[@Leslie2-g7v]

[@rmcc42]

81 here and yep, I was crying the whole 25+ minutes. Congratulations to both of you! Oh, and my GRANDAUGHTER is getting married in a couple months, and I am just hoping I am around long enough to hold a GREAT Grandchild in my arms!

[@trebblerunner9486]

68-year-old momma here. I had a c section with my first and eight years later gave birth to my second son in what we refer to as a natural birth. Both of my boys weighed just over ten pounds at birth. My number two is Robert William, and we call him Billy because his father's name is Robert as well. I cried watching this video. Tears of joy. Joy for your experience and joy for the memory of my experience.

[@cathymarshall8327]

Oh my gosh so did I! I can't figure out why. Guess it's a mother thing.

[@carlop7304]

Trent, you said ,"all I did was hold her hand". No my friend, you did more than you can ever imagine for the love of your life, you were with her through every pain through every groan, through that last big push.

[@Jimelcock]

80 year old man, Retired, past Ambulance Attendant, EMT, Jaws of Life operator. Thank you for sharing this wonderful event.

[@amberm3193]

Thank you for sharing, such a beautiful personal moment. Dad was an awesome supporter! Congratulations!

[@thrivingnow7843]

I cried, too. Millions of women have home births. I was one of 6 home births my mother had in the high desert of Oaxaca, Mexico. Sometimes , the midwife arrives after the birth. I had 2 babies born in hospital. Allie, you had a great support team including a wonderful supportive husband. Great job !

[@jacquelinelindsey8416]

As my mother would say, giving birth is the worst pain you will never remember...You all did a beautiful job to help bring this little human into the world. Thank you for allowing me to share in your joy. Congratulations!

[@jacquelinelindsey8416]

My mother was saying that the joy a new life brings overrides the pain that each contraction creates to bring that little human into our hearts and into our lives.

[@Tina-jh2sk]

I like that “ the worst pain you will never remember “, not heard it before and it is oh so true…

[@2023Pete]

OMG! I'm a 70 year old man and I also cried like a baby throughout the entire process. Welcome to the world baby brother!!! You two are amazing and you have such an amazing support crew. Congratulations Allie, Trent, Leo and the whole gang. I love to watch your lives together, all the ups and downs and you persist through it all. Congrats again and I can't wait to watch the two boys grow up together in your wonderful family.

[@alicecain4851]

Yes! I'm 60 and although I suffer from several chronic illnesses, I feel that I'll be around for quite a while to see these little ones grow up. It should be pretty exciting! 🎉🎉🎉

[@annathompson4621]

Im about to give birth to my second son and watching your toddler meet your baby caused me to start bawling. So sweet. Thank you for sharing

[@hairyscotman]

Please, don't think for a second your Mom wasn't there....I felt her presence throughout....

[@AngelBluff]

[@susanvaughan4210]

As a believer in reincarnation, I think it possible (or likely) that Billy is Leslie's new journey. : )

[@divinewrath3142]

I felt the same way. I have no doubt Leslie was there with them. Smiling her big beautiful smile on her newest granbaby. I am glad that Jennifer was there as well, she has incredible mom energy♥

[@chrisconnell9505]

Being a dad of 3 girls, having 8 grand kids, the miracle of life never ceases to amaze me! Watching Trent and Leo comforting you was very beautiful! Congratulations!!! You're a ROCKSTAR!!

[@joannegerrard9414]

I was thinking of Leslie the whole time, she was there Allie, sending out loving vibes the whole time. My mom never physically met my daughter 25 years ago, but she was there and still is with us. Congratulations to all!

I’ve already commented about Allie, but I have to say something about Jennifer. She really cares for Leo and is a wonderful person. She’s the rare sort of person that makes the world much better. I really admire her!!!!!!! 😊

[@kathic8823]

Same! I am continually amazed by her patience, stamina, and loving presence! I don't have it in me, so I don't know how she does it. Ahgaga is an inspiration in every episode.

[@unclewilbur8976]

@kathic8823 She is very attentive and careful with Leo while all the construction goes on. She's obviously a loving person. She's wonderful... I'd marry her!!! 😃

[@ROBINstrawBERRYwine]

Yes I totally agree,she is a beautiful person inside and out ❤

[@repaid1]

I'm just a 60 year old Marine, and I gotta tell you Allie...You are a legend to do that. You trumped Trent and gang putting up those 12 X 12's by a mile...what a super mom you are!!! My wife was a RN in the NICU. She wanted our son to be born naturally, but about a hour before the actual birth she was screaming for the epidural! I can't tell you how much I think this video highlighted the wonder of birth. In fact you guys win a Emmy in my eyes for this video.... as we say in the Marines....OUTSTANDING! God bless you and yours and take it easy and rest with your newest addition (And no, I don't mean any of the house build!🧑‍🍼👼👩‍🍼👨‍🍼)

[@RiverWoods111]

This is several weeks behind. They stayed home and spent some time with the new baby and Leo for a couple of weeks. So don't be surprised if they are back at the house next week. I understand they didn't film that much, but I don't know for sure.

Well Monday the 12th of Aug, little Billy will be a month old. They did a great job filming ahead. Excellent job.

Both of my wonderful children were born at home more than 40 years ago. The comfort of home, support of a skled midwife, and the loving presence of my loving husband, still to gether 48 years, made it all worth it. Congratulations and welcome to the world, sweet baby!

[@GwenArlene8181]

Yes, women have been doing this at home for years until the 1950's, when my mother had us, twins. She did it at the hospital and was pretty much knocked out for the birth. Then, she chose not to nurse us, as we were a month premature. So, I didn't get off to the best start but at least I was healthy, still am, thanx to good living.

[@melodywright9466]

Congratulations! Your birth team was exceptional. I have never been one to embrace home births. But things have come along way and the team was so supportive and strong for both of you. Having babies back in the day was natural but you were on your own. Laboring without all that support. Trent was a rock star in his support and love. And Jennifer....what a blessing to have her in your life! She has stepped in and has become a much loved member of your family. I worried about you Allie without your Mom. But Jennifer has been a comfort Mom and has fulfilled an empty spot on your heart. She loves Leo and Leo loves her. She loves you and Trent and the two of you love her. She has been just what you have needed. I have to say I cried through the whole video. I miss those days of bringing a baby into the world. There is nothing like it. I wish you all beautiful memories and joy beyond measure!

It is almost too hard to type through the emotions. Thank you to allow us to be witness to this magical time, Bless all of you. I am responding late because I let weeks go by so I could binge watch 6 weeks in a row. Allie, you did an amazing job. I love the name and the respect of family names.

[@williamkelley5927]

I’ve been waiting patiently for this episode since the announcement of the pregnancy. There’s nothing more beautiful and exciting than to witness such an amazing miracle. Having been in law enforcement, I had the unexpected privilege of delivering two babies, one being during the eye of hurricane HUGO in the middle of the highway. I handled it like a champ, THEN it was time for my own to be delivered. I cried like a baby and became very emotional because of the pain my wife suffered during birth. Thank God for my Mother in law was in the delivery room. Needless to say that I’m honored that you shared this experience with us all from around the globe. Needless to say, I whimpered with every push and began to bawl with his entry into the world. Congratulations, Congratulations, Congratulations !!!

[@Highvibes777]

I'm going to be honest here. This 70 year old is not and never have been a baby fan. I always say "Call me when you're 4". I have been at 2 hospital births to 2 beautiful girls. I always wanted to experience a home birth. I absolutely cried the entire time. It was such a beautiful experience. You guys are so brave and sharing this is an incredible gift. Blessings to Billy!

[@kathymullins8800]

When you, Allie, talked about giving birth at the same time as so many other women across the world, I couldn't hold back the tears. While I watched you, Trent, sitting patiently, supporting Allie physically and mentally, I was taken back to over 29 years ago when my now late husband showed the same love to me and our daughter at the same point in our lives. Thank you for sharing this very personal time.

Who's crying? Shut up, I'm not crying. You're crying. That was soooo beautiful. Congratulations and many wishes for a long, healthy, happy, and amazing life together. Beautiful!

I cry every time I hear that guttural wail on the last push. I’ve had 4 natural births and I’m so happy you were able to have a home birth. Thank you for normalizing this. Home birth is such a beautiful thing and if you can do it, do it! Nothing better than having your baby at home and then settling into home with baby. 🥰

We did a home birth with our second daughter in 1979 using the Bradley Method. Had our doctor and her nurse there and everything went perfect. I got to catch her coming out and I cut the cord. About 8 hours later our doctor asked if we were up to coming to a meeting of people interested in using her and we showed up and it was really cool.

[@Spence32422]

Both our births have been natural at home too! It was especially awesome with the 2nd one, our first slept through it and woke up to a new sibling!

[@LiberLady]

​@jerryd1813 yes! The Bradly Method is how we delivered our 3 boys, but we did it in the hospital. No IV, no meds at all. (Our 2nd & 3rd are fraternal twins.) Best experiences ever!

What a wonderful, beautiful narration you shared with us; and, the love Trent gave you. What a lovely team of all evolved. Such tears of joy and love. Congratulations to the wonderful parents and family.

Today, August 9, is my 70th birthday, and this video was a present of great joy for me! Thank-you for sharing your journey with us. William Elliott was born into a wonderful and loving family! I can’t wait to see him introduced to the rest of your family, especially Trent’s grandpa. You are amazing parents and partners. Welcome to the world, Billy!

[@trishmiller3086]

You. Are. AMAZING! It felt too private to be included but yet incredibly grateful you let us into your labor and delivery journey. Wishing God’s blessings on your family. ❤

[@aidiaa]

Not only did you do amazing, I cried when Billy came out. I wasn’t expecting that, but I guess you guys are my friends and I felt the joy. Bless your family, thank you for bringing us with you!

[@dorisward2629]

God bless you all on your new baby boy! Sending God's love & strength to you Allie.🙏❤️🌹

[@nicolegriffo6150]

Beautiful. My mom passed the month I found out I was pregnant with my first child. I felt her presence the whole way through. Protecting us. I know your mom did the same. Congratulations 🥳 🎉❤

[@lionelm5151]

Allie, Trent, Leo, Jennifer and Billy, you made a lot of folks cry today with tears of joy. We love you all and thank you so much for sharing your lives with us. Allie you are so special...we love you.

[@maintainingmegan9088]

I cried my eyes out for Leo and now for Billy! Allie you are a rockstar. Thank you for sharing your birth story with us! Trent your a great husband!

[@sibylkat]

82 year old mom of two here who is still crying from joy. I’m feeling we are unbelievably blessed to share this home birth. Really, Allie, you are to be respected for your love and strength. You are the team leader, there is no doubt. Same respect for Trent and fortunate little Leo who is growing into a very fine young gentleman.

[@martinlarkin3587]

The absolute best "construction" video to date. And Trent and Allie, you did great.

[@rhudson31]

Allie, you are amazing! I cried through the entire thing. Your mom held him for as long as she could, and then sent him on his way with her sweet love. Trent, don’t sell yourself short. You didn’t just hold her hand, it’s one of the hardest things to stand by the one that you love while in they’re in pain and know that there’s nothing you can do but be there for them. You did an amazing job as well! Leo, you have a big job ahead being the big brother, but you will do well. I cried doubly hard while I watched him rubbing your arm like his dada was doing, he’s already a sweet, loving, caring person. Welcome little Billy! Congratulations to all of you!🎉❤

[@kathyhelmold7358]

Oh my gosh guys what a beautiful birth. Allie you did amazing❣️❣️❣️Trent you were present and there for Allie. The video will be watched many times over I’m sure. Leo was the sweetest rubbing mama’s arm next to you. He’s going to be an amazing big brother. Congratulations to all of you and god bless. Thank you for including us on this video❤❤❤

[@dsop66]

I am a father of 4 and I only got to see a glimpse of my oldest being born naturally. I wasn’t there for my second(long story) and my two others were both C section. I am so awestruck by the miracle of childbirth and the incredible beings that you are as women. I can’t say anything that would even scratch the surface as to how incredible women are. You give up so much to be our wives, our mothers, and you are all to be leased and highly exalted. Thank you for sharing your story with us all. Love you guys.

[@brenbranyou]

My 86 year old mother and I just watched this. I cried through the entire video. I've never seen anything more beautiful in my life . I love your family as if you all were my own. I've watched you from the beginning of your journey, and it brings me such joy. When Leo was soothing you, it took me over the top. Trent was so loving and calm....so beautiful! Jennifer is a great blessing for all. We love you guys. Even if we've never met, you ARE a part of my family. Congratulations. ❤ 🤗

[@carolleenkelmann3829]

My feet dropped through the floor when I saw, as a once upon a lifetime ago Midwife, you attempting an underwater, Home birthing process. Bravi. How wonderful. This method of delivery was coming into Vogue just as I was starting my midwife education. Congratulations on your decision and your endurance. I can't help but get all choked up.

[@CherylAnderson-qs4iq]

Like everything else, you did this with family & friends, including all of us, teary-eyed, smiling, amazed with your courage, and feeling in the midst of your love, as a couple. You both did this and earned this. ❤

[@lisalove6660]

So touching and beautiful. Allie did a great job being present and riding the waves of sensation. Thank you for bringing us along. Leo was so precious! Dada offered great support, keeping the focus on Allie. Welcome baby William! 🎉

[@johnmetzker7625]

Congratulations!!! Allie, you did GREAT! This 65 year old man was crying too. Nothing in this life is more beautiful than the birth of a child.
