Last year I was able to capture the peaceful home water birth of this sweet little boy. His mama is a doula herself as well as childbirth educator and co-founder of BabyLove. Along with midwife Aly Folin and her team from North Star Midwifery, this baby was greeted by dad,big-sister, grandma, an aunt and friends.
Things I loved about this birth:
- The look of peace on mom’s face as she labored in the tub
- Dad supporting mom in labor – even getting in the birth tub himself
- Pictures of the baby being born into the water and emerging from water into his mom’s arms
- Mom’s face after the birth
- The delight on big sister’s face when his saw her brother
Thank you to Brittany and her family for inviting me to share in such a special day!
