I posted a slide show video of Brooklyn’s birth on Facebook a while back, but now I finally have the real video ready. It’s mostly pictures, but with a little video footage. The video footage didn’t turn out as good as I had hoped because it was so dark in the room. Thankfully I had the very talented Crystal Pikering there to capture the birth with her high quality camera and amazing skills. Not many people can get pictures as sharp as these with no flash and in such a dark room. Here’s the video.



















That was so beautiful. Thanks for sharing. My sister just birthed her 6th child last week – she has done home water births for 4 of the kids, and a birthing center water birth for this most recent little guy (they have to go to a birthing center depending on what state in which they reside). Such a beautiful thing.
Thank you so much for sharing that incredible video. You are such an inspiration.
I am trying to type thru eyes filled with tears, tears of joy for you and your precious family, I love you all so much <3
That was so beautiful! Thank you for sharing it! I especially loved when your husband was helping to deliver the baby (I think that’s what he was doing anyway). It was so sweet. Did you use a doula? I’d love to know! I’m planning a hospital birth for my twins, but want to go natural with a doula there to support my husband and I. (aejamba@hotmail.com)
Beautiful.
You were too perfect before this! Now what?!
That was lovely. Brought back memories from my own home birth.
Hi,
I have been reading your blog for a few months now. I just love all of your posts! This post and video was extremely inspiring because I look forward to doing the same thing when I give birth to my baby girl in June. This is my first birth, so I pray it goes well. Thanks for such an awesome blog!
Such a beautifully done video. This inspires me to let our kids be more apart of it, although I’m not quite sure how to approach that with our older boys…
Beautiful video, I love the picture you posted too – absolutely captures the moment.
Crystal, THIS IS SO AMAZING!!! Oh my gosh, I started crying! You are amazing to be able to do this, and you’re so lucky you’ll always have this video
What a CUTE family you have too. You’re newest edition is beautiful!
Thank you for letting me be there to photograph such an amazing experience! You are an amazing woman and mom and wife!!!! Thank you so much for this opportunity.
That was such beautiful footage and I love the music. That was amazing!
