Omg i love tia !!!!!!!!!
Where did you get the take away mugs ?
Dada
Thank you for your wonderful and interesting video, I enjoyed watching 👍
Im way behind watching your series, but we are snowed in and your videos are keeping me with happy!!!! your baby boy is seriously the cutest, and looks like daddy!! you have glowed and shin!!! you are inspiration!!! (bwt i had the orange one, and it was amazing but i passed out and was shaking so bad from ugly reaction from my glucose test 😩)
Desi: im in such a bad mood also Desi: continues to be the nicest person on earth
Finally getting around to watching this episode hella late but love how we can hear your mom slip up and say Ocean's name at one point. Did anyone catch it??
"i don't want to bore you with that" as if i'm not hanging onto her every word, showing my boyfriend her coffee/tea drawer and wine rack...desi i am so in love with your pantry
Mine was always and orange flavor and it wasn't horrible it tasted like a really sweet thick orange soda without carbonation but fridge and straw was key for me and all it did to me was made me burp
The liquid for the glucose test I took tasted like a suuuuper sweet orange soda with lots of sugar lol still nasty
I’m rewatching these and Desi’s mom says Ocean’s name at 20:04. Lol
Did nobody notice the bug on Desi's overalls! AHH freaked out when it started climbing to her neck lmaooo 25:21
oml yes i was just scrolling through the comments being like did anyone else notice?! also love how were both watching this video so late haha
Your tia omg 🥺🥰🥰🥰
I love how much steven has desi's back and understands her with everything. ugh, beautiful family! 🙏🏻❤️
I was saying the same thing about Abuelita. It doesn’t even taste like chocolate anymore 💔. Its literally all sugar.
Yea... everyone always says the drink is nasty for the glucose test, I’ve done 3, the orange ones, it’s like a flat sugary Fanta, oh yea.... CONGRATULATIONS!!! I just had a baby boy... I’m so happy for u guys!!!!!!! Awwwww yay!!
Does anyone know where she got the tea storage holders?
This whole part with the pantry organization has my heart racing with excitement 😂
That “Thank you mommyyy” was adorable. 😭🥺🥰
Omg the diabetes drink tasted like Tropicana Fruit Punch to me..sweet as hell...the sugar run was what made me sick not the taste
The 50g glucose drink isn’t that bad! I would tell people it’s like a flag sprite. I was a phlebotomist for 7 years. There’s 3 different kinds depending on the test, 75g is orange flavor, kind of like Sunkissed. 100g is fruit punch. The more sugar, the worst the drink is. It’s usually more dramatic than people say
I had the orange glucose drink and honestly it just tastes like flat orange soda i kinda loved it lmao. I think it being cold is definitely key.
I threw up at my glucose test 3 times and almost fainted 🤣🤣🤣 it was like burning cherry flavor it made me so sick
my liquid was not bad at all it was just really sweet. I think some just have sensitive taste buds while pregnant or over dramatic lol
It's amazing how us moms even we don't have the dinero and we buy our baby essentials from a thrift store , it makes us very happy to only fold one baby blanket about 10, 000 times the 10001 time it's still special, enjoy Perkins 👪
The glucose test reminded me of a high concentrated orange Gatorade 🍊 😅
The glucose test drink always came back out for me
I’m so sure Steven takes the first sip 🥺🥺🥺 I love his love for you. What a partner. 💓
I freakin love this vlog. I laughed so much !! You found a potato girl? 😩😩 did you send out a memo ? Lol
I had to chug lime flavor ugh... I almost threw up :P
This series give so much warmth and comfort. This Family is my happy place on the internet
My husband and I prefer Ibarra to Abuelita.
Steven telling Tia " I lav yuu" 😭💓💓
Tasted like WHAT desi!??
That glucose bottle looked ominous I will say haha the nastiest shit I've ever had in my life was the drink you have to chug 2x 1 litre bottles of!!! And no food allowed at the same time all for a colonoscopy. Legit it smells like burnt rubber tyres and I'm not being dramatic like the ppl who scared you. My partner smelt it and was like nope but I made him try it
The glucose test isn’t bad at all I had fruit punch lol the only thing I didn’t like was feeling nauseous afterwards
can we talk about Tia’s Selena shirt!!! icons supporting icons
Awww the bump is everything it looks so cute un your outfits! 😍😍
i love your tia sooo much
I met my Husband when i was 25, We both knew we wanted kids and we knew we needed to get started soon. So i decided to go for fertility test and get some basic testing done, when the result came out my report was totally discouraging, my doctor told me that probably my only chance to get pregnant was to use a donor egg. I was absolutely shocked, we hadn’t even started trying yet, and all of a sudden I was told that I had absolutely no chance of getting pregnant on my own, my head was full of terrifying thoughts like I wouldn’t ever be a mother etc. But luckily my beloved, i found dr ebhariagbe spell and herbs whose contact was shared on Fertility blog. He is in West Africa and the charges for the herbs was so sweet and more than acceptable for me, the herbs was sent to me in few days and i followed the simple steps and i was confirmed pregnant a month after using the medication. I want everyone desperately in need for a child to contact him on this info,WhatsApp contact number +2349064310416 or visit his Instagram page via @dr_ebhariagbe. I spent less money than planned, you gonna get the best from him. Thanks...
First words: dada. They never give it up for the mama 😬😂
My drink both times was orange and I liked it. To me it tasted like orange soda.
I had to drink this neon hot pink drink. It was 🤮 and to make things worse, they made drink it twice for a second test.
My glucose test drink just tasted like a Sunkist that they forgot to carbonate. It was pretty good.
I love tia oh my goodness she’s such a jewel 😭
Lol had the orange one three times and it wasn’t bad at all either!!
What are the plants along the fence? :)
I don't know why people say the glucose drink is disgusting. It's like flat lemonade. It's not the worst thing to drink.
My baby was long and skinny! That’ll probably be you
Love your house wow I wish I had it to be mine
Thanks for sharing your pregnancy journey with us
Gurl when I took that test the liquid was thick af it was terrible I threw it up and had to redo it next day. Yes the orange was terrible. You guys are such great vibes. God bless you and your family always.
Desi you have a beautiful healthy family which is so heartwarming to watch 💓💓💓💓 I feel better just by watching your vlogs! God bless your entire wonderful family 💕💕💕
Desi , you have to do a pregnancy photo shoot with the swing. That outdoor space is magical.
The liquid was so nasty! In Finland We have to drink more the you. But anything for the baby, right ❤️ you two look so happy all the time ❤️
Omg I love 💕 ❤️💙💙💙 love love dad “ honey you can have whatever you want” so sweet! He’s such a proud papa bear I can’t. Made me cry, and it’s hard to do that!! This little man is already so loved it’s incredible sweet and 100% pure ! Desi and Steven congratulations 🎉🍾! I know this is a long time coming but you guys deserve everything plus more right now and always. Xox
I appreciate the step by step instructions! Now on to make my husband watch this so he can get to work!😁
That was not the drink that I had to have during my glucose test. Mine was orange. It tasted like orange soda that they added more sugar to.
i cannot help but see so much privilege, and that’s what makes it such a beautiful experience. so glad she’s able to experience it like this as so many women are disadvantaged
That liquid is not bad at all. People are so dramatic. Lol
The best thing is to past the test! Cuz gestational is no fun i had to take my glucose test 2 xs because my results didnt come out clear and i had gestational but thank god me and my son are okay but im glad your okay Desi!♡
I had to take this test one time and they put a HUGE ASS needle in my tummy. I instantly cramped and they were telling me to relax and I was trying too. But I also was a high risk pregnancy and I had been in the hospital for a month.
tia reminds me of my dominican abuela and im obsessed
Re: glucose test. Everyone is different but no bad at all.
Going through your pregnancy with you makes me reminisce on my first pregnancy. 🥰 I remember being so scared when I didn't feel her move for awhile and then finally feeling her and all my nerves would calm 😌. Pregnancy is such a crazy, beautiful, wild experience. I developed carpel tunnel and I'd wake up with an intense pain in my finger and arm, it would make me cry. I had the HARDEST time switching sides, sometimes I would walk up on my back and freak out and turn to my side 😆.
Oh Desi, don’t worry about your weight gain right now! With my first, I started at 100lbs and I gained 60lbs... 🤣🤣 I was massive!!! My butt stuck out just as big as my belly, no joke! 🤣 I have a picture from the side because that was actually really funny to us. I was getting worried but I went back to normal tho! Needless to say, you’ll snap right back to normal! You’ve looked so beautiful through this whole journey and I’m sure you’ll always treasure every moment! ❤️🙏🏻
Haha! It’s not bad! Mine tasted like orange soda 🤷🏻♀️
nothing that can make you feel more alone-or stressed out-than trying to conceive. While you might have spent the better part of your youth doing all that you could to not get pregnant, when you're ready to build your family and the going gets tough, it's normal to have anxiety. Though TTC can feel exhausting, frustrating and lonely, the CDC estimates that more than ten percent of all couples will struggle with fertility-that's 1 in 10 partnerships.I want to thank God for putting a smile in my face, I have been looking for the fruit of the womb for the pass six years of marriage. I took in last year after taking the pill a dr gave to my husband, he met with a doctor you gave us assurance that I will get pregnant within a month after taking a particular pill. But I still call it magical pill, because it happen the way he said it. All thanks to God I have my own baby now and is a boy. You too can contact him if you have the same issue on doctoreddymon@gmail.com or call and WhatsApp him on +2348128107710
Loving Tia in the Selena shirt
I can’t believe I didn’t watch this one yet 😓 But yes.. the red or orangish looking glucose drink is the yucky one, from what I remember. & I’m totally nesting right now 😭😂🙌🏼 I’m 19 weeks & started cleaning the house yesterday. Couldn’t finish everything.. taking lots of breaks lol. I’m starting to feel the cramping too (uterus is growing/stretching - making room for baby). I’m starting to feel my son move more now too 🥰 He’s so active! It’s so reassuring watching your videos.. i’m right behind you - well 2 months 😁
I barely hold it in after that glucose drink...
So excited for you and Steven! ❤️❤️ the swing is perfect. Don’t do grape vines on the swing set. Grapes are toxic for some pup breeds!
The gluclose drink I had tasted like sprite lol
The Orange one is discussing!!!! That one isn’t that mad lol you got lucky
Mine tasted like super thick orange soda concentrate syrup with no fizz. It was NOT clear like that. And I didn’t take it at home, I had to get my blood drawn, take it at the lab, sit and wait for 2 hours, all hopped up on sugar 😂😂😂 then get my blood drawn at home
How funny when Steven understood the “guapo” part and Desi didn’t translate it but he right away mentioned it. Steven tú estás bien guapo y ella está hermosa. Van a tener hijos hermosos.. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
You shouldn't store the potatoes next to the onions. It will make the potatoes sprout
This gives me baby fever again. I miss those baby gymnastics in the belly!
The scene after the glucose test.. Wow. Stunning! Glow momma! 🤩😘
The pain in the groin area (at the spot where your thigh turns into your hip/groin) can also be round ligament pain, dont let him freak you out. The round ligaments are keeping your placenta and the baby in place and sometimes, when you or he have a growth spurt they can hurt because they need to stretch and adjust. And same with the movements, if hes generally active there will always be times when hes more chill. Especially during the last month of pregngnacy when theres less wriggle room. My baby didnt move for 12 hours a few weeks before i gave birth. Doctors sometimes freak us out 😂
Omg I didn't realize abuelita was bought out. A few years ago I had abuelita hot chocolate and it suddenly didn't taste like I remembered growing up, I stopped drinking it since then. I kind of just chalked it up to growing out of it but maybe they changed the recipe a bit. Whatever it is, I guess I'm not the only one who noticed. :(
Steven is so sweet to u always understanding too cute you two are so cute
ur backyard is my absolute goals. i love how you value your outdoor space so much 💖 baby will love it out there
For some reason I always thought her mom lived with them!
Listen the orange flavor is absolutely disgusting
I have NO IDEA why people say the glucose test is gross lol it literally tastes like orange soda 😂🤦🏽♀️
I drank an orange one for my glucose test and it wasn't bad at all. People were also telling me how nasty it is, but it just tasted like flavored water to me. Like those powders you add to water to make a drink or something. Idk what they were tasting, but I got pedialyte vibes from what I drank lol
Gas and bloating: Fun fact - I was in my 3rd trimester and I was holding in my fart as I was walking around my area at work. Well... I let out a quick and fast fart 💨 as I walked right in front of my boss’ desk. And it was loud. I was so embarrassed. Didn’t acknowledge it of course and just hurried back to my desk. That’s when I was preggo with my boy 🤪
The glucose drink I had to drink was absolutely disgusting. I threw it up and had to reschedule. I’m so glad your experience was better!
When I had to take a glucose test, the liquid tasted like super sweet orange soda. It wasn’t that bad. 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
the potato in the mug LOL
everyone freaked me out about the glucose test drink. it was not bad at all!! I drank mine in like a minute lol it tastes like soda!
Glucose liquid for me it was orange flavored and it was just extremely syrupy!!
Hunny, you look Beautiful; enjoy every second, it will fly by. Congrats to you both. Sending love and prayers..🥰
I had the orange one my first pregnancy and the clear one my second pregnancy, I fully enjoyed both and still don’t understand why people always say they’re disgusting. The orange reminded me of Tang and the clear one was like flat lemon lime soda
Hey mama !! We’d all love an update ❤️❤️ miss you
I love your energy!!! Im in my first trimester and I can barely get off the couch, I look forward to this motivation 🤣
I love how amazing Steven is to her. So happy for them and their journey!
I remember when Dezi went to the fertility clinic and saw that sign that said Expect to Expect.
I normally watch the episodes a second it is posted. But this time I couldn’t when I saw your first episode I was crying bc I could relate with your story. And my husband was next to me and said stop watching if it makes you cry and came and hugged me. Why I could not watch the new episodes is bc my husband died on the way home.. all my dreams and hopes are gone. It is more than a month ago and I still can not believe I lost my best friend. He was like Steven very loving and caring husband. God took him and gave me a Angel instead. We will never know why it happened now. I don’t why I am writing it here. I will watch the episodes when I feel ok. But so happy for you enjoy every second ❤️
