my fourth trimester experience | first time mum of twins | part 1, maybe? | Twin Mum UK

EDITOR'S NOTE: I hope that sharing my experience online can help if you're in the same or similar situation for me. Your experience matters and you are valid. If you had a difficult fourth trimester or post partum period, please know there is help out there to guide you in any recovery that you need. Also, my choice in this style of video is because it's easier for me to record the audio, edit it together so it sounds like cohesive sentences by removing the long breaks and 'ums' that I normally use, and put it to a montage of timelapse cleaning than doing a full sit down video. I tend to get bored of those anyway and I actually enjoy a good ramble to non related visuals. It's very popular in the youtube gaming world so I thought it could work for cleaning too! Here are some links that I hope you find useful based off the topics I talked about in today's video. Topics covered: Newborn jaundice - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/jaundic...

Making videos like this is a bit of a creative outlet for me as I am on maternity leave until early 2024. Everything I put online will be focussed on me and my experiences. I will not show my children or partner online. Makeup insta -   / zoemilesmakeup   Sound Effect by Aleksandr Karabanov from Pixabay
