restarting, and people will lose interest when you say the whole intro again.
They’re literally just starting out plus dealing with FIVE babies in NICU! They’re doing just fine, and the natural way they are is refreshing. Let them do them, and you do you.
HEY 🌟 I found you from Jamie at “Five Two Love” ❤️ I have followed them since early on in their pregnancy. I love their channel and enjoy all that Skyler and Jamie feel like sharing 🎉 I look forward to following you and your quints journey ❤ Blessings from Green 🌱🪴Ohio 🫶🏻🙌🏻
