Exactly how often do you Americans visit your prenatal care provider? Because I literally only went in once a month up until the end where it became every two weeks and finally once a week as my due date drew near. So I fail to see how one cannot get “consistent prenatal care on the road”. You already know when your appt is and you come back for it. Easy for a normal person I would think.

They weren't just travelling a few hours from home though. The first trip was supposed to be across the states, it wouldn't have been feasible to come back once a month to a home base. That was the issue.

Exactly. I only went once a month to start with too, but they were traveling across the country. She didn't even have a provider. They were way far away from any kind of home base. And they went to stay in some family member's beach condo before moving to Portland before June was born. I mean, obviously June turned out ok, but switching doctors mid-pregnancy isn't exactly recommended.

Could they be moving back into that beach house for the winter? I would think they could rent it from Corbin's relatives fairly cheap as the Oregon Coast is freezing and rainy all winter, so no tourists will be around to rent it. I really can't see them RVing all winter or living with Corbin's parents.

The clickbait is just beyond stupid. I thought they were a travel/adventure channel...not a baby clickbait channel.

They are grasping at straws. Some people are talented at editing vlogs abs understand their audience, most are mediocre but have a loyal following, then there is these guys who are neither talented nor consistent. They need to figure out their brand and put serious effort it or just get out now and spare themselves and their children.

These breastfeeding videos are not performing well, even worse than their regular videos which were already struggling. Wow.

They really do vlog the most boring parts of their day. I wanted them to explain more about the Navajo tacos, but they just ended the vlog without even closing it out. I do like when they show the scenery, but I wish they'd give more details and not just rely on B-roll with music over it. That's the EASIEST way to vlog EVER! The quality of the vlogs is really terrible now that they are on the road.

This is a great opportunity for them to share facts and information and give travel recommendations/advice, but they are just so lazy. I feel like they film 10 minutes TOPS and Corbin just uses whatever he has. They really don't need to be secretive about where they are when they are so far behind in posting vlogs. They are also in the middle of nowhere.

I've discovered new travel vloggers I really like if you are interested in REAL travel vloggers:

These are the people who conceived their first while they were living in a van with no home base/primary provider, no full-time employment and no prenatal health coverage. So I can’t say I’m shocked that they think they’re in a great position to try for baby #2, but the depths of their denial and irresponsibility somehow never cease to amaze me.

I think at this point his parents are full-on enabling his delusions of YouTube grandeur by letting them live in their RV. Imagine if his parents put their foot down, and said they could move in, get jobs, and save for a place of their own? I think if Kelsey and Corbin had to live in his parent’s home in Idaho, they would finally realize the position they are in. Right now, the RV is their buffer and is giving them the illusion that they have their independence, their own space and they can support a second child. I know that his parents run the risk of Corbin cutting them out once again, but without his parents support and without the Lanning’s support, does he really have any enablers left?

I have a family member who reminds me quite a bit of Corbin, expect he’s a narcissist who had the good sense not to get married and start a family. If Corbin is anything like my family member, he will continue to manipulate and mooch off whomever he can, but I don’t think Corbin has the charisma or surface level likability of most high functioning narcissists. They’re usually very good at making friends and then milking those friends for everything they’re worth. Corbin isn’t quite so crafty with how he uses people (his parents are obviously easy targets of manipulation) so he burns bridges fast.

They are no travelers. They are just two morons STILL trying to make a living on Youtube by faking it while thinking they are smarter than the viewers....

I suspect they are already back home to Emmett, ID, editing their two week trip in a way to fool us into believing that they are living in the RV fulltime. Their first Lake Powell Houseboat (a timeshare) video in 2016 was posted on Sept, 28, and they were supposeingly two weeks behind.

Did anyone else get the impression that they were “not trying, not preventing” and doing some sort of half-assed fertility awareness method throughout their relationship? And they’re both kind of scratching their heads and wondering why they never conceived during that time until they finally did get pregnant with June. I think they’re worried that they’re going to have to try for a while and that’s part of the haste to get the IUD out and start actively trying, despite their financial and living situation. Corbin asked, “Did it take us years to get pregnant?” Someone well versed in tracking their fertility isn't going to question it like that? Or ask their husband if he even knows how it works?

I wonder if they really are saving any money on this “road trip” thanks to Corbin’s parents letting them use the RV. I sort of got the impression Corbin’s parents were offering them a little bit towards a down payment, but nothing that would get them the kind of house that Corbin has in his mind. So this road trip was an attempt to save a significant amount of money rather quickly. Didn’t Kelsey say that she wanted to buy a house before baby #2? I wonder if that didn’t pan out and now she’s given up on the idea.

I find it funny that she thinks that there’s somehow a “wait period” after going off the pill versus having a copper IUD removed. I get that a copper IUD works by killing sperm and preventing implantation, whereas the pill works by preventing ovulation, but in my experience your cycle comes back rather quickly after going off the pill- like, ovulation within two weeks or so, which is the average length of the follicular phase in a normal cycle. Fertility usually returns to normal (whatever your “normal” cycle is) immediately after you remove the IUD or you complete a pack of birth control pills. I know that this varies from person to person, but I get the impression that yet again these two don't know what they're talking about.

“We don’t know if it took us years to have June or not”. Except it DIDNT! Because Kelsey straight up said they were preventing during that time. Stop acting like you’re struggling with infertility Corbin because as of right now you’re NOT!

I feel like my spouse insisting we live in a van like homeless people during the fall and winter, constantly travelling and being super underprepared with a baby because they refused to get a job would be enough for me to leave them. And that's without even touching Corbin's personality or how weirdly possessive he is with June. Am I alone in this? Kelsey seems like she lowkey hates her life right now.

Corbin is still heavily censoring comments. He won't post anything that is not praise. Such a twat

I think Kelsey is likely just as irresponsible as Corbin, she must be to marry him and co-sign this lunacy. She likely thinks this homeless lifestyle is “alternative” and “romantic.” I wonder if they have some sort of agreement that once she’s pregnant with the next baby something is supposed to change. But they were rushing to get settled before June arrived, you would think she would understand what it’s like to be pregnant and to be taking care of a newborn. Now add chasing after a toddler. If their views are this low while traveling, imagine how boring they’ll be when they’re living in Idaho. They clearly think that a second pregnancy is going to bring their numbers back up to what they had when Bryan and Missy were actively promoting them.

Back in 2016 she said that she had “a natural means” of birth control. I personally wouldn’t refer to condoms as “natural” exactly, which makes me think that they were using some sort of fertility awareness? Maybe she meant “non-hormonal” and they were using a barrier method. The word choice just seemed to indicate fertility awareness. But I also don’t see them being smart about it, and apparently in their most recent video Kelsey questioned Corbin about whether he even knows how “it” works, which I took to mean ovulation and conception. A couple that’s using fertility awareness knows that kind of stuff. So that’s why I hypothesized that they were not doing much of anything to prevent and are sort of questioning if they should be concerned over the fact that it took 4+ years for them to get pregnant. Maybe Kelsey was religiously taking her temperature and charting and checking all that stuff to actively prevent, but from what we’ve seen I kind of doubt it.

I sure hope he’s not goi g to get on the infertility bandwagon to get views. That’s not something to even joke about. I think last time they were surprised how quickly she got pregnant with June.

Kelsey’s as much of an idiot as he is. She made this whole big deal about wanting to have a house before the next baby. Now she’s going to be content being in an RV with a toddler and new baby plus an aging dog. Oh, also driving a car. Have they even thought aBout this? I don’t think he listens to anything their parents say.

I really, really hate these two. They should be embarrassed that this is how their live their lives. They are homeless and make fake videos to barely get by. At what point do they stop and realize how much time they are wasting on YT??

It honestly makes me SICK that they are relying on a second pregnancy and baby JUST for the views for income. They've already started relying in it with all the stupid clickbait. People like this are what is WRONG with YT these days.

I really don't think Kelsey is being honest about wanting this baby at all. I agree that maybe Corbin promised her a different lifestyle if she has #2, but with what money? Maybe he promised to get a job??

They already seem to struggle with just one kid, so add in another?? Yep, that makes sense. It's also so sad that Corbin just seems to expect #2 will be a boy. When people say crap like that I automatically hope they get the opposite! LOL

I hope they wait another year or even two.
