Childbirth is an awe-inspiring and beautiful experience for many mothers, but a fearful one for others. Monet Nicole and Jennifer Mason of the organization Birth Becomes Her wanted to help people understand and celebrate birth, and encourage expectant parents, so they created a powerful video of women around the world meeting their babies for the first time.
“No matter where you give birth or how you welcome your baby into your life, your story is beautiful,” Nicole and Mason wrote on Facebook. It can be graphic — it is a human coming from another human, after all — but the range of emotions is stunning. Watch overjoyed parents meet their tiny, confused babies in the video below and let the tears flow.
The organization’s website also has a collection of birth photos from different photographers, giving you another look at this heart-warming moment between mother and child:
