Love the realness and rawness of this vlog! Sorry you’re getting so much unsolicited advice and judgement in the comments but know that your genuine crew love you and support you in this adjustment period. X

FINALLY A REAL MUM LIFE VIDEO, none of that fake shit. This was me when I first became a mum. And I that's how everyone on instagram and shit make it look so simple and glamorous when it isn't always. You're doing great Skye, it gets easier over time 💖💖💖 Don't be afraid to reach out for help.

Please be sympathetic towards Skye. She is clearly very grateful that she had a healthy baby as she mentioned. Everyone who has a baby for the first time finds it hard to adjust no matter who you are and that's what she is experiencing. Even though she is crying, that at least shows that she cares and wishes the best for her son so please leave your bad comments in you head and not in Skye's comments because she doesn't need to read that right now.

Now this is a REAL day in the life of a mum, love how real you are!

Honestly skye take some time for yourself! Forget about vlogging or uploading to youtube! We understand you have a new job! And a very important one at that! This first part of parenthood is always the toughest! Getting routines down and getting used to the hecticness. But we will understand!

I love how real this vlog is. Mom life is hard, really, really, hard. I get it 100%. The frustration is real when you are sleep deprived and you feel like you have done all you can to get baby comfortable, settled and happy. I was there, hell, I'm still there at times!! It does get better though! You're killing it girl!

Some of these comments are so harsh & bossy ! Motherhood is bloody tough, especially when it's your first. This is REALISTIC. Some babies just DONT like to sleep for long stretches and babies will go through stretches of regression and emotional fussiest as they develop. Mums need to help each other. It takes a village people. Asking for help and having a vent is 100% okay 👌 Stress is killer, happy mum happy baby.

9:45 “ I’m just gonna keep talking shit.. cause I think he likes that” 😂😂 Why I adore this women honestly!

Babe please consider trying to put him to sleep in his room in the dark, so he knows the difference between day and night, your house is way to bright that could be why he's so hard to get to sleep, all the best honey xx

definitely make the room as dark as you can when you’re putting him to sleep during the day 💗

Oh my gosh, seeing you cry and feel so helpless and overwhelmed makes me so sad 😭 my daughter was the exact same, for the first 6 months, she put me through absolute hell, like god damnnnnn, she didn’t sleep through once.. And it’s NOTHING you’re doing wrong, it’s just how it is at times, but I swear to god, it gets better! You’re doing amazing! And it’s so bloody nice to see the truth behind being a Mum, like you said, you don’t see it on social media at all, and it makes you feel worse. Chin up beautiful, you’ve got this xxx

most realistic mum vlog ive ever seen, honestly what everyone needs to see. keep it up your doing your best and thats what matters x

It gets easier!! Don’t feel guilty for crying it’s HARD, cry your eyes out if you need to! ❤️❤️

just to be 100% honest with you i have taken MANY shits whilst breastfeeding or simply hold my little one in my arms ahaha and that is the truth! sometimes you just have to! being a mom is the HARDEST job in the world but you are the one who has the tools to be his mommy, and you are doing a beautiful job.

Honey please get a family member to come and stay in with you a few days a week, so they can hold the baby and you can get your things done. Take a simple shower, makeup your usual. You will be surprised how those days will do you good. God bless you honey and take care of your mental health during this time have someone around you during the days. ❤️

Babe you are deffs killing mum life. You are putting Forrest first and you’re not sacrificing his well being to put out ‘perfect’ content that looks like you have your shit together. I love seeing such a real representation of being a mum from an influencer. Hard babies are smart babies, my son never slept because he was just so curious wanting to learn everything going on around him and that curiosity followed him through into childhood. It’s hard but you’re raising a smart, strong boy. Keep at it 💖

Both of my children were EXACTLY like your bub until they were 6 -9 months( both breastfed ) . Then they started to sleep a lot more . Some days I literally felt nuts I was so sleep deprived. Just know you are doing a PHENOMENAL job . Don’t be too hard on yourself and take any time out you can for yourself 😘

He looks so much like Lachie!!! His gorgeous Skye you’re so lucky

Also don’t compare your life to what people portray on IG, babies aren’t props for photos. They’re human beings with needs, it’s not easy, just do the best you can.

I totally understand darling. It is so so hard as a first time mum. I remember when I was a first time mum with my son, "hard" is an understatement. The hormones readjusting, the sleep deprivation, the stress and worry, the isolation and adjusting to putting another person before yourself every minute of your life. I totally understand. I'm here to tell you that it DOES get better. I went through post natal depression for almost 2 years. You can do this skye. You are doing so well!! ❤️❤️❤️

Let him cry babe. He'll be ok while you poop or get a glass or water! And i promise it'll get easier!

Thanks so much for this vlog. I have a 4 week old baby, I'm a first time mum and I feel you. It's so refreshing to see a mum going through the same thing makes us know were not alone in this.

Love how honest you are in this vid! So many people hide the real sides of parenthood. I found this soooooo refreshing as a soon to be mum. Knowing that it’s universal to feel overwhelmed etc. You just flew to the top of my faves list 💙 Hope it gets better soon xxx

It’s so good to see someone who is actually real. I thought I was the only one who felt like this when I had my daughter. KZfaqrs looked so perfect and not tired. I felt alone. ❤️❤️

It could be the caffeine effecting his sleep. My mum had this problem with me and cut out coffee while breastfeeding and said I became an angel baby

Omg he is the cutest little boy ever. He's so lucky to have you as his mummy, love you 💕

Definitely my favourite video you’ve done, being so honest and open! ❤️ Worth the wait, don’t stress about content! X

I love you and this video so much. Thank you for making us other moms feel normal! I’m 18 days post partum and feeling the exact same so thank you for using your platform to share something so raw, real and emotional♥️

Sending my love, you’re an amazing Mumma and your baby is perfect! Don’t stress too much you’re doing so well! Xxx

Oh darling, it's okay to cry. You need to let him cry when you want to do stuff. We love you and will support you ❤️

I am not a mother and I am far from being a mother but thank you, thank you for the rawness and honesty. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows and the expectations on mother’s to just get on with it is tremendous. You are doing amazing, not that you need a strangers opinion but you do you girl! You should be so proud of yourself, thank you for your honesty and sharing this with the world. It definitely needs more of this ❤️❤️

Love this! So raw and honest 💕 Motherhood and the transition is so unbelievably hard. Couldn’t help but cry with you when you were upset 💔 100% have been there! Please never apologise for crying or feeling like you shouldn’t be feeling the way your feeling cause every mum has their moments. Your doing amazing! 🥰

You are family goals. Thanks for sharing your life with us xoxo

Sorry can we all just take a second to cry over how big crunchie is getting 😩

Seeing you cry breaks my heart! I have a 2 week old baby girl and caring for a newborn is the HARDEST thing ever. Being sleep deprived and just simply wanting your baby to sleep is really frustrating, but crying really does make you feel better and after I have a little breakdown I feel refreshed and like I can handle 10x more shit thrown my way. You're doing a great job ❤❤❤ he's lucky to have you, everything will come with time

The world needs more people like YOU!! Love how real and authentic you are and not like you’re constantly putting on a show. I respect the freaking crap out of you and YOU GOT THIS!! 💗

Oh my he's adorable 😍😍😍 He's growing so quickly xx You look gorgeous as allways Awe hun I feel for you things will get better, your doing an amazing job!! Stay strong😘♥ Kisses to you. I just want to give you a big cuddle!!

*you’re doing amazing sweetie* hopefully that made you giggle a little bit. I have never commented on a vid of anyone’s before but I need you to keep reading all these nice comments because you are a superwoman and super mum. You are learning not doing anything wrong! Keep trying and everything will work out. You have a beautiful family and an even more beautiful heart xx

I feel for you, I don't miss this stage one little bit ☹️ you're doing a great job Skye hang in there it gets easier and thank you for your honesty! You are doing struggling mums a service by not pretending to have it all together, it's nice to feel you're not alone xx

you're doing an amazing job Skye, Forest is so lucky to have you as his mumma! Love you Skye x

If you haven’t already I would highly recommend downloading the Wonder Weeks app! It will tell you all about his developmental leaps and explains what’s going on in their world! My little girl is 9 weeks old and it makes it easier to know there is a reason, and it’s not you! Hahah sending you love mumma! You’re doing an amazing job 💜💜💜

IT means a lot to me when you Are so honest Because i feel the same 😰

Thanks for sharing the real side of being a new mom! It looks hard and I'm so glad you're being honest about it. You can do it girl! You're doing so so well

I'm not even a mum but I literally cried when you cried. I can tell how hard this is for you but you are doing the best you can for your baby. You are a great mum 💓. Dont allow anyone to tell you what to do, YOU do whats best for YOUR baby. Everyone's experience is different so screw the negative comments. We appreciate you for being so vulnerable, honest, looking after a baby and still posting videos. You CAN because you are STRONG. Moms are wonder women and you are one of them Skye. Sending love,light and positivity your way 🙏🏽❤❤❤

Babe you’re doing amazing! 100% everything you’re experiencing I’ve been there ❤️ especially with my first! 🤪 i don’t know how you juggle it all! X

Yeah first message don’t stress it’s going to get easier and harder but it goes so fast and soon you will be sleeping again also grapes onion cause wind in breast milk I also put my buubbas in the room made it dark each sleep it really helps keep ringing friends and mum when you are unsure or over it they will help

Thank you for being so REAL Skye! Mom life is not easy at all !!!!!! but it will get better trust me! Hang in there momma 💕

I just found your channel at 4am while my baby is FINALLY sleeping! Thank you so much for sharing what you're going through, my son has been doing the same thing for a couple weeks now and I've honestly lost my shit and broke down so many times. No one talks about the "bad" parts of being a new mom at all or they skim over it and don't show the good the bad and the ugly. So thank you so much for sharing and being so raw for all your subscribers and new moms out there!

Be strong mumma youll get there 💗 Ps. you do not look disgusting. Don't be so hard on yourself. Dont forget to take time for yourself when you can 😘 us woman are strong but sometimes we need help too. Lots of love. Forrest is gorgeous!

It gets easier hun. I struggled with my daughter as well, my house was a disaster, didn't get two seconds to myself, didn't sleep well either. Good news is that it gets easier, my daughter is 22 months old now and they get more independent and they sleep through the night too.

I have had four children and I work with infants every day as a Montessori infant teacher and he has to be one of the cutest little guys I have ever seen! He is just beautiful and so are you! I am 49 years old and I love your vlogs! You make me laugh! I promise everything will get better, there is nothing harder than when you bring a newborn home! You are doing great and it is okay to cry and cuss. We have all been there, and each baby is different! Remember, you just brought a human being into this world, it is more than okay to feel what you are feeling. If anybody else says any different, well I think they are fibbing! Bless you all, and thank you for being so real! Sending love from Texas!

You are so real and raw and I honestly love this. You are doing amazing, please don’t forget that xx

Babies totally sense when you’re stressed..I know it’s hard but always remember to stay calm & I promise u it will get better. My daughter was the exact same as your son, she NEVER napped. But she’s now almost 2 & is doing just wonderful & naps so easily now. It only took over a year lol. Hang in there ❤️

Please don't apologize, just don't give up. This was so real, you're real. And this is ALL normal. 😙 you look beautiful don't worry.

Oh god Skye i cant RELATE. Can i just say its SO refreshing to see someone actually talk about this, my baby was exactly the same i couldn't get ANYTHING done and he constantly cried no matter what and also fought sleep! He hated the car, the pram, the bassinet, the cot etc etc. Its SO HARD and hats off to you for being real and not sugar coating it! Thank you xxxxx

My bub was exactly the same. Drove me nuts, we took her to get cranial therapy and she has been a dream baby ever since. Look into. Seriously changed our life. Your doing a great job xxx

Wow. Arent you all experts on here! Give the poor girl a break and just give her love and support.

It’s the fourth trimester girl. Just wrap him on you and live your life.

APPRECIATE this REAL video more than you know!!!!! Setting some real expectations with the shit that comes with motherhood... were all human and at the end of the day we gotta do what works for us!!! Thank you for sharing. Brave mumma xx

Thank you so much for being so honest and raw. Skye you are so brave, so strong, and you’ve got this girl. Sending so much love to you

Sending so much love gal 💝 hoping things get better with lil Forest xx

I’ve never related to someone so much I go through the same feels every day and my daughter is 3 months old. Thank you for sharing this because sometimes I’d feel like I was the only one. ❤️❤️❤️

You’re doing an AMAZING job as a mom Skye! You’ve got this. Cry it out, we all do it. He’s blessed to have a strong woman like you as his mama. This part is the toughest, but it will be SO worth it.❤️

I have so much respect for you posting this vlog. It was real, raw and didnt sugarcoat what it can be like raising a newborn. You are doing an absolutely incredible job and never ever doubt yourself. I myself am 30 weeks pregnant and you havent scared me at all, in fact you have shed some real light that it's going to be hard, there will be good and bad days but in the end we can only do what we can do. Thank you for uploading this Xx

Finally someone shows the REAL mum life. yes, it's NOT all cuteness and glitter. IT'S A BLOODY SACRIFICE (that I love, but I love that you're keeping it real).

I did this at 17 years on my own, no help from my baby’s dad. It’s fucking hard, i know exactly how you feel. My son was on my tit for 90% of the day and night. It gets better, it’s hard to adjust to, it’s harder than people think!!!

Love how real this is!! I went through the same thing i know exactly what your talking and let me tell you it will get better trust me things will get easier just hang in there. Try and take in these moments as much as you can 1 day you will look back and miss how small he was. And to anyone saying negative things lol they are 100% no parent and have no idea ✌

I’m a new mum as well and couldn’t imagine how overwhelming it must be to receive all the advice and opinions you get. It takes time for babies to adjust to this big wide world they’ve been thrown into! You’re doing a great job x

Hey skye just a suggestion try cutting out the caffeine/coffee from your diet as small amounts of caffeine gets to breast milk and some sensitive babies react to it by being restless and not sleeping! Worth a try!!

You are so naturally gorgeous, I wouldn't stress about not having make up on, you're doing awesome x

OMG Skye you're doing great! I'm so impressed and Forest has THE best mum who literally does everything for him. He's so lucky. And don't stress about other mums on Insta. They aren't showing the real mum life. I'm pregnant now week 30 and I will watch your raw videos over ANY of the "look at what a perfect mum I am" videos any day. You are my go-to for all pregnancy videos babe. I need to hear the real and the raw so I can prepare for my baby. Sending lots of hugs and love to you, stay strong mumma! xx

Wow I started crying when you opened up. I get the mom guilt and the stress. It’s a lot harder than people think until they are in this situation. Love you babe and you’ll get through it eventually ❤️❤️❤️

First second of the video and I’m already in awe. I can’t believe how beautiful he is awwwww

We love an honest Mumma 💓

Your right. Instagram shows a super fake side of motherhood. Probably one of the better videos I've seen. Just real and raw and RELATABLE. Having a baby is hard work. Nothing about it easy.. We just learn to cope better. I just had my 3rd baby on the 28th. Enjoyed this one x

Love it! Raw and real! Seriously motherhood is sooo god dam hard and it’s soo amazing to see someone being honest and sharing their journey of how hard things can be as a mumma! So much support around lovey! What an amazing mum you are!! Xx 😘

I could relate so much to this video. I felt like my life had completely turned upside down when I had my baby Mole. I was getting to the point where I was mourning my old life :( ... But it does get better 100%. I'm 10 months on and its amazing!!!!

there is so much advice being given i know its an overload of info so i wont leave more but i just wanted to let you know little gadgets that helped when bub was in the pram. first one is the rockit. it rocks the pram so you dont have to, it might let you be able to step away and get a drink, the second is a portable/clip on sound machine, i know you use glow dreaming in the room so this lets you take the white noise with you, its about $20 from baby bunting 😊

You’re amazing Skye, mum life is super hard, nothing can ever prepare you for being a new mum, watching this was like watching myself 3 years ago! I was diagnosed with pnd after a while, but I promise u it’s not always hard times! Good days, bad days, it’s healthy to let it out. Keep kicking ass xxxx

Skye keep talking to us beautiful girl! I loved you before but I admire the real ness of this vlog and really appreciate your beautiful heart! You are genuinely trying and doing a bloody great job at being a new Mum!! Keep going ... ah I don’t have all of the words that I want to say to you but honestly Skye xxxxx THANK YOU X sending all the love to you in the world!! You are REALLY GREAT!

Hey mama! I have 2 babies under three and I’ve been breastfeeding for 2.5 years now and breastmilk digests faster than a bottle fed baby so that’s why he is needing to feed more often. Try and keep his sleep routine every 4 hours or so as this will help him have a longer sleep in the long run. When you have awake time have the room super bright and when he goes to sleep try and make the room real dark. Thank you for being so honest with us. As a new mother it’s hard not to take it personally but you are doing your best and it’s just him being a newborn and you getting used him my lovely. Keep your head up and try not to be so hard on yourself beautiful xx

Working in child care I know how hard some babies can be to settle! One baby in particular wouldn’t go to sleep, unless he was in his pram and being rocked on the bump between a flat floor and where the carpet starts. Something about the rhythm must’ve helped, he always ended up asleep! Really hoping this could help forest, don’t think I could function with a baby that never sleeps! 🙏🏼

“Apparently it’s not normal, well it is normal, well I don’t think it is” hahaha you are the best Skye! Doing a phenomenal job lady! 💕

never seen a more real and relatable vlog before in my life. I’ve been there, it’s a mix of sleep deprivation, not knowing wtf the baby wants and trying to “do it all”. Most mums don’t talk about how hard it is, but it is the hardest thing you’ll ever do. You can have the career and all the successes and be a mum, but sometimes not all at once, give yourself time to ease back into work and just focus on bub right now. Don’t worry about us, we understand, give yourself some time to have some actual “maternity leave”. Baby will feel all the energy you put out too, so be kind to yourself, you’re doing the best you can and I promise it does get easier x

I know.. IT was hard for me too at the beggining But IT will GET easier with time.. I would say IT got a lot easier when My son turned 5 months.. take care of your self you Are doing the best that you can.. remember Happy mommy Is the best mommy !! Kisses 😘😍

Literally no 2 babies are the same either, remember that! You just have to try and find out what works for you & Forrest. Remember to try and do things to make yourself feel good again aswell, even if it’s as simple and putting on makeup again. Don’t lose yourself completely, it’ll make you so much sadder. Remember you were always Skye before you were a mum! Forrest needs you to be okay too just as much as he needs to be ok

You’re doing such a great job - I’m not a mum but I can clearly see that you showing this vlog and being so beautifully open and real would be so helpful and reassuring for so many new mums knowing they’re not alone 💗 💗

I love this video! I had my son at 17 and struggled so much to adjust to it all! But all I could see on social media was about how easy and great it is and it made me feel so alone! Nice to finally see someone talking about the real and raw stuff of motherhood!!🌈👶🏼

Omg this made me so sad. I remember these days all too well. My son is now 8 months old and I had the hardest time adjusting to mum-life too. I highly recommend you watch Whitney Port’s KZfaq series “I love my Baby, but...” They honestly saved me! I agree that social media makes you feel like your abnormal when you’re struggling but Whitney’s videos made me realise that I wasn’t alone! Sending you lots of love girl, you’re doing amazing xo

Oh darlin, don’t think your selfish because your crying. I’ve had 3 babies. Cried everytime when they wouldn’t nap or when I needed to poop and felt I couldn’t. Put him in the cot and just let him cry for abit while you walk away and count to 10. Your doing so so good and you should be so proud. ❤️

Love how true and honest you are! More mums need to share this side of motherhood without the judgement, this is as true as it can get

The accuracy of this vlog 🙌🏼😂 just had a baby girl 6 weeks ago..our babies are 5 days apart! I’m so feeling everything you’re saying and I thought it was just me!!! It’s so comforting to hear this from another mom! ❤️ Thank you!!! Lol keep going girl you’ve got this!

I feel as though babies know exactly what’s happening. He knows you’re going to jump at any little noise he makes. It is healthy for them to cry for a little. You need a little break I think ❤️ love you 😍

your doing great muma! if you weren’t doing a good job he wouldn’t be breathing, YOU’VE MADE IT THIS FAR👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

so glad this video exists. 4 weeks in and watching this made me feel as though I'm not alone in parenting. thanks skye ❤

So nice to see someone being so open about how hard it is with a new little baby, I felt exactly like that in the beginning too. You’re doing amazing 🦋🍼☁️💙

I know these feelings all too well. Have you asked your mum, a family member or friend for just a little bit of help. Even for an hour to come over and let you have a shower? I found it took so much to reach out to my mum cause I felt I should be able to do it myself but honestly asking her to watch my newborn (now 3 year old) for a small amount of time was the best thing. Made me feel 100 times better. I promise it gets easier and your bubba will change then you will get things done. Don’t stress it girl you’re doing incredibly. It’s very hard I agree I have 2 boys under 4 and am 15 weeks pregnant. We can do it lovely, just ask for a little help don’t feel ashamed xx

Try a baby carrier hun! The first 6 months are so hard a baby carrier was the only way I got anything done! wait till he’s walking its another level 😂 my 2 year old got up at 3.30 AM, shes still not had a nap and its 4pm... my brain hurts so bad.

Omg Skye you are so beautiful mama. Seeing you cry I just wanted to give you the biggest hug. You’re not selfish at all, and you actually are killing it in even if it doesn’t feel like it. Be very proud of yourself girlfriend x

Girl you got this! I struggled with postnatal depression for 6 months I lost myself completely but as soon as I took care of myself again I started feeling great. Take some time off if you need to & don’t feel guilty. We’ll always be here! Trust me in time it will get better & you’ll love being a mumma❤️❤️
