I was just talking with my friends at work today about kids and saying how I never want to have kids. I've watched a few labor and delivery stories on RUclips, and all of them have only served to reinforce my conviction. So when I clicked on this one I was expecting the same effect. Surprisingly,I'm now reconsidering my stance. Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing this Sharon!
You don't know how this video helped me in 2019,I watched it over and over and the timings of contractions were exactly as you discribed yours,I got to the hospital and in 20 mins I had already delivered my baby girl.Thank you.
Beautiful story Sharon. And oooh my.... you can tell a story....felt like watching a movie....i don't know how you ain't in acting.Like seriously. Congratulations for your bravery and bringing life into this world. Indeed you are a BOSS.
omg people stop cutting onions already. 😢😢😢 This was so beautiful. Your story kept making me laugh and cry at the same time. I mean i watch that birth show "ONE BORN EVERY MINUTE" and i still have tears flowing down my face through each birth. Women are phenomenal beings. Our bodies are so magical.
I'm really hunched over rocking myself trying to process this story Issa big nooope from me! Any baby fever I had is GONE! But you're so right! Our bodies are amazing! You're amazing! So much respect for anyone who has given birth! Anyway..can we talk about how SNATCHED you are post baby!? Gwarn whicho boss self! ;)
giving birth naturally is the most beautiful thing a mother can experience. i was there 3 years ago and when i heard my daughters first cry all what i said repeatedly is "Thank you Jesus" thanks for sharing the video
I literally tore up when i heard your baby crying for the first time because it took me back to the moment i heard my daughter crying for the first time...maaan after all things i did the whole 12+ hours that i was in labour, her cry was my call back to sanity. She is 10 months now and the those 10 months have been nothing short of wonderful. Thanks for sharing your story. Always a pleasure watching your videos. My day's already made.
Congratulations Sharon! Love that you understood that your body knows what to do. You laboured like a boss too! I hope mums are encouraged by this story. Labour requires movement. Hip movement which helps rock your pelvis. Loved that water made such a huge difference. Loved loved hearing the baby's cry! Happy for you!
I'm not usually a fan of these cos they make me so uncomfortable...but your honesty and frankness is so refreshing. I hate pain too - another scaredy cat here - and as I've not become a mother yet - the little pain I've had so far has been unbearable or so I thought. Thanks for sharing. You've got a new fan.
Lies they tell...'I am going to give you something to 'strengthen' your contraction' . I was told am going to give you something to 'energize' you. The contractions after OMG!! Your choice of words...'you were loosing your mind' after was sooo accurate. Childbirth is no joke! Life and death situations. On the flip side though the gift of a child such a blessing
Sharon, this is your best video yet- hands down! Thanks for sharing! ❤️❤️ One more thing, there's clearly an improvement in the content you share - taking the one-year break worked in your favor! Thank you Sharon!
Wow!I have really been reminded of my two times in that room.A three year old & a 10months old. Oh the journey! I thank God for the greatest gyn ever! Congratulations.
Sharon this is so inspiring, I am 6 months pregnant and just like you I don't handle pain so well I am scared to death but after watching this I feel like it really will be okay...thank you!
I love hearing birth stories. Theg are all so unique. My water actually broke 'like in the movies'. Only I was not out shopping or something. I was in my bed. The music and baby's cry at the end made this so emotional. Bless. X
Oh my God. I literally got chills when I heard that baby cry, rewinded to that part of the paed and got chills a second time. Congratulations Boss-mama on bringing baby Aria safely into the world.
When I heard youre babys first cry I teared ,how sweet the sound .....am 35 weeks pregnant, I will try remember to record her first cry.You actually have given me confidence about giving birth , just like the pediatrician said am going to suck it up for my baby.keep up the vlogging.....and am suggesting please if you could do a video of the must have items and the not sooo useful things you bought and also another on how you coped with baby the first weeks.Bless you!
This is so beautiful thanks for sharing, a few common things there like when the Doc ruptured your water and the warmth that followed made me remember 5 years ago when i delivered my daughter, Janelle.
@This Is Ess funny that I’m watching this today, 08 May, on her birthday. Happy Birthday to your sweet little blessing Aria. Well done for being a mom, and Happy Mother’s Day for Sunday. You are doing great. Stay blessed.
I have been waiting all week for your video. You are brave for sharing, my labour was very confusing and involved a lot of dancing, my birth story was all kinds of gross and beautiful at the same time and the stitching part was.... no words to describe it. But I still want to do it again, at least two or three more times.
You just made me have memories of 2012 when my girl was born... Wow, motherhood is great and so fulfilling. Life changing as well, plus hardening... Lol, I can't finish describing motherhood. Congratulations my girl Sharon!
I couldn't hold my tears when I heard her first cry. This is beautiful, but also shows us the strength we women have. Thanks for sharing this especially for the moms to be.
This is the most beautiful experience one can ever go through, my baby came on 10th May 2019 at 4am. After hearing her first cry and knowing she was safe and sound...usingizi is what followed...I met her hours later.
Hi ess, I just realised we gave birth the same day. I had a little girl too called inaya the 8/5/2017. Labor is indeed the hardest experience ever but also the most beautiful when u have ur baby in the arms. Love to watch your videos.
Haha being 5 months postpartum right now I just laugh watching this. My threshold for pain is pretty low and as soon as I knew I was pregnant I started researching for pain management options in Kenya. Thank God I found a hospital that offered this and I am so glad I got an epidural. Baby no 2 and 3 def getting it also.
This reminds me so much of the delivery of my son. Its the most amazing experience. That first cry... and when they gave him to me, he went silent and was just staring at me as i cooed at him and cried in happiness. Everything that happened till that moment...was worth it!
'The pain was so bad I vomitted' omgggg I'm sure that wasn't meant to be funny but I was cacklingggg. This story is amazing, this is the first video I've seen from you & I love it! Thanks for sharing ❤️
Birth story well told. Cheers to all of us women who have to go through first-trimester hormonal changes that wreck havoc to our bodies in ways we never could have imagined and yet at the end bring out these beautiful little angels. Cheers boss mama
Wah! Aki! Okay. Congratulations!!! You are a hero. Bringing someone into the world is no joke. She was born two days before my birthday!!! May babies!! And her name is adorable. 💃💃 Feeling so proud of you right now... Beautiful!!
And I realized "I'm a boss bitch" lmaooo 😂😂🤣...I've noticed a difference between your pre and post baby posts. You have grown so much and have become so much of yourself with no apologies, yasss sharon this is your best video yet!
Oh my gosh this brought me so many memories. No. 1. You're hilarious {I know it wasn't hilarious then :) } No. 2. I was also in denial. Like my contractions started at 11.00 am n I was at work thinking they are Braxton hicks. Went about my day, reached home around 5pm, around 7pm they were now 5 min apart and I still made dinner but wah! I did not get to eat it. Full on labour at 8pm, I hadn't packed my bag (It was 2 weeks early) so I start packing literally on my knees then went to hospital. I was 3cm dilated. Denial is reeeal. So happy for you :). I love your videos.
i was two weeks late. I used to sleep at a couch next to my door with my bags ready waiting for a labour pain that never came naturally. had to be induced. I was so tired of waiting I wanted the baby to come already.
My! Watching you has brought me memories of my deliveries. (2) . and Naila's cry brought tears to my eyes. God bless u and your family. Indeed, having a baby is a beautiful gift of life and love. enjoy every bit motherhood is the hood in the world.
Truely you are one strong woman.....This video has made me realize how much I should treat my body well, but at the same time fear getting pregnant anytime soon...coz God knows I hate pain..
This is the best story you've ever shared with us, thank you. 😊 It was really hilarious, 😂 especially the part where you were pretending not to have contractions, gold!👌😁 Congratulations!!! 😄
i loved this video so much i usually do not watch videos this long but trust me i sat and watched all of it, even rewinding some parts thats how good it was
I'm just getting to watch this......birthing is amazing (when you get to meet your little one it is worth all the gory experience). Love the narration, very captivating.
That was such an incredible experience. You are a boss for sure. Can't wait to have my own experience. You made me cry when I heard the baby's cry. More life and love to you and Aria.
Hey Sharon, you may not remember me but I definitely remember you ...that sounds like something an old aunt would say lol I was two years behind you in Rusinga, Your story/ experience is relatable (especially when it came to denial) and moving (cried a bit). Thank you for sharing. I pray when the time comes, I'll be as strong as you are.
This is really helpful Sharon. I am expecting and I laughed through it and kinda felt a bit anxious when the nurse did her thing. But most importantly your insight (raw truth) has really helped. God bless you and your family.
oh my gosh this is a wonderful video, thanks for sharing. I enjoyed every bit of it and so emotional as well. Motherhood is just a whole other level of love (after all that horrific pain that is🙄)-its all worth it in the end. I can't stop gushing over my baby girl. God bless and keep your child for you. Blessings Sharon!
I'm reading comments here and wow everybody's pregnancy and labour is different , I dilated upto 6cm with no pain and nurse was surprised so they induced me and my! That pain is unexplainable!!!! Luckily it only lasted 30 mins and I popped my baby girl, I would say I'm lucky to only get 30 mins of the pain unlike 35hrs of the pain,much respect to all mothers out there!
You are such a great story teller...all through the contraction/pain part i was getting all nauseous coz pain(or the thought of it) and vomiting are best friends in my body :D then all of a sudden at 19:13 you totally change the narration and i'm now all teary because the baby was out!!Sigh!Congratulations Sharon!!! and Thanks for sharing!
Watching this video with the biggest grin on my face. What a beautiful story. The nurses sounded so helpful and nice. Do you mind sharing deets of the hospital. Congratulations!!
Sharon, you have "All the Bright Places"!!!...my favorite book :). On that note, can you do a 'My favorite books recommendation' video...pretty please. Btw, great video as always. my comment is definitely misplaced.
Oh wow, the whole time I was just watching then I heard Naila cry and just had this warm smile on my face and balancing tears. Bless you and the family 👪
Well done Mama! Pretending not to have contractions cracked me up 😂 tones of similarities with my labor story especially when the pediatrician is the only voice of reason as you are being bombarded with a million instructions! Recording of baby’s first cry was the cutest ♥️
Walking is really amazing! I had similar experiences, my daughter was born within 2 hrs of first( I though they were not 😂) contractions! Even my Dr still doesn't know how I was in labour , and not in pain! Beautiful birthing story Sharon 😍😍😍
That is so sweet! Seems like you also had a rebirth. I think it's a beautiful gift that your daughter gave to you. She empowered you. & thank you for sharing that with all of us. I will definitely think twice about what I let into my mind and body. Thanks so much. Much love ❤️
This took me back to May 21st 2016, when I gave birth. These are memories that you want to forget but nope you have a baby to remind you. I was induced after 16hrs of labour... Then the placenta got stuck and doc had to pull it out... Arrrggghhh congratulations Sharon and Ariah is a beautiful name and yes our bodies were made for this...
Wooow! am soo grateful Sharon for sharing your experience...i totally relate..giving birth to my son n the whole experience turned me into this bold,daring,brave...i cnt xplain...its the best gift in my life...lets goo Girlpower😎😎
So, Sharon, today you completely floored me. I laughed n cried with you. I can relate on so many levels. I just brought my LO home and maaaan, labour is another story. And true, that shit about 2 contractions in 30minutes taught during lamaze, Issa lie!!! I was experiencing 10minutes' long contractions spaced at 3-4mins. Thank God at 6cms I was given some shot. I don't know what it was but it made those 3 minutes of rest feel like an hour. I was kinda high but felt every contraction. But hearing your baby cry is the best feeling ever. I should have thought about pranking the Doc eeh? But I just wanted to be done with. Congrats Mama Naila. You are a Rock star!!!!
I had a meaner experience but had the best doctors and nurses in the world. To the mums to be, most important piece of advice I was told, "the pain will be bad, but it will end and you will get your baby. Focus on the baby, your body can do it."
I have a 14 month old buuuuut every time I listen to labor and delivery stories...I literally squeeze my feet together.luckily mine happened with best doctor coz man...child birth is a lifetime experience that words can't describe.Mine was induced and I didn't dilate to 10cm ...and I had no otherwise but go for emergency csection.my doc broke my water at 3pm and they literally were by my side till we went for csec at 10...when the baby heartbeat dropped.I think having a calm male doc made it so better ...I had epidural too.Once I heard my baby in my arms...the tears of Joy.The team of doc and nurses were so happy we took pics.
this vid gave me chills especially because i could relate to your experience. my son was born through c-sec after hours of labour due to meconium.... most scary experience of my life. I never wanted kids again. but..... 5 years later, In May this year I delivered my daughter on the 29th. I waited weeks for normal labour but I never dialated even though I had pains. I experienced Braxton hicks too... up until 41weeks I got no labour and the doctors could t wait any longer so we went for a c-sec AGAIN ..... she had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. I remember being driven to the hospital at 5am for the surgery, I was crying like a baby. the surgery took place at 11am... and when I was taken out of the ER I was shaking and crying for 45mins before i calmed down and got to rest. i love them both so much.... I'm just butted that I had to experience it at a young age.. had my son at 18 and my daughter at 23
Congratulations Sharon & what a beautiful but also funny birth & delivery story. I have 2 amazing babies who I delivered by CS( couldn't have them normally) but when I hear such stories, I always tell my body, ''I am not putting you through that, I promise''. Women are definitely 'Bosses'💪🏾
I LOVE this version of Sharon. Bold, unapologetic, not bothered about 'keeping it nice and neat'.. I want more of this. ❤❤❤
I was just talking with my friends at work today about kids and saying how I never want to have kids. I've watched a few labor and delivery stories on RUclips, and all of them have only served to reinforce my conviction. So when I clicked on this one I was expecting the same effect.

Awwwww, that first cry of hers is just a little piece of heaven. Thanks for sharing, Sharon!
omg people stop cutting onions already. 😢😢😢 This was so beautiful. Your story kept making me laugh and cry at the same time. I mean i watch that birth show "ONE BORN EVERY MINUTE" and i still have tears flowing down my face through each birth. Women are phenomenal beings. Our bodies are so magical.
Makes one appreciate their mother to the end of the world...we really are phenomenal 💪💪💪💪💪
I'm really hunched over rocking myself trying to process this story Issa big nooope from me! Any baby fever I had is GONE! But you're so right! Our bodies are amazing! You're amazing! So much respect for anyone who has given birth! Anyway..can we talk about how SNATCHED you are post baby!? Gwarn whicho boss self! ;)
"Snap out of it! Your baby needs you." It's a gift finding the right words at the right time. 💐😎
Any time I watch anything like this I sweat my heart out...I respect all moms out there.
giving birth naturally is the most beautiful thing a mother can experience. i was there 3 years ago and when i heard my daughters first cry all what i said repeatedly is "Thank you Jesus" thanks for sharing the video

Annette Ngima me too... I actually got goosebumps
The cry of the baby made me cry,we had exact experience, everything you're saying it's what I went through b4 giving birth to my little gal
Congratulations Sharon! Love that you understood that your body knows what to do. You laboured like a boss too! I hope mums are encouraged by this story. Labour requires movement. Hip movement which helps rock your pelvis. Loved that water made such a huge difference. Loved loved hearing the baby's cry! Happy for you!
Your experience makes me respect women that much more. What a beautiful storyteller and human being you're! Keep on...
I'm not usually a fan of these cos they make me so uncomfortable...but your honesty and frankness is so refreshing.

I have no idea why I find this hilarious! You're so lucky to have a natural birth, inductions are the worst. A beautiful story. Awesome mama.
Sharon, this is your best video yet- hands down! Thanks for sharing! ❤️❤️ One more thing, there's clearly an improvement in the content you share - taking the one-year break worked in your favor! Thank you Sharon!
WOW! This means so much to me so thank you Muthoni! xx
I totally agree with muthoni!! 😊
Evelita Muthoni best video, YES!
I see what you're saying. Some times time off is really what you need.
Wow!I have really been reminded of my two times in that room.A three year old & a 10months old.
Oh the journey! I thank God for the greatest gyn ever!
Congratulations.
Sharon this is so inspiring, I am 6 months pregnant and just like you I don't handle pain so well I am scared to death but after watching this I feel like it really will be okay...thank you!

You gave me the ability to go to labour courageously 😍

ikr..walahi I can't
2 Years down the line and this is still funny😅😅😅!
I love hearing birth stories. Theg are all so unique. My water actually broke 'like in the movies'. Only I was not out shopping or something. I was in my bed. The music and baby's cry at the end made this so emotional. Bless. X
Oh my God. I literally got chills when I heard that baby cry, rewinded to that part of the paed and got chills a second time. Congratulations Boss-mama on bringing baby Aria safely into the world.
When I heard youre babys first cry I teared ,how sweet the sound .....am 35 weeks pregnant, I will try remember to record her first cry.You actually have given me confidence about giving birth , just like the pediatrician said am going to suck it up for my baby.keep up the vlogging.....and am suggesting please if you could do a video of the must have items and the not sooo useful things you bought and also another on how you coped with baby the first weeks.Bless you!
This is so beautiful thanks for sharing, a few common things there like when the Doc ruptured your water and the warmth that followed made me remember 5 years ago when i delivered my daughter, Janelle.
@This Is Ess funny that I’m watching this today, 08 May, on her birthday. Happy Birthday to your sweet little blessing Aria. Well done for being a mom, and Happy Mother’s Day for Sunday. You are doing great. Stay blessed.
I have been waiting all week for your video. You are brave for sharing, my labour was very confusing and involved a lot of dancing, my birth story was all kinds of gross and beautiful at the same time and the stitching part was.... no words to describe it. But I still want to do it again, at least two or three more times.
Wooooooooowww!This is such a beautiful story.I kid you not i literally teared up listening to Naila's first cry.
Congratulations Sharon :)
Am currently 30weeks pregnant and this video has given me a boss mama attitude. I can do this as scared as I am. Thanks dear

You'll be great, Isabel! xx
I'm 30 weeks as well!!!! haven't started thinking about delivery as yet though; trying not to scare myself
Im 30weeks too. Hoping for a grt experience. And for sure I'll share on my channel
All the best
You just made me have memories of 2012 when my girl was born... Wow, motherhood is great and so fulfilling. Life changing as well, plus hardening... Lol, I can't finish describing motherhood. Congratulations my girl Sharon!

Haha being 5 months postpartum right now I just laugh watching this.

Thank God I found a hospital that offered this and I am so glad I got an epidural. Baby no 2 and 3 def getting it also.
exactly my experience ....i love being a mother almost a year now and loving it
This reminds me so much of the delivery of my son. Its the most amazing experience. That first cry... and when they gave him to me, he went silent and was just staring at me as i cooed at him and cried in happiness. Everything that happened till that moment...was worth it!

Oh my the sound of the baby's first cry 😊😊 reminds me of 04 Feb 2017 when my baby gal was born 😍😍
Thanks Sharon.
This is really beautiful, thank you for sharing your story. For us future moms appreciate knowing beforehand what to expect and be mentally prepared.
I'm just getting to watch this......birthing is amazing (when you get to meet your little one it is worth all the gory experience). Love the narration, very captivating.
I really don't know why I'm rewatching this now. Single. And not pregnant. This is still beautiful.
That was such an incredible experience. You are a boss for sure. Can't wait to have my own experience. You made me cry when I heard the baby's cry. More life and love to you and Aria.
Am I the only one just looking and admiring your hair😍?Maa shaa Allah. Looks healthy and beautiful.
Hey Sharon, you may not remember me but I definitely remember you ...that sounds like something an old aunt would say lol
I was two years behind you in Rusinga, Your story/ experience is relatable (especially when it came to denial) and moving (cried a bit).

Congratulations!!
i cried a little when i heard the baby cry 😂 i felt like i was going through the whole labour process with her.
Congratulations Sharon!!! ❤ Thanks for staying alive through all that & sharing! I wanted to cry at some point, sending you many hugs!
Sharon, you have "All the Bright Places"!!!...my favorite book :). On that note, can you do a 'My favorite books recommendation' video...pretty please. Btw, great video as always. my comment is definitely misplaced.
Oh wow, the whole time I was just watching then I heard Naila cry and just had this warm smile on my face and balancing tears. Bless you and the family 👪
Well done Mama! Pretending not to have contractions cracked me up 😂 tones of similarities with my labor story especially when the pediatrician is the only voice of reason as you are being bombarded with a million instructions! Recording of baby’s first cry was the cutest ♥️
Yes Sharon, where was Lonina this whole time? Great video❤️
Walking is really amazing! I had similar experiences, my daughter was born within 2 hrs of first( I though they were not 😂) contractions! Even my Dr still doesn't know how I was in labour , and not in pain! Beautiful birthing story Sharon 😍😍😍

That is so sweet! Seems like you also had a rebirth. I think it's a beautiful gift that your daughter gave to you. She empowered you. & thank you for sharing that with all of us. I will definitely think twice about what I let into my mind and body. Thanks so much. Much love ❤️
This took me back to May 21st 2016, when I gave birth. These are memories that you want to forget but nope you have a baby to remind you. I was induced after 16hrs of labour... Then the placenta got stuck and doc had to pull it out... Arrrggghhh congratulations Sharon and Ariah is a beautiful name and yes our bodies were made for this...
One of the most inspiring videos I've ever watched. Congratulations and enjoy every minute of mommy-hood. There's nothing more swag.
Very emotional Sharon, I cried. Congratulations once again.
@10:37 on video...OK did the nurse manually dilate you? Ngai!!! Awesome work Sharon. I am loving the new you
Wooow! am soo grateful Sharon for sharing your experience...i totally relate..giving birth to my son n the whole experience turned me into this bold,daring,brave...i cnt xplain...its the best gift in my life...lets goo Girlpower😎😎
So, Sharon, today you completely floored me. I laughed n cried with you. I can relate on so many levels. I just brought my LO home and maaaan, labour is another story. And true, that shit about 2 contractions in 30minutes taught during lamaze, Issa lie!!! I was experiencing 10minutes' long contractions spaced at 3-4mins.
Thank God at 6cms I was given some shot. I don't know what it was but it made those 3 minutes of rest feel like an hour. I was kinda high but felt every contraction.
But hearing your baby cry is the best feeling ever. I should have thought about pranking the Doc eeh? But I just wanted to be done with.
Congrats Mama Naila.
You are a Rock star!!!!
This was such a beautiful story and video. You took me back to my delivery day. It is THE most beautiful thing ever
i just got the chills as well at 19 :12.... just from this i feel am ready thank you sharon
What an amazing experience. Had to replay a few times especial where Aria was crying for the first time! Congratulations
how you described the feeling of having your baby on your arms..is heavenily😍😍
I had a meaner experience but had the best doctors and nurses in the world. To the mums to be, most important piece of advice I was told, "the pain will be bad, but it will end and you will get your baby. Focus on the baby, your body can do it."
You're glowing Ess🌸🌞
That's because I'm truly happy with where my life is headed now!

They sound of her first cry had me welling up. Oh the miracle of birth and we share a birthday with Aria.
I have a 14 month old buuuuut every time I listen to labor and delivery stories...I literally squeeze my feet together.luckily mine happened with best doctor coz man...child birth is a lifetime experience that words can't describe.Mine was induced and I didn't dilate to 10cm ...and I had no otherwise but go for emergency csection.my doc broke my water at 3pm and they literally were by my side till we went for csec at 10...when the baby heartbeat dropped.I think having a calm male doc made it so better ...I had epidural too.Once I heard my baby in my arms...the tears of Joy.The team of doc and nurses were so happy we took pics.
this vid gave me chills especially because i could relate to your experience. my son was born through c-sec after hours of labour due to meconium.... most scary experience of my life. I never wanted kids again. but..... 5 years later, In May this year I delivered my daughter on the 29th. I waited weeks for normal labour but I never dialated even though I had pains. I experienced Braxton hicks too... up until 41weeks I got no labour and the doctors could t wait any longer so we went for a c-sec AGAIN ..... she had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. I remember being driven to the hospital at 5am for the surgery, I was crying like a baby. the surgery took place at 11am... and when I was taken out of the ER I was shaking and crying for 45mins before i calmed down and got to rest. i love them both so much.... I'm just butted that I had to experience it at a young age.. had my son at 18 and my daughter at 23
oh my the baby's cry got me,,,so adorable,,Thanks for sharing Sharon!
Congratulations Sharon & what a beautiful but also funny birth & delivery story. I have 2 amazing babies who I delivered by CS( couldn't have them normally) but when I hear such stories, I always tell my body, ''I am not putting you through that, I promise''. Women are definitely 'Bosses'💪🏾
OMG...the emotions in me right now...easily the best video ever.
