    I’m so happy for you guys and I’m so happy I found your channel when I did! As an expecting first-time mom, your videos have been such an encouraging message for me through out my pregnancy. I’m 27 weeks and throughout this process alot of people I know personally have continuously painted a negative, scary picture for me about pregnancy and child birth. So it was extremely relieving to find your channel and to see your positive mindset on the topics I had been really worried about. I’m so much more comfortable with everything that could happen and the possibilities of my pregnancy and child birth thanks to your stories and videos. My entire perception has been changed thanks to you and a few other great mom-tubers on this platform. Your videos really do make a difference and my husband is also super grateful that I’m not constantly worried anymore. So thank you so much to your entire family for all the videos and content you guys provide!

    I think it's quite normal not to feel that instant connection with your baby. I didn't when I held my son in my arms. It took a good week to feel that intensity you've described. He's now 6 months and he is my entire world. Love your videos, it's great that you've had a positive birth.. a lot of people wants to focus on the negative side of it. Mine was 22 hours, had to have stitching as was cut and it took 5/6 weeks for me to heal properly but I still consider it quite positive 😁🤷🏻‍♀️

    Loved watching your labor story! I could so relate as I gave birth just 3 days before you!! Our little one wasn't due until May 11th, and we had a csection scheduled for May 6th (my 5th csection). We didn't know Baby's gender either. We had at the time 6 girls and 1 boy (3 of our girls are adopted through foster care) so we were REALLY hoping for another boy! On Thursday, April 25 i had 2 appointments, one with my gestational diabetes specialist and a growth scan ultrasound for Baby. Told my doctor I felt a little crampy that morning, but nothing else. That day hubby picked up the carseat and I finished packing our hospital bags. We went to bed and Hubby said he thought at first I would go early, but he didn't think I would anymore. Baby was listening ;-) at 2 am with zero anything happening, no contractions, nothing I was lying in bed ready to get up to go to the bathroom and I felt like Baby jumped, then my water broke!! I yelled for hubby to get a towel while he was sleeping. I said it again and he jumped out of bed. He called the hospital and his mom to come over to watch our other children. She and their family had just been to the midnight showing of the new Avengers movie, so they had JUST gotten home. Thankfully no contractions started until we were on our way to the hospital, which is a 30 minute drive. My doctor was supposed to be gone for our delivery too, but since we went early, she happened to be the doctor on call!! As soon as we arrived they started prepping for surgery. I also was very calm due to focusing on breathing. It's not something I planned, it just felt right. I was a little scared this time around for the surgery.. hubby prayed as well before we went in. The anesthesia scared me and they had trouble administering it. The surgery was a lot different than I remember. It seemed to take FOREVER!! Once Baby was out they let my husband look and see and call out the gender... it was a BOY!!! We both cried!! Thankfully this was also the first time we've ever gotten to do skin to skin after the surgery. They handed him right to me over the screen. Before they always took the baby right away and started cleaning, weighing, whatever else they do and I just had to watch across the room. I felt the bond immediately which I've never had.. I feel like I got robbed from that with my other babies. I'm so glad I had our son to hold as a distraction because the finishing up took forever and it was very uncomfortable. Baby peed on me 2 times while skin to skin 😅 he was born at 5:08am on Friday, April 26th. I was 37w 6d along. I'm SO glad he came when he did instead of according to our plans. God's timing was WAY better!! His name is Henrik Robert, he weighed 7lbs 6oz and was 21 inches long. He's perfect!! :-D thanks for sharing your story and for asking us to share ours!! ♡♡♡

    I was wondering how you stayed so calm! My experience was *much* different.. I was induced, and couldn't push him out for so long. I almost gave up until my husband showed me his head and that gave me the strength to keep going 💕 it was traumatic for me, my whole face was swollen - I wasn't doing anything right. In the end, seeing my baby boy and holding him for the first time was absolutely the best moment of my life. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. Someday I hope to, and do it right!!! 💕 Much love to you all 🧡

  • @jaci-leemiller1508
    @jaci-leemiller1508 5 лет назад

    Your birth story sounds like every girls dream!! I was induced and ended up having to have a c section after 25 hours of labor and not being able to progress pass 7cm. I felt so out of control and not able to cope with the pain at all (definitely wished I had the idea to have someone count breaths with me). Honestly when they came in and said they would have to do c section, I was so ready to just get it over with. I had my daughter at 5:13pm and I got to see her probably around 8pm? It’s hard to remember everything because of all the medication and craziness. Before giving birth I was so against having a section or anything medicated, but you literally cannot plan for birth at all besides trying to ease your mindset. From my experience, it’s good to just let things happen. I’m so happy for you and your little family Delilah. Your videos helped inspire me during my pregnancy as a first time mom and made me so excited to become a mother. 🌸💗

  • @oksanakarpov6536

    My experience was similar to yours in that during the second time I was giving birth I felt super aware of what was going on around me, while the first time around I was just in my own little world. I think it’s because I was more calm the second time around since I knew more of what to expect. Loved hearing about your experience. ☺️

    I was induced and had a 24 hour labor and it was all back labor. I was begging for a c-section just to make it end. I did end up delivering natural. I am so thankful for people who have birth stories like yours that share. Usually all you hear are the horrible ones like mine that scare people from wanting to have kids in the first place.

    I love hearing beautiful and positive birth stories! And I love watching your videos! After going into 41 wks with baby boy and trying to induce labor last year, he ended up getting delivered via c section. Getting induced was absolutely the worst experience ever. I was literally suffering and will likely never do that again. I'm hoping to do a VBAC for the next one and have the birth that I've always dreamed of. But if not, I can live vicariously through your births ♥️

    I just delivered my baby at 40w4d and you and I had almost the exact same experience! Very short labour, got to the hospital around 3 am and had the baby by 4:12, 4 pushes, controlled breathing through all my contractions, completely unmediated, only difference is that I had a water birth and my son was born with his bag of waters in tact! I loved hearing your story it was like I relived my night lol congrats !

  • @bedheadbutterfly
    @bedheadbutterfly 5 лет назад

    Thank God for you and that you are an influencer in the way that you are because you are so relatable and encouraging and sweet. I was tearing up through this whole video because it made me believe in myself a little more, concerning my upcoming delivery in September. My first, last January, I went six days overdue and my husband and I went walking for DAYS trying to make me go into labor, which caused me to be in "pre-labor" (I think is what they called it) for about two days before they induced me at three or four in the morning (LONG story bc they usually do 10 pm inductions). I wanted to do it naturally SO BAD but I think I exhausted myself, so about four hours in when the contractions got intense and the doctor wanted to break my water, my mother-in-law told me it was going to be seven more hours before I was fully dilated and ready for delivery and I ended up asking for an epidural. But when I let go, stopped trying to breathe through the pain because the epidural was supposed to take care of the pain, that is when I really started feeling it. That's why this video encourages me so much, because I KNEW it had something to do with my work on breathing and relaxation, and now I really do know. Thank you so much. I always smile when I watch you and your family in your videos, since I discovered your channel when my son was about three months old. Praise God you had an awesome delivery and have such a wonderful baby and family. 💕

    it's crazy how fast your labors are!!!! i have one daughter, she's 9 months old now.. i was terrified of labor for as long as i can remember lol i remember being so young & just thinking how horrible the pain must be.. fast forward to finally having my baby.. i was 38 weeks & 1 day & woke up totally normal.. went to the bathroom, next thing i know i had cramps & chills like crazy!! then i used the restroom just like you, my body was emptying itself (so glad too cause i didn't wanna poop during labor lol), realized i was in labor & contractions were less than 4 min apart, lasting almost a minute from the get-go! but they were bareable & i just breathed through them.. i drank a tea, ate a full breakfast, showered for the longest time, shaved & everything LOL, packed my hospital bag, & just chilled at home for about 8 hrs before i felt i needed to leave to the hospital.. i got checked around 6:30pm, was only 4cm dilated, went to walk for an hour, around 7:30pm got checked again & was 7cm dilated!! they had me run, literally run to the delivery room lol i laid in the bed with a peanut ball in between my legs, at 8:08 my water broke, which to me, was such a weird feeling & i panicked cause my husband had left to go get a camera & update his parents lol but he walked in seconds later, & good thing he did because 3 min after my water broke, my baby girl Amelia Rose was born at 8:11pm, after 2 pushes & practically no tearing.. God is so good, i had an amazing, unmedicated labor & birth experience, which was exactly what i prayed for! total it was less than 11 hrs... hoping the next one is faster & just as easy!!!!!

    Thank you for sharing! Currently 39w2d with my second babygirl (our first ist turning 2 soon too). My first labor and delivery was so similar to yours, also very short, fast and the midwives didn't take me seriously. They were like: your a first time mom, it will take long. They even left the room and my husband had to run out to get them back because as soon as they left I felt the urge to push, my water bulged and broke (it looked and felt like the head coming out and exploded), they came back and the head was already coming out then and with just a few pushes she was out, like half an hour after arriving at the hospital and having had the very first contraction 2 hours before. So this time around I am also preparing for a fast labor and looking out for signs to go in as soon as possible. I hope it goes as smoothly as yours, you made it look so easy!! Congrats to you and your lovely little family, it's so nice to watch you because I can relate so much :) love from Austria

    I totally understand the last month feeling soooo long, my experience was kinda similar. I had a feeling my daughter would come early, had this huge pressure and constant contractions on and off. I ended up being induced at 41 weeks, I was feeling so stressed and disappointed, I wasn't able to focus at all, I needed an epidural. Thankfully my labor didn't take too long, and baby was out after 15 mins of pushing. I remember it took me a few days to have reality sink in, having a baby is so surreal.

Everything was "My Terrifying Birth Story" or "My Baby Was Stuck"; needless to say, I was mortified and instructed all of my family and friends to ONLY share the positives in their birth stories. You are such a beautiful role model for young mother's and mothers to be.

I am a young mom as well, I'm 21 with a 2 (almost 3) year old son and an 8 month old son and I'm married to my middle school crush/highschool sweetheart. I delivered both of my boys naturally and unmedicated too. My oldest was 3 days early and needed to be admitted into the NICU for a week due to a blood clot in my placenta that none of my doctors knew about. That caused him to be small for gestational age and have some breathing problems but he is totally fine and health now. My youngest was born 6 weeks early after my water broke suddenly one night, I was later diagnosed with polyhydraminos which is a condition that caused me to have too much amniotic fluid and the sack couldn't hold it anymore and ruptured. He spent 2 weeks in the NICU and is now healthy with no permanent effects from being premature except that he's smaller than the average baby his age. I can't wait to watch you and your family continue to grow! Best wishes to you all!

    You are so blessed to have such an amazing birth! Mine was also good (and unmedicated!) but 24 hours with 2.5 hours of pushing... my muscles also felt dead after that 😂 It’s so great that you didn’t tear. I remember thinking that because pushing was taking so long for me, that I probably wouldn’t tear but I did. I also realized I’ll have to ask to see the placenta next time because they didn’t show it to me. I guess I just assumed everyone would want to see it haha! I also had a surprise gender birth and was so happy to have a little boy, but also didn’t feel a crazy connection right away. I was disappointed because everyone hyped up that moment and it just didn’t happen like that for me. Our bond has just gradually grown stronger over time!

    I love little Theo! So sweet! Thanks for sharing this Delilah...praying that my new baby is delivered as quickly as you experienced. 😅 with my son, my first baby, my water broke at 8 a.m. and he was born by emergency C-section at 5 PM. I never actually got to feel any labor contractions because they gave me a bunch of drugs to try and induce the labor. I had to work through a lot of stuff emotionally afterwards, just with feeling like I was robbed of giving birth to my son or experiencing labor at all. But I would happily do it all over again! A healthy, happy baby boy is worth any kind of emotional scarring haha. 😉 He was 7 pounds and 19 in! In the end I realized that God was probably sparing me from a lot of physical pain and suffering from trying to deliver him,love! !😜

    So sweet! We had very similar first births! My water broke at 12:30am, got to the hospital at 3:00am at 8cm (the nurse didn't think I was actually in labor until she checked me), barely time for an IV, I pushed for maybe 5-10 minutes and he came out in 1 push at 4:53am! Fingers crossed for a similar second birth if we are lucky enough to have another!

    I think my kids will have a similar age gap as yours (older is 18month) and I am 25 weeks preggo. I am concern about jealousy! Specially because my older boy gets mad when his dad is hugging or kissing me haha.
    My 1st delivery was pretty good. The only thing I would change if I could, since my water broke and went to the hospital right away, they gave me Pitocin to get things started. It was painful but not a long labor. Thankfully I did not tear.

    Hi! Watching from Denmark and i have really been enjoying your videos lately ❤ thank you for that fantastic birth story. I had my son a year ago at a midwife assited homebirth. Labour was long and slow but entirely managable since the intensity increased over such a long time. After three days of labouring my son was born in the birthingpool, pink and healthy. we are expecting our second child this december and will definately go for at homebirth again!

    I’ve been so looking forward to this video. And I’m really curious to hear about your afterbirth story too. I had a pretty rough after birth too. I’m like you and had a fast 2.5 hour labor with my first. I tore really badly because it was so fast and had 3rd degree tears that required more stitches than a C-section. I also had postpartum hemorrhaging and had to have a blood transfusion. It was definitely scary but God gave me so much peace through it all. I’m currently 8 weeks pregnant with baby #2. I’m trying so hard to not worry about this birth and trust that God is in control. Watching your birth video has given me so much peace. I’m definitely going to try some breathing techniques this time around.

    did you have to push out your placenta the first time too? I didn't with my son, they kind of just pushed on my stomach and another doctor pulled it out at the same time. I am due any day now with my daughter and just kind of expect that to happen the same way but then again it may not. it is interesting how every doctor will do things differently and at every hospital too.

    So beautiful!! Congratulations on 54k you disserve it and so much more. Theo is beautiful he's a mini Zach!
    So I have my first 4 years ago now. Everything went smoothly till 22weeks when my water broke. I was in the process of getting transferred to a larger hospital it a bigger city that has a higher level NICU. But a few days before the transfer I have a prolapse cord. Me and my husband choose to have a C-section to give our son a chance to survive. He sadly did not make it and passed away in my husbands arms. Soon my epidural started where off and I started feeling everything. They knocked me out and coming to was awful. The hospital and staff was amazing they aloud me to stay with him and hold him till the day before I got discharged. That was the hardest time in my life. But I had an amazing support system. Last year on Valentine's day I took a pregnancy test to my shock it came out positive. We where going to start trying but I had a lot of weight to lose and I had just found out I have PCOS and that I was going to stuggle to get pregnant because I wasn't ovulating Everytime and my cycles where long . I was over the moon but my pregnancy was so hard. I threw up for 8 months I could never eat anything. I threw up so much one weekend I lost 14lbs. I eventually got put on bed rest at 32weeks for incompetent cervix. Meaning my cervix shortened and I was dilating from the inside. And I had already been taking progesterone shots every week. So my doctor choose to have me deliver at 36weeks v C-section since she did not do Vbac. On September 17 I went in early morning barley sleeping the night before to have my baby. I was Soo nervous. Walking down to the operating room was so hard. As they gave me to epidural I had to control myself from not crying yet . I had a beautiful baby boy Oliver! He had to spend a week in the NICU due to low blood sugar and jaundice. But when I finally took him home I was over the moon I loved him at first sight. Now he is 8 months old today and quiet a handful!! And the light of our lives. Your birth vlog was so beautiful. I wish I had been able to do that but it was not God's plan for me. And I am totally okay with that. Sadly I will always have to deliver at 36 weeks due to thin uterus walls from my last c section . Thank you for letting me share my story. I don't have any mommy friends where I live since it's a retirement town I wouldn't know where to find them lol. God bless ! ☺️ Much love from Florida!!

    I'm super late to the party. But it's a beautiful birth story ❣
    I gave birth to my first baby on June 25. My water broke at 5:41AM, contractions started really slow at around 6:15, I was 3 cm dilated at 7:00, 5cm at 9:00 and gave birth at 14:55 after a full hour of pushing (which sounds like a long time, but it felt sooo fast!!)
    100% natural, no IV, no medication whatsoever. Except after the birth, where I was given some kind of medication to prevent extrem bleeding.

    Yay!! Wow God was really with you guys 💕
    My water broke at home while I was sleeping. It woke me up it was like a loud bang! I wasn't convinced for about 20 minutes tho. Labor and delivery totalled 17 hours. I went in at 4cm. 7hours later I was at 9cm and had been stuck there for 2 hours... Finally caved and got an epidural. 7 hours later I was finally at 10cm. Little over an hour of waiting for the dr. Almost 2 hours of pushing and the dr popping in and out. And then finally she was like "want this baby out?" And I'm like YES. And so my little guy was delivered w the help of forceps and was 9lbs even.
    My husband's job was to apply pressure to my back and hips during contractions and to calmly remind me to breathe "low and slow" and before I decided to get the epidural he said it and I just yell "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT" ... I lost control for a second l and then I was like omg I'm so sorry ! Lol

    Well...my 1st baby in 2014, 3 days post due date, small leak (not a full break) of my waters. After 24 hrs and no signs labour, I was induced with pitocin which was the beginning of a downward spiral of interventions. After a very very long, horrible day, she was born by emergency csec b/c her head was fully stuck in canal.
    3.5 years later, after 3.5 years of thinking perhaps I had a pelvis not optimal for giving birth, I had our 2nd daughter (2018). Spontaneous labour 1 days past due date. Rapid progression was the diagnosis. A very very fast drive the the hospital (which is 30 min away) and I was involunatrily pushing the whole way, gave birth in Emergency b/c I was too far gone to be transported to Mat floor. I still cannot believe I got my vbac...and all natural at that.

    And your channel is growing so fast!😱 I think you will have 100K by the end of this year!🎉🎉🎉
    I think you would love having a home birth. It's less stressful, no need to pack and rush to the hospital, you're in your own environment. But the best thing is you get to deside everything. When I wanted to walk, I could. When I wanted to eat, I could. I gave birth in the squatting position in the pool and let gravity help, what was so much nicer than laying down. It's so empowering. I had 2 ours of skin to skin, and after 3 ours my doctor and midwife and family went home and I could rest without being disturbed. They came and checked me and Marlon everyday for 2 weeks. I would recommend it to everyone who has a healthy pregnancy.
    Lots of love, Chavely😘
