Wow the honesty in this video. The part about feeling resented. Like you owed someone something. Thank you for living this in. Wished these were the convos having in society about this idealized version of what motherhood is and implies.

crying is normal🫶🏽 you are doing great in all aspects especially as a mom!

As a 26 year old woman who is not a mom yet but looking to be one in the near future, your content means a lot to me. The way you expressed fear about your life ending after having a baby is SO real for so many women, myself included. And you are living proof that life/youth does not end once you become a mom!! the way you have adapted to life with Rio while still doing things for yourself and for work inspires me truly. You are not just a mom but you are LAUREN and you continue to amazing at both! You inspire me! Thank you for always being honest & sharing with us ❤️

As a fellow 26 year old woman who sometimes feels SO OLD since becoming a mom….thank you…thank you for taking the time to write me and share how my content is valuable to you. It really helps me get out of my own head and be present when making my videos 🥹 i love you

Just because your not living “the 9-5” job, doesn’t mean that your feelings aren’t valid. The mom guilt is real, the wife guilt is real.just because you’re more fortunate than others, doesn’t mean you can’t go and have fun and live a great life you know. I know you don’t know me but I love you girl and we all support you, you got this girl!

Needed this. Thank you

Wait I love how vulnerable you’re being because from the outside looking in it looks like you have it soooo together. It’s nice to know we all struggle. Sending you so much love, strength, and peace ❤

When Lauren started crying, I started crying. First of all I love that you gave yourself permission to feel vulnerable and to process this. (I’m a therapist btw) From experience, you have to let yourself feel. Love this girl, and love you! ❤️❤️❤️

You crying when i did is giving empath. QUEEN

I once heard this quote “it doesn’t matter if you are sinking in 20ft of water and the person next to you is sinking in 40ft of water. You both are still sinking” you are valid and you are doing an amazing job ❤

Love this video Lauren! Your mom viewers get it. 100% men don’t understand what we go through on a daily basis, and our parents lived in a different time, perhaps with different circumstances, so they often don’t understand either. Just because we can make motherhood look amazing, doesn’t mean it’s easy. Rooting for you and cheering you on as viewers - you’re doing amazing mama and Rio’s a lucky boy 💕

Honestly Lauren as a 23 year old women seeing you become a mom and still continueing to do the things you did Before motherhood is so inspiring to me. Keep it up you are doing an amzing job I look forward to motherhood now seeing that i can still be myself after becoming a mom.

I've been a mostly quiet follower for years and years (you're literally one day older than me slay) and while I'm not a mom yet, I SO looked forward to your mommy content. I loved hearing you be so real about your pregnancy, birthing experience, and now actively raising your son. It makes me feel so much more confident going into motherhood before I'm in my 30's, I never wanted to identify only with being a mom and you prove you don't have to. You can still be yourself while being a mother. You're literally the coolest Lauren, we're all so proud of your mom journey. You're doing amazing ❤

Grateful to give you all the big sister vibes 🥲🥲🥲🥲 even at 1 day older

ngl I’ve watched your videos for years and started to feel disconnected a bit with the mom journey because I’m not at that point in my life yet but seeing you talk about it in such a vulnerable way made me cry and I felt that connection again in just being a woman in general and knowing I might go through it one day is so comforting to know I can already have content to lean on and prepare me

The honest talks you have are always a breath of fresh air. You remain grounded and realistic in every phase. Thank you for being you ❤ wish you the best

loving your new clean mom aesthetic but still a baddie idk it’s soooo the vibe

We all have our own struggles. Don’t ever invalidate yours because someone else might have it worse than you. Don’t feel guilty, because you worked for the position that you are in. You and Henny created such and beautiful life for your family and you have all the right to live it because it is yours. Most of those who hate on you are jealous of what they could have, but are not driven enough to get it like you did and still are :) Also the green dress looks stunning on you 🤩

My baby is 10 months old and I appreciate your vulnerability!! Being a mom is the biggest blessing and the biggest challenge. Rio is lucky to have you!

Lauren just want to let you know that although your job and situation might look "easy" to others, it comes with it's own struggles that are super valid. From my point of view you are being an amazing mother and slaying at your job as well. Don't feel guilty about having fun while working, you are lucky to have a job that you love! Just because you're taking time away from your partner/baby due to a fun activity (work or not), doesn't mean you're not prioritizing/caring for them! You are a better mother and wife by first caring for you! You are doing amazing!

Imposter Syndrome is a real thing. You’ve earned the spot you’re in. You deserve the life you’ve dreamt and created Lauren. Live it guilt-free, and hard is hard. Struggle looks and feels different from person to person. 💗

I know this was not meant for me but giiiirl! I needed to read this 😂thank you I’m going to save this comment and read it every day.

A friend from work got me this little plaque when I had my first baby that says “You’re doing a great job”. That tiny stupid plaque got me through some of the hardest days. I gave it to my sister when she had her twins, and she gave it back to me just recently when I had my third (and last 😅) baby. I have it by my kitchen sink and it soothes my soul daily. You are doing a great job. ❤ And don’t worry, it also gets easier and the people who aren’t genuinely happy for you fade into the background where they belong. ❤

Omg I love that, I'm totally getting one for my sister.

I don't have children of my own but I think these conversations are important. And I'm sure you are not alone. My great aunt once told me that she was worried if she would ever be able to go see a movie after having children. I think everyone goes through this process of trying to find themselves again as this new person and how everything fits into the routine when they become parents. Your feelings are completely valid ☺️

Lauren, honestly, every time I watch your videos, I ADMIRE how you and Henny are doing the whole parenting thing. I feel like you found the best way to raise a kid. Rio is so happy, and honestly, you make me feel so much more comfortable to have kids because people make it look so scary, and everybody is so negative. But you and Henny are doing an amazing job, and I'm proud of you and so happy for you! ❤️🩷💛

I’m 31 and have a 7 month old. This is so relatable!!!! I’ve been with my husband for 11 years and have so much incredible support but having a baby puts so many different strains on our relationship and it makes me so sad sometimes. I think part of it is just mourning the old me in every sense. I am a completely different woman, wife, sister, daughter. It’s so beautiful but so hard to come to terms with sometimes. I always feel better after a good cry. Thank you for sharing this side of motherhood! It’s so refreshing to look up to someone who is younger than me. Love you 🫶🏽

Right here crying with you girl! As a new mom even for the second time, it’s really hard to let yourself cry when you have things that other moms might not have but your experience is verrrryyy valid. We are human ❤

I would hope every mommy from the entire socioeconomic spectrum loves their child enough to wonder if they are doing right by them, concerns are rooted in love and manifests in awareness

Having support and resources and health...and STILL struggling, is absolutely what being a mom is like. It is hard. It's insanely hard when you don't have what you need--and it is still extremely hard when you DO have what you need. That is the nature of the calling on parenthood. You guys are doing great. ❤

Wow the post cry slay. So proud of you. You are eating life, influencer, relatable birch and motherhood up.

i’m 24 and have a (just turned) one year old and literally have never heard someone else’s experience about mom guilt and not being understood more spot on then what you described. literally tearing up because i feel like im not alone so thank you for that little clip of you being vulnerable because you made me feel 10x better about everything ive been going through💛 we got this💛

You calling me your mom is quite literally the highest compliment

I'm so glad you kept that in the video Lauren. Sometimes you seem to have it so together and it kinda feels that the videos are just about clothes and eating out, which I love btw, but it's good to hear your thoughts from the heart. I'm the same age as you and I feel like you and I love that I can see I could be a mother too.

Lauren!! It doesn’t matter what your occupation may be. Being a mother itself, is the hardest job you can have. A literal little humans life is in your hands. Give yourself more credit. It’s awesome that you realize you are blessed and you appreciate things. Having a child/being a mother is an unexplainable feeling, until you have one of your own. You’re doing great momma!

Needed this!

Hi, 25 year old mom of 2 boys here!! As soon as you started crying, I started crying. You are doing amazing, and even on the days you aren’t, you ARE! Rio & Henny are so lucky. The mom guilt is REAL, but so is the love and joy that come with it. Hang in there mamas. You are so beautiful inside and out!

I kind of missed you being vulnerable, thank you for sharing your experience as a mother. As one who works full time and has my daughter in private school it can be a struggle but my struggle isn’t more of a struggle than yours. A struggle is a struggle regardless. But you are doing amazing!!

“Mom guilt” was something I’ve always been warned about but let me tell you there’s nothing that prepares you for the weight of the world you feel becoming a mother. You are everything and more for everyone in your life especially that sweet boy! You’ve got this Lauren!

i love how raw this felt! dont be scared to show/talk abt ur struggle just bc of how blessed u r! we understand that despite what position u r in in life, life is still hard. if it is something u want to share, definitely do. it feels more personal. sending u sm love 🤎

i know it's hard to feel the love when its coming at you from the comment section but you are genuinely so valued. you have unknowingly helped raise me and your son is blessed to have you as a mum, at any capacity. you are worthy, you are enough. thank you for being so real xx

What you told, while getting ready, was the most relatable feeling I have ever heard. I’m only 24y and I have a little 2y old boy. The feeling of not being understood by others, while you do have a lot of people around you to lean on, is something very heavy to carry. Even thought you talk about it with others, it doesn’t go away.

This was actually really relatable not only as a new mom but as a person in general. You expressing this really just gives us future moms just another perspective on motherhood. Your doing amazing, and I am happy for and proud of you, as a long time follower 😊❤❤❤❤❤

Beyond happy for you and you are soooo deserving of the life you live. I’m constantly motivated by you to see the love that life can bring, shows me how fun life can be as a mother. Made me cry, been watching you for years and so proud of you mama, thank you for being vulnerable with us. You’re soooo seen and beautiful, cheers to you boo!!!

Thank you for being real with us!!!! I love your content! Even though im not a mother yet, it brings me so much comfort how real you are with us! You’re amazing Lauren ❤❤❤

Thank you so much Lauren. You don’t know how “not alone“ it feels to hear someone else go through the same thing. Thank you for being vulnerable 🤍

thank you for sharing your mom life with us, even when it gets hard. i have so much respect for you and ALL the mommy’s out there, you’re all superheroes, truly. it’s ok to not feel 100%,, it’s ok if you want to cry, ITS OK. thank you for being vulnerable with us, we’re here for you whenever you feel like crying. love you so so much && you’re doing great at this mommy life, Rio is truly the luckiest to have you as his mom !! don’t forget that ! 💛

The vulnerability in this vlog really means a lot. New moms do just need to hear that they’re doing a good job and that someone is proud of them. No one understands all of the internal battles we face unless they’ve been through it. My relationship ended due to the fact that he wasn’t able to even begin to understand everything that i was struggling with. It was too much for him. I’m so proud of you for opening up and being quite the most amazing mother I’ve seen on the internet. The love you have for rio shows and he is an incredibly lucky boy to have you as a mom

The moment you started saying guys don't understand what we go through and then paused, then continued on and cried. It is so true. So relatable. Thank you for saying what all of us moms are feeling! I appreciate you!

Lauren, fellow mama here!! I related to sooo much that you’re feeling🤍 know there’s so much power in being vulnerable & standing in your truth. You are valid in every single emotion you’re experiencing & no matter the differences every mother faces, your struggles are valid. I love you, I’m here cheering you on, it will get easier. You are a phenomenal mother 🫶🏽💕

Lauren thank you for keeping your talking it out session in. I started law school around the same time you had rio and flopped this semester. I know it’s not the same at all but I really appreciated having someone to cry with. Love you so much and you are doing so amazing. Your content truly means so much to me

I’m genuinely so happy for you Lauren. I’ve been following you for years. I have 3 kids of my own and my life is definitely different than yours but every mom struggles. I love that you kept that in the video. I love that you can continue your career for Rio and I am very proud and happy for you. It’s not your responsibility to understand why people around you resent you. Always focus on the good. I support you and I love how real you are. Thank you for sharing with us how you feel. Another reason to love you more.

Lauren!! This was so lovely. You sharing your vulnerability is going to resonate with so many. You're never alone and thank you for speaking to the nuance of how you're feeling and putting this out there. 💓

Thank you for being so vulnerable. ❤ I totally resonate with you right now and it's so nice to know I'm not alone. I recently became a mum and oh my lord nothing can prepare you for it. You quickly realise you have to show up for your baby every day no matter how sick or how tired you are and it's HARD. Just know your doing absolutely amazing 😘

This IS something relatable. Being a mom is extremely hard. No matter what the situation is. You’re carrying it so well, and everyone carries it differently. As long as your little family is healthy and love exists within in it, that’s all that matters. From one momma to another, doing amazing!

this was so authentic and real. I loved seeing you show the full emotions you were going through. You’re doing everything you can momma. Everyone’s situation is different, and you can compare but each story has their own struggles/battles. Keep being you and the best momma.

Oh Lauren we are so happy for you and beyond proud of you ❤ you’ve been constantly pumping out content while being there for Rio always. Just because your struggle is different doesn’t mean you don’t have hard days ❤ beyond proud of you and Henny for creating your little family and supporting it the way that brings you so much joy 🫶🏻 never feel guilty for that

Lauren! I appreciate you being so vulnerable and REAL with us. I have been following your journey since Vine days and you have been such an inspiration to me. Same age but on completely different paths. Thank you for sharing your struggles and being so relatable. Although our struggles are different (I desire a husband and kids so badly but Im single currently) it's important to be reminded that everyone is on their own rollercoaster. You are doing so well hun! I can tell you are such an amazing wife/mom/friend and your life will continue to flourish in the way its meant to! Sending love

Lauren, thank you. I’m a 25 year old new mom with a good support system and nothing to complain about and it’s still HARD. It can still feel so lonely and scary and like no one knows how you feel. These feelings are so real and it’s just nice to know we’re all in this together. You’re a great mom and Rio is so blessed to be your baby!!

YOU KEEP GETTING MORE AND MORE GORGEOUS

The mom portion of the video helped me so much. I’m 24, about to be a first time mom, and terrified is an understatement about how I feel. There’s so much guilt about negative feelings surrounding having a child because it IS such a blessing, but it’s so hard to not anticipate the stress that is going to come with it. I’m so happy and wouldn’t change a thing, but I’m so scared of my life as I know it changing forever. Thank you for your vulnerability and honesty 🤍 please keep doing what you’re doing, you’re helping women of all stages of life more than you know!

i’m watching this on my lunch and watching you cry broke my heart like i was watching my best friend cry. you’ve given so much for yourself to your audience, your family, your friends and we’re all so proud of you! you’re an amazing woman ❤ you truly are in such an authentic space and i’m so happy to be able to watch your journey!! you look stunning and i hope you feel better 💐

When you started crying I wanted to cry with you! I’m not a mom yet, but I want to be so badly, I love your content and have watched you through all season of your life for years and years. This journey and person you are now is SO incredibly inspiring, I look at you with so much admiration! Thank you for always being so real, authentic and truly you and letting us follow along on this journey.

You’re doing an amazing job! I feel like people who have followed you for a long time are proud of you and how you’ve handled all the change that has happened the last few years. I love your content and my heart goes out to you. Saying a little prayer for you and your family!

Hey Lauren, wanted to let you know that you are doing such an amazing job! Being a mom is one of the hardest things but the biggest blessing. I also think regardless of what a mom does as a women we will always get judged. I think the best thing we can do is always just do what is best for our families and no matter what as long as our home is happy and we are healthy that’s the biggest blessing. But truly I can relate to this so so much! Because ITS HARD and please don’t feel alone! 🤍🤍

Im 15 and I’m already starting my life being productive and working for myself to one day be a great mother but to know that you struggle still is something that is improtant to remember and acknowledge cause everyone’s experiences are valid and overall it’s a blessing to be able to say I went on a walk today because others aren’t given that chance but your seen and heard and the passionate content you share is a blessing for me and others and overall like a inspiring community to strive for productivity and happiness.

I find your videos so comforting and seeing you become a mom made me excited to be a mom too someday. You’re always so authentically yourself and your videos really made me feel like having kids is something so beautiful and exciting, but at the same time it’s not the only part of your identity and you can still be yourself and live your life. I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability so much and you deserve your success! Your videos inspire me too as I’ve always hoped to be able to make a living off creating content someday since I’ve realized the 9-5 life really isn’t for me. We all have different struggles in our lives too and shouldn’t feel guilty because our struggles are different than someone else’s. Seeing you cry had me crying too and I’m always rooting for you and wishing you the best 🥺♥️

I never comment but Lauren as a new subscriber I think you’re doing great adjusting too so much in so little time. It’s inspiring seeing a new mom being herself and still aspiring to be better everyday for her family . I also love how honest you are regarding this journey, it’s so refreshing on here - much love to you 🤍

Sweet Lauren. This is why your KZread fam loves you. Thank you for being vulnerable, and just know we are absolutely cheering you on. You’re incredible. Love you.

this is why i love you😭 you talk ab how you feel so openly YOUR FEELINGS ARE VALID GIRL❤️❤️❤️

Lauren, it’s beautiful that you also show your vulnerable! It encourages each and everyone of us that it is ok to not always be ok…that we don’t always have to pretend we have everything figured out! Life is challenging and especially when you have responsibility for another human being! You are doing great, sweety! Lots of love from Germany 🇩🇪 ❤

You are such a light in so many people's lives. We don't see everything of course, but from where I'm sitting, you're doing great

Thank you for being so vulnerable. Regardless of whether people can relate or not your experience and feelings are 100% valid. I looooooved this video!! Sending love from NY! 💗💗💗💗

thank u 4 being so vulnerable and honest

Thank you for being vulnerable about this. I’ve been watching you since you were on vine. I’m now 25 and my son will be 4 in September. I teared up hearing you talk about this because I can relate and I know a lot of other young moms can too. Cry as much as you need, vent as much as ur heart desires. Everything you’re feeling is extremely valid. You are going thru the most transformative point of ur life where you are no longer the person you once were. But TRUST & BELIEVE everything you are going thru is leading you to a version of yourself that you’re meant to be. Transformation is uncomfortable but give urself that grace mama. I love you🩷

We love you Lauren. Thank you for sharing a more vulnerable side of you. Not a mom but every single thing you said really touched me. ❤ sending love

Lauren, Thank you for sharing your experience. What you’re going through is motherhood. It’s an overwhelming experience. Live the life you have been given. If it works for you and your husband, that’s all that matters. Everyone’s experience is different. From what I’ve seen, you are doing an awesome job. Your baby’s is gorgeous, happy, and healthy! You go girl! Felicidades.

I have watched your videos for years and as a mom of two I have never realated to your videos more. Also your aloud to have your feelings validated, no matter what you do or job you have,mom feeling effect everyone and it’s lovely to see you express that. Your doing amazing ❤️

Thank you for your vulnerability, and for showing up authentically to your community. We are so proud of all you have done, especially how you are growing as a mommy. Rio and Henny are so so lucky. Sending you so much love and a big hug 🤍

I was just talking to my mom about how there’s no winning as a mom regardless of what you do/what your situation is being a mom is HARD. You can’t truly understand it until you experience it. You’re giving your baby boy an amazing life and that’s what matters (and doing things for yourself is a crucial part of that bc you need to be happy to do it!!) ❤️❤️

You are doing amazing, and clearly giving Rio the best life he could possibly have. But it's okay to feel your feelings! Even though your situation is different or "better" than others, your feelings are still valid, and it's so sweet of you to share the very real things of what you're going through with the ladies watching that are currently moms or hoping to be in the future. You have so many people that you've never even met in your corner, thinking you're doing amazing, proud of you and inspired by you. 💗

I have been following since forever but I never leave a comment. Your are so amazing lauren so humble so gentle you have a pure heart. All these beautifull things you have and still you are so you so authentic !

being a mom is so hard!! so many emotions come with it but it is the best feeling at the same time its so hard to describe. lauren, youre doing an amazing job mama were all here for each other!

I love you so much Lauren. Thank you for being so vulnerable. Remember you worked hard to get where you are and have the life you do, so enjoy your life, it's too short not to. I'm beyond proud of you!!

Honestly Lauren, your content is a breath of fresh air and it is so good to see someone who became a mother but did not lose their identity. I’m not a mom yet but I have seen that the mom community is so unrealistic sometimes about the type of balance they think a woman is supposed to have. It’s nice to see someone who has such a beautiful little family and still is her silly youthful hot mama self. I’m sure there have been compromises but you are truly mom goals girl! God bless you guys and I hope that you continue to have the amazing support system you have so Rio can continue to have a peaceful and loving life ❤ he will absolutely appreciate all of the hoops you guys jumped through for him without a doubt. You’re doing an AMAZING job and I couldn’t be more happy for anyone else than you guys and how great life seems to be treating you all 💕🌸

been here for a long time, will be here forever. we all growing old with you girl, and we’re all SO PROUD of you and your family, I think I talk for everyone when I say you’re literally an inspiration in life, your struggles are valid and you deserve all the good things. go off and enjoy your life, you’re a mom but you’re also super effing young, you deserve to live a LONG AND HAPPY AND FUN life!

i grew up with a pretty absent relationship with my mom and an older sister who was dealing with a lot of mental illness and was emotionally checked out, so in short, i have had very few maternal/older sister/older women in my life to guide me. watching this video made me reflect on how comforting your videos are, how your wisdom and grace is literally inspirational to me, and how much i admire you and look up to you. to say you are doing a great job is probably an underestimation. you are so so wise and poised and graceful and authentic, and you make younger girls like me feel seen. i hope you know how much of a good job you are doing.

I love how raw this vlog was, thank you for sharing the struggles of mom life, I’m definitely not a mom but I love hearing about this topic of manhood, I feel like moms never talk about it enough or share expectations vs realities like you’re doing and I love it! Thank you, you’re amazing you’re doing the dang thing girl! 🤍 love you babe

You’re amazing. Seriously amazing, thank you for speaking on being pregnant and being a mother. I’m pregnant with my first and it’s already been a rollercoaster of emotions. It has not been an easy ride. I have gained so much respect for mothers throughout this journey. Thank you for being so real and raw about this 🩷 you’re an incredible mother and an incredible human being.

Hi Lauren! I love you and your content. The guilt you feel for having a blessed life just means you are aware of what you have and that is an amazing thing! It shows more about yourself, your humility, and that you are someone who wants to and is able to take on challenges and overcome them. Previous generations may have had it rougher but they get to see you and know their hard work is worthwhile because look what YOU turned it into! As a mom, you are setting an incredible example for Rio and for us of what life can be like and to dream BIG. You give me hope, happiness, and overall motivation by showing us this is POSSIBLE, even as a mom AND a young mom! Don't forget you worked hard to get to where you are, you sacrificed your vulnerability to build your platform and your current life. Soak it all in, you're doing fantastic sis! Love from the laudy and miami girlies xx

lauren!!!! i’ve been watching your content since vine days. seeing the person you are today is so incredible and inspiring to me!! i love your authenticity, thank you for being comfortable enough to share with us. i am proud of you & how far you’ve come and you’re doing AMAZING 🫶🏽✨💌 all my love to you !!!

The consistent vulnerability and transparency is always appreciated Lauren💖

You have remained so down to earth with all your success. Wish you happiness love! We understand you 🤎

Lauren , Thank you for being so real with your feelings. As a new mom myself I can totally relate on your feelings. You are not alone and you are doing such a good job! ♥️♥️ being a new mom is difficult and everyone has different challenges!

my favorite video up to date hands down. i don’t think i’ve ever seen you cry and be this vulnerable and share struggles with us. you’re our inspiration and you’re doing amazing. keep doing you mama. somebody is always gonna find something to criticize or hate. let them.

I’m 43 with a 9 year old and I think you’re doing great. I had her at 33 and it was still a struggle as a first time mom. Motherhood is different for all of us and there’s no manual for any of it. We all have our own path and this one is yours. People can be mad about it. They can put on a cape and be super mad about it. Where some may see self absorbed I see self aware. Keep doing you because the rest of us are here for it.

I am so happy you shared your feelings and opened up. This makes you so relatable and human! You are not alone with your thoughts and feelings; we all go through it ❤

Thanks for keeping it real and talking about this in general! I think a lot of moms (me included) can relate to the struggle in balancing your work-, love and parent life, simultaneously trying to get to know and understand your new self. As a first time mom of an almost 2 year old I want to tell you; embrace it… embrace it all, because it is part of the process!! life comes in waves and after some time adjusting, most of the pieces will fit - it will all make sense and waves definitely become less intense. From what I hear and see in your videos your an amazing person, mom and wife. Hugs and kisses from the Netherlands

I literally love you so much, been watching you for a good 10 years and probably won’t ever stop, God bless you and your family Lauren 💕💕💕

wow this was so freaking relatable. i was surprised yet amazed at your vulnerability! thank you for making me feel heard and seen! i work from home doing hair and have my own flexible schedule & constantly looked at as if i have it SO good. i still struggle. mentally, physically, emotionally. thank you. so much.

you’re literally made for this life you have now!! you’re doing amazing lauren 🩷 love you always!!

Girl no one should be putting you down whatsoever! I'm so sorry you are feeling that way. Family is everything for support, but that can also be the most toxic, and hurtful at the same time. At the end of the day just keep doing the best you can for you, Henny, and Rio. That's all that matters. You are doing amazing Lauren truly. People are envious of you, but don't forget your journey, and struggles to get where you are right now. Us fans that have been here through it all know, and we are so proud of you.

The vulnerability you showed in this video is so beautiful & so authentic & very refreshing to feel through a KZread video I’m watching. YOU are so beautiful. 1 of 1 soul. Keep doing you. You inspire me Lauren.

You are doing a great job, Lauren. It takes time to get back into a routine, and having kids just changes everything in life. It's hard to have big transitions in life, but we learn and grow from them!

you crying made me cry! lauren thank you for being honest and sharing all that comes with being a new mom. i may not be in that stage of my life but its so refreshing to see the humanness of you!

Lauren you are your own person and none of that loses its weight and value when you become a mom! Just take it day by day and know that we are here for you and will never judge you for what you are feeling because your feelings are valid❤❤❤

Lauren you are truly doing an amazing job at being rios mom and being your authentic self. We’ve loved this journey with you and will continue to stick by your side ♡
