    As a maternity nurse, birth is so traumatic. Don’t ever apologize for your trauma. It’s still taboo to talk about what happens in there. Especially in our sanitized society. You guys did great! Congratulations 🥳

      Completely agree. I think anyone that’s going into birth has to expect it 1) to not go the way you want it too. I know you can’t prepare from trauma. And birth isn’t traumatic for everyone. I know I was lucky to have the experience I did but not everyone has that. My best friend had a really difficult time and it sounded very scary. She said she would not do it again. She was to traumatised by the experience

      Just want to say thank you for all you do . I’ve had 3 natural births, but this last on July 29th was the wildest experience. My water broke at my regular dr appointment when he went to check my cervix so I had to go get induced and I only had 4 hours of insane contractions, I got one every time I moved my body and they were inconsistent the whole time but extremely intense. My labor nurse was AMAZING. Daddy was too but I think he was also 😳 about how it was going down . She really got me through the whole thing! I almost got an epidural just bc the doctor asked if I wanted one in the middle of an intense contraction, so out of complete fear and pain I said yes , she calmly asked me if that’s what I really wanted and I said no , and my daughter came so fast that she caught her! I will never forget her . This was also the first time I didn’t have my momma with me and she took on that roll for sure . ❤ thank you for all you do!!

      You’re definately not on your own. Traumatic births are more common than fairytale ones 100%. A lot of women fall somewhere in between, but a lot of women have extremely traumatic births and pregnancies, they just feel guilty talking about it or admitting it. It’s okay. Hope you’re doing well mama.

    Their relationship is the best one I have seen online. I feel like a lot of women don't know the many ways their birth can go, when Liana said she was fed fairytales of how her birth will happen is so true how a lot of women have it. It's so nice to see both mom, dad and baby healthy and happy.

      Most women don’t have a fairytale.
      birth. Many many women have extremely traumatic pregnancies and/or births, and many have births that fall somewhere in between. I personally haven’t seen many fairytale births in my time. But I understand telling yourself, and ob’s telling first time moms to be calm and it’ll be beautiful. I have never been the type. I tell moms the truth, to not be scared, but it might be very very scary, but we will take care of you. Honesty is important. I’d say probably 40% of patients consider their birth traumatic, especially those who have to get emergency c-sections with little to no warning and those who go into labor very early, but women seldom talk about it because it often makes them feel guilty to admit that they didn’t love how their child came into the world

    I’m so sorry it didn’t go to plan Liana. This shows the strength of a mother, how instinctual it is and how it instantly kicks in during labour because it sounds like you so bravely bossed such unpredictable and dangerous situations. It can be really tough to gather your thoughts and piece things together after labours like this so please take your time.
    I’m shocked we’ve even had this video so soon now knowing what you’ve been through. What both of you have been through, it’s hard for the Dads too! Take your time and continue to find the joy in baby boy, your life is now forever changed.

    I can’t believe how similar our stories are. My son was born on August 4th via c-section. I stopped progressing at 7 cm and the dr said the baby’s head was tilted and said we may have to consider a c-section. There was also meconium in my fluid. After trying to continue naturally for 3 more hours, the dr suggested a c-section again and at this point we decided to go forward with it. After he was out the dr said there was no way he was coming vaginally due to the position of his head. After my husband left with the baby I started having an anxiety attack while on the operating table. The anesthesiologist told me that they were almost done but then 30 more minutes passed and they were still working. After what felt like forever they were taking me to the recovery room and I was shaking uncontrollably, crying, and couldn’t catch my breath. I found out in recovery that I had hemorrhaged during surgery and that’s why it took so long. My mom and husband kept asking if I wanted to hold the baby but I was shaking so bad I was afraid to hold him. Eventually the shaking stopped and the anxiety attack passed and I thought the bad part was over. We were discharged on the 5th day but 2 days later I was in my drs office because I had an infection and my incision had opened. I started to show signs of PPD pretty much as soon as we got home from the hospital. Yesterday marked 4 weeks since surgery and we are still working on getting the wound to heal completely. This was not how I ever imagined the birth would go and it’s been the hardest thing I’ve ever done. But we made it through and I have my beautiful baby boy. Thank you for sharing your story and making me feel less alone in this experience ❤️

    My brother and sister in law went through this emotional rollercoaster of nearly losing my sisters in law as her uterus and bladder both had ruptured during her BVAC attempt. She had an emergency c-section but the staff wouldn’t listen to her when she kept saying something is VERY WRONG. She waddled into the hallway screaming something is wrong and a doctor finally did an ultrasound and saw what was happening. Her numbed her right there and started cutting while they were wheeling her into the OR as he said they had about 3 minutes or less to get baby out or they would lose them both. They both lived but it was a terrifying time and it took months for the family to recover from it. I don’t wish that on anyone. I’m thankful for your medical team that was willing to give you the opportunity to try to have a natural birth, but stepped in and helped you through a very difficult delivery and post-birth period. Glad you and baby are safe but you did go through something traumatic. Take your time and heal mentally, emotionally and physically my dears.

When the drs finally checked in on her after 12 hours I was in distress so they raced to surgery and I was born in three minutes. She was hiding this pregnancy from everyone so she had no prenatal care and was so I’ll she only gained ten pounds. I was 7 pounds 9 ounces. She even showed me the scar where I came out.

    From Connor letting his guard down and getting emotional to Liana talking about how her only thoughts were the fact that if she died the baby was safe, this was beautiful. Growing up in a house filled with children, I've seen births go to plan, I've seen births not go to plan. I'd definitely say this deserves a massive well done, you handled it amazingly.

      We have 8 kids. I hemorrhaged with 6 of them. Our first 6 were delivered naturally and the last one was born at 25 weeks by cesarean. I worked in labor and delivery for over a decade. I always tell women that a birth plan is great, but to also remember baby will do what it wants and if it is healthy that is the main goal. So many people get very upset if it doesnt go the way they have always imagined/dreamed it would. I will say a cesarean doesnt feel as satisfying (if that makes sense) but most of these things are somewhat common. Not fun, but happen quite often. No one should feel like it wasnt one of the best experiences of their life if a healthy baby is the end result. Going through that as a first time parent can be scary though. Especially if they only pictured it one way during the whole pregnancy.

    I'm sorry that you don't get your chilled home birth but I just wanted to say THANK YOU so much for being so open and honest about the reality of birth and how everything can change in an instant. I guarantee that this video is going to help SO many mums and dads in the future and make them realise they aren't alone and it's okay to be disappointed or upset about how difficult..traumatic and upsetting labour can be! By being so brave and open about the reality of birth your bringing comfort to so many people out there who don't have the "perfect" birth and it's so important to show the other side because all to often we only get to see the picture perfect labour stories where everything goes to plan e though the majority of births are not as movies and media present it to be.
    Of course my heart breaks for the fact you both had to go through such a difficult and stressful life experience and would have loved for you to have gotten the relaxing home birth you had planned for. However this experience is son important to share and if more people showed the hard and scary parts people would be better prepared when things do go wrong. Hats of to you both again you dealt with a extremely painful and complex birth so well and I hope you are able to health from the physical and mental scars a birth with complications can bring you. I wanted to say to Connor he was an amazing partner and although he isn't physically experiencing the pain birth partners often take on a lot of the trauma when complications arise because they are fully conscious and aware of everything going wrong. The person in labour if flooded with adrenaline and exhausted almost in a semi-conscious state not fully aware of everything happening which in cases like this is often a blessing . I've had a large bleed before and I was so woozy and out of it I make me weirdly calm and not fully aware of the imminent danger and panicking amongst the staff. Of course the pain is horrific and the experience was without a doubt traumatic it was defiantly worse for the mainly watching as they could see the bleeding and the life fading out of me coupled with the sense of utter helplessness and wanting to "fix it" . For that reason I'm blown away at how well Connor dealt with the whole situation because it's absolutely terrifying and you have to put on a brave face for your partner and he handled it perfectly. I hope the both of you continue to open up about the trauma and share your feelings .. I've NEVER been more proud of two strangers and I'm in complete awe of how strong and healthy your relationship is 😍. Often men feel like they can't complain or have a cry about what happened because they weren't the ones physically experiencing the pain but especially in situations like this the birthing partner takes on a huge amount of the stress..trauma and emotional turmoil and it's complexly okay to be terrified and be upset about what happened after all Connor had to watch on for days unable to do anything to really help and then he had to watch as she was bleeding out feeling he had to be the one to hold it all together

    I had a very similar experience and I found it extremely difficult to talk about. You can request your birth notes, I read mine frequently during the first year. They can help you understand what happened, affirm your own memories and help to process the experience. My hospital also offered a birth debrief where the notes where fully explained minute by minute by the head midwife. I found that to be incredibly helpful. I also invested heavily in the idea of hypnobirthing and felt I was sold a pipe dream. You will heal physically and mentally, lean on your support network, vocalise your feelings often, cry all the tears. There will come a time when you can relay this story without having to relive the terror I'm sure you felt. Birth trauma is real, and a safe and healthy baby doesn't take away the trauma you've experienced. Sending lots of love and healing!

I’m so glad you guys were straight forward and didn’t sugar coat anything so that we can see how hard it is for everyone and how strong both parents have to be. I love you guys so much and you both are literally sooo amazing and are soooo strong! Can’t wait to meet little Babi, and I’m glad y’all are ok. Stop but I’m literally crying now😭🤍

    I’ve been checking your account two times or more a day to see if you have had babi because I was so worried that something awful had happened. I’m so tearful for you and the fact that you have done so well to get here and the fact you were prepared to die for babi and Connor was so beautiful and very meaningful and an insanely heroic descision you were prepared to make. I’m just so happy your here now and that babi is safe, beautiful and well. Stay strong both of you since you are amazing people and deserve so much for the pain, stress and anxiety you went through to get baby boy. Stay safe and we are always here for you. ❤️❤️

      God bless you. I have chronic pain and chronic health issues as well but I’m single. I’m so glad you have someone as supportive as your husband and I couldn’t agree more with all you said. Having that support during something so scary is so vital for not only the physical pain, but the surge of emotions someone goes through during labor. It’s scary enough as it is having a baby (I don’t have any yet) and laboring for almost 72 hours but I can’t imagine the fear Connor was in being more alert than Liana, and Liana, YOU ARE A BAD ASS MOM!!!! My sister inlaw hemorrhaged when she had my niece and now she’s a rambunctious 4 year old and I couldn’t imagine what could have happened. I am keeping all of you in my prayers. I don’t know if you share the name of Babi in this video because I paused at 48:40 to reply to this comment but I can’t wait to hear the name and watch them grow up and the two of you being incredible parents 🧡🧡 Thats one blessed baby!

I've struggled with extreme severe chronic pain and health issues for a solid 5+ years now and I always feel guilty about how I must be impacting them but at the same time, it's so much harder to go at it alone. I've been in the hospital for over a year now - for the most part completely alone and I think that is the hardest part. I wish I had someone close to me to be there with me with the nights are seemingly impossible to get through. Stay strong

    You got through this ❤
    So 26 years ago I endured 135 hours of labour at 39 weeks and 6 days pregnant, but with so many problems I had to have an emergency c section…
    It was incredibly traumatic.
    We nearly lost the baby and nearly lost me.
    My pelvis was fused following an accident at age 15 when I broke my lumbar spine.
    My soft tissue dilated but my pelvis did not.
    I was utterly exhausted, badly anaemic, dropping blood pressure ….
    I nearly died… but I didn’t and my son was born at hour 136.
    Two years ago I did do it all again for my daughter but with support and control! Mind you it was still horrific and once again I nearly died.
    That was at 37 weeks, prebooked c section and my blood pressure bottomed out and I lost a lot of blood.
    After 4 days in intensive care I was told to never have another baby again!
    So at 24 years old my journey was done…
    But I have 2 beautiful incredible amazing wonderful children ❤ and the NHS in Scotland saved my life twice ❤

I'm also so proud of them for taking time off from socials for the whole family, and especially Liana to recover. Birthing is beautiful, but it is also a major, traumatic event, even without the trauma of incredible invasive surgery. Good on you both for putting your needs first.

      I relate to your fears as whilst I'm nervous to share this, I want you to feel not alone in this. I was molested as a child, at 6, then 9, then 14 by different perpetrators. So anything to do with strangers/doctors examining down there scares me, even making love with my partner rarely but has triggered flashbacks. But thankfully my partner is supportive and understanding of my past. But now at 31w and approaching labour in 6-9 weeks I'm feeling a mix of fear and confidence as the weeks pass. With enough support think it's possible, and try to think positive that, I might be okay and just focus on getting baby out and those first moments of skin to skin. I'm worried I might panic or get flashbacks if laying back or on the table for theatre, but I'm seeking the perinatal mental health midwife soon and hope with my partner's support I can focus and breathe to get baby out. I believe all abuse survivors deserve to have the life they want, whether that includes children or not, whatever that looks like for people. I hope this helps you in someway knowing you're not alone, there is support out there for the struggle, as whilst it's there it doesn't have to get in the way of doing what you want to do x
