Filo, you are only a few months away from giving birth. Your hormones are raging, you are dealing with a toddler and an infant with tummy problems. Give yourself a break, and wait this out. Bottom line is, you must do what is best for you and your family. If that’s a rebrand, great! If it’s goodbye, then you will find a new chapter (but will be missed!). Either way, take the time you need to make your decision, and please try to not put so much pressure on yourself. Thinking of you, and knowing you will do what’s best. ❤
I hope you don't quit! I would totally watch you going to thrift stores or just sharing your daily life. I think a lot of your followers would feel the same 💖
I’ve checked to see if you posted a few times but figured you were just enjoying your new little one. I personally love to see thrifted finds flipped or just see how people decorate their homes or style their outfits with thrifted finds. I enjoy your content because you are genuine and relatable. I’m sure many others do too and will watch you no matter what. 🤍 But if you feel you need to step away, that’s okay too. You don’t owe us anything 🤗
I watched your Amazon hauls and have also started shifting to wanting to do more second hand so my algorithm changed to thrift and marketplace shopping and hauls. Do what is authentic to you and your audience will follow along and you’ll attract new subscribers. When you’re ready. If you ever are.
You’re a darling girl and don’t need to worry about your followers. You have enough on your plate. I only had one child, but two is a handful. Take care of yourself and your family. That’s what matters most. God bless you.
Hearing you on this video reminded me a bit of how I felt after both my kids’ birth.. everything in life felt like a massive change and I was barely able to keep up with everything.. Things don’t have to be set in stone. It’s ok to not know what to do or which direction to go ( regarding your YT). Give yourself some time and lots of grace. You’re doing the best you can. P.s if you do feel extreme sadness or anxiety don’t hesitate reaching out to a professional to help you sort through this. ❤ Big hugs
My second baby had the same kind of issue and we went through a TON of formulas. The only one that she could have was Similac Alimentum which has no milk protein in it. She is over a year old now and still can’t drink milk. I know every baby is different but just thought I’d tell ya. You are his momma so you know best 😊
Girl, you don’t need to apologize for anything!! I think it’ll be better when Luca is a little older and his diet is figured out. That takes a huge toll on a new mommy when your baby is having some sort of problem. You are good and human!!! We all go through this!!! It’ll get better!!!
I am so glad to hear that everything is okay! I was truly worried. I have watched you since 2017 and will truly miss your content! If you decide to rebrand, I am here for that too!
U dont relate to your old content?? AFFORDABLE?? thats literally why we are here because u post the best most affordable items from our FAVORITE BRANDS.... How can u NOT relate to AFFORDABLE LIVING BOO??? we are gonna watch whatever u post sweetie❤
First I’m so glad the baby and everyone is well. Take the time you need don’t let pressure society or anyone dictate how and what you need. We will miss you xoxxox
I’m so glad you and your family are well. Being a mama is hard. Being a wife is hard. I can’t imagine how hard it would be putting my life out for the whole world to see and criticize. I really enjoy your content and have missed your wonderful personality. I wouldn’t mind seeing thrifting content. I watch that too. Who knows where this is going to take you. I wish you the best even if you decide to give it up all together. I truly hope you don’t because I never saw you as a failure. You do a wonderful job and I like that you look for a bargain!! Prayers for you and your little family.
I have a milk protein allergy as well and it is tough. I can only imagine how tough it is for a little beb who couldn’t explain how he is feeling! I hope little boy is feeling better soon! So nice to see you again! Sending positive vibes your way!
I relate completely to how much having two children changes everything. Please give yourself grace and we’ll be here if and when you return! ❤❤❤ Glad to hear everything is alright with the family.
filo you are such a sweetheart! I’d watch you, if you decide to experiment and try different content. I’d love thrifting videos. but you do whatever makes you happy and most at peace. You’re not a failure, you’re more brave than most people ever would be just by putting yourself out there in the first place ! ❤
Girl you got me crying on my lunch watching this video 😢 we will support whatever you decide to do. People are here to watch you for YOU, not necessarily your content. I am a fan of you as a person. I watched all your videos no matter what you were posting. Tons of influencers switch their content up as their life evolves! Please don’t ever doubt yourself as an influencer and more importantly as a mother, you’re doing an amazing job ❤
Long time subscriber here! I think I found you through Tumblr and I remember watching your college content! I think it’s totally normal for you to evolve and your content change. Especially now that you are a mother. It’s only natural! I absolutely love thrifting, that has been a part of my life for almost 20 years, so if you choose to come back and show thrifting content, I will totally love to watch and support! Take care 💕
There is a time for everything. Take time for you to heal. And, when you heal you will have more light on where to go, and what to do about everything. For now, look after you! You don't need to make a RU-vid decision right now. You have a whole life to live :) Good-bye does not need to be forever either. Life is a like a film reel, it keeps going on and on. It is not a still photo, it evolves and changes. Hugs!!
Filo I have so enjoyed all your content. Especially the Amazon finds. You always find the coolest stuff and I have bought so many things because you brought them to my attention! I hope you don’t stop but I do understand that life ebbs and flows and takes us in different directions. You have to follow what makes you happy and brings you peace. But if you find any cool Amazon stuff please send them my way! I’m about to have my first granddaughter! She will be the first girl in our family for 75 years!!! We are a top boy heavy family and she’s going to be a little princess for sure!
❤Good luck to you. Have you considered pivoting and sharing your experience finding out about your baby’s illness? It could be helpful to others and cathartic for you. My niece went through this same thing and it was a Relief once the problem was identified and she was able to find a community.
Crying with you 🥹 sad to see you go but understandable. Like you said, everyone has seasons in their life but I sure hope you change your mind and come back! Your videos are my fave 🥰 until then, keep being the best momma to your two cuties!
I love watching thrift hauls on YT- so for what it's worth I'd still be watching! I go thrifting pretty much every Sunday with the color tag sales at Goodwill. 😆 glad to see you and the familia are okay ❤ and support any choice you decide 😊 but would def miss your vids!
Same happened to my second boy! Couldn’t nurse anymore so we tried formula. First one made him super congested for 2 months, I asked to switch formula, started soy…2 days later no longer congested but now pooping blood. Changed to nutramigen and much better! My other son the same so we tried alimentum and much better! Take this time off to be with your kids, things will get better! Don’t stress about it all…trust me, 5 kids later, all these bumps in the road are normal, and there will be many more!!! You got this!!!
I’m so happy that you are okay. There is nothing wrong with being okay….give yourself the grace that I’m sure you give everyone else. You have to take care of yourself which is super hard when you have two little ones. So thankful that you have family and a great friend to give you a hand…take their help without guilt. I have always been impressed with your channel and you. ❤
First of all, I love you as a person and no matter what you post about if you decide to continue, I would love to still follow along with you; thrifting/ daily life, anything! I struggle soooo much my PPD, and always felt like a failure, and I had a really hard time with my identity! Please don’t make any decisions being in the thick of it all, and just give yourself love and grace because you’re doing a great job Mama! You are a real person with real feelings and you deserve to take as much time as you need! I pray you will find your new path and it is fulfilling ♥️
Omg I LOVE you and your videos! You’re one of my favorite RU-vidrs and I will stop everything to watch!!! I think you should take some time and regroup! You can vlog your thrifts your kids your home 🏠 those and my favorite things!! Just remember that this too shall pass and Luca will get better ❤️🩹 and your mental health will improve!! Sending you lots of love! 💕 ❤
I'm so sorry your son is (and you are) going through this. I'm 5.5 months pp with a cmpa baby and listening to you was like looking in a mirror with us. It's really hard. It is SO HARD. But, it does get better. Feeling for you, girl. Take care of yourself. We will be here if you decide to come back, but if not, that's ok too. Do what YOU need.
Filo!! It’s so good to see your face! I’m glad you and your family are all in good health and doing the best you can! Hang in there girl, and follow your heart. Those who love you will always be here and you may find some new friends along the way ❤
Life is overwhelming sweet girl. I have always enjoyed your channel and hope to continue seeing more content from you. Keep on going and remember that you are supported by a lot of people. ❤
Filo, I love your channel and have been watching you for a long time. I had something similar happen to me lately so I can relate. You will come out stronger and better! If you enjoy it, keep filming. I will watch whatever you post ❤
I would love love love thrift shop videos. But you do what is best for you! You can not be a failure. You are a wonderful person with or without social media!!
Glad ur all OK hope Luca is better now ❤ don't worry we are here if you do come back with anything you do its ok to take breaks, life happens and no need to apologise. Sorry that happened to you with tiktok so many wrong things with that app 🙈 ❤
Anything affordable finds could be your next direction if you choose but Take care of your self and your family first…you’ll figure it out there’s no rush. My sister went thru a terrible year last year she’s an influencer and she just completely just stopped posting for a year any even now she only post what she can handle. Don’t be so hard on yourself it’s ok to take long breaks if that’s what you mentally need.
So glad to hear from you. I kept looking back thinking I missed your post. We will take whatever you give us and never complain. If you want to post we are here for you… if you don’t want to post then we will wait until you may do it again. I had postpartum issues and a sick baby. It’s hard! So hard!!! Saying that, so many people understand your emotions and confusion of what the future holds. You do you and we will be here! ❤❤❤❤ never feel the pressure. Feel the love
Don't quit, you can help other people who are also going through hard times in their life, or deal with anxiety like myself. You have a lot on your plate right now though, put yourself and your mental health first. Post only what and when you feel like it, maybe only once a week or every other week for now. Do real life content because after all we are all doing real life and no one is doing it perfectly. Hope you and your baby both find peace and happiness very soon. I think it will happen ❤
No one can do the same thing forever!! I love that you don't relate to your old content. I've never seen a consumerist/haul channel shift to secondhand before, I think it's amazing (even if you don't post about it)
It was great to hear from you. You do what you need to do for yourself but it will be hard to get through an Amazon Prime Day without your recommendations. I love your content. Whatever you do, take good care and know you have devoted fans.
Filo glad you and your family are okay! Don’t worry about social media we will wait for you. If you rebranded I would still follow and watch. But take a break! Take care of yourself and your family 💕💕💕
Oh girl❤ I hate that you feel that way you need to do what is best for you. Having said that fellow, I would watch you if it was just what’s going on in your life what are you doing in your house cleaning videos organizing videos, goodwill videos it doesn’t matter. We will watch it’s just like keeping up with what your friend is doing. It’s just real life and that’s enough.
I will always watch you, I will always be a subscriber, I’m always here Loved seeing you post. Please do what’s in your heart, and what’s good for your mental health. If being a mom is what’s in your cards then that’s awesome. I know I will be here if and when you come back. Beautiful babies Filo. Remember they are not young forever, hug and kiss those babies. Anyway much love to you and your family from Pennsylvania- See you next time. 🩶🩶🩶🩶
I’m glad you and your family are doing well, which is the most important thing in life ❤ Do what feels right for you and gives you peace. The time will come when you have more clarity on what to do. We (behind a screen) will be here to support you on whatever makes you happy! But for now, lots of love and good wishes to you and your family 🥰
Oh you precious girl!!! You MUST give yourself a break!! Just take a step back and focus on you and your family right now. AND WHEN YOU’RE READY you will know what you want to do! Don’t stress and don’t hurry. We will all be here ready to watch, learn and laugh (I love it when you mispronounce words and get tongue tied) if you decide to return. I’m so thankful you posted this and to know what’s going on. I sure have missed you!! Prayers and hugs for you.
Just glad everyone’s and everything is okay! If you need to step back of course do it. You and your families well being is far more important than RU-vid.🫶🏼
sounds like me what i went through with my 4th baby, my only son. He stayed constipated! i always had to use the same thing to get him to poop. I felt so freakin bad. I was only breast feeding. i had to switch to almond milk and that didn't even work right away. i never put him on any medication. i just changed my diet. i stopped breast feeding at 1 year. so i feel your pain girlfriend 💙 and about you takin time off...don't be so hard on yourself!! people do it all the time and the ones that are actually here for you will still be here for you!! period!!!!😉💙💙
we will all miss you but take as much time as you need and if you want to come back feel free to free to do whatever it is that you want ❤ I will say a prayer that you find peace
I usually don’t comment, but I watch all of your videos. We’re here for you, and your personality! No matter what type of videos you post we would watch. But we are glad to know your family is doing okay, you aren’t a failure! If you choose to move on from RU-vid that’s not a failure! If you feel like posting, post! If you don’t, then don’t! We’re here for you either way. ❤
Filo, You being you is worth watching any & everything you do!!!! We love you. You don't need to be ashamed of the accounts that were taken down. Shit happens and you move on. You have every right to have these feelings of sadness, being pissed off, angry It's understandable having those feelings of having the rug pulled out from underneath you. You are stronger than you think! Stop with all the self negativity ❤💛 YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AMAZING TALENTED and all of the wonderful adjectives to describe you. I hope all of this makes sence?? I love watching you, you have a calming personality, even if you feel like you are 😵💫. Please take this words I have written to you as positivitly as they are meant to be.💕
Hey hon. It’s not easy being a mom. I went through a pretty bad postpartum depression. Your mind takes you to dark places. You should talk to a professional about how you are feeling. It can help. You should not feel alone. and to clarify…you have so much to offer. I spent so much money because of you…lol! Your Christmas gift lists. Your prime day lists. Your Father’s Day gifts…Mother’s Day gifts…all of it was phenomenal. I also love your energy. No one can ever take that away from you. You have a beautiful gift. If you can only post sometimes … then do that. Of course, you should only do what makes you happy. No matter what you do… I wish you and your family the very best. I will forever be grateful for all you have brought into my life. Hugs!!
Take the time you need for you and your family. If your content changes, so be it. We all grow and change. The ones that are meant to stick around will stick around and continue to support you. Who knows, it may also help gain alot of new subscribers that were meant to find you. From one Houstonian to another. ❤
Filo, amiga….. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ so much love and positivity for you!!! Girl, we would watch you read the phone book or watch paint dry lol. We love you dearly, what if you just vlog your everyday life? You could review books or OOTD. Praying for you and the fam. Your amiga who remembers sitting on the floor of your apartment giving reviews pre kids/pre marriage. Take care of yourself XOXOXO - Sandra
It was great seeing you, I was worried, you are a strong person and your life has changed with two children and you are adjusting. Don’t ever say you are a failure because they took your TikTok down. We all make mistakes in life but we just have to pick ourselves up and keep going. I would love to see you make a comeback, but if you don’t you will be truly missed! Take care of yourself and family!❤🥰
You are a wonderful person,mother and wife.My granddaughter had the same issue as Luca,it’s very frustrating and I feel for you. If you feel you need to stop or take a break from making videos, please do. Please remember, you are NOT a failure or stupid! We will be here if you decide to continue.
My daughter is 6 months now and she has a protein allergy. I did an allergy test through hair sample and I was eating things that I was allergy too and she was allergy too. I had to change my entire diet to avoid things I am allergy and she is. No more blood poop or pain. It is hard and stressful trust me I know. Hang in there mama you will figure it out. Try plant base formula or goat milk formula.
Take time. You are trying your best. You don't need to explain yourself whilst you are still trying to understand yourself during post- partum. Everything will become clear again. Sending love and healing x
First off thank God everyone is ok!! I was googling my little heart out to make sure you are ok! Next you cannot leave. You make so many people smile with your videos ( me being one of them!) even if it is just listening to you talk we love it. You are one of the most real people on RU-vid, never afraid to be yourself. Screw the dupes … we don’t care about that. As a plus size girl I would never watch for the clothes anyway lol I watched just to see you. I would love to see you thrift and do you amazing and temu hauls and all the things! Please think twice about leaving… we love you ❤❤
Filo, this is gonna be a long one and even if you don’t respond, I hope you get a chance to read this. Before I had my daughter (first time mom) in 2023, I found you during your very early YT days and I loved and do love your videos. I was commenting, liking, & subscribed. ❤ I waited for your uploads; SHEIN hauls, Amazon review, must haves, etc. I love watching your videos. I never imagined becoming a mom would change anything I thought it would take me 3months to get back to being me.. I was wrong. So so wrong. My daughter had something VERY similar to what your son has. The lack of sleep and the depression I spiraled into was something I never thought would happen to me. Hearing you talk about it in this video honestly is very triggering to me. I’m so sorry you guys have been going through that. After I had my daughter I must of been away from YT for at least 5-6months it was lots of Filo hauls and reviews I missed in that time. I spent a few days trying to binge watch and like and comment lol I did it but ever since becoming a mom my social media time is so limited. I feel bad, I know how important the likes and comments can be for small YT channels and not to mention I just love your content. I even started following you on tik tok and the thrifting haul I saw was awesome! Especially since we live in the same area, I was like well I need to go to the thrift store I could find something as cute as what she did. But even scrolling tik tok is very limited now as a momma. I cannot imagine going through what I went through in the first year while having a toddler. Prays to you girly cause you have to be a tough cookie! My support system is strong I had mom and mom in law helping me sometimes 24/7 and it still was HARD. I would be super sad to see you go, but so happy if it helps your mental health. 🫶🏻 sending you lots of love and support! ❤
You do not need to apologize! You have been thru a lot. Please give yourself time and Enjoy your 2 children. They grow up soo fast. We all miss your content, but you will know after sometime if that is something that you want to continue. If you do, know that we are here for you. 😊
As a person who STRUGGLED with my mental health for the last four months, the biggest thing I learned is that today is often enough and there is no shame celebrating that you just made it through it. It’s okay to walk away from or not do things that use to be easy or okay for us to do. More importantly talking kindly to yourself or doing things bc they spark joy no matter how small isn’t selfish or stupid it’s needed. Keep going. You’re a business woman who took a hobby and a passion and found a way to make money. Most of us are here for the connection we get from seeing just you and what you’re up to. Id watch your thrifting bc it would help me be more savvy with money and clothes. Id watch you clean and organize just to get ideas. You got this and thank you for sharing your hard. It helps to know I’m not alone in hard.
Filo take care of you. Know we love you but also understand you are human. We will stand beside you either way. Know that I watch you for you not necessarily what you show us
So glad all is ok. Give yourself some grace. Life shifts with children. How bout just "Day in the life" videos. Just be you and show your day. What your coffee is, whats for meals, just what's happening. Lots of views on those type of videos. Grocery hauls, Amazon orders, recipes and such. Good luck and God Bless.
