Hello super mom, you are amazing , so happy for you🤩❤️

I looove your wall decoration! :)

girl! You’re taking me back to those sweet swaddling days with my kiddos. They are 5 and 4 now! My husband and I are both completely blind, so I totally get why you’re loving those velcro swaddles! I can try to break down the classic swaddle for you like the hospital taught us, just in case you ever want to give it a try! Imagine this: You’ve got a soft, cozy blanket-let’s say it’s a cute pink one-laid out in front of you like a diamond. Start by folding down the corner that’s farthest from you, about a quarter of the way, so it’s pointing right at you. That top edge is nice and straight! Now, gently lay your little one right on that blanket, with the folded part snug under the top of her neck. Next up, grab the bottom corner-the one closest to you-and fold it up over those adorable little legs. Just leave a bit of room for those tiny kicks! Now, make sure her right arm is tucked in snug against her side. Take that right corner of the blanket and fold it over her body, making sure to tuck it over her left arm too, which should also be cozily tucked in. Finally, grab the left corner and wrap it around her body, covering the right side you just tucked in. Give it a nice snug tuck under her back, and BAM! You’ve got yourself a perfectly swaddled baby! Hopefully that all makes sense lol. Keep rocking this mom thing! 💖

They seem very descriptive for someone else. Good to see you’re doing well look beautiful as always

I am also Suffering from Retinitis Pigmentosa dear😢

Nice to know about you and care of your baby❤God bless you all

Those were great instructions. I'm so glad that your new addition to the family is doing very well!

We also gave up on the traditional swaddle as our little monster was a Houdini and kept escaping! The Velcro options are fantastic!

Please support me please you can listen my all the Retinitis Pigmentosa my own story video

I also share my stories on my own RUclips channel like you dear I am also suffering from Retinitis Pigmentosa

But did the gross stuff smell?

I have a question how do you use your cane?

The video is helpful thank you ❤

Thanks so much for sharing. Your hair looks so healthy and vibrant! I love the shade of color!

I went blind a few years ago, but due to my living situation at the time I wasn't able to take advantage of Rehabilitation until recently. I recently got in touch with my local Bureau of services for blind persons, and they sent me a braille card with the alphabet on it in the mail. And this video makes it easier to follow the cells on the card. Thank you very much.

I just got diagnosed with RP and I’m scared. I found your on here and have been watching your videos. Thank you

Way to go, superhero Cayla!

Did you or are you dealing with any postpartum?

Congratulations !!

Even though I’m sighted, I had a similar experience as you when they put my girl on my chest. I mostly remember the ‘fishy’ feeling. 😅 I needed MONTHS to be able to bond with her. And since we know her exact condition, I was able to close that chapter of my life and now we are best buddies. ❤

I am so proud of you that you were not anxious and you tolerated the pain, for me every time I give birth I get super anxious although I have experienced it before so well done brave mommy, you are the best❤❤❤ Also my first time giving birth I was as exhausted as you can describe and I couldn't feel the magic of the moment too, it's natural, we love them more every day that goes by, that's the important thing💓💓

Best wishes to you and your family

Now you are rising a baby please tell me you day by day live is like. What is the hardest part of being blind mom.

Nice

Congratulations again to you and Ethan on the arrival of your beautiful daughter. 💕🩷

Sounds like you've got a great husband there! So glad he was there for you when you needed some help and needed time to recover.

Me: not a blind mom, nor do I ever plan on being a blind mom, because I'm a guy also me: watches the entire video start to finish

Thank you for your openness. Your story brought me back to when I had my first baby 24 years ago ❤️. My blindness has given me two kids who are kind, patient, non judgmental, and helpful ❤️. Enjoy your little one; they do grow up way too fast. ❤

Amen 🩷 Amen 🩷 Amen 💞 Love you and love this video! Thank you for normalizing the difficulty in bonding after baby is born. Thank you for sharing the good and the bad. Thank you for speaking on so many aspects of childbirth. Unfortunately, I didn’t do enough research and was very blindsided. No pun intended, by a lot that happened to me. Awesome suggestions to really know and trust your OB and to hire a Doula if possible. Even with the greatest of husbands, it is hard for them to be husband, father to be, and advocate at the same time. If we are blessed with another, I will definitely have a Doula and make sure my OB is much more trustworthy. You spoke on so many great points! Thank you again for sharing your story! 🩷 Looking forward to future episodes! You are amazing momma!

This is actually a nice video idea to do. I think that's one of the biggest questions we get on blind reddit is what should I get this blind person.

I definitely relate to all of this. Especially about taking photos. Not only just being blind. My eyes also face different directions. So I hear what are you looking at quite a bit. But the part about conversations is so true and sometimes I just kind of feel like why even bother. Especially at like family get togethers. They all love to move the conversations to different rooms or outside. So I'm just like guess I'll just quietly sit here.

So I don't even know where to start. I did bot hace support fron other blind or l9w vision people growing up. I was trying to fit in with everyone. And when it can to performing tasks. I figured shit out. But socially. Like I knew it was bad. But I only found out a year ago just how excluded I was from things in high school. Internalizing. Absolutely. Because I have never had a woman reject me for sondkbe else with Amy kind of disability. Much less a vision one. The new bd might snack her around. But he can drive. Standards. Intellectually, I know there are more variables at play. I'm insecure, for example. But that's because of my vision. And rejected. Other thabggaf. Like I know k z a good man. In terms quality and moral JFT. I do love ngzslf. I just believe no one else does. And everyone kicks the can. Oh the rughf lddzl. Not me, never me, will come aming. I wabfk ve positive. But I ddlng want to lose I need help. The love of my life pulled away from me. After manjbg me feel line I aas lived for who j ass fo first go w. And when sge did. I got really insecure. And hegged. And idk how to fix it. Please help. Email

I must say as a visually impaired man working out doing things. I imagine they be like if visually impaired man can do these things he does then what’s stopping a with eyesight from doing these things? If I make off things I can do as a visually impaired man this comment will be long I’ll say visually impaired folks aren’t sitting around waiting on a death angel nope they enjoying life God blessed them with. Btw I been your subscriber 5 years hard too believe.

What college did you go to

I loved this video so much!!! I have my bachelors degree in teaching and I’m currently working in the education field. However, I have been deeply considering a shift into clinical mental health counseling. It is refreshing to hear your experience with this and hope that you will make more videos about your experience as a blind therapist. Thank you again so much for this video. I would love to connect off the app to pick your brain if you are willing.

Congrats to your new baby

Congratulations to you and Ethan . All the very best in your parenting God bless Lyla

So sweet baby

Congratulations! So happy for you!

Welcome and huge congrats! You both are lovely. :) Take it easy, full recovery takes around 9 months, let your abdominal muscles heal completely. Crazy to see a sighted baby (in hindsight, your baby girl acts sooo differently, normal eye movement and all), as you remember, I'm the mom of the suspected LCA toddler. :D

Lovee! ❤️❤️❤️

So I'm not visually impaired (beyond what glasses can correct), however, my mum & I are both somewhat face-blind (her more strongly than me), & rely heavily on context to place people. Totally feel you on the "how do I ask who you are, when you clearly know me, without seeming rude" when people randomly approach us! (I usually just go the overly-polite British route, have the conversation, & try & figure out who they are during/after! My mum usually says something like: "I'm sorry, but I'm really bad with names/faces, can you remind me". Most people are happy to do so, but it doesn't really stop it feeling embarassing, awkward & frustrating.) I have an awkward-funny story of one time I thought I was the one being face-blind, but it was actually the other person's mistake: So one time at church a lady came up to me & started talking. I didn't have a clue who she was - worse than usual - but she seemed so certain she knew me, that I just talked to her. I realised afterwards (thanks to a comment she made about my glasses) that I'm 99% sure she mistook me for my sister (we look fairly similar, & at the time people kept mistaking us for twins). I never saw her again after, so I've no idea how she felt about it, but I felt incredibly awkward the whole time for "not recognising her"!

Congratulations

Awe, congratulations! I love her name! She sounds adorable

I am so so happy for you! I bet you’re a great mom, and your daughter is absolutely precious! Babies bring so much joy! As a fellow blind woman, i’m interested in learning how you handle bathing and diaper changes. What about dressing your baby? I know babies can be really squirmy when you’re trying to get them into clothes. Appologies for the longwinded comment, but i am really interested in learning about how blind moms handle parenting.

Congratulations!

Congratulations!!!! 🤗🥰

Wow, so helpful ❤

AWESOME VIDEO CAYLA 💜💜💜💞💞💞💯💯💯👍👍👍👏👏👏
