To take his Instagram during the past week, Help! I Demolished My House And Hidden Potential Star introduced her followers to baby Darla He was born prematurely on September 7. Roth said before People The birth was a “terrible” experience because she and her husband, Brett, had been out to dinner when her contractions started and were stuck in traffic on the way to the hospital.

Now the family is home and getting back into the swing of things. In an Oct. 28 post, Roth shared a series of photos of the newborn alongside her other daughter, Hazel, and her husband.

“Maternity Leave: Part 1,” Roth wrote. “We brought Darla home from the hospital 15 days later. Spring! Hazel stayed with her grandmother and uncle and visited us every day, but it was still really hard being away.”

“And when I say we went ‘home,’ we actually went to an Airbnb because our house in Utah wasn’t finished yet and Darla came a month early so we didn’t have a chance to move in. I’m not complaining, though! Home is where your people are,” he continued.

Roth said Hazel “is the best big sister” and “Darla loves her attention.” She also provided a health update explaining why Darla had a feeding tube.

“If you’re like me, this is new territory for me because I’ve never had a premature baby before. “It’s basically a tube that runs from his nose to his stomach,” he shared. “The milk (see photo 13 for source!) goes through the tube and directly into his stomach. “Because Darla was born so small, it took her a while to get strong enough to eat a whole meal.”

She continued: “The hospital staff trained us and when he eats from the bottle/nurse, each feeding takes about 45 minutes and then we slowly feed him through the tube. It’s a slow and time consuming process…good thing it’s sweet!”

Roth later shared a video of Darla’s feeding tube being removed on October 31. In the caption, she wrote about her experiences with premature birth.

“This may sound strange, but it took me a few days in the hospital to even realize I had a ‘premature’ baby,” she said. “Obviously I knew Darla was born a month early and was in the ICN (low-level NICU), but it actually took a while to figure it out. It’s crazy but as a mom you see perfection and you don’t even realize it. tubes, sensors and equipment. “It hadn’t really occurred to me that he was a ‘preemie’ and when I realized that, I remember a feeling of dread came over me.”

She added: “The day she took her tubes out might not seem like such a big deal, and I apologize for the disgusting video, but as a preemie mom (a title I now proudly wear) this day was everything. Tears of joy, lots of smiles and up to this point little My gratitude to all the doctors and nurses who took such good care of our daughter! Our focus now is on growing and feeding her (without a tube) and we are so excited.”

In another post, Roth shared photos of extended family visiting baby Darla, writing: “I don’t always share photos of extended family, but these days are special and I want to remember them.”

He also shared photos from a family photo shoot in the forest. “Was it ambitious to take a 3-week-old baby to the forest for a photo? I am sure! But was it also really nice to have an excuse to shower and wear “real” clothes? Yes and yes,” he joked in the caption.
