  • It's FINALLY HERE! The birth of our son, Orion is officially here.
    There is only so much that can be shared without talking all the way through a birth vlog, SO I'm linking my 2 podcast episodes where I chronicle everything in greater detail.

    When I tell you I’m a birth vlog addict, I’m not kidding. This has got to be the best one yet. The love, support and care you had was amazing! You can tell how prepared you BOTH were. Just amazing.

      I wish I could tell you and you’d understand how much I know EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I watched hundreds, maybe thousands of hours of birth vlogs during my pregnancy! I freaking get it!!! And I just want to say WOW. What a beautiful, incredible, generous thing to share with us! I’m sooo glad you loved it and enjoyed it - the ups, the downs, the humor, the raw and realness, and the end result…. Happy mom, healthy baby 💗💗🙏🏻 THANK YOU SOO MUCH for taking the time to share this with us, and for watching and subscribing to follow along little snippets of our life! It means the world to Bren and I! Thank you Helen! You’re amazing!! 💗✨🙏🏻😍

    I’m due any day with my second baby (first son). We’ve lost 4 babies between my firstborn and now. I feel like I’ve been pregnant for years trying to have this one. We lost a son at 24 weeks back in 2018 and then 3 miscarriages after that. Last year around this time I decided that 2022 would be the year I finally brought my son earthside (always knew I was meant to have a son), and so I took your Epically Aligned course and decided I was going to manifest a healthy baby boy by the end of 2022. I’m due on December 30th and I truly believe Epically Aligned had a lot to do with it. Having your birth vlog come out just as I’m experiencing signs of impending labor feels serendipitous. Thank you for sharing. Hoping mine goes quicker after a couple horrible labors I’ve had! But just so thankful our son will finally be here soon. So happy for you, Brennan and Orion too ❤️

    I've been watching the "BirthFlix" for weeks now as my wife is on 38 weeks + 4 days, but I think your vlog was the most complete so far, and I'm so so grateful you''re sharing your story with us! This is not just Orions birth, is your rebirth as a woman that's now a mom and Brennan's as a dad, and this is so powerful!
    I'm very emotional to see Brennan's participating, supporting and caring for you the whole time, rewriting the birth stories in your family line!
    And your first look at Orion's face, oh I'm sobbing again!
    This is so precious, thanks again! Much love to the 3 of you! ❤

When I finally could look at my phone, I saw that you had your baby as well, and your birth plans had changed just like mine. It helped me not feel alone. Thankful our baby boys are here 💜💜

    Wow. I’ve been wanting to watch this vlog post for a verrrry long time now and find it completely meant to be that I waited until now to finally watch it. For one, I’ve followed your journey for a long time, well before the pregnancy, and for two, I am about to enter my third trimester of my second pregnancy and am planning a home birth myself. At this point in my own journey, I am starting to mentally and physically prepare again for the wild ride of labor and delivery and this video was so close to my heart it brought tears to my eyes. I have many year’s experience as a labor and delivery nurse, had my own first birth go way out of my “plan”, and am now transitioning to my second birth but my first home birth. Every emotion you expressed in this video I felt to my core from every perspective possible with all my different back grounds. It’s also a reminder of how insanely powerful we are as birthing women and how much we surrender to what will be. Soooo reminiscent of manifesting as a whole to me. All in all, this video was so heartwarming and beautiful and I appreciated all the rawness and felt a sincere connection as I can sit here picturing or manifesting, my own next journey. It would be amazing to work alongside you and see your next birthing adventure as well!!! #mbagiveaway Sending love to you and your family!

I slowly progressed and would go to the hospital each morning and get check with minimal progress. So I totally understand the feeling of disappointment. My birth story is very similar to yours. Labor at home for days, epidural and sleep, then push and born quickly. I also had a son. Great work on bringing your son into the world. ❤

Sometimes the epidural is exactly the thing needed to allow your body to do what it needs while also allowing you (mentally) to get exactly what you needed- rest!

    I had such a similar birth in March this year. Laboured at home for 35 hours until baby got stuck at 8cm. I remember being checked and being told I hadn’t dialated at all in 10 hours. I also had about 4 hours of forced exercises hoping it would encourage me to dilate, it didn’t and that pain was indescribable. I feel your pain so deeply. I am sobbing. You did amazing. What a journey birth is but it all leads us to ultimate gift of our children. I also had a son. Love to you and your family, thank you for sharing ❤

      NO WAY!!!! You know EXACTLY then!! It is so psychically challenging, but when it doesn’t go how you scripted it, the mental challenge is massive. Yet you do get through it, and life continues. Powerful to have this reframe - that sometimes it doesn’t go our way at AND yet…. Maybe that just was what the universe intended for us 💗🙏🏻

After months of healing those limited beliefs I can say that lately allllll I see now is inspiration from your videos, blogs, workshops etc. I admire who you are and the life you have created.

      @@mangoreddy2699 I don’t why you are so angry 🤣 , but they’ve blurred out this beautiful woman’s body because TH-cam won’t allow it. Men are in the profession because they put in time and work to be a labor and delivery doctor. If you watched the whole video you see mostly women surrounding her and coaching her through until she had to go to the hospital. Her husband was there helping and HER HUSBAND is allowed to touch her in any way she needs or wants in that time. It’s not a sin it’s not in the Bible. Stop trying to say things are in the Bible when it isn’t. You are gonna have female doctors and midwives and doulas and you are gonna have male doctors as well. Nothing is wrong with that at all & it’s who she’s comfortable with.

That’s what’s wrong with the world it’s people who claim it’s a sin and going against the Bible and Gods word & twist it in there own way. You seriously need to rethink because all you’ve said is incredibly wrong and disgusting.

Do you comment this stuff on every birth video?? because thats disgusting. Birth & Labor is a very beautiful thing , YOU have no say on someones life and what they want to share with people. The way you think is very toxic and weird. I dont care if you wanna call me the most sinful , but im not out here passing judgement on women for giving birth its our nature , its what we are made to do. YOU have to have doctors and nurses for birth if something goes wrong with the child or mother. You cant see anything in this video lol , it is blurred out and giving birth you have to have your legs opened like that to bring the child down and through the cervix lol. If you are a man behind this account you have no say in a womans body at all and its non of your concern lol & if you are a woman behind this account thats weird and a shame that you are on here being so hateful and lying on Gods word and Other Religions words.

    Ok- this is crazy but I had the same exact birth experience. My son is 3 months to the day, but my labor for him was 40 hours too. I had a midwife, but after so many hours, no sleep and stalled transition, I went to get an epidural to sleep. After sleeping for a few hours he came out so fast! The falling to sleep with the epidural was the best feeling I’d ever experienced. Hugs to you for getting through such a long labor… you’re not alone!!!
