This is wholesome. A bunch of toddlers happily watching you give birth without disgust or fear. I'm sure they will all be amazing and supportive people in the future🥺
I love how their brain is not conditioned to perceive birth as "eeewww"
The way scout kept giving you hugs and kisses throughout your labour really has my heart
shes my best little girl friend thats for sure! love them all so much
@@EllenFisher She surely is, I wish you and your family a happy life
Congratulations 🎉 May God always 💕 bless your 💞 family health wealth and safety 🤞 good luck . Now Father should stop thinking to go for the next birth and taking or giving you more responsibilities . It's enough
I'm in tears! So much love in that child. Clearly raised beautifully!

The pain face turned INSTANT smile as the baby was born is all I needed to know that I can do this in February. I can do this.
You can do it! I’m also due in February and in tears watching this right niw
@@lilyandrews3239 Congratulations!! We got this
You both got this!! I just gave birth in September & that was the same facial reaction I had as well 🥲🥹
Congratulations guys, take every moment in 💞
You can do this!!!
Warm water is so soothing!
As a student midwife, seeing this video made me so emotional. Every day I see and hear of women not being given enough choices on how they want to welcome their newborns into the world. Some don't even get to choose which position to birth in. They lay on their back, in pain, with their adrenaline through the roof making it 10x worst for them. Some leave with traumas and scars for life and it pains me to see that. As a student, there is only so much I can do to support those women. Seeing you give birth in the most beautiful and heartwarming way is so inspiring to me. This is what I would like for my women to feel like. I want to teach them that birth is not something to be feared but to be welcomed instead. Labor, if approached correctly can feel joyful, orgasmic, and blissful. I will definitely be signing up to your course to learn more about your approach. it is so inspiring!
I'm glad you showed this because I've seen women giving birth where they had their legs stretched wide apart their knees are up to their chin and it just looks so horrific me I thought there must be a better more natural way of doing that
The medical system for birth is built the wrong way. Instead of supporting women during pregnancy and birth (and postpartum), women are put into uncomfortable positions and choices and told that's the way it has to be done. Informed consent is thrown out the window and the number of women having traumatic births is so high! My first was a beautiful homebirth after watching Ellen and others for so long and really educating myself on what is best for me and what's in the interest of the medical system. I'm pregnant now with my second and having another homebirth. It's the best way ❤️
J'ai pleuré en voyant la vidéo . J'ai effectivement été traumatisé par mon accouchement ☹ J'ai mal de savoir que je ne pourrais jamais vivre ce qu'elle a vécu. Je remercie qu'il y ai des gens comme vous dans le monde qui accompagnerons des mamans avec toute leur bienveillance 🙏
@@ilovejulie89 Also pregnancy, how childbirth occur , miscarriage, Post natal care are not openluly talked in society but related rumors n myths are talked instead
Le tue parole stupende q
Your daughter, Scout, is such a empathetic and compassionate little girl. So thoughtful and caring.
Indeed! Every moment of this family is full of love, support and tenderness! ❤
Ezt azért nem kellene a gyerekeknek látni.
"Gentle" and "easy" were words I never associated with birth until I found your channel. It is comforting to see that birth doesn't have to be an everlasting trauma.
So glad you can find wonderful women like ellen who can help you feel and understand how beautiful birth is.
Most of the time mindset plays a key part and most women forget to have an open mind to birth and how we can change our atmosphere to our liking either it’s before or during or after the birth in any situation. 🥰🙌🏻
Please trust this, listen to her, as a midwife I promise this is the way. I’m also a vegan mama of 5, we are fully cable off this work.
Yo pensé exactamente lo mismo, una esta acostumbrada a ver solo tormento. 👌
My first birth was also traumatic but after Releasing my fears through the tapping method, via Ellen’s channel, and reading a book called supernatural child birth, I had a pain free home birth🎉
My next child I plan to get her birth course and video my birth. This really works!❤
I had a pain free third birth - a scheduled C-section! It was amazing. 🙂
And that's how you normalise birth. Your kids will not be worried to either give birth one day or become a father. As a midwife this makes me incredibly happy. Sending lots of love
*****czcams.com/video/xx33Ik-AOe8/video.html🥰***
@@jaderobson-glyde555 yeah it's been done billions of times
Well, there you have it....all hospital births cause multi-generational PTSD. If we don't fix this....Margaret Atwood's best selling novel could become a reality.🙄🙄
I mean, I feel like I did my 2 year old a favor not having her at my birth. My baby was OP and there was a lot of screaming. Still a normal birth, mind you. But my girl would have been terrified lol
As "a midwife" I expect you to understand that there are numerous birth scenarios that REQUIRE medical intervention to result in a LIVING mother AND baby. ALL are quality births. A hundred years ago women like me would have died trying to have "a normal birth". Thank GOD for C-sections.
Omg the moment after you tell Scout she has a sister and she cradled your face, what a little LOVE! Made me cry. Congratulations everyone
I'M BALLING!!! 😭😭😭 What a precious moment!! 💖
Sobbing at that moment❤️
😭😭😭😭😭😍😍😍😍
Mee too!!! incredible this feeling!
yes same, crying my eyes out!
I delivered my last daughter myself after an awful hospital experience, doing it at home is such an amazing experience you just can’t believe the difference until you do it. I’m 36 weeks pregnant now and plan to have my baby at home with my husband and daughters, regardless of how many of these videos I see I can’t help but cry every time I watch them- you have a beautiful family ❤
Women and naturally drawn to this. That little girl keeps comforting her mother and she looks just in awe witnessing this. I know the boys are also there but that little girl is just so overly “mothering” her own mom and checking on her. Just adorable. That little woman might be a midwife someday ❤️
I thought the same thing. She'd make great midwife. She was her mother's doula❤️
that's sexist
@@alinagorelova1147that’s biology
@@alinagorelova1147 yeah? So? I believe in the power of women and the awesome special gifts they bring to the table. Men have other gifts. A world in balance with men and women.
@@byersfamily138 It really isn't, honey.
Scout is just such a special girl😭 She made me cry throughout the whole video. Such a compassionate, empathetic, smart little girl. Congrats Mom 💛 You really are such a natural.
that really does describe her. ❤ thanks for the love and support!
me too :')
if people would listen to their bodies instead of doctors their health would be easy
2:40
jjj
The fact Scout was right about the baby being a girl and how comforting she was during the birth, she’s going to be an amazing big sister 💛 congratulations you guys
At first I was like “she’s letting her kids watch?!” Then I saw all of them look in amazement at their new sibling and was wow that was so beautiful. The most beautiful video I have ever seen. Seriously. great job momma. Congrats!
I honestly have never even considered the thought of having my children watch me give birth. But when I watched this video and say how incredibly beautiful it was…I’m seriously reconsidering. One of the most beautiful things I have ever seen
I wish it was more normalized for other children to watch, it's so beautiful and it's natural. great job mama!
it’s beautiful but I would have been so annoyed with so many people surrounding me and touching me 😭
@@helllllloworldthey all seem to be precious kids though. They didn't stress her and the little girl in particular was such a supportive daughter 🥺
What's wrong with letting your kids watch a natural process such as birth?
First of all, that baby girl is taking CARE of her mommy, ok! All those cute hugs and kisses. Shooing any flies away from her mommy's face. She's such a sweetheart 💕
Did you see that?!!! How cute 🥰 girls are so sweet
I never comment and I’m usually a silent viewer, but I just wanna acknowledge how special of a kiddo Scout is. She is absolutely one of the most empathetic and caring children i’ve ever seen. She’s gonna be an amazing big sister and amazing person in general. She’s so precious, Ellen 🥹
Ellen I just wanted to say thank you. Before I found your channel and saw the love in your family, I wanted to be sterilized when I turned 18. I was 15 and looking up ways to talk doctors into it, thinking ‘Why should I bring a child into this world? So many other children need homes, I’d rather adopt. I’d rather die than be pregnant.’
But I found your channel during Scout’s pregnancy and you showed something so different to what I’d always known pregnancy, birth, and having children to be. It wasn’t contractions.. it was waves. It wasn’t pregnancy the state of feeling huge, ‘like a whale’, sickly, it was bringing a new life into the world. It wasn’t a parasite, it was getting to meet your baby at the end of the day. It wasn’t a live or death battle with pain and your own body, it was embracing yourself in its most powerful, ancient state. Giving birth to a new life.
It’s so profound to me now, so sacred and so beautiful.
You’ve changed me Ellen, and I seriously can’t thank you enough. Please continue to teach other women the value of family and that having children is not the bane of existence it is portrayed to be nowadays. That family is worth fighting for and we would be lost without it. ❤
I love how much Ellen loves motherhood. You can tell she really pours her heart and soul into her family . Her energy exudes even through the screen, and it’s why I have watched this channel all these years❤
awe wow thats so kind of you to say 😭
Agree.. ❤
Yes. Me too....
Same ❤
Agree very inspirational ❤️
The fact that she did not know the gender of the baby and held her with so much love from the moment she gave birth to her is just so beautiful❤❤ It feels so much more natural to do it this way
why would she not hold the baby with love if she knew the gender?
@@FruityHachi I think they were just implying that it was so sweet that she didn’t immediately look to see bc in the moment it didn’t matter!
@@mitchellgrace2886 that’s a natural reaction, the mother and the child need to bond immediately, it’s the doctors who are messing with that
and unless the parents specifically want a boy or a girl, the gender doesn’t matter, so getting oxytocin from holding the baby takes precedence
I have had 7 children and the best advice I can give is breathe deeply. When the contraction comes you will feel like holding your breath, but just breathe through it.
I feel like my body gets frozen rigid and I can never take an actual deep breath even though I’ve done natural twice. How do I break through that for my third come
April?
Let's take a moment to appreciate how this turned out to be a family event rather than too private. Im scared but then watching this made me wanna embrace that journey positively.....
Yeah and in olden days or medieval time close family members like mother, sister or a child of that pregnant woman used to be with her to motivated n calm her during delivery
Even In animals in wild, females give birth surrounded by her children (cubs) and other female associates of animal pack, they cheer her, calm her, guide her, and motivate her to go thru labor
ChildBirth is treated as an auspicious event and birth of new life is happy thing for animals except humans, cos humans have far sexualised n put in bad light pure events like even labor n delivery or birth of new baby , and many doctors or nurses today behave abusively with mothers n infants lol and in olden days this abuse was there too, but that's the fact, Pure 'Childbirth' is viewed in a bad sense only by humans, cos they evolved into societies but somewhat wrongly n away from nature
@@chatgpt4135u typed alot
Scout during this whole video has made me well up so much. All the children show love and care towards their lovely mum but there is just something about the way she was constantly checking on Ellen and giving her hugs has really hit me. It’s such a beautiful video. Congratulations to your whole family ❤
It was so amazing to see! If Scout chooses to have children she'll be so lucky to have this experience. Birth is beautiful.
The look on Scout's face when she realized she had a sister is quite possibily the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
Scout knew all along it was a girl. Notice she said "finally" I get to hold you? So seeet 💕
The way she beamed with pride when she said, “This is my first time holding baby standing up,” was just precious.
This empowered me SO much. I’m pregnant with my 3rd child. The first was an epidural, vaginal birth with tearing. The second was an emergency c-section. But the 3rd I’m taking a completely different route with an at home birth and a midwife. I’m so so so motivated and hopeful i can have a natural birth! I LOVED this. Thank you for sharing this. 🥲🥲🥲
Good luck mommy ❤️🤞🏽🥹
I'm going through the same love to hear how it goes i have 48 days left
You got this. It’s will be a beautiful experience! 🙏
I am wishing you the best of luck with your home birth with a midwife!!! As a kid with a doctor mom i think it will always be assumed that I will have my kiddo in a hospital but I think i wanna do it at home with a midwife (who I think are kinda more qualified than most doctors to help with childbirth tbh). You are a superstar!
Did your baby arrive ok? X
My god...she did it all on her own without any help. What a brave, strong and wonderful woman. Congrats.❤️❤️
After the second time you kind of get the hang of it 😅
I’m crying. This was the most beautiful birth video I’ve seen. Scout knew it and her sweet little smile and tears were perfectly precious! So happy for your family.
❤️
Yes most beautiful home birth I’m in tears 😭 t
Baby got blue... feets. 😑
Me too! ❤
Im sitting overhear 2 months pregnant balling my eyes out
I admire this woman so much. I don't have kids, but I absolutely adore how much you are changing the paradigm on giving birth. I just think how lucky your kids are to see an example of such strong, female empowerment! Your little girl won't be afraid to give birth. Congratulations!
Girls* she's got two now!
But it is the fifth birth. That would be abnormal if it were heavy, and it was heavy enough. 🙂👍👍
Right!!!! I just imagine how her boys will be so well equipped knowing how to support and serve their wives/partners if they go through pregnancy and birth too.
@@thetruthwillsetyoufree5567 True but the one that was just born didn't witness the birth, so to speak. Maybe they will have another and she will! :)
@@funnyjcutie I fully expect they will have another.
I’m not sure if it’s my hormones or what but I cried throughout this beautiful movie. It solidifies my decision of doing a home birth & brings me comfort that it’s possible to have a peaceful birthing experience.
I’m 5 1/2 months pregnant with my first baby and I’m literally sobbing watching after you gave birth to her. Your kids are so sweet and got me really crying over here lol I’m so excited to meet my daughter. Your a great mama
Желаю вам благополучных и легких родов!!!🇷🇺
I swear she came out smiling. And what a wonderful support Scout was during the birth 🥰🥰🥰
she truly is amazing. thanks for the love!
Yeap I catched that too. 😍
This was truly so beautiful Ellen. I cried with you guys when you realized it was a girl. Oh my gosh. Thank you for sharing such a special, intimate moment with us. She is absolutely perfect. You did such a good job mama. 💗🥺
it was the best moment! I was so happy for Scout!
I just had a conversation with my husband two days ago saying I missed my labor and delivery experience and couldn’t wait to do it again. This type of birth is exactly why. We’ve always wanted 5 kids. I’m 10 days shy of 6months postpartum with our second child. My labor and delivery was so quick and AMAZING! I’ve been watching you since I was a teenager. I’m now 26years old. You’ve inspired me to study and prepare for labor and delivery initially in order to become a nurse midwife and doula. But this time it paid off for my own birth. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us and changing the way we view birth. I can’t wait to experience this again.
Getting to know that birthing is “gentle” and “feels good” is so relieving to know as a girl just relieves me and just tells me that I shouldn’t be worried about it
This was so powerful 😍 it made me realize the power of raising little girls, I have 3, and it always seems people focus on the fact that we haven’t had a boy yet. Just look at Scout and how she cared for you, even at such a young age. Women are so powerful, so amazing and have such a strong role that I see it more everyday. The moment Scout realized it was a girl, so beautiful, I bawled.
Ellen was born to be a mom. I love how Andrew so openly shows his love of Ellen. Thanks for sharing
Yeah, ikr:') I truly hope I'll have a hubby like Andrew and be mum just like Ellen. Also, I'll have beautiful kids like them 5. Astungkara, svaha.
Giving birth in this environment looks so relaxing compared to a sterile hospital!!
Hh
Wow, the way your daughter kept comforting you was the most beautiful feminine and masculine balanced force I have ever felt and seen for support.... That truly touched my heart
Boy or gril
The way Scout tended to you during labour was beautiful 💞
I think you know how much a family means to you when you watch Ellen share her pregnancy and birth. I cried when scout found out she had a little sister! So happy for you, I’ve been watching since Elvis was a little boy and I’m so happy to watch your family grow. Congratulations 🎉🎈💘
wow thank you for the long time love and support. it truly means so much to me!
This is the most beautiful birthing experience I've ever had the honor of witnessing. The family all around, loving on mom. The deep love between mom and dad being expressed. The little girl showing her love and support to mom. The purest love pouring out from everyone. The children holding their new sister. I will forever remember and cherish this amazing moment. Thank you!
Scout is such a nurturer and going to be an awesome big sis.
Done like a goddess! This is the real promise of giving birth, right here. Not the fear porn women are fed. Even when birthing is VERY hard (can anyone relate!?) we women have the opportunity to feel like, and literally be, superwomen. THANK YOU Ellen for yet again being vulnerable to show us the beauty of these moments!
Porn women?
Oh my God, i'm crying my eyes out! That’s just it, that's the magic that you can't get in a c-section (i had two). Watching this video i can't stop looking at your kids and thinking that when they grow up they will truly want to be parents and live the same experience! You're incredible mama!!!
I never knew home births would be as gentle and calm as this , this is beautiful , I’m seven weeks pregnant now and I couldn’t be happier watching this bcuz I was super worried. Bless your family ! Congratulations!
Well, is the baby born 😅
@@marshmallow7640 yes I’m bow blessed with a very healthy two month old baby boy!
Waa it home birth ?
Omg scout was so gentle and caring hugging and kissing you over and over too cute.
I love how when you were checking what the babe was she was telling herself “it’s a girl, it’s a girl”
Congratulations 🎉
7:52 “it a GIRL” - I burst out crying with happiness! What a beautiful family 🥰❤
The "are you sure" right afterwards 😂😂
@@ekornz.z Awh I know!!! So sweet isn’t it 🥰 they’re all in disbelief they’ve been blessed with such a beautiful girl! So nice seeing a family all so excited and so welcoming for a new baby 🥰
@@sdiponioXx yes, absolutely. Big congrats to them 🥰🥰
The most beautiful parts of this video was watching Scout hug, kiss and really care for you throughout and when she found out she had a baby sister her reaction was so moving it brought me to tears, that little girl will be a wonderful big sister who will be an amazing roll model along with the boys but seeing Scout throughout this whole video was pure “LOVE”. Congratulations Fisher family
YOUR DAUGHTER THAT WAS HUGGING AND KISSING AND COMFORTING YOU IS SUCH A BLESSED GIFT
I cried happy tears watching this. I am currently 36 weeks with my first baby and cannot wait to meet her. This gave me an encouragement to believe in natural birth.
I’ve never seen a baby look this comfortable in their environment, this baby knows so much love. I’m not going to let give me baby fever bye 😭
I love that your little kids are so confident holding a newborn, and I can only imagine that comes from parents who are so fully trusting and supportive. I don't know that I've seen someone allow their 4-5 year old carry an infant around, and I love that you trust yours to do so safely. I can't wait to see who Scout grows into.. you can already see her innate desire to be a caretaker
In a culture of fear of birth, I love that you are teaching your daughters (and sons) that it isn’t something to be afraid of
I'm not crying I promise 😭😭😭 Your first daughter! Oh my God,she's such a precious soul. The Lord bless her heart❤️
I lied! I'm crying...I'm watching a beautiful birth video by 5:57 in the morning and crying,just great!😭
I hope one day I can mother my children the way you have yours. I’m 23 and a primary teacher and I’ve watched you since I was 16. I’ve watched your children grow and have been in awe at what kind beautiful souls they have become. They are children that will benefit this planet and make it a better world to live in when they grow up. I can only hope that one day I can parent in a way that makes my children as thoughtful, gentle and loving and genuinely lovely little humans as yours. You and Andrew should be extremely proud not only of them but yourselves.
I’m 21 and have watched Ellen for years too. I feel the same! She is such a beautiful witness to motherhood and the true goodness of family.
I feel the same way! We’re still a couple years out from having kids, but I can’t wait to soak up all the pregnancy + birth + parenting knowledge here when the time comes!
Congratulations, Ellen! Scout will now be able to have that special kind of sister relationship you have with your sister! So beautiful! 💖
yesss!! 😭
The way your daughter is so supportive is the cutest thing
New viewer, watching your girl grab your head and hug you in the beginning of the tub birth had me SOBBING. That's why we do it, folks. That love is peak motherhood right there.
I love how your midwife is off to the side allowing your family to have your sweet moment
You were made for birthing! Look how perfect your belly skin is. So happy for you Mama.
The way Scout is so lovingly attentive to you throughout plus the suprise and joy when she learns she’s a big sister! It’s soooooo touching and I’m literally crying! Congrats to you all!!!! Thank you for sharing ❤
After a first and only traumatic c section, I learned hypnobirthing and went on to have 4 respected VBACs in the hospital with no interventions at all. The hospital had a special birthing room with a tub and the doctor was fully into respected birth, so I felt safe and comfortable. Sadly and gladly the last time was not so great because the hospital started losing focus on mothers and it was suddenly all about the money or their convenience. I had to labor among people telling us to pay right then and there and making us sign papers. I couldn't sign anything, I fully dilated and called for the doctor. When my doctor entered the room he yelled at them to get out or start helping. In my heart I knew hospitals had nothing to offer to me anymore, my husband was acting like a caged animal and asking to be discharged all the time. We wanted to be out of there so badly. So now we are going for our first homebirth, I feel confident and very excited, my heart and body are ready, I have learned to birth easily. I'll let you know how it goes.
I'm in tears and so happy that you're showing this to the world.
I freebirthed both my babies, and it is a desicion that I am grateful to have made every single day.
I grieve deeply for the women who get pushed into unnatural and traumatic birth situations.. it's incredibly unfair, and I just wish for all women to remember how natural this is, and that it is HER power, to reclaim and to ride out on her terms. It bring me peace to see someone so wise and experienced to be guiding others through this sacred passage of bringing the next generations earthside. ♥︎
I have watched everyone of your birth videos. You empower me and make me so grateful and excited to birth one day. Truly an icon to women!!!!!!!!
woww that makes me wanna cry!! I love helping other women feel confident and excited going into birth. thanks for the love
I've got chills. 🥰 My last baby (#5) was a waterbirth, and I loved it. But oh, waterbirth or not, that feeling when baby is born! Every time I see a birth video I remember SO vividly how it felt after each baby was born - a relief and joy and rush of peace that is indescribable. Congratulations!! Babies are such a gift. I am so glad more and more people are spreading the truth that childbirth is beautiful, safe, natural and not to be feared. ❤
Scout comforting Mommy with hugs and kisses. She is precious!! What a beautiful video. The moment they found out it was a girl, the joy on Scout's face was so so precious!!
Omg🥺 Scout constantly hugging you and kissing you 100% broke me. I’m a crying mess now lol. She is so loving and nurturing. Just like her mama. Congratulations to you all on your little girl.
Hi mama's out there who, like me, had births that weren't like this one. Please know you also did an incredible incredible job
The most important part is that you get your baby safe and sound, and sometimes home births can risk that. There is no OR down the hall, or a blood bank etc. Home birth is a personal choice, but you are taking a risk.
@@bettysmith4527 Many times, hospitals and their protocols are far more dangerous than home birth. They are necessary sometimes, but that is a very, very small percentage. Homebirth is statistically less risky than hospital birth. Watch "The Business of Being Born." It will start to show you the truth.
@@hanab837 ok, just watch some videos about home births gone wrong, especially the ones that have resulted in the death of the baby secondary to shoulder dystocia and other issues!
@@bettysmith4527 babies die in hospital too. Birth is a risk period. This is why having an educated midwife there is important.
My first was 10lb 4oz baby at home. Big head as well! 9.5 hours of pushing and 2 episiotomies later and he came. Yes, it was painful but totally worth it. I had a hospital birth with my second. It was very traumatic because of the way me and my baby was treated. Wish I could go back and have her at home. Moral is, you are right. w
We do what we can and I'm thankful for all the healthy babies born!
I just had my second baby 4 months ago, after going through a traumatic birth I found your channel and remembered EVERYTHING you said to yourself and it really helped me with my own birth. CONGRATS! 🎉
Oh my goodness I just balled throughout the whole birth video. To see Scout and your kiddos hug and kiss you throughout and to see Scout cry with joy when she heard she had a sister-what a beautiful moment
I don't have any children yet but I've always thought that if I am ever blessed enough to have children I couldn't wait the whole nine months to find out if it's a boy or a girl. As soon as I know it's possible to find out, I'm just so impatient that I don't think I could wait any longer. But seeing your reactions in the moment that you found out that it was a girl honestly might have completely changed my mind now.
I waited each time I gave birth and it was so worth it.
I waited all three times and was glad I did. You only get a small handful of surprises in life and this is the best! People do these reveal parties now, its a trend I guess.
I think it helps when going through the birth to not know the gender, it keeps you going because you want to know what the baby is going to be and then you get the joy when you find out what it is when it's born.
I hate when people find out before, it takes away the surprise.
The only time I think it's better to know is if you have say 2 boys and are wanting a girl, then it's probably best to know before the birth so you don't feel dissapointed when the baby comes if it is another boy. It gives you time to adjust and realise you are never going to have a daughter so by the time the baby arrives you are over it and welcome your 3rd son or vice versa.
I mean most people have that big of a reaction when finding out during pregnancy. It’s just a personal preference thing.
i felt like i was sitting there next to you guys the whole time.. that was the most incredible birth video ive ever watched. how peaceful and seamless it all went blew me away. the song choice made me cry so hard too.. wow.. thanks ellen for sharing your experience with us
For everyone watching this, homebirth is the best option you have if you have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. I have 4 children, all born breech. One cesarean and 3 home breech VBACs and it had been the most amazing experience of my life.
This is seriously one of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen. From Ellen's aura to Scout's care and the love of their entire little tribe. I'm in pieces, how beautiful!
The way I immediately started sobbing the moment Dagny was born. 😭 So happy for all of you. ❤
Her daughter is so empathetic.. it’s so lovely to see
I love how empathetic your little girl is. She is going to grow up strong like her mama.
Gosh this was beautiful! Scout helping her mom with kisses and hugs. The boys seeing first-hand how incredible their mother is. The bonding. Beautiful family. Good job Ellen!
Never have I ever been able to watch one of Ellen's birth vlogs without ending up with teary eyes, a full heart and a smile on my face. Thank you so much for sharing your life with us, Ellen. You are amazing.
This brought me to tears 😢please young woman, do not be lead by fear, you too can do this! After three traumatic hospital births I stopped my family sooner than I wanted to. This is how birth is meant to be! God Bless your family ❤
@@karmiefen3464 Pray for your husband to have a change of heart, or to find a doctor that will be very low-intervention + support your desires/respect you in a hospital setting ✨ I hear of some women that keep having their babies at a hospital just because they found a doctor that respects them so! 💛
I've watched many home births. Yours was so amazing. Your whole family was watching with wonder and love. Your husband is so sensitive to your needs, he really is in tune with you. I love the way the kids share your joy in her birth. Scout was so precious when she realized she will be a big sister. Blessings of love to you all.
What a peaceful and beautiful labor. I’m the youngest of 5 and the only girl so this really got me in my feelings. So sweet seeing the kids love on their new baby sister! I’ve been watching your videos since Sandy was a baby, it’s just so incredible how fast the time goes by and how much changes. Congratulations on your beautiful baby♥️
The way you can also physically see the belly drop lower and lower, the body contracting… the change in breath… You are such a goddess Ellen! Thank you for sharing this magic with us ✨♥️✨
Scout is such a loving girl😭🥹❤️ all of your children are so caring and so incredibly sweet! You guys are amazing parents!❤️
So beautiful!! And the way Scout cuddled and kissed you, as if saying "Thank you for a baby sister" 💖Absolutely precious!! What a beautiful family!! May you all be BLESSED always ✨
The happiness in Scout's eyes especially, was the strongest moment, it made me cry. It was so nice to be able to see this happy moment with the baby's coming. Thanks for sharing it with us!!!! ❤
Your kids are going to be the best parents one day. The love they show to each other is just 😭❤️
Beautiful. God's greatest creation at work. Motherhood is so beautiful. Those scenes of the children and husband making physical connections to her throughout the labor process are just beautiful. Pure love. God bless our wonderful mothers
This. was. phenomenal. And your daughter made me cry. Watching her continue to come kiss your head and hug you was indescribable. Thank you for sharing this sacred experience with us!!
Ellen, every time you upload I think to myself that this time it’s the most raw, beautiful video of memories I’ve ever seen. but you outdo yourself every time. this one is just untoppable though. pure, honest and so special. thank you for sharing these moments of your life with us ❤ congrats on your newest family member! welcome to the world :)
we thank you for being here and for your encouragement and love!
Oh, your oldest son is definitely going to be delivering babies for a living! His so emotionally invested, it’s the sweetest thing ever. His hugs and kisses in every video definitely warms my heart 💕💕Also, mami you made it look easy😍😍 you are mighty amazing!
This is so powerful. Birth has sooooo much fear around it for so many women. Im not a mom nor a I expecting, but I want children in the next few years. This video made me...excited for labour. When the time comes, I will definitely be taking this course. THANK YOU for doing this and sharing your knowledge and invaluable experience
Tears in my eyes when you told Scout she has a baby sister. Sooo beautiful Ellen. I have watched your videos for YEARS and continue to be inspired by your way of living and motherhood. I had my first baby almost 6 months ago naturally at a free standing birth center and I am so so thankful. ❤️
Praise the Lord for this beautiful healthy little girl. I am so happy for you guys. You did such a good job Ellen! As a mama myself this video brought me to tears of joy. The first time we get to see and hold our new born baby is just irreplaceable. I wish you a fast and easy recovery.
This family is the real definition of the word one love
“You have a sister” 😭 the feels.
I’ve never had the good fortune to become pregnant or give birth, despite many years of fertility treatment. I watched all your birth stories and I’m so happy for all of you, particularly Scout having the little sister she so wanted. I’m an only girl with brothers and I so wanted a sister but that wasn’t to be. Thank you for sharing such a beautiful experience 💚
Your videos completely empowered me. I watched this one almost every night towards the end of my pregnancy and when I finally went into labour I ended up having a water birth, no pain relief, music in my ears as I was contracting and breathing and I did it!!! It was the most amazing birth! Thank you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
This woman is just an amazing mum , I'm in awe. God bless this wonderful family ❤
This video is so beautiful, and brought tears of joy to my eyes Ellen. Scout’s reaction when she learned she had a baby sister was priceless. I look forward to purchasing your birth course.
I pretty much spent the entire time balling! What a wonderful experience you all got to share. A vivid recollection is the expression on Scout's face when she learned she had a sister. :) Best wishes to the Fisher family! ❤
By far the absolute best birthing story I’ve ever seen! It truly was magical. And what an amazing family. WOW! Congratulations!
