Hey how are yall doing today

The more involved the dad is, the better balanced the kids are, period!

It takes a year for your body to completely heal, please do not rush this process. Your wellbeing is so important and you are doing so well, God bless you three!

I love the fact that daddy is so involved with the daily routine of caring for Henrique 💚 It gives mommy time to rest and recover.

I was just thinking the same thing ❤ 💙

I had 5 babies and now they are grown. There is nothing as precious as a baby. I look back on it with such softness and gratefulness. We now have 7 grandchildren.

A dad who isn’t involved with all the baby things is really missing out on some of the most precious moments. It is wonderful to see the smiles on your faces. God has really blessed this little boy with amazing parents. Love him, love each other, love every moment.

On my daughters first day of school I had to walk her to the corner of my street to catch the bus. Once we were there she turned to me and said Mommy..you don't have to walk me to the corner...I can do it by myself. My heart just completely crumbled. Once she got on the bus and they drove away, I cried all the way home. There will be many emotional moments in this part of your life. Treasure them. My daughter is 22 now and making a life for herself. She's a real beauty. Me and hubby...we did good. Blessings to you.

I cried too on the first day of playgroup, then school... then at secondary school,I had to drop him at the bus stop.... the first day (he was on his own) I waited with him.... then waved him off, and cried all the way home! Then there are all the proud moments we have as they achieve things. It's an emotional roller coaster. But we wouldn't have it any other way. Am so proud of him now. ❤

It doesn’t stop ladies…. I cried all the way home from the bus stop on the first day of kindergarten and I cried all the way home when I dropped my son off in a strange city 5hrs away for his first day of Law School 😢😢😢😢😢

Ana and Junio, I believe that you are natural parents. New but natural parents. Your love radiates for Henrique!

So glad you are working through the trauma in therapy, individually or as a couple, and are learning to reframe and self-soothe.

Parents are the ones who know their children best....🥰

Thank you for being so candid, and updating us in a different light. Ana, your joy is radiant! So happy for you and Junio! Baby Henrique is absolutely precious! May God bless you all!

God Bless You All!! ❤🌹

you seem to be the couple who never even argue with each other but are just harmonious, supportive and genuinely in love with each other! ❤

Babies know moms smell an voice, so they want mom or dad. That is so precious when that happens.❤

Very important for the father and the son to bond together, especially in the age age from now to five years old

Yes. And my husband bonded with him so much it was amazing and almost “over the top!” If he could have nursed him he would’ve 😅 Actually I nursed him for about 2 years but when he said “Mama: snack?” And Sarah, Abraham’s wife in the Bible weaned Isaac when he was 5 years old, if I remember the account correctly.😊

Hiring someone to clean my house because I was working, was not even a thought for me, ever. That would have been an absolute luxury. My Mom worked, my Dad worked ...and raised two kids. Our household was organized. Magic word ..ORGANIZED!

You two are amazing!! My children are older, 56 and 52. At that time fathers did very little with babies. Now, my son and son-in-law can do everything for their children. Personally I think that is great and helps you have better well-rounded children.

Lots to learn -and He already knows who he belongs to ♥️

Your journey on parenthood is starting off with much love and most importantly you both are working as a team! ❤ The success of Parenting is to both be there for your child as Henrique will always need a special part of each of you emotionally, physically and at times even mentally. You will always be learning as a parent even when you think 🤔 you’ve become a “pro” 😂… it is so refreshing to hear your comments as new parents to bring us back and remind us when our children were so “new”… they grow so, so fast. Junio and Ana are so sweet speaking of milestones… first words, walking, first day of school, riding a bike … yes, those are all times, as parents we will always remember. I so admire Junio’s commitment to being actively engaged with the everyday care with Henrique’s care. It definitely helps Ana out and also strengthens his bond with Henrique. Generational commitments of a father have definitely changed. As Ana stated, back in the day, father’s were just not expected to do any of those roles. It is fantastic that today those roles have changed. It will hopefully provide for healthier relationships, involving both trust and mutual respect between the parents and child. So thankful 🙏 that you are all doing well and are taking your birth experience and learning from it. This Journey will be a never ending learning experience that you will grow with each other in ways you never expected nor imagined. Buckle Up Guys… it’s gonna be an amazing ride… but from what I can see… the view is spectacular! … you both Got this!…you’re doing just fine!! ❤ Love, Jackie from New Hampshire 🥰

Being a parent is amazing but difficult, too! Ana, your recovery is wonderful and you look really great! And baby Henrique is a miracle! Big hugs and love to the three of you!❤💃❤👶❤🕺

Since your husband is home, he can get more involved with the new baby. If he worked in an office, he’d be gone for most of the day. It’s a beautiful thing to see the dad so involved IMO. I had my only child at 42.5 years old. My husband worked from home, and I went back to my part time job after 3.5 months. This was our schedule for years. We gave up some ‘extras’ but I was still with my child several hours a day during the week, and he had her the rest of the time until she went to preschool and then public school after that. Also, I was very sick for almost 2.5 months after I delivered so he had to take care of our newborn as well as me. Enjoy this time that you can spend with Henrique. Take photos, make a memory book. These are treasured times for the whole family! 🩵

Ana and Junio, this is a much more upbeat, positive video regarding your birth experience. And yes, Junio is a much more hands-on father than many men are. Consider yourselves blessed abundantly in many ways. Henrique is such a handsome little baby!.

Oh Wow! I was overjoyed watching this video! You two have come so far in such a short amount of time! Ana you are glowing, happy, lighthearted and relaxed, and Junio is the proud hands on dad, my heart is overjoyed for all three of you. It's really a relief and closure for us too, after the traumatic birth you shared with us. This is the family we all knew would come to be. Junio when people say you are hands on, to me it means that not only are you physically doing what needs to be done, but you instinctively just know, and do it. I think a lot of dads, maybe more so in the past, but question the next step, and rely on the mom a lot before jumping in. You are hands on and very confident, like you said, it's natural and instinctive for you. This gave Ana the time she needed the first week to start the recovery process. Bravo sweet Brazilian family, so happy you all have this precious time together, perfect that your work schedule is off season right now. Funny hearing both of you talk about the future, you already know that most parents miss this newborn stage and how fast it goes, enjoy every second! Your baby is a Taurus, he likes comfort above all things, especially food! Wishing you many continued blessings and thank you so much for this wonderful update! Sending love from Texas! 🥰

You are looking amazing Ana and junio is by your side always ready to support you ❤❤❤❤

Thank you so much, for the update!! Yes, you both are a team as parent's to Henrique and your relationship with each other. Junio, my first husband wasn't a hands on dad, rarely changed a diaper, skipped the rest of caring for a baby. My second husband and I decided to have children of our own, he was a hands on dad, never had to ask him to change a diaper or anything else for that matter. We both thought it was the responsibility of our children's parent's to take an active role in caring for them. I appreciated his help tremendously and the involvement we shared together for our son & daughter. It took 2 people to bring your child into the World, so why stop once they are here. You are an amazing couple. God Bless your family.

When I had my babies 50/47 years ago, my husband didn't do anything, no diaper changes, he didn't get up with them, nothing, he never wanted to feel them move inside me or see my stomach. We divorced when the boys were young and I remarried. My second husband was very involved and raised my sons. I am sorry he and I were unable to have children but he was a wonderful father and we were together 40 years before he passed. I love you both are so in love with each other and with your son. Blessings!

Leave them alone about that. Let them make the choices without others expectations.

Mom is still the primary for baby . It’s best for the baby to bond while nursing. Very important as I understand.

He calms down for you mommy because he's used to hearing your heart beat ❤🙏 A son's first love is his mother. My boys are grown but we're still very close. Y'all are doing great 😃 He's adorable 🥰 Much love to y'all 🙏❤️💞

I truly think God makes us forget the overwhelming aspects of childbirth and adjusting to having a new baby. You have turned your corner so enjoy your precious gift now. It won’t be easy but certainly worth it - every minute of it! If we didn’t forget most of the bad stuff, we mothers would never want another baby!

All dads need to be like you!!!! You both are amazing. Henrique is a very loved and lucky baby boy

I am thrilled to see/feel your joy and resilience! I am also delighted that you are utilizing EMDR therapy, you deserve the best possible support and it’s clear that you ARE integrating the difficult experiences and are moving forward naturally. You are wonderful people and wonderful parents. In so many ways you spread love with your dancing and sharing yourselves so honestly with all of us. Muitos abrazos!!

Good Daddy’s participate!!! Hands off Daddy’s lose out. My oldest son amazed me by taking care of their baby as soon as she was born. Momma nursed and Daddy burped and all the care while Mommy rested. I was so touched by his responsibility…. Keep up the team work. You make my heart happy.

Henrique is such a lucky little boy to have such loving parents...you both are doing great.❤

He is more like a Mother to the baby! So sweet!

There IS rationale to birthing trauma. It’s okay to honor it. It was REAL. As a mom you feel guilty that you couldn’t birth easily like the OTHER women.

I never had the chance to marry and have a family, but I babysat and was a sort of Nana to the children. I loved them as if they were mine. The families that trusted me with their children are still close loving friends. It’s been a joy to stay in touch and see the children grow up. I know the mothers wished they could have stayed home to care for them but sometimes life happens and they did the best they could. So enjoy all the time you can with him and when it’s time for you to find a helper to take care of him trust your instincts and also let God lead you to them and all will be fine. You both are doing a wonderful job with him! Thanks for sharing your experiences and life with us 🫶🏻.

I love seeing your smiling faces and excitement when you talk about your precious baby. 🤗🤗🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Love to watch you guys Such a happy little family . I live in South Carolina , I am of Scottish decent and a believer in Christ our Savior , The joy in your hearts is so refreshing to see.

You two are so LOVING AND KIND- JUST BE YOU ! You’re awesome , loving parents and little munchkin will thrive! God bless all three of you!

So happy for all of you that with a bit of time - a few less hormones running rampant - a good conversation with your Doctor and last, but not least, a chance to settle in with Henrique, has helped you reach a point where you can enjoy this time with less stress. Ultimately having your baby is worth all the hard parts of getting them into your arms. Congrats again!

Ana, you are a beautiful woman,but now you look so beautifully radiant since you had baby..motherhood agrees with you.God’s blessings to you guys.

Anna if a Mother remembered her childbirth she would never have another child. That pain is forgotten with the care of your newborn comes. ❤I’m very happy you shared your truths with those who also are facing the joys of Parenthood

Pay lots of attention to your first only at least for 2 to 3 years. In the meantime, your body will gain its strength. You will get a lot of experience that only your 1st born will give you, and you will be ready for the 2nd baby if you wish to. How much love, respect, and care we give our first one they will carry it to people around them.❤❤❤love from India 🇮🇳

Did the procedure to correct the tongue-tied issue improve his ability to nurse? I hope the results have been good for him. I so appreciate seeing a couple so respectful of one another...sweetness abounds. Henrique is abundantly blessed to have his daddy believe babycare was meant to be mutual and serving one another. Bravo to you.

Your handling trauma perfectly…. think about what is pure, true, and lovely…. Emphasis on the good and deal with the bad appropriately. don’t dwell on the trauma! Count your blessings! !

You two are so cute that child is going to grow up so loved and happy. What a beautiful the three of you are. Just keep being yourself and you have nothing to worry about

It’s wonderful that you both can be there during this early stage! What a blessing! Not everyone gets this. You get to figure things out together and get to know sweet Henrique! ❤

That will be what the screaming fits were, if he takes so long to burp after feeding then the wind will get trapped and that severe screaming will be pain. Always remember that babies never ever cry for no reason XXx

You both are really good parents, and your love for Henrique just glows ..So happy for your lovely family 😊❤❤ xxx

The Father should have hands on too if possible! That's LOVE!!!

It's so awesome to see you both so excited to give us updates on Henrique! Both of you jumping in to share all the moments!❤❤❤❤ Glad to hear it's going so well!!

Ana and Junio you are very loving, caring parents with little Henrique. You need to relax and enjoy parenthood and not stress yourselves out. Of course it is all new and all new mothers are always wanting to be perfect . Thats not going to happen. Henrique will keep you on your toes. You have a wonderful , supportive husband and I love him for that. Let him know that too. May God bless all of you as you grow together. Love to you all❤

Trust your instincts is the very best advice. Momma and Daddy know best. Periodic breathing is common in new babies and they grow out of it. But it's sure nerve racking!! Love watching your sweet family dance thru the trials and grow! ❤

Don't ever let someone convince you not to be hands on Junio!! Keep doing what you're doing!!

I'm 66 and I've never had children and I'm kind of living vicariously through you; with learning all this experience about what it's like to have a child .I love it thank you. I loved the stories about the napping .Thank you. That was funny Yes, I'm used to dad's not being very involved physically and certainly not as much as Junio is

First❤

Ana, you look so beautiful and glowing. Henrique is so blessed with two wonderful parents. ❤❤❤

Hello back to your Family! Not only have I found interest & joy in witnessing your journey w/ your newborn traveler, but have introduced my husband to the delights of That Brazilian Couple! You're so personable, emotionally intelligent & wise; a fabulously creative duo>trio - in how you embrace much in your world. Culturally, linguistically, & artistically, you expand our horizons, and you take us back to raising our son, now 22, (and just successfully graduated from university in Chicago) which is indeed a major transition; you will be amazed by what you share, experience and learn, because that's the point of love and life! Above all, your candor in sharing what you have recently experienced w/ your wonderful, and then again, wonderful little one is building your character, and the strength that will usher forth much that is the richness of life. I also loved your reposting of the improv choreography. Keep being right where you are and trust that you will seek the best for your family in toto! Not only will you persevere through challenging times, you three will soar. I believe you now know that more than ever!

Great video. Thank you for sharing even the difficult moments. I’ve been concerned about how Henrique has been doing due to his traumatic birth. I didn’t want to ask and cause you undue concern. The fact that the intense crying episodes are improving assures me there are no long term consequences. You are a lovely family. 🙏🏼🤍

I'm now nearly 34 weeks and mentally getting getting for a big tummy ache. Our first born was early at 36 weeks to the day but she was and is absolutely fine. Naturally i don't want to be away from her too long and i don't want Louie to be born before 36 weeks. I'll be fine with 37 weeks. Anna and Junio... huge well done on keep it together and being brave enough to go to therapy, you both look and sound brilliant!! I hope I make it to at least August. Much love.

Hijo precioso, padres marabillosis

You are a beautiful family, keep smiling. Love you all xx

My husband was very hands on with our daughters: he washed bottles, feed them, change them, played with them..etc. He took great care of me as well during my healing process. You both are so beautiful together you y your family 💜✨ Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Y'all are so cute. I'm going to tell y'all what a very wise man once said... We rush our children to walk and talk just to tell them to sit down and be quite.. That came from my daddy. One day my kids were running around screaming at the top of their lungs playing. I said, my word can't y'all take a time out and let's play the quiet game? He looks at me and said that. He reminded me of all the time I spent saying mama, Dada and teaching them to walk. So yes! I think he was very wise.

Just, go for it! You don't want to waste precious, fertile time. You will be surprised how much love and energy you will have for two. The second time will be a breeze. GO FOR IT!!!❤ Heather 🇨🇦

Glad to hear from you both again. Were thinking about you today and…..there you are! Just enjoy these days with your precious baby, heal, grow together! So glad things are well with you both!

I am so happy to hear that you are almost fully recovered from your ordeal with the birth Ana. God bless you. Junio, you are a wonderful man for stepping up and taking care of Henrique while Ana recovered. 😊 If you want to be a full-time hands-on daddy Junio, then go ahead and do it 😉 it's up to you. Henrique will be the better for it. Ana, now that you are recovered and more involved with Henrique, he will flourish even more. You both are wonderful, loving parents, and Henrique would love a little brother or sister in another year or two 😅❤

I'm so happy to hear that things are better for you all ❤❤

First day of School is so hard on a loving parent. The child is smiling and waving and you walk away knowing that you’re trusting their care to the Village. I cried and I was never the same nor was my child. I guess in hindsight it helps children to socialize and learn. It is a blessing if schools were safer.

Nothing, I repeat, nothing could have prepared you for the events of your delivery. In hind site, I now realize how we always get to the other side of negative issues in life. Wishing you all continued blessings.

Kad se samo sjetim tog osjećaja nemoći nakon poroda. Od jednom postaneš roditelj, tako si nemoćan, izgubljen, preispituješ sebe, vrtuljak emocija. 24 sata beba, beba i beba...tako je dobro imati nekoga uz sebe da ti pomogne..Dan po dan i sve dođe na svoje❤ i kreneš uživati.. i nikad više nije isto za cijeli život u srcu, mislima i duši uvijek će biti to dijete❤..sretno..lijepa obitelj..pozdrav iz Hrvatske!

it's so beautiful to see this new beautiful addition to your family

Sometimes births don't go like you think they will - and it takes time to come to terms with a painful experience. Beautiful babies help and time to process it mentally and emotionally. 💙💕

Such a sweet video about the enduring love parents have for their children.

Great parents and beautiful baby Henrique. He is so adorable. May God bless you with a long and healthy life.❤

A cada dia que passa as dificuldades, a insegurança vão sendo vencidas. Muito importante a participação ativa do pai juntamente com a mãe para cuidar do bebê. Casal fantástico!!!👏❤❤

Before he was born you wondered how you would cope. After he is born, you wonder how did you live without him all your life. 🙂

So wonderful you are all doing better. Ana, physical therapy might be your friend to get back to dance. There are some physical therapists that specialize in sports medicine. I’m sure in New York there ones that specialize in dance. There’s also pelvic health physical therapist that helps with post birth trauma. Your muscles were overstretched, maybe torn, and scar tissue develops. The therapy can help you deal with all those things and become strong and back to the physical level of dance that you’re hoping for. Continue to be in involved dad his old life. He will appreciate it. Blessings to you all.

You’re such a wonderful family. (I’m 61 now) I stopped working when my 1st born was 8 months - but until that time my husband worked shifts so he would take care of our son when I was at work and vise versa but he always helped - it really makes life so much better when you are both involved and on the same page when raising your family. Like u both said don’t question- you know what you’re doing!❤️

You two are so LOVING AND KIND- JUST BE YOU ! You’re awesome , loving parents and little munchkin will thrive! God bless all three of you! And don’t rush it- Henrique will be cooing soon , more smiling, laughing- you will see time does fly ! Enjoy the moment!

My goodness I Love listening to you two talk about your new life with your precious little boy. Congratulations God Bless.

Junio it is wonderful to see you enjoying your baby and helping with his care. However you are in a great situation where you can undertake sharing his care. A great majority of fathers have to work or choose to leave it all to mummy. I love you guys.keep up the fantastic care of your precious bundle of joy and always trust your instincts ❤❤❤❤

I was 18 in 1968 when I had my first baby and 23 when I had my second. This was before the internet was a thing so we couldn’t look up things on the computer. We relied on instinct. I grew up as the 3rd oldest of 20+ cousins. There were always babies around to feed, play with, change diapers, so I was pretty at ease. I think sometimes today’s mothers worry too much about every little thing. My 2 beautiful daughters are wonderful adults and I’m so proud of them. Don’t worry so much, just enjoy your little one! You will know if you need to see a doctor. I’m sure you are great parents because you love your little boy so much!

You 2 are an amazing team as parents, as dancers, as marriage partners. Keep up the great work!🤗

You both are just the cutest. I'm glad you are doing so much better now Ana! Your family is beautiful! Love to you all!

You are both such a lovely couple and are obviously absolutely adoring, careful and considerate parents. God bless you!

I have no advice, you two really have this all in order. Very nice couple. Lucky Baby!!!

Your first, especially, is a big change to your entire lives. You just do your very best, and it will be enough. No matter how hard you try, you won’t be perfect, but it will be enough. Love and laugh ♥️

Junio- it’s wonderful that you are both hands on❣️❣️ So admirable and correct. Yes, definitely in our parents day, parenting was left to the moms (generalising). But what a blessing to have a father and mother intentionally sharing everything. There may be many situations today where the father is shift worker or doesn’t have paternity leave or perhaps a desire to be fully involved. You’re doing a great job. Hugs for Henrique 💗🕊

Please still give your self more time Ana. You have been through alot. So has your husband. Just take one day at a time. The three of you are in my prayers. Keep dancing. The two of you are beautiful together.

You both take turns caring for him. Dads need to bond with babies just like momma. From what iam seeing your both amazing.

Junio you lead by example..You are an amazing hands on Dad..Don't stop and you both make an unstoppable team.. Kudos to you guys cause parenting comes with its trials and tribulations...

Ana, I'm so happy to hear you are recovering well. Junio, you are the BEST!! You 2 make an AWESOME TEAM for Baby Henrique!! LOVE Y'ALL! 🙏❤️💙💙❤️🙏💃🕺🕺

Love you

Great interview but must admit...my favorite part was just watching Henrique 🤗

Ana and Junio ,I love you guys. Henrique is a lucky baby to have you both as parents. Sending blessings from Michigan ❤❤👣

I think Ana can calm him cause he grew inside her & heard her voice the most.

Pues sí Junio , eres un padre y esposo maravilloso, no todos son así, hasta creo que la mayoría no son así. Desgraciadamente no tuve esa linda experiencia que ustedes están viviendo. Que Dios bendiga al pequeño Henrique y a ustedes como pareja.

When my babies used to sleep longer into the night, I would place a maxi pad in the diaper. This helps keeps the babies dryer for longer. We used to go through soooo many diapers. At least 11 a day. And when the babies pooped, that meant a bum bath in the sink. They were such great poopers. But sometimes you open up a diaper and you don’t know where to start. I can’t wait to see Henrique smile. I strongly believe a woman’s body takes a full year to get back to what it was before. Take your time. Lots of love oxoxo

You both are doing a fantastic job. Henrique is alive and growing well 👏🏽👏🏽
