watching you is making me feel so much better about being a first time mom at 36, thankfully everything turned out okay for you guys! He is so cute!
Wow, you deserve a medal for bravery, courage, strength, resilience, and all other noble traits. I salute you. May your heart be filled with joy and head with comfort and peace. What a beautiful baby. He is blessed to have such an amazing mother. Bravo to you!
That is a super kind comment! Thank you so much x
You are an amazing mama!!!
So calm going through all of that!!
CONGRATULATIONS on your sweet New Baby!! A beautiful name!!
Thank you Shannon x
All that waiting in the hospital would have sent my anxiety through the roof even without all the intervention. I take my hat off to you with how calmly you can talk about what you went through. I'm so glad you and baby are fine and can put it behind you now.. Ps william is a lovely classy traditional name xfrom Victoria x
It was very challenging to stay patient when they were taking so long to discharge me but I’ve kind of got used to it over the years 😏
I’m glad you like his name 🥰
I hope you’re enjoying your newborn too xx
@@largefamilymama i am. I'm tired though he's a night owl 😂 x
I love your channel. I just found it. I had a prolapsed cord with my twins, and it really is a medical emergency that if could be avoided, should be! Luckily I got taken care of right away and have healthy, thriving twins. Five years later and I just had an unmedicated VBAC. I also just turned 36, and surprisingly my family doesn't feel complete yet. You being pregnant at 44 and having a healthy child is amazing. I feel like possibly trying for a fourth and final child in another year after I turn 37 and your story reminds me not to give into the fear mongering should we decide to expand one more time. The journey to conceiving can be long and full of ups and downs as it took awhile to conceive our third child and there was heartbreak involved, but it is so well worth it in the end! Congrats on your 9th. You have a beautiful family.
You’re right, it is worth it in the end. I hope your plan works out for you 💖
My midwife has 12 children (1 at home with a midwife and 11 of them unassisted home births) and her last is 1 years old and she had him at 45. She may conceive again. We must NOT be afraid of bearing children and trusting our bodies.
I feel absolutely inspired... love to all the kids ... I have 2 kids dream to have two more doing all the needful..
I will be 40 in oct feeling hopeful watch you and thankyou for sharing your experience..
Good luck 💖
Thank you for sharing! William is beautiful and so are you! I’m so sorry your delivery wasn’t what you’d hoped for, and for the disappointment you experienced
Thank you Rachelle, that’s very kind of you xx
Thank you for sharing your incredible story. It’s made me feel so positive 😊
You poor thing that sounded horrific! Both my labours have been traumatic I had to have the vontouse and stitches with my first. And they wanted to induce me with my twins but I saw my sister get induced with her baby and it was horrible to even watch so I ended up going for elective c section which also ended up with problems I lost far too much blood and was dipping in and out of consciousness I dont remember alot of it but I remember there was loads and loads of people in the room for what felt like an eternity and one of my little boys wasnt breathing properly and was taken to special care baby unit. It was all really scary but after 3 days both babies were together and healthy we had to stay in hospital for ages and they both needed jaundice treatment but once we came home we all thrived and everything was finally fine.
I'm really glad to see your both healthy and on the mend again :) congratulations his name is beautiful xxx
Oh Jordan, I’m so sorry to hear you went through those experiences xxx
Such a strong and resilient woman you are!
Thank you
Congratulations. He’s beautiful god bless him eternally
Thank you so much x
I had an emergency csection with my twin boys after going into labour - I remember sitting on the table having a contraction and having to sit still so she could put the needle in. The things we do! William is gorgeous. I have a William, it’s my favourite boys name.
William’s such a lovely name 😊
Wow what a birth story to tell!! Congratulations on your beautiful baby boy xxx
Thank you so much x
Thanks for sharing! And I’m sorry to hear that your experience was not an easy one and that you’re going through a hard recovery. I wish you and your family a lot of grace and that this will be turned into love.
I think your story really shows a lot of the fears I also have about hospitals and medical interventions and just the way doctors often talk to us and make us fearful and disempowered.
I hope everything went well with your little ones kidneys. Will stay tuned!
Thank you. It certainly wasn’t the easiest of times!!
We will find out more regarding his kidneys next month when we see the consultant.
He’s so cute aww! 🥺💘
You have the cutest baby brother 🥰
So glad you and the baby are ok! I have been wondering how everything went for you for so long. William is such a cutie xx
Sorry I left it so long to make this video, I’m glad to be back 😁
Such a strong mama. You are amazing. Thank you for your vudeo
Thank you for your lovely comment x
What a beautiful boy!
It's an intense birth story. I thought it was going to end in a c section. Glad that didn't need to happen for you, and that he started breathing. I know this is a great old, but still... Congratulations
Thank you so much!
I'm so glad you are both well and things turned out beautifully ❤️ My first borns placenta shot out too 😅 it was an experience! He is absolutely beautiful. Well done Mumma xx much love to you all xx
Thank you!!
It’s quite a shock when the placenta does that 😬 xx
Congratulations. Good to hear that your both OK now. What a long and hard labour you had. Such a beautiful boy.Have you watched A tribe of many, your birth stories are very similar. They also have a large family. Look forward to your next video. X
Thanks Angie!
I hadn’t seen that until I read your comment and yes, oh my goodness, it’s strange how similar our birth stories are!! Xx
Ah congrats he is beautiful xx u had rough ride and pregnancy but my he's worth it my love xx take it easy and hope u daughter doing well too x
Oh yes, he is so worth it 🥰
Congratulations, first and foremost! Though I dread to hear the second part. Poor you Alex, but you've done it! Wishing you all happiness and healing here on in X
Thank you! I’m not feeling sorry for myself, I’m just so thankful to be able to have another baby, I didn’t think it would be possible at my age x
Congratulations. He is lovely. Well done x
Thank you Jo x
Congratulations!
Thank you
Wow. Anything that could happen happened hey? Wow. It sounds hard to get through and so different from what you wanted and what I would have wanted but you did it. Well done. William is so beautiful. I have fond memories of all my births, even the ones that weren't the way I would've hoped. I look forward to hearing about your postpartum time. Lots of love❤.
Thank you Sarah xx
That sounded horrific. Glad everything is OK now. Another amazing miracle performed! Little William looks so perfect.
Thanks Liz, he’s definitely perfect to me, my little sweetheart 🥰 xx
You are really strong
Thank you!!
oh, my goodness, I am so sorry to hear how challenging and uncomfortable your labor was. It really reminds me of one of my own emergency inductions, right to the point of baby being born sunny side up. Bless you, dear. I am so pleased to see little William safe and sound and so lovely
Thanks Lily, I’m glad that parts over and I now get to enjoy my cute baby boy ☺️
William is adorable! Wow what a hard time you had!
Isn’t he! 🥰
I'm laughing at the placenta part. 😂
We just had our first son, after 5 girls, 6 days ago. I had an unmedicated labor with pitocin. Oh my my, worst pain of my life! I didnt expect it to be that bad but had to go along with it because I was already at 10CM and ready to push. I wasn't on pitocin but maybe 15 minutes before I was ready to push. My baby boy was my 2nd lightest baby too. He was 7 lbs. 4.5 ounces. My smallest baby (girl) was 6 lbs. 14 ounces. My baby boy is 6 lbs. 13 ounces right now. But he will gain it back with me exclusively breastfeeding. He spent 2 days in NICU so I wasnt able to nurse like I wanted to. But now that we are home I can cluster feed.
Congratulations! Soak in those precious baby days 💖
Are you a patchwork family or are all 8 children yours? That's sooo many. I hope I will have a big family too one day!:)
No we’re not a patchwork family, just a big old fashioned traditional family.
Congrats!
Thank you 😁
I hate people telling me to breathe while I’m labour 😬 I’m pretty sure I’ll be blue if I wasn’t blinking breathing 😂. I’m so so pleased that all went well in the end and don’t feel disappointed that it wasn’t how you had planned, I suffered from ptsd after one of my births because I got so hung up on the fact it wasn’t how I had planned. He is absolutely gorgeous and such a perfect name Xxx
I can understand the ptsd thing, it can be such a let down when things don’t go to plan. I’m at peace with it now and just happy to move forward 😊
@@largefamilymama I’m so relieved to hear that, take care and massive congratulations again ❤️. I have 8 weeks left till my section I’ve never had an epidural or spinal before so I’m incredibly anxious about that. Xxx
Wow you are so brave.
Thank you
arrh congrats to you both ! xx
Thank you so much 😊
Did you concieve naturally?
Congrats! Job well done mama! How are babies kidneys?
Thank you. We will find out more when we see the consultant next month.
Mama you were in prodromal labor 🥺
I think so!
congratulations to you all xx
Thank you so much xx
Hello William 💖 your birth sounded like my daughter with her first baby her womb collapsed on the baby and the midwife at to pull the baby out there was blood everywhere but both mum and baby where okay in the end I have been thinking about you so nice to see you and adorable William take care 💞💐🎉
Your poor daughter, that must’ve been awful xx
Congratulations what a cutie hes gorgeous ,what trauma you had all worth it though love ,
Thank you Carole! Yes totally worth it 🥰
I never understood induced labour and the pain is soo bad unbearable compared to natural labour I thought I was going to die that's how bad it was
I know what you mean, it’s flipping agony 😬
Ps jeremiah was my second lightest too xx
So many similarities!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
😊♥️
Pitocin contractions are horrific as well as the process of being induced. My epidural Pitocin labor was more painful than my natural labor. It took me 18 hours for induction and it could have ended in c section which I didn’t realize at the time. It also caused stress to my baby. You were probably just having prodromal labor and would have had a wonderful home birth without any interventions if you had been left alone. So sorry you had to go through this. I am so thankful you and your husband felt calm. It is much best to stay calm.
Im sorry to hear about your experience! So brave. Thank god for modern medicine, we must never forget the dangers on unassisted pregnancy and birth
I think unassisted birthing is natural and shouldn’t be something to fear.
@@largefamilymamaI agree. I am FAR more concerned with modern medicine!
🙏🙏🙏💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏
