Baby Week - Paralyzed & Pregnant, Part 2

[yoooootuuuuubeful]

Why wouldn't they just do a cesarean?

[annayoshida]

Her husband is so sweet....

[DeansLady88]

Where's the rest?

[OCBfosho]

HES NOT EVEN LIKE BAD LOOKING

[fl0zz13]

well if you think about it, it's a actually quite smart because as she's paralyzed she can't feel any pain as the baby is coming out so therefore everyone's happy.

[BakBro1945]

@fl0zz13 how will she push?

[BakBro1945]

@fl0zz13 how will she push? oh nevermind, and yes she did feel pain

[zelda5553]

what an incredible story :)

[jiujiu]

They got a divorce. So much for all that "great husband" and "true love" crap most of you are spouting.

[WelakaWombat]

@jiujiu She was bitchy, for the most part nasty and he took most of her evil spouting off.. I would have left the gimp too

[huhhhhh15]

wow this is sad because she appeared on TV again and that time they were DIVORCED but her son was a beautiful boy :)

[Tyannalyn]

@huhhhhh15 Really?

[huhhhhh15]

@Tyannalyn yes :( she appeared on TV again recenlty(few months ago) and she was divorced :( but her son came over few days a week but he lives with his dad

[scarlettbildhauer]

wow congrats. It's amazing that they can start a family together

[WonderWomanFan4life]

wow she did it.

[TheBellaTenenbaum]

Wow what an amazing woman!

[meeryeem]

respekt for this parents and god bless

[palebluedot]

That man deserves a parade.

[amandakilgore198909]

this couple is sooooo incredable. inspiraring ( that was so spellled wrong but whatever) they will be wonderful parents congrats

[TheAngelOfSorrow]

i find it amazing how her lipstick stayed on so well through this.

[yadi5490]

he is a handsome man..

[shemh03]

You are a strong and amazing couple. You inspire me.

[shortcutelovable1]

congrats mommy :) your amazing.

[luckybear3822]

I sure as hell wouldn't let a camera man from a tv show be in the delivery and film me giving birth. lol

[whalewatcher321]

wait... how?....how? she pushed the baby out??? i thought she was supposed to be paralyzed......

[lesleyhenriquez]

@whalewatcher321 Watch the first part. She feels below her injury, so she can push.

Not as good as somebody else probably, but still.

[Hans021220]

What a wonderful video!Congratulations on your babyboy!

[sassywheels]

Does anyone have any idea what the name of the celing lift is that Michelle uses?

[Shee1988]

Good for you being able to be there for your son! You are a wonderful mother and I'm sure in the near future you will be able to relearn how to walk again. :) God bless you!

[spoilsensation]

awwww congrads yougot me crying

[floare79]

WOW, So beautiful and touching to watch

Thanks for posting. Makes me be greatful for the simple things in life that I take for granted. thank you

[Mitsy1212]

If you viewed the update on last night's show, it shows Michelle's son who is now 4 yrs. old and she and Peter are now divorced. Although he was interviewed, he claims that the divorce had nothing to do with her disabilities, but I find that hard to believe. Now she's thinking she can find another guy to snag via internet dating. Good luck w/that. Few men would take on that job or they would bail like her husband did. She needs to realize that that is asking too much of someone.

[Lizzieloco2]

@Mitsy1212 You are completely right, I mean man nowadays want a women who is young, and doesn't have kids. She is in her forties right now, she has a son, and is paralyzed, I completely agree that she is asking for way too much of a man, I just hope she can find someone.

[97karenlacey]

@Lizzieloco2 Way to much of what? Love committment, devotion. Does being disabled make her less worthy of having a man love her. I think her paralisis is not that extreme. I have seen many wheel chair bound people married. have you heard that joke right." She must really hate to work Look Who She Married." or "Can you believe he married her?" People take lovers, then other do a double take when they find out. "YOu mean your with him/her?" Jaw Drops.. :)

[kohoutekdriver8]

@Mitsy1212

How do you know her husband bailed? Maybe she wanted him to leave, or it was a mutual decision, or there's something about their relationship that you know nothing about?

[Mitsy1212]

@kohoutekdriver8 And how the hell do you know anymore about it than anyone else? When you put your life on youtube, you're going to get comments (good & bad) and a LOT of speculation. My theory is as plausible as yours so stuff it.

[lesleyhenriquez]

@Mitsy1212 He married her when paralyzed and divorced her when paralyzed. I think her condition does not have that much to do with the divorce.

More with the stress of having to take care of a child AND a wife, and the wife whining about it too much.

[97karenlacey]

@Mitsy1212 So many people divorce, that is no reason to count her out. Men are not that shallow. There are men that like BIG women, small women, thin , dark and everything else. Every person comes with issues. Often times the more beautiful/handsome the partner = drama. There is no perfect mate.

[jerrellknox]

Everybody deserves a life as normal as possible! Yes, she's paralyzed but that's unfortunate. I have spinal bifida and I too, want a wife and kids someday! & Believe you me, I'm not gonna let anything stop me!

[luckybear3822]

@jerrellknox Spina bifida

[jerrellknox]

@luckybear3822 ok thanks for the correction. that was a minor mistake.

[luckybear3822]

@jerrellknox ;] no prob. Some people have never heard of it so I was just clarifying the name of it. I'm sorry to hear about your Spina Bifida.

[GalacticGod666]

Yeah, mother of the year, this one...let's have a baby we can't take care of. I sympathize with the condition of her paralysis, but c'mon now...

[luckybear3822]

@GalacticGod666 What makes you so sure that they can't take care of it?

[dappledbaybeauty]

@GalacticGod666 yes exactly that baby now is subject to a mother who can not hug ect I Understand she wants to have a baby but Its more selfish then anything I think becuse that baby is not going to have a compleate normal baby and she is putting that life to risk when she did not have too.

[jerryaltman]

She will need help, but can be a better mom than many of those bitchs that do not care about the baby.

I hope medicine advance with steam cells research, and injuried people can back to walk again.

[baddmaddogg]

What kind of a sick fuck would fuck a paralyzed chick??!?!?

[idiaitatisarkoudas]

@baddmaddogg Someone who loves her very much for what she is inside, obviously. And it is not "fuck", there are many more things in this world besides just sex you know.

[MidnightCascade]

Did she... concieve before or after she got paralysed? Cos if it was after she would have to have got IVF wouldn't she?

[Kayelle1980]

Not necessarily, it depends on the damage, but if it's spinal damage, her uterus/ovaries might be perfectly healthy. Her partner's not disabled as far as I can see, I would assume that they simply had regular sex and bingo.

[Roleplayer008]

@MidnightCascade Yes, it said so in part 1.

[danielle9074]

@MidnightCascade After. Way after, and conceive 100% naturally

[MyTwitterSpaceBook]

When I first searched this , I admit , I thought it would be gross, but after watching part and part 2. Im amazed, all i can say is, Life is wonderful . :')

[hollythekoolest]

wow thts amazing.

[SweetPearlyGems]

i wonder why there was no c section =I

[horseylover123]

because she didn't want it, but if she would have wanted it she would have had it done.

[cam97cullen]

o come on,tv paints everything like happiness and joy ,in what world do they live? in wonderland ,look what if somebody in the same conditions sees this ,he ,she or watever is can think this is easy and they may dye even in the proceedure.

[astrangeone]

How is she still able to bear down? That's the weird part. Oh well, guess she still has function in that area.

[WildKatSpeaking]

I have a C6 injury myself. It's a level below hers. Believe it or not you don't have to be able to "bare down" because once it's time for the baby to come your body works out what it's suppose to do and it just happens naturally. Of course if you CAN bare down it helps things along quite a bit.

[astrangeone]

Hmm.  Very interesting....I love watching these things.

Cervical 6, right? I'm in training for Therapeutic recreation, and it's a great field.

[catycatcat4]

guessing this was way longer on tv.

[SweetPearlyGems]

@catycatcat4 lol right =)

[Weisenheimer78]

ya know what else should be scary?  Just being a dad to a newborn.

[crabheart1]

amazing! such an inspiring story !

[PaniqBloosh]

:D awhh!

[imalittlechicky]

Huh why needa wheelchair??????

[ladyl916]

amazing

[uptilthesky]

I don't know why the media only shows happy stories. Very few are as well off as them, the ones I've met during volunteering work couldn't even afford a electric wheelchair, let alone a carer. If you're rich, a lot of things look possible, if you come from a poor family, you don't have many options, having a baby would be luxury.

[AILDgURL]

they only show stories that have a happy ending because it is illegal for them to show an actual death on t.v.

[donie716]

IM referering to show death histories, I know there is bad and ugly histories to tell and watch but I think We must show how is our daily live and in this way a lot of persons can see We are normal human persons with difficult activities on our lifes but ... with life. Thanks.

[LyeLye]

@AILDgURL Actually I have seen a show where they showed a stillbirth, they asked the parents what they wanted to do with the body and instead of taking home a baby they took home an urn. For some reason they were really calm about it... so calm i wanted to smack them.

[taljsl]

its called being in shock

[donie716]

Its not true but I think all this persons like me must do videos in which everybody can see We can live in a normal way, like other able body persons. Its much more diificult to do each actitvitie, yes but we can do them. thanks.

[uptilthesky]

sure, I just think stories showing how disabled people of less fortunate circumstances deal with the challenges of daily life and an independent living would be more inspirational. There aren't a whole of normal daily activities going on in this video, it's mainly about the pregnancy and the medical care required.

[LyeLye]

@uptilthesky Any story with a healthy baby in it is a happy story, Also most of the time if you have a disability in america government pays for everything. My dad and mom have an electric wheelchair sitting on their porch collecting dust cause my grampa got everything free and passed away.

[LyeLye]

@uptilthesky Also our family is poor, just saying we have to have government help to get by, I dont have it and I am pregnant and have not been to the hospital yet im 17 weeks 6 days pregnant, im hoping to get some help soon so that i can go to the hospital instead of having the baby at home in the hallway on the floor.

[taljsl]

ABORTION FTW

[LyeLye]

hopefully a women wont let you touch her...

[carlyyarosz]

wow. im just worried about how she would have the strength to push. wow again. amazing

[zeeab]

Wow how sweet!

[MsJennaNY]

Its so nice to see two people who love each other. For all those women who stay with their asshole husbands because they feel like they have no choice, look at this man and know you are ALL worth being loved no matter what disabilities you may have. Just remember you all have a choice.

[thandolakhe]

I wish there can be more people with such love to overlook the outside and be there and who knows God is a loving God and miracles do happen . I pray to God that He heals her so she can have a chance to play with her child. My baby's father has MS and he found out when I was already 5 weeks pregnant, life gets tough but love will always prevail and we shouldn't take life for granted.

[KatsRool4Ever]

Wow he must be a really nice guy to stay with her and the baby!!! ! :D

[traverslee]

Some of the ignorant comments disgust me. They can be just as good of parents as two able bodied people. My dad was injured while my mom was 9 months pregnant, he is in a wheelchair and he was the best father I could ever ask for. Nothing stopped him. He did everything from taking me to swimming lessons to "walking" me down the aisle on my wedding day.

[99Alexj99]

I'm with you! My dad had MS, my mother married him knowing he had it (was not that bad when they married) but by the time I was 3 he was in a wheelchair. I had a wonderful childhood, spent a ton of time with my dad as he was home with me. I would not change a thing. Sadly the MS took his life when I was 18 and I'll miss him when I walk down the aisle in 5 weeks.

[anasnaknota]

@traverslee you are very lucky to have a very responsible father ...not every able bodied father is as good as yours

[PlueDot]

@traverslee I cried at your comment, you have a beautiful family! People should learn that two able bodied parents are NOT perfect nor is it a fundamental building of a family tree.

God bless you and your family! [:

[webguy943]

@traverslee i can tell u r very knowledgable in that area cuz u said "able bodied"

[estedrawn]

im ignorant on this topic but, it seems like she was moving her arms.... so whats with that? does she just have limited spinal breakage or what?

[ahinrichs85]

Hi, i am a CNA/HHA as well as a student nurse. This woman appears to be a quadroplegic. Quadroplegics (paralized in the arms and legs)can have limited range of motion in the upper body but it will never be full range of motion like we have. Now if she was a paraplegic (paralized in the legs) she would definitely be able to have full range of motion in her upper body.

[UsAndThem435]

Now that is a very sweet story. That child will be so loved, theres no doubt eh?

[Alishondra]

All those people looking at your vagina O_o.. I would be emberassed as hell

[gshalom88]

God Bless her husband. Thats true love 4 real.

[Roleplayer008]

@gshalom88 XD why do you say that? Because he commited to her even though she was paralyzed?

[P4brains]

@gshalom88 there divorced Lol!

[rachelreading]

@gshalom88 Sorry to burst your bubble but they broke up.

[eneri80]

@gshalom88 I recently saw a follow up to this program and it was revealed that the couple is now divorced.

[karlizilla]

god bless her i also know what its like to go through many challenges I myself went through 4 years of kyphosis and then even 2 surgerys but i find this story very inspiring to me

[ellespeth]

i like their story...they inspires me!

[BostonRedSoxLifeLine]

your a dick, thats soo rude.

whats your problem.?

[gymnasterz10076]

wtf?! u ass hole

[miccakelove]

this is so inspiring..

god bless them!

[ConfessionalRose]

I just got married last year and my husband suffers from a severe case of Rhuemetoid artheritis which disables him like this woman. we also got pregnant the old fashioned way and it was a planned pregnancy and yesterday was my due date. I am sad that because of his twisted arms he will not be able to hold our newborn for some time but i love him and I will hold the baby against him as much as possible so that they can bond. I dont see it as a burden...I see it as love.

[trilogy11]

amazing.. congrats

[LeSquid]

Such a sweet father, such a brave mother!

[aalapalestineaala]

wooooow

this couple is amazinggg :)

[HeDoesNotLoveMe]

Wtf?

How Is He Stupid...And Don't Say Because He's Wasted His Life...Because If Youu Say That Then Youu Are Obviously Selfish!

[Chinqyeyes26]

that was super amazing....great story!!!

[pandalaura]

wow amazing.God bless her family

[DelIriSentA]

wow...this story is AWESOME!!! it really shows the strength of a woman (and of humans in general)

Not only is it wonderful she is having a baby "despite the complications" but that she really did it and managed to set her mind to delivering naturally and did it...WOW...she really loves her child and doesnt want to miss ANYTHING...what a wonderful mom!

yes yes please keep us updated!

[NCRebecca]

how does she have sex?

[Jelloyumyummy]

Same way any woman does

[wendykpa]

A very beautiful life story and I enjoyed it..

Definitely another one of God's wonderful miracles :)

I feel that every birth on the face of this earth has a reason and I can surely see that their child was blessed to have such beautiful parents of true heart.

God can/will heal the baby's mom also :)

Can you please keep us all updated?

God bless you both,

*wendy

[72Cinema]

sup bitch,

god is dead and taste the thunder

[creedstat]

how can she chase a baby around in a wheelchair?

[ummrania]

in her wheelchair obviously- she is a human mother, just because you cant imagine that you could handle it, doesnt mean that she cant or wont

[redkitten311]

hey creedstat how can you chase a baby around when you don't have any balls to make one?

[lottieprincess]

What!

[creedstat]

half truths

i have 3 and i am a waman

[Zeptorr]

Best comment so far, LOL

[19202024]

I wish you the best ,hope all off you are fine.Wish to see you guys now.

[lottieprincess]

So what! So am i! WHO CARES!

[Kauwhaka]

I also married a quadriplegic. We (she) has had 2 pregnancies, both "normal and natural" from start to finish. We just had our 17th anniversary and the "babies" are now 10 and 12 years old. I wouldn't change this for anything in the world.

[LipRouge]

Congrats!!!

[Nena22409]

Thisz isz a bleszinq...God Blesz Her and da baby..

[MusicontheBrain247]

she's married, didn't you watch the first part?

[lottieprincess]

How can you say that! You obviously have no care in the world for other people. She's not old, and yeah she's paralyzed but SO! Dosnt mean she cant have a child! Some people have no manners and no idea what they go through. How would you feel if you was like her! ? :@

[1236w31236w3]

God truly blessed them

[jcrouch702]

i feel sorry for that guy...he has to take care of his wife and now a baby...

[Kauwhaka]

Why feel sorry? Maybe you are not suited to that sort of life style, maybe lots aren't. But some are. And for them, love will make miracles.

[leonnie94]

May God shower his blessing on this family :)

[horsechick05]

I agree. This is beautiful!! Congrats on a job well done and for all your courage!

Oh and by the way...

Dr. Hoover is one of the doctors that I work with in my Office!! GO DR. HOOVER!!! :-)

[poohara]

I think this is very beautiful i work with disabled people and its sad to say that most of them never get to experience love or having a family ...im glad that she has a good man that supports her and love her no matter what..DAMN i need a man like that ...lol

~god bless~

[gaiagale]

I am humbled by your courage. ...thank you for sharing these moments. ...and reading the comment I am very aware of the understanding, compassion, and appreciation that you have inspired by sharing. Thank you

[gricel84]

that is love, what a great man

[meliyely]

how did she get pregnant????

[gladitsnotme]

How old are you? Take a health class, learn about these things: reproduction, uteri, spermatozoa, and menses. It's how women get pregnant :)

[avegyrl08]

she is a very courageous woman with an amazingly supportive husband. God..... I admire her... and Im a bit jealous in a way lol

[Xdancinchica12X]

[princessmarthajandio]

That was a beautiful story.
