a music video of your birth

This might be the next big thing since the Super 8 wedding vids.

(couldn't embed the actual video here).

A gorgeous end to the Walk to 40 weeks series on Pacing the Panic room. Such a pretty memory from their son's birth and the music is spot on. Keep in mind this woman has been in labor for 50+ hours. And she still looks completely beautiful and in control to the very end. Maybe I DO need a home water birth for the next babe? Or perhaps a doula who is very skilled with the video camera.

I don't think I looked anything like this. More like a very freaked out rodeo horse. I shall file this away as inspiration, at the very least.

I saw that awhile ago and watched it like 50 times in a row. Totally inspirational and makes me a little sad I won't be doing that again....not that I looked anything like that either!!

Amazing right? I had a planned home/water birth but ended up having to be at hospital. Realizing theres no way I would have looked like this after 50 hrs of labor! Come on!! Will tell you story when I see you at yoga! Thinking we will be there next week!!

I feel like that would just end up as a super 8 video of me cursing at people.

Well. I guess super 8 videos don't have SOUND, so that's good.
