These are incredible. When the body works as it was meant to its so bloody awesome.

The va**na is cool. And if you've tried to avoid thinking too hard about what it takes to push a baby through such a small opening, don't worry. These photos show you in incredible detail. https://cafemom.com/parenting/205728-raw_birth_photos_crowning?utm_source=facebook_photo&utm_medium=sm&utm_content=littlethings&utm_term=text_photo

Aren’t we so bloody amazing!

“Kissing your baby changes your breast milk. Did you know that the undeniable urge to cover your baby in kisses serves a biological purpose? When a mother kisses her baby, she samples the pathogens on baby’s face, which then travel to mom’s lymphatic system. Mom’s body then creates antibodies to fight those pathogens, which baby receives through breast milk. What?! Amazing, right?”

This is beautiful- everything that birth should be. But it’s not the only type of birth you can have, it doesn’t make it more right than a c-section or a hospital birth, it’s just one image if beautiful.

Some women feel safe at home, others at hospital others need help and all are ok. The one thing that can be common and used in all is hypnobirthing. Hypnobirthing helps to keep your adrenaline levels low and oxytocin high which is the perfect mix for labour.

This is a great image showing what happens to a baby’s head when being born. Our body’s and their heads are perfectly made to pass through the north canal. I don’t believe in the term baby is too big.

I love this post. We all A’s new parents crave sleep and I love the snooze pods but not for sleeping in at night. Great for day time naps on the floor never a raised surface, and I’m all for co sleeping but just in your bed, don’t put extra items in with you. This lady explains the danger in a great understandable way.
