Ina May Gaskin’s Guide to Childbirth was where I learned the importance of keeping your jaw open during childbirth due to the connection to the sphincters in the body.

100% here you on the emotional recovery taking longer. My birth was about 8.5 hours from start to my son being born. I feel like I was in shock for weeks. I look back and can tell I was a little disassociated because of the whirlwind of it! 4 years later I am still amazed at what my body was capable of! So glad you’re birth was a positive experience! Congratulations! Motherhood has you beaming with joy!

Your birth story sounds sooo similar to mine, right down to the back labor! Unmedicated labor is no joke- Great job, girl! 🫶 Hope you’re adjusting well with your sweet little girl!💕

[@lawaters95]

Ahh!! I'm so glad that you shared! I am currently 31+3 weeks and thinking about the possibility of my baby being in here like a month is INSANE! Even just thinking about them coming on time is crazy! 😂 I am planning on having my little one at a birth center with as little intervention as possible, so hearing about your experience is so fun! I'm so glad that you had Dan there to advocate for you!!! I will have my partner but we are also hiring a doula to help with anything and to advocate and educate me if needed. I'm not sure if you're planning on having anymore little ones but maybe next time you could look into a doula or midwife if you want to have another unmedicated birth, although it sounds like you rocked your first one!! 💚💕 I'd love to hear about your postpartum experience and whatever you're comfortable sharing 🥰

Beautiful story! I am 33 weeks pregnant and so curious about everyone's birth stories and I had watched a couple preterm birth vlogs that really scared me to the point where I was fearing going into preterm labor. Your video came up in a search and I was skeptical to click on your video but I am so happy I did. I feel like you alleviated a lot of my worries about going into preterm labor. Also, you have such a calming presence. Thank you for sharing your birth story!!

My first labour was pre term at 36 weeks. He was a two hour labour and it was a shock to my whole system and the biggest lifetime change I have experienced as for every new parent I am sure. I had my second baby on the side of a highway all alone...that was mind blowing!!

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Holy crap! I’d love to sit down for coffee and hear the detailed stories of both of these births 😂 you are incredible!!!!

[@lindapearson3340]

This Birth Story came out at the right time. My good friend just had a baby at 36 weeks and the baby was 6 lbs. 3 oz. & 19". He was breech so she knew that she needed a C-Section but it was scheduled for August 29th but when her water broke she knew that he wanted to come out. When she got to the hospital they told her that she was dilated to 5 cm already so they needed to move fast the get the baby out so his butt would not come out. Thank God everything worked out for the best. Your story was so beautiful and thank you for sharing this with us. Nora is a beautiful name and she has so much hair. Take good care of yourself and I can not wait for the rest of the baby story. Love your channel.

[@amnysti7768]

So so happy for you Becca! I absolutely loved hearing your birth story. It sounds like you had a total dream team & really wonderful birth experience even with the totally blindsiding early appearance - which also makes total sense on the needing to process not being pregnant anymore. I think something really happens in those last couple of weeks where one goes from being anxious about labor to I’m dooooooone so not getting that stage it’s all just “whoa what happened, I wasn’t ready for that”. Congrats again!

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Yes I definitely think that’s why I was feeling that way - I didn’t get to the “get this baby out of me!!!” stage lol 😅

[@lamnium]

Good job becca!! I gave birth to my first baby via caserean section due to fear of the pain of normal delivery... I admire your courage and endurance👏👏 and your baby being fine despite the preterm delivery!

[@laceyroberts2242]

Congrats Becca! You look great I hope you and your family are doing well! Thanks for sharing, I love hearing other birth stories. I’ve had four kids and could say soooo much on this topic. My first and third babies were born 3 1/2 weeks early and my second and fourth were induced on their due dates. All delivered with no epidural. I feel like babies just come when they’re ready and there’s no pattern whatsoever. Everyone said my next would come early then she held on until her due date. Then the first two I delivered quickly after going into labor and my 3rd I labored for 18hours, 4th came quick. Every pregnancy and birth being very different. I guess my advice for your next is to expect anything to happen! ❤

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

You’re so right, they just come when they come 🤪 I’m going to have to be mindful not to expect anything with the next - I’ve heard from so many that every pregnancy & birth is soo different.

Thank you for your birth story, Becca. 💕 Be sure to keep your original copy of this for the future. After I gave birth to my kid, the neonatal nurse for me told me to immediately make a physical note about my birthing experience because it can be such a treasured moment/anecdote to recall.

[@pudik2008]

Thank you for sharing your story,I have been hanging out to hear it! ❤ I’ve had 3 children and each birth was so different from the other. First was very long and painful as I had a back injury 2 years before that,used gas ( don’t know the name of it) for pain,2nd had an epidural and that went really well for pain and recovery, 3rd had a C Section as I had placenta Privia,that was the worst of all 3,very long and complicated recovery and severe depression for a long time afterwards, she just turned 35 years old and back then it wasn’t recognized. Your little Angel looks beautiful and so much hair like Momma! 🎉🎉🫶🏼❤️❤️

[@99rachelhoran]

This is so beautiful! We were in the same due date group, so I have been anxiously awaiting this😂😂❤️ I think that mourning period of being pregnant is really interesting, I wonder if that closure comes with when you cross the threshold to actively trying to get labor to happen, rather than needing to keep the baby in longer.

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Omg! Hahaha so cool 👋🏼 I did a little researching when I was feeling it and found that it’s a pretty common experience for premie parents for that exact reason. We’re still in the “keep them in” mindset when they’re born and never had the chance to hope for them to be out hahaha

[@tasdefeuilles]

Congratulations!! I’m glad you listened to your body and that Daniel stood up for you. I really regret letting the doctors intervene so much when I gave birth to my son, it ultimately became dangerous for him when there was no reason to give me pitocin in the beginning… hoping to have low intervention for my next one 🤞🏼

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

I have heard this a lot - it’s so easy to get wrapped up in interventions because we just want our babies to be okay. Completely understandable and I hope your next birth is exactly how you want it ❤️

[@alicewilliams9301]

Thank you for sharing your beautiful story! It sounds like you prepared very well and things flowed just as they should. I wouldn't worry too much about your future labors being super short. They will probably get shorter, but it's not an exponential curve. And they might not get shorter at all. I'm currently pregnant with my fifth, and my first labor was about six hours (possibly a couple hours longer, but six hours of knowing I was really truly in labor), and my second, third, and fourth were about the same. Babies also don't keep getting bigger every time (in case you've heard that). And I'm so glad for you that breastfeeding has gone so well. It can be such a challenge with a premie (though Nora sounds like she was basically ready). Enjoy your beautiful baby!

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Ah this is a relief to hear on both fronts! Baby size and labor time 😂 I’d love if my next one was exactly the same as Nora but of course that likely won’t happen lol. & yes thankfully it seems she was just ready and we were able to avoid a lot of the common premie things. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy! ❤️❤️

[@christinakm6619]

Thank you for sharing your story! Daniel sounds like a great husband to know when to step in and ensure your guys' birth plan went the way you intended. 😊 I wish I could've had my daughter naturally, but after hours and hours of pushing, my doctor realized my cervix is curved which required me to be rushed into having a c-section. 😔 I did reach the same conclusion as you during that experience, I don't care who is in here and who sees what, lol...at that point it really doesn't matter and they've seen so much more than we can possibly know. 😊 Glad to hear things have been going well with your sweet addition. Nora is a beautiful name. ❤

This was such an amazing story! My first was an induction at 41+5. I labored unmedicated for 15 hours without progressing and I can totally relate when you said you didn’t know what actual labor would look like even though you were prepared. It ended up being an intervention and medicated labor but I’m praying my next baby (due Jan 2024) can be similar to your experience. Soooo cool to hear about FER!!! Thank you for sharing your story, hopefully my next one is as awesome as yours 😌

[@jamface11]

Beautiful ❤ My son was born 6th June 23. I found hypnobirthing so helpful and also listened to that book as well as using the positive birth company. I had a reasonably relaxed early labour. I then progressed from 5cm to birthing my son in just over an hour so the breathing definitely went out the window at that point. I remember the relief when I felt the urge to push that the transition was over. The fetal ejection reflex is the craziest sensation! It felt to me like trying to throw up out the other end 😂 My midwife didn't make it back in time (home birth) so he was caught by my husband with my mum helping. He was in a rush and was birthed completely in one push after only a few 2nd stage contractions. Everyone was healthy and we stayed home. A positive experience once I got over the shock 😂

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Oh my gosh!!! That must’ve been the craziest hour of your life 😂 it really is the biggest relief when it’s time to push. Finally get to do something with all of those contractions! So glad everything ended up being okay for you and how cool that your husband caught the baby!❤️

[@regi985]

Hi, congratulations to both of you and all the best to the little family. My daughter took the pacifier when she was 3 month old, we tried a few different forms and ended on one that is just straight (so feel free to try out different ones). And I agree it´s important to have the partner informed about your plans or concerns, I let mine know I don´t want my mom in the delivery room and that I´m not sure if I want a epidural. He was very supportive and made sure my concerns are head and I get the information I needed. I also had the added trouble of not be in my home country, so I was worried I would not understand something in the stress. But it all went well and my partner was a awesome support. So talk with them before hand and just ask them to do stuff if you need anything and also ask the midwife/nurse/doctor what ever you want to know or if you need something.

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Great advice!! So glad your partner was also a great advocate for you☺️

My first baby at 36 and 1 day. I've had two other babies since and it was definitely different then going to full term like i did with the other two. My third was at 37 weeks and even that few extra weeks gave me a little bit more closer on pregnancy. When it ends so suddenly there can definitely be some emotional support needed to heal.

[@hollyhasegawa6095]

Oh Becca you had a really beautiful birth story. And I really love her beautiful name it is so gorgeous. Both of my children were very short births from start to finish. My water never broke it had to be started when I went into labor. My daughter was due on the 10th of June and was born on the 7th, from the start to finish I was in labor with her for 4 hours total, and she weighed 5lbs 12 1/2 ounces, and was 18 1/2 inches long. I had a natural birth and no drugs. My son was born in less than 2 hours, and was due on the 20th of January and was born on the 14th, 7lbs 4ozs, 20 1/2 inches long. No drugs with him either, both of my children were easy to have and the only pain I had was in my lower back and I used rubber balls on my lower back to help with the pain. I am sure that your next baby will be a shorter birth time. Thanks so much for sharing your birth story and it is so wonderful to see her, she has a lot of hair that is dark like yours. Both of my kids had a lot of hair also. Enjoy the rest of your day, sending love and hugs, bye! 😂😍🤗👨‍👧👩‍👧👶👶👋💜💜💜

[@littleheaven70]

Thank you for sharing your story ❤ It certainly brought back memories for me - my son was born at 34/6 and was also delivered quite fast. I went through the mourning phase too. I remember crying in the shower before I went into the hospital because I wasn’t finished with being pregnant. I hadn’t even finished work! Thank goodness my water didn’t break 24 hours later or I would have been sitting at my desk in the office 😂 Unfortunately my post-birth experience wasn’t great. I didn’t get the golden hour, because my son was taken to NICU after about 10 minutes, and then I haemorrhaged and ended up having emergency surgery. But it was all worth it. My son is now 16 years old and 6 feet tall. Much taller than his mama 😅

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

That was exactly how I felt, like I missed out on a part of pregnancy and wasn’t ready to be done! & wow that sounds really scary - you are incredible! So much respect for mothers and what they do to deliver their babies.❤️

[@littleheaven70]

@@BeccaDeLaCreations Thank you! All mamas are amazing 😍 I was so mad I missed out on my four weeks of sitting with my feet up saying “I want this baby out!”, lol. And I missed all the pre-natal class lessons on how to care for baby 😢 I actually bumped into my class members doing their pre-birth tour of the hospital while I was in NICU., which was jarring. But all that fades in time and those feelings of loss are replaced by wonderful memories ❤️

[@mykaelaorwig9646]

Ohhhh my word I can so relate to losing control during the ring of fire!!! I’ve had two babies at home, both were 16.5 hour labors, and I pushed for 2.5 hours with both.

Definitely, I’m so glad I had a positive experience to share ❤️ I have pinned about a million of those on Pinterest so I definitely will be making one! I’ll show the process for sure :)

I love this for you! And glad it turned out so well!! 😂 for a split second I wanted to have a third so I could labor without an epidural.

Thank you so much for sharing. I love how you spoke about your experience personally as well as the miracle of birth and what our bodies can do. I’m going to reply in detail via IG message. No need to reply. 💝 Congratulations on everything!

Maybe comment on my most recent post so I can find your profile and look at the message! I’m not seeing it in my inbox now - IG has a tendency to bury messages 😭

My first daughter was a 10 hour labor with epidural, and my second was a 3 1/2 hour labor unmedicated on my birthday. My water broke first with both of mine

Lucky baby got Momma's gorgeous hair!

Aww thank you!!

[@emmaharris8529]

Beautiful birth story! Just one thing I'm confused about. Did they put you on pitocin, or were you able to labor without it?

[@BeccaDeLaCreations]

Thank you :) I did not need pitocin! Labor progressed without it quickly.

@@BeccaDeLaCreations wow!! That is amazing! Congratulations! 😊

Postpartum period can go on for a longgggg time 😭 just to normalize that we can actually stay depressed for a year or so after. It’s so common and so hard

Congratulations 🎉

I too live in Columbia, MO! Do you mind sharing the doctor's name you had? I want to have it on my list for when my fiancé and I decide to start our family sometime next year.

Dr. Lombardo! She’s amazing.
