Vancouver Home Birth First Baby

This is dad checking out his daughters head in a mirror before she was born. With every push his smile would grow bigger and bigger.

Then the moment he catches his daughter and places her on her on mom’s chest.

My favourite shot … “you said natural childbirth was awesome.”

Checking to see that she is really a girl.

Happy asleep on her mom.
