    After seeing quite a few comments saying she should've told her boyfriend earlier, I must say I'm shocked at how judgemental you all are. She couldn't just say "hey I'm in labor". She had to say "hey I just found out I'm pregnant, I'm actually 40 weeks pregnant, and I'm actually having the baby right now." Proper communication is impossible when you're in labor without medication. It is painful and traumatic for anyone, LET ALONE someone dealing with the trauma of finding out you're pregnant and pushing the baby out in the same moment. Her only obligation was to focus on having her baby. After she had her, she was exhausted, recovering, accepting the shocking news, and had crazy hormones. It was absolutely her right to take as much time as she needed before telling anyone anything about it, even her boyfriend and/or the baby's father. All a new mother needs to do is rest and be with baby

      While I agree with the effects of medication, exhaustion etc,I do think he deserved to know right away,he most likely would have wanted to be there especially that their daughter was so sick..her parents could have called him and called his parents also.its something he's missed out on through no fault of his own.

      @@Jac-Jay maybe in an ideal /perfect world but this situation sounds like it was just a whirlwind of surprises and uncertainty and the more people in the room she'shaving to communicate with while having had no preparation for what was going on, the harder it all would probably have been. Plus maybe he would have gotten really stressed out and maybe his reaction would have brought more stress for her. In such a surprising situation, she did an excellent job managing it all. I do see your point, though.

    It’s remarkable how differently pregnancy effects people. It’s clear that you have so many people who you are close with and they were all with you right up until the birth and none of them could tell and were shocked. I am so happy you had such a large support system. Most people have months to prepare and tell folks, you handled the entire situation so maturely. Your little girl is so lucky to have such a strong momma!

    I became a Mom unexpectedly in College also. I commend you and your family for the way you all handled it. It's impossibly hard to understand the range of emotions you feel when this happens to you. I did know I was pregnant, and was upfront w my friends, family, and his Father, BUT I did not get the support you recieved. Most of my family did not support me, I was told I would be fat and ugly after I had this baby and no man would ever want me. My Mom tried to force me to have an abortion even later into the pregnancy. The Father of the child began seeing someone else and never wanted him, which he has since told my Son. I moved in with my Dad and his wife shortly after giving birth bc of the day situation w my Mom. My Dad was one of few people excited. I lost a lot of college friends who just ghosted me. My siblings were nice but never came to meet him... Writing this I feel like it sounds like I came from a trashy background. But thats not the case actually. We are an upper middle class family. My Mom is a lawyer, My father was a Director for over 30 years of a foundation. We are regular white middle class people. That didn't stop the hate towards me. At the time I felt I deserved it for becoming pregnant. I recently turned 40, my son is now 17. I lived with shame and feeling less than for years because of my choice to have him outside of marriage. Despite all of this he has always been the best thing to ever happen to me. We are very close. I love him completely and endlessly. I would never change it even if I could and I used to feel guilty for that too. Like I did something bad to other people for chosing life. Still, I see now it wasn't right what happened to me. I am do happy your experience was filled with love and support. P s. My Mom eventually came around and even apologized after spending some time w Ayden. She thanked me for not listening to her. So I have had close family support in the end. But the words of those who said those things to me... I believed them for years. I felt like such a loser. Anyway, I'm thrilled its different for you. I wish it was this way for all young women who give birth. Its a baby, not a virus

      OMG! I am so sorry that you were treated so poorly. When I became pregnant with my third child, I was told I was nothing but a baby-maker by my own family members...and I was married. It's a shame that women are subjected to ridicule over producing new life. Btw, my 3 kids are now great parents. Your son will be too. And you'll be so proud. :)

      The fear of this exact same thing happening to me is why I chose to terminate my pregnancy when I was 19. I regret that now. I wish I had been brave enough to keep it, despite all the social stigma I no doubt would have felt.

  • @9384cows
    @9384cows Před rokem +157

    I am so, so happy that you have so much love and support from your family and friends. When I got pregnant and had my daughter 50 years ago things were so much different. It was a very difficult time for me and I had very little support and love from my family, especially my mother. She held it against me until her death 2 years ago. People were very mean. I was pressured to give up my daughter for adoption which I refused to do. (I was 20) It took me over a year just to find a job to support us and I was advised by a head hunter to say that my husband died in Vietnam instead of the truth. My "fiance" left us before she was born and I later found out he was seeing 4 other girls. ( We were High School Sweethearts. I thought) (After 25 years of having nothing to do with my daughter she connected with him and they have a relationship now.) I was treated like I had some horrible disease or committed a crime. It was very hard. But I held my head high and I raised my daughter and she is now almost 52. I kept most of the awful things people said about us away from her because I never, ever wanted her to feel unwanted and unloved. I wish you the very best. And please tell your parents Thank You.

      @Joy Plyler and Co
      I'm so sorry your sister was treated so badly. I was beat too but by my mother. She told me that I "ruined" her life and treated me like I had committed murder for the next 50 years. She did some pretty awful things to me and always said very hurtful things to me always out of earshot of others. She was a very cruel, nasty, mean woman. Just because I had a baby. Funny thing, 3 of my siblings also had babies out of wedlock and she didn't treat them as horrible. When she died I mourned the mother I should have had. She made my life very difficult by telling lies about me and even deliberately told my daughter lies to cause trouble. But she went to church every Sunday pretending to be a Good Christian. Not even close!
      I really hope your father apologized to your sister and supported her when she had her baby and loved his precious granddaughter.

    Congratulations on the sweet and beautiful baby 💕💕
    It’s crazy to me that you couldn’t stay in the NICU with your daughter. I work as a nurse in the NICU at a hospital in Denmark, and we have family rooms so you can be with your child all the time that they are there. It really helps with bonding. I think it should be like that all over the world ❤

    Your presentation of your story is so well done. It is calm, mature, well thought out. You seem to have a lot of innate wisdom. So happy for your daughter that she has such a special mom and dad! And so happy for you that your biggest fears did not come true. You said you are living at home. Did you have to leave school or are you taking courses remotely? How does this change your goals for your life? How did your boyfriend's parents take the news? So glad you realized that your unexpected child is really a blessing. God bless!

      Her professors agreed she could do that semester online. she went back to college full time in the fall with her daughter. Her roommates supported der well on that. Her boyfriend was attending a nearby college, but he spent a lot of time with her and the baby on weekends.

    You are well named, Harmony. You have such a great family, and Nathan is just totally wonderful!
    It was so different years ago! I was married for 2 years before my first pregnancy, and I loved every day of it.
    Enjoy your baby, enjoy Nathan and his relationship with her. Allow him his ideas. My mother and I were letting my baby boy by to see if he then sent to sleep. We were pleased that it happened so quickly, until.I found my husband in the living room in the rocking chair rocking the baby. All he said was, "He's my baby and he was crying." I was ready to cry with the emotion that he took hold so quickly. Beautiful!

    Q: Only if you feel like sharing, obviously! How was the inital adjustment from college kid to new mom for you? Having such an insane thing happen must've triggered a lot of complex emotions, and it seems that it'd be really difficult to accept at first! You seem like you are handling it super well!

    Amazing story! Glad you’re doing a q and a….I totally have questions: When you look back do you remember times when you may have been feeling baby kick or move but just didn’t know it? Have you begun to have a normal cycle? Is your boyfriend the baby’s father? How did the baby’s father’s family react when they found out? Are you finishing school on campus?

      @lakyamonee Před rokem +30

      @@tylersmart697 I don’t think it’s that obvious from the video. Simply because I had the same question. I think you are assuming that he’s the dad. She never said that & never said anything about his family.

    • @missakialexandria
      @missakialexandria Před rokem +7

      I'm assuming he's not the dad. I think if he was the dad, she would've called / texted much sooner. And she would probably say something about how she looks like him. Or asked him about the name before she picked it. I bet she was no longer dating the dad and had found someone new by the time she gave birth.

    questions: How was your schooling affected after having your baby? You said looking back there might have been some symptoms you missed because you didn't think you could be pregnant, what were they? What were the reactions of your boyfriend's parents? Are they involved at all in the baby's life? Thank you for sharing so much and being so vulnerable!

    I was 19 when I had my daughter. She did the same thing as your daughter did with the 1st poop. I had to have csection cause she was 10 pounds, but she is 18 a senior in high school. She is as healthy as she can be ❤️ it’s hard work but it’s the most rewarding too

    Wow you seem so calm and like.... serene and whole?? Does that sound weird? Seems like you're natural parents and I'm so happy for you! Love the name Graycen. I'm a 32 year old mother of 3 and in awe of you! Wild that you have to name the baby before you leave the hospital, we have 6 weeks here (UK) and my latest baby had 8 as there were no registering appointments before 8 weeks!
