At 2230 lastnight a beautiful baby girl was born at home into her fathers hands. Such a beautiful birth.
I walked into the house that night to be greeted by a smiling, completely dilated, very much at peace, laboring woman. As long as I have been helping women become mothers, this still astounds me.
I'm not sure why. Maybe due to years of watching women birth in a hospital, not in peace. As much as they should be aloud to do so I just don't see it often granted to the women who choose to birth in a hospital.
