Birth Story/Vlog of our 11th baby ❤️ It was a miracle! (but the journey was scary...) + her name 🥰

[@thegoodfight426]

So typical of Amber to have been kept up all night and still notice the beauty all around her!!!! This is one of the main reasons I watch this channel! Her positivity is divine!!! 💜

I am in tears. They all are so wonderful with their little sister. God is so good!

[@amorgan8040]

Awe Amber and family, what an amazing video with images of great love from beginning to end that brought tears to my eyes. Pearl's sheer joy when holding Neta for the first time💖, Elijah's 'tude' (lol) turning to great emotion and then tears of joy😭, Josiah being the leader holding down the fort and getting all the kids to the hospital 💪 , Melody with rain soaked hair and teary eyes because she's been patiently waiting but can't see over the bassinette😢, the flash of Noah's grin when he hears that Neta looks just like him🥰, Anna and Chloe being little mama's to darling Moses so he doesn't feel left out💞, Enoch always so thankful even for the hospital toothpaste☺, Naomi singing beautifully to Neta at the close of the video💝, Marc being so supportive to you and tender to all the kids being introduced to Neta😇 , and you Amber exhibiting such grace throughout and so kind to all of us by sharing Neta's birth story.🙏 I couldn't wait for the video and it was worth the wait! Loved it!♥

[@pattys7429]

Elijah’s response “I’m going to cry” was so sweet. Mark was so concerned and helpful.

[@GeorgiaPeach87]

😭 he made me cry.

[@amorgan8040]

That really got me too.😭 What a good young man he is!♥

[@daughterofgod3721]

[@wandadejesus3529]

Me too, and Pearl, she was so excited and emotional Such a beautiful family ❤ God bless you all

[@nichellevallery6502]

Elijah crying had me crying that was the sweetest thing. Such a beautiful blessed family. ❤

[@JOHN3n16]

Being one of 11 kids myself , I teared up through the whole video! Most precious little Netta! She is so sweet and loved! Congratulations! Amber it is amazing that you took the subway home right after giving birth! Your middle name should be grace! Because God surely has poured grace upon you! Mark you are a loving husband and father! I can see how each child is so loved!❤

[@Grammichal]

There’s a wonderful documentary called “Babies.” The Mongolian mom hops on the back of her husband’s motorcycle and away they go with the newborn in her arms!! Look for the show. ✌🏽

[@xenotschu]

We road the subway and ferry the day we went home.

[@cynthiaannblaha5127]

Do not be hard on yourself. You were the mom of 10, now 11. That takes a toll on your nerves and ability to manage stress. I am stressed just watching you and Mark go back and forth to the hospital via subway! I have been praying for you all week and am praising God for His faithfulness. All the children are so loving and interested in her. It is very heartwarming. Love Naomi’s song for Neta! Congratulations and continued prayers!

[@karenboden587]

Elijah getting emotional was everything ❤️

[@kariwebb5523]

Elijah being emotional was beautiful. Naomi singing to the baby was so beautiful. Thank you for telling us your birth story, she is beautiful. Congratulations!!

[@bonitahugo6516]

As a retired labor and delivery nurse I appreciate your beautiful story especially how prioritizing active labor mothers have to come before inductions. So many get upset when they get bumped. We cannot control volume like a restaurant. We want to provide safe care for everyone. You have such a beautiful family and such well behaved children. God has truly blessed you and your husband because you are a shining example of what great parents are!

[@wjb-wi6dt]

A friend had to call several days to see if there was room for her planned c-section - previous 2 babies had been too large for her to deliver and she ended up needing a c-section after laboring for hours in each case, so they planned to just start there with their last baby. I know it had to be frustrating, but each morning she got a "not today" she just reminded herself that she could safely wait another day - and wouldn't it be awful to take care someone in a crisis delivery needed. But another of our friends didn't get this and kept wanting to argue that she was "in line first" and the other women delivering should have to wait. As if spontaneous labor can just hang out on the sidelines until that mom's number is called!

[@China-Clay]

Any thoughts on that red mark across the ribs? Super interesting 🤔

[@jackielongnecker1089]

This is the first time I’ve seen your family and you all are so amazing. I can not imagine living in NYC and walking and taking the subway to doctor’s appointments and the hospital. I’ve had 5 babies and don’t think I could have done that. I live in the south and we drive everywhere. Can’t believe you took the subway home. Don’t think I could have walked a block after having a baby. God bless all of you!

[@stacieadams1403]

Elijah and his tender heart is so sweet. Your house is going to be full of grandchildren one day and they all know how to love and what is most important in life family

To me and the experiences we have gone through trying to have a child, Every baby born is a miracle. I don't think most really understand how complex getting pregnant and keeping the pregnancy really is! We had six miscarriages, went through IVF, only to find out I had endoderdometriosis so bad I had to have a hysterectomy. We went with adoption at the ages of 40 and 39. Our beautiful Son is now 21 years old. We were on cloud nine for years! I prayed and prayed for a child, God graced us with this beautiful soul. Your story is so beautiful, so gracious. Your whole family reminds me of the family I grew up in. My Mother came from a family of 18 children. This was back in the 1930s. I am sure you can imagine how many cousins I had to play with!! There were a lot of us! Most of the children of 18 are now gone, and all of us kids are in our 50s and 60s.. I just remember some of my fondest memories are when babies were born all of us kids wanted to see the baby and hold them. Thank-you so much for bringing that back for me. And it is a true miracle you had the doctor you did at this birth! Out of all the births I have heard of, I have never heard of the cord going around the belly i.e. torso. You all have a very blessed day and Happy New Year!

[@patsysantiquesandcollectibles]

Such a loving and caring family. Naomi singing to Netti and Moses walking up and kissing her on the forehead. So so precious!

What a beautiful video!! Neta is so precious!! You are such a strong woman Amber and so full of faith. Mark is so protective and she seems to know that. At a point after the birth, when the nurses where attending to her it looks like she's reaching for him. All the kids reactions were just beautiful!!

This world isn’t a true mess when we still have families teaching our future the true meaning of life. God bless and welcome! ❤🙏

What I'm impressed with is the amount of walking and stairs you have been doing! Wow, Induced labor is the hardest thing. I have only had 3 children and the last was induced and no spinal, it was all natural, left hand in a cast and so much pain. I couldn't believe it. I am 70 now and she is 43 years now so life is great,

[@mruggier0]

As a retired L&D RN of 25 years I have never seen a line across an abdomen from cord compression. Thank God she arrived when she did and is healthy as you are. So beautiful to see all the children so happy with her arrival. A suggestion is no lifting of Moses. Let him crawl into your lap to snuggle. Limit your activity. Try to rest for a few weeks and eat and drink fluids. I understand with many children it may be difficult but it is important. Congrats!

[@TheHappyCaravan]

Thank you for the advice! Yes even the doctors were confused. I’m just so grateful they were looking out for her. God really kept her safe.

I love seeing the boys you're raising. There are so many toxic influences in our society it's so refreshing to see boys that still engage with their emotions. Marc is definitely father of the year every year for the example he sets! 💖 Also the nostalgia I've felt following your hospital trips through your pregnancy was intense. I went to John Jay & the main buildings are across from that hospital but it was Roosevelt hospital when I was in college. For weeks I watched & was like "I know where she is but don't know where Mount Sinai West is!" Then I googled & saw it changed hands, lol. Does the sidewalk by the Time Warner building at thd subway entrance still sparkle at night? I thought that was the coolest thing that. So happy you & Neta are in good health 💖

[@ramseagles]
