As a fellow mama, I just wanted to say: You're amazing. You're beautiful. You're capable. You're also not crazy. You describing how you can go from crying to "I love my baby" is literally every mom EVER. Shit is wild. It's hard to be responsible for another human. Give yourself some grace. You are amazing 👏❤. Thank you for the endlessly amazing content.

Ad a mom of an 8 week-old, I need you to really understand how important it is for me to see someone like you also actually having a bad day. Please keep sharing these moments as well. I feel so much better knowing I'm not alone. You got this mama!

I appreciate your honesty! My daughter is 2 years old and so much of what you said and how you are feeling, I can still relate to. Hang in there, like others have said tomorrow is a new day, a fresh day to start over again. Motherhood is a roller coaster but it’s all worth it, you’re not alone! Best wishes from California ☺️

Thank you for sharing! Yes, this year has been so hard for everyone, especially people who have lost loved ones. I love to binge watch Love it or List it!!!

A week in the life of Sage! That is a really good idea! Can't wait to see ☺

your videos are so encouraging and therapeutic to watch🤗 my top favorite on youtube ! i literally cycle back through the old ones and watch them again :)

Love these real and honest vlogs! I’m having kind of a rough period in my life, and it’s just nice to see that it’s normal and that it’s gonna be okay❤️

Even as a mom of 4, including a newborn, I get such encouragement from you and learn so much. And Sage is so sweet!

Thank you for sharing your real day in a life with all the mom struggles and everything. It just makes me feel like I am not alone ♡. You are totally normal and doing a great job. You are amazing with sharing your heart with all of us.. very courageous, thanks! Also, Im from Quebec (Canada) and I absolutely understand how your feeling about the situation! Still in lockdown with a curfew 😓. Its very isolating as a stay at home mom 🤷‍♀️. Great video!!

I love watching your videos and you are doing wonderful! My son is almost 4 month old and he doesn’t smile much. Seeing Sage’s cute smile makes me so happy and can’t wait to see my little man to start to smile/giggle like your baby does :)

Thank you for being so honest in this video! Fellow first time mom in this pandemic in Ontario and I can completely relate to everything you're going through. My baby girl is 3 months and navigating this new parent and baby territory has been tough! But we got this and we will get through this. *hugs*

You're doing a wonderful job! Things will be opening up soon and hopefully you can get together with your friends. You are so blessed that you can work from home and be with Sage.

I can relate to the emotions! 😢 One day I'm fine and another I'll cry over the silliest of things. Your doing great! ❤️

thanks for keeping it real. just so happened to watch this when down with my own period so it was the perfect thing 💕

We all can relate!!! How tough it is at times.... but we make it

Love your videos, Sage gets more beautiful by the minute. I admire your willingness to be healthy and stay well for your own good and your baby’s. Keep up the great work !

Also!! Best vlog. Love how honest you are, you’re the best! Have a great weekend

You too, have a fabulous day!

Awe! I love your pep talk of not having it all together. The day before mother days I started my period, felt emotional, kids were fighting (age 10 and 12), I felt like a horrible mother for wanting space from everyone, felt like I didn’t even deserve a Mother’s Day. I knew it was irrational and just pushed on anyways. The day got better but we all get days like that and we should acknowledge it. Oh and my fridge broke that day too. Lol it was a mess but you get past it and laugh about it later.

i like your random vlogs and yes, it does get lonely

Girl you're amazing! Motherhood is definitely tough. I'm a first time mommy and boy no one says how hard it is. So I feel ya! But we got this ❤❤

Oh I feel you, I am a FTM and have a 5M old baby boy. We are going through the teething process as well over here and most night are not good right now and he barely naps at the moment. I’ve had many days like yours and today is one of them. So much to do but I’m so tired and my son is cranky so we’ve been lounging on the couch as well a lot today. We will get through this, Sage is gorgeous and love watching your videos

Sending love ❤️ hopefully this whole thing ends soon and we’re bakx to normal.

Sometimes just getting a shower is a win.! I stumbled on your channel a few months ago and have been enjoying your content and seeing Ms Sage.! Currently 33 weeks pregnant w my 2nd 😊

Love your videos Nikole. You are so real and genuine. I love Nature's Emporium. I used to live in Richmond Hill and used to go to the Major Mackenzie and Keele st. location. I've since moved to Toronto Steeles and Bayview and downsized to an apartment so, unfortunately, I don't get there any more. I wish I had a health food store near where I live. BTW, I am post menopausal and I'll tell yah, menopause is far worse than having a period. (I never thought I would say that) Lol. I still get hot flashes from time to time. Your videos would not be complete without seeing adorable Sage and your great hubby and of course loveable Cashew. I am so glad you had a lovely Mother's Day. The first Mother's Day with your baby is always a very special one. Take care and stay well.

I just started youtube and I don’t have a baby but you are doing so great to juggle everything and seem like the best mom too! ❤️

Your vlogs are my favorite! Sage is so cute. ❤️

& im obsessed with Sagey’s eyes! 🥰❤️

I got one of those wraps for our second pregnancy! I can’t wait to use it.

I love your honesty. I have a four month old and i can relate

Sage is such a sweet baby! I hope you all are doing well. Cheers!

Thank you for sharing ! It helped me mentally!! I have a 4 month old and a 7 yr old .

Sending you lots of mommy positivity! Im not a mommy but I am an aunt . And I try my hardest to give mommy so time off and care for the baby cause its hard!

My Daughter is 17 YEARS old and l still dont have my shit together as a Mum and thats ok👍

Hi Nikole.. Although I am not a mom and I cannot relate, I commend you for taking time to take care of you. You are important and it's ok to take a day off. Sage is adorable.. Hugs from NYC!

That’s Cashews’ way of saying that she wants to help with the making of the bed! 😂❤️ Absolutely adore your videos, Nikole. I’m always here for them.

I really appreciate the honesty. More mothers need to see that it’s not all perfect but that’s completely normal 👏🏽

You’re both doing great Nikole ! And God bless Sage 🥰 she’s so cute xxx hugs 🤗 from Malta 🇲🇹

It was a good thing that you plugged your IG as much as you did because as you’re talking about all the content you post there, I’m thinking well I haven’t seen that (thought it was an algorithm thing) and come to find out I wasn’t even following you...I just knew I was, and I don’t know what happened but...I am now 🤗. Just know everything you’re feeling is normal and I don’t blame you for blocking out the negative, I do too, especially the news and for the same reasons. Scheduled breaks are just as necessary as maintaining a work schedule. You got this! 😘

I love how every time you guys make the bed Cashew puts her arms up on it 😂 she is too sweet!

Great day-in-a-life vlog. Love them. I feel your blahs and I too live in Ontario (Toronto) and have been in lockdown since Dec. Covid house arrest is no joke for sure. Thanks for sharing with us. Hugs.

Loved the vlog momma. And same I don’t do the news for the exact same reasons. ❤️

It does suck Nikole! Don't ever apologize for keeping it real. Big hugs 🤗

Oh yes I feel like my brain is so up and down since having kids! I am on my 4th and they say it gets easier then more you have... but I think it’s just you just lose your mind and have lower expectations of things.

The riviera yogurt is the best! I buy the plain coconut and really love it

Your discussing how you felt at the end was so relatable. I’m in Florida where things are lax compared to other states but I feel like you. I’m just over the whole thing. I’m over people being terrified of each other. I’m over the mask mandates. It’s not enjoyable going or doing anything. I’m old enough to be your mom and you telling how you felt made me feel like I’m not alone with my feelings.

We all have those days! ❤️ I’d like to know where you got your duvet? It’s such a pretty color!

I feel you with the lockdown stay at home order. I’m in whitby Ontario. We only go out to get groceries or medical appts and we go for walks. I hope this is over soon.

Love this! Us mommas need real and raw to know we are not alone on the hard days. Which bouncer seat do you have for Sage? Does it bounce/rock by itself?

She knows her name!!! How sweet!

Sending you hugs !!! Being parents is a roller coaster of emotions for sure !! Loved this Vlog! It's real and legit , Sage is getting so big so fast ! Love your home gym equipment! Can you tell us where you got most of it from ?

I loved this video

Defo looking forward to the baby hacks video

Try using putting a little bit of vinegar in the fabric softener section of your washing machine for poop stains - it works well for us

im so envious of how much gym equipment you have!! I only have three sets of weights and Im looking to get more!!!

We love to do baby led weaning with my first child, it takes a bit more time to get them in solids, but by 1 year old he was eating normal food including curry and lentils. The only thing is that you need to keep an eye on them and make sure the seat in high chair properly, we have awesome pic of the messiness ❤️

Love your videos! Sage is a beautiful! Those gluten free wraps you mentioned in your haul, what brand are they? All the ones I have tried are like what you said, they fall apart. Hopefully I can find them in the States.

I really know how you feel Nikole about being under the stay at home order that has now been extended to June 2nd. Hang in there. Let's hope we'll be able to see family and friends soon.

Having an off day today! Appreciate this vlog! Love how real you are and thanks for posting this🤍 sagey is the cutest baby ever!🤩😍

I love how you show it like it is!!!! Thank you for this. All real

Riviera yogurt is so good! My son is allergic to dairy, among other things, and I was originally getting him Yoso yogurt but they smell awful to me (he enjoys them so that’s what matter lol) but he tried the Riviera brand and all their flavours are awesome and definitely thick! They even have an oat one that has a great texture too. Also, you’re not alone with the meltdowns to “I love my baby” haha I blame it on sleep deprivation/extra hormones lol I’d say it gets better but I’m 4 years in with 2 little ones and I’m still going through it 😜 the true joys of motherhood, but I wouldn’t trade a second of it ❤️

your baby is so sweet

Love that you guys have a lot going on but don’t ignore Cashew. I really really love that.

You made me cry. My 3 month old girl suddenly doesnt eat well for the last two days and it's killing me. I feel so awful and I need a good rest... She's been havin colics for two months and now teething started. It's so hard to breastfeed her, because she is screaming and crying and going totally crazy. I feel bipolar too. I can totally relate. So thank you for your honesty. I needed that.

You got this mama! Breastfeeding has so many ups and downs.. sometimes it’s great and other times it’s like wresting a baby and worrying if you have enough milk. And just when you get a routine they switch it on you. Hang in there ❤️

This feels like my life, baby is 2 months and a half.

My favorite yogurt is activia

Where is the duvet cover from?

Did you notice any sleep problems with leap 5? Been about 2 weeks of such broken sleep... is there an end 😴

I feel you. I’m having a day too. I had my son, Eros May 5th at 31 weeks 2 days. He’s in NICU, I’m struggling really badly and I just wish I could be with him at all times .. 😭😢

Sage Looks Like You That's So Cute!

Love you channel, baby Sage is so cute :-) Is your full-time job different than vlogging? I'm 5 months pregnant and working in retail and looking to get a stable work from home job after my daughter is born. Thanks!

10:11 look at matt with that dance

i feel so bad for you canadians, not that the US is much better. but praying for better days for you guys up north! for sage, try a chamomile tincture. they smell and taste god awful but its a life saver, i used it for my son when he was first erupting teeth and nothing else worked and that stuff did! dont worry mama, the teething part is pretty knarly for their first few then it subsides for the rest until molars lol then its a nightmare again 😫

My babygirl is only turning 4 months next week and I think I’ll start her on solids next week, I’m just too excited and she’s so interested in food 😫

As a mom of 3 soon 4 I can tell you if you are on your period and breastfeeding the milk changes in taste or something. My babies all were crying and not wanting to drink if I was on my period. I am not sure why it is, taste or smell or whatever, but I thought I would share this with you.

That’s so interesting to hear.. I’m going to pay more attention to that to see if there is a pattern

When my babies would nurse less often I would feel bummed out all day because my body had to adjust to not getting as much oxytocin. I did pump the milk but that pump didn't give me oxytocin the way cuddling with baby does. Maybe that's why you are feeling blah. Not that you have to have a reason. Sometimes we just feel blah.....

Did you guys get a new car or is that neighbors car?

I think I'm crazy too...like all the time lol

I had my baby almost 5 months ago, I am breastfeeding. My body has gotten smaller (6lb away from prepregnancy, I gained 37 lb during pregnancy), no workouts and eating whatever whenever. My point is you will loose weight but it takes a bit of time. Be kind to yourself, taking care of a baby is hard and challenging (thank God is temporarily), sometimes I feel like I am loosing my mind 😜

🥰

Those expectations get people everytime...

your dog doesnt listen well. You should watch Some Videos about dog training.

😘🤗

I’m totally “hating” on you right now. How do you look this good and you just had a baby?!! I have no kids and I can’t get my crap together 😤🍟🍕🍗🌭

If you work from home, no Maternity leave needed

I may be wrong but I thought as long as you are breast feeding you don’t get your period?

@surlespasdondine

Some women get it right away even when breastfeeding. That's also why you are not protected against getting pregnant again because you might start ovulating again at any time.

No...correct your statement, most mom's don't work with a baby??? You work from home, mom's leave home in the morning , before that there's a shift with the baby doing all the mom things, Leaving home! Going to an office, coming back , cooking dinner, play time, bath time, bed time.....you are privileged to be working from home.

Tja it is normal Baby and little Kiddo's are the best diktators in the World ...If they want something we are jumpning .. Because we love them ...

Disappointed that a “nutritionist” is promoting premature infant feeding before 6 months. Please do more research before feeding her before she’s ready. Pediatricians are not the best resource for this topic as they don’t usually keep up with it and are still telling moms outdated recommendations.
