[@BrittneyKayGarza]

NATEGAWD I love you more!!❤️

[@karinaresendez8048]

You helping Brit get showered hit me hard 😩😢.

[@KingCondor]

cringe bro

[@DianaGarcia-lt7od]

Don’t feel bad about having a c-section you still created an carried a life. You still brought a little person into this world you are a strong beautiful momma 💕❤️

[@patriciaalmanza8621]

You did not fail because you had a c-section. You created and carried a human inside of you for 9 months. She’s here, she’s healthy and she’s beautiful! My mom’s body was not capable of natural labor, she had 4 c-sections. I have so much respect for you for being able to open up about your experience. The important part is that you and your babygirl are here and healthy. love you ❤️❤️

[@jackieel5]

This video was so raw! Thank you for sharing. I’m currently 22 weeks pregnant and everyone has told me not to plan my delivery because once you’re their things happen to change. So I’m taking this pregnancy day by day, but not a day goes by where I’m not terrified of both pushing vaginally or even c section, but either way I know I have to be prepared for the arrival of my daughter. As I see this. I see you are very strong to have gone through all that just to deliver your daughter! It may not have gone as planned, but girl you gave life to a beautiful babygirl 💗 You struggled for her! Congratulations ✊🏼

[@leslil7155]

Jackiee omg I’m also 22 weeks lol and 3. Days with a girlll

[@jackieel5]

lesli Astorga Wow, congratulations girly! 💗 is this your first pregnancy? Wish you a smooth delivery. Good luck ✊🏼

[@leslil7155]

No it’s my second my first is a girl as well

[@Krystinaprz]

I cried when you started getting emotional because I had a c section as well and my labor didn’t go as plan, I felt like a women’s body should be mentally be prepared to give birth naturally and that wasn’t the case for me and I felt soo sad.. but after 20 mins of my c section I had my beautiful daughter. 😭❤️

[@markibolanos4225]

Your labor & delivery story is something I’ve never heard of. You’re is the scariest I’ve heard.. but I’m proud of you!

[@Lupita.h2024]

Just watched your video & I got induced bc of my blood pressure as well. I was so swollen also! I ended up having a c-section. It took me some time to accept everything that happened during labor.

[@belindamandujano9987]

Girl, your labor story is exactly like mine. I felt so guilty for having to have a csection, but by my second “planned csection” I was so happy I was able to go in at 5am , makeup done no pain , and baby was out no sweat.. thank god for future medicine ✨ such a beautiful momma girl 😘

[@laurentapia8325]

Your story reminded me of my first time being in labor. It made me kinda emotional cause I feel you girl! 🥺😭

[@TemptingCreature]

I wish i could hug you when you started to cry 🥺 take care of yourself mama Your mental health comes first If you need someone to talk to, I’m here hun 💕

[@adrian47dragon60]

You're such a great story teller ! Don’t feel bad, I came into the emergency room at 8 cm just to find out my baby was breeched and completely out of my control.

[@Karla-mu2fg]

Ok but why did hearing the voice memo give me nostalgia of when my babygirl was born. Especially when Evangelina started crying. I got a knot in my throat.😢

[@lovemom8076]

3 years later and I still cry when I talk about my emergency c section . It’s a sensitive topic so good for you boo for being strong enough to talk about your story !! 💖

[@mczn]

BEEN WAITING FOR THIS 😭😭😭

[@BrittneyKayGarza]

oxminaox sorry I kept you waiting girl!! 😂❤️

[@mczn]

Brittney Kay it’s okay 😭 ily & I’m just happy Evangeline has such a strong mommy ❤️🥺

[@emilymarie0711]

Wow!!! I’ve been watching everyone’s delivery stories and it’s crazy how every pregnancy is so different. I can’t believe what you went through in your labor. It seemed so scary but I get inspired because when I’m ready to have a baby I will think of women like you who went through hell and came out stronger. You are super woman!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Jm-ju6po]

You’re so strong! I’m so proud of you! I feel like we all have that “idea” that women are supposed to have their babies naturally but we also have to remember that a lot of women died giving birth. And maybe that was because they didn’t have the option of a C Section (and also other medical necessities) so don’t feel bad. You literally got to 8 cm! You were almost there. 🙌🏻 congrats on your babygirl, we are all so so happy for you! ❤️

[@katiehenriquez6734]

i completely understand being upset about your birth plan. my water broke at 38 weeks while my husband was deployed. his unit wouldn't let him leave since "it's not considered an emergency" so i had to go through it alone plus my body wouldn't cooperate as well with dilating so i had to get a c section as well

[@valeriecavazos4887]

omg I could only imagine everything you went through, you’re so freaking strong! im so proud of you 😭 love you!

[@Stephie53]

Aww i dont use any social media but im glad you showed her here. She is so beautiful! She looks just like Nate. And you look like u never had a kid😍

[@irismxp]

I cried with you, girl 😭 i had 2 c-sections and my first didnt go as planed either! I really felt deep in my heart everything you were feeling but our kids are healthy and that’s all that matters!❤️ congratulations on your babygirl Evangeline! She’s beautiful ❤️

[@nicoleenglish9260]

Literally cried watching this! So sorry you had to experience a scary birth like that but happy to hear you and the baby were healthy and fine! 💛

[@lesliedenise9462]

My biggest fear is being in labor. I admire your strength through the whole process and I’m so glad that Nathan was your rock. When he said you’re a champ, I started balling. I’m glad your daughter is healthy and thank you for sharing your story, Brittney 💗

[@lizethdiaz8278]

I just found your channel and listening to your story reminds me so much of my own. In my case I got stuck at 3cm i was in labor for 16 almost 17hrs. I just had my second baby and it was also a c-section it definitely sucks to feel like you can’t even have your baby naturally like every other woman. Thank you for being so raw about all of this❤️

[@cindyvsaliens]

hearing your story definitely made me feel better, i had a c section as well and i felt like nobody understood me and just hearing your story made me bawl. you’re so strong momma. ❤️

[@anahymartinez1522]

Just because you had a C-Section, it doesn’t make you any less of a woman 💕 you created life and your such a strong person 💕 much love 💕

[@Snf8189]

You're such a strong tough momma. I cannot wait to have my first little one. January cannot get here fast enough!! Congratulations again. Such a beautiful family ❤️💙

[@_bee8736]

1st of all huge Congrats! I had similar experience with my 1st born! It was not what I planned but as I look back to 8years ago, I realize that it just wasn’t gods plan for my LO to come naturally. He needed little help lol. But we woman are so strong and god created us to be mamas for a reason! When you look back at your experience you might say you won’t be able to do it again! But TRUST me you can and will. I have 3 kids and survived all 3 c sections! We’re warriors! A mom is not defined by what type of birth you have. Many blessings to your and your family!💗

[@denisseg1823]

So crazy i came across this video and our labor and delivery’s were literally the same from the c section to the high blood pressure to epidural and induction 😭🤯 I just had my baby 3 weeks ago and it made me so emotional watching this! 🙏🏻 I get you 100% and agree with you in all you said it’s not easy having a c section!

[@personal.acc7]

OMG YESSSS, although I’ve been waiting for this video I do respect your privacy! And glad you took your time ❤️ & I’m glad Evangeline was born healthy and that you’re okay as well ❤️ God is good! And she’s beautiful 😍

[@nadiajuarez4763]

Aw Brittney don't be so hard on yourself about the Csection. You grew a whole life in your body do you know how amazing that is?! Life will never go as planned but your baby is worth anything that childbirth brings. I'm so proud of you!

[@Karla-mu2fg]

Yup the exact same thing happened to me too my first epidural wore off and I had to get it again. But thank God at least my anesthesiologist was so good. I hardly have back pain. Because I was told as soon as I was able to walk and get up to maintain my back covered at all times. Not to let it be exposed to the cold because it would give you horrible back pain. And that’s exactly what I did I was always super careful and took care of my back so much and it helped :) don’t get me wrong I still get some like pain but nothing unbearable either.

[@mandsss17]

Thank you so much for sharing! I had my first baby almost two weeks ago and my birth experience was almost EXACTLY the same as yours - from being induced to having to get the balloon to having medicine re-administered right before the c section because my epidural wore off and they didn’t know until they started pinching me. I also was dead set on having a vaginal delivery but had to get a c section last minute because I wasn’t dilating past 7 cm and they already broke my water. I’ve been struggling with accepting the fact that I had to get a c section because I equated it with failing, but I’m trying to tell myself that it’s far from that & it doesn’t make me any less of a mother/woman. If anything, an experience like this is empowering because you were able to overcome all these unexpected hurdles while doing the hardest thing you’ll ever have to do (labor). You are so strong! Congratulations on the beautiful baby & thank you again for opening up about your experience.

[@chyna9569]

Vaginal or c-section we are all strong warriors willing to do whatever for our babies & that's what unites us ❤ we are all MOTHERS

[@yourjoyjoy]

This had me so emotional when you spoke about going under c section and when you got teary eyed. I felt like I was speaking to a friend and she was opening up to me about something so meaningful and sentimental.Thank you for being so open with us about your experience.💕💕

[@tinkjma123]

I have a similar birth story with my 1st son 10 years ago. I had to get Induced but I wouldn’t dilate after 3 days in pain I had to get a c-section. I had my second baby 9 months ago and my experiences as so different and I was able to give birth naturally and it was amazing.

[@dianawence7168]

You are so strong and beautiful! ❤️ Putting your body and mind through all of that for your daughter is beyond anything!

[@mariahbernal2553]

Thank God you posted this !!! I was about to start shaving my legs because I see my man tomorrow and I needed something to entertain me lol love you

[@BrittneyKayGarza]

Mariah Bernal LMAO I love this 😂😂

[@mayravaldez9774]

I’m so sorry that you didn’t have a smooth delivery. Unfortunately every labor is unique to each momma. Congrats on your baby 💖 Im sure all your labor struggles are now worth it. Blessings to your family.

[@iamb2565]

It’s funny how all of us women have this way we think our labor is going to go! I feel you girl! Mine also didn’t go as planned and I had to have a c section too. I wanted to have the whole experience and I didn’t :(. But hey looking back now.... I don’t even care! Just glad my baby and myself were safe! Congratulations on your beautiful baby !

[@thalialopezmorales]

I’m ugly crying, Brit you did amazing, you’re so strong & I admire you so much!!🥺💕

[@vanej015]

The moment you started tearing up, I did too. I just recently started following you when I found out you were pregnant I was pregnant too. I also live in Dallas. I gave birth June 8th and I too was told I needed a c-section. Worst moment of my life because i really thought I was going to have a normal delivery especially after pushing just for 4 hours & being dilated at a 10 already. I know exactly how you felt at that moment. Recovery was a bitch. Not being able to feed or hold my baby when I wanted to, broke me!! I’m glad you had your support system though. I did too which helps but til this day, I’m not truly happy.

[@lovelanirose]

This reminds me so much of my experience! I had high BP too & had to get induced the exact same way. I was able to give birth vaginally but I can only imagine what you went through. The things that mamas go through for their babies!! She’s so beautiful! Congratulations 😍😍

[@queenfabbb]

A c-section was my worst fear, you are amazing for having a c-section because i have heard that the pp period is worse! Your baby girl is adorable, congratulations brittney!!! 💛 btw i loveeeee the little voice memo, it was so adorable to hear, it made my heart so happy

[@salinacuffy6064]

My eyes are watering as I watch this. I can’t imagine how it feels to get a C section when it is not what you wanted. I am so glad your baby is healthy and so are you! You are a warrior no matter what! Never feel less than a woman for having a C section. Love you so much! 💜😭👶🏾💓

[@vanessagarcia7260]

Awww the voice recording made me cry. So beautiful!!! Congrats!

[@danielarubio5321]

Even when your water breaks you don’t have the baby within hours... my water broke and I had her 8hrs later. Nothing is really guaranteed in labor and delivery. Whatever you hear isn’t necessarily going to be your story.

[@desireea7741]

THIS WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL VIDEO IVE EVER SEEN. YOU ARE AMAZING. Baby Eveangeline was worth every step. You did it!! ❤️🙏🏼

[@inezmartinez6277]

So happy u made this video. I’m currently 39 weeks & 5 days still no sign of labor and they’re talking about induction and told me if it doesn’t work out I’d have to have a c section too. It’s a lot of emotions & just frustrating that ur body isn’t doing what u thought it would do. Thank u for sharing ur experience & im happy to see everything went well & u two are healthy ladies. Congratulations!! 💕

[@fannihorta]

You should try to fast walk that totally helped me! God bless ❤😊

[@bridgetmondragon3458]

I literally cried when I heard the voice memo she’s beautiful congratulations!!😍😍💗

[@nessag9283]

Girl I FEEL YOU when you said you had a whole plan for your labor. I went in thinking I was gonna have my son natural and “normal”. I got induced, stayed overnight, in labor for HOURS, & I only progressed to a 8. I ended up having to have an emergency c-section for the exact same reason. And I am TRAUMATIZED when I think about my sons birth. It kills me thinking about the fact that my body couldn’t give birth to him. Plus I felt them stitching me up towards the end of the c-section and ugh all I think about is pain when I think about my sons birth. Truly blessed to have my 1 year old baby boy, but I just wish his birth could’ve gone naturally. Believe it or not but a lot of women have c-sections now a days, it’s okay. You are no less than a mom than the women that have their babies naturally. You are BLESSED, with a beautiful baby girl. 💕

[@nancyfelix7457]

This made me very emotional... and scared but I know it’ll be all worth it! You’re so strong love 💕 I’m just glad that you and Evangeline are healthy and well 🥰

[@belindarodriguez326]

Omg literally balling my eyes out!!! I also had an unexpected emergency c section and I truly wanted to do it vaginally. But he is here nice and healthy and that’s all that matters 💙 thank you for making this video I thought I was the only one who felt this way 😭

[@sarahidejesus515]

omg girl this made me cry😭😭 i feel you so much! i had to have an emergency c section 12 weeks ago. my daughters heart rate was slowing down with each contraction 😢 but thank god she was born healthy! i was in the hospital from friday night till wednesday i got to leave bc i was recovering from the c section 😭 it was the worst :( the spinal block made me so itchy! my arms and face! and then walking would hurt so much and then sitting down and standing i felt like my incision would open 😭😭 it would burn! and to top it off my sister would make me laugh so much while at the hospital and home and it would hurt to laugh lmao i felt like insides were gunna fall out 🤣 but now my incision is healed and u can barely see it.

[@esmeraldal9213]

Reminded me of my labor, I had gotten induced as well but I had only dilated 1cm. They kept checking on me but I had no progress. My doctor had told me we had to prepare for a csection and I just started bawling out crying because it wasn’t what I wanted. When it came time to go to the other room and do everything I also remember waking up to my baby boy first cry.

[@claudiaivette4703]

I was in the hospital from May 28th, 2018 - June 3rd, 2018... almost a whole week!! My baby didn’t come until May 31st, 2018 at 5:16 PM. Couldn’t eat anything for 4 straight days it was the worst!! I also ended having a c-section!!

[@raquelgalarza4944]

You telling your story reminds me so much of my labor and delivery with my first daughter I spent 5 days in the hospital before having her by a c section I never expected to deliver that way but I feel you when you said you where starving 😭😫

[@yesicagutierrez8438]

I am 24 weeks & holy fuck you’re so strong I’m literally crying my eyes out😭

[@Tanyamejia12]

So sorry things didn't go the way you planned britt. You're such a strong woman and I know you're already a great mother. Evangeline is so precious💕

[@janethernandez1272]

Im glad you had an understanding nurse. Ao happy you had a great support system especially Nathan by your side. You’re such a strong mama!

[@danielardz138]

I’m only 3 months and I’m so scared to give birth but I know it’s worth it 😓❤️ you’re such a strong mom congrats on your baby girl she’s beautiful! 💞

[@kristielarios6402]

Girl you made me tear up I felt the exact same way I still do I had a c section as well which I did not want at all 😭

[@gracielabeltran5821]

You being on drugs has me dying 😂😂😂😂😂

[@irismxp]

Can you please make a vlog on your mom routine with evangeline ? (:

[@LilyBabY1996]

- the nurse was suppose to help you shower 😱 ouch, I remember the pain of walking 😭😭 Congrats your baby is beautiful 💓

[@jacquelinetoscano6352]

I admire you so much for going through ALL of that, there's no other words i'd use ❤ so glad everything turned out okay, and now you have a mini you 😣💖😍

[@slaysparkle743]

Omg I got emotional, I understand you very much! I’ve had two c sections! I didn’t want to have c section but they told me I had to. My first it was horrible I actually felt them cutting me! On my second pregnancy I told them what happened to me the first time that I was scared the reassured me that wouldn’t happen and it didn’t everything went well! But it scar me so bad I’m scared to even have more kids! It is so scary! And painful!!!! C section is no joke but yeah I went through the exact same thing girl it’s like I’m you telling the story!

[@ashaleysaldana]

I’ve been waiting for this!! Holding ur baby for the first time is the best feeling in the world isn’t it!🥰

[@katindahat]

She has your eyes 🥺💕💕💕

[@kierrasimone]

Omg your story scared me cause I’m due in October and it’s a strong possibility that I have to have a c-section. I thought I was prepared but nobody really ever tells you everything you have to go through. Thanks for being honest about it. I’m glad your daughter was healthy when she came! She’s so cute!

[@selynaciara6166]

Ohh girl I was induced April 15th and was in labor for 22 hours it was the hardest thing I ever did ! Nothing like I thought it was going to be ! But once they come out you forget all about it 💗 god bless you and your little baby

[@claudiacorona532]

Your so strong 💘😭😍 you brought a beautiful human into this world

[@cielovega2833]

things you did: THAT. She is soooooo beautiful 🥺🥺😍 congratulations

[@diazjenny95]

My first pregnancy I had my baby girl @ 34 weeks due to severe preeclampsia. My blood pressure was in the 200s and I never felt sick or anything. Which is scary af because you can have a seizure etc. They induced me and it wasn’t going anywhere I stayed @ 1cm and the next day I had an emergency c section. Every time I was contracting her heart beat would go down so we had no choice. She was at the NICU for a week and I stayed a week also due to my high blood pressure. I feel you and it was scary but my baby girl is now 2 and big and healthy 😭❤️🙏🏻

[@stephanyelizalde2400]

aww babe so sorry you had to go through all that 😩 but at the end of the day you were blessed with a beautiful baby, like wow she’s an angel 😍 love you super mommy

[@stephaniesaldana787]

I feel you 100 % girl. I had my kids back to back and I had to get induced due to my blood pressure both times. I was in labor for a long time also but thank God the epidural actually helped me dialate quick. I actually wanted to have a natural birth with no Epidural but things don't ever go as planned. It definitely is , mentally and physically exhausting being in labor for soo long and plus having high blood pressure and everyone freaking you out. Your such a strong mama ❤ you did amazing thru all that stress! Evangeline came out healthy and soo Beautiful 💕

[@DayanelliIniguez]

I got so emotional, I understand you. I have had 2 csections, yes it’s a toll on our bodies but it’s so worth it. I’m glad you both are healthy ! ❤️

[@julissahernandez671]

Yes you can definitely feel the epidural moving inside of you! It felt so weird! I had two shots as well! Congrats babe she’s gorgeous and Nate’s twin!

[@beatrizalua1171]

Girl I had 4 csections it was painful. 😭 I sometimes do wish I had them natural but if my body can’t. I love being a mom to my boys

God had his plans so happy you both r doing good❤️❤️ i am also so nervous/anxious since I just found out my baby’s head isn’t down yet & hv 2 1/2 wks left , praying I don’t need a c section 😭😭😭 leave it in gods hands 💯

[@woahme1828]

Women go through a lot mentally and physically 😣💜

[@nngsc14]

Omg that’s so crazy. I’m so sorry you had to go through all that. She’s so beautiful 😍 Btw whoever gave this video a thumbs down is a fucking hater.

[@bml3408]

Girl csections are soooo hard and the recovery is horrible! At least for me it was! Whenever I get sick and cough it hurts my incision so much! I’m only a year post partum

[@dinaamariee]

Wow Brittney i am in tears watching your video. I feel so blessed that you shared this with all of us and omg i am crying...ugh. you are such a strong women. Evangeline is so so lucky to have you. Wow what an amazing beautiful video 😭😭❤❤❤❤ May God bless your family so so so wonderful.

[@abigailp3344]

Omgg your so strong I can’t even imagine such an incredible woman ♥️

[@brendachavez4657]

Exact same experience 😢, my baby girl was born August 6th and I dilated to 10 but I pushed for 5 hrs and nothing ... and had to get a c section as well and it was something I didn’t plan on having but god does things for a reason and now we both have our beautiful baby girls and you’re strong 😭😫!

[@lauramunoz7058]

You are a strong women. 🙌🏼Please, do a video on the recovery road from a C-section!

I understand the pain of being induced 💔 Love you girl! & congrats to you & Nathan on your beautiful babygirl 💜

[@RocioCaro1]

Congratulation love! May God continue to bless you and your family 😭❤️

[@youcravebelinda]

SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE HER DAD OMG ✨ I’m sorry you couldn’t have her natural 😥 but I’m glad y’all are okay and healing well 💖

[@Heytherejen]

My c-section was traumatic as well, I didn’t plan it at ALL. I feel like I have ptsd from it. I was freakin out during the whole surgery, they restraint me bc I was pushing the nurses and yeah.. they put me down quick so I knocked out and didn’t get to hear my baby’s first cry and held her the next day bc I was under some heavy ass drug :(

[@christinasanchez1203]

Jennifer Lopez The same thing happened to me. & they kicked my husband out. It still makes me cry to this day that neither of us heard her first cry.

[@aimeepenaflor5449]

I am so proud of you! You are brave and strong and I wish nothing but health and prosperity for you and your family

[@sarbearbieberlover]

My labor was almost EXACTLY the same as yours... the only thing that was different for me was that I got my water broken at 2cm and got the epidural due to my blood pressure going to 190/130. I got the same drug, my epidural wore off, I wasn’t dilating, and shit got real VERY fast. My pain was so bad I was passing out from screaming in pain. I did not want a C-Section but I ended up BEGGING for one. My boyfriend and the nurse held me down during my C-Section. I ended up sleeping through the entire procedure and had to be put under. I started to hemorrhage and I lost half of my body’s blood. I didn’t get to meet my baby until the next day. ): I then was packed and had a balloon put inside my uterus because my uterus collapsed. It was very traumatic. (Especially since I’m only 18) He was 9 pounds. He’s now 5 weeks old! This video helped me a lot to know that I wasn’t the only one who wouldn’t dilate. I felt the same way after and I still get emotional when I think/talk about it. Thank you for making this video.❤️

[@alejandramendoza931]

I love the scene where Nathan was showering Brit! 😍 Love so pure! Again, congratulations on babygirl! ❤️❤️
