Steph Claire Smith shares eye-opening data that shows the harsh reality of having a three-week old newborn and a toddler: ‘Semi-terrifying’

Steph Claire Smith has revealed the harsh reality of having a three-week-old baby. 

31-year-old co-founder of KIC, who recently had her second child in late May, posted on Instagram about the genuine experience of navigating through the nights with a newborn.

She titled the initial image as ‘An authentic, timely night scene featuring my 3-week-old child, Billie, and my 4-year-old,’ which depicted her cradling Billie whilst clad in her nightwear.

The second slide then revealed just how difficult juggling two children under five can really be. 

In her Notes app, Steph jotted down a chronology of her night with the children, where she woke up on several occasions to tend to her baby’s feeding and comfort her son, Harvey.

In the span from 8:30 pm to 8:30 am, this mother of two fed her newborn five times, occasionally waking up at 5:20 am to offer a comforting cuddle to her four-year-old who requested one.

In the caption, Steph mentioned she found inspiration from fellow moms who had shared their nights with their infants, particularly their frequent wake-ups, and expressed admiration for their ability to capture those moments on video.

She confessed that she intended to show a typical evening for them currently, but lacked both the ability and drive to record it (laughs), so she jotted down the details instead.

Later, Steph shared that her fellow KIC co-founder, Laura Henshaw (who announced her pregnancy in June), commended her honest post but also highlighted how ‘scary’ it was.

Yesterday, Laurs reached out to me with a message and shared a single video that she found incredibly enlightening, yet somewhat unsettling given her current pregnancy. It’s easy to understand why the video might have had such an effect on her.

She pointed out that some evenings can be particularly challenging, while others may have more resources at their disposal. Some individuals might find themselves supplementing regular feeds with bottle-feeding or expression, whereas others do not. Therefore, it’s crucial to avoid making comparisons and questioning one another in regards to this shared experience.

As an over-the-moon admirer, I’d like to share a personal revelation from the social media sensation: navigating parenthood for the first time with a newborn proved to be quite a challenge, but this time around, it felt like a breeze.

As an overjoyed parent, let me tell you, nothing compares to the transformation from a 0-1 baby – it’s beyond comparison, even surpassing the change from a 1-2 year old. From personal experience, I can attest that this transition is truly extraordinary!

On evenings such as this, if you don’t have children, you might wonder how on earth you will manage. Let me tell you, you simply find a way.” This version preserves the original sentiment but uses more polite and family-friendly language.

She noted: ‘Having greater assistance from a partner or family members during the day for breaks will contribute positively to your wellbeing.’

In May, Steph and her spouse, Josh Miller, were overjoyed as they welcomed their second little one. They shared this thrilling update on Instagram.

‘She’s here,’ wrote Steph.

On Wednesday, Billie Claire Miller officially became a part of our family, and we can’t help but feel a deep affection for her. We can hardly wait to introduce her to her older brother at home.

In addition to a charming description, the fellow host of KICPOD shared a collection of monochrome images as a tribute to the significant event.

One image saw Steph cuddling the bub as she breastfed.

Instead, we can say that she and Josh were thoroughly affectionate towards their little treasure, whom they clothed in a cute onesie and a tiny white cap.

In the last frame, Steph was holding her daughter close to her, with a warm smile on her face, looking up towards the camera.
