I'm am sorry for your loss . I lost mine may 2015 at 22 weeks. I really appreciate the vlogging of his birth. I swear it was almost the same exact situation with us ! We went to the hospital thinking we were going to hear the heartbeat , not knowing we were going to deliver our angel the next day. Watching your videos do help :) we now have our rainbow baby and feel blessed ! Keep making your videos! 👍🏻
Mine 2001 I went in to get induced just because he hadn't come and we were all messed up on the date. The happiest day of my life,turned to be the worst :( i still am blessed he was mine for 9 mths.
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt story. I understand your decisions. You obviously loved little Beckett so much. He loves you too. God bless you and your Husband. ❤
I have no words, just sitting here with tears streaming down my face. My heart aches so badly for you and your family. It is not fair what happened to you and your precious boy 💔 I hope you find peace eventually. I'm so sorry
I'm so very happy that you get a second chance. You've been a mother since the second you found out you were pregnant with Beckett, and I know you will be the best mother to this little bug, I wish you and Tyson all the best ❤
I am so sorry that you guys had to go through this tough time. You are so strong and brave for sharing your story. Try to stay strong and know that Beckett is watching over his mama and papa. xoxo
You are an amazingly strong woman. Your son is beautiful. I know it has to be hard to share this story, but I am so glad you did. Albeit sad, Becketts birth story is as beautiful as he is. Thank you all for sharing him with us.
Aimee sweetheart thank you for sharing your birth story. Stillborn is STILL BORN. ❤ You are so strong in how you told your Beckett's birth story. It touched my heart , as you always do. And as always you are so beautiful!! ❤
So proud of you...when you go through your grief....it's a good sign that you can talk about it without breaking down, generally means your processing things and coming out the other side ...you never forget him,but your now healing.....all the best for you and your new Bub.....looking forward to seeing your new little family xx
Beckett is such a special guy! He has touched so many people in this world and changed our hearts too. Thank your being such a wonderful mama to him and thank you for sharing his story.
I just came across your blog when it popped up as a suggestion for me. My heart breaks for you. Even though you have an adorable daughter now, the pain of losing a child is surely unbearable. Bless your family
I know this comment is a bit late, but I just want to thank you for sharing Beckett's birth with us. We lost our baby Eli at 34 weeks and I had to have the balloon too. It is so hard to be in so much pain and to know your baby is not going to live. I won't say I know exactly how you felt, because we all grieve differently, but I am glad that you have shared your experience. Beckett's story deserves to be told.
So very powerful, that feeling you spoke about when you went to the hospital and you "just knew" immediately made my heart ache. That is the worst feeling in the world, knowing without a doubt that you're leaving the hospital without your baby, it's heartbreaking. Thank you so much for sharing Beckett with us, his story has touched so many lives. What a beautiful little soul.
💙💙 Have you heard about CuddleCots? We recently had one donated to my local hospital, and they provide a portable cooling system so that families can keep their precious babies in the room with them for longer, giving them more time to hold them and take pictures, and allowing extended family to meet them. It even allows families to take their baby home. I know you guys are passionate about raising awareness and supporting families, maybe this could be something to consider?
Lauren Mulcahy We didn't hear about this until after. We even found out that our hospital had been donated one earlier that month, but we weren't offered it. (There was another stillbirth the same day, so they might have gotten it). It's something to consider. That's for sure.
I'm not usually the one to comment on a video but your story made me cry I'm so sorry for your loss. it was such an important story for you to tell and you have been such a strong woman through out your whole grief journey. I found your channel through Beckett's birth vlog. I wish I could just hop through the screen and give you a big huge hug and comfort you through your hard times. I hope that your grief journey only keeps getting better.
My heart breaks with yours and I am in tears watching your video. I have followed your story for some time now and I know how much it hurts to go through the loss of a child. I have never made it past 6 weeks but in saying that I have had 5 pregnancy's and 5 losses. All my babies were conceived through IVF. Stay strong lovely you have alot of support behind you.
Beckett.’s story deserves to be told, I can’t even fathom how difficult this was to go through and even to talk about afterward. Thank you for sharing this incredibly personal insight. I watched your birth video bawling my eyes out and hearing you talk about it made me cry all over again. Love to your family.
WatersWife Vlogs what a beautiful picture thank you for sharing your son with us take one day at a time it's been a year for my grandson William i will never get over it and it took him 3 days to be born xxxxxxx💖
I told myself I wasn't going to cry and here I am sitting in class crying dang it!! It is such a beautiful story and please keep sharing it. We love you and support y'all for a reason. 💕
Just found you. I lost a little boy (who we named Shiloh) at 17 weeks on March 15 2014. Hard to believe it's been 4 years, sometimes it feels like yesterday. Thank you for sharing your story and making PAIL more heard about. ❤️❤️❤️
I went through almost an identical labor may of 2017 at 25 weeks. It was so hard yet beautiful. I'm now currently 30 weeks pregnant and panicking every step of the way. Thank you so much for sharing your story 💜
GOD BE WITH U ALWAYS AIMIE,AN TYSON!!! U BOTH ARE THE DEFINITION OF LOVE! UR STRENGTH IS GOD SENT! I ADMIRE U BOTH SO MUCH,AND I AM SO PROUD OF HOW BEAUTIFUL U BOTH ARE FOR SHARING THE BLESSING OF BECKETT♡♡♡
I love you Aimee. Talking about Beckett after birth triggered me, but it speaks my part of my birth story. I wish I had allowed myself to love on him more, but I could see him deteriorating. My beautiful pink baby was pale, cold, and my love was speeding it up. Thank you for speaking for us when some of us choke up and can't find the words.
Oh girl... you're so strong. Thank you for being so honest...so open. For sharing this painful and emotional heart wrenching period in your life. Beckett will always be your baby. You will always carry the beautiful memories you made with him..after birth and from the time of conception. God be with you and may he always hold all three of your hearts in his hand. I'm so do sorry but remember Beckett came to teach you about this aspect of life Beckett also knows how much you both have grieved his passing. You both are such beautiful people. once again thanks again for allowing all of your Facebook family to share in your amazing but painful story. God bless you today and always!!
love that u told your story I work with somone who went threw what u did and it helps me understand how she feels I just want to reach threw the screen and give u a big hug ❤❤❤❤
This is a beautiful story Aimee. I'm glad you shared it! Big hugs on your journey! So brave of you to speak out. Even against those who say you shouldn't! I agree that you should be allowed to talk about your beautiful boy anytime you want or need to! Hugs to you guys. - Melissa
Gosh i just want to hug you and not let go. If it helps any your videos truly remind me to not take even the smallest thing for granite with my little ones. I wish your pain upon no one and i pray so hard that your heart gets a tiny bit of peace.
You are so strong and brace for sharing this story and your journey with us. This must be so hard for you and I am so sorry that a couple so sweet and loving had to go through this. I hope you know we are all so proud how strong you are and it was not your fault you had to get an epidural, remember that. You needed to do what was best for your son and you to make sure you were okay. I'm so sorry for your loss, and I'm so happy you have a great family that can support you and help your grieving process. this story breaks my heart so much and to see you cry, you should be able to take as much time as you need. I love you, stay strong! 💖💖
Thank you for sharing your birth story with us. After i had my first two children and before i had my miscarriages the birth stories in the parenting magazines were always my favourite to read but after my miscarriages and then fortunately a healthy baby. I found it was very rare to find a story about miscarriage or still birth and I think it would be better to be more open so people know they are not alone. Sending you love💙💙💙
+Tracy Davies Now that I'm in these communities, I'm hearing more stories. But before you find these forums, it's a lonely world. I wish more women felt that they could speak out.
I've watched your vlogs for awhile and I've got to say you guys are the strongest people I know. I am so sorry for your loss, I know it's said a million times but you two are still amazing parents. 💕 prayers and thoughts your way
I'm very sad for Becket First video watched was on the night you went to the hospital and how devastated I felt and so sad still tonight. Becket was adorable. You did a great job. I wish he was still here with you. I'm so sorry sweetie.
Very emotional video, watching it reminds me of my son who I lost at birth. Thanks for sharing your story. I've only been following you for a little bit now, and I just want to say, you are very strong and an amazing woman
cried a lot during this video 😭😭😭 i admire you so much. you are so beautiful and strong and i hope i can be like you when i'm older. you're truly amazing 💕💕💕😭
I've not experienced loss like yours but I am so happy that the Waters' videos are helping you. They have had so much negative feedback. I know sharing is helpful. I hope they know that and keep sharing for people like you. (hugs) xoxo
thank you for sharing with us. I just want to hug you! you are so strong and such an inspiration that having natural emotions is ok. You and Tyson really have warmed large part of my heart forever. I think about all of you daily.
I watch so many of your vlogs and I think about what a beautiful woman you are inside and out. And Beckett is just like his Mom. Your birth story was so moving
I came across your volgs and I was touched,,,,my heart was sad as I watched you go through a time in your life that will leave a mark in your heart for life....such a heartbreaking journey you. took toghter ...but you found in your hearts the joy ,that your precious little boy had to give and made memories that will last a lifetime ....Thank You for shareing ...😓
Aimee what a powerful birth story, I am also adopted and understand when you where talking about Beckett being your first blood relative. Stay strong, I am praying for you and Tyson.
i want people to know my babys, all of them, that all of them lived even if some of them just lived inside of me... but im alone on this over hear. no one will talk to me about it not even my husband... and im lost and depressed and alone and i cant breath i cant... and i watch you and your video's help alot and i cry. lord i cry and cry and cry... but you still help... and even though I'm lost and barely making it, you, your video's help and thats alot.
Thank you very much for shearing you birth story ! Beckett is real, is your son and he will always remembered and cherished !!! I will always remember him as I will remember my brother who was born still at 39 weeks by doctor's mistake ...
I lost my baby at 17 weeks and 5 days.. Basically went through the same thing u did.. God bless you and your gorgeous son 👼🏻💙 I loved having my daughter with me constantly. I miss her so much. I lost her back in September. She was due March 16th, 2017.
Hey Aimee and Tyson, I was wondering how you two have experienced this awareness month in regards of your mourning proces? You have my deepest respect for sharing your and Beckett's story. I have not experienced miscarriages, stillbirth or even pregnancy for that matter, but knowing your story makes me feel that as a social worker, I am more capable to listen to stories like yours in a respectful matter. Thank you.
WatersWife Vlogs its been 2 years now and i think about it every single day. But its okay. God doesnt put us through anything he knows we cant handle. im also sorry you had to go through it too. its the worst thing ever.
I had the balloon too... it was the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. its actually kind of nice to hear another woman say it was horrible for her too like it kind of confirms that I wasn't being dramatic about how bad it hurt if that makes sense.
I love you guys so much! Thank you for designing the shirts I love mine so much! I rocked mine today I had so many compliments on it today!! #Give Back For Beckett
Aimee you did such a beautiful job with your birth story. Thank you so much. I know how very hard this was to do but your story is so meaningful to so many. Love you Sweet beautiful girl!
You are a beautiful person and you have shared a beautiful story. Beckett was born just before my boy, im sooo so thankful i have my little man, i can only imagine the pain that will stay with you both forever. Im so glad you've shared this, the statistics are too high for still birth, its something i very much feared during my pregnancies, and something that really does need to be shared ❤
+Jen And Zoe Only 1% of pregnancies will result in stillbirth. Are you worried about the 25% that end in miscarriage? Either way, I'm grateful you beat the odds.
thank you, and i did mean still birth, although numbers for miscarriage are a lot higher. i think its something like 3000 births a year here in Australia are still births, or 1 in 135 births results in stillbirth.. even if thats a small percentage, that number is massive! whether its 30, 300, or 3000, that is a lot of families effected! 😓.
hi thank you for sharing your story you are so very strong and I know Beckett knows that he is you sweet angel always I am hoping and praying that I can get my business off the ground so I can give to help people like you God bless you always Holly
Hi waterswife vlogs, thank you for posting your story. I have watched your videos and especially appreciate you showing us your family and your son Beckett's birth and his beautiful body. I am currently 22 weeks and am most likely getting induced this Wednesday, January 4th 2017, and will give birth to my beautiful daughter Rose. She is being taken away too soon due to CDH, a birth defect that has severely affected her lung development. I feel for you. I hope you are grieving well. I am scared of the induction process and how I will grieve. My husband and our families are very supportive. Thank you once again for this video. xo
+BeautifulDreamer2 I am so sorry to hear your news about Rose. It's just not fair. You're a tough mama. You're going to get through the induction. And I'm not going to lie to you, you'll probably go into shock. You'll feel waves of grief and they'll come quick and strong. But as time continues, the waves will slow, but they'll still flow. Please know you're not alone. I'm glad you have a good support system at home. Make sure you find the fb groups too. I'm so sorry
Thank you for your sympathies. Our daughter was born on January 7th and died peacefully with us 20 minutes after her birth. I was blessed to have had a chance to feel her warm body, to kiss her, to bless her and pray with her and my husband. She is our first born child, and we will never forget her.
BeautifulDreamer2. I lost my baby 18 years ago and even though the void is still there the pain of the loss has long faded. Your pain will fade with time too. I don't mean that to sound cold and callous.....I mean it as encouragement. God bless you sweetheart! I pray that He will surround you in His love and carry you thru this painful time
