Peaceful Home Birth | Jackie Dives Birth Photographer
10/16/2013
When I arrived at this home birth Mama was playing the piano. The mood was peaceful, with candles lit and soft music on in the background. Mama was surrounded by love. Her partner, her doula, and two of her sisters were there, caring for her.
Her strength brought tears to her sister's eyes.
