12 Raw, Emotional Photos of a Real C-Section Birth

As a delivery photographer, I like capturing all kinds of births, however particularly cesarean births. These mamas are among the strongest, most lovely ladies I work with. Cesarean mamas are sometimes restricted in what they’ll see throughout surgical procedure so my images are the one means they’ll see how their child got here into the world.

Bree, a outstanding doula in Denver, went into spontaneous labor every week earlier than her due date. Due to well being points and a persistently breech child, Bree wanted a C-section to soundly delivery her child. She gave delivery on the similar hospital the place she works, so her nurses and suppliers knew and beloved her properly. We all arrived on the hospital as she started to get prepped to return into the working room. The OR was stored dim, music performed, and everybody sang “Happy Birthday” when child Hudson was born.
