    Beautiful photos, but I thought they were a bit too personal to share? I guess I'm different, my DD's birth was sacred to me and I don't show the photos to anyone besides my partner.

    Congratulations on a beautiful birth.

      they are beautiful and I applaud your open sharing of image as well as story.

      "sacred" means different things to different poeple, and I am grateful for those who bring such graphics to light.

      it looks like you all had a wonderful time, and you older son is tremendous!

      Ann, thank you for sharing your opinion and I'm glad that your birth was so powerful. If you look at the collection of photos in this tribe, mine are far less intimate than most. I feel that the entire point of creating this tribe was to expose people to the power, joy and natural flow of home birth and what better way to do that then sharing our experience through telling our stories both verbally and visually. It's not for everyone, but for those who do come to this tribe seeking support and wisdom, I want them to feel like they are not alone in choosing this way to bring life forth and I will share my birth photos with anyone who wants and needs that support.
      Much love and thanks

      THANK YOU so much for sharing your beautiful birth images. They brought tears to my eyes!! There are so many negative images and thoughts out there surrounding Birth, that seeing these lovely, Peaceful images really does my heart good, and gives me hope for the upcoming birth of our daughter. I can't wait to see you in person and give you a big hug and kiss. Thank you for sharing : )
