I have been watching you guys since I started trying to get pregnant, and now I’m watching this video while breastfeeding my newborn ❤️ thank you for everything! Your videos have helped me tremendously the past year +

@nairuzg8515

I've been following your channel since my first pregnancy years ago, and you guys are always such an excellent source of information. Thanks for doing what you do.

@heather9130

Been watching your channel since we found out we were pregnant with our first last August. Finally had our baby 3 days ago, what an angel!! I am so grateful for all the helpful videos I’ve watched, I feel much more prepared than I thought possible.

@lynseyfahs8628

You guys are a lifesaver. My baby would never nap throughout the day at the ripe age of 4 months old. He stopped napping. He was starting to develop bags under his eyes, Then, i followed your advice and he fell asleep in 8 minutes. I feel hope again!!

@The_Joyful_Homemaker

Currently have a 1 week baby girl, these videos came at a perfect time! Thank you so much for the knowledge.

@loveeeyari2582

I’ve been following you guys for my entire pregnancy, my baby girl is three days old today and your videos have been soooo helpful during this wonderful but scary experience. Thanks!

Thank you so much for confirmation that sleep training/learning is okay 💕i was so scared to traumatize my baby but this makes sense

@prussedouce

Just had our first baby yesterday after trying for 10 years. Nothing has got us more prepared as we can be more than this channel. Every night we would lay down and watch a vid you guys did and it helped keep us sane as we waited for the little guy to get here. You guys are the best!

@LOGO_yo

I have a baby boy due in April and your videos have been so helpful in navigating my first pregnancy! Your videos along with advice from others have contributed tremendously to feeling confident my first go around!
