As a hospital nurse of 40 years and hearing your postpartum story I can tell you that you are a Superwoman! Don't doubt your initial choices, as complications can come with even a completely natural childbirth, it's how you handle these difficulties that matter. How you and Josh handled these problems show that you are going to be the best loving parents to Baby Acre.❤

Yes, we sure do! I had a spinal headache too, but it wasn’t after an epidural. It was after a spinal tap that couldn’t be completed until I had been poked more than a dozen times. They finally did my spinal tap under an x-ray machine but because of all the holes they poked I ended up with a spinal headache. So I definitely understand, you being a little more complicated than average I was one of the first women to receive a blood patch. Thankfully it worked for me but I did not know that I was having a spinal headache so it took me 10 days to reach out. At the time I had four kids, including a not quite two year old toddler , you are not kidding when you talk about excruciating pain I’m so glad you’re on the other side of it and now it’s time for you to sit back and get to know your son. Congratulations and virtual hugs from all of your many supporters here. We love you guys!

I developed a spinal fluid leak 5 months after having back surgery. I endured 42 days of excruciating headaches until they were able to determine the cause and then I needed a second surgery to repair the leak. No one can understand the level of this pain unless they have experienced it themselves. I can relate to your feelings of total despair. I'm so glad that you were able to count on your loved ones for support. God's blessings to you and your new little family!

Same. But if it happens after giving birth, it's called eclampsia. I believe it's when the pre-eclampsia levels are not high enough for doctors to induce you. I had a seizure during my emergency c-section (due to labor stalling) and fell into a coma for a week. My kidneys were failing. They told my husband that the situation was dire. Women still die during childbirth right here in the US!

The bond with his son grew like crazy while you know you can let go when it's necessary. About the guilt, welcome to motherhood. 😄 The best thing for that is talk, you have a limitless supply of other parents to help you get past that. Be sure to tell Baby the story, he will learn that Dad was there for him and can emulate that character for his own family someday.

I would absolutely leave your options open, not close anything down, you do not know how things will go, some people sail through others need help. Personally I’ve had 2 births which was way before epidurals were available, I would chose to have an epidural. Every birth is different, but I think here, her doctor should have picked up the high blood pressure, because this is the reason it should be avoided. Her swollen feet before she gave birth was a sign.

Epidural for sure you have no idea how long you will labor for some people labor for more than 24 hours and without an epidural they are so exhausted from the contractions that they can't push as effective as they would. My sister in law labored hard for 28 hrs when it came time to push she didn't have the strength. Personally I had an epidural for my 3 births and delivered anywhere from 7 to 12 hours. Wouldn't think twice about it.

I'm so proud of you mama! We as moms travel through the valley of the shadow of death LITERALLY to bring our children into the world. It's not easy physically or emotionally, but it's soooo worth it!!! God has a way of helping the pain of it all to ease over time. Otherwise it would be hard to decide on having another child. I know, I have 6, and each delivery was different! But I'd do it all again to have the littles (all grown up now) that I have!!! Again, I'm so proud of you mama!!! And thanks for sharing. You show & share things as they really are. Whether it be cooking, baking, gardening or giving birth. Keep being you, because you're WONDERFUL!!!

As someone who struggles with chronic pain from autoimmune issues, my heart ached when you explained all the pain you endured. I never wish others to feel that level of despair and depression that comes along with never-ending pain despite trying all the available treatments. I cannot remember a day without horrible pain, and that's why your story made me cry. I hope you continue to heal and get to enjoy your health again while cuddling your sweet baby boy. Thank you for sharing your story.

Me too. Also a severe chronic pain sufferer AND had spinal leak from a spinal tap from meningitis testing. It was horrid. I was severely ill already too, while Becky was post partum going through it. We are all 3 warriors. We must pray for the good days when pain is more bearable, cherish them. While the days pain wins the battle, we just keep fighting the good fight and try keep a handle on what we can control which is our mental and emotional state. Trying to not sink into despair from severe pain. Instead focus on every good thing or memory in life, focusing on those we love, and focusing on our dreams to keep hope alive as long as we are still alive enduring. So glad Becky is doing better and recovering more and more every day. I'm glad she's slowed down and just focused on healing. We all feel that guilt while in severe pain of what we could or should be doing but absolutely cannot. But knowing we are doing the best we possibly can and that's all we can do- it's enough. God knows and knows our strength through our bodies pain and suffering. 🙏

Becky, thank you so much for sharing your story. It is, by far, the most difficult postpartum story I have heard. When you mentioned the doctor saying that your body hadn’t read the textbook, it reminded me of my experience with my firstborn. I ended up going to the ER on my third day postpartum. While I was in the ER, my husband was taking my son for his daily check since he was jaundiced at birth. The doctor came in and asked me why I was there and I completely broke down sobbing, and attempting to explain my issue. He was so good, he just patted me on the shoulder and told me that the third day postpartum is the worst. When you talked about being at day 5, I really felt for you. I really hope that sharing your story was cathartic for you. And if God blesses you with more children and you decide not to have an epidural, don’t worry, your body knows what to do. I have three grown children and each labor and delivery was different, but your postpartum story sounds much worse than the fleeting pain of delivery. Please give yourself as much grace as possible. I’m glad your body is healing and your heart will too. Sending you love and prayers.

As a mother of 6, think of things like this... Josh got to bond with baby A, something many new dads are terrified of as well as having to share baby with the mom. Not only that, but he rocked it! Josh was worried about you and did everything he could do for you to get better. You both are Rockstars! You are much better for them at your best health, physically and mentally. It's normal to feel a bit like you let your baby down, but you didn't! You did what was needed so you could heal, and no one ever would think that anything you did for your health was a letdown. You are here and on your way to returning back to the best(healthy) version of yourself. I felt horrible when my first born was born at 28weeks and I went home while he spent 2 months in NICU. I think I blamed myself for a long time and tried to think of what I could have done differently but in reality, my body and my son decided when he was arriving. Emotions are always high after birth 🙄 but you will get more normal as time goes on. And it is okay to have your moments (crying is OK too), but know that I speak for many of us, we are so grateful you, baby A, and Josh are all doing well. Thank you so much for being so transparent and thinking of us through all you have gone through. Welcome to motherhood. ((Hug)) It really looks good on you. My thoughts are with you as you continue to heal.

Yes! That dad bonding is so important too. I got very sick with what we eventually come to find was a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis when my son was 5 months old. I had severe vertigo (causing vomiting) and I could not walk without assistance because of the vertigo, I would fall. After about a week my husband said, "Look, I can take care of you or the baby but not both of you. One of you has to go!". Lol! I was so relieved because with having the baby with me I felt like I needed to care for him and not just heal. He kept the baby and I went to my parents for about 10 days. They would come visit with me of course but it wasn't the constant stress of caring for him. I could not have told my husband that I needed to be apart from the baby, I felt like a bad mom for thinking it. I was ever so grateful when my spouse spoke up.

Be super kind to yourself and feel the feelings as they arise, as it is part of letting go what simply was beyond one's control in those first days. Postpartum migraines are very painful and debilitating, and it is wonderful to hear that you no longer have them. You have a beautiful, healthy little one who you nurtured in your womb incredibly well. Take all the time you need to simply sit and cuddle your precious baby whenever you feel inclined, because those moments of just snuggling and cuddling will be so healing and so special. Congratulations again on the safe arrival of your beloved little one.

It’s not easy to just throw your partner away because they aren’t “partnering” how you’d like. It’s a learning experience, and hopefully most would have the heart to gently guide and allow room for growth. Love to you as well.

My 'baby' is 26 years old, but watching your videos brought back a flood of emotions from the first 2 weeks after I gave birth. I ended up with a kidney infection the day after coming home, pain, fever, chills, but that was nothing compared to all the feelings I was having, from failing to follow my birth plan by asking for an epidural after being induced and laboring for 24 hours, and then failed at pushing baby out, ended up having a c-section, breastfeeding didn't just come naturally like I thought it would, couldn't get enough sleep and even had a hard time finding time to shower! My son never slept more than 20 minutes at a time and my Mom had come down with pneumonia just before he was born so she couldn't be there to help. I was a mess and I cried quite a few times. I wish someone would have warned me that I might be a tired, emotional mess for a little bit! But eventually things fell into place and I enjoyed being a Mom and raising my child. My only complaint now is that the time went by so quickly. Try to enjoy every moment, even when he's naughty, someday you'll wish you could go back and do it all again! My son just got engaged, so hopefully there will be a grandchild to love not too long from now!

Also, as a Mom of three adult children and their spouses, and as a grandmother of five, your Mom was waiting for your call to come running to you!!! Love your work and blessed by your story. Thank you so much!!! 0:45

I am amazed at your strength and honesty. I was crying right along with you and still am. Being a first time parent is so hard because you are traveling through an unknown experience. God showed you not only how strong you are, but also what a great man you married. Josh got the time to bond with your son and I can imagine his thoughts and feelings as he worried about you. Don't feel guilty about not being able to spend time with your son in the beginning. Babies feel the stress of their mom and he was with someone who loves him as much as you. Enjoy every second because they change so much the first year and grow so darn fast. You are both loving and caring parents and you've already shown that. Make sure you spend time with each other and know that we, your viewers, are always here for you and in our prayers. ❤️ 💙 💜

I hope you will see this Becky. I have to say, to me this is not a depressing story. The way I hear it, this is a story of triumph over adversity, fortitude, perseverance, and making good decision after good decision. Baby A is so lucky to have you as his mom. You are a fierce force to be reckoned with. ❤ I hope you give yourself permission to feel all the feelings that will inevitably come up, including some room for pride.

I had two babies (30 and 27 years ago) with no medicines and then I got an autoimmune diseases and ended up with aseptic meningitis and I literally thought my head was gonna blow off. I remember saying that I would rather give birth to 48 babies than have that kind of headache! God bless you Becky! Your internet family loves you!

Oh Becky! I am so sorry that you had to go through all of that! I have no doubt that your story will help someone someday. Your openness and vulnerability is not lost on anyone here! Having 3 kids myself with the first one definitely not being "easy" or routine either I can tell you that they are all different! I am so glad you are doing better now and wish that you continue to heal quickly and uneventfully! Enjoy baby A!

Becky I so feel for you with this experience...my heart breaks as I hear you retell this story!! Wishing you, Josh and baby A healing, love and the ability to not let this situation define your's and baby A's birth story. Feeling all of the sensations and emotions around this is part of processing- to fully experience all of it so it doesn't become stuck in the body as trauma. Even though it is hard and can feel very painful I commend you for taking baby steps forward in your healing-mind, body and spirit!! Deep breaths-you are loved!!

Oh Becky, what a hard time you’ve been through! You had way more than your share of complications and I pray you are now feeling better, enjoying time with your precious baby, and on the road to being completely back to normal. You endured a lot momma and you are one strong woman!!

I am just wrapping up my last year of nursing school, and if anything, I hope you know that you taught me something to look out for when I am a nurse. I’m sorry you went through this hard experience after birth, but I am thankful you had the courage to share!
