Birth Vlog ✨ 24 Hour Time Stamp • 4th Baby. 2 Hr & 24 Min Active Labor. 🤰🏼This was my first time at a birthing center and I LOVED it. Everything went so beautifully. I had the SWEETEST midwife and birthing assistant on call that day. Seriously. It was so kind of the Lord. I played labor worship music the entire time from someone’s playlist on Spotify. I squeezed my birthing comb like no other the entire time. I tried to keep a soft face. I entered in to true MOTHER BIRTH MODE. I focused on my breathing. I called on the Lord in my heart and spirit. I leaned into my honey who was so present, kind, and sweet to me the whole way through. He was in it with me. We danced like we were at prom; my head resting on his shoulder. He held me while the Lord carried me through. The room was quiet, it was peaceful.

You’ll see a glimpse of how KIND my midwife, birthing assistant, the Lord, and my honey was to me this birth experience. I was so blessed by them. I felt fearful and worried in the weeks leading up to my sweet babies birth. And, this was a reminder, like hello... Rachel... I will never leave you nor forsake you; I’m in this with you. 🩵

Highly recommend this labor comb ➡️ https://amzn.to/46olNcd

labor of love 🫶🏼🎓 I had the honor of walking across the stage to receive my AA degree in English exactly one week after having my 4th baby. I didn’t sleep at all (literally) the night before and I woke up thinking I should just not go. I’m so glad I went! 

I wanted my dad and my mom to see me walk across the stage.

I wanted to walk for my kids.

I wanted to walk for me. 

This may be a small achievement for some; but for me personally, as a teen mom, a young girl who struggled with a wild heart, and now, a 31 year old busy helicopter mom who wants to succeed for herself and her family… THIS is worth celebrating. 

I didn’t think I would be sitting here. I thought my hopes and dreams were timed out. Welp, that wasn’t true. We are all on our own timeline in this life. We aren’t behind. We are on God’s time. 

I am so excited for the seasons and adventures ahead. On to my BA and teaching degree! I start in fall 🤎 it’s game time! 

My dad and my mom’s comments made me teary. To know they were waiting and watching eagerly for my name to be called.

Easton Arlow Lee Campbell 🫶🏼 Born on 5/9/2026 at 4:47pm 🤍 It was the most beautiful, peaceful, heaven-led, and hard experience in one. What a SPECIAL moment in time. Easton’s middle name honors my dad, Marlowe, and Lee honors Elijah’s families middle name that has been passed down. 🥹

To work through each contraction that led up to getting to a 10 was incredible. Elijah was absolutely wonderful to me the entire labor. We had the most wonderful midwife and birthing assistant. I had worship on the entire time and to hear her humming the song brought me comfort. I was spoken to kindly, uplifted, and supported. 

We got to the birth center to walk outside at 11:30am in case I progressed fast. We walked 2.5 miles enjoying the squirrels, birds, and sunshine. Oh, we enjoyed a quick froyo. Officially entered into the birth center at 1:20pm and he was here just a couple hours later. I wanted to know where I was at when we got there and I was at 5cm 80% effaced. Halfway there. As the labor progressed, I had to really lean into softness and breathing; remembering to not fight against the pain but to use the pain. I used a labor comb to squeeze and it helped immensely! I got up to a 10 and stillness took over; I was thinking did the contractions stop? I enjoyed the peaceful pause before entering into realm I did not want to go, lol. To push him out required primal yelling and bearing down. My water broke. I just wanted God in the room and wow was He the whole time. Leading up to the birth, I was nervous. I wanted to have the baby at the birth center, but I didn’t want to make the wrong choice if I was supposed to be at the hospital. We went by faith instead of my fear and I am so proud of myself for choosing blind faith. Everything was perfectly orchestrated for us. We were home by 8:30pm and everyone was so excited to meet their new baby brother. 

As I watch the videos, I am grateful for the kindness that was showered upon me, the presence of the Holy Spirit that empowered me, and for the ability to bring life into this world. 

Elijah, I love you. Thank you for caring for me, loving me, and being the best daddy.
