Our daughter just turned 14. the birth was in a hospital, but both my wife and I had the luxury of giving birth in a family room, which may be surprising in Poland - but 14 years ago, LGBT couples, contrary to appearances, had it easier than now. the birth lasted 4 hours. from the beginning to the end. From 1 cm to 8 cm dilated it took less than 30 minutes. Currently, my little one is 178 cm tall and is a beautiful teenager. I have been keeping my fingers crossed for you from the very beginning and I am glad that the boy is happy in the world. Regards.

Not all men are incompetent. My husband was the one doing all the research and attending birth classes with me. Our doula guided him so that he could be the support person I needed. My birth went the entire other direction. A home birth turned unplanned c section. For all 46 hours of it, my husband was there. Even at the worst when we had to make the decision to do a c section. He cried with me and assured me that everything would be ok and that I was strong. He did skin to skin with our son in the OR because I was unable to. He made sure the surgical team & nurses could accommodate as much of my birth plan as possible. He was present for all the routine things they did for our son. He made sure to keep being my cheerleader.

I was dialating. But she was not coming down. She was not giving up her warm waterbed without a fight. I told the doctor turn off ALL the medication right now. And I will get her down! He thought I was crazy so did the nurses. But he did agree to give me 1 hour. And then they would be rushing me back if it didnt work. Ur mind go into this bubble during labor, no on else matters, just baby and u. One soul, becoming Two. It was a happy ending!

My first one, was a c section and wasn’t very bad since I was asleep. Second was a VBAC and the hospital staff was so fuckin terrible. They didn’t listen to ANYTHING I said or ANYTHING I wanted. On like day 3 of my stay after I had my son, they started to be so rude to me.

​@@CiinaBunniiHonestly depends on your country. I am in the Netherlands and the ambulances are so close that it doesn't matter since the time you wait till the child doctor is awake is around the same time you wait till the ambulance is there. My sister had a "bad birth" at home, there was an ambulance downstairs because they were already warned. When the baby arrived and was pale (it took her long to deliver after she was allowed to push) there came two/three other ambulances and an ambulance helicopter. But since there already was an ambulance, they just put him on the pump and was fine within a small period of time, they took him to the hospital to let the children doctor check him and he could go home after that.

This video radiates so much love.

Let me tell you hunny, I've had 4 c.sections and every single one of them was a long recovery and it bloody hurts. And with those you stay in hospital for 2/4 days A natural labour is a few hours in the hospital and your home. Let's not forget the saggy skin after each c.section. Plus The hospital won't let you have natural labour after your first c.section because there's more of a chance your tummy could rupture from the inside due to having layers of skin being cut the first time round. These are just factors that you would need to consider. Xx

I feel like you do such a good job of showing mother hood with protecting the privacy of your son, moms still need a sense of community. I’m not a parent but from what I see it’s really hard. Capturing how hard it is but still respecting your child’s privacy is a difficult balance , you guys do it so beautifully . All family vloggers should take note.

My partner and I have absolutely no plans of ever becoming parents, but I was absolutely glued to the screen watching this. Sending love to you both ❤

This was the perfect mix of realness and positivity that anyone preparing to give birth should see. Done it twice myself and resonated so much with much said. Everyone definitely needs to remember that there’s a spectrum of experiences and baby can be born early, late, labour can be quick or slow. It’ll never go quite as you planned but it will go as it was meant to. Congratulations to the beautiful parents and what a lucky little boy.

I remember when I had my home birth. I was in labor for three hours. I stood in the hall, felt my son drop into my pelvis, and looked at my midwife and said “he’s moving down”. She just smiled and replied “amazing. Let’s have a baby,” and it was go time. Crawled up on my couch and pushed him out on all fours like a bear, a primal animal. It was great! Edit: didn’t expect so many likes. That was five years ago, and my son is now a little boy, a full child. It’s wild looking back at that moment as my child plays Roblox while my husband and I watch tv. If it weren’t for the economy, I’d have another baby, and hopefully be able to do it at home again.

Also, I did NOT expect to have a precipitous labor, and oh my god it was so dang painful. The contractions were so strong and powerful out of nowhere it was like I couldn’t adjust to the pain and before I knew it, I was pushing. Sometimes, a fast labor isn’t better- it can be jarring. Luckily I had a very open mind going into the experience. The recovery was fast. I did not require stitches. I was very active and on my feet and driving very soon afterwards, which was cool. I will say it was weird to suddenly have a baby in the house. Like, one second I was pregnant then the next I had my baby in my arms, and that night was a trip lol. My husband and I were both elated and lost 😂 I worked out heavily my entire pregnancy. Weight lifting, jogging, and cross country hiking. Swimming. I think it helped.

The way Julie looks at Camila as she speaks🥲💕❤️❤️❤️ I’m happy you guys are finally parents!! You both deserve this

As a straight girl that does not want to have children, this was the most beautiful video I have seen ❤ the love of you both and the harmony. Such an amazing couple

“It was like a song.” You two are so connected. That was amazing. What a beautiful experience. I am so happy for you both! Welcome to the world, little one.

The change in Julie is unbelievable. Julie looks so calm, serene even, over the top confident in herself and her abilities to be a great Mother! Thank you for sharing your journey with us it was fun, sad, you had us rooting for you all along the way, and everything in between. I officially welcome to the club, the club that only Mothers can join, where everything you've ever wanted for yourself has now flown out the window and from that day forward you will give this tiny human everything because HE now comes first. The extra bonus once you've joined the club... only Mothers know REAL love, a love you could never explain to someone who hasn't had a child, this goes for you too Camilla ❤

This is the first positive/strong birth story I've ever heard. People make it out to be such a nightmare. I don't want kids but my heart swells with joy for you guys!

I'm 32 and really scared of ever being pregnant and giving birth, but my husband and I really want children. You really eased by anxiety A LOT. Thank you for that 🥰

@@ttrblmkr That is a narrow viewpoint. If you're American, look into reproductive rights. Thankfully, I'm not. But many people don't have kids and think...I'm gonna abuse them. There's generational trauma, mental illness, and so much more. I'd even wager that many abusive parents live their kids.

Baby boy is so lucky to have two amazing and supportive mothers! Coming from a teen bisexual with only semi-supportive parents… I’m so happy for you guys. I’m not sure if I want kids because I don’t want to continue the cycle of emotional abuse (Asian parents gang) but I can tell how much you two love each other and that gives me hope maybe I’ll find a loving partner who I’ll be able to break the cycle with. Love you guys 🏳‍🌈💖

camilla and julie- i’ve been following your journey and social media for two years. words can’t describe how much your videos have helped me through hard times. especially knowing how happy you two are. it’s really inspiring. it’s given me hope for my future as an 18 year old lesbian. thank you for giving me hope in my future. thank you so much for sharing your ivf, pregnancy, and birthing story with us. you guys will be amazing parents. even when you think you’re not doing enough, i assure you, you are. hearing how camilla felt like a bad birthing partner made me sad. especially since she did a lot more than some birthing partners. you both did so so amazing. i hope one day i have the same. thank you for giving me hope.

As a disabled lesbian who wants to be a mama one day, it gives me such joy and peace to hear you guys talk frankly and positively about this experience. It makes me feel like the future I want for myself is possible. Thank you for your commitment to keeping your son safe and his privacy intact. ❤️

I am not someone who wants or plans to have kids, and I could never understand why people would want them. But with this video, I think I sort of get it. I feel like there truly is still some good and kindness left in the world when you guys talk. I hearing how you overcome difficulty together makes me feel less scared of things that I must do. Thank you for sharing this part of your life, and I hope both of you and your baby remain healthy and happy.

It’s so relieving that your birth experience was positive, especially after everything you two went through to get here. The heart ache was hard but now baby boy is here and now the joy begins!! Take all the time and rest you need, being new parents is so hard!

I haven’t finished watching yet but it brought me such joy and relief when she talked about letting go of what other people thought and just doing whatever felt natural. I’ve given birth twice and it’s such a relief to give into that “animalistic” part of yourself and let your body lead. Most of the time, your body knows what to do and it doesn’t care about social convention or awkwardness, so just let it do it’s thing ❤️

Same!! I’m rooting for them so hard

That sums up having kids perfectly "i didnt get to do anything i had planned"

Little story here: I think we gave birth at around the same time, not exact obviously but just around the dates. I’m a first time mum too! And whilst I was having painful contractions I was convincing myself I was broken or smthing, yet I was in tears, my mother also tried to trick me into thinking it wasn’t contractions. My water broke at 1pm and contractions started at 2pm but I had very very light back pain in the morning. Since contractions started at 2 I mean it was slight cramps at first, bare in mind by 4:50 my bags are in my mums car, she asks me to go downstairs I’m singing songs to myself to stop myself from crying. We’re driving to a hospital in central London, I’m howling in the car singing to myself over and over, howling because the gps showed a “short cut” to get there, it was speed bump roads…. My mum crying with apologies on every bump whilst I’m howling but singing but trying to keep my mouth shut all at the same time, anyways gps fucked up again, we got taken to the wrong side of the bridge over the themes. I was crying so much and then the traffic got stopped because a bunch of tourists were crossing the road. My mum was so in pain from my sounds she came out the car to ask the police to give us an escort they were nice enough one jumped into the car said he will drive as fast as possible, following the police van in front that cleared the road for us, getting there the police were so kind they snatched a random wheel chair and said they’ll take me to the 7th floor for labour. They get me to the reception, midwives say to the officers, she’s not in labour, we’re used to ladies howling like this and they are not in active labour with no opening, the police had a go at them asked them to check me, I got taken into a room, a midwife tells me to just pee maybe I have an infection I said I can’t pee I can’t sit down for gods sake, she tells me to get on the bed I say I can’t do this give me something please even though I promised myself I’ll have this birth completely naturally with no medication. She checked me, she was like you’re 10 cm in complete shock she tells me to get back on the wheelchair taking me to another room, another midwife then brings gas and air into the other room and I was in so much pain, I threw it off the bed, I got told to lay down, there was only one midwife now, she was panicking didn’t expect it to be this quick, she said call the doctor to someone outside, seconds later I started instinctively pushing myself, my mum made it to the room 3 pushes later, and helping to hold my legs opened, I pushed very quick, it took me maybe 10 mins to push, I got him out finally. My baby came out 4.7kg I was ripped the doctor only came after examining my bone, saying this is 4th degree. I was sent to the surgery room to get stitches, numbed half of my body and couldn’t move for hours and hours, until the numbness went away, next morning, I was happy and in love to have been holding my baby on my chest and seeing Big Ben and the river outside of my window with a beautiful sunset, my boy was born like a prince, he’s healthy and beautiful and I’d do it all over again for him ❤

So I grew up assisting in home births with my hippy mom. And I want to say that it's a testimate to your exercise and lifting regimes that you had such an healthy birth. I am so proud of you for keeping with your own convictions and deciding to listen to your own body throughout! What a wonderful example for others ❤

idk why but "its like we were singing together" made me want to bawl. Thats what this beautiful baby is, a song you get to compose together and he's going to be a whole symphony. Insanely gorgeous family all around 😭💖

Being relaxed makes birth MUCH quicker. I'm so glad you two had each other and everyone involved and everything that you needed ❤

First time birthing is so incredibly scary. You truly cannot prepare enough or inform yourself enough for ur first birth. So many unexpected things can happen. It’s not ur fault for beating yourself up during ur birth it was ur first birth and I think you did AMAZING! ❤
