Honestly, I found the whole thing...odd.
- She looked ridiculous in that black hoodie
- the connection between her and Kurt is so...superficial. He was doing his best to be kind and supportive but it was like he was scared.
- Sarah was more connected to her sister, embraced her, wanting the back rubs from her. She actually told Kurt "don't touch me" while both Em and he were rubbing her.
- the vibe in the room was culty with the hillsong music
- Even mid labour when she clearly wants it she is demonising the epidural. Em helped her over her own illogical mental block and then spent the rest of the time telling her it was the right move
- we skipped a big patch of time from epidural in to pushing...what happened in there. Did she just lay around for an hour or so? If that's the case, put a note in about it...be honest!
- the position she was in pushing looked SO uncomfortable and inefficient, I don't know why her team didn't shift her so she could push more effectively.
Then lastly, I hate that I think this...but the emotion she showed when she felt him and then pulled him on her chest, seemed to be a bit fake. Like I believe she was emotional, but some of the outbursts or moments when she said "I can't believe this is real" or "I love you so much" came across as bad acting to me.
Any other mother in this moment I wouldn't think twice about these emotions, but we have watched Sarah lie and act for the camera for so long that I can't help but think she embellished the moment for her vlogs sake. After all, she was fully aware what her plans for this footage was, she was planning about having this recorded the moment she was trying to fall pregnant.
TLDR: I thought it was a bit boring, odd emotions, stupid hoodie, bad acting at times.
