ToJesusMyHeart Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 (edited) A baby born in the "caul", or amniotic sac, is obviously rare. Having it photographed? Even more rare. This is from a twin birth, with one of the babies born completely inside its bag of waters! Amazing! Credit to photographer Leilani Rogers. She is friends with the midwife who delivered this baby, Heather, from Central Texas Birth Center. Edited July 8, 2013 by ToJesusMyHeart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToJesusMyHeart Posted July 8, 2013 Author Share Posted July 8, 2013 yuck Birth is beautiful! I even cropped this image to leave out the more graphic parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgiiMichael Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Birth is beautiful! I even cropped this image to leave out the more graphic parts. Everyone can agree that the concept of birth is beautiful. Birth in action is messy and kinda gross. And definitely not for the faint of heart. While I don't mind it, a thread like this should probably be indicated in the title, because not everyone expects to see such pictures, and of those, not everyone will be comfortable or okay with such pictures. Especially if they don't know what "caul" is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elizabeth09 Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 Thank you for even sharing this. Even when my brothers and sisters were being born, I thought that everyone came that way. Now that I know more ways that a baby can come, this is very new to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabriela Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I don't understand how the baby breathes in there. I mean, what, are we amphibious until we're born? Obviously I don't know much about these things. Anything, really... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
