Before it kind of came naturally...I genuinely enjoyed watching their older videos and binged a bunch at a time. Years later- it's so hard to get through one. They are so un-relatable, self absorbed, and just get everything they want.Pency wrote:It’s so weird to look back and when she became pregnant with Calvin. She was so genuinely surprised and happy. The reaction to this pregnancy has been more like relief. I really think they feel they needed this pregnancy to save their channel. I know they have tons of minions, but they are nowhere near where they once were.
I truly hope they have gotten Cal evaluated. My daughter was born a week before him and she communicates as a little person. Every night before bed she will say "mommy! I want to tell you something!" Then will tell me "I played with.. (and names 5 kids in her class)" or "santa is coming to our house and will give her presents." If my older one (who is a bit older than Jackson) asks her a question, she will respond without missing a beat. It is SO weird to watch knowing Cal is her age because she communicates just as well as my older one but on a simpler level.calliepaige84 wrote:Whoa, 3???? I always forget this.

The constant "look at my baby bump" moments are driving me batty. We get it, you have a tiny baby bump. We do not care.dreamingangel210 wrote:I just got on here to comment how her obsession with her bump is driving me out of my mind. I think she is trying to fuel the fire to fuel to views to fuel their money to fuel the new vacation home for sure!!polly9033 wrote:I think they see this pregnancy and new baby as a cash cow. Their last pregnancy and baby got them a big, brand new house and they cashed in on it. Usually parents work to financially support their kids, but for Ellie and Jared and other YouTubers, the pregnancies, babies and kids are utilized to financially support the parents. Sad!PookPook0307 wrote:She's really, REALLY obsessed with this pregnancy. Its really uncomfortable to watch. I wonder if she will be as obsessed with the baby when he is here and isn't the perfect little doll like she got Calvin. It worries me that they don't see their kids as little humans with their own thoughts and opinions.
I used to like her a lot and now all the baby baby baby stuff feels like such a ploy. I get it she is happy, holy cow lady!
I am amused.
I wouldn't say they missed the soul searching (Read: humbling) lesson, more that it's been put on hold until YouTube ends. At least for Jared. I don't think Ellie would know humble if it jumped out and bit her bony ass, such is the nature of a narcissist.onbreak wrote:The e+j show is staged/scripted
When jeana and jessie)broke up and mentioned the relationship turned "doing it for the yt channels" and now everything is for the vlog there's nothing genuine, I felt like these two would come out saying the same thing, but they had that ice palace to perfect and missed that soul searching lesson put out into the universe
I agree! I cried more about my first 'rainbow baby' than I did about the labour pains of my second 'rainbow baby'. I was the opposite of Ellie in that I was obsessed with my kid. I had several losses and thought shed be our only child. I was worried about the transition from 1 to 2 and spent so much time with my oldest [living] child and when labour began for our youngest I was a mess thinking my one on one time with the first one is done. But also because of my losses I was nervous/worried about the pregnancy, just coped with that anxiety by putting all my time and effort into my older kid. Its two extremes here, but Ellie should just cherish the time she has with her two older kids. She is definitely milking it for the cash, maybe for her own sanity, maybe its a coping mechanism for her eating disorder, who knows.YouTubeIdiots101 wrote:Although I don't need to explain myself because most of you seem to agree- but it's not that pregnancy shouldn't be appreciated and celebrated. It should! It's special! But it's SO unhealthy how Ellie is around the subject. I can't even begin to describe it. She's not celebrating the baby- she's celebrating for her own selfish reasons. She needs to compete with her sisters and everyone around her, and have to have everything she wants. Don't forget, this is the only time she actually eats. She doesn't really care about the baby- look how she is towards Jackson.
You completely described my experience as well. As anxious as I was about my oregnancy, my oldest child was my priority and we obsessed over making the most of our last days with him as an only child, and preparing him for his world to change. Ellie doesn’t even seem to care about that because Jackson will be forced to want the baby.amyfalafal wrote:I agree!

Love sent to you and your beautiful family. 
I know this isn’t a competition and I don’t want to be like Joan and her pain Olympics with who has it worse lol I am so grateful for my job and pregnancy, I never complain or talk about being pregnant....like ever- except when I bitch on this forum after watching Ellie’s insta stories 
seriously my coworkers are still slowly finding out I’m expecting because I literally never talk about it and I don’t like attention...scrubs and lab coats hide the bump
