I had all five of my kids at home, so I don't have the comparison myself, but I did attend my oldest daughter's birth of her first son and it was intense. The differences were so huge. I was so thankful for my homebirth experiences.
The photo in your post caught my eye. What a stunning, beautiful photo that captures the feelings that I still remember all these years later (my youngest just turned 17 this past week).
Lovely post, great writing and so much genuine... you shines through. Love it!
Thank you so much! Way to go, Mama!
