Diagnosed With A Rare Condition (Vasa Previa) // MY BIRTH STORY
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 09. 2024
- My birth story with William is a story I never imagined I'd be telling. It was a vastly different experience than my previous two births and far more scary. I am so thankful that he is here and healthy, that I'm doing well postpartum, and for the amazing team of doctors, nurses, and experts who guided us through it all ❤️ But most importantly I praise the Lord my God for watching over us all and protecting us every step of the way.

#vasaprevia #birthstory #csectionbirth
I just got diagnosed with complete placenta previa and marginal cord insertion. I found your channel the day I found out and it has been a source of hope and comfort for me. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Praying for you
Hoping for a safe delivery ❤️
Hi Chelsea! I had complete p p diagnosed at 20 weeks and by 36 weeks it moved up enough for me to have a vaginal birth! I was hopeless, but it turned out okay! I had no bleeding throughout my pregnancy, no complications whatsoever. Good luck to you, Im sure everything will be alright
I'll be praying for you, Chelsea ❤️
I’m sitting in the hospital after having my baby via C section yesterday because of Vasa Previa. We didn’t find out until 32 weeks and had baby girl at 35 and 4 days. Thanking god they found it and now we have a healthy baby girl. Thanks for sharing your story 🥰
Wow congratulations!! ❤️
I have twins that were born at 34 weeks and 3 days because I was diagnosed with vasa previa. I am so grateful you made this video. This was so scary and I am so happy we all have our healthy children!!
Congratulations, darlin ❤️ I'm so happy for you.
Thank you for sharing your story and for educating us on this. It’s remarkable how many pregnancy books I read to prepare for my two babies and not once did I ever come across this condition. Pregnancy and birth really are miracles. So happy that you and William made it through and are both healthy and happy.
Some of the nurses we had hadn’t even heard of it! So thankful he’s here and safe ❤️
After my second baby I am fully convinced that getting pregnant, being pregnant en then giving birth are miracles. My first was a c-section. My second natural, but she had jaundice because of our different blood types. She had to stay for 2 weeks in the hospital. It is verry hard to not be at home with your baby, but you would move the world for it so she could get better. Thank you @LoeppkysLife for making this video! 🥰
@@Alex347Fin absolutely, it’s just astonishing how many ways pregnancy and birth can suddenly become high risk. My friend’s placenta attached to her uterus and she had to be rushed into surgery right after delivery, didn’t even get to see baby. It’s scary. In one sense I’m glad I didn’t know about these scenarios but on the other I feel like with all the research I did I wasn’t prepared. I can only imagine how shocking it would be to go through this. Really puts a new perspective on just how much of a miracle pregnancy and birth are. So thankful my babies are ok. Saying thankyou also because many birth stories aren’t shared too much and I mean so many women even struggle to conceive but we just don’t talk about it a lot. It’s amazing to have the ability to have an open dialogue for education and awareness.
So true, Nishie. Every one of my pregnancies I felt like something happened that I had no experience with (I have 6 kids 😜). I'm planning on becoming a midwife when my kids are more grown, and I'm so grateful now that I have some experience in so many different conditions so I can give appropriate encouragement or advice to my patients.
@@PromisedJubilee with all your knowledge and firsthand experience it sounds like you would make an amazing midwife! Best of luck
The part about him flipping up & then back down again, just in time for the ultrasound gave me mega CHILLLLS😭
Wow love, what a powerful testimony about William flipping over at exactly the right times. God's presence is tangible throughout your whole pregnancy!
As I sit here watching your video knitting a baby blanket these verses come to mind: "For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well." Psalm 139 13-14.
Thank you for sharing!
Amén!
Promised myself I wasn’t going to cry but I stood no chance. So happy that you and your baby boy are happy and healthy 💕
I’m in tears. I’ve not listened or watched any c section videos/birth stories before. It’s bringing it all back to me. ‘I know you’ that feeling. The worry you have that somehow not giving birth vaginally will leave you feeling disconnected from your baby just melts away. Thank you so much for sharing. My baby was born via emergency c section exactly 1 year before William entered the world.
When you first saw William and said “I know you”, all I could think about was how that adequately describes God’s love for us. Brought me to tears.
“…to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge…” Ephesians 3:18-19
Why you makin' me cry, Rachel?! 😭😭😭😭
So true. So true.
Before I could see the full caption, I thought something was wrong with William. Thank God all is well. You're an amazing mother Delilah
Same! So glad everybody is healthy 😊🥰
So did I lol
Me too! I was shocked but I am glad everything is good 🥰
Me too. Thank God all is well.
Me too, my heart sank in my chest
June 11th is my parent’s anniversary. My dad passed away seven years ago, so this story and little Will being born on that day is a sweet reminder of God’s love and goodness. 🌈
Thank you for talking about how you felt with the spinal. Numbness is something that makes me super anxious, too, so to hear you say it wasn’t that bad really helps. I was always terrified of this situation/getting an epidural because of that anxiety. I’m also so happy everything went okay!
She also nailed the description! My nurse told me it'd feel like you were peeing and it does hahaha. I had an epidural not a full spinal for a vaginal but still the same feeling.
Of my 6 kids, I've had 2 spinals/c-sections and they both went perfectly, and I've never had even a smidge of negative symptoms afterwards. I wish more people talked about when they went fine so people can have more peace during the birth of their babies.
Such a powerful and beautiful story!
The fact that William turned just in time is truly a miracle. Thank you so much for sharing everything you've been through ❤️
I just had my baby Aug 2 at 26+5 days. He’s currently in the NICU, and I can relate to the difficulty of leaving the hospital no longer pregnant but empty handed. I praise God my Son is in the best place possible and your video gives me hope that soon I’ll be able to take him home! In Jesus name. 🙏🏼 these babies are resilient.
Wow. Cried my eyes out. So evident how the Lord was so faithful and at work ❤
Don't apologise for making us cry! What a beautiful story and testimony! Those angels were certainly around you and baby William.
I was tearing up watching this. Thank you for sharing. I had to have a C-section with my daughter in January (after being in labor for 26 hours), and it was *hard*. So hard. I’m sorry you had to go through this. Thanks be to God, though, for keeping you and William safe. ❤️
Something I would recommend: it’s important to have massage work done on your scar, to break up the scar tissue. It’s so important for recovery and will up your chances of having a VBAC. 🙂
Love you guys and your channel! ❤️
Yes a lot of people can't understand how hard a c-section can be. And a lot of people still think it is the easier way out.
After 26 h I also had to get an emergency c-section and because of the epidural I got a spinal headache after it. I could not stand up and care for my daughter because of it. And because one Doctor just said I didn't have it. 2 days later I still couldn't stand up until another doctor final diagnosed me with spinal headache. I got a blood patch and could leave the same day because it works immediately.
And then a week later I got a c-section infection. And I had to go to the hospital again without my daughter...
I never want to experience this again. And I can't imagine how hard it is to leave the baby in the hospital. It is heartbreaking.
@@AC-iw5mv Her heartrate dropped after every contraction and when i got the c-section there saw that her cord was around her neck. :) So it was actually good to get the c-section but the time after it was horrible.
My son was also in the nicu for 6 days. It was the absolute hardest thing I’ve ever experienced. Having my baby taken from me, no skin to skin, nothing. I didn’t even get to hear him cry until much later. And being discharged without him was a nightmare. I can’t even think or talk about it. I had watched your videos while I was pregnant and I couldn’t believe I also had to send a baby to the nicu. It was absolutely awful. Thank God our boys are doing well now.
Mine was born premature and was in nicu for 8 days. It started a long journey of difficulty bonding and postpartum depression which turned into general depression, all of which is barely starting to resolve 5 years later with my second baby, now one month old. It's been so hard but i understand what you went through.
I sit here in tears with you mama as I lay in my bed with a bad case of Mastitis and my 12 day old son remains in the NICU. This is my first day away from him and it is the hardest thing ever! Thankful for my husband and the amazing team of nurses and doctors that are caring for him now in my stead. Thank you for sharing your experience Delilah, what an opportunity to bear each others burdens and mourn with those who mourn. Mourn the loss of what we expected, and yet take joy in knowing that our sovereign Lord was and is always in control and working all these things out for His glory and our ultimate good. What providence from the Lord you have received, glory to God indeed!
I started crying when you said,"empty belly and empty arms." We just lost our first baby on July 13th, 2021 to stillbirth and that was the worst feeling while leaving the hospital.
I am so glad William is okay 💗
I am so, so incredibly sorry for your loss 💜
@@katiewatts8046 thank you 💗
Hey mama I’m a year late, but I hope you’re doing better now and recovering 💞 🌈.
I had a low placenta with my third. Thankfully the placenta moved and I was able to deliver safely. Thankfully they were able to see this and safely deliver him. Such a blessing.
Thank you for sharing this. I felt so alone in all the complications of pregnancy when we kept getting random "we aren't sure but it may be...." diagnoses...as the pandemic was picking up. Seeing more women like you sharing the not so beautiful parts of pregnancy would've made it less lonely and scary 😰
Oooh Maria!!! I can't believe you're here. I have not yet heard your story if you've shared it. The feeling of being alone in the pandemic was so real for us. I get that. I am glad Stella is healthy and such a cool little toddler now.
I had never heard of Vasa Previa until a month ago when I was diagnosed with Type 2 Vasa Previa. I am 27 weeks pregnant now and we are in the “wait and see” period of my pregnancy. I either am a candidate for a fetal scope surgery or am going to be hospitalized at 30-32 weeks for monitoring until 34-36 weeks and have a scheduled c-section. I so appreciate your story. I’m happy to see a happy healthy baby after your pregnancy journey!
I think the worst part of my emergency c-section wasn't actually the c-section but the recovery straight afterwards. Being alone in that dark and quite room, not having seen my son because he needed oxygen was very upsetting.
That was my worst fear. I'm so sorry that happened. I'll be praying for your healing, physical and emotional ❤️
@@PromisedJubilee Thank you! I appreciate that ❤ I'm doing good now though, my twins are nearly 6 months and are happy little boys 😊 I think having a wonderful husband and knowing that having the c-section was for the best, has helped me come to terms with what I experienced.
@@MissMikato so sweet. I'm glad. You're right. It's a different kind of sacrifice, but still such a parenting sacrifice, y'know? Parents are always giving in unexpected ways for their kids.
I was diagnosed with placenta previa as well! I was never told it could become a dangerous condition for me or my baby, I live in Germany, my German isn't great, maybe I just didn't understand, it solved itself, but now I can see it could have been pretty dangerous. Thanks Delilah! God bless William.
Watching this after giving birth via caesarean 3 days ago! I was extremely overdue at 42 weeks and 3 days. They became worried about babies size and after laboring for close to 30 hours they realized I was not making any progress. He is here now, all 10 lbs. 12 oz. of him, and I could not be more grateful. Thanks for sharing your C-section experience with moms like me.
It’s so amazing what we learned and benefitted from with the advances in science. Not too long ago a pregnancy like yours, one progressing so normally, would have ended with devastating results. Yay science and medical research!!
Foof, crying, and it's just so shocking. Such a serious complication, and what a miracle it really was that he flipped for the ultrasound. It's incredible, what a blessing to you all. I'm mildly speechless about this whole story, and that's after have a high risk pregnancy and delivery myself.
It’s so wonderful to finally hear your story. I can’t believe you went through so many scary, life-threatening twists and turns. It’s absolutely evident that God was holding his hand on your family the entire way. (And it’s amazing at how connected you were with William the moment you laid eyes on him!)
I can’t imagine the stress and worry you and your husband went through. You’re such a good mama, William is perfect ❤️
I’m so glad that everything turned out well despite not having your ideal birth. Grateful that the complications were only with your pregnancy and the placenta, and William is healthy.
Wow. What an incredible testimony - This video just left me in awe. While I'm sure it was unimaginably emotional and hard, it was truly God's hand at work and seeing Him work with a little baby like that- having him flip at just the right time- is incredible. What a loving Father we have, hallelujah! So glad mom and baby are safe, happy, and healthy.
Praise God for William Shepherd (absolutely love that name) and for giving you the strength to get through all that! Thank you for sharing your journey and the real and raw moments that you experienced!
Thank you for sharing your life on here, I'm always so encouraged and really enjoy watching your videos.
Delilah thank you so so much for this video! I was diagnosed with vasa previa with my twins and had a planned c section at 34 weeks and 3 days. Usually with twins they take them out between the 33-34 week range because there is a higher risk of contractions, water breaking etc. My boys are healthy and strong and I am so glad they are here. I am so so grateful you shared this video and increased others knowledge of vasa previa and it’s seriousness. I am so grateful we have our sweet boys here safe!!
Heya! Found your vid looking for testimonies. Found out a couple of weeks ago that I have vasa praevia AND placenta praevia - exact same complications. Your video has given me so much hope. I'm an Australian living in Uganda, and while I love it here, I've certainly had a lot of fears about the medical system's ability to care for our case. I love the part of your story where you sweet boy went breach - such a beautiful reminder that God cares. I've felt so strongly to pray for our miracle (that both conditions would be healed), but I'm seriously struggling with the anxieties of it all. Thank you for sharing you story, I've wept with you!
Please pray for us, and for our medical team 🙏🏽 we are praying for a vigorous cry too ❤
Hi, is your baby and you ok?
@@charlie_m4707 YES! Baby girl ended up getting a HUGE miracle where the placenta moved at 35 weeks - both the Vasa Preavia and Placenta Preavia were resolved! However, we had a few more issues after that with low fluids and a double nuchal cord (cord around her neck twice), so we had an emergency c-section at 37 weeks. She was born so healthy and needed zero interventions! We were sent home 2 days later! She's almost 6 months and THRIVING!
Yep, I definitely cried. Especially when you said he flipped breached for the ultrasound. It truly is gods work.
I’m delivering at the same hospital any day now! I’m comforted knowing they have such a great medical team on board there. Thanks for sharing your story
Thank you for sharing your experience, Delilah. Honestly, placenta previa, or any previa, is so scary. It could be fine most of the time, but as mothers, or soon to be mothers, it can be so terrifying. I had marginal placenta previa and told that after a while that it cleared itself and would be okay. Boy, was that a lie. Fetal distress, a traumatizing forceps delivery, and near death experiences later.... Luckily we are both here and alive. Found out later that my placenta was missing blood vessels and had ruptured.
This was so emotional and beautiful! Thank you for sharing your story sweet mama. God was watching over you guys, this was just so beautiful!! 🤍 💕
This video has just reaffirmed the pure and absolute love that a mother has with their children. Lots of tears shed but you have the most perfect little one. Love you and love your family
Hey Delilah - nurse here. Spinal and epidurals are just in very slightly different spaces in your spine in case you're interested😊
So glad you and W are looking so well
I also had Vasa Previa with my first child, exactly the same diagnosis as you. I can relate to your story so much, it's such a crazy ride. With vasa previa it's a blessing to get diagnosed on time, it's literally life saving. Thank god you are all happy and healthy. May you have only boring pregnancies from now❤️
I only had a beautiful 5 minutes with my son before they took him away to the NICU for heart related life saving care. I was so grateful that i had 20 weeks to grieve and prepare for that moment. When it was finally time i was prepared and was like "take him! Take him! Save him!" I was at peace. I've always said i can't imagine not having that prep time. How heart breaking.
Omg Delilah... honestly i NEVER tought that your condition was so dangerous... i always trully felt that you and Will would be ok after all! Which is true, thank God! 🙏🏽 Im already crying and i still have to watch the rest of the video... you are so strong 😭❤️
Wow. So thankful that the Lord is listening and watching over his children. I didn’t realize just how many tissues I would go through watching this. Thank you for sharing! Sending lots of love. 💕
Oh man! This is just like our Jesus! His hand was all over this situation and you and William! This is such a testimony Delilah. Don’t ever stop telling it! You don’t know how many people this could touch!
I followed your pregnancy so close, Always keeping you in my thoughts. I'm so glad you both are ok and Happy and home.
Literal chills as you were talking about how Will flipped back and how you knew the Lord was with you and among everything..God is so good ❤️…what a beautiful miracle ..no doubt you and Will were in the best hands Delilah …what a testimony 💛
God was definitely watching over you and William. When I gave birth to my William 5 months ago his cord was between my cervix and his head. We had to get completely prepped for surgery with a surgical team waiting in theatre, I was so nervous and emotional as I've never had surgery before. They did a final ultrasound when everything was prepped and his head was on my cervix with the cord out of the way so they could break my waters and continue with an induction. I was so thankful.
Thank you so much for sharing such an intimate moment with all of us. I was diagnosed with Cholestasis at 36 weeks and was told I would have to be induced at 37 weeks as it was no longer safe to carry him full term. It was very close to being an emergency c section, but after forceps and the vacuum he was born. He had a broken collarbone and also needed the feeding tube. He spent 9 days in the NICU and the way you described William being taken away while you had to stay was exactly how I felt. I was discharged after 4 days and going home without a baby was the hardest thing I have ever done. I am so happy both of you are okay, congratulations on your bundle of sweet sweet joy mama ♥️
I’m currently 23weeks &I just got diagnosed with vasa previa😔I’m so scared and I pray and hope everything goes well for my baby and I. Thank you for sharing your story
hi how did it go ?? i just got diagnosed today and im so scared
Praise the Lord.
I had complete previa with two major bleeds and an emergent section at 34 weeks. God was completely at work in my life during that time as well. He loves us!
Oh how He loves us bless you and your little one in Jesus name!
I’m a VP mom also - and I wish that it was more talked about. Because it’s so rare, so few doctors or midwives bring it up. What gets me is how treatable it is, and how tragic it can be when undetected. My experience was so dramatic - they went back-and-forth so many times as to whether or not I had it. I could tell something was wrong with my pregnancy, but the MFM doctors blew me off. Thank God for my midwives - they were the only ones who listened to me. I found out three days before delivery at 37 weeks that I had vasa Previa, only because my baby went transverse. Always trust your gut and don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself if you feel like something’s wrong.
I was told at my 20 week scan a couple weeks ago that I have partial placenta previa- thanks to you sharing about yours before I knew what they meant and it was much less scary. Fingers crossed the placenta moves, but seeing (even with your more severe conditions) that your baby boy still came out safely and healthy gives me so much hope 💛
Did yours end up moving?
Oh my goodness Delilah, you really touched my heart with this video. I totally cried. My son is 9 months old and we have been in and out of hospital a few times. Praise the lord that he has been watching over our babies and thank you for sharing your story and know that we are all here for you 🫂
Oh my goodness, Delilah
Praise the Lord!
You did make me cry; what a beautiful story of God’s faithfulness
What a beautiful story. I had my son at 37 weeks by c section and he had respiratory issues and was Intubated. He had a feeding tube and spent a couple weeks in nicu. You telling your story brought up so many emotions for me. I cried when u talked about sitting in recovery alone empty stomach and empty arms 🥺. I remember that feeling so well but also fighting the pain to go see him ASAP. So similar to my situation. I had placenta previa and he was breach. My blood pressure went up so he came early. He is now thriving at home and is one month old. God is so good 🤍thank you so much for sharing
I am crying so hard 😭. Wish William all the health and happiness in the world always 🕊🤍
God was definitely watching over you and William. The fact that he turned breech so that they could get a better look at his umbilical cord, the vessels that were exposed and the position of the placenta and then he moved back into his normal position just showed how he was orchestrating everything so that they could deliver baby safely with much less risk to you. May he continue to watch over you as you heal and recover. I will keep you in my prayers. 🤗👍🏻🙏🏻❤️
I am a neonatal nurse, who also went through my own dramatic, different than expected pregnancy and birth situation. My heart aches for you how much this has affected you. It stays with us longer than we expect. Congratulations on your beautiful boy
Ahhhh what a miracle! God is so good and this is such clear proof of His hand working in your lives 🤍
I’m so happy to hear you say all the things you did about God and how you believe in His protection and in His amazing works, like having William flip just for the ultrasound. So many younger generations don’t believe in God and it makes me so sad, but to hear you say that you do has rekindled my hope! And to see such a beautiful miracle baby has helped me remember to pray for others to believe in Him. Prayer is powerful and should always be our first line of defense💝
Congratulations! I’m glad that you, William, and your entire family are together….safe, healthy, and happy💖💛💖💜
I should have listened to you and gotten tissues 😭😭😭. I’m so happy that everything worked out and God’s love and grace guided you and that precious soul. Now that precious soul is over a year old and thriving!! May God continue to bless your family 🙏🏻💞
Parenting begins in so many different ways, each one as valid and precious as the rest. Your relationship with William had a scary, rocky start, but you came through it together. That's perfect. 😊
Don't be sorry for crying, it was an emotional time. I'm glad everything turned out great! Thanks for sharing! Your kids are adorable. :) :) :)
Although my last baby is 10 yrs old 😢, this video made me sooooo emotional. I had never heard of anything like your condition. I had a NICU baby with pneumonia and he spent 13 days incubated. 7 of which he was intubated. It's truly any parents' nightmare. You feel so empty. Glad everything went beyond great for you and bub's.
This popped back up on my feed and I had to rewatch it. When you said grab the tissues tears were already coming from my eyes 🥲🥲 I literally live alone, yet I’m talking to the tv saying “ That little William said I’m coming to earth!!! You can’t stop me!!! I’m going to crash right into it but I’ll be okay ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 because I am a storm!!!!!!! I am strong!!! I am built for this world!!! “ gosh the thought of all this… I love your videos and to follow your family’s journey truly is a blessing in itself. To see where he is now 🥰🥰 God always has a plan ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 even if it’s a tough one 🥴 much love, keep being you mama bear
I have reacted before, that I also had vasa previa and my son is just 2 months older. Our stories are so incredibly similar (some minor differences).
The thought of the possibility of not having my baby earthside kills me, I am so thankfull I was diagnosed. And your videos of newborn William bring me right back to my hospital stay. You have me crying!
Cried along with you - this is so emotional and touching the deepest parts of the soul. With the same diagnosis, I am expecting a C-section, hoping for the best. Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful story.
And what a blessing William Shepherd is to your family. Things always have a way of being the way they're supposed to. Thank you for sharing you experience with so many young woman that may be going through similar. My kids are grown men now with kids of there own and we still talk about their deliveries. Those memories will never fade. They are an indelible presence on who you are now since experiencing this. And will help mold you into the woman you are meant to be. Blessings from the States. You made this Mom- Mom shed a tear or two. Of happiness. 1😇🥰
God is always with us, and works in so many different amazing ways 🙏
My baby was born on the 15th of June by induction, so when I watch your videos I ugly cry over William's journey. ❤
Thank You Father for taking care of your precious children Delilah and William ❤ You truly have a plan for good for us, and anyone who trusts in You will not be put to shame!
Nothing but the blessing of God. Good things come to those who wait 💙💙. Welcome , William.
Wow! I had Vasa Previa as well. Super scary but everything turned out well in the end. So glad it did for you too.
I have just been diagnosed with Vasa Previa at my 20 week scan…. I’m absolutely terrified and watching this has made me feel a lot better. Thank you for sharing ❤heart
Oh Delilah. This is the most incredible birth story I've ever heard. I'm so thankful for you that he turned breech so they could see everything clearly. I cried so much watching this. God is so good. There is no doubting that His hand was protecting William. Thank you for sharing 💕
That's a wonderful story, showing God active in your life
My baby girl was in the NICU for five days after she was born and I’m still grieving over the feelings of fear I had during those moments as well as the moments I lost right after she was born since I wasn’t able to be with her 24/7. Thank you for sharing this 💗
I did NOT think I would cry… but oh my goodness… the hand of God was so evident in this birth. William’s story is so miraculous. What a strong boy. And what a strong Momma! 🤍
I’m 35 wks pregnant with my 2nd baby, a girl. Bawling my eyes out along with you! I can’t imagine having a stillborn, soooo grateful that God held you guys in His hands 🙌🏼
Wow! What a story! I am so happy with this happy ending/beginning. And this little man is definitely a smart vigorous one! First for moving for the scan and second for announcing he made it by crying out loud. Beautiful! A big hug to you guys. And I still cant with Eloise’s reaction when meeting Will 🌻
Thank you, God, for taking care of little William and his mommy! We are so thankful for your hand of protection.
Thank you for sharing 🤍 it is so beautiful how God protected you and William our God is glorious, praise Him! We will continue praying for your family. Now I want a third baby too thank God my husband is on board with the idea 😂
I’m currently week 25 + 5 days with twins. And I was diagnosed with vasa previa and velamentous cord insertion at my 20 week anatomy scan for baby A. I’ve been looking for other women who’ve had this since NO ONE i know has ever heard of this. This is my first (and most likely last) pregnancy and I really wanted to have a vaginal birth. It’s something I grieved for a little bit but most important thing is that my babes are healthy, which they are! Thank you for this video and bringing awareness to such a rare condition. I feel seen. ♥️
Also, thank GOD that baby flipped so they were able to diagnose this when they did. Seriously, so amazing.
I don't have any babies but my heart ached so badly to hear your pain. I'm so glad your both ok
This had me bawling! Praise God and congrats! I had 2 ceasers and was put to sleep for both so I missed seeing my first two babies after they were born but praise God I was able to stay awake through my third ceaser and for my first girl and that first cry was the best noise in the world. 😭😭😭🥰🥰🥰 So thankful to God and that surgical team was a gift!
Laying here 19+4 weeks pregnant crying. An absolute testimony. Congratulations to you all xxx
Such an incredible story of the work of the Lord in your pregnancy, He is truly a Father that shall go before us, and make a way. I’m so happy that you and William are doing well. Much love and God bless your beautiful family ❤️
Hi Delilah, I was diagnosed with the exact same thing at 20 weeks. I gave birth via C-section on the 2th of April 2021. She was 1 month early. She is doing great and is a nice plumb baby. My C-section I found traumatic. I love your channel!
I am getting a follow up scan in a couple of weeks as they found my placenta was low lying and there were blood vessels over my cervix which means they suspect Vasa Previa. It's been encouraging watching videos like this seeing little babies thriving. Fingers crossed for good results.
Ahh!! God is so good! What a beautiful testimony. I welled up with tears after you said “when I saw him I knew him”. So beautiful. Thank you for sharing this precious story with us.
Glad you and William are fine! And I can totally relate to the fuzziness.
I had to have an emergency c-section, with full anesthesia, which is so confusing from start to finish.
I know that some people struggle with c-sections because of this and I am very grateful that our experience wasn't like that.
The NICU must be so much harder.

Omg I cried through out this whole video. Thank you for sharing you’re story, and that you and William are here happy and safe. He’s so beautiful🤍
Ugh, totally tearing up with you. I’m pregnant with my second, and I can’t imagine going through what you went through. It must have been sooo difficult, but I’m so thankful that everything is now ok, and you are all healthy. But I pray that this difficult experience will also be somehow redeemed for you, and that you’ll have healing from all of the trauma.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience here and yes, you made me cry too. ❤
At the morphology of the 1st trimester, I had been diagnosed with velamentous insertion and after the discussion with the doctor, I decided to have a c-section for this reason. But today, at the morphology of the 2nd trimester, at 20 weeks of pregnancy, I was also diagnosed with vesa praevia , something I was afraid of since I found out that I had velametosa insertion. Although I read that there are very rare cases in which the diagnosis can be changed and the vessels are no longer in this position, I still hope that it will be changed by the end of the second trimester. In any case, if the diagnosis is maintained, the fact that you told what you went through, helps me to look a little more positively towards the future and I hope that everything will be fine in my case as well.
