the birth of our daughter

our birth vlog labor and delivery! At 41 weeks pregnant, my hospital birth started by induction, and took 60 hours ending in a c section delivery. It was emotional and such a rollercoaster, but we are so overjoyed to have our sweet baby girl, Grace, here with us now.

About Sierra and Stephen IRL
Hey friends! I’m Sierra Schultzzie and this is my vlog channel with my husband, Stephen. We started vlogging 4 years ago to document planning our wedding and growing together as a young married couple, and the channel has now really become our passion project. We love creating travel vlogs, disneyland vlogs, showing behind the scenes of creating my fashion videos, and all the little ups and downs of our unfiltered, real life. We also shared our journey trying to concieve and are now so happy to be sharing our experience with pregnancy and becoming first time parents.

Same boat but 5 years! I am 32 weeks with a little babygirl found out at 11 weeks almost the end of my first trimester only because husband had a big feeling and I kept telling him don't get happy its probably missed periods from getting off and on birth control my body's hormones are out of whack. Mind you I got off to go to a fertility appt and was not even a month pregnant but didn't pee in the cup because I forgot 🤦🏻‍♀️🤣 I came out of the rr crying like a maniac and he said aww it's a negative again I said I think I did it wrong😭 but here we induction at 38 or 39 because of diabetes but hey idc its been a little over 5 years I have waited for that "omg there's our daughter!"

I just want to say what an absolute privilege it is to be included in such important life moments of Sierras and Stephens life, especially as a long time viewer. It’s been really amazing seeing them get married, buy a house, car, and all the ‘growing up’ stuff- they are literally like role models/guides to me. Anyways don’t want to rant to much, but thank you S&S for sharing a part of your navigation through life, and congratulations! Can’t wait to see what this new chapter brings.

[@tammyellison735]

I have been a nurse for 40 years and I still get teary every time I see a newborn. My physician hubby when I told him you had the baby immediately asked how much did the baby weigh and how long was she. Many years ago he delivered babies. No matter how you have a baby the blessing is having a healthy baby. My husband delivered both my children the OB insisted so he could be on the birth certificate. Blessings and much love

[@WeirdoCollective]

I’m a 20 something punk who lives in their friends car don’t want kids and I was sobbing at this I’m so happy for you it gives me hope there are kids growing up in good homes with loving parents out there congrats

[@VanessaSele]

20 something? you dont know how old you are??

[@emilyschallock6115]

Sierra, I am 28 weeks pregnant, and I’m scared of the possibility of having a c-section! Thank you SO much for sharing your experience! Knowing that you’ve been through it and that your baby girl is here and safe gives me so much hope! This video has calmed my nerves!

[@Nordap1986]

The idea of csetions can be scary, but in the end they really arent as scary as we build them up to be. I have 3 csetions and will be 21 weeks tomorrow. I will have my 4th Csection in October. All of mine have gone great. You might not need one, but if you do it will be ok. Either way you will meet your precious baby soon.

[@brittanyberrien664]

I had a very similar experience to Sierra, except while I went into labor naturally, I just never progressed. Finally c-section because necessary as well.. I remember being so afraid and crying. I called my mom and she said something that is obvious, but something I really needed to hear. She said "it will be okay. People have c-sections every day and are fine!" I had the cesarean and ended up having a quick and easy recovery! You'll do great one way or another, you got this!

[@AyshaLovesYou]

I had a c-section. My daughter was breech and had the cord wrapped around her neck. So she actually had to be taken away for 2 hours after the c-section, to an incubator. My husband had to go hangout with her while I sat in the hospital room alone. It wasn’t my ideal birth situation at all! I wanted an all natural birth. But after all of that, she came back to my room and everything with her was completely fine. She is 16 months now, very healthy and smart, and attached to my hip constantly. I was worried that her not having skin to skin contact after birth would harm our relationship, but she’s such a mama’s girl! C-sections can be very scary, but we have them for a reason, in case of emergency! Birth never turns out exactly how we want it to, but that’s just how raising a child is! It never turns out how you’d expect it to. Just know that whatever happens during your birth, you will have a good team of doctors, and your baby will love you unconditionally no matter what happens!

[@Ergmermerg]

I was my sister's support person during her c section a couple of months ago. I can honestly say that it was the most beautiful thing I've ever had the privilege to witness. It is equally as valid and miraculous as a vaginal birth

[@Prizzilla]

If you go in with an open mind about a possible c-section, it can be a beautiful experience. Fighting it until the last minute is when it can become a scary situation. Good luck and here's to a safe and happy delivery! 💐💗

[@EsmeCleo]

I never had kids, and I’m typically not one for kid content, but I have been so strangely invested in this journey with you two (now, you three), and I want to say a huge congratulations on welcoming baby Grace into the world. You and Stephen are going to be such good parents! Thank you for allowing us to be part of this, and, selfishly, I can’t wait for more. Wishing all three of you (and the doggies) the very best! ❤️

I have zero interest in children but I watch a lot of birth vlogs. There’s just something about them.

[@breaynacurran1380]

a c-section was not my birth plan by any means but that’s what we’re looking at right now, i loved this vlog and i lost it when you were talking about how at peace you were with it & how worth it she is. I can’t wait to have my sweet babe in my arms to feel the same. good luck in your recovery mama 🤍

[@ativc5232]

It wasn't mine either, yet that's what I ended up having, but, as my husband and my pilates instructor said, "you did everything you could to reach a normal birth, and it turns out it wasn't possible, but in the end, the most important thing is that baby arrives healthy"

[@redacikockaite981]

@Emma Peters Or don’t plan anything at all and take it as it comes. 😍

[@CaraBearxx]

I’ve never had a child but I am very curious about why people are very set in a birth plan. I mean this with no hate I’m genuinely curious of why moms get disappointed not giving birth vaginally vs c-section. Is it because c-sections are scary because it’s more like a surgery?

[@breaynacurran1380]

@@CaraBearxx I think, personally, it’s just never what I envisioned! I think like with most things in life you have an idea of what you’d like and where you’re going and sometimes that doesn’t happen. I’m definitely not someone that could simply never have a birth plan, because it’s such a major event I can’t imagine having no opinion or game plan for it. Also, the recovery seems 10x scarier (imo) because it’s a surgery on top of your body going back to how it was, and taking care of another little human.

[@CaraBearxx]

@@breaynacurran1380 thank you so much your response! That makes a lot of sense, I already get stressed out of little things don’t go as planned but it’s a while other can of worms having a child too. I’m such a wimp just going to the doctor in general and any medical procedure scares me lol Any mom is a bad ass in my eyes, I’m to much of weenie to do it.

C section is more to be helpful for mom’s recovery than anything regarding baby. Most important thing is that mom and baby are safe at the end of it. :)

[@tonyasullivan1164]

I had a baby right after giving birth to my daughter it literally tore my body apart I'm only 32 years old so just let your body heal for at least a year and give that baby all the love you have for a year and then if you want more try again that for your body is sick and your well-being mentally and for babies sake of attention it's best to wait a year

[@trina7274]

I am 51, been married 32 years as of June 10th..... we had a baby born sleeping on 4/4/1991.... just 13 months after our first baby was born.... I was absolutely devastated. I again, got pregnant right away and we had our rainbow baby girl born in June of 1992.... It took TWO YEARS for me to fully recover and get back to normal after our baby girl was born...because i had 3 babies VERY close together...I suffered from anemia and my potassium was all out of whack, I had none of these problems prior to having the babies so close together. My white and red blood cells were also wonky....My periods were VERY heavy and my cycles where all over the place. I had to take hormones for over a year to straighten my body out...my thyroid also got messed up because of all the hormones being off.... I was a mess.... a total mess... and I was always tired. So, so tired. It also damaged my hips and I have had severe left hip pain since my daughter was born in 1992.... my bladder was also damaged and to this day, when I have to go... I REALLY have to go... So yes, I 100% agree with you @Tonya Sullivan ..... also.... it’s VERY stressful having little ones so close in age, it does take a lot of the joy out of it. Needless to say, I learned my lesson and our last two were born 5 years after each other! Children are the most, the best, the biggest, most wonderful, joyful blessing of life.... but the mama’s health often gets lost in the process. Very often moms needs get sidelined. We as a society need to change that. Also.... for the first 2 weeks after birth, its vital that mamas rest and relax, while their body recovers..... you can do permanent damage to your body if you don’t (bladder/hips/pelvic area)..... this needs to be taught in birthing classes imo. Blessings to all 💕❤️🙏

I'm happily child free for life but when he said "there's our daughter" I broke down 😂

[@diamondpayne5959]

I feel so blessed that Sierra and Steven have chosen to share their lives with us. I’ve been following her since I think 2018, and I know it’s just a KZbin channel but she has meant so much to me over the years and I couldn’t be more happy for both of them, especially know the difficult journey that they had getting to this point. It’s gonna be so amazing watching her be a mother and I’m so happy that she has Steven who is just so loving and supportive and gonna be a wonderful dad. I’m gonna stop blubbering but I’m just so absolutely thrilled for them

I couldn't agree more. I feel so close to her and Stephen, and now grace! They are amazing people, Grace is one lucky beautiful girl!!!!!

“There’s our daughter” and i started crying

[@mayramillan149]

Literally weeping. Thanks for sharing Sierra and Stephen! I can’t believe I’ve seen you get married and now give birth. Praise God for a healthy delivery even though it wasn’t ideal. I can’t wait for y’all to share more.

[@kimgagnier8240]

I feel like I’ve been stalking IG for all the updates but this is even better! Congrats 💖Welcome baby Grace!

[@britneyjoy2982]

had to get here right on time!!! ahhhhhh can't believe she is here

[@summerbreeze698]

The Baby Bump shot in the Nursery was adorable! Steven rockin' an invisible baby girl in his arms was beyond precious! Sierra you are absolutely beautiful!❤

I’m only a few minutes in, and I’m crying. Our journeys are so similar. We suffered our miscarriages around the same time, and we were pregnant at the same time 🥰 I got induced at the end of April with cytotec too, and had an unplanned c section after 18 hours in labor and an intrauterine infection. My son was born on April 30th ❤️ I can’t wait to finish watching and hear about your delivery and recovery. My recovery was so difficult on me, and I really hope and pray yours is going better ❤️ congratulations you two!!!

[@cloehahn1233]

Omg hearing Stephen say “there’s our daughter” as he was crying. I WAS BAWLING 🥺♥️😩

[@ciarahoffman8393]

Did anyone else just instantly start bawling when Steven said "that's our daughter!" ? No? Just me?

[@harl3758]

I don’t even like babies or the idea of pregnancy but not me tearing up when Stephen said “there’s our daughter”😭😭

[@whatifmynamewasgraham]

Honoured to share names with such a beautiful little girl. Hearing her cry just brought me to tears, so happy for you guys

[@sunnybunny6275]

[@teresagraser386]

I developed full blown Eclampsia and had to have a C-section with the birth of my daughter. I never felt bad about not havg a vaginal birth. I was just thankful she was healthy . Congratulations on your birth, Grace is beautiful. Enjoy getting to know her , these will be some of the most precious memories you have.

[@melodycollins2903]

Everyone needs a Steve, from the second I heard him cry I was sobbing 😭

[@smileySaM135679]

Oh my goodness, I cry every time I see dads cry when they see their baby for the first time! It gets me excited for when our baby girl gets here later this year and to see my husband holding our daughter! Congrats to the three of you and I know y’all will make many happy memories together!!

[@mollzgrabman3216]

When Steven said “I’m forever proud of you” 🥺🧡 my heart melted y’all are such goals. Congratulations Grace is such a beautiful name for such a beautiful baby.

[@emilymehltretter2705]

As a woman unable to have children I have watched your journey and somewhat lived vicariously through you. Thank you for showing all of the ups and downs. You are such a beautiful strong family. Much love! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

[@megant2030]

Not me planning exactly when to leave for my lunch break and get back with food at the exact right time to watch this video 😅 Love you Sierra ❤️❤️❤️

[@carlinicole8592]

We have such similar birth stories, I had my daughter by emergency c-section on March 25th after 3 days of unmedicated labor. It’s unbelievable how quickly you go from agreeing to the c-section to holding baby in your arms. As much as I didn’t plan on delivering that way, none of it mattered once she was here in my arms. You’re going to be the best parents, Grace is a lucky girl! 💕

[@courtneytousant9392]

Stephens voice when he said “that’s outer daughter” oh my gosh.. my heart! Congratulations times a million! Grace, you are so loved and so beautiful! Welcome to the world!! 💖💖💖💖

[@willemijnknaud3786]

Not me crying when Grace was shown on camera for the first time and the sweet words of Stephen! Congrats to both of you! You guys are gonna be the best parents for baby Grace. She is gonna be so loved! Hope the recovery of the c-section is going smoothly. I'm so excited to be following you guys on this adventure!

[@Objection_23and1]

Legit chills ran through my body hearing Stephen say that… “ there’s our daughter “ instantly tears of joy, absolutely so happy for you!! And I had an unplanned c section also and you explained it perfectly, it does not matter how it went down as long as baby is healthy and on another note she is beautiful 💜

[@peggy2429]

I’m impressed that you know the names of all these drugs and procedures. Congratulations on your precious baby girl ❤️
