My Labour & Delivery Story | Samantha Maria

[@katkhan6049]

Your description of your labour and delivery is so much more real than other youtubers (like Mimi Ikonn).

[@bubbles574]

Kat Khan their story made me so angry, for the sake of being "natural" they went through all that pain, doctors and midwives know what their doing

[@magneramy]

mimi is an absolute idiot though, so is alex.

[@marginandcolumn]

The way Mimi and her idiot husband dismissed all the medical professionals who were trying to HELP them was truly disgusting.

[@marginandcolumn]

@M M - No, they're idiots for not taking professional medical advice and nearly put the life of their child at risk.

[@magneramy]

M M have you even watched the video? They said they knew better than the doctors and didn't need to listen to them despite the risk to he health of their child. They're idiots.

[@ashleym6454]

THE INTRO IN GOING TO CRY 😩 you're the first KZbinr I watched and now you're engaged and have a baby unbelievable

[@rosierose5735]

I say have every pain killer going! Seriously, why is there such a negative attitude to pain killers? If you choose not to have anything good for you but it does not make you better! I had 12hrs of contractions on top of each other and then due to high blood pressure had an epidural and praise the Lord, it was bloody brilliant! Well done sammi, she is gorgeous, oh and Jason too!! Daddies get forgotten about!

[@KrystalsKash]

I agree with you, I don't know why theres such a stigma attached to having pain relief. So many times I hear people say negitive things about it! Its your body, have what you like to make yourself more comfortable, your having a baby for goodness sake!

[@joayeo]

Totally agree. I had a wonderful midwife who said you don't get an award if you have no pain relief. I'd heard horror stories of friends labours, mine was wonderful, obviously had pain but after an epidural was so calm and peaceful, and I was walking around just after.

[@EtainRiera]

The reason many women choose to not use pain relief like epidurals during labour is because there is risks attached to using them that can affect the mother and the baby. I respect women who choose to use pain relief and those who choose to use none, we shouldn't demonise either one of these women.

[@AmazinGraceXOXO1]

Twiggy Rose most people dont realize that by the time the drug even gets into your blood stream the baby will be out.and for people that think Epidural gets you drugged up. i dont know what kind of epidural they be getting cause mine totaly saved me! it made me numb but to where i could actually enjoy and participate in what was happening, rather than being almost unconscious from the pain.. i was FULLY there. Aware. and it was magical. I experienced the birth of my daughter and it was calm, and soothing and truly memorable. my first child i will always remember it as a nightmare. i remember screaming and crying and the whole experience was tarnished. i just wanted baby the fuck out. So people dont understand not everyone feels the same, some people need a little help.theres nothing wrong with that. I mean they came out with this stuff so women didnt have to suffer while doing the most beautiful thing in the world. Trust me it wont get your baby high. Why do people think that? By the time it got there,baby would be out in your arms anyway. Besides with all the law suits you think doctors are gona get your baby high?

[@chloecraig3012]

Twiggy Rose I gave birth with no pain relief, and honestly it was great, but I totally understand and respect women who take the epidural! For me, I really just wanted to experience birth and be present for as much of it as possible. Pain was just part of the experience, not necessarily a bad thing. When my mum gave birth to me (20+ years ago) she had an epidural. She couldn't move, it prolonged labour, she ended up peeing on herself because she still couldn't feel her legs hours after birth. I was unaware epidurals are better than that now, but I really wanted to be mobile throughout and after my labour. Just a perspective from the other side!

[@JenRose]

"I felt like giving them all a care package, except one she was weird" I CHOKED SO HARD

[@ShaniMelendez]

Hahaha! Me too

[@dm-dy4ie]

Lol.omg.

[@Naptural85]

Your story made me so emotional Sammy! Congratulations!! ❤️

[@NaturalRose]

Whitneeeey

[@moonyieqt]

"I didn't poo on her head, so that's a plus" 😂😂😂😂

[@MartianBlues11]

ashli moore lol that's something that I actually would worry about too 😂

[@xrxoxo]

ashli moore that's such a Sammy thing to say too hahaha

[@Faith-sr8zw]

And here I am struggling with my period pain lol

[@ialove18]

Faith because of how bad my period pains were, I handle the contractions until I was 9.5cm. so thank you period pains!!

[@dystanyshiaka8758]

Faith lol, I'm off of mines I know how you feel.

[@paulinafrost2340]

Faith same lol

[@Yararar]

America Lily that gives me hope :') I get terrible nausea and unbearable pain every month...I literally need to lock myself up in my bedroom alone where I can scream and cry, rolling on the bed trying to find different positions to make the pain go away and fall asleep. People say that birth contractions are 1000x worse than period pains and that used to make me terrified thinking I wouldn't be able to survive through giving birth!

[@VC-ux3wb]

+Fernanda I have terrible period pains as well and my doctor said that some period pains can be extremely close to giving birth or contractions

[@serinat2181]

Indie is SO adorable!! Her little yawn omg, I'm so happy for you guys x

[@블랙스완-t7v]

I'm so glad her pregnancy went well..wish I could say the same for me. I was pregnant same time as her but unfortunately I lost the baby and had a miscarriage..one of the most hardest things to go through. My body still is recovering from it and it's been months. You are very lucky Sammy! I would never wish what I went through on anyone..this video definitely is triggering but I just had to see how you and the baby were doing. I would of had my baby just a few days after Sammy gave birth.

[@pvonich6202]

Faith wishing you healing, peace, and the ability to get back up in hope and positivity. so sorry :(

[@블랙스완-t7v]

Payden Vonich thank-you so much for the kind words. I'm still recovering from it but it has made me stronger. God bless

[@shazzielindsey1981]

Faith how far along were you?

[@neecee401100]

I'm so sorry for everything you've gone through love

[@charlottewatson7380]

Faith so sorry darling 💜😘💜

[@LaurenP0205]

I've watched you for years and to see you become a mother is so beautiful It's insane that she's already close to being a month old, time flies by so fast! x

[@federicalisi8188]

I love how you tell your experience from your personal prospective and with no presumption. Lots of mothers, after giving birth, think they know it all (like mimi ikonn) so full of themselves. You are so down to earth.

[@Tas--]

I wish you talked about your recovery process and if you had an episiotomy

[@aaahlydia]

Yes! I'm interesting in that as well and how long it takes for the bump to go down and all of that stuff!!

[@Ephemeralliberty]

DreamYourFearsAway I hope she does a Q&A maybe she'll answer this

[@chloecraig3012]

DreamYourFearsAway She didn't have an episiotomy, she'd need a doctor to do that and she gave birth with midwives.

[@chloecraig3012]

aaahlydia bump usually takes a few weeks to go down, though it happens faster if you breastfeed.

[@lovehollister149]

i'm a midwife in Scotland and midwives perform just as many episiotomy's as doctors, so the fact she gave birth with midwives doesn't affect the chance of whether she did or didn't have an episiotomy x

[@EleanorDaniels]

I've watched you since the beginning, I've grown so much you've grown so much and you've come so so far! I feel very proud to be somehow a part of your journey, you've become a truly lovely woman. All my best wishes x

[@artsncurls182]

Does anyone else see how bright and happy she is as she talks about her birth, it's absolutely beautiful !

[@Venusianjonel]

I just wanna say thank you for always remaining you throughout your whole KZbin journey you haven't changed a bit and I love you for that. You've grown mentally but you're still such a beautiful soul

[@MsDarkie93]

Omg why am I crying

[@Hey_krystle]

jahhutrt lepeed me too!! 😩

[@cutenessicat]

jahhutrt lepeed me too!

[@xburningindigo]

jahhutrt lepeed Wanna really cry? Watch the birth video... so emotional.

[@venus.the.hermit]

me too i don't even want/like babies and i'm weeping.

[@ItsKaraDenise]

jahhutrt lepeed I did too lol!

[@EsmeCarr]

Hey Mummy! She's gorgeous x

[@EsmeCarr]

beautiful moment beautiful moment....'I didn't poo on her head' lololol! Oh the memories you brought back! I'm telling you that gas & air is a beautiful thing!

[@esztertarr929]

London Afro Vegan Recipes oolll

[@solangeslaurent915]

She's beautiful ❤️🌺😍🇭🇹

[@CarlyRowena]

Welcome back gorgeous, so lovely to see you both! xxx

[@TheJazzyNation1]

My husband just walked in on the "pooing on the baby part"... I just had to pause the video and explain how that is a real thing. hahaha oh gosh.

[@TheJazzyNation1]

Congrats BTW! Indie is beautiful :-).

[@MartianBlues11]

The Jazzy Nation Lol! Men never seem to know that until they are preparing for a birth and someone tells them 😂

[@E01234]

The Jazzy Nation Like. ....actual poop? Before or after the baby comes out!

[@LolaB_AbandonedGeneration]

The Jazzy Nation OMG I had no idea that this could happen! DAMN! I'm laughing so hard haha

[@Dr.Nellah]

I'd love to hear the experience from Jason's point of view aswell like how he felt seeing you in pain and giving birth etc it would be really interesting

[@hibaada376]

Nellah Grace he made a video on his channel.. it's so beautiful

[@KaydeenMarie]

I love how I came from watching a video on your channel and finding you here. Lol.

[@AniJayy]

Yes so my boyfriend can have a sense of what could possibly happen when its time for us!

[@chiraine1]

+Hiba Ada yes but thats not telling his side. she means a proper sitdown, talking about what went through his head like this video

[@Pookie1-q2w]

she has the same eye color like you ! so pretty!

[@Thinkslikemakeup]

I never thought this would be possible, but you are even more beautiful now that you are a mother❤️😍

[@lyndseyorrr1450]

We should all have the same respect for all women going through childbirth, pain meds or not. It's a feat just going through it, in general. Just because you didn't have any drugs doesn't make you any stronger than someone who does.

[@simpleplanfan27]

Dellyiah Orrr Well put

[@c.a3887]

Wow, sam! I cannot believe that you are a mother now. Everything is so different now for you. I still remember you from 2010, so young. It amazes me to this day how your life has changed. I believe you are a few years older than I am. So, remembering you from 2010 to now really makes me feel so nostalgic. Seeing you find someone you love so deeply after everything, and then becoming a mother really makes me feel so emotional. I do not know why but I think it is because I have been following you for quite a while. And I may not know you personally but you have made a difference in my life with your videos. Not only that but also with how open you have been throughout these years. In all your videos, I have seen how you have slowly become this beautiful, self-loving woman with a big kind heart. You have transmitted that part of yourself to others, if not others, then at least to me. You have shown me to be comfortable within my skin and to be open-minded. So, thank you Sam. Thank you for shaping a piece of my life with your videos and presence in this world. If it wasn't for you, I would not be who I am today. In you, I found a "friend" I could look up to when things get messy in this life. Thank you for existing! I wish you lots of happiness and love to your new little family

[@sallyhooper2607]

This has definitely confirmed that I'm adopting.

[@Lynxca27]

such a beautiful daughter 💞

[@Lynxca27]

women are so strong!

[@charmingroyalty]

Sammy, I can't believe you're a mom now! I've been watching you since the beginning and I LOVED watching you evolve as a person. Your family is beautiful, congratulations, I wish you all nothing but the best xo

[@adisajakupovic6184]

i feel like an auntie, aww. she's so cute! love your hair btw. glad that you're back! lots of love to you and your little family ♥ x

[@prv3115]

She's SO beautiful and precious!!

[@DorisClay]

Indie Rose looks like a porcelain doll. So gorgeous!!

[@qcouple4930]

Doris OK she really does. I think her hair is red too. It's going to be great watching her grow up.

[@Nagayaa]

I don't know what causes it, but everytime I see a woman who became a mother (for the first time) they always look so gorgeous like so angelic and pure and beautiful. Even you, Sammi. You shine through this video x

[@LeahWinfield]

Okay this is so weird, i remember watching you when you first started and seeing you with a beautiful baby is so weird!! i feel like i've watched you grow up😂

[@danielamarquez2583]

leahwinfield I was just thinking that!

[@bbbeeeeetttthhhhh]

leahwinfield yeah I started watching in 2012 so I find this so weird also! 😂 but amazing x

[@dianasj]

LeahsBeautyUK omg me too! Ive been subscribed to her since she had like 500 subs 😩😂 I feel so old!

[@____yzzy]

Congrats! She is beautiful! big love from Argentina! 💕

[@floranabel]

And my labour starts at 6 am too!

[@serlomcole2958]

Bellaflorencia15 congrats too may you have a healthy baby

[@jadeallesse]

This has been the best explanation of labour I've ever watched!

[@ginamiller6754]

Congratulations!! Your Indie is absolutely beautiful!! My baby girl is 19 and I can remember the day she was born like it was yesterday. Now she is getting in all my clothes, make up and shoes. That is probably what Indie will do with all of your fashions. I read a quote. "Having a daughter is like giving birth to your best friend" I completely agree. Right now you have such a sweet little girl who gives you joy and an exhaustion like you have never felt before, and each year keeps getting better. One day you will have a besr buddy like me to go shopping with and more. Im so very happy for you and Jason.

[@makeupandallthatjas]

I'm not pregnant nor have children but I really do enjoy the pregnancy/baby videos just to have knowledge for the future if I ever decide to have a little one. Hope to see more in the future!

[@KatesBeautyStation]

She is absolutely adorable Sammi, I can't cope! 💕

[@CarreAlbers]

I want a baby now and I hate kids hahahaha

[@78jujubs]

My mum hates kids except for her own children

[@jizzypuff]

Carré Albers lol I also hate kids except my own daughter, she is a little shit tho.

[@ellaelllaellaella]

hahaha xx

[@LauraRibeiro-sj3ub]

I hate kids too, they are like little psychopaths ! but I would love my own kids only xp

[@alma1015]

Carré Albers 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@cgschorin]

Sammi, I teared up watching this. It was just so so beautiful watching you talk about your daughter, your experience, your bond with Jason, the midwives, and how inspiring the fact that millions of women have done this before you. Thank you for sharing this piece of your story with us. You'll be the most amazing mum to Indie

[@lauracrosby9165]

She has Jason's eye shape but your colour, what a beautiful mix of two beautiful humans

[@aeroangel2768]

Laura Crosby Sam is beautiful. Jason... not so much

[@sandrinmail]

Aero Angel Jason is beautiful. Inside and out.

[@noellet62able]

[@lauracrosby9165]

[@sophiasmith6111]

+Aero Angel I think Jason is handsome . & Sam is a very pretty girl. Each to their own I suppose X

[@demimarina3958]

I told myself not to cry but when you came on screen with little bubba, I started balling. She's beautiful and I'm so happy for you and Jason 😭💕

Oh Sam she's beautiful!!! you look amazing and sound so calm and happy! x

[@soraysunshine]

Oh Sammi! That made me so emotional when you were talking about how empowered you felt while pushing and how you couldn't wait to see her face. When you held her in your arms in the beginning, you look like you've been a mother your entire life. Can't wait for more updates from you, Indie Rose & Jason! (and the pups!) xx

[@Jessie11121]

Hey Samantha so I've been watching your videos for about 5 years now and seeing this in all honesty has gotten me a little emotional. I'm so proud of you. Despite what you've gone through you've stayed inspirational, beautiful inside and out. I'm so happy about this channel. So I want to thank you so much for just putting a smile on my face whenever I get online. Bless your baby, she is beautiful just like her parents! Can't wait to see how she grows up.

She's so cute! How did you and Jason come up with her name? ☺

[@Meggreene1111]

congratulations!! WHAT is that creaking throughout the video, am I going mad? is it the focus noise?

[@inksinners8075]

megan i think it's a cradle

[@pebbles9193]

megan it's the camera ahaha

[@LaurenP0205]

megan it's the camera trying to focus

[@MissRainbowSkn]

You're the best Sammi, and I don't know why but and cried with this video, especially towards the end. I think I felt strangely proud of you without really knowing you personally (apart from meeting you once in Costa next to Richmond station over 3 years ago). I think the fact that I've followed you since 2011, when both our lives were so different and from now, and seeing you grown and forming your own family... it's so bloody incredible!!! I wish you, Jason and little Indie the happiest and healthiest of years and I hope to see you around London again, this time with your little one. :)

[@justsophE]

im so sorry some people have come on here and have been so rude about Indie-Rose, she is so beautiful like a little doll, wishing You, Jason, Indie and the dogs a happy life together x

[@dominiqueb2896]

Only one minute into this video I started to tear up. Motherhood looks so good on you, you're absolutely radiating and I can't imagine how much love you must be feeling from the addition of your little one she's so beautiful ❣️congratulations to you and Jason xx

[@ArnaAlayneMorton]

I was hoping you'd say "oh it just wasn't that painful" 😭😭😭 I'm so scared of childbirth!

[@TrishaliciousTips2015]

Sammi, your description of having Indie-Rose was SO beautiful and poetic. It truly touched me and I KNOW you and Jason are going to be the best parents. Sensitive, loving souls as you both are...there is no doubt

[@jagibaba]

She is really beautiful, congratulations mummy and daddy 💕

[@VivienneGucwa]

Omg. She is SO CUTE!!!!!! Such a little doll!!!! This is amazing. Got so emotional. Huge congrats Sam and Jason and Indie :).

You're glowing and she's so cute! Thanks for sharing your story

[@chloeisabella5022]

This was soooooooo positive and lovely to hear how you said you would already do it all again and the pain was all worth it so don't be scared.. for girls about to become mummy's! You're glowing, you just look like you're full of love. I'm so happy for you :)! Xxxxxx

[@Chapinaa420]

I cried so much just now.. I've been watching you since forever and been away from KZbin since my daughter turn 1 three years ago.. I am proud of you for overcoming your traumas and I congratulate you my friend, my Sister😊 May God bless your home, your relationship, your family, your soul... I'm so happy and proud of you 😍😍😍

[@katherineamelia98]

I was so excited to see this in my sub box 💕💕

[@MoeshaODonkor]

Thought I'd comment now because I'm 30 seconds in and I'm already crying 😭 It's just so weird and wonderful because you were one of the very first KZbinrs I ever watched sooo many years ago and you've inspired me so much, even in starting my own channel, and it's like watching an older sister. Indie is so beautiful ❤️

[@shasut2071]

She's beautiful, just like her mom. So happy for you and Jason.

[@elliechandler473]

Jason's Birth Video was honestly stunning, moved me to the point of tears so incredible. Congratulations to the both of you on such a beautiful baby❤

[@BauAshley]

This is my favorite channel on KZbin. You have been so real and consistent. Such a sweet person, when I watch your video I feel like a friend, not a viewer. Just really love the content you put out and you haven't changed. Congrats on your new little family ❤

[@amyamy1507]

Question for my therapist: Is my subconscious trying to tell me something by watching all of these labour videos while being a 'sworn off men' 24 year old? 😂😂

[@amyamy1507]

P.S. It's lovely to see how happy you are!

[@YPM498]

hmm I think so 😉

[@CLM1988]

Visualise and write down who you want in your life. have faith dear. all the best wishes x

[@eimeare07]

[@AbbieMrvic]

Eeeeep so excited! You look glowing babe! So happy for you xx

[@iivajin]

I had my baby naturally, no medication or anything, but I only labored for 2 hrs. Not bragging in any way. It was weird because it felt like I was in labor for 6 hrs. Congratulations Sammy!! She's gorgeous! 😄

[@CapriPari]

don't know why but within the first few seconds i was so touched. i started tearing up. your smile is so loving and glowing. ahhh so emotional

[@gbnas]

Holy crap. This makes me want to simultaneously have a child or not ever. Either way, thank you for being so honest and real and not shying away from talking about your labor!

[@TianiWeightman]

I nearly spat out my tea when you said 'they were all so lovely and felt like giving them a care package after..apart from one she was weird' omg😂 indie is so beautiful!!😍

[@ayo.mp4]

i LOVE how liberated you are in this video .. congratulations girl x

[@keiranward6]

Aww she's a little angel 👼🏼 Sammie I So excited to see what cloths your now going to be wearing so could you do like a clothing haul of new cloths you been buying and how u will style them . Your looking as beautiful as ever too xxx

[@puffball4484]

It's so nice that you guys have options over in the UK. Here in America SO MANY hospitals only give you the option of being on your back with your feet in stirrups. Anything else isn't covered by insurance or isn't available at all.

[@laurenkahre4785]

Puff Ball know your rights! It's important to fight for the birth you want, you can be in any position you want!

[@MiniDress360]

Lauren Kahre that's true, but when you're in labour you cant fight. You're kind of busy.

[@puffball4484]

Yes and doctors can use the fact that you're vulnerable to limit your options or even take advantage of you. I know a woman who was taken into another room away from her husband with a bunch of medical students and was examined by them for learning purposes without her consent. She was in too much pain and under too much medication to resist. American healthcare is a sick joke that takes advantage of poor people.

[@alexisesch153]

Omg I seriously cried during the birth video. She is so beautiful. I remember crying when you announced you were pregnant and when you did the gender reveal. So incredibly happy for you and Jason

[@AllThingsAnisa]

ahh I've been waiting for this! so happy for you, she's absolutely beautiful!

[@ellacruickshank4387]

Indie is beautiful! You're a mummy! ❤️❤️❤️

[@pixiebomb28]

You look so beautiful, glowing actually. congratulations 😀😊

[@ayshajohn2439]

Indie looks so cute! It is so interesting watching babies grow because they change so much in such a short period of time.

[@miss00caro]

for all of those that don't know what a sweep is (including me, before I researched!) During an internal examination, your midwife or doctor sweeps their finger around your cervix. This action should separate the membranes of the amniotic sac surrounding your baby from your cervix.

[@nuuranal8989]

"They were all so nice..... except one she was weird" I laughed way too hard at that😂😂😂

[@hrm9696]

SHE'S SO TINY 😍😍😍😍

[@hrm9696]

You go girl! Spend the next couple of months thanking your body! Pamper days on end. Enjoy having your new born bub and getting to know her xxxxx

[@KG0000GK]

OMG I'm so proud of you Sam! I know she's still teeny tiny but I think she looks like Jason!

[@CarlaAllenMakeupbyCarlaLA]

The absolute best labor and delivery video I have ever seen! Congratulations love, she is absolutely lovely.

[@RihannaNAVYX]

Sam that was the most interesting labour story i have watched, short and sweet. Some people put up labour videos that are like 60 minutes long!!! She is so gorgeous little Indie

[@LovesofJBNeet]

Amazing!!!! I've been with you since the beginning and I've watched you grow and evolve. You are a wonderful woman and I am extremely proud of you. Congratulations to to you and Jason. Indie is perfect. TFS

[@LovesofJBNeet]

omit one to at the end. error

[@Sarelly]

AWW that is a BEAUTIFUL baby 😍😍

[@issylegg3809]

She's gorgeous! Please do an after labour video ! Xx

[@catherines9241]

I'm 35 weeks, and I just wanted to say that it was great to hear such a positive take on an epidural free labour. I've watched so many vlogs where women get epidurals that I was starting to think an epidural free labour wasn't even possible. Don't get me wrong, I'm not anti pain killers, I just don't want to go into it so scared that I won't be able to do it with them.

[@summ3rnightfashion521]

Does the pain ease immediately after labour or does it take some time?

[@mandy22f]

With having my kids it did. The worst pain i would say are contractions and pushing, but after they were born i felt immediate relief (although it does feel sore for a while and going to the toilet for the first time is the scariest thing in life lol!)

[@megchapman3776]

If its a straight forward vaginal birth, once baby is out you're too distracted to notice although you're very sore down there as they stitch you up. I don't remember any pain once my baby was out or even delivering the placenta I hardly took notice

[@margarethawolfe7989]

summ3rnightfashion as soon as the baby comes I felt great and the little pain I did have I didn't really notice cause it was nothing compared to labor and delivery.

[@theresa-hy7fu]

summ3rnightfashion hello, pain goes away immediately because all of endorphines and hormons. then some discomfort is noticed after a day but if generally you had a healthy pregnancy and delivery, you would forget it all.

[@shainajoanae4798]

summ3rnightfashion it's the days after that are painfully especially if you tear and have to get stitches

[@evealexandra7255]

Aw Sam congrats!!! She's beautiful x

[@chiarablocicci]

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOODDDDD OH MY GOD THE BABY I CAAAAAAAAAANT 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@RichelleBeauty]

i just cannot believe that you are now a momma. i still remember when i used to watch you waaaay back in the day when all you loved was nars foundation and mac products 😂😂 lol congratulations!!

[@aspynbailey3866]

OH MY GOSH!!!!!! I used to watch your beauty and makeup videos religiously a couple of years back, I haven't been on KZbin often since but I'm now a bit older and expecting my first baby in 4 weeks so I've been doing research and watching other people's birth stories. Just crazy that I found your channel again and you have a beautiful little baby now!

Could you do a "things that they don't tell you about pregnancy and labour video"? I swear there are so many things that just aren't talked about!
