I understand, I’ve had four children and still struggle sometimes. Because I just feel like my everything is droopy, wobbly, and not youthful. I’ve started to feel better about it because I started to accept that I was gifted with three healthy babies and that was hard work. It’s okay to not feel the same after babies ❤
I have 3 adult children and their partners. I always wrapped all of their stocking gifts until I realized it was an all day process and I just didn’t have the energy anymore. They just appreciate the stocking stuffers. Rochelle I want to tell you that I don’t think you realize how beautiful you are both inside and out. Your absolutely gorgeous I always wonder how you look so pretty even when your having bad days. Hold your head up girl and you deserve some clothes that make you feel pretty.😊
We don’t wrap anything from Santa. That’s how my mom did it growing up lol. We unfortunately are all going to be sick for Christmas. I tell ya, I’m quarantining 2 weeks before Christmas next year lol. This colds kicking our butts
Girl! me everytime i watch any of your videos "Wow she looks SO good after 5 kids!" funny how we can be so hard on ourselves hey. i just had my 4th very recently and weirdly im feeling alot better after my 4th than my 3rd, most likely because i know im done and iv got the rest of my life to become more confident and happy with my body (much like you) but seriously you look incredible! xo
The struggle is real! I have such a hard time feeling confident in the way my body looks postpartum. I finally got rid of all my clothes that don’t fit me or I don’t feel good in. I still hope to lose some of the weight I gained (although I plan to get pregnant again in 2023) but there was no point keeping all the clothes just to make me feel worse when I look in my closet.
I've donated so many clothes for the same reason! My mum and partner say I should hold on to the clothes 'in case I go back to my pre pregnancy size' but that just stresses me out! I'd rather just have clothes that I feel good in now!
This makes me so sad to hear that you are struggling with your self-confidence because I think you are absolutely gorgeous! I'm currently 32 weeks pregnant with 4th, and I have been a little worried about how my body will look after I give birth. My body has always "snapped back" pretty quickly, but now I'm 31 and pregnant with baby #4, and I worry that I'll struggle with how I'll feel about my body afterward. Thank you for feeling confident enough to share this vulnerable and relatable feeling!
Thank you for talking about your confidence struggles postpartum! I ‘bounced back’ after my first baby, was wearing my pre pregnancy size within a couple of weeks.. this time I need to buy a whole size and a half up and I’m really struggling with that. I’m only 5 weeks PP, so I know my body could change again, but still. Nothing looks good on me, nothing feels good on me, I just lack complete confidence right now. It’s good to know I’m not alone ❤
I’ve given almost half my wardrobe away because I’m letting go of the fact that I won’t fit into my pre-last-baby clothing anymore. It’s actually freeing!
Thank you for sharing your insecurities ❤ I've just had my first baby 4 months ago and I'm feeling the same way 😥 Of course I wish you weren't feeling that way but it's nice to know I'm not alone x
You and Justin were born to be parents. You put all your time, love and energy into the kids, it's wonderful. I love the way you support each other when one of you needs some timeout. Great team work guys.
I am so very proud of how open you were on feeling like you have lost yourself. I think all of us mom can relate. We’re not super human we are just human. Love your videos ❤Merry Christmas 🎄
Rachelle I think there are alot of women who feel exactly like you do after having babies, it's so hard and I remember feeling just like that too after having mine, but you are beautiful and always remind yourself exactly what your body did and how amazing that is to create and carry a little human ❤️ isn't God wonderful. You all have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 🌲🎅💕
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 🎄🎄🎉🎉Rochelle i think your absolutely gorgeous give yourself a break you have had 5 kiddos in a relatively short time and your a great Mom it's not what's on the outside it's what's on the inside that matters and you are a very kindhearted person very smart and so beautiful and I think you dress so cute quit thinking that you're not anything of those things thanks for sharing your feelings love you guys
You had five children, and I think you'r looking pretty darn good. and its okay to feel off, just keep looking at those beautiful little babies you had. You and Justin are amazing parents. Enjoy your Christmas.
I am one of 7 and growing up Santa filled our stockings and left one or two big presents…..all unwrapped. All wrapped gifts were from our parents. I think it saved Santa a lot of time!!
Hi Rachelle, just want to say you look great and understand the anxiety after having a baby I was like that after having my 4 boys you will get there. Sending lots of love from the UK 🇬🇧 and A very Happy Christmas 🎄 🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁
Rachelle You are beautiful inside n out! You will find your confidence back again. I felt that way after my 2nd pregnancy after a loss. Just know you are not alone and motherhood has up n downs. Merry Christmas to you and your beautiful family with a blessed New Year. 💕🎄☃️❄
Love- being beautiful and feeling beautiful are two very different things. Everyone on here will tell you you are beautiful (you are amazing inside and out) but feeling it is a totally different story. Continue to follow what makes you feel good and that confidence will come back to you. We see you and support you💜
As a mom of 3 it was hard to feel confident in my new body but I started with small goals and I had to remember it wasn't what the scale said but in how clothes fit and how I felt in them. I love target and old navy and Amazon but sometimes you have to invest a good quality pair of jeans, black slacks, dress, basic short sleeves to layer-body suits and sometimes it maybe expensive but they last longer compared to the less expensive clothes especially if they don't last. Thank you for sharing your story!
I have four children and when they were children I always wrapped their stocking gifts. I always loved The stocking part of the morning. When our eldest began to question Santa we decided to tell the truth. However to Make it fun we bought her into the shopper team. And we decided that we would do that down the children as they grew older. By the time the youngest didn’t believe we had six shoppers going out to buy 2 items each for the other stockings. Each person had their own paper so no one knew who purchased what. Oh each gift probably cost £1 or £2. Then the gifts were out in each recipients bag so that after midnight service we would get in and whilst children went to bed I stuffed the stockings and placed them on each persons chair oh each stocking had an orange in the toe. I can honestly say that was my favourite part of the day. We also spread unwrapping gifts throughout the day. And sometimes into the next day. It meant the children appreciated the gift they had just opened.
I love that duvet! I’ve been wanting to order one but I don’t know where to find a good one. I want a big fluffy one, and of course they all look great in the pics but when you get them they aren’t always the same as the pic.
Don't be so hard on yourself! You look great! Now...I have to say, I am from So. Cal and I remember being cold and would shiver when it was 68 degrees! LOL!! Now I live in Canada! I was in Quebec from Dec. 2001-May 2021 and now I live in So. Alberta...We have had feel like temps as low as -53f!!! Now I know the true meaning of cold and I now overheat when it's in the 60's!! Granted I am now in my 50's and menopause makes it hard to deal with heat and I enjoy the colder temps!!
U don't want to look back when u are older at this thinking... I'm not happy with my body etc. Because that's when u will realize just how good you looked. Embrace it now! U look fantastic! Merry Christmas to all of you, Much love From Australia 🦘🌏
Rachelle please know that you are beautiful and your heart is amazing. Remember on the days that you don’t feel pretty that you are truly beautiful and we all have days that we don’t feel the way we would like to. God is good and doesn’t make mistakes and you are always beautiful in his eyes.
Let me just say… I ran out of milk and was making pan cakes and I used creamer🤣 BEST PANCAKES EVERRRRR!!!! So if you run into a flavor you don’t like just use it for pancakes!👍🙌
You do not know how lovely you really are. Your confidence is low , but Rachelle your baby is still little so you have lots of time to get your confidence back. Give your self time.xx Do somrthing nice for yourself.x
Best Guidance get rid of old clothes that don’t fit your new body I’ve found that helps our bodies change a lot after having kids. Keep pieces in your closet that fit you and make you feel confident.
Hi Rachelle I saw one of your videos about ivf embryo transfer you ate pineapples core so I have a question for you #1 How long (how many weeks)you eat the pineapples? #2 How many days and weeks you wear socks to keep your feet warm?
If Emma is good on her balance bike try for the first week without the training wheels. She might not need them as she has the balance down..just needs to get the peddling now. Our son was so fast at learning and did not need them.
Odd that you are struggling with how you look because a while back you tried on some clothes you got and I marveled at how great you look so soon after having Faye.
Merry Christmas Rachelle I have had three babies all girls and I am just bouncing back after 7 months my kids are a huge gap my oldest daughter is 18 years old my middle daughter was 15 years old and now my youngest baby girl is 7 months old
Hello Rachael and. Kids. Have a fun weekend with being home with kids ! I never no I won't say merry Christmas beause. You don't no how people are filling. ... well we are not haveing no 70 nothing weather .. how about. -----2 degrees.. degrees. Winds are 80 to 90 miles a he freezer cold can not be out longer then a few min have to have all skin covered up .. hate to say Christmas is cancel this year no travel no flying. No being on rds period. To dangerous so that quacks me up. That you are bare foot and short shirt and shorts. Don't you want to see the snow RACHAEL Christmas is not happening this year soooo sad !
I’m from South California too, don’t know if I could handle that type of weather unless I’d lived there for a while climatizing to it “BURR!” Sorry to hear about Christmas. Rochelle showing all the gifts can be intimidating especially for families who aren’t able to give their children as much for Christmas especially those who are faithful viewers. My husband was laid off so Christmas for our kids is going to be pretty bare under the tree. Here’s wishing you “Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! “

Happy Christmas to you all and all your beautiful family God Bless.
Is Emma already reading? If so, awesome if not it’s really early and her speech, expressive language skills have progressed really quickly lately.
I have 3 adult children and their partners. I always wrapped all of their stocking gifts until I realized it was an all day process and I just didn’t have the energy anymore. They just appreciate the stocking stuffers. Rochelle I want to tell you that I don’t think you realize how beautiful you are both inside and out.

@Rachelle and Justin , its ok Rachelle..Understand one thing ..You have to be healthy.. Weight shouldn't be a problem .

Rachelle you are too hard on yourself, you look gorgeous!
I love that duvet! I’ve been wanting to order one but I don’t know where to find a good one. I want a big fluffy one, and of course they all look great in the pics but when you get them they aren’t always the same as the pic.
@Rachelle and Justin I NEED to do this!! I’ll probably never get out of bed lol
I use two inserts to make it fluffy!
Don't be so hard on yourself! You look great! Now...I have to say, I am from So. Cal and I remember being cold and would shiver when it was 68 degrees! LOL!! Now I live in Canada!

Merry Christmas! I wish it was in the 70's here. When i go out to walk my dog at 8 it's going to be 16 with a feel like of 1 here in VA
Rachelle please know that you are beautiful and your heart is amazing. Remember on the days that you don’t feel pretty that you are truly beautiful and we all have days that we don’t feel the way we would like to. God is good and doesn’t make mistakes and you are always beautiful in his eyes.
You look great ! Merry Christmas

I have 6 .. I never struggled with my body until after my 6th baby.. idk what happened or changed either.
You look beautiful!!
Merry Christmas ⛄⛄, -8 here with wind chill factor -40, hardly ever gets this cold 🥶. The wind is so strong you can't open the door.
You are beautiful and perfect🥰
Rachelle what are you saying!!!!you even look super good in your shorts and t-shirt.
We had covid for Thanksgiving and last week we all had parainfluenza/croup 😭
Hi Rachelle I saw one of your videos about ivf embryo transfer you ate pineapples core so I have a question for you
#1 How long (how many weeks)you eat the pineapples?
#2 How many days and weeks you wear socks to keep your feet warm?
You're cold!!!! Girl you made me laugh!!! I'm in Cincinnati and it's 1° not counting the wind chill.
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
hazelnut and french vanilla are the only creamers i get too justin 🤣
black is so flattering on you!
I am dying over the amount of creamer you put in !!!!!! Haha I also only like hazelnut and French vanilla
I almost choked on my water when you said you wore the bodysuit in a Large. I'm triple your size and I fit a Large 😅
Same here! I was shocked no way is she a large she's so tiny!
If Emma is good on her balance bike try for the first week without the training wheels. She might not need them as she has the balance down..just needs to get the peddling now. Our son was so fast at learning and did not need them.
Odd that you are struggling with how you look because a while back you tried on some clothes you got and I marveled at how great you look so soon after having Faye.
First.
.Have a very Merry Christmas 🎅
If you think it's cold there...I live in Indiana...it is currently -8°with a wind chill of -28°
❤️💖
Merry Christmas Rachelle I have had three babies all girls and I am just bouncing back after 7 months my kids are a huge gap my oldest daughter is 18 years old my middle daughter was 15 years old and now my youngest baby girl is 7 months old
My niece had covid twice and last month she had rsv
Lol "it's freezing" meanwhile we are at -40c with windchill with a dangerous weather warning 😂
I’m a wimp 😂
❤
Body suits are very cute!
It’s 1 degree here in south west VA. I’d love 77 degree weather.
Don’t put the training wheels on the bike! Many kiddos can go straight to a regular bike if they’ve had a balance bike beforehand!
Merry Christmas
Lots of good gifts
Merry Christmas 2022
That’s what grandma do lol
I love the butter pecan
Italian Cream switched to Sweet Cream, International Delight.
Have a little coffee in your crème. Lol
Attach it with velcro strips.
Would you like some coffee with your creamer lol 😆 merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
The only way I can drink coffee 😂😂

Right now I’m Kentucky it’s -1 degrees I’m dieing lol
I’m curious that you 2:17 use creamer? And not milk. In Spain we use milk in our coffee, what’s exactly is the difference between milk and creamer?
Look up Coffee Mate on the internet.
"Creamer" is heavily processed rubbish, just like the rest of the American diet.
Mister 🤣
