This actually made me cry! Its so intense

This is amazing. But the placenta is grossing me out a bit. Never seen one look like that before

So serene..

Newborn has an eyes of an older soul...

Jesus. What's our society coming to?! That kid's WAY too young to be a parent.

Any one else worried about how blue that baby is?

Great neck control at just a few minutes old. The neck control comes weeks after birth. Strong baby.

He's gonna need a bigger visor...

I instantly regret ignoring the warning

To be shown to your teenager when given a hard time.

I had to look twice before I saw it, it is really beautiful.

I'm surprised there are no comments here. I had the strongest emotional reaction to this photo. The image of encircling and comforting arms and hands around the new life with the potential for the same encircling and comfort. This photo tells a great story.

Tears of joy x

'OK, she's screaming. Maybe this is how adults communicate. Odd, but I should be polite to my new hosts.'

Beautiful

He's still in the bag. Amazing!

Her face says it all

😍

That also happened to my son in law. He had several brain surgeries just to stay alive so he could see his daughter be born. He lived for 3 weeks after she was born.

Looks sci-fi

As a C-SECTION Mama, this made me cry. Due to the partition I wasn't able to see my son come into the world, and I can very much imagine his tiny newborn face on this little one. 😍 so precious!

❤

This is so awesome!

This one freaks me out...purely because it looks like just a head!

She is too airbrushed, it take away the realness

im guessing that watch must be waterproof

Those fishnet stretchy hospital panties with jumbo pad.. best feeling though.. once your here, you know you definitely passed the finish line!!

That placenta looks like a beautiful colorful tree

... well... if i saw this i wouldnt take a photo.. but.. whatever

Beautiful!

I like this one of all of them. I don't know why.

❤️

Those are really muscular legs! I don't understand why they are holding the baby's neck that way.

That's some astounding nails om that baby. Those are going to be beautifull

The only person seemingly aware of the camera is the baby!

Someone took the time to get ice tea 😉

This really reminded me of just how intense the pain was. Childbirth was much harder that I expected!

Adorable

Not sure if that is rapture or relief, but the photo is beautiful.

Yep...that's the appropriate reaction.

So beautiful, wish We could smell him and the others here as well.

love this!

The whites of her knuckles!

She's just realised she's got a screamer.

Labor...... just the beginning.

That's a powerful reason why you shouldn't yell at your mom! All the pain she passed because of you

I can feel her exhaustion!!!

Wow, hair and makeup on point! Kudos!

So she did.

Aww! This one makes me well up. How beautiful!

I love her partners face.. so concerned supportive and gentle !

Whats mature about nature ?

Impossible to forget

My son was born 30 days early. His cord was wrapped around 3 times around his neck, hence blue baby. He's 47 now, 6'8"....

I roared that hospital down..

Its called Vernix. It protects the baby from the amniotic fluid they swim in before birth

You do realize most, if not all of these, are taken by birth photographers right?

Lovely

It shows the determination of mothers before having the baby
