Leo’s Gentle Birth | 20 minutes of pushing, 10lbs, no tearing, at home surrounded by fur babies

“There he was, our son Leo Mattheus, suddenly, on my belly. My belly that held him, my belly that connected us for all of these months. He was finally here, on the other side – earth side. His beautiful open eyes that had just met mine, his incredible vernix spread all over his beautiful, healthy, long, 10 pound body.”
