Raw Pregnancy Q&A

What's up guys? What's up what's up? So we I feel like I wanted to make this video like in the very beginning But we had to get out all of our like reaction videos to the pregnancy and all that first I feel like we've been so built up on like content and like everything like we really haven't filmed a whole lot in the moment Right now because we are so far ahead with the reactions, ultrasounds like all this stuff So we need to answer questions Like I think the only reason some people know is because in some of those like reaction videos I like mentioned I think the due date like just randomly But I haven't even like said even on my Instagram or anything like what the official due date is So I don't even think everyone knows just like any kinds of questions So I actually asked in my broadcast channel on Instagram Sophia's heart condition as well. We'll touch on that Oh, yeah, so I asked it's free to join doesn't cost anything or anything if you go to my Instagram I have like this little BFF group chat and you can just join it and it's literally a group chat Yeah, we just chat in there So I asked everyone on there to ask us questions for a pregnancy Q&A and everyone asks So we're gonna be answering some questions from there and it's like a whole bunch of the same questions So I just took like one of each of those questions, whatever the most asked question Okay, what is the due date of this sweet baby girl? So the official due date is October 26th Which is insane because that means this baby could potentially be born on Mary Marin's birthday No That would be they I guess you would get hold on. What are the reasons people go over? Wait, okay. It's such a it's such a guesstimate like could you okay? It's really just such a guesstimate. I admit like baby's weight Maybe not be enough and stuff like that. Like, you know So if they're a week off then you're gonna have a baby week and if you you don't like go into labor by yourself Maybe like if you want to go natural then you could go over your due date. You see what I'm saying? I'm acting like I'm like an OBGYN right now Okay, what is the reason someone would go over their due date? Because they just they're what they haven't gone into labor That's what I just said brother. Okay, we're on the same team So October 26 is the due date of this week Maybe girl will mm go to the hospital or will you wait for her to meet her at the house? So obviously if like everything goes as planned or goes well You know to the point where she can come to the hospital, which yeah, she should be able to yeah We want to bring her to the hospital. So yeah, like it like after she's not just gonna be like chilling at the hospital Like while Soph is in labor and stuff. She'll be with my parent and then back at the house Yeah, your mom will be at the hospital. And then we'll have them bring her whenever we're ready and everything So would love for her to come and by the way, if you're new here MM is our other daughter that is 18 months old. And if you haven't been keeping up, we're having another girl Yeah, so crazy surprise surprise and also if you're new here, you better subscribe and if you're not new here and you're not subscribed I'll find you. Okay, really quick break while we're talking about all things baby and kids I want to tell you about a baby brand that has become my absolute Favorite with Mary Moran and I know is gonna be a huge favorite with this next baby The brand is called little spoon and basically their whole mission is to make parents lives easier and kids healthier They're actually the number one baby and kids food brand in the US. So I feel like that completely speaks for itself So what I'm holding is their baby blends. I actually have a ton right here. They're organic non-gmo They come in over 35 plus flavors. So they're really good for picky eaters There's a lot of options and so much more. I'll include more benefits of them on the screen But like really there's so many yummy flavors and they just come in these cute little containers Their products are completely free of junk They've literally eliminated over a hundred plus ingredients from their products that are commonly found in Grocery store brands and not to mention just the time and thought that it frees up from each meal time It will make your life so much easier Just trust me little spoon offers a subscription service that you can pause cancel or edit at any time I love when a brand does that everything is delivered straight to your door They have so many meals and snacks for babies all the way up to the big kids stage These are organic kale apple curls. Mary Moran loves things like this So anyways, I could just go on and on about the quality and convenience of little spoon So if you want to give them a try Thankfully, they gave us a code Taylor and Soph 30 that will get you 30% off of your first order So I will put a link on the screen in the description so you can find it easily And I hope you guys can give it a try and I hope you love it as much as we do I'm very confident that you will so thank you so much to little spoon for sponsoring this video So we have like a bunch of different versions of this question and this was like a really big ask question So if you know we live in like a very basically like a tiny home It was actually like a hunting cabin when we bought our property and we like renovated it over into a little house Flipped it over It looks just like a cute little tiny home and it it has a kitchen it has we don't have like a dishwasher Don't have a dishwasher our Washer dryer on our porch. We literally had to install our washer and dryer now our porches covering everything But it is outside like so when it's 20 degrees, you'll be doing clothes outside Oh and the pollen our washers like yellow and I told Soph she needs to get into like sourdough and stuff It she could do like the whole homesteading. We have no technology. No, I mean it all Yeah, we're living the simple life, which I love it So we have two bedrooms, but they're like very small like we have a king-sized bed You have a little bit of walking room around the bed Like our to fit marrons crew back to put it in perspective. Our house is like probably like 1050 square feet or something, but it is very it is very nice and it is perfect for us and one baby But so going into that we have a bunch of questions like our marron and the new baby gonna share a room Everyone's asking does adding one more baby to the house speed up your plans to build a bigger house Or is there room in your current house our marron baby? Yeah, so everyone's asking just all kinds of questions like that So if you don't know mirror ends actually still in our bedroom Up until recently our extra room that we had was like a big storage room just for all of our stuff We went from a five-bedroom 3,000 square foot house to a two-bedroom 1,000 square foot house So we had to put our stuff somewhere Then we just built like a big shop on our land and we were able to like basically put all of our storage in there So that cleared up that room, but that room now is basically like a big playroom for Marron So we don't know the exact plans. I am like I would keep marron in my room We're definitely gonna as long as I can Depending how she does like I want her to sleep, right? So if the baby comes and the baby's gonna be like an a bassinet beside the bed with us Depending how marron does like if she can't sleep in her crib Well with a baby in there, we would probably just put her in her crib in the room next to us That gives sofa panic attack So close I probably keep the doors open like I don't even know so we're really just gonna play it by ear We have options. We want to make a nursery. But again, we only have one room So the nurseries pointless but like I want each of my babies to have a cute nurse Yeah, so we're kind of walking through that but all that to say no It doesn't necessarily speed up our house building process because we already had like some plans for this somewhat of a set date of when we wanted to build and that was based off like financial goals and stuff like that just because we try to be good stewards of our money and it looks Like, you know Lord willing that will accomplish that goal and be able to build a house Before we would probably have baby number three We should be good in a bigger house because I don't think three kids would be yeah It might and got guys I refuse also to talk about like the house stuff because Sophia over here wants like a built more castle I don't I love so hints what hints why we've got to have some time Simple life vibes, but I also just love like England style. So it's just hard to it's hard All I hear is dollar signs. Do you have any names picked out any names you've loved for a while question mark? So we're actually gonna make our next YouTube video is gonna be a whole video about names and it's gonna be legit You guys will have to stay tuned. Okay, we've gotten so many comments questions Statements everything about yeah, it makes me think they're like thinking about that Obviously our because we we haven't brought it up and somewhat on purpose We haven't brought it up that much like Sophia's heart just because we we don't ever want our Like social media to seem like oh, they're doing it again. They're doing this for four views. They're doing this for money They're doing this like we we've always tried to be Like bringing it up. We've always tried to be as real as possible with you guys And I'd say that's that's pretty much the reason we haven't brought it up on any our social media I really touched on the topic that much as far as your heart condition just because we don't we don't want that Yeah me to be ever thought about us. I guess I that's what I've been telling Taylor I'm like, I don't even know how I want to go about it But it also feels weird like so much has been going on and it's like weird. It feels like I'm keeping something Yeah, like to an extent like yeah, I could go on and probably not share But at the same time it could have a lot of effect on I may have to go early again with this baby Like a lot of things so we probably we knew we'd just probably share with you guys But like we'll just throw into it like small video like this and just like yeah update those who are curious So if you're curious and we may you know as time goes on we may end up updating ever, you know Who knows but we just don't want to be over dramatic and there's a lot of things that we don't know right now So that's another reason is like, you know, we're not gonna come out and say oh my gosh, it's this is that it's this and be totally wrong and like Over-dramatizing it, you know because from the outside looking in that would seem like we're just like wanting views and money and just not being truthful So keep a story short. I'm really bad at keeping long story short, but with our first I Didn't start having I have Wolpert's and some white heart condition. You can look it up I won't go on into all that if you aren't familiar with our situation. Basically, she just has an extra electrical pathway in her heart Yeah, so I basically like as I grew up I became almost asymptomatic But I had always been told by doctors that like pregnancy could cause issues And I kind of always had that in the back of my head But um, I was so asymptomatic that I was like, I'm like, I don't even think I have this anymore Well, we got married got pregnant not until I was 20 weeks I start having issues and then it just got worse and worse and worse as she could Sophia couldn't drive her heart rate will get up in the 230s 220s 240s to the point where she literally Passes out or is on the verge of passing out and these episodes will last like 30 minutes 40 minutes 15 minutes It really just depends all that to say Sophia ended up having a ablation which is where they go and burn The extra pathway to obviously try to prevent it from happening. I mean they just like to get rid of it Yeah, they complete completely exterminate that extra pathway So we thought that when I did that they had told me that they removed 95% of it and left 5% because the 5% that they left was touching my AV node I think yeah, and that would be kind of dangerous to mess with and they were like I don't think that's just got this is gonna cause you any issues. So we thought I was good well I was like, I guess I truly won't know till I get pregnant again because you know I'm not really having any symptoms when I'm not pregnant. So we're pregnant and as of right now, I'm only 16 weeks pregnant about to be 17 Um, so I definitely didn't expect anything to come on so soon because the first time I noticed symptoms was a few weeks ago And so basically I started noticing the exact same symptoms. I started having worse episodes this time You notice it to be worse this time. It seems like because it's earlier right super early like if I'm 16 weeks now this happened 11 or 12 weeks. Yeah. Yeah so basically I just noticed like the typical episodes that I have and they were long like they were the ones same as when I was pregnant with memory and then I started having There's a whole story about this, but we were traveling and we were boarding a plane Yes, and she I'm not joking. She passed out. We're boarding the plane walking down the aisle Completely gone eyes rolled in the back of her head in the middle of an airplane I and like thank goodness like I wasn't by myself because like I could have hit my head She wasn't holding me or Marin. Thankfully. Yeah, so Taylor caught me, but I had a whole pass-out experience They had to check me out like all the things we've had to go recently to the ER for things It has been we've been to so many doctors. It's crazy FaceTimes And so saw like one of the best doctors in the country at the Mayo Clinic and that's where she had her surgery So it's not like we're like meeting with him in Three days for the first time to talk about all this So so it's not like we're like not like we're doing it. We're doing everything that can be done So the main thing I'm talking about is it gonna be I want to know if it's that 5% that's causing this or like is It possible for than a new pathway developed or something So kind of just a lot of unknowns and like what is causing this? What's the deal? I'm just kind of bummed that I'm so early in pregnancy because I hated having to be on medication Because I don't even like to tell it on when I'm pregnant I don't want to like that would be horrible if I told me like I couldn't drive which obviously I would want to do Whatever safest but like, you know It's just a bummer that all these symptoms are happening so soon It could last all the way through the end of my pregnancy and I also wanted to like not have to get induced this pregnancy Which I don't know if I will but based off of everything that's going on It's very likely that I'll have to get induced early just to be safer. Um, so we're gonna keep you guys updated again I'm trying to keep it like somewhat short so we don't talk about the whole video, but a lot has been going on So thank you to those who have been asking very much. Appreciate it So obviously prayers are much needed and much appreciated I know all of you prayer warriors last time we kind of talked about this and I Definitely did help Jesus. Jesus is the way so thank you guys as a baby's healthy like nothing's going on with baby right now So, you know everything everything looks great. So that's great. I'm like and it's gonna stay that way. Yeah, it's gonna stay that way Um, how do you think Mirren will react when baby girl gets here? We don't know y'all so I think Mirren loves like babies like if she sees a picture of a baby if she sees herself in a reflection anything she says Like she loves babies But I think it's just gonna be more so if I'm having to nurse Yes, or not be able to grab Mirren right when she wants. Mirren's the biggest mommy's girl Like yeah, you you really don't understand like mommy's girl don't even scratch. Yeah, it's not even she'll just scream If she sees Sophia walk away like Sophia's not even leaving the house She'll just like from here to that corner or if I turn my head and Mirren's right there It's like she's and I love it. It's like that's Sophia's dream. Yeah, so what there's no complaining at all But all that to say I think there will be like some sort of like jealousy Yeah, I mean, I think that's normal. I think she'll think it's cool at first But once she realizes the baby's not leaving home the baby's coming home The baby's gonna touch her toys and stuff like that, you know It's like, you know That's what will be interesting and at that time Mirren will definitely be able to talk fairly well So it's gonna be I'm so excited for the journey and to see it. I mean, it's gonna be We did this for you like I wanted to give her a sibling young so they will once they get older like yeah I mean she can play with the baby. Oh my gosh, she's gonna love it. But yeah, we're unsure what's gonna happen But you guys are gonna be there too. I mean, we're gonna we're obviously gonna be filming everything So you guys will see too. As someone whose parents decided to wait to baptize until we were ready ourselves Do you two as a couple who are on fire for the Lord plan to baptize your kids at a young age or let them make That decision when they're ready Well, I wouldn't say what me and stuff have like necessarily like super talked about this I guess and I think that goes to say like we're pretty much on the same page as far as I know Definitely let them make their own decision Just because personally I think that that is the point of baptism is that public announcement and public Declaration of yourself to say I'm following Christ. I believe in Christ. I believe he died on the cross and rose three days later So I would say yeah, definitely Definitely gonna raise them in the way of the Lord and allow them to make that decision And we'll definitely tell them about what it is like as they get older and tell them like yeah You're ready to think you want to let's go, babe I don't want to tell yeah, I guess they say like baby dedication But that's more like like I I don't think there's anything wrong with a baby dedication No, no like saying I'm gonna raise them. Well, yeah, that's that's the point of a baby dedication Yeah, it's more less for like the parents to say hey, we're raising we're raising this baby and we need the church You know to yeah somewhat keep us in line and have wise counsel around but yeah as far as like the actual baptism and everything Yeah, whenever they're ready when they're older and they want to thank you guys so much for watching We can't wait for you to be with us in life and be with us on this pregnancy journey and we'll definitely do like multiple more of these as like we get into third trimester and just as things come up, so Always just join my broadcast channel on Instagram Just go to my page and you'll see it like in my bio BFF group chat That's where it since those are my BFFs I asked them the questions all the time So if you want to be like in the next video or something when we do a Q&A go join and next video like we said Will be all about baby names. So stay tuned. Thank you guys so much for watching. We love you guys. We love Jesus We'll catch you in the next video. Taylor and Soap, out!
