- Thank you for all your encouragement with this pregnancy. My baby is only a week old so I'm still very tired and recovering from surgery but I wanted to share an update with all of you who have been emailing and commenting wanting to know how the birth went.

Every day I get so many emails and comments asking why you can’t locate the music I use or find it using Shazam. I purchase music licenses for almost all the music you hear in my videos. I buy them them from various royalty-free production music sites and most of the time they don’t list the performer because it’s music made only for film productions with an audio watermark throughout the entire track, unless you purchase the single-use license for $50-100 per track. I use a lot of opera so often I’ll reference the opera but I won’t be able to direct you to a recording of that specific performance that you could stream or buy on iTunes or Spotify. Hope that clears things up and thank you for appreciating quality music.
Please don't follow me on Facebook as that person is not me - they have stolen my identity for the past few years.

Please Kylie... complain... raise hell. If not for you, then maybe for another woman in your place. Start up a patient advocate program. You were so strong for you and your baby, be proud of yourself! I am so happy that all was well in the end. Much love
Great idea ! In Serbia couple of female lawyers geathered to help women with the similar issues during the birth. What you describe here Kylie is violence and abuse, so definitely some lawyer should be involved. Very primitive hospital culture and very downputting, I feel so sorry for all the women who were in the situation to experience this kind of attitude. The problem is as much as in Serbia to change the conservative and abusive hospital culture that has been allowed to stay for decades. When you soon get over this traumatic experience dear Kylie, you may get currage and energy to do something about it for the good of all the future mothers and their safety at birth. Much love Maja
I would never be as calm as you in that situation. Please complain! That's no ok! Being all alone without your husband and dealing with those bad nurses! I cannot imagine!!
Congratulacions 🎉for the babe❤, im happy, you are better, but im 100% agree with this coment, in fact that was a nightmare, how they treat you, Is the razon many woman can’t afford prívate clínic, decide to no have a family, cause a vulnerable woman alone in the hospital, Is not strong enough to defend herself, against, this monster nurses. Please Please, súbdito a complain, or demand. One more time im happy for your happyness, family Is at home, you are a new mum, and Is a new life.❤
Hold everything! There is no guessing about whether there is a contraction or not.. we’re you wearing the monitor? Was there a machine with waves?
I agree with al that's been said and FYI your hair looks great!!!
You must absolutely file a complaint this hospital and its staff not only neglected you but as a lawyer I can confirm they violated basic human rights !! This is beyond malpractice... I'm so devastated for you Kylie or any woman that would be subjected to this kind of incompetence and torture. MY GOD🙏💔 You are blessed and God was with you.. but please for the sake of other mothers you must make this hospital accountable.
I hope she reads your message here
I totally agree, please file a formal complaint. They do this because most of the mother just want to leave all that behind, but what that causes is that they continue to treat poor mother in labor in an environment in an inhumane way.
You are absolutely right L Gilbert! Kylie and Guido have a duty to file a complaint to make sure no other patients are treated like this. If those people have no consequences they will just keep abusing people.
You are so right !
It’s Italy they probably have so many complaints unfortunately 💔
I've spent my entire career as a pediatric & neonatal nurse. My heart hurts to hear of another instance of bullying, pure & simple. Please speak up if you are able, for this is how we bring about change. While you cherish this precious time with your son, please be aware of your own mental health needs. Your entire family has endured a trauma at the most vulnerable time in your life. Blessings
Hi Kylie, I am Italian and I know what goes on in hospitals, particularly in Calabria. I am astounded to hear that you were treated in this way in Tuscany where, typically, the hospitals are better managed. I agree with most of the comments and encourage you to lodge a formal complaint, given your profile and your reach. Not for revenge but for the fact that a woman giving birth needs compassion and care, not to be be subjected to cruelty. I am so happy to hear that Gianfranco is healthy and beautiful. Get better soon. Tanti auguri 💙
Kiley, I’m so sorry about what happened to you!!! How horrific!!
Please don’t let that go! If u don’t report them, they will continue to treat people like that!!!!
I’m so happy that you are so strong and positive !
Congratulations on your new baby!! Gid bless your new family!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
As a mom I just cannot fathom how cruel, just so evil all those nurses were. How dare they behave in such a deplorable, cold, unsympathetic way at the most vulnerable time of a woman’s life. We should all complain ! They need to be dragged out. My heart hurt hearing this. 😢
Kylie: PLEASE LET GUIDO FILE THE COMPLAINT!!! ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ATTACH A LINK TO THIS VIDEO. As an influencer you have power that others don't! This will be a release for all 3 of you. File it, link video and then release it and rise above!
It is very sad & inhumane. She gave birth in a small town in Tuscany not Florence right? ?Regardless, CZcams & social media influencer don’t mean anything to them. This is not the states. He will file a complaint & should which will get management’s attention.
I really hope this video goes viral. I'm so pissed
@@capri8872 My understanding from an earlier video is this hospital was in Florence.
Well said
@@capri8872 They can go over their heads, they must have a regulatory body (not that they stand for much in any country at times) but going higher with this vid and the views it gets may inspire some sort of response. Why other women make a woman giving birth so stressed is unbelievable to me and unacceptable in this day and age.
Congratulations (after my rant) on the birth of your son. You have many years of happy times ahead.
Kylie
As a mother myself who understands what a vulnerable position you were in, my heart breaks for what you went through. Please please file a complaint against these women.
I'm a father of 4 children all grown, but was at the birth of them all here in the US. The labor and delivery nurses were super professional and encouraging. They knew what to do well in advance of the doctor coming in and doing a cameo role. I would have lost my cool with this kind of treatment of my wife. I am so glad that they staunched the bleeding and you're alive and well. It's a miracle that you were able to continue to breast feed the baby while all this transpired. For my first child, my wife's back gave out and she couldn't produce milk. I'm in awe that you could do so while being in the hospital. BTW it's not that important that we see the baby. He's yours to enjoy solely. I wish you a steady recovery and in time you can enjoy all that is around you!
Coming from a nurse, this experience was inexcusable. Take down names and report and sue. They need to find another career! We are here to serve women in their time of need and while women are vulnerable. Do not let this slide for your family sanity and the sanity and protection for future births. Sorry that this was your experience of your first birth, but your strength and the love you have for each other got you here to this point. Your little one is blessed with such strong loving parents. May you all be blessed with this wonderful time.
Yes! Prevent other women from being treated this why by these people in the future
God less you, Kylie and your son and Guido!
You must live in the USA?
@@nas0075 No, this occurred in Tuscany, Italy.
@@VintageLPs Yes, I know it was Italy. I was referring to the comment made by Denise Hiney. Report and sue? Things do not work like in the USA where you sue for malpractice. It can be done, might take 20 years and not achieve anything.
You need to share this raw and sincere video with hospital administrators. It is outrageous. You haven’t said a thing you should worry about (I’m a lawyer). Your sweet portrayal of this experience is so genuine and heart wrenching and will cause administrative staff concern. If not for yourself, do it for the women who are next admitted.
Great idea yet Will administrators see it? I am sure they have nasty people channeling complaints too. I cannot believe no one has formally complained before! Italian medical (Through the government?) I would think make it difficult to do much. Maybe the medical experience of many are also why so many young Italians are leaving??? I think a more immediate response may be for many of us, especially if you are Italian, to send in letters, emails of disappointment to administration. The more they get, the more embarrassed they may become. Of course only with Kyle's approval. Does Italy also have privatized hospital hours? Privatized staff?
Also the fact that a husband cannot come in due to (post shot) covid is absurd!!! It would have helped Kyle (and nurse from hell) to have support in the pre-birthing room. Time to start a new hospital experience! USA has its medical issues but nothing I have encountered like this.
No Monitor? Also fasting? How strange. Do they do "bleeding "also? Dark ages!
Oh and Kyle I want the name of your shampoo!💇. Beautiful Hair!!
Yes I feel Guido needs to make the complaint - sadly they will take it more seriously most likely. Then include this video as evidence. With a letter including a list of points as summary of the video that describes each incident of neglect and abuse.
Agree with Judith!
I’m crying while watching this and thinking of all the mammas out there that have had to do this alone and with such cruel treatment. I’m soo sorry! I’m glad you are home with your loved ones and that you and your son are doing well. Take care!
Postpartum depression is a real thing. It can happen even more to mom's who had a traumatic birth. Please let you and your loved ones know the signs. Mental health is just as important as physical. Congratulations on your little man. Xoxo
You NEED to lodge a formal complaint Kylie this is beyond disgusting behaviour it’s completely barbaric & totally unethical!!! This hospital should be investigated & you should take legal action taken !!!
I agree! They need to be stopped. How many other wonen have been treated this way?
Kylie, I know I’m echoing so many others here, but I’m so sorry for how traumatic and painful this experience was - physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually - you absolutely deserved better treatment, as did the other new mothers around you. As you said, though, thank God you were in that hospital (horrible though it was overall) so that you could be treated right away after giving birth. In addition to your husband, son, parents, sister, and so many others, there are hundreds of thousands of people around the world who are beyond grateful that you’re still with us. It sounds silly, but I think that, on some deeper level, your son knows the strength that his mother showed and the compassion that his father showed. I like to think that he’ll carry those things with him for the rest of his life.
All of my love to you, Guido, and your precious new baby boy. Thank you, thank you, thank you for continuing to share your light with us. You are a lamp illuminating the darkness that so often makes up the realities of our world. You give us hope, warmth, tranquility, and joy when we need it most.
Gianfranco is in for a wonderful adventure. ❤️
I agree. This is the most horrific birthing story I've ever heard. Kylie, if you have the energy, speak up and make a complaint. I'm so sad that you both went through this. Enjoy every moment with your baby 💖🙏💖 take care
Very well said 🌈❤️
Thank you, Spencer for putting into words, how Kylie's viewers feel.
Spencer, couldn't have said it better.
@@Mechanicalslave ❤️
I have never ever heard such a horrible birth story, my heart pounded with every word you spoke, I are an AMAZINGLY strong human! I literally want to jump into my screen and wrap you in a healing embrace! Bless you Kylie and your baby and your husband. So much love for you my dear 🙏🏻 ❤
Absolutely felt exactly the same
@@leonardniamh me also
I agree-such an unimaginable experience for her.
I did too! My daughter and I are both nurses and cannot believe how horrible they were!
And she’s such a sweet person. It’s sooo sad
Dear sweet Kylie, my heart breaks watching this video, it actually brought me to tears. I am appalled and horrified that anyone in 2022 could experience such barbaric treatment giving birth in hospital, and I've honestly never heard of anything like it. My love and best wishes go out to you and your beautiful family as you put the whole nightmare behind you and embrace the wonderful new experience of motherhood. You are so loved and appreciated by many, and we are praying for your full recovery. Blessings always. 🙏❤
Oh Kylie, I am a maternity support worker in a hospital in the uk and I cannot believe what you had to go through. It is not ok and not acceptable; those women should be sacked. well done to you for being so strong, you are amazing. You listened to your body and had a beautiful birth. keep talking about it to everyone so you can process it. When you are strong again, you may need to put a formal complaint in. Here in the NHS we are over worked and understaffed but would never treat our mothers badly.
As an RN they were completely unprofessional and you do need to file a complaint to stop their behavior. Congratulations on the bith of your son
YESSSSS SUE THEM ALL INCLUDING THE HOSPITAL or nothing will improve!! Horrible horrific
I don't understand how they've been getting away with it so long, unless this is more common than we know in Italy.
As a RN in the states that’s insulting to our profession and I apologize for each and everyone of them. Basta is right!
I’m an RN in the uk and I agree. Disgraceful behaviour from so called professionals. I cant understand this attitude. If I saw this as an RN I’d say something to my colleagues because it’s unacceptable. I’m so sorry Kylie xx
I work labor and delivery and my co worker went to Italy years ago to write a paper on their process there (2009) and it was very old school. They still lined the babies up in the nursery and she was positive there were some mix ups. 😳
Oh, Kylie, I feel so much for you right now😚 I gave birth to my son who is now 12 years old also in Italy, and my experience is so similar to yours that I cried several times during your story. You are an amazing woman, so strong, both physically and emotionally, i'm so glad you and your baby are well, enjoy these precious times with your new born, cause they are priceless. Lots of love to you guys😘
I was so emotional listening to this as a mother of four myself. I'm so sorry for your experience but you're outlook and approach to the situation is being handled with such grace. What a beautiful mother you are, your strong spirit and soul shines so brightly. parent with all your intuition and instincts, only you know best. Enjoy your beautiful baby boy x
No woman in labor should be left without support or treated with such cruelty. I pray you will receive all the support you need during this time of recovery, both physically and mentally. May all trauma be removed from your strong & precious heart.
And welcome to the world little man! ❤
At this point in the pandemic, it seems to me there would be no danger to allowing the father to be with his wife during the entirety of the patient's time in hospital? If anything, her husband would be there to comfort her thruout taking alot of work off the hospital's back. Granted, they allowed him in at the end but should've been allowed to be with her thruout.
Those who we’re supposed to care for you failed utterly. They are not caregivers, they are uncaring and cruel.
Thank God you and your precious baby are doing well now.
As someone who was in the health profession for years and who has one daughter a doctor and the other a nurse, I encourage you to take action against those who were so cruel and the antithesis of a carding professional. They have no business being near a hospital much less a patient.
@@clairelivefreeordie2551 You are so right. My husband is the head of the general surgery at a University Clinic here in Germany. Of course in the meantime all patience can receive visitors and that is not limited anymore. Even during COVID my husband allowed - in difficult cases - family to be near their loved ones. It seems to me that it is just practical for these bad nurses not to have family and relatives around so that their incredible and unacceptable behavior can not be witnessed and that they can have it their way. I have never ever heard such a terrible report from a birth and it makes me furious. Kylie is incredible, but despite of everything I‘m so thankful that she went to a hospital as otherwise….I do not even want to think about it….
Kylie as a lot of people have said before me, please consider filing a formal complaint to the hospital. Not for vengeance but for any other woman who has to go there and give birth. No one should ever be mistreated like you were! This is horrific to say the least. I can’t imagine going through such, both of my births were so easy compared what you described. To me it sounds like not only the verbal abuse but the trauma you endured caused your pain and discomfort. As a mother of two your baby needs burping after each feeding because they can’t get the air and gas out on their own until they are able to sit properly by themselves. It causes their lil tummies to contract and hurt. That woman is evil to say that to you. She knew it would be hurtful not only to your baby but would hurt you knowing you weren’t capable at first to do what needed to be done. Always follow your motherly instincts. You look beautiful and know how strong you are. I’m so happy for you an Guido and you chose a beautiful name. I’m sorry you had to go through such a awful experience with such hateful people. You are blessed beyond measure that your baby and you are healthy and healing! Sending you lots of love!
Absolutely! This is necessary to help prevent this horrific experience from happening to another patient, where the outcome could even be worse, as difficult as that is to imagine. I would also consider taking legal action. This matter needs to be escalated to the authorities in your community. What you described is absolute medical malpractice.
100% AGREE!! All my babies were 'problem burpers' & all 3 had colic as well. What a horrible nurse to say such a ridiculous thing. They should definitely file a complaint. If that's Socialized Medicine I want no part of it.
@@loloholmes2793 oh yes, colic is so excruciating for babies. My second baby I couldn’t breast feed and back in mid 90’s we only had a small town Walmart. There weren’t as many types of bottles as today. My baby had colic bad and I had to go to using the Evenflo bottles with the bag inserts that you could squeeze all the air out. Also used Mylicon gas drops. In the evening between 5-8 pm was her window of colic. It was so heartbreaking. Thank goodness it didn’t last long for her.
Kylie, I can't believe that no one has commented on how absolutely GORGEOUS you look. You have the glow and fullness of a new Mother. You could leave your hair for another month and you would still be amazingly beautiful. And a big flowing of support to Guido also. It must have been very scary for him to see you whisked off to emergency treatment and have to take over being the stable strong support for your baby. Congratulations to both of you. You are a beautiful inspiration and we look forward to what is sure to be wonderful videos of your new family.
Kylie and Guido,
I have spent the last 45 minutes reading comments and did not finish. You are truly loved. PLEASE, PLEASE file a complaint. What happened at that hospital was horrifying!
Congratulations on the birth of Gianfranco.❤️
Hi Kylie , I am an icu nurse from the Philippines and work in the US , I am so appalled how you were treated , I was in tears listening to this video it is such unnecessary cruelty in time of compassion , I am so sorry that you have to be subjected to such inhumane treatment I wish you should file complaints of such negligence and mistreatment. I am praying that you can recover quickly and with your husband and your parents you are in good hands. Godspeed Kylie❤️
I live in Aotearoa (New Zealand) and I don't know why this is, but from my own experiences, Filipino nurses have been the nicest and most empathetic. We have a shortage of nurses here, so if you ever want to emigrate, you'll be welcome here! 😊
Yes, please file a complaint. Otherwise, other women who are not strong like you, Kylie, may not be able to recover afterwards. The after-baby blues are a very real thing and you may help to prevent additional anguish. Recently, I had a very bad experience with a horrid doctor and her staff. I told my orthopedic surgeon about my experience and they are making sure all their doctors don't refer any patients to this doctor.
I agree that you should file a complaint. These nurses positively need to be reprimanded, or honestly in my opinion terminated. There is NO excuse for their behavior! I understand you just wanting to forget it all, but as someone else said, you would be advocating for future women that may have these same ladies. ☹ Sounds as if almost the entire hospital is awful. I'm so thankful that you and the baby are doing well now.
@@NyreeAlana hello, I am so honored with your comments and I hear it all the time with my practice here in the US, I don’t know either it is just natural and normal to us to treat a patient with kindness and dignity no matter what their circumstances is , as we were thought that this person you are suppose to take care could be you one day or any of your loved ones and to give compassion to such an incredibly difficult situation is what she needed at that moment , I am not sure in Italy , we as healthcare professionals have license to lose and there is a disciplinary boards that is in charge to such employees. I hope Kylie would pursue such complaints to advocate to other patients that were treated inhumanely , this just not happened to her there were many who had no voice and if this is exposed… there will be changed the way these so called” professionals “ will treat their patients. Again, thank you.
@@lucillegil5306 I hope she files a complaint too, I think Guido would help her with it if she needs the support. Personally I have been unable to complain when I have been mistreated by medical professionals (only 3 times), as it's mentally too overwhelming. I do feel guilty for not standing up for myself and other patients, but I also know that, with my mental illness, I have to prioritize my mental wellbeing.
I rarely comment on videos but I'm 15minutes in and on the verge of tears listening. I've been a nurse for 10 years and I have recently transfered to become a Labor and Delivery nurse, I'm also a mom of 4. I'm so sad and sorry that this was your experience. It's outrageous that you were treated so poorly and unbelievable that your own husband was not allowed to be there with you during your labor for support 😞 Nurses are supposed to be the patient's advocate, I agree with your husband and others.....please file a formal complaint. Neither you, nor other women who go there to labor deserve such awful treatment.
Please have a blessed life as a new mother🙏
I am a L&D nurse in California, 35 yrs. I have absolutely no words for the way that you were treated!!!! This was abuse. Your outlook and pre-education was phenomenal. I am of Italian heritage, and feel shame to think that this is considered humane patient care. You are a warrior!! Resilient like I have never seen.
Bless you, Guido and your beautiful baby. You have been given a gift, that not even the worst care could reduce. Congratulations Many times over. You are brilliant. Best of health moving forward. You are blessed. 🙏❤️❤️❤️
Unimaginable and heartbreaking for a mother in labor to go through such a terrorizing ordeal. I am so sorry and I hope that you sue the hospital and those that mistreated you. You are so brave and your baby will be so proud of you. You are definitely a Warrior. I can't imagine me or anyone else going through something like this. Great blessings to you and your beautiful family and wishing you and your baby the best of health and God bless.
DEFINITELY DEFINITELY make a formal complaint
Imagine everyone having your back
You are the kindest wisest person in the world
Everyone I am certain feels exactly like this
@Kylie do u think that could be possible? At least some formal complaint? These "professionals" should be penalized somehow. It's really so sad to hear all that. I wonder if there aren't other mothers who might have gone through a similar situation in this hospital.
Absolutely agree - that behavior cannot be continued for the women that come after you! Needs to be stopped and addressed accordingly ma’am.
I know it's a happy ending story but I'm crying so much listening to you in the first 10 minutes. You are so brave and strong.
As an African American woman here in New York, I can completely understand & commiserate with this HORRIBLE experience.
And my girls are 30 & 40 years old! So times haven't changed & apparently evil people are in all countries. If the role to help bring life into the world isn't for a person they should go elsewhere.
I had such horrendous things said TO me & heard things said ABOUT other women that I swore I'd have a home birth for any subsequent children.
I am SO sorry that you or ANY other woman had to be treated that way. Your story made me cry.
What makes your suffering worthwhile is looking at that beautiful face, listening to the cooing, smelling the intoxicating baby smell...
Dearest Kylie, I watched this video in awe of how strong, brave and beautiful you are. It's incredibly powerful to hear about your birthing experience and I truly believe that you had many angels watching over you & your little one the whole time you were at this horrible hospital. It's inspiring to hear how intuitive you were to block out all that negativity being directed at you. You are so blessed & protected, and you are Queen and a class act for the way you handled everything! These so-called nurses & doctors who treated you this way will sadly continue to do this to other new moms unless they are exposed in a more formal way, so I hope you guys file a complaint with the hospital and the courts there. I'm sure the local news media there might also be interested in doing a story about this. I could even see you writing an insightful article about this yourself and submitting it to a local newspaper and/or a more national media outlet. You have an important voice and story here to share that should be heard by everyone. I realize you may not want to deal with any of this right now which is understandable, but at some point, I hope you pursue some of kind of legal action with the Italian authorities. I believe that when we stand in our truth, we light the way for others and we help heal each other. We as women have been silenced for far too long and it's extra sad to hear about female medical professionals who abuse women patients like this. It's toxic and it's unacceptable that they think it's ok to traumatize women like this. Also for what it's worth, I believe that even you doing this video here and being so forthcoming about your experience with us will shed a very important light to this issue and it will be healing. You are a masterful communicator and you are so eloquent. Your beautiful energy, spirit and light brings people together. We are here for you and we love you and we are so proud of you for being you. I hope you know that. Wishing you a speedy recovery and congrats on the birth of your baby boy! Welcome to this world, little Gianfranco! He truly hit the jackpot with a superhero mother like U! Bravo and lots of love from NYC!
OK, Kylie, I’m so angry hearing your horrendous story. I am a nurse [in the U.S.] and these women need to be severely reprimanded! I’m with Guido on this one, please, please file a formal complaint!
God bless you and your beautiful bundle of joy.
The cleaning woman was an angel. Praise GOD.
Yes, an angel indeed and one who has probably seen many women need a helping hand, with a kind word.
the cleaning lady was an
angel sent from GOD to
protect you and little Bean..
she has more smarts in
her pinkie than all those
so called nurses...GO AFTER ALL OF THEM SO
THEY FIND OTHER CAREERS...NOT DEALING
WITH PEOPLE...GRRRR...
you are a real sweet trooper Sweet Kylie..
go get them all GUIDO.TAKE THEM ALL DOWN....GRRRR...
God sent u an Angel in the person of that young girl
How Midieval!!!
In an unlikely support staffer, Kylie encountered the sisterhood that should have been manifest in the professionals.
Kylie…. Your story is so incredibly moving in a truly heart crushing manner … I can’t imagine anyone ever treating a mother in labor or really any vulnerable situation so cruelly. Your story sounds like something out of the “Handmaids Tale” and is truly horrifying. You have prepared yourself well to take on challenges and have such a circle of loving arms and hearts around you to help carry you through the challenges in life and yet the cruel treatment towards you was clearly so dreadfully traumatic. There are so many women in this world who don’t have such support and need compassion any way they can get it. Please continue to allow your loved ones and especially you to nurture yourself. This is so important for a new mother. I hope Guido and you are floating with all that comes with being new parents 😊. I hope that Guido will file a complaint and continue to make noise to make those cruel nurses and OBs accountable for their actions. Perhaps other vulnerable mothers who need advocates might be spared such cruelty. I am so sad to hear your story lovely Kylie but I know the miracle of your baby will infinitely dull the trauma and fill you with healing love and joy. Bless you and your family. ❤
Hi Kylie,
I am married to a Ukrainian and the doctors and nurses I experienced there sound very similar to the ones you have had in Italy. We made the decision to come back to Australia for the births of all our children (last one 13 years ago) and I’m so glad we did. I am so sorry you had to go through such a terrible time when it could have been a more joyous time. You are so strong and so brave the way that you handled things on your own. May God bless you and your little family.
Dear Kylie. It sounds like both you and Gianfranco were fighting for your lives in that horrible place, and you both won the battle! You showed remarkable strength, even at your lowest, and should be very proud of that. Now, please take good care of yourself and your little boy, and allow the people who love you, to take care of you. Congratulations in creating a human life, and know that your videos help so many people. Well done!
This video need to go viral internationally!
So sorry for your birth story. I am a labor nurse near Boston. We would NEVER treat a person like that. Our nurses, obstetricians and midwives are amazingly respectful and caring. You had every right to call your husband. We always allowed partners into labor and delivery all through COVID unless the partner had COVID. If the partner couldn’t be there then another coach would be allowed. That labor unit has an abusive culture and this needs to be changed. You were so well prepared for labor and sounds like you knew just what to do. Congratulations on your new little one. Cherish every moment
My husband and I are beyond sad and horrified at this horrendous treatment from other human beings. We are both near tears at the needless cruelty. Sending big hugs and continued strength along with congratulations for the new addition to your family.
Congratulations to you both. Your birth story breaks my heart, there was no need for those nurses to treat you so disrespectful. Those women need to be fired. No women should be treated that way when she goes to the hospital to give birth. Something needs to be done about the situation in that hospital. All the covid restrictions need to end all over the world, because the protocols are inhumane. God Bless you and your beautiful family .
Benvenuto alla vita piccolo amore!
Siano benedetti i tuoi giorni, sia serena la tua vita! lL'amore della tua mamma e del tuo babbo ti accompagneranno sempre.
E a te, mammina, coraggio! Guarda avanti: tanti giorni felici ti aspettano.
❤
Yes.. not to dilute Kylie's story, but this is the third time i have heard about this inhumane separation due to 'covid' ( yes all over the world ) .., it is evil. What is the point ? To make absolutely certain that there will be trauma to both parents and families ?
And the reasoning behind it is ridiculous.
for SHAME on the hospitals.
Shame on them.
DO NO HARM ❕❕❕❕❕❕
Congratulations to you and Guido! My son had a big head also and I went all natural. I'm almost 70 now and so HAPPY to hear that they're a few young women having natural childbirths. Kudos to you!!! Lucky son.
Oh Kylie, I’m so sorry to hear you had a terrible experience. That happened to me in California. It was horrible. I was in the hospital for 4 days after giving birth. Didn’t even know I had a baby, because they overdosed me. Insane!!! Perfect pregnancy, horrible birthing experience for me. I’m sitting here listening to you and tears are rolling down my face. You will cry over it for a while. I know I did. And, lol, I only have 1 child. I was like never again. I absolutely love being a mother, but there was no way I could do it again. But that’s me. Hopefully you are stronger and can recover more quickly. The difficult emotional memories were the hardest to get over.
same here, makes you wonder if their goal is to make it so terrible and fearful that no one ever wants to birth again. Ill enjoy my one and only as long as Im able, though I always wanted more.
Soooooooo sorry that happened to you here in the US. However I'm not surprised. I keep hearing these horror stories of hospital abuse towards women in labour and during the post partum stage all over the US and many other countries. Hospitals today are becoming more like prisons, and mental asylums where a person would go to simply be tormented and abused! I'm a strong advocate for home birthing or birthing in natural habitats( in the forest, near the oceans, etc) Please don't ever give up in having more children. Screw the hospital and adopt you're own birthing plan with a strong supportive doula, midwife and your'e husband at your side!
@@cbeark Birth without fear honey! Take back you're crown!
I gave birth to my first son in a clinic in Avellino . I had an awful experience. I was treated horribly. Needless to say when I was pregnant with my second son, I cam home to Scotland to have him!
I am so happy your beautiful baby boy is here! PLEASE report these people at the hospital in hope that no one else experiences this during what should be such a beautiful experience bringing new life into the world. I am so sorry this happened to you. WELCOME to the world baby boy! 💖💖💖💖💖
Dear Kylie, I so appreciate your honesty and transparency. I had a traumatic first birth experience. At one point, to motivate me to progress the labor (I was already doing everything that I could) the OB told me: "I'm sharping the knives!" Ugh. It was so negative and unnecessary. As you say, one positive comment can make all the difference. I'm SO glad that you and your baby are okay!!
Those rude people should be fired!
You look good!
I am a surgeon in the US and this story was difficult for me to hear. Their behavior is inexcusable.
Now you know how they probably treated 'Covid19' patients in 2020 especially in Italy.
Kylie, please don't just file a complaint. Please sue the hell out of those creatures. That's the only way there can be change. This is absolutely gut wrenching. My heart breaks to know you went through this hellacious experience.
Healthcare in Italy is for "free" (tax payer pays), but low quality. I've heard stories.
I don't know if you can sue in the case of socialized medicine.
Complain and sue. Bullies who go into medical service is a common thing esp in the states. They continue to prey on vulnerable people. Complain and sue! Free doesn't mean accepting bad behavior!
@@workinprogress3609 it's a person who did something wrong, what difference does it make where that person works?
@@hotmixxable nothing is for free, there's always someone who pays it.
As an Italian living abroad, I'm so full of emotions watching this..sadness, grief, anger, disappointment, disgust.. I wish there was a way for this video to reach Meloni. Kylie, congratulations on the birth of your precious one. Although, it may not seem like it, God was watching over you. Whenever you or anyone else finds themselves alone & in need, cry out to your Heavenly Father, who eagerly waits to come to your rescue. God bless you, Guido e il piccolo Gianfranco 🙏❤
I linked the video in Meloni's channel 🙏
Same here
Thank you for sharing your beautiful soul with us. I am always encouraged to soften into life when I see your videos.
Something needs to be done at that hospital. That is terrible. My heart aches hearing your story. Your son is incredibly lucky to have you as a mom.
I can’t sleep at the moment. It’s 1:45am in Florida USA. And I’ve paused this 8mins in to say how incredibly sad it makes me about how you were treated. How awful Kylie. I am so very sorry. I’m not sure how things progressed yet bc I am only 8mins in, but I had to pause it to say how sorry I am this happened.
Restarting the video. I‘ll add more as I watch the rest. But, I’m so very happy you are back home now. ❤️
Ok, I made it to the end. I didn’t think it would get worse, but sadly it did. I am So very happy the actual birth was healthy and the baby is also very healthy. That is the most important. And that you are safe and home now.
But my God Kylie, what you went through is absolutely heart breaking. I found myself getting enraged listening to how they treated you. I truly can’t believe how awful they were. What an absolute nightmare. All I could think is, how much mental trauma they’ve caused to you and other mothers as well, I am sure.
You are so incredibly strong physically but even more so mentally. I’m not sure most women could have gone through what you did and made it out ok. And I know you will just get stronger and be able to move forward and be ok.
Because you are so strong. But I wonder how many other Mothers are still dealing with the lingering mental strains of having that kind of treatment.
I am rambling because I just can’t put into words how I am feeling right now. I think as soon as you’re feeling better, you and Guido should make a formal complaint.
Don’t let this go. Because something needs to be done. It may help the next mother after you. If I lived there I swear I’d be down at that hospital raising hell on your behalf. And I’d have some words for those awful women.
Praise God for the cleaning lady who helped you and the baby. And praise God you are such a phenomenal strong women. I’m sure that’s what got you through all that.
I’m just so happy you made it through, and you and the baby are doing better and you are getting the care and love you need and deserve now at home. After all that, the rest of the weeks ahead will be a breeze!
I’m just so proud of you Kylie. Your baby and Guido are so fortunate to have you. And please thank Guido for being so wonderful during and after the birth.
This experience is going to make you even stronger than you already are. What an incredibly beautiful women you are Kylie. Be PROUD of yourself. We are all certainly PROUD of you.
God Bless you, the baby, Guido and your families.
I hope this all doesn’t sound too incoherent. It is now 2:45am and I’m a, starting to nod off. But I wanted to finish my comment. I can’t wait for the next video and I pray at that time you will have gained back your strength and things have calmed for you. Sending lots of love from America! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I did exactly the same, I couldn’t watch anymore before I had to leave a comment.
I’ve stopped too…. So shocking and sad at this point😢
This was shocking and frankly barbaric , beyond just 1 person having a long shift or bad day. Sounds like the problems there are systemic, and may have actually caused Kylie’s health emergency. I am torn between outrage and just relief that they both survived.
@@1965tjmet I finally finished my long comment. And I was so sad to hear it got so upset to hear how much worse it got. I just can’t believe the way she was treated. So incredibly sad and horrible. I’m so relieved she’s back home now. 🙏🏼
@@nancyslider645 I feel the exact same way. Torn between those two emotions.
oh my god this story makes me so angry. i had such a similar experience with italian hospital one year ago...i was left alone as well during my labor, i had extreme contractions for 40 hours...it was a nightmare...noone helped me..they told me to take a shower and thats it. you were so right calling your husband, the hospital should help us, THAT IS THEIR JOB!! we need to tell our stories because the world need to know how women treated so badly these days. this is not right!!! i hope you can heal from your trauma soon and will be enjoy your first days with your family
How random to see your comment Barb I was thinking of you while watching Kylie's video, both such traumatic experiences.
I wonder if this is more common in Italy. Or if it happens everywhere and women just don’t discuss it. Thank you both for sharing so candidly and bravely. ❤
@@nomadesseasmr9715 No, it doesn't happen everywhere by any means
I'm shocked that it happened ANYWHERE. It's a complete violation of what medical care givers are taught in regards to compassionate patient care.
I know it's not uncommon in many countries.
@@nomadesseasmr9715 thank you❤ it’s not just Italy. I’m Hungarian and there the situation can be ever worst..there’s a lot of countries where they are not treating women in labor well. A lot of women struggles to talk about their experiences or they’ve been told that “it’s part of it and it’s a price you pay for your beautiful baby” it’s so messed up
Hi Kylie, I am so sorry about the total unnecessary stress you were subjected to during your birth story. But what a trooper you are. Congratulations!!! I wanted to share with you that Candance Owens posted her birth story on her channel about month ago of having her daughter here in America and how she had to also "break" out early from the Hospital with the help of her husband because how the hospital staff conducted themselves. I am so glad you posted your story and she did too. What you both went through needs to stop. Thank God you were so Strong. Blessings to you and Guido and baby Gianfranco...nice name.
OMG Kylie, have the next one in Australia!!
Kylie, it breaks my heart to hear what a horrible birth experience you suffered through. Even if those midwives and obstetricians were busy, there is absolutely no excuse for their appalling behaviour. I hope they all watch this and feel utterly ashamed. I am so glad that you are now home with your beautiful baby, and surrounded by those who will love you and care for you, as you regain your strength. 💜
They won't. Thes medical staff have become cold and heartless since covid happened. I also believe these hospitall staff that have taken the covid vax have changed. It affects the Vmat 2 gene which is the God gene. There is no caring anymore because they've lost their connnection to God.
You should report these women who neglected to do their jobs.
This is highly inhumane and unprofessional.
Please report them so this doesn't happen to anyone again
Kylie, I just couldn't watch until the end. My heart broke for you. I'm so so sorry that you had to go through this. I can't imagine how any human being could treat anyone, let alone a woman in labor, in such a heartless way. Have we truly lost our humanity? You are incredibly strong and god bless you and your sweet little boy.
You look so beautiful as the video starts that I could never have guessed that you had to endure such trauma . I’m just so relieved that you’re ok . Congratulations on the birth of your little Gianfranco.
Sorry for everything that you have been through. After giving birth myself in Italy at 33 weeks, I can’t say that I’m surprised. Well done for your strength 💕
I’m so sorry those nurses were so cruel when you were such in a vulnerable place.
i am a midwife in germany and work in a hospital in the delivery room, for me there is no better job in the world. I am completely appalled at how you were treated and left alone! there is hardly a moment in a woman's life that is more sensitive and worth protecting than the moment when she is giving birth! to strengthen, to give strength, to give security and to be there is the job of the midwife and I find it incredible that these women have let you down!
Dearest Kylie, I wish you from the bottom of my heart that you have a gentle, safe confinement from now on! That you can enjoy the new time!
I want to make you a suggestion and if it feels right to you maybe you can try it. There is a so-called "Rebirthing Bath" for which you lie down in your bed while Guido bathes your son in a tub of warm water, then Guido lays your son naked and wet on your upper body and covers you warmly, Guido is welcome to lie down ! This reflects the moment when your son was born and sometimes arouses strong emotions, which can and should be because they are healing. in the best case, the three of you stay in bed as long as you can and enjoy!
Feel hugged from the heart and congratulations
your Franzi
I am speechless - your strength and perseverance in this situation was above and beyond - I am so sorry it was necessary and that the experience was so traumatic for you and your family. I am glad that you are on the mend thank you for sharing your experience, I can't imagine how hard it is to have to recount something so emotional and raw.
Oh, Kylie, no words. Just so very thankful you’re alive and recovering and enjoying your precious child. Thanks for sharing your story. God bless you three.
Oh Kylie! I’m so sorry for this traumatic experience. You are literally the sweetest, kindest person and to hear that you were treated so horribly breaks my heart. I’m so glad you are finally home and able to be surrounded by loved ones. As someone who has had multiple traumatic births and complications, I would definitely be filing a formal complaint. Everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and care, especially during the process of child birth.
Soak up every moment of these beginnings, capture photos, and jot down little things so you have the memories for always❤
Congratulations on your beautiful baby boy and I’m praying for your swift recovery! Much love!
Kylie, this is absolutely disgusting, We've never heard anything like this, you need to make a complaint, when your on labour
@kellene leone , couldn't agree more
Kylie, I echo Kellene's message to you. I also was wondering if you know of Sarah and Luca from LEAW; they had a similar experience (rudeness of the OBs and no one could be present) but on a visit prior to the birth of their baby, to the point where they chose to go to a different hospital in a different area of Italy.
You are quite an inspiration Kylie. Congratulations on your beautiful baby boy.
I am so sad that you had to experience such a traumatic time, at what should have been the most wonderful experience for you and Guido. You are such an amazing young woman, and you have a wonderful husband who adores you and now a precious son. Focus on the future,as wonderful things are ahead of you.
You are an amazing wife and now an amazing Mother, Sending lots of love, from Canada 🇨🇦
Congratulations to you and your sweet family. Sending blessings and healing.
As an RN (from Germany) I'm actually shocked to hear this. I can't believe how unprofessional and also inhumane this was. I'm so sorry you had to experience this.
I was just thinking that even though I know there are bad RNs here in the states, I've never encountered one through four surgeries and multiple procedures! The level of cruelty that Kylie describes would result in those nurses losing their jobs.
I agree. Speaking up is the best thing you can do. 1. It will give you the validation you need to know you where hurt and you did your part by telling someone in the facility. 2. It will hopefully prevent this from happening to anyone else. I’m so sorry. Just know you are stronger than the strongest who tired to break you down. Rest up and enjoy the new addition to your family. Congratulations.
@@ChristinaRenee2014 after resting SUE them all drs hospital and especially the nurses!! Until they feel the pain and co$t nothing will change. Plus in my opinion get revenge! Incredibly horrible!!

@@elizabethbarronn6696 Really? We're only hearing one side of the story.
Kylie you have just proved that women are really super humans ! Bless you for being so strong, and I pray you’ll have even more energy and regain your strength back even after all that! Congratulations!
Dear Kylie, I was so upset to hear about your bad experience, it has taken me a week to respond, so outraged for you! It is so sad to think that hospital staff feel that they have ‘power’ over women in their most vulnerable state. Thank goodness that you are a strong and resilient lady, so proud of you and I hope that you are feeling better and enjoying your lovely baby. Guido and your families will be very proud of you too. Take good care, love❤
OMG, Kylie, I am so sorry that you have been through such a hard time. A formal complaint needs to be filed against these practitioners and this hospital. Thank God you survived. But the psychological trauma at the hands of these OB’s is unspeakable. The wonderful preparation you made for the babies birth and taking such good care of yourself and then this horrible hospital experience. God bless you and your family. Get recovered soon ❣️❤️❤️❤️🙏
Oh Kylie. You deserved better. I am so thankful your life was saved. You have your beautiful boy.
My God Kylie . You are an absolute warrior. I hate to say this is the scariest birth story I’ve ever heard . Thank God you and baby are ok. Take good care of yourself
My heart broke for you, listening to your story. No one should ever be treated in such a way, especially when they’re going through something that is already so physically and sometimes mentally traumatizing. I think I speak for all of us when I say, we’re so glad you came through it. You are incredibly strong and your beautiful boy is so blessed to have such an influence as a mother 💕
PLEASE report them!!! That behavior is appalling and horrendous! They should not be doing the work they are doing and I’m shocked they are able to get away with it. Please report them and help other women. I don’t know how you got through that, you are so incredibly strong! I hope for better days ahead for you and your family and I hope other women don’t have to deal with those people again.
Well I'm rewatching this and I'm praying you are all well
You are absolutely amazing! I can't believe that you had to go through all that. Those hospital staf sound unbelievably horrible and should all be fired! When you have re-gained your strength back please complain and raise hell, no one should have to go through that at all! It is completely unacceptable. I'm so glad that you and the baby are now safe and healthy. Sending lots of positive energy to you and your family.
Omg, Kylie, I can’t even, like I have no words. The treatment you received was cruel, horrendous, and barbaric and the absolutely last thing a new mother needs. Please, please file a lawsuit, and/or share the name of the hospital with your viewers. Brava Kylie for all your strength and hard work! What you did was NOT easy and you continued to fight. Brava for surviving that horrendous place 🙌🏻
Beyond barbaric wondering if it's like that in Italy. What a horrific experience and you can't even have visitors I've never heard of such a thing. It's evil.
Perhaps you can’t have visitors so that the abuse remains secret!
I'm quite convinced that this IS in fact the reason
That story ripped my heart out!!! That's so unacceptable!!!! I thought Italy was better than that!!! Please file a complaint!!
This is absolutely insane, I seriously can’t believe it’s real. How can such horrible people lack any human emotion, the audacity. You were far kinder than I would be in this situation
First, Kylie, Congratulations! You are a warrior woman! Second, there is absolutely NO excuse for the way you were treated, to be isolated from your support system and then so cruelly bullied and gaslighted at every turn. Sadly, this tyranny is a feature and not a bug within the medical industrial complex, designed to push medical intervention. It’s all about power and money and it is an utter disgrace! So much respect to you for soldiering through an experience that many women would have fallen victim to. Perhaps you can be a vehicle to raise awareness and demand reform, because pregnancy and childbirth are not a disease but rather a spiritual and life changing experience that deserves to be holistically supported.
You are a bright and beautiful light. Blessings to you and little Gianfranco!
Hey Kylie, I'm a nurse from the United States and I am absolutely appauled by how you were treated! Their behavior was unacceptable and I'm so sorry you had to experience that and be treated in such a horrible manner. I could never imagine treating one of my patients or anybody that way, especilaly in such a vulnerable state. Also, the way they neglected you and didn't listen to you throughout the expierience is incredibly unsafe and I'm still shocked by the course of events you described. I'm sending you love from Utah and I wish your little family the best!
If a person with a voice in your position doesn't do anything, what is to expect from simple people who are going through this hell every day - this tends to get worse and worse if nothing is done about it. Hell yes, make a complaint, escalate to their superiors, make their names known to everyone - this has to stop!
So wonderful to hear you both are healthy and happy, in spite of what you’ve been through. I do t blame you for keeping him to yourself for now. Protective instincts are there for a reason!
Oh Kylie, I'm literally tearing up listening to your birth story...my gosh, what a horrible experience with the nurses, shadowing what should have been a more comfortable, joyous experience. Thank goodness for the housekeeper, the kind nurse and the team who worked quickly when you were in crisis. Much love and well wishes to you, Guido and your new little one 💜.
I started crying because this is so beautiful that your little one is with you but not how this entire experience should have gone. I really hope you file a formal complaint against these women because they should not be in the medical field their behaviour is going to get someone killed. I am so glad that you are so strong mentally and physically. Congratulations to both of you on your beautiful little one!
I started crying too - we have a happy ending with mum and babe home. Still, I just think so many episodes in this birth could have been handled better - for all.
I was hospitalized while on a trip to Tuscany 3 years ago, I am NOT surprised at your treatment; I had a similar experience, medical care there is not even close to acceptable or up to modern standards. I’m sorry you had to experience it also. I too couldn’t wait to get out of that hospital!
I don't often comment but I had a similar incident with one nurse many decades ago when my son was born. No one deserves to be treated like that EVER! To be treated like that by such wicked people, nurses to boot! I am so sorry you had to go through such a nightmare for such a miraculous time in your life. Congratulations on the birth of your son. Great job Kylie, you will be a great Mom.
Strength comes out of hardship.
👑 you are a queen .
Those boys are very lucky to have such a strong wife & mother.
Your calm after such a harrowing experience amazes me. It shows your good upbringing.
I’m so happy for you all! ❤️❤️❤️. I understand why you might hesitate to make a formal complaint about your treatment in the hospital. But consider please that unless the standard of care is improved the next new mother might not be able to handle things emotionally.
It truly sounds like there could be a correlation between Italy’s low birth rate and the kind of treatment newborns and mothers are subjected to.
At any rate, I hope you have all the love and care you both need. Your joy in your baby will multiply daily. Much love!
Mothers could lose their lives and the child lives with those unprofessional ob's
I’m a midwife in Australia and I’m so so sorry you experienced such terrible treatment for your birth. It’s unacceptable behaviour from the staff, midwife/nurse and doctor.
I haven’t even watched your full video but I wanted to write to you.
You are so strong and powerful. You did it! You got through that experience. It’s such a shame you were not supported as you should have been.
Sending you so so much love ❤️
Oh my gosh Im so sorry that your birth was so traumatic Kylie. You are a very strong woman. Love to your little family of three, I hope you all continue to rest and regain strength.
Hi Kylie. I hope you can find a good therapist so that you can process this traumatic event. I didn’t get help until 2 years after my son was born and I developed chronic pain from the physical and emotional trauma. I’m still learning and trying to recover. I know you have a good support in you partner and your family but you have been through so much. I wish you well, you are a light in this world. My heart goes out to you ❤️
I am shocked! You are so brave. It is criminal how you were treated I cannot stop crying. You must report these terrible people so no other woman has to go through this barbaric treatment. Your angel boy will help take this pain away.
Kylie, I'm so sorry to hear this! But I also unfortunately know that you're not the only one... If you want to know more, there's an Italian CZcamsr, Iris Babilonia, who spoke about her own terrible experience in the hospital. She also started to collect similar stories and she tells those in a series of videos on her channel (Orrori in sala parto). This horrible thing has a name, and it's violenza ostetrica, and is unfortunately very common in Italy...
I hope you're doing better and you'll manage to get through this ugly, traumatic experience. Sending you love
Un grandissimo abbraccio a tutti voi ❤️❤️❤️
Ps: you should definitely file a complaint, it's an important step to stop this kind of unprofessional behavior. So many women decide not to, and they don't even want to speak about this because of the trauma and the shame they feel, even though they are the ones who were abused.
And this was abuse. It was negligence. It was abuse of their power and their working position.
Yes it was abuse. They need to file a class action lawsuit. They could use the proceeds as seed money to start a natural birthing center with midwives and with doctors on staff available for emergencies.
Omfg Julia how is this a thing? Obstetric violence? Why? Where does this come from?
@@knightsbridgedentalcarelon2425 Honestly, I have no idea. Burocracy in Italy is... weird. Not knowing the names of the nurses/doctors involved make it difficult to report abuse, because public hospitals cover their bums. There are many victims who tried to sue, I think there are some associations trying to bring this to the public eye, but in Italy there's the tendency to "sweep problems under the rug"...
I’m so so sorry!!! Kylie, your treatment is absolutely unacceptable. 1000% those nurses need to be fired immediately. They are horrible. I’m so thankful you are ok and finally home. Both you and your precious baby. ❤ Sending you love and support. You did amazing. You ARE amazing!
I am appauled by the treatment you received in the hospital and in all honesty, I am grateful that you survived all of this. Your husband and family must be livid. You must report these people and raise as much hell as possible. This could have ended very, very badly. What a disgrace that this happened. These people need to be held accountable! I must say that you look wonderful and I'm sure the baby is gorgeous. Take care. God bless you and your family.
I am in shock after hearing all the abuse you had to endure with that nurse, basically the hardest part wasn't even delivering the baby but all the stress she put you through. That is terrible coming from a nurse that is supposed to be empathetic even if she is exhausted, there is no reason to do what she did, that is horribly abusive. You HAVE to submit a complaint not just for the hardship she put you through but to prevent this from happening to other women because the more this nurse and the other staff continue doing this the more encouraged they will feel to unleash their wicked behavior in the future if no one put a stop to this.
Kylie, having children is not something I want, but I'm always in awe with how powerful mothers are. I wanted to say how sorry and angry I am for you and all the women who are bullied like this at their most vulnerable. I hope you get to process and heal at your own time, cause this experience was a horrific nightmare, no one deserves this :( I'm so sorry
Congratulations on the birth of your beautiful baby boy…my heart goes out to you on the horrible inhumane treatment you received from some of the nurses while you were in the hospital but you handled that so well. As a nurse, it infuriates me that you experienced that but in the end I’m so glad you and your baby are doing well. Sending you all light and love and so happy he’s here and healthy. Well Done Mama Kylie…You did a great job!
This brought a tear to my eye. As a new mother of a 1 year old my birth experience is still fresh. I had a traumatic start too but this sounds like hell for the first couple of days. I am sorry you went through this, but you are incredibly strong and it's amazing how quickly you sprung up from this. Sending love. You are amazing mama
Kylie, I'm so proud of you & crying watching this 💜 I'm a third year student British midwife and I am outraged & sickened to hear of your experience, even more so because I'm a new first time mama too with a five week old baby boy. (We had our baby moon in Florence in the spring, inspired by you). You are so incredibly strong & to have laboured under those bullish conditions, I have heard how medicalised Italy can be & I'm just so sorry you had people who didn't believe or trust in your body, but how strong in mind and body you are to trust yourself in spite of everything 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 You could talk to a doula or midwife and debrief your birth. Can't believe they still have those crazy COVID rules,,,, Wept when you mentioned the kindness of the nurse. I had my baby boy at home surrounded by my husband, parents and friends and midwives and truly could not have gotten through without their kindness, words and support (and the water from the pool). I kept thinking of all the women in the world who didn't have that support and it made me cry, my midwife had to keep reminding me not to focus on it. Kylie, you birthed your beautiful son and you should be so proud, may these early days and the months and years to come be filled with so much tenderness, nourishment and blessed moments. Prayers for healing, rest and peace over your new blooming family, well done super woman!! You are surrounded with beauty which truly brings rest and restoration for the soul, mind and body. So much love 💞
Sending Love your way Kylie. I ditto all of the comments above and am amazed that after all of this trama you are able to share so many beautiful things with us . “For such a time as this .”
You are Warrior woman but for now REST. ❤❤❤❤
Kylie...I'm watching this with tears in my eyes. I can't imagine what you went through psychologically and physically. I'm so sorry this happened to you as your sweet soul didn't deserve it. Your first birth should be a magical and happy experience and they robbed you of that. How awful of them! Your attitude is so impressive from what you went through. Now you can focus on you and the baby and getting completely recovered. Well done beautiful lady! Even after giving birth and not washing your hair since then you look absolutely radiant. Praying for you and your little amore.
