Love listening to your videos they are my favorite by far on U Tube... so fun & informative.

I LOVED this L&D story!!!! It’s all so true, real, and raw! Isn’t it funny how the anesthesiologist becomes your hero?! From animal to human, forreal!

Such a great story!! I was worried, cried, laughed and so happy at the end, congratulations on the baby blessing.

Congratulations !!! Thank you for sharing such an informative story. She is precious. Can't wait to see her w her brothers.

How are you so good at telling stories, lol.. I can sit here and listen to you all day. I'm a postpartum nurse and you literally described everything to the T!! best storytelling ever with great descriptions !! Congratulations on your baby girl :):) xoxo

I sooo appreciate you talking about your labor and delivery testimony!!! Sending you soo much love and health!💛

Almost everything you went through...exact same for me 🙋🏻‍♀️ so funny to hear you talk about it because it’s so true! Especially what the contractions felt like. Ugh. Congrats to the new addition. I’m so happy it’s a baby girl. Lol

i’m due in 12 days, my first baby. Thank you for making such an entertaining and informative video! So easy to listen and watch you! Congrats on your beautiful little girl!

You look amazing and glowing with love! So happy for you and your family. 🥰

Thank you for sharing your story momma and congrats on the birth of your beautiful baby girl!

Yesss, somebody who was loud as well! I feel so embarrassed now about how much I was screaming😂 I was 10 centimeters by the time I reached the hospital and I birthed my son with no pain meds because I was more afraid of the epidural needle than contractions, and I wanted to DIEEE. Congratulations on your third Mama! I’ve been watching you since I was pregnant with my son and you just had Preston. I can’t wait until I’m pregnant with my second. So happy for you and your family 💕

Congrats on your baby girl! Loved and enjoyed your labor story! You are a Super mom!

I’m a labor and delivery nurse and I’m so thankful for your story! Usually how it goes and it’s great you’re sharing your experiences

Thank you for sharing! I’m due end of April and I’m terrified of giving birth as this will be my first! So happy that you delivered a healthy babe. That’s all I want for my baby girl too no matter how she gets here 🤗

Hi Ellen, I love your labor and delivery story. Straight honesty. Congratulations to you and your family 😊

Thank you for sharing your story. I adore the idea of a golden hour ✨✨✨ even though you didn't get to fully enjoy it because of how fast everything went. I'm almost half way through my first pregnancy. Also you're glowing mama 😍😍😍

In love with this story, made me laugh as well made me think when I had my first son. Now to wait for my second one to be born to go over once again the labor. Beautiful as always!

Awesome video and congrats

💖💖Congratulations hun she’s beautiful just like her mama💖💖

Congratulations on babygirl💕! You look AMAZING!!! I actually had a similar experience I fell during my pregnancy and my water broke two weeks later... so my baby was a preemie.

Thanks for sharing this it is so similar to my birth of baby girl too... everything happened so fast. Hubby had to drop my son off at a friend’s house real quick and my daughter popped out so fast the midwife caught her in time! So fast!!!!! Hahaha congrats on your baby girl! How wonderful... you’re such a beautiful mommy!

I was 9cm when i got to the hospital with my 2nd so yes everything happens so fast.i didnt even have time for an epidural and felt every little pain:(.Our bodies do amazing things!congrats

Congratulations to the entire family. Happy to see you both recovered well..... One question. Did you go back and get the bubble tea?

Such a good video!

congratulations again! I had the "golden hour" on my first delivery, it was so hard because I was so sleep deprived. I'm also very sensitive to medication, they pushed me to the OR after the epidural because my BP was too low, luckily it came backup after their reduce it to the very very minimum, so I'm going to try my best to skip epidural this time. I can't wait to meet my baby! I'm so happy for you guys :)

Hey LV! Congratulations on your beautiful girl! When I had my daughter I had her in three hours. I woke up at 6 am with bad contractions and went to the hospital by 7 am. I was in so much pain by the time I asked for a epidural the nurses told me honey your 9 cm it’s go time! Lol by 8:30 am by baby girl was born.

Congratulations ♥️ I just gave birth on Valentine’s Day to a baby girl, too!

This is the best!!! You look beautiful ❤️ I TOTALLY understand what mean talking about those contractions... I had something similar happen with my first baby. My husband wasn’t at home so I was I’m so much pain and called an Uber 🤣 poor guy he was so stressed driving me to the hospital, it was only 10 minutes from my house. As soon as I walk in I was at 6cm, like what you said I can’t think straight at that point. Our body is amazing isn’t it? 😁

Thank you for sharing your story💕 im 16 w pregnant. 2nd baby.

You’re absolutely beautiful!🤎

You are a goddess!! Wishing you all the best. Seeing her makes me so emotional because I am 8 weeks pregnant and I am thinking it could be a girl 🤞🏽

Oh girl my experience with my second baby was so crazy! The epidural failed I’m pretty sure and I felt everything as she was coming out, but she did come out really fast and in two pushes! I’m pregnant with my 3rd and I feel like he is going to come fast as well! Labor is no joke

Such a great birth story my son is 10 months, it was pretty traumatic I was pushing for 3 1/2 hours and I know I want more kids but I’m scared more about labor even more now that I know what happens than when you don’t know what happens.

Congrats on your baby🥰how long did it take for your milk to come in?

I love your hair 😍😍😍

Hi I love your channel I feel like I can relate our kids are almost the same age. We happen to be pregnant around the same time. I just had my 3rd in the 1-6-2020 I can feel the same I was in labor for 3 hours and I could say third time it’s was really painful worst than the other two. I would’ve gotten the epidural but I couldn’t due to low platelet I wasn’t allowed. But congrats on your babygirl. And it’s funny how you describe the pain this is the video not to watch for those first time mommies. Lol

Am I the only one that noticed this was filmed 3x. Whatever, still an awesome video and your absolutely gorgeous!

During my pregnancy, I followed your vlog especially on baby stuff and how to take care.of my baby. My baby is already almost 4 months now

Labor pain is NO joke! I was glad I got the epidural!

I feel ya. When I was in labor with my baby, I had something like an epidural since I was getting tired from the labor. I hated hearing my baby daddy’s voice cause my mind was kinda is telling him that he should be the one experiencing all the pain. I was awful. Thankfully, the nurse beside me looked like an angel and that kept me calm through the labor pain.

Zarah Manalang the nurses are so kind!

Memories.. I was in labor for almost 3 days and was pushing for about 4hrs .. he just did not want to come out

Same!! Baby came in 10 minutes once I arrived to the hospital. I went from doing laundry to barely getting to the hospital and my water broke at triage, I was 9cm when I arrived at the hospital. It was hectic all the nurses were working so fast! Lol...

Omg your explanation of the contraction terrifies me!! 😫 But I bet it was well worth it because Sophia is so precious!! 😍

This made me laugh, I have 2 boys and 1 girl as well. I’m glad you got to experience the ugly side of labor and delivery, definitely a life changing experience, but beyond worth it

Congratulation for your addition a baby girl. She's so cute. She's look like her older brother Preston.

Giiiirl. I got induced and 4 hours in my water broke, an hour later I wanted an epidural .... and during the epidural I dilated to ten and right after he got the epidural in I had to push. NOT the epidural birth I wanted. Felt it alllllllll.

What lipstick color r u wearing here? So pretty!

I love love LOVE her name💗💗

She looks like Preston. Az loves you 💕💕💕💕

OMG! I’m on my 8th month and I can imagine the pain already 😂 I got this! Whew 😅 oh Lord!

I had a similar birth story with my latest daughter who is almost 2yrs old now. She came out in 3 pushes, as she had her head wrapped around the umbilical cord. She was out so quick compared to my first son, which I was in labor for 12hrs 😥. I was supposed to get induced the next morning also and she decided to come out the night before. I was in pain even after the epidural was given to me, but it was all worth it when I saw her face 😍🥰

Linh Mai they say the more kids you have, the faster they come out!

Congratttsssss to a healthy baby girl! Hahaha my nipples got tender when you said she was feeding every hour... good luck you hot mama 💞

How do u find time for self care and make up? I have a baby 20 day s and I'm dying for some time and rest for myself.. Even when she's sleeping i feel so tired

Awesome mommy!!!

I just watched ambers birken bag video maybe 3 minutes ago, saw ur comment, and here we are! The same thing happened with my son. But I went in for my check and there was NO fluid! But I wasn't in labor. Got induced and had my son in 6 minutes lol! He was perfect!

My labor was 4 hours long from start to finish and I couldn't get an epidural because I was only 2cm dilated when my water broke (full on waterworks, i was completely ruptured) and I was getting contractions every two minutes for a minute long so I didn't get a chance to catch my breath either. I ended up getting very very dizzy and nauseous because I kept holding my breath when it came on because it wasn't a slow onset of contractions every time it hit, it was just BAM BAM BAM. I was in triage for less than an hr and then was moved into the labor room, I dilated to 9cm less than an hr later so they told me to prepare to push. At 10cm I started pushing and she was born 4 minutes later. They put her on my chest but I was in so much pain because they were pressing on my belly to extract the placenta and then went in to stitch me up because I tore since I pushed her out so fast (i had 2nd degree tears where nothing external tore but the vaginal muscles inside did). The entire time she was on my chest and I didn't bond with her either. It wasn't until 8 to 9 months after birth that I finally "bonded" with her. I didn't have that immediate connection with my kid either so I can relate. Perhaps it was because I was a little angry at how my labor went?

Literally just gave birth 9 days ago with my 2nd baby& my delivery was only 20mins! Almost similar situation!! 😅☺️

OMG I just recently had a very dramatic birth as well! I almost had my second in the freaking car! I also had my first induced and had no idea what contractions would feel like when they came on naturally. But they came.. and they went from 0 to 100 reallll quick. In less than an hour, I was having contractions every 3-5 SECONDS. We rushed to the hospital and I couldn't even take a step so I was immediately in a wheelchair, couldn't breathe, couldn't talk.. as soon as I went in they checked me before even hooking me up and they were like, you're fully dilated! They just wheeled that bed right out and into a delivery room. I also have a super high pain tolerance and this was the first time in my entire 35 years of life that I screamed bloody murderrr begging for an epidural. At 10 cm.. you just feel like you're going to DIE. Miraculously they were able to give me an epidural and they told me it usually takes 10 minutes to work. It worked immediately for me thank god so as soon as I got it, my legs started to feel warm and I no longer felt the pain. The nurse checked me as soon as I was laying back down and was like she's ready to push! So.. my second was out in 2 pushes (only because they paused me midway to unwrap the cord around the neck) and my total pushing time was 1 minute! So I totally get what you mean when you felt like.. what just happened?! But let me tell you... you said you might not have the strength to push.. while getting the epidural, I could feel my body start pushing the baby out without me having to do anything physically. I think our bodies are designed to be able to do it no matter how tired you are! I think I could have had the baby naturally. I was already in enough pain to think I was going to die soon. But I was totally way more scared about feeling the stitches! 😆 Anyway congratulations on your beautiful princess!!! Can't wait for videos of your new life with 3 kids!!

hahahaha baby daddy needs to chill lmao!!!! great video!

I have my second son less than 2 hrs and it happen so fast that the nurse didn't had time to put IV in me so pretty much I went all naturally with him. After giving birth to him I feel like I can still push another one out lol he is now 9yrs old and very independent

Lollll “I was possessed”congrats, I give birth 8 days ago to a baby girl I wanted natural birth but I was 41 weeks and nothing was happening , so I was schedule to be induced, thought I was going to push but baby was wrapped around umbilical cord and I had to do a c-section everything I planned didn’t go as plan but I’m happy my baby is here hopefully one day I’ll experience a natural birth one day cause I might have to do c-section for every other birth. However congrats ❤️🤱🏽.

My second pregnancy with my daughter was the fastest ever! I was that screaming crazy woman begging for an epidural!! I went in 8cm dialated!! Thank god I didn’t have her in the car! Unfortunately nurses kept lying to me sayin my epidural was coming when I knew it was too late! They literally barely had time to hook up the IV and I was already pushing! I checked in the hospital at 12:30am my baby was born 12:48am!!! Everything happen so fast! And YES I felt every stitch after!!!! I was in shock too it happened way too Fast I had a “precipitous labor”. Now pregnant with my 3rd hoping to make it to the hospital sooner this time around! Hopefully Unmedicated again. But then again Epidural with my first pregnancy was a lifesaver!!

Girl you make me laugh!! Congratulations to you and your family❣️ I was blessed with 3 daughter's and 1 son (in that order) unfortunately I had all of them c sections.

wow.. i had my 2nd baby fast as well. i was in my OBs clinic for check and I was 6cm at 11:30am. I delivered him an hour after without any epidural.😂😊

I don’t get it! So was your first 2 birth natural??

Oh my goodness what a whirlwind! I've only had one baby girl and my first labor was 7 hours! Everything happened so quickly and I also didn't get that "break" between contractions I had heard about. It wasn't a wave it was a tsunami! I have a heart condition so I needed an epidural but things were happening so quickly the epidural barely had time to start working. The nurses left me after the epidural and were saying "ok, get some rest." I called them back in after 15 min because I could feel that she had moved down with two really powerful contractions that came one after the other. I went from 6.5cm dilated to "a lip" in 15 min after the epidural was placed. When the nurse came back in you could tell she was slightly disbelieving when I said I needed to push. She checked me and when I was at a lip she got my midwife and I pushed her out in 30 min.

congrats again on babygirl! and if anyone asks me how contractions feel thats also exactly how i felt!
