  • As women we have so many complications with our bodies and don't often know who to talk to. I'm just trying to help have the conversation you can't have with just everyone. I'm so sorry for all of y'all who are suffering because of postpartum complications or miscarriage.

    At the end of July I found out I was pregnant for the first time. Conceived on our anniversary, told my husband the day before his birthday, and then we lost the pregnancy…. I am still very upset about it, but those short days with the baby brought me so much closer to God, and I know it was part of his plan. If you see this please pray for my husband and I that we can have a big family and pray for my baby in heaven. Thank you ❤

    Already tearing up and this video just started!? What a wild and heavy story!! I am so grateful for Cameron making this video. So many women have these grand plans for pregnancy, delivery, and trying to figure out how the heck to raise a newborn….sometimes things don’t go the way we wish…AND it’s okay to allow yourself to grieve!! No shame!! About to give birth to my second any day now! Lord watch over me and all of these beautiful mama’s and babies!!❤❤

    I'm currently struggling through an ectopic pregnancy. I worked through postpartum depression with my first. God bless you for being so open and honest on the feelings and thoughts felt through these times. While I'm devastated, I must admit this moment has allowed be to realize how blessed I am for the child I do have and the life God has blessed me with. It has humbled me to lean into the Lord. I forget to often. Life is a gift and so precious. For all those suffering through pregnancy, miscarriage, postpartum depression, infertility, you are in my prayers. You are not alone. You are loved and a child of God.

      I completely understand what you are going through.
      I was 3 months pregnant when I had my first ectopic pregnancy.
      I was completely devastated...and don't think that word does it justice.
      Then 8 months later I had my second, at 3 weeks....and there are no words that can explain how I felt!
      My heart goes out to you...and I am so sorry!
      Know that God brings good out of everything...even though we may not be able to see what that is in the moment.
      This is a cross for sure....trust in Jesus...He loves you...and He is walking through this with you...
      May God bless you and your family! ⚘️

    Just had my 4th c section a month a a half ago. I was afraid because it had been 15 months since our last child was born and I kept getting scary comments from everyone I would meet. Mostly everyone thought I was crazy for going through with another pregnancy knowing it would end up with a repeat c section. I kept hearing God telling me to not be afraid and to trust in Him. And well here we are. Now people think I’m crazy for not getting my tubes tied and practicing NFP. Thankfully God’s soft voice telling me to trust Him is louder than everyone else. Thank you for your being vulnerable and allowing providing the space for this sort of conversation. God Bless! ❤

    Oh. My. Word….😢 This is SO close to home your story 💔💔 I’m in tears. Thank you for sharing. This brought back so many traumatic emotions for me in my birthing story… I hear you so, so, so much. 😢 So needed to hear this…💔 No one understands this stigma unless they have been through it…. THIS. was. ME. 😭 Yes, I didn’t have the birth I really wanted, strapped to a table, put in a position of vulnerability, epidural in me, groggy, crying, baby taken away into an incubator immediately because of low oxygen…it was a nightmare. They also found by sheer accident, in putting me together, a large softball size fibroid on my left ovary, that we found has been causing such debilitating pain for years… My husband was torn to leave me, I begged him to go with our baby who needs mama but she can’t hold her at all….I so wanted to hold her & they wouldn’t let me till nine hours later into the evening. 💔 I still mourn through what was “stolen” from me to bond with her… After miscarriage after miscarriage, this hurts so much… I feel for you 💔😢Thank you for sharing your story & being transparent with us… Holding you in my prayers… x

    I had 2 years of severe, undiagnosed, untreated post-partum depression after my 4th. My husband was sent away for work during the pregnancy and the pregnancy was very difficult. I,was the most sick and exhausted I had ever been, but I still had 3 very young children, 2 in diapers, to care for. Then, I had preterm labor and was told to go on bedrest, but I told the doctors I couldn't because I had 3 children to care for by myself. My son came a month early, easy natural birth, but my doctor lied to me and abused me during the labor, and my last hope of support, my nurse, just stood there and watched. I guess my OB and ended up birthing my premature son by myself while the 2nd OB yelled at me not to push and the nurse just stood there.
    24 hours later I begged to leave the hospital. I was so lonely. Hubby didn't have parental leave. No one came to visit me or call. So, by the grace of God my son was doing well enough to come home 24 hours after his premature birth.
    Very soon after his birth, my husband fell very I'll and ended up in intensive care. He was out of work for months. We had no income, we were denied food stamps, and we had 3 in diapers and 4 little mouths to feed. I was caregiving my incapacitated husband and a preschooler, two toddlers in diapers, and a premature newborn on zero income....and then my babynwas failure to thrive and had pneumonia and croup at the same time!
    When my husband did go back to work, he was sent away again. During all this time things got harder and harder for me. I didn't realize I had severe PPD. I just functioned. I had several nervous breakdowns. Once I left the house and drove all the way to my parents without the baby! He was home in the carseat. And no one, NO ONE thought, "hey, she REALLY needs help." It was either, "how could you," or teasing for being such a dumb mother.
    Finally, my husband was transferred a little closer to home, but still far away enough that he couldn't be home. He stayed with a Christian family and shared that something was wrong with me and he didn't know what or what to do. They invited me and the kids to visit, and that's when I discovered I had PPD.
    Well, I couldn't get it treated because my homeschool community told me if I have a mental health diagnosis on my medical chart CPS will come and take my children away. That scared me into just suffering.
    Thankfully, it went away, but it left its mark. It's been 10 years and I still deal with auto immune troubles because of the trauma of it. I had PTSD for years afterwards. The slightest startle or stress would be like a massive trauma to my body and mind. To this day people still think I'm "being dramatic" or "joining the victim culture." It's nice to come here and be validated.

      You are NOT victim culture, your story should be a book to help others. I’m sure in another 10 years you may get over all the trauma but I bet you are still healing. I am going to pray for you but also please know your story was hard to read. Your story really touched me. I am sorry you had to carry such a hard cross, much love…

    Listen, I went through post partum not knowing what it was. No support at all only prayer (half assed tbh) sorry the language. My husband was just all the time asking when I would stop moping around. How could I not be happy with a newborn a year after marriage???it took a lot of self torture, like just forcing myself to go out and walk or out shopping etc. what helped reach the summit was speaking with others moms and taking time out from them so they could talk about their experiences. I never told my mother and my husband only knew after the big ordeal and I would go through recessions? I also have done 40 days of bread and water for the past 2 lents and confession 🎉🎉🎉. I do see a tendency to fall under for me but I’ve come to understand and accept that the battle starts over every single day ❤

    I wish I had heard this years ago. When I was going through PPD, there was no one in the Catholic world talking about it and I think that's detrimental to catholic mothers especially whom are open to life.

    Had 2 c-sections, the first one due to very big baby, and the second one I felt sooo sure I could do a vbac but it wasn't God's will and I am still so disappointed. Mainly because my husband and I would love to have a lot of children and it's riskier with c-sections. I feel ungrateful because I have two wonderful kids, they are thriving, my husband and I are so happy but there's a part of me that feels so sad that we now have to "calculate" when and how many kids to have.
    Also, I struggled with bonding with my first one, had baby blues and thought that something was wrong with me, so, to anyone who's going through something similar, I want to say that that is all normal.
    Thank you for talking about this and of course praise be to God for every child born and unborn and for all the families ❤

    Alternatively, I feel like I have survivors guilt with still having my fertility. Only woman on both my side and husbands side (among sisters and sisters in law) that can have a baby. I feel for the moms that have lost babies. But some of us feel guilt for being healthy knowing others have mourned. I have health issues and feel guilty avoiding pregnancy when I can have babies. There’s pressure that I’m the only one that can give the grandparents another grand baby. And it’s hard seeing all the other moms move on out of the baby/little kid stage and being stuck there never knowing what the future holds. A little bit of a temptation to be jealous they can be done with that stage- especially when I have teens and babies at the same time. Or feeling guilty when I struggle with the stress of parenting when others would kill to be in my position.
    I very much feel our “independent” society hurts mothers. Too much responsibility, not enough help. It’s so hard being alone raising your kids.

    I had pregnancy depression during my third pregnancy. Did labwork and was deficient in iron. Started a quality liquid iron supplement and it went away completely. Wish I had known earlier in the pregnancy.

    That sounds like negligence with your first child. 43 weeks is ridiculous and far too long. I wouldn't recommend anyone having babies in hospitals especially in Ireland.

      No it's not. It's just the woman's and baby's bodies and hormones. One of my good friends went 42-43 weeks with each one.
