...........................................................................
I was hit head on by a drunk driver when I was 7 months pregnant with my daughter. It was the day after Christmas and we were going to see my parents. We were traveling on the highway when a car crossed the center lane and slammed into us head on. My husband was driving, I was in the passenger's seat, and my puppy was in the back. My side of the car was crushed in on top of me. If it wasn't for my husband's quick reaction and turning the wheel slightly the second before they hit us, we would have been dead on impact. I remember it all. The smell of the airbags, the taste of blood in my mouth, the pain in my legs, ribs, neck, and back, and the sheer terror when I realized I couldn't feel my little girl moving anymore. The car was almost in flames, but my side was so crushed that the door wouldn't open. My husband ripped my seatbelt with his bare hands, and pulled me out of the shattered window..we think it was one of those "superhuman" moments fueled by adrenaline, because he shouldn't have been able to tear a seat belt like a piece of paper. I lied in the snow on the side of the road, waiting for the ambulance, and I remember a nurse running out of her car to help. She thought i couldn't hear anything because of the bad shape i was in, and she whispered to her husband that there is no way that baby is alive. I just remember screaming that i was pregnant, and making my husband leave me there to chase after my terrified dog who darted from the car through fields (he ended up being ok, another miracle).
Long story short, the doctors were also sure that the placenta had to have detached because of the impact and my injuries. But when they did the ultrasound, they asked me if I believed in God. I said yes, and he explained that it was a miracle, but my daughter was fine. Nothing happened to her at all.
She is now 7 years old and in second grade. She suffered no injuries at all. She is a healthy, smart 7 year old and a gifted gymnast. I still suffer from PTSD and nerve damage in my neck and back, the broken bones in my legs and ribs have long since healed. The emotional trauma is the worst to me by far. But I give ALL the glory to God. He gave us our lives, and my little girl a chance to live. I empathize with you and what you went through. You're strong mama, never forget that.💕
❤️ God bless you and your daughter she is a miracle from above.
🙌🏼🙏🏼👼🏻💜

Someone once told me that babies in the womb are like eggs in a shell, no matter how hard you try to shake it, the yolk won’t break. Your story reminded me of that and I’m so glad that your baby girl is ok and that you are all safe
God is good 💗
I live in that neighborhood and I remember this happening. I never found out what happened after the fact, all I knew is that a woman passed out and ran into the wall and was early in pregnancy. I remember seeing the wall and just how damaged it was, getting sick to my stomach. And still to this day as I drive by it every day lt always saddened me not knowing what happened if either passed away. Then this video gets recommended to me and I click on it and realize this is it. I’m so glad to hear you both made it!
Oh my goodness, Lexie! That is crazy! What a small world! It touches my heart so deeply that you would think of us. I'm so grateful for that type of love. You're such a wonderful, caring person.
what town did this happen in??
Thank GOD THAT YOU AND BABY MADE IT THROUGH SAFELY IN JESUS NAME I PRAY AMEN!!
@@barbmanley3114 probably not a good idea for them to put an address to where it happened
@@neadmc29 she means should’ve been and could’ve been fatal
@@KariLynn15382 yes
I feel your pain. It's like I'm watching someone tell me my own story. The only differences really were a drunk driver hit me head on going 90 miles per hour and I flipped 3 times. I was 24 weeks pregnant. That was 16 years ago and my son is now a happy, healthy 16 year old. I was blessed!
That is absolutely insane. That’s truly WILD. Amazing hearing your son is happy and healthy. I can’t imagine what you’ve been through!
Oh my gosh! That sounds horrifying! I’m so glad you both made it
God bless you and your son.
that is so scary so glad you and your son are okay 🤍
Wow that's incredible!
March 2021 I miscarried with my first ever pregnancy, just to find out I was pregnant again 7 weeks later (I was 6 weeks along), so I didn't get much time to recover emotionally. July 23rd 2021, at 19 weeks with my second pregnancy, I was driving and a man who failed to yield a left turn hit me at an intersection (almost head on) and sent me off the road. All I could think of was how I didn't want to lose another baby. That day at the ER, they checked baby just to find out he was not only okay, but he was a he! I'm 28 weeks pregnant now with my healthy baby boy, excited to meet him and tell him what he survived.
Praying for you, your husband, and Beckham.
I pray you have a healthy child at fullterm ❤
I pray you carry that healthy baby boy full term 🥰
I really hope you and your baby are okay. I’m gonna think about you two and hope for some updates. Sending tons of love to both of you, sweetie 🫂🖤 and a lot of strenght to your little baby boy as well. 🫶🏻
My grandson was born at 25 weeks, 1lb-12oz. He is now 18, graduated HS in the top ten, and is now in pre-Med in college.
God bless your baby.
You & Beckham are PROOF GOD STILL PERFORMS MIRACLES.
I’m a nurse and have been currently feeling lost in my career, asking God what the next steps are. I’ve always been pulled to NICU nursing and randomly, this video popped up on my recommended. Your powerful and beautiful story of your sweet baby boy had convinced me that this is what I need to be doing. I would be so honored to advocate for and care for sweet beautiful people such as yourself and Beckham. To witness miracles performed daily and be a part of them. Thank you for having the courage to share your story. You are one of the strongest women I have ever heard from snd your baby boy is truly a blessing from God. I wish you and your family all the best to come 💙
My daughter is a NICU grad, I cannot express enough how much love and respect I have for all nurses but ESPECIALLY NICU nurses!! You're taking care of such fragile beings, and dealing with parents truly scared and naive 😨 Thank you for what you do. God Bless!! ❤
This is one of the most beautiful comments I've ever read. God bless you! ❤🙏
Maybe you could be a mid wife, so many young couples that are married can't afford health care these days but want to help bring God's children into the world 🌎🙏🏻🙏🏾🙏🏼
Thank you so much for all ur work Morgan you are an angel to us parents that have had our babies in the NICU! 🙏🏻
Awhhh this is the most wholesome comment I’ve ever seen on social media!! I hope your comment is a reminder for you & everyone else who reads it, that God is real and ever-present to answer the prayers we have. He puts us in places that He knows we need to be, and I believe you finding this video was God putting you where you were meant to be!
You are a fabulous nurse, I already know that. You will be an even more fabulous NICU nurse & you’ll be an answer to so many family’s prayers. God bless you and good luck in your future! ❤️
Because HE lives, I can face tomorrow, because HE lives all fear is gone, because I know, know, know he holds the future, this life is worth the living just because HE lives!! God's got your whole precious family!!! One of my favorite songs (especially during these days), is a song called (Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face.....etc...) .❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Yes, yes, yes!!! I don't see how those who don't know Christ makes it through times like these!!! I'm so thankful I have hope and thankful that I have a relationship who holds tomorrow and the future!!!
That’s a beautiful song.
Thank you for reminding us!
PRAISE GOD! ✨❤️ I love the outpouring of faith and knowledge of HIM that everyone is showing in this comment section! I love you guys! GOD LIVES!!!
Amen 🙏🏾
I am bawling, I can not imagine how heavy this must be, and at the same time the love of a mother for her child is so big! You have fought with and for him! God is so good! He loves you, your family and your miracle boy! You are such a brave and strong mom!! 💛
I have CP, and was born at 27 weeks. I've heard so many wild, traumatic birth stories. Even knowing the darkest of the dark of what birth can be, Beckham's story is intense. I just wanted to say how happy it makes that he is here. He has a very steep hill to climb, but brains are amazing, and he is going to live a great life.
I love you. ❤️ Thank you so much for being here and leaving this sweet comment. You are an inspiration!
@@HOUSEOFHUGHES_ ❤️. It’s definitely not easy, But the journey is worth it. I’m 32, and I got my first power chair at 5. I’ve travelled overseas, graduated from law school and live alone with my pets.
It’s all about being determined, and taking every challenge as it comes.
@@danielle9074 You’re truly an inspiration 🙏
I was also born with 27 weeks, the doctors called me a miracle baby, I had a few bumps along the way, but I made it 😉 I’m 26 now and living life to the fullest! Your video was beautiful ❤️
You are amazing Jolie! Thank you so much for being here ❤️❤️❤️
i was also born at 27 weeks and i am now 15 i am a Rainbow baby i love you so much
@@abifisher1189 I was born at 25 weeks 1.8 ounces and had heart surgery at 2. And now I am 14
Lucky you you. Our anacestors lost a lot of kiddos but we live in a hyper scientifical World where we can save you that small even if it is risky !!!
@@cassyscherr4375 i was 1.4 ounces and glad to hire you are ok now
I BELIEVE THAT GOD PUT HIS HEALING HANDS OVER HIM AND ALL THE PRAYERS AND LOVE FROM EVERYONE. BLESSINGS AND HUGS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY 😇🥰🙏❤
👏🏻
Having a child born early in the nicu is heartbreaking. Our son was born 10 weeks early and spent 73 days in the nicu. Leaving a child in the hospital and going home was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. He had 7 different roommates and I watched everyone of them go home before us. I fought jealousy with that and seeing new moms in public with their babies. I also thought all the babies in the nicu were going home. Until one day I saw a priest in the unit praying over a dying baby. I went numb standing there watching the parents as they cried holding their baby. The nicu is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs I never want to experience again. Finally taking him home was a scary and exciting day. Thanks for telling your story.
God bless you sweetheart. I was a critical care nurse for many years. Didn’t cry until I heard you say. Beckum knew who you were. Tears flowing. Much love sent to you husband and family. ❤️
I’m a pediatric tach/vent nurse.. I was also okay until she said Beckham knew who she was!! Such a sweet little miracle baby!!
I just had my daughter a month ago at 33 weeks and she was in the nicu for a month. They told us she wouldn't be coming home for along time and she's home! God is a miracle worker in so many ways!
amazing! I am so glad she is home and thriving! Congrats mama!
Oh my gosh.. I genuinely don't even have words to type to express what a miracle this is. I couldn't stop crying. I can't imagine what you went through. I am a mom of two myself and the pain you must have gone through is unthinkable. You are so brave and strong, and so is Beckham. ❤️
Same 💙
It gives me and my girlfriend hope
Waymaker. MIRACLE WORKER. Promise Keeper. Light in the darkness
Absolutely!
That's who He is! 🙏🏾 Our God is AWESOME! 💖

How was it a “fatal” accident if no one died? Fatal means there was a death.
Bruh she was sressed did you not just here her
I also had a similarly traumatic birth, I wasn’t breathing when I was born (Not because of a car accident though, my heart goes out to you) . The same thing happened when I was in the NICU, I was very pale but when I met my dad I grabbed his finger and turned pink. I had multiple seizures, and I now have cerebral palsy and autism as well as other issues. I am almost twenty now, and I’m a healthy adult. It’s been a long and difficult road going to school and existing as a disabled person, but I am carving my own path in this world. No matter what, Beckham will be okay. ❤️ -Jules
Oh Jules, God bless you Jules💙
God bless you , ❤️❤️I’m very proud of you , your inspiring .
My daughter is almost 10 and is autistic. This made my heart so happy. 💓 thank you 🥰
💙 thank You Jules
Praise God you are a miracle to survive as well. Thanks for sharing. My husband has CP and is 70. You will have a wonderful life stay strong and know your worth.
Watching this as I feed my baby girl who was born at 26 weeks at 1lb 5oz. She came home on day 100 in the NICU and is 8 weeks adjusted now. Thank you for sharing your story, our NICU babies are so incredibly strong ❤️
Sending you and your little miracle babe so much love! 💕 I am so glad she pulled through! She has the strength of her mama!
I had my daughter when I was very young. I had a placenta abruption. I had 100% kidney failure..adult respiratory distress syndrome and dic...the doctor gave me a 1% chance of survival and my daughter 10% chance. She was 24 weeks,1lb 6oz…I made it through and she made it through with one brain bleed and that’s it! When I walked out of the hospital room (the pediatric intensive care) the nurses snd doctors cheered for me. The things I saw and went through would take forever to explain. God is real and miracles happen bc of him. I’m glad you and your son made it! God bless you both
I have chills. You and your daughter have fighting spirits. Thank you for that miraculous example and story ❤️
@@HOUSEOFHUGHES_ Thank you so much! You and your son do as well! I came across your channel and this was the first video I watched. I started watching all of your videos. You are an amazing women and mother and I feel a lot of the same emotions and feelings that you have talked about. You and your son have meaning on this earth. He is beautiful 😍
I had also at 36 weeks abruption placenta and my baby was affected...she died ..the doctors told me whole life she will need ventilation ,brain was damage ...The midwife wasted time in my situation , she saw cant find heartbeat to my baby and didnt call the doctor
@@marlimeful I am very sorry that happened. It is a very scary thing to go through and I wish your baby made it. I wish all the babies made it. Your baby is looking down on you and is your Angel. You will see her again one day 👼
I just loved to listen. My daughter was born at 27 weeks and 1.9lbs. She was in hospital for 6 months and came home at 4lbs. She had had 8 apnea attacks and totally was unable to breath for a few minutes on two occasions. She was fine until she was 2 and I was told she had leukemia. After a lot of giving this tiny girl to give so much blood it was told she had sickle cell anemia. During her pre teen she had a lot of nose bleeds but now at 30 she’s very small but perfect. God be praised. Thank you for bringing that whole memory back to me.
Oh my goodness your daughter is amazing and the strongest little girl in the world! She has overcome so much. You are such an incredible mom! That is absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for sharing her story!
Prems are so amazing! 💕
Wow, what your daughter went through wasn’t easy for me to read, but glad she’s thriving. She is a true warrior.
My goodness! I can't imagine the emotional rollercoaster that you endured. Reading what you and your daughter went through and overcame was amazing ❤️. God bless you and yours dear.
💜💪
Your story is so amazing! These preemie babies are fighters, my little Scarlett was born at 25 weeks after my water broke at 23 weeks, she was born at 1lb 10oz spent 4 months in the NICU, she was our first baby too so it was devastating. Being in the NICU changes you, mentally, physically and emotionally. Stay strong ❤
I'm so sorry you and your little Scarlet went through all that... especially that long and your first!! I agree that NICU changes you... my experience wasn't months like yours, but it still changed me. My daughter was born 2/20/21. She was a late term preemie, but had typical preemie struggles and was in the NICU for 2wks. 2wks in the NICU was so so so traumatic to me... I cannot imagine MONTHS. When she was 4wks old, she got COVID-19. When she was 8wks old, she was back in NICU for a week (not covid related, and thankfully it wasn't seizures which is why she was admitted that time!). She's a little fighter ❤ She's our 5th but 2nd I gave birth to (long story for a different time). When I realized my daughter would be ok and come home soon, I literally felt the adrenaline leave my body. It was the strangest feeling. I crashed so hard that night... finally slept after being awake for 7 days at that point.
@@mrs.elentz2336 I hope baby is doing well. The NICU does absolutely change you.
She was our first baby
I was born 24 weeks and 14 oz. I stayed 5 months in the hospital I’m glad he is ok
My 3rd son, who is a miracle truly, was born at 31 weeks. I was high risk from the moment I found out as medically I should never of been able to get pregnant. It was the most terrifying, emotional pregnancy, yet my amazing Dr and God got me to 31 weeks when my water broke. My Dr gives the glory to God also and being a NICU mommy truly does change you in every way. My son is now 14 1/2 and is incredibly healthy! Preemies are fighters and the nurses kept telling us that! They said since they fight from birth to survive they have a fight always. That's beyond true! God is so good!
A mother’s touch can be a power healer.
As a mother this breaks my heart that you had to go through this and not have the birth you wanted But so thankful you and your gorgeous little man made it!! Your are both so strong! 💙💙 xxx
I would do it a million times over again for him! Thank you so, so much!
You’re SO RESILIENT! And so is baby Beckham! So happy you and baby are okay now. I’m so happy you both survived the car crash. What an amazing story to be able to tell Beckham one day ♥️
Wow what a miracle June 13th is St Anthony’s feast! It’s grandly celebrated💙
That is amazing! Such a special day!
This story, what a rollercoaster ride . Beckham
Is a Boss!!! You are a true mama bear! God is good 🙏🏻 I know a couple who said the doctor told them their baby wouldn’t live at birth at only a bit over a pound. The nurses took that baby and told the couple, we will keep this baby alive and boy did they! That little girl is now 3 years old and perfectly healthy! 🙏🏻
Placenta abruption can cause symptoms of a shock including nausea, vomiting, and even fainting. So it is possible that it’s what led to the car accident not vice versa. But no matter what happened I’m glad the two of you are safe
I was thinking that. I was waiting for the reason why she fainted in the first place.
"He knew you are his mother." Oh my heart 💔 prayers for you both. Mother and son bonds are so precious
Thank you so much Erin!
I am so sorry this happened to you but I am also so proud of your strength and love. The pieces to your story have so many blessings throughout it. You and Beckham had ANGELS around you that day in spirit and person. I can feel your energy and see that you empathically feel others energy as well. ✌️💜🤗🙏
There were angels, no doubt. So beautiful. We are so blessed
My cousin was 28 weeks into her first baby when she was diagnosed with dangerously high blood pressure and her doctors could not find medication that would keep it down. The docs told her and her husband that she was risking having a stroke or worse, and they knew that delivering her baby would bring her blood pressure down. So, her son Clark was delivered at 28 weeks weighing barely a pound. He was so tiny but perfectly formed. He had the daily CT scans to monitor for brain bleeds and all was going well - until day 15. Clark (or Superman as the NICU staff called him). He had a bowel infarction (part of his intestines were not getting blood so those areas of intestine had died.). He was like flighted from Tupelo to the children’s hospital in Memphis to get another opinion on his bowel ( would he benefit from surgery or some new drug treatment.). Alas, our Clark passes away that day. His father wrote the most heartfelt article with the title “I saw Superman fly” referring to watching the helicopter take off for the trip to Memphis. Unfortunately, my cousin was told that she should not try for another pregnancy as they felt she would have the same problem. After some rims had passed, my cousin and her husband looked into adoption. After about a year, they were blessed with a baby girl, and she has filled their lives so much! Her daughter is 6 and she will refer to her angel brother. These little ones have so much fight in them to be so tiny!
My brother performs that kind of surgery on new borns, he is the only one in that part of the world who can save these babies, most of them survive. When we go down, we run sometimes into mothers who thinks the world of him. I feel proud! My mother especially. Every baby deserves a chance to live!
This story hits me so hard because when I was 6 months pregnant I got into a car accident and the car flipped multiple times with my almost one year old son in the back seat. It was one of the most terrifying events in my life. Thankful my son was perfectly fine. I broke my breastbone and had to stay in the hospital so my placenta could be monitored because they were scared my placenta would detach. I am so thankful that myself my son and my baby girl all made it through. I don’t know what I would do if I was in your situation
Oh my goodness, what a story! I am so, so grateful that you are both ok! You are such a strong mama. I know how scary that must have been! What a miracle!!
I gave birth to my son at 26 weeks and the hospital REFUSED to help him. Thank God he allowed your son to survive and thrive. I would give anything to have my son here and to be able to kiss his face. I am sending you so much love ❤️ God bless you all
I'm so sorry for your loss and I pray for continued comfort and healing. Can I ask what year this was or their reason?? That is so awful!! 😢
@@mrs.elentz2336I would have to think this must have been quite some time ago. I'm pretty sure all hospitals provide care if the baby is at least 23 weeks. Some hospitals will provide care younger than that depending on the how the baby is and if they're equipped. I've never heard of a hospital refusing care for a 26 weeker unless there was other circumstances with the baby like a medical condition making them not compatible with life.
I am my a miracle baby myself - I was born at 24 weeks and weighed one pound and eight ounces. I was given a 50 percent chance of survival. I was on a ventilator and feeding tube as well, I had brain bleeds and surgeries to save my eyesight. I went through many battles just like your son. God saved me just like he did your precious baby boy. What a miracle your sweet boy is, God is so good and you are so so so strong! I am now 21 years old, and a college student. There is hope & miracles happen! What a wonderful God we serve.
Ari you are amazing! You have accomplished so much in your life! I can't imagine the battles you have faced and with so much grace. GOD IS GREAT! Thank you for sharing your story and being proof of his existence! You inspire all of us!! XO
Your story is AMAZING
Your little boy is so lucky to have such open and brave parents! I’m sure this video was very difficult and possibly therapeutic to discuss. I’m a nicu nurse and always love hearing the side from the parents! Thank you for posting this and being so vulnerable and honest 🤗
We don't always feel brave so this is so kind to say! Thank you so much for being so incredibly kind!
Thank you Carly for taking care of our most vulnerable littles. 💜
I got into an accident when I was 8 months pregnant with my son and it happened almost the exact same way. I was feeling very dizzy and stopped at a red light and the last thing I remember was it turning green and then I woke up already crashed smoke filling my truck and so many people trying to help me. I was in the hospital for 6 days to stop the bleeding and from the baby coming early. He’s 14 now and I’m so thankful bcuz it really could’ve been worse. So hang in there momma u got this 💖
Praise the Lord! Prayers do lead to miracles. I am so touched by your story. My 16 y/o daughter was diagnoses with a rare, aggressive, childhood bone cancer with a grim diagnosis. By the grace of God and so many prayers, she survived. She is 19 now and still recovering, but every day that I see her face and hear her laugh is such an amazing gift❤
This video auto played while I was watching other random baby stuff - prepping for my first baby, I’m currently 19 weeks - and I started feeling a lot of movement in my belly about halfway as I started feeling so emotional! I can’t imagine how hard this whole ordeal must have been for you and your family but I’m so glad things turned out alright for you all. I don’t know how common accidents like yours are but you’re so brave for sharing your story and opening yourself up to this vulnerability online, I respect that a lot.
I'm 32 weeks and I feel you :'( I can't imagine going through this
Congratulations on your new little babe! I am so, so excited for you and everything is going to go perfectly! Thank you for your love, sympathy and support. It genuinely means the world to me!
Let go and let God.
You truly have been on an incredible journey, the fact that you shared….. I will never forget.
You WILL be held. Hunter WILL be held. And Beckham, well, HE WILL NOT ONLY BE HELD, but will do amazing things. He is a true Angel.
Sending so much love to you all ❤️
YES! Thank you so much for this love and support! God really has carried us through and I know he will continue to do so. We have only seen the beginning of the miracles he will preform!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Oh my gosh, the footage of the crash made me sob.. you’re so lucky you are both alive
Oh, I cried for 45 min straight. I’m so sorry for all the pain and sadness and fear you and your husband along other family and friends endured. The strength of your beautiful baby boy and his mommy and daddy is awe inspiring. I’m so glad he was able to come home. Thoughts and prayers continue to Beckham and everyone in his life. ❤️
Thank you Kelly 🥺💗
My child had to be hospitalized as an infant. He was not expected to survive.(he is fine years later!) I feel what you are saying. With every emotion you experienced I felt with my child. You have to go through it and feel it to know. I had ups and downs such as you, feeling blessed, as certain people would say the right thing to carry me through. And an experience that touched me so, while reflecting on. I am not sure how we all got through! Sometimes you will ask why, or you will feel gypped with not having the normal baby happy experience. However it is replaced with your miracle baby experience. Blessing for you, your family and your beautiful baby boy!
YES! I amy have missed out on a lot of normalcy but I gained so much by having a beautiful miracle baby that a normal birth experience would have never taught me. ❤ So happy to hear you and your baby boy are healthy!
That accident footage is truly one of the most terrifying things I’ve ever witnessed - knowing you were helpless and your baby in womb.. my heartbeat is ponding in my chest and face so hard .. tragic you can speak about this .. bless you and your family ❤️
Congratulations on your beautiful baby boy he is a miracle from God without him we are nothing but with God everything is possible God bless you guys and you guys are so blessed 🙏❤🍼👴👪 .
Thank you Jesus for making miracles for listening to our prayers for being so faithful.
Oh Rachel. We have a good God. I had to have an emergency c section and a long nicu stay as well and you articulated so many of the feelings I had. It’s incredible hearing it from someone else. We almost lost my son and had about 2k people praying for him, and now today he is perfectly healthy, thriving 4 month old. He even caught up to his actual age! God works all things for good for those called according to His purposes. Beckham’s life was saved because he has a purpose from Heaven. May you be blessed in raising and loving this precious boy. Thank you for sharing your story. You inspire me to share mine.
I’m now a soaking wet, snotty, slobbering mess. I weeped while listening to you describe what you experienced. My heart is so full and thankful that you and Beckham are well and thriving. Miracles absolutely do happen. You’re an amazing, strong woman and you are truly blessed. Thank you for sharing your story.
I’m so sorry. I pray this verse encourages you and comforts you. Romans 8:28 (KJV) “ And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.” As well you are so loved and valuable. I believe God has a plan. I’m praying for you. A friendly reminder with God all things are possible. God bless you abundantly. 😊💗💗💗
Omg I thought that was a stuffed puppy toy in the back until he moved. But wow this is so scary and thank GOD you and baby are safe! Very emotional.
Oh my goodness this is so visceral. I remember these days vividly too. I’m crying with you! You and your little family overcame mountains and I’m so proud to witness all the little miracles. God is good! I know that you have been able to help others through similar experiences and your strength has blessed many others (albeit not easy). Love you so much girl!
I love you so much! Thank you for being by my side through it all. I am so grateful you got to witness all of these miracles with us. You've been such a strength to me. We love you!
So true!!!
I have so much to say. But I’m just going to say one thing:
GOD IS SO GOOD!!! SO GOOD!!!
Wow, this video actually had me sobbing. Praise God for His faithfulness ❤️ I’ll be keeping your baby boy in my prayers!
I love you
Rejoicing over Beckham's life, and that all his blood levels regulated! Talk about a miracle from God.
The ups and downs of your story gripped me. i'm not a mom, though I wish I could have been, but I was a preemie baby. I was born at 26 weeks, in 1981, weigh one pound thirteen ounces. I'm blind, and have some texture and other sensory sensitivities, but otherwise I'm just like everyone else.
I grieve with the parents who lose their precious little ones. I can't imagine the grief and agony.
Sending prayers and love to you guys. I've seen this video on my recommended for several days now, so I gave it the attention it deserves. I'm glad I did.
Stay strong.
Wow, your story is amazing. I am so incredibly sorry for the things you have overcome. You are obviously an incredibly strong person and I know you bless the lives of everyone you're an incredible example to.
Honestly you really need to be a writer….your heartfelt emotional story grabs people’s attention…I’m truly sorry for everything you & baby Beckham went through….You have your miracle baby boy who beat all the odds…God Bless your family…🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
This is the sweetest compliment 🤍 Thank you so, so much Shelley!
I'm so happy you both survived. He is a miracle and a cutie. God bless you all. Healing, strengthening, positive vibes.
We are so blessed, Melissa! Thank you so much!
My brother was a C-section baby because of a placental abruption at 28 weeks. He weighed 2 lbs. He was in the NICU for a couple months, and now he's 27 years old, and so very very tall. Beckham is going to be amazing.
🇨🇦😭😭😭😭😭 🙏 I don't even know this lady but I want to hug her! I want to say I'm so sorry for all she and her family went through. 😭 I'm litterally bawling my eyes out texting this but I so feel her pain. I'm also crying and so relieved that 🙏 God was there with Beckham! 🙏 What a beautiful, absolutely beautiful lil baby boy! I want to say Congradulations with all my heart to this woman, her husband and family! What a gift from God! This little baby is a true miricle! Thank you so much for reminding me just how precious life is! God bless you all! 🙏❤️
No one can understand what it’s like to have a baby in the NICU, unless you’ve experienced it. My baby boy had a 3 week NICU stay. Its a scary experience just living day to day praying they’ll get better. Getting discharged is a surreal & amazing feeling!! #NICUstrong
❤❤❤
I do because my son was born very early
luckily you both made it out a live so this car accident wasn’t fatal but it almost was.
This sounds like my birth . We are stronger than we think mamma and so are our babies 🤩
Wow. I need a tissue. You are so strong, but I am so sorry you had to go through all this! I am a nurse, and I know how fragile life can be. I hope you are taking care of yourself, because there is clearly trauma, and you should make sure to talk to someone about it; your family members as well! I am so happy he is finally at home, and I wish you guys all the love and health in the world! Take care
I have an incredible support system and continue to work through it! It is all worth it for that perfect boy! Thank you so much for caring about us!
You popped up on my page, and I was drawn to watch your story. I know that you posted this a month ago, but I just can't help but feel that your urge to turn around to go home was something higher. You turned around, the man was working from home who never worked from home... A terrible day, but still a huge blessing.
So many miracles! Thank you so much for recognizing that. You are amazing and God always had a higher purpose!
This is SO true!
Crying because I too know what it’s like having a baby in an incubator. Thank God my son only had to be in the NICU for a few days but still that moment when you can do skin to skin is priceless
Had my baby about 2 months ago can't imagine having to go through all this. God, bless you guys If as soon as you find out you're pregnant you fall in love with the little soul you haven't even met.
Absolutely. Congratulations on your new little one, love!
@@HOUSEOFHUGHES_ thank you!
I’m so sorry this happened to you! you’re SO unbelievably strong and a huge inspiration to all of us. We’re so glad you’re okay and that Beckham survived💖😩 so scary! you’re such a beautiful person and I wish you nothing but the very best 💕
Im crying so much with your story.
I gave birth to my beautiful baby daughter, on 30th of June 2020. She was born without life because of Chorioamnotitis. (infection at amniotic fluid and placenta).
So many of the things that you say, I can relate. I felt in such a fog, out of reality.. I still sometimes cant believe it. I miss her so so much. She was my first child. My pregnancy was normal. I had to go home without her and have a funeral. I wish she was here.
Gloria, my heart is absolutely broken for you. I can't imagine the emotion and absolute heartache that would have come with a funeral had that been the case for us with Beckham. You are one of Gods strongest and that is so evident from your story. You are such a beautiful person to be kind enough to love me and my child and share your story. I'll be praying for you. I know she is always with you and that you will see her again someday.
@@HOUSEOFHUGHES_ thank you Rachel.
If my daughter would have survived (that is rare, because the infection was very strong) she would have had also cerebral palsy.
I cant imagine also the trauma that you must have been through. Did you get any therapy for it?
I did, and it helped a bit, but of course the pain will be forever.
Im now 37 weeks pregnant of a boy, my rainbow baby, and it has been such a difficult pregnancy, and it still is, but with the grace of god, everything will be fine.
Such recent heartbreak, you are a beautiful strong woman. I’m so sorry mama, your angel is safe ❤️❤️❤️
Fellow NICU mommy here, the NICU experience is very hard. It’s amazing because we get to meet our baby sooner and love them longer also see them grow outside of us but it’s very scary and very traumatic. I’m glad you both are okay! ❤️
You're so strong Trina! Thank you for your love and support!
When you described skin-to-skin contact with Beckham, I cried. That was powerful...
I wonder if that's what God used in reviving Beckham to where he was urinating properly, and his levels were normal.
Regardless, thanking God for all He has brought you through, not for the pain, but for the strength and love and gratitude you give Him. It's beautiful.
Deep down, this is what I believe. Thank you so much for this comment. Sending you so much love.
Yes! Same!!! I balled at that moment! All the fancy machines and DR and the most natural touch was the push start to hope.
@@jazpatuzzo4721 Yes! I am so glad they do this now, not just for full-term babies, but preemies as well. It's beautiful.
God bless your little baby. I was born three months premature 60 years ago. I've had a full life and a family (and now grandkids) and achieved a Masters degree. At first, the doctors told my 17 year old mother that they were just not going to feed me and "let her go".She said that I was as big as a pound of butter and my head was the size of a small orange.They were going to let me die because they thought that I would have too many health issues and learning disabilities.She gave them Hell and insisted they feed me.I was in the hospital for three months until I weighed enough to go home.She couldn't hold me for those three months.I had no health problems and no learning problems(although I did struggle with math). Thank-God that she didn't listen to them and let me go. When you are born this early, you carry the badge "survivor" with you throughout your life and it feels like you can surmount anything. I have, and I am better than fine! I am telling my story to give other parents hope when they have to go through the trauma of a preemie.This poor little guy has challenges ahead, but he has parents who love him and that is a good start in a life that started out so traumatically.
We had bought bows that were in honor of him for my little girl 2 years when he was still in the hospital my daughter just turned 2 and we are about to have another baby girl who gets to wear those bows we think of you guys every time we use them 🤍✨
He is absolutely a miracle! ❤️❤️👶🏼. Did you ever find out why you had that medical episode that caused the accident? And how are you if you've healed from your accident?
Wow. I just kind of stumbled upon this video, but I'm so touched. You told your story with so much feeling and clarity. I appreciate your sharing. Thank you Jesus that Beckham did in fact survive!! ♥️
i cried during this whole video. when i was pregnant this was my worst nightmare, and i still have driving anxiety to this day. i am so glad that you guys are okay, i know this must still be so traumatic for you and i truly feel for you. thank you for sharing your story, i feel so grateful to have had a “normal” pregnancy and delivery. you have reminded me to not take mine and my baby’s life for granted.
Me too
i’m sobbing my eyes out watching this you are so incredibly brave to be able to talk about this and be so vulnerable sharing yours and your special little angels story, i can not imagine it. you and your son are amazing and so so so strong to be able to go through something so traumatic and come out the other side stronger than ever. my heart is with you
So much love for you Lexi! Thank you so much 🥺❤️
I know this doesn’t compare but I was in an accident in August 2020 where I broke my back and neck and should have been left paralyzed. I stood up from my accident and somehow drove myself to the hospital. I’m not a religious person but there is truly no other explanation other than a guardian angel. Your story is full of miracles and i’m sure you had more than one guardian angel at your side throughout the whole experience 💕 Hope everything is still well, you’re both so so strong
You are amazing Terri! That must have been so scary! I am so grateful you are ok. I totally agree, a guardian angel, no doubt! Sending so much love to you XO
I had a baby that had to stay in the hospital due to jaundice. I cried all the way home. When she was seven months old she had a stroke and almost lost her. It was a terrifying time. This child was prayed for more than I have ever seen. She recovered and it’s been a long journey. She 27 years old now and still the light of my life. I took her back to the PICU when she was around two years old so they could see her again. As soon as I entered the room all the feelings came rushing back and tears welled up. It’s so emotional still. There are parts that I still can’t talk about without getting emotional. Hug your little boy for me! 💙
I am so glad your sweet girl is 27 and thriving! You are an amazing mother! Thank you for sharing her story. The power of prayer is REAL.
This was a BIG Miracle 🙏 God was watching over you and your son from after your car accident till now I believe that 100% 🙏. He’s a beautiful baby boy 🍼 💙 and God Bless you and your family. And all I can say about doctors and nurses are they are ALL Angels ♥️
My cousin was hit head on by a driver high on meth and heroin when she was 25 weeks pregnant. She was dead at the scene but the baby was alive. She was life flighted to the hospital where they got her heart beating again but it was for the baby. My cousin wasn't expected to survive. But she did. The baby made it to 25 weeks 3 days. She had a couple of brain bleeds and mild cerebral palsy but she's 11 years old now and strong. Her mama remained in a vegetative state for almost 9 years exactly before she died. We cared for her at home the entire time and she was shown much love and care. I'm glad that you and your baby are okay
Oh my goodness Madree, I am at a loss for words. I am so sorry your cousin went through this. I am so grateful her beautiful baby made it. What a strong woman. I know she left so much strength and love in her daughter. Thank you so much for sharing!
@@HOUSEOFHUGHES_ thank you. She was a beautiful young woman and so sweet. I think she was happy while she was still with us. She couldn't hug her daughter or tell her how much she loved her but I could see it in her eyes. There's a couple of news stories about her on here if you're interested. Her name is Cayla Wilson
I don't think your ever going to see this comment but I think you are amazing and you have a little fighter on your hands. I'm sending all my love to you and your family.💓💓💓
Thank you Kelly! 🤍🥺 I’m so grateful you are here and took the the time to watch his story XO
“There’s a lot we could do to him, but we want to make sure we’re doing it for him.” I don’t think I’ve ever heard a more heart wrenching sentence. 😰
Thank you for telling your story. 💛 I also had an emergency c-section, my first baby too. My son was born at 26 weeks and we were in the NICU for 3 months. He is now 3 years old today and a beautiful, perfect little boy!
So amazing! Thank you for sharing your miraculous story!
My daughter was born at 27 weeks too. She was 2.7 oz. It's such a journey. She was in hospital 91 days. So happy he survived and you!!! ☮️❤️💕
Listen when I heard your testimony I yelled out I cried out : God you are awesome when God is in it, everything is going to be alright"!!! No weapon form against you and Beckham shall prosper.....this is a testimony the Lord wanted the world to hear, I cried as you were speaking, hearing about a MIRACLE!!!!! Glory to God for Psalm 91....head of protection. PRAISE GOD
God bless your family. I had a critically ill child. People used to tell me that I was a saint because I was coping so well. All I could think at the time was that I am no saint. A saint would have asked for this. You will cope because you have no choice. God will be your strength. My daughter is now 30 years old. We made it and so will you.
Thank you for your sweet message of hope! I’m so grateful you and your daughter are doing well 🤍
I am so very glad you both survived. My little girl w as s born at 27 weeks as well, she was in the NICU for three months. My placenta erupted. Today she is a pretty healthy young lady at the age of 12. She has pulmonary stenosis. But I'm so grateful for all the drs and nurses.
I am so glad you are still here. That that sweet baby boy is still here. My heart goes out to you, I am a NICU mama as well. The pain you are describing of being without your baby, I know it very well. I’m so glad you two fought though it and are here today!!
Being a NICU mom is so hard and I know only those who have been through it truly understand! You are amazing, mama! Thank you so much for your love and support!
My son was due September 14. And was born June 15. He was born at 27 wks. He is 13 and absolutely wonderful to this day.
I'm 21 weeks pregnant and this is making me cry with you. So many intense moments and miracles
Congratulations mama! Thank you for the love!!
Currently 28w 5 days and I sobbed so hard while watching! Then I followed up on her story and seen the little guy now! He is so so beautiful and sweet !
Beckham is so strong and you all, as his family, are so strong. I was born with CP after a traumatic birth 28 years ago, and life has been hard, but it’s abundant. I’ve earned 2 college degrees, own a home, work full-time at a fulfilling job, have a beautiful family…. There is so much potential coming in the future! You’re so lucky to have him and he is lucky to have you as his parents.
YOU ARE AMAZING! I can’t imagine how much you’ve had to overcome. Sending you so much love ❤️
Got to 21.45 without crying, but you talking about your sweet boy knowing that you was his mum by touching him made me cry. I've got two boys, my second is 4 weeks old so I should probably blame the hormones lol. I had an emergency csection with my first who's now 4, and a planned csection with my second (which went wrong) and the way those babies react to us mamas is something else. It's so precious and I just couldn't help but cry when you said those words 🥰 the trauma from everything gets better but it stays with you forever. Keep talking, keep letting those emotions out. You are all incredible. wishing you all the best from the UK xx
Awe thank you sweet mama! I am so sorry that you have also been through so much! It is all worth it for our sweet little babes!!
God bless you and your husband with the strength and grace to carry through... Sending you love from Ghana
Awe thank you! Sending love right back XO
So proud of you for this video
I love you so much. Forever my rock.
I was a premie baby, was born at 7months 3lbs ish in John Hopkins, they said I wouldn’t walk or talk… BUT, by the grace of god. I’m “normal” whatever that is. The only thing at 29 that I know is I have generational mental health issues 🤷🏼♀️ hope that leaves you & your husband with a little comfort if they say anything will be wrong with your son ❤️ I did have a little trouble in school & had a individualized learning plan thinking back BUT, that could just be the rate/pace I had learned at 🤷🏼♀️😂
It's a little sad that all of the praise goes to your god rather than the medical team that actually brought him back. I'm glad your faith was able to help you through this devastating experience, but give credit where credit is due. The doctors saved your son, your god saved you.
Absolutely. Those doctors and nurses who stood by this baby saved him.
@Amelia Marcum Thats your opinion, but medicine is fact.
@Amelia Marcum I LOVED your response here! Glory to God! We’re so grateful for the medical team of COURSE.
My personal belief is that the God inspired the medical team of doctors and nurses to know exactly what to do to preform miracles and save my baby boy. They BOTH are given glory and I am so grateful to God and the entire medical team that saved us. Everyone here is correct. Both saved our lives and I am forever grateful. Glory to God and the amazing individuals who were so incredibly talented and dedicate their lives to learning and acquiring the skill and knowledge to save people everyday!
My best friend went through the same thing. She was 23 weeks. The baby now is 13. God speed
Bless your heart!! I too had an emergency c section at 28 weeks! My son, Cash, weighed in at 2lbs 11 ounces! What little miracles we have! To God be all the glory!!!
Awe Cash is a sweet little miracle baby! I am so glad he is doing great. You go, mama!
I’m 21 weeks pregnant now and I cannot imagine going through what you went through. Your son has a very strong mother.
Wow Rachel! I was 39 weeks pregnant and one night I woke up in the middle of the night to go potty. I suddenly went through the same episode you went through. Light headed..then I passed out in the hallway. My husband found me an hour later and called 911. In the ambulance they could not find a heartbeat. My placenta had abrupted and my son had already passed. Stillborn at 39 weeks. He was absolutely beautiful and perfect. He would be 11 today.
Oh I’m so sorry that happened to you! I can’t even imagine what you had to go through.
@@MsMisha14 Thank you.
Oh my goodness, my heart is truly broken for you. I am genuinely so sorry. I don't know why some have to experience this type of heartache in this lifetime but I do know it's because you are one of Gods strongest. You will see your angel again. Sending you so much love.
Anybody got a tissue, I can't even watch this video without crying. Beckham is a miracle. I can't even imagine how hard this video was to make. I plan on following you guys journey and seeing little Beckham grow up. Love you guys god bless!👣
He really is! Thank you so much for watching Gwyn. You are so sweet and i'm so grateful I could share his story. God Bless you too!
I just discovered your channel yesterday since I am home sick and to be honest I am obsessed, I don't like those super popular people that don't show real life you show the definition of real life which makes me so happy! You the best!
