Woman Live-streams The Birth Of Her Son On YouTube And Over One Million People Watched

It may be a deeply private moment for many – but one mum filmed the entire birth of her first child for the world to see. Sarah Stevenson – better known as YouTuber Sarah’s Day – has so far shared the arrival of her son with over a million viewers.The first-time mum, from Sydney in Australia, welcomed Fox Ocean Tilse on March 29. Sarah, 26, broadcast the entire 30-hour labour – including contractions and delivery – in a video titled BIRTH VLOG! Raw & Real Labour & Delivery Of Our First Baby! Viewers first see her at the beginning of the vlog relieving her mild contractions by bouncing on a gym ball. Sarah enlisted her boyfriend Kurt, a filmmaker, and sister Emily, who is a midwife, for support when she eventually travelled to hospital.After 30 hours she was only 5cm dilated, and she asked for an epidural to help her with the pain. In the last part of the 25-minute video she is seen pushing before welcoming her newborn. It has been viewed more than 1.3million times with many subscribers praising her for giving them an emotional and honest insight into childbirth.One fan wrote: “This was probably the most raw emotional video I’ve ever watched on YouTube. I’ve never actually cried during a video until this one. What an incredible journey. It’s crazy how much love goes into birthing a child. You are such a strong human being and this video really shows the extent of it. Thank you for making this video!”Another commented: “If I ever get pregnant I’m showing this video to my man so he knows exactly how to act. Kurt was incredible.” A third shared: “I really felt that. It’s overwhelmingly raw and honest and I have definitely cried.”Photo Credit: Getty
