Midwife Lisa Mare Oxenham from California recorded the beautiful final moments of this home water birth involving one of her clients. The labor had lasted 4-5 hours prior to the footage in this video. At the final moments, it all happened very quickly. The emotional reaction of the parents to the arrival of their new child shows the powerful intimacy that was achieved with this particular method of birthing.
