Favorite Homebirth movie
Asher and I both love this movie. He would watch it over and over with me, if I let him. The second song makes me cry every time. I love this movie for 3 reasons:
1. All the support and love this Momma is surrounded by, including her other 2 children.
2. How peaceful and beautifully she labors.
3. How well the photographer and cinematographer capture the essence of her birthing experience.
We are praying for a similar birthing experience, although I want a few less people supporting....Just the midwife, doula, Andrew and Asher. (although if we had the money, I would definitely splurge on a cinematographer/photographer to capture the labor and birth) Hard to believe the birth is coming soon! Everyday Asher asks "baby born?!"
WARNING: for those who are squeamish or sensitive, there are 2 crowning shots

hi, I'm a friend of ruthie's from boston who periodically checks your blog as it's linked from hers. . . we had a homebirth for our first and are planning a second homebirth in december for baby no. 2. I agree that having my older son there is making this super special for me.

Brooks, this video was breathtakingly beautiful. Like you, the beauty of the moments captured along with the music brought tears to my eyes. I pray that you have the perfect, peaceful birth that you envision and that you and baby #2 are both healthy and happy! Can't wait to see more pics!
