      You trolling? I think almost none of them would faint. Like literally barely any. Fainting in general is a really rare occurrence for humans, real life isn’t a Hollywood movie, lol.
      At my most shocked moment while my wife was giving birth to my daughter all I did was raise my eyebrows and open my eyes wide. Other than that I was there comforting her the whole way through.

    I was induced with my daughter and gave birth without an epidural, and for whatever reason I feel so much shame (even now, almost four years later) about how I felt I didn't cope well with the pain, how distressed I was, how loudly I screamed. Watching this video brought tears of absolute admiration to my eyes and has made me rethink my labour experience.
    I'm 25 weeks pregnant with our son now and this has really helped me to feel empowered and proud that I've done this once (induction contractions are like NOTHING I've ever experienced and there was no time to prepare for them), so I can certainly do it again.

      @@Zoethechoirkid Well with an epidural you don't have pain anymore but it's just SUPER intense, the feeling of pressure is very overwhelming and I felt like something was stuck down there. Like a bowl movement but x 1000 and like you are constipated but at the same time feel intense waves of pressure. It was extremely unpleasant and I felt very anxious and like I couldn't do it. I preferred the pain of contractions. That being said I got an epidural at 3 cm, not because I couldn't deal with the pain anymore, it was still manageable but because I did not want to "feel everything" later on. And I'm glad I got it! Would have been so much worse if I had had to handle horrible contractions at the same time as what I described.The pain of contractions when you are more dilated is horrendous from what I hear. I mean I never understand when people are surprised by how much pain they are in during labour, I'm always like "duh, you think women screaming as if they were possessed happens for no reason" lol.

I was not expecting to feel the ring of Fire with an epi.

I hope to labor at home, then give birth unmedicated at the hospital with a midwife, so this video is exactly what I want to see! Thank you for sharing your whole experience. It's so helpful for me as a first-timer to see what it could look like: loud, strong, empowering, humbling. I'm praying for a similar experience for our little family in a few weeks!

I felt so much remorse like I was the dad, resentment for the pain, the desperation of "just pull her out!" The happiness of knowing she was about to go through the hardest most rewarding experience of her life, the feeling of needing to save her, hold her., To just make it stop... And I've had 4 myself.

Thank you so much for making this vlog, I hope just like me, other first time moms watch this whole video and becomes inspired and feel more comfortable with the idea of giving birth with no medication if they are still iffy and indifferent on the options they have before the due date comes closer🙏🏼❤️ my name is Melissa, my man’s name is Kristian, and we are currently 17 weeks and 3 days pregnant on April 11th, 2024 and our due date is September 16th, 2024 and we can’t wait to meet our son, Milo❤️ plz like my comment so I can continue to come back to this video and update you guys on my journey🫶🏼

    I am 35 and pregnant with my first, and going for a natural homebirth (hopefully) I have watched your vlog twice now and its just so raw and beautiful. Your screams during delivery go right into the soul, and its super powerful to see and be a part of. Thank you for posting this! I hope I have a labour like yours!

    I'm 37 weeks pregnant... And terrified but at the same time really ready for our little girl. This video really gave me some courage. Thank you so much.

    This is the most emotional video I've ever seen!! I started crying when the midwife said the head is out. You did an amazing job Nikole!! Sage i's such a cutie 😍😭. I'm 15weeks pregnant now and watching this video makes me even more stronger in having a normal delivery. Thank you so much Nikole for this!! Really helps. ❤️❤️❤️

    Thank you so much for this video! Must videos don't show the raw and difficult parts so thank you for not cutting them out. It made me cry so much and I could feel your pain.. I"m having my first baby (I'm 33weeks) with a natural birth and this was truly inspiring to watch. You have a beautiful family
