😊👋🏾 can you talk about elimination communication, if it’s a method you’ll use again, and takeaways you took from first teaching Aura til now?
I had a unassisted home birth in June as a FTM, most blissful experience. What truly helped was setting boundaries before labor. I didn't want unsolicited advice, I didn't want to hear negative birth outcomes (I mean we are well aware thanks to media right?) I allowed myself healthy "fears" as we are human navigating this portal, lots of affirmative music and words. My labor was 2 1/2 days and pushing baby out was painless!!! I envisioned myself opening like a flower in bloom, I surrendered to the process. It was like a switch went off in my brain and I felt expansion in the most beautiful way.
Omg wow amazing!! I want a home birth. Due in February! Any other tips? This would be my first home birth. Also, what about the antibodies that they give you through the iv during birth??? Did you have that during your home birth?? If you don’t mind sharing
Wow!! Congrats! What an encouraging testimony♡ First baby is due in March and I'm wanting to take in more stories of positivity as I truly believe it can be an amazing experience. Please share any books or resources you used to prepare mentally and physically!♡
@takemypainaway9517 make sure to create an environment that allows you to be fully immersed in your birth. That should be your only responsibility as you're laboring. Delegate jobs if you must. Hydrate hydrate hydrate. Laborbis a marathon. Have little snacks too, although you may or may not want to eat. Be mindful of the language you want used in your birth space. MUSIC. I, nor my baby received anything during or after birth. If that's something you desire you may want to look into a medwife
@hmmhuh1222 I really only read 2 books truthfully. "Birthing from within" and "Tarot for pregnancy" I spent alot of time on UA-cam watching unedited free births to gain an understanding of what raw birth could look and sound like. Also followed pages on Instagram that were geared towards undisturbed birth. @badassmotherbirther @freebirthsociety etc. Also just searching thr hashtag gives you lots of insight.
Omg this is so beautiful
i’m a maternal health researcher and i love your approach so much. there’s an overabundance of negative, depressing data about pregnancy complications and maternal mortality, and less data about the JOY that can come from pregnancy, childbirth, postpartum etc. this is something that’s been done since the beginning of time!
i love that you’re showing how you can take care of yourself + baby in ways that feel safe and empowering for you. it’s truly so beautiful. i hope and pray for all the best for your family ❤️❤️❤️
It is so important in how our “wording” affects our experience. Just the name “contraction” can conjure up tightening, gripping, stagnancy and control. If we use words like “sensations”; “waves” and “hugs” our perception of the intensity can result in sensations of softening, flow, surrender, warmth and acceptance. There can be less tension resulting in less sensations of pain. It’s fascinating and it works. Used the technique more efficiently at my second birth.
I had two freebirths a year apart! Alhamdulillah in my opinion freebirth is the safest most relaxing way to birth. I love that as freebirthing mamas we educate ourselves sooooo much and seek counsel from wise ladies! I love how we seperate ourselves from the system that tries to instill fear and mistrust in our Lord and in the way He designed our bodies. Hospitals routinely torture women every single day in this country and all around the world. Their standard protocols do not support the woman body which causes crazy complications that they blame on the woman. It's insane, demented and demonic in my opinion. May our Lord protect you and your baby and give you the birth of your dreams!! ❤
hospitals are the reason why child mortality rates are no longer 50%
Congratualtions soul sistar! I was pregnant with my first at the same time you were with Aura and I recently had my 3rd baby girl in October. All of my girls were born at home and my last was a Free Birth, just me and my husband present, labored for 3 hrs total. I can't say if orgasmic birth is truly something I experienced but I definitely felt the least pain and the most calm this last time. My tip for any mamas who want a quick and easeful birth: I was sitting on the edge of my couch with my legs spread, basically in the squat position. I turned on a hypnobirthing affirmations video on the tv. When each contraction came I used breath work to focus my mind on sending all sensations to my uterus. Every contraction I breathed deep and low and felt her move down lower and lower. Breathing this way helped all sensations stay in one place and I could have a Clear enough mental space to tell my body to move baby down and out. my water broke and I heard a pop internally. I went to the toilet and let out everything in my bladder, then my husband helped me to the birthing pool. She started coming out immediately so I had to use my breath to slow her descent and used quick breaths to push her out slowly til she easily slid out into her dad's hands.Breath Work is the key, obviously lol! Squatting position as well:) Sending so much love to you and your growing family Veladya! Thank you for creating such a comforting and safe space on the internet
Thank you so much for your comment! I'm going to have my 3rd in May and I'm 100% determined to be unmedicated.
This is true. I had my 2nd baby at the hospital because they wanted 10k for home birth😮. And for me to go to a birth center, I had to change all my Insurance, drs and such. So I decided to have a hospital birth but be in full control this time. We made a birth plan. I stayed hydrated although they said don't drink. I told them what position I will be giving birth in. I told them.to do a delayed cord cut so the blood from placenta can pulsate back into the baby. I read and studied alot more this time. And because of that I didn't tear or need stitches. I birthed on all 4s. Although I do believe squat is best. Your body actually naturally makes u go into that position. I agree that breath work is everything. I had no pain meds for both births
No epidural. I just breathed thru the pain and gripped the rail when necessary. When u are scared, ya uterus closes tighter, making birth longer and difficulties. I learned that u push during contraction only. The contraction helps to push so u not straining. We were very proud not gonna lie. I just wish I had music to zen out too. I also brought my own herbal pain meds and afterbirth stuff.
I love your reasoning for not needing to know if the child had any chromosomal defects. I am glad to hear that you are dedicated to all your possible children and not just the societally "perfect" ones :)
Holding Rumi in the beginning made this feel nostalgic!!
I had a painless birth with my first, it really is possible for anyone!
I definitely experienced pain in the middle of labor when I got in my head but once I got back in the zone and blocked everything else out, it was blissful. I was literally smiling as my baby came out of me 🧡
You can definitely achieve this Veladya!
Some tips that helped me:
1. Learn about how it's physically possible to have a pain free birth (oxytocin, just like you said)
2. Spend time connecting to your womb space, get comfortable bringing you awareness to different areas (hips, cervix, womb, etc)
3. Work through your childhood/unhealed traumas. All trauma keeps us from being fully alive in the present moment so the more you heal the more present you can be during birth.
4. Practice receiving every sensation as pleasure...start with positive/neutral sensations like touching your own arm and then you can try more challenging ones like standing barefoot in the snow. Practice going from discomfort to neutral sensation to pleasure.
I could give a million more tips but I hope this helps someone out there 🥰
Thank you.
I practiced hypnobirthing with all 3 pregnancies and although I wouldn’t say “pain-free”, they were all fear-free, natural, and incredibly empowering, as well as bonding for us as a family. Unfortunately, they were all in the hospital due to lack of knowledge and resources on our part but without hypnobirthing, I can’t imagine how difficult and painful they could’ve been!!
For easier delivery: Adelle Davis book "let's have healthy children"..ch 13,p 124 "for an easier delivery" she lists calcium and vit e as two important nutrients. Both decrease sensitivity to pain, calcium :2000milligrams in a glass of milk at start of delivery. Vitamin e 400 units daily, zinc was also noted 10-15mg daily 1-2 weeks b4 expected delivery( of course, natural organic sources of these vitamins recommended). Hope this is helpful. Haven't tried these myself yet but will next time around.
Thank you!
You can try a tent with the four walls and zipper door around the hot tub and get a heater to heat the area. If you have the space, just a thought
I gave birth at home to my 2nd child in my bathtub, unmedicated and unassisted. I wasn't the plan, birth just escalated before I could make it to the hospital. Most empowering moment of my life. My little Naomi is almost a year and a half now.
i love yall so much. have not been on yt in a minute - im so glad your family is back together and ANOTHER BABBBBBYYY!!!!
Mat seems so unenthused but I admire his authenticity for not faking it.
It's more of me snuggling a cat in an already fatigued body mixed with me being a authentic person. I don't necessarily change my behavior bc a camera is on.😅
I’m so glad ya’ll are back together and are doing videos together again. I first was introduced to your channel from Matt’s first cleaning his locs video

First I want to thank you for being open. I know this platform can be harsh but your info is so helpful for ppl like me. I don’t have kids yet but the desire to have one is growing. I question the societal ways a lot. Just something so simple as saying homebirth, has family/friends jumping down my throat, but I know my heart and spirit really want it and I know that it is a good choice for me. You have given me so much knowledge and courage to stand in what I want and believe in and I cannot wait to hear about your birthing experience. ❤
I’m so excited for you guys ❤❤❤love yall so much!
I’m so happy for your family ♥️♥️♥️ I’ve been cheering on your reconciliation from the beginning. Best blessings regardless of the gender 🌹🌹🌹
Hey yall, I am currently preparing myself and body for motherhood. I love this channel. And glad how all things are coming together:)
You and I were preggo same time in 2020 since then I have struggled with severe anxiety and ALL OF THIS RINGS TRUE all those TEST were NONSENSE. I SAW THE FAILURES AND CALLED THEM OUT!!! MUCH LOVE I LOVE THE NEW JOURNEY!! MUCH LOVE
I was not at all fearful with my births. They were not "pain free" but they were suffering free. Not orgasmic in a physical way, but really beautiful in its intensity. My first one was 6 days of labor (i think i told you that when we met), and ended up transferring to the hospital despite our best efforts. I was at peace with it and grateful for the epidural when it was actually needed.
2nd baby was 2.5 days of labor and birthed in home standing up!
Still not "orgasmic" or pain free, but suffering free, transformative and beautiful. There is also anlot of pressure for women to choose which kind of birth they want (orgasmic, pain free...whatever) but birth happens in spite of our plans. While "pain is caused by fear" i have heard a lot, it was not my experience. Sometimes we are clearing ancestral pain thru birth which still makes it beautiful. I certainly planned for a pain free orgasmic birth but being open to it being what it was allowed the intensity without disappointment that i didnt orgasm during the process 😉😊
This was an interesting watch, it was soo good seeing you guys come together and talk about this journey. Id love to know more about your eating, this pregnancy. Also, i could not help but be fascinated by Rumi cuddling in Matt's hands.
I gave birth from home in August. It was my second as a mom and a first time as a doula. I definitely remember writing my boundaries letting others know and scheduling people to come over to help. Something I wish I did more of was have prepped meals frozen. The recovery period or 4th trimester requires allot of bodily love (massages, resting, postpartum baths). The struggle was truly remembering to let the body rest especially since my 3 year old requires him mommy time too. There's so much to consider so the practice of giving grace and releasing other people's stuff has been in season.
So beautiful how you are talking about tests, I feel exactly the same. Thanx for sharing.
The kitty loving on Matt is soo sweet. I was a little distracted because I love and miss my fur babies. Thank you guys for posting this.
I think it's a boy. It looks like baby is sitting a bit to your right side and the boy of my twins favored the right side to the very last second literally lol.
Loving the growth Veladya and Mat 🌻

I had all my children all natural, and yes orgasmic birth with four out of my five. When ever I told ppl about it they looked at me weird like that is not possible. It happens when the head comes out and it absolutely amazing something everyone should experience. My first was the only one I didn’t experience it with but once I know that my body mind and baby are working together I let all fear go and went with it.I’m so glad you are trying to experience an orgasmic birth it’s not as long as a normal organism about half and just as pleasurable a connection with mom baby and body.
Following you all the way from Australia :) you got this :) breath breath breath and ride the waves through the transitions.
You will do great! :) kia kaha x
Y’all look SO good and healthy. ❤❤ love y’all!!
First ❤️ I literally love you and your family so much
Rumi chilling the whole time said I’m the first baby so 😂🫶🏾
Thank you V and Matt always insightful honest and a pilar of independence
Peace & Love Always 🩵
So cute I thought the same thing but I'm the first baby see
Ngl I was zoomed in on the cat being loved on Matt’s lap for a portion of this video, it was adorable
When my mama moment comes, I will definitely be rewatching your preggo videos!! 🤎
Bless you, Mat & Aura. You will have a beautiful, healthy & happy baby.
That’s awesome love and yes her teas are potent for sure! I’m going to order again soon.
I'm excited to see your birth so I can learn as much as I can about a pain free birth. And I love your take on what you are deciding to do with your next child. Its nice to hear different perspectives.
Hello Veladya! Glad to hear just how much and how fully you are trusting YOUR SELF and having faith in the body's natural rhythms. Not many people do it this way in a first world country any more. So interested in hearing more on this subject, but I am aware that this can be a touchy subject for many. Matt looks like he got no sleep :( Hope you rest soon sir. Aura was so funny when she said how she didn't like boys..and Rumi is just chilling the whole time. I'd love to see you do an updated pregnancy diet + nutrition/ vitamin/supplement video. You guys are wonderful. Sending you love. ❤
totally a boy! i’m a little further along than you and had the same experience with pretty much no morning sickness and just a little nausea in those early weeks when i didn’t eat enough. congrats on baby number 2 🥳🎉
How is Matt going to support you better this time around? Are you doing any kinds of checks at home like blood pressure? Love you guys.
Beautiful! Thank you guys, very excited for you. And let me tell you, your wardrobe is fiiire lately. We need a updated wardrobe video 😄🤞
Hi Veladya i am from Puerto Rico. Just as tou i planned my second baby (now 3 yrs and 3 months) for a home birth and couldnt achieved that. But my 3rd baby (now 10 months) we had it here in our home. Its so powerfull and beautiful. I wouldnt call it 100%pain free but i was so able to manage it better and it was less painfull ((a lot less) than my second boy…and although ended having him in the hospital it was natural and non medicated.
For this 3rd i would say it was more of a bliss than pain free. I was such in a “natural hight” state. It was incredible because i didnt know it was possible in a birthing process. I was soooo relaxed for many hours i wasnt even able to push or anything . It just happened so natural and relaxed. I felt powerfull. ❤
I am so happy i know tou guys will rock this birth process. Honoring and understanding every one is different. I love Aura she is so adorable! Would like to meet you guys if u ever come to PR again. We live in the mountains of Yabucoa Puerto Rico. Love you and send ur family much love and blessings. This baby is a blessing 💫. We drink raw milk sometimes too when we can find it. We are also a “psychedelic family” both me and my husband have made the medicine. A lot of things this theme can be talked about. I love it. We have to stop being afraid pf all these things the system have told us and indoctrinated us to believe. ❤
I’ve had 2 unassisted pain free births. What helped the most was just going about my day as normal for as long as possible and then being completely alone(in the shower sitting on a ball) while my husband set up the pool. I birthed within an hour of getting in the pool both times. First one was 4hrs total, second was 2hrs you can do it!
I believe that you can never have too many people that love you. I hope you all know that we, your YourTube family, trully love you.
The both of you look so happy.
Congratulations you 2 🎊 🎉 You look beautiful Veladya!!!! Your having a beautiful baby boy💙
Infinite LOVE 💗 to you and the family 🙌🏾
You are a wealth of information. Thank you for making videos like this.
Girl my first labor was loooooooong and awful! My second was so fast and easy so hopefully its the same for you!
Thanks so much! I came to one of your women circles in 2021 after being a subscriber. Now I am 5 months pregnant with my second. My oldest will be 17 next week. I am doing things differently. I went a “traditional” route last time resulting in a C-section. I did not trust myself at that time even though spirit was giving me so many messages. I have grace for myself, because it was not a bad experience, and my son and I are both healthy this time around. I have not been to the doctor and do not plan to. I am, saving up and looking into a midwife. My goal is to have an outdoor birth. I’m open to plant medicine during birth. I have still been using Plant medicine during my pregnancy. Thank you for being an online representation. I have been wanting to see more like mines journeys because this is new for me and not everyone understands but this time I’m trusting myself.
You got this I’m a mom of 5 just had baby #5 4weeks ago. My first 2 babies were c-sections and my last 3 births were homebirths. You can definitely achieve with the right birth team I always had a doula and a midwife that supported me the entire pregnancy.
So happy for your family growth. Such a gift from the universe to be able to experience and have such a wonderful family. Congratulations 🎉 and also maybe think of putting a tent over the jacuzzi with heat contain around for the birth. So awesome and beautiful ❤
Loved this video! Thank you
I had a pretty pain-free birth. Planned to have the baby at a birthing center with a midwife but ended up in the hospital at 28.5 weeks. I closed my eyes and focused on breathing, listening to my husband coaching me breathing and relaxing in between each contraction. I also didn't force any pushing. I let my body do it for me.
I didn’t have a pain-free labor, but I did have my son on the no pain pushing type thing like I was on my hands and knees, and I had no more pain in my body was working naturally to push him out as I was on my hands and knees giving birth to him during the delivery portion, the pain disappeared but also lost control of my body. It did it by itself it pushed him out.
My first birth was a home birth, nine years ago. My second was just born on the 4th and was an unassisted home birth. It was incredible! My daughter got to be there and it was an amazing experience. Both babies were a surprise gender and I swear that’s the best surprise ever!!! I knew the whole time this new baby was a girl. I wanted a Sag sun, Virgo moon baby and that’s exactly what we got. Orgasmic birth is very real. My second birth was only 70mins of “painful” labor. It was intense, fast and incredible. I’m so excited for y’all 💕
Oh wow, I’m a Sag sun, Virgo moon .
Congratulations ❤🎉
Veladya it’ll be okay my love. I wish you the most peaceful and healthy birth. A peace of mind and lots of support from spirit
I had a euphoric 7 hour birth as a first time mom! contractions started at 8 am baby came at 3pm ! My few tips 👇🏾
• Red raspberry leaf tea - I consumed red raspberry leaf tea almost every day starting my second trimester
• Deep breaths through contractions - do not tense up ,breathe deeply and shake out your limbs when fighting through the pain if that makes sense( once the pain of the contraction would come I would shake out my legs my arms and breathe deeply)
• Physical movement/birth ball- I bounced on the birth ball during my labor and made sure I was moving around the room squatting and bending over on the bed and swaying my hips.
•Make noises- moan and Deep belly roar like the mama lion you are when needed. It helps open the birth canal.
• lots of water / bathroom breaks !
Releasing pee helps dilation as well as sitting on the toilet!
• Stay OUT of the birth pool as long as possible. Wait until you’re ready to push to get in.
I know the pool is used to manage pain however the pool sometimes slows the process down ..
Praying for a blissful and safe delivery 🙏🏾🤎✨
The pee part is soooo true I forgot to pee during my second freebirth and whew I didn't realize it was probably slowing things down?
Wishing you and your whole family peace and love while you welcome the arrival of your amazing new child!! It's so beautiful to see you all come together so thoughtfully and calmly for your upcoming birth. I wish I had so much of the birth information you share here, ( specifically managing fear and the realities of safety for the mother and child during labor and delivery ). When I had my only child. I was a single mother without a lot of personal support around, ( my partner had died when I was seven months pregnant). I'd forgotten about that glucose test until you mentioned here how dangerous it actually is! I had some kind of reaction to it that was terrifying - but I was negative for gestational diabetes, so why would a test make me sick?? I think now that I was just super uninformed - but of course, trying to do everything right for the baby. In my birth class, they did stress being your own advocate, But once I was in the hospital ,( and full of fear ), that kind of all went out the window and it seemed like traditional western medicine just dominated the process. Luckily, both my daughter and I were fine. But it wasn't the beautiful, memorable experience I would have wished for. I don't even remember seeing the umbilical cord! And they took the baby away to sort of clean her up and poke her feet for blood samples kind of immediately - which sends your protective mothering instincts into overdrive. I really do think that the baby internalizes the stress of this kind of birth too, even though most people probably believe they are unaware at that stage.
My first daughter's birth process (unassisted at home) was 4 days long and we also left for hospital. I ended up giving birth on the side of the road! Pregnant with my second and calling in a drama free birth at home this time around 😊
Much love and prayers bro. Protect your energy bro.
Hi Valedya, greetings from the Netherlands 🥰
I tried to have a hypno birth… I read a book…and watch a ton of video’s of women who experienced a pleasured experience birth. I was o a roll… and could not wait to let it all start… no fear at all.
This was my second birth btw.
When the labor started i was all by myself did not want to wake my partner yet. But i stayed to the end by myself.. i was pain free… in extacy… no orgasim tho…. But so intune with myself…. And felt so strong, alert, and relaxed and calm at the same time. It was amazing. I knee that i had to stay alone… anything else would disturbed my extase- focus…. I had to stay with me.
Enjoy the journey! And look forward to it… hype houtwerk up.. with all the positive thoughts and emotions.
You Guys will rock. ❤
Ftm here just entering my second trimester and I feel seen and also oh so opened to the possibilities of birth. I havent received any medical or midwife intervention.. yet? and my support system is full of worries and science and need and doubts. Thank you for sharing. Feeling empowered to do absolutely anything I feel I need is right for me and baby
Be careful about their access to you because their "support" should respect or empower your choices. No sabotage allowed❤
I got a question, but first y'all look so beautiful.. the way you said: "in that unification, came the desire to bring another ancestor foward" just cleared up my heart.. I thank you for being there because there is so much joy and love and I realise how great teachers you are, I'm grateful for that. So my question is how do you do your own research, how or where do you start/get your information?
YAYYYY VELADYA!
Blessed be for this new baby. So excited for you all. Have you all talked with Aura about her being a big sibling? Are there any “rituals/routines” you may be considering around her new changing reality?
So happy for you 💚😍‼️
Amazing that you're considering an orgasmic birth! I just took a Orgasmic Birth Doula Training. Think about your ideal birthing environment that will allow you to be in your body and remember you can't think your way through labor, you have to feel your way through it! Hope this helps! 😊🙏🏾
They’re back to together! Wow
Thats wonderful so many can see your story and see how birth and pregnancy are not emergency situations and processes.
I,also, had an intervention free pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Currently, 18 months postpartum and ive used the green plant both thc and cbd for my medicines. Ive done a few podcasts that i talk about my experience now as pp support. I talk about our hotel birth my husband and I, first time mama at 34 and had an intuitive orgasmic birth, highly recommend 👌🏾 High discomfort not pain is what i had experienced, and Im nervous for baby 2 lol 😅 🙃 💐💐💐
Can you share podcast links? Wishing you the best for baby number 2!
matt cracks me up!! lmao. congrats to you both. Also the cat , love your cat. hee hee
Wow thank you so much for this video. I never thought you could have birth without going to the doctor or having a midwife. I learn so much from you two. Thank you for sharing
Great video any chance you’d discuss your thoughts on vaccination for baby’s and yourself or any resources I can read about them not sure they are for the best
I can see the baby position sitting on the left side. On the plant side. So cute.
his face stayed the same while yours looks like you again only happier..I am happy to see you so happy and both of you beside one another again. Congratulations and PS. I think your cat approves of your loving husband too. I am so happy for you and I like your videos
I think a great test to do during pregnancy would be an HTMA just to learn more about mineral status and it’s super non-invasive. Ya’ll are such a beautiful family!
I totally agree!
Love y'all🎉❤
I believe that it's completely natural to feel pain when the body is going through something so traumatic. The most important thing is to not let the pain overwhelm you. Birth doesn't have to be "pain free" inorder for it to be transformative and beautiful. A healthy mom and baby after birth is what is the most important. Wishing you a smooth, unproblematic delivery, and speedy recovery.
OAN: I think that you are having a boy!
Matt personality is the best😭😂 he’s sooooo goofy and entertaining💀
If it's something you're willing to get into more detail on I would love to hear about the cosmic signs you received about conception. I feel like something similar might have happened to me. I labored at home all day by myself thinking it was just braxton hicks 😂 once the cold chills hit I knew my body was telling me it was the real deal. In the 4 hours from me having that realization to my daughter being born I would say it got pretty intense but I was calm. I wouldn't say my birth was pain free, I did let out 1 scream at the very end due to a tear which might not have happened if I was in the more relaxed setting I would've preferred (home birth) but baby girl was ready to arrive a little sooner then expected so for safety I too ended up in the hospital. But I think because I kept an open mind through out the pregnancy that yes I had my preferences but I had complete trust that birth would go the way it was meant and I just rolled with the flow so even though we were in the hospital I still had an overall good experience considering the circumstances. I birthed vaginally with absolutely no medical interventions and I would do it all over again if I am called to bear another child.
I'm interested in how you found out how far along you are without tests. I want to personally know for next time.
Thank you! 🙏🏽♥️
Do you have book recommendations on this? Thanks!
Just curious why you all don't have a doula as a part of the birthing plan? Thanks
Had a 48 hour labor + birth at home with a very hands off midwife. Wonderful experience. I didn’t perceive any of the contractions as pain, just “power”.
It was a huge trip - I felt connected to all of womankind through time immemorial. I also had a vision of my great grandmother, who came to me and told me “the only way out is through” in transition.
I will say, the last 10 mins - aka pushing my giant baby out through my lil vag - I did perceive as pain. It was fuckin hard and I was growling, and I think that’s awesome and OK. Listen, life isn’t always pleasure. I’m here to feel pain too, and on the other side of that fire, was absolute bliss.
Hi second baby born in hospital had an amazing second birth experience!! What helped me was waiting to the last possible second to go to hospital i labored in bed and rested as much as possible (I was probably in early labor for maybe a all day and didn’t know it was the real deal until bed tune spent lots of time walking, dancing and bouncing on my yoga ball with my older daughter) Hypnobabies as well as expectful app meditation hugely helpful. My doula came to my house around 3am and said we could have the baby here but then we’d have to call ambulance and transport to hospital. I said I’d rather go to hospital we drove about 20 min to hospital and then my water broke as we arrived they wheeled me to birth center and baby boy born 20 minutes later. Also birthing on hands and knees positioning! I grabbed back of hospital bed for leverage while I pushed! I had a super similar experience with my first born baby girl i was having her at a free standing birth center had stalled labor complications had to transfer to hospital and ended up with vacuum delivery. I was so lucky that I had my midvives and OBGYN who were supportive of home and natural birth my ob delivering for a long time and I think any other ob would have given me c section. Anyway I’m so grateful for him because having even assisted vagingal birth helped make way for my son. He was born with just beautiful supportive women in his presence and was the most amazing experience in my life! It was truly an empowered birth second babies do tend to go a little smoother but birth is a wild and unpredictable ride but the most beautiful thing ever! Have that orgasmic birth you got this appreciate you sharing your story ❤️
Congratulations to you both. My question is What pills or herbs are you taking prenatally?
Hey sista I had a pain free birth with my first, my biggest tip would be to practice some form of yoga during pregnancy that equips you to move through sensation and find the bliss in it, I held on to my yogic teachings during birth and they definitely expanded my understanding of pain and pleasure and the fine line between them
Exactly. Yoga….
Would love to see baby nesting videos. Like baby clothing hauls and prepping for the baby 🥰 I think it’s a boy!
Yes chillest 🎉 hahaha I'm due January 2024 ...Exciting to hear about your experiences
Did you guys start picking out names? More specifically unisex names? So happy for the union and new bambina!☺️💙
Mom of 4 here 17, 16, 21months, 6months. I first want to say I’m so over the moon happy for y’all❤ I felt led to share for any momma currently watching this video who is expecting or ttc Please do not personalize this video. Everything Veladya is sharing is her experience. It’s a beautiful gift she has and why we all follow her. Pregnancy is very Sacred and different for all women. No two pregnancies are the same. Comfort yourself in knowing that you can have a positive Hospital Birth just as you can a Home Birth. My youngest was delivered via C-section and I was in active labor 5 centimeters dilated. Not only was my son breeched but he was stuck. The ultrasound saved his life and my life. They were very much needed❤ my intuition told me to go to the hospital I was not in pain but I was very much in active labor. I would say you must have a strong prayer life nothing major but tap in with God for everything. Pray over your medical team. And pray for babies guardian angle in the womb. Also I agree with Veladya that glucose test is no good and the Results are rubbish. Eat healthy drink lots of water take your vitamins and move your body at least 30 mins a day. Ok love y’all bye❤
It's important for women to see themselves in each other. If someone feels called to freebirth do the research, pray and go for it!! ❤ you don't have to be "special" to freebirth or have a wild pregnancy. Many women of all backgrounds have freebirthed since the beginning of human existence.
What Velayda is saying isn't radical that's my point. Hospitals are very dangerous places to birth especially for black women in my opinion. They subject women to tortuous unnatural things and project lies onto the woman making her feel like her body is broken. Birth in this country is a huge money making machine. Breech is a variation of normal for instance and I wouldn't expect to peacefully birth a baby breech in a hospital because they do not see it as normal they see it as an emergency. It is much safer for a healthy woman to birth undisturbed. To women reading this if you feel called to freebirth do the research and pray and go for it. It is truly just a process of unlearning and normal and not rocket science at all❤
@@artsynahnah2658 Just as i stated in my original post. Every pregnancy and every birth is a Sacred Experience. Unfortunate outcomes can happen both in a home birth or hospital. It’s reckless to say a woman can safely deliver a breeched baby. My son was not only breeched he was stuck in my uterus. I’m a greatful for the two ultra sounds I had that clearly showed his position and I am grateful for my positive C-section it saved my life and my sons life. I felt led to share my positive experience for any momma currently pregnant. So she knows that you can have a positive birth in your home or hospital.
Intuition is everything. Thank you for sharing.
I hope baby is born in January!! My bday is Jan 5th! Love an earth sign. Happy belated bday V! 💜
Hey Bday twin!! 😊 I hope you enjoy your special day next year!
@@invadingminds you too! Happy early birthday 🥳 🎉🔥
I loooove Aura! No Boys Allowed! 😂 I'm two weeks behind you in my pregnancy! 😊 It's been fantastic! But I do agree that my baby now is stronger than my daughter was at 26 wks 6 days (27 wks tomorrow). I had her at 26 weeks. This little guy is busting hella dance moves in here most of the time. Can't wait to meet y'all and kiss your faces. Veladya, you are a true inspiration. As a South Georgia girl, it's hard to move around these systematic normals. I almost have to fight my family because I don't wear shoes and prefer to sit on the ground or floor. Shalam waBarakwath (Peace & Blessings) Te Amo.💚💛🩵🩶 P.S. Have you guys thought about performing at Hippie Fest next year? I'm thinking about auditioning.
Lol, Aura was so "matter of fact, point blank, period" about having a girl, I love that for her!
Maybe you guys could get a tent and put it over the hot tub. Also get a couple heat lamps to go inside of it. Then you could do the hot tub without the cold weather being an issue. Just a thought. Wishing you a healthy baby and an easy birth. Love your content. Thanks for sharing your lives with us. ❤❤❤❤
I come in love, I have a suggestion. May you please have a hospital of your choice as a backup? With your information provided just in case. It's always great to have a plan B for your birth plan. Lots of love,
A fellow natural mom🥰
im feeling extremely depleted and emotionally messed up (extreme irritability and low energy )from breastfeeding and i wondered if you could talk about what kind of nutrition you recommend for postpartum and breastfeeding. My little one is 6 months!
Can you create a temporary house for the Jacuzzi to provide some insulation for mom & baby in the event you end up needing it?
Bet baby will be an Aquarius! I’m feeling a girl. Feels so Aquarius to choose Sag and Virgo parents! Wishing yall nothing but love
Girl I tell you I can't even have babies I was dumb enough to have a hysterectomy but I wish I had the knowledge that you have and that I have learned in this stage of my life vaccines Etc all of that is unnecessary and the reason for majority of the sicknesses keep spreading knowledge much love from NC
I love yall
